Section 1912 River Transportation(2/2)
There were thousands of technicians, and he later asked them to take some apprentices to install them, and each one installed a lot of them. Otherwise, there would definitely be a malfunction. Li never expected them to repair the motor, only
Just ask them to install them. I got hundreds of thousands of these things from the earth at one time. As long as they are broken, I can just repair them. At worst, just throw them away. One of these things can cost up to ten
It’s just 10,000 RMB. The money you earn for yourself every day comes back, so this little money is nothing.
Li Cong has also asked An Hai to help him to have a good time when he returns to the capital. There are too many shipping ships on the Yulan River. It is impossible for all 90,000 ships to come here even if they are fully operational. In the future, they
After seeing the benefits of river transportation, he will definitely join again. At that time, it will be even more insufficient. Only when the emperor approves this matter can we continue to increase the number of ships. Li Cong gave Anhai 5 billion silver in activity funds. It is estimated that things will
It should be easy to do.
The shipping on the Magnolia River is a very small income for the royal family. Now they can get 50% more income every year. I believe they will not refuse this thing. This is something that only a fool would refuse. I believe the royal family will not
Will refuse.
Western Empire. Wu Mansion. In the past, most people in the Western Empire probably didn’t know Wu Zuoxi, but it’s different now. Since the Tuoba clan’s rebellion was put down, the Wu Mansion can be said to have become
The most popular place in the entire empire, Wu Zuoxi seems to have replaced the Tuoba clan as the most powerful minister in the Western Empire. Naturally, he is not afraid of Wu Zuoxi's rise as emperor. Even if this guy is the most powerful minister, there is nothing wrong with him.
, because this guy only has some foundation on the top, and the bottom is empty. He has nothing at all. Another reason why the emperor reused him in this way is that this guy only has four daughters, and he has no sons at all, so he
He won't seek too much power for himself. In the end, this guy doesn't want everything he owns to become his son-in-law. This is something only a fool would do.
Dai Lin, the Cao family businessman in the Western Empire, entered the Wu Mansion as a guest today. He came here for two reasons. The Yulan River can be said to be the largest inland river in the Northern Empire. This Western Empire
There is also such a river, and that is the Red River in the Western Empire. The Red River is the largest river in the entire continent. No matter in any aspect, it is not comparable to the Magnolia River. The Red River can be said to run through the entire Western Empire.
There are thousands of provinces in the empire, and there are more than 300 main roads passing through the Red River. If you include the tributaries, there must be at least more than 500. The shipping on the Red River is also somewhat similar to that in the Northern Empire. They are all monopolized by a few big families.
After Dai Lin saw the development in the Northern Empire, he also turned his mind to this. This is what should be done.
Dai Lin had already managed some of the Cao family's business in dozens of southern provinces before. Bai Er's business was not as good as Dai Lin's. Dai Lin's expansion speed was several times that of Bai Er's, and he basically had to
He did much better than Bai Er. Of course, this was not just for personal reasons. It was also a very important reason why Bai Er did not have so many good shopkeepers. When Dai Lin came out of the mountain, he brought a large number of shopkeepers from the Dai family with him.
, they come out to do things, and their abilities are not comparable to ordinary people. It is normal for the current situation.
At first, Bai Er could only bring a total income of 4.536 billion silver to the Cao Family Commercial Bank every day. But after Dai Lin came here, he has expanded this number by more than ten times, and according to the current development, in a few months,
It can definitely reach twenty times. If we can get some Red River shipping, this number will be more objective.
Wu Zuoxi is no longer as incorruptible as he was at the beginning. At that time, this kid was also obsessed with revenge and wanted to become an upright official. But after becoming an official, especially after becoming the Minister of Civil Affairs and Military Aircraft,
This is different. There are really too many people looking for him to do things. This guy has a brain, but no one is perfect. This little money is nothing. The emperor also knows that this guy has no son, and there will be no other
It's his plan, even if his right-hand man has that little money, it won't be much.
If Dai Lin hadn't figured out the reason, he wouldn't have come in so rashly. This was a matter of losing his head. If this guy got him in because of taking bribes, he would be really unlucky. This year
It is no longer possible to sell the share on the Red River. What Dai Lin is interested in is next year. The transportation industry that Dai Lin has established in the south is still very good, but it mainly uses horse-drawn carriages to do some short distances.
For transportation, if this can be linked to river transportation, even long distances will be no problem. Although there are not many people going out in this society, the population base is here after all. Besides, it was also because of transportation problems in the past.
If the traffic problem were better, these people would definitely go out, and they are not fools.
"Sit down, I've read your plan, and it's really good. But if you want to put it into practice, I don't think there's much hope. How can you increase the transport capacity by more than five times? You know, even if you are the first
If all the money that should be paid is paid, if there is a problem with the transportation of the Red River, it will be a fatal disaster for the entire empire." Wu Zuoxi has read Dai Lin's plan, and frankly speaking, if this thing is true
If this is the case, it will be a very good plan for the entire empire and himself, but if the above things cannot be realized, he will have a problem with his head. After he suppressed the rebellion, the emperor continued to hand over power to
In his own hands, it was because the emperor believed that he would not become the second Tuoba clan, but other officials did not necessarily think so. Those elders who seemed to be laughing and joking with him were all his greatest
They are enemies, they are eager to find their flaws in themselves, and if they find them, they will definitely trample them to death.
"Master Wu, I actually don't need to say anything about this matter. Our trading company in the Northern Empire has already taken over the transportation of the entire Magnolia River. Now you can ask people to come over and take a look at the shipping there.
But it's going very well. Although only 50% of the original ships have started transporting, the things they transport are more than double that of all the original ships." Dai Lin said, he knew what Wu Zuoxi said.
The reason is that it is beneficial. This guy already knows what is going on in the Northern Empire. As the current first minister of the Western Empire, it would be strange if he does not know what is happening in the other surrounding empires.
"Haha, there are many differences between the Northern Empire and the Western Empire. I have also heard of your boss. You can say that in my eyes he is a person worthy of admiration. The Red River and the Magnolia River are also different.
The total shipping volume on the Red River is many times greater than that on the Yulan River. The entire Western Empire operates around the Red River. Everything for the people is closely related to the Red River. If there is even a little bit of improper operation, this matter can be serious.
It's a big deal, so I have to be careful and ask." Wu Zuoxi said with a smile, it said that as long as he can integrate all the antiques in Honghe, he can do nothing every year and get hundreds of dollars now.
Five out of five transportation stocks are involved. Wu Zuoxi also asked people to investigate because of this matter. Now the transportation on the Red River accounts for nearly 3.4 trillion silver every year, and there are millions of ships, belonging to more than a dozen major companies.
The family is really incomparable to the Yulan River. You can tell from the width and length alone. The flow of the Red River is hundreds of times that of the Yulan River. The widest place is more than fifty kilometers long.
The narrowest places are more than 20 kilometers long. Such rivers can only exist on such a planet. If there were such a river on the earth, it would probably be the sea.
"We all know that Master Wu works for the empire, so we naturally have to pay close attention to these things. We don't think about taking them all at once. We don't have the ability. We just hope that we can win them all at once."
If Mr. Wu thinks we can get a part of the current share, we can talk about the future." Dai Lin said with a smile. It is impossible for him to just make a plan and expect Wu Zuoxi to support him.
Wu Zuoxi also needs a certain basis for the matter. Just like what he said, this matter is not a trivial matter. If it is not handled well, it will affect the entire Western Empire.
"If that's the case, you can give it a try. That's good. I can't come up with any more for the time being. I'll give you 3,000 ships for the time being. These ships are all in my name. I can't convince them until they all see the effect.
Theirs." Wu Zuoxi actually agreed with Dai Lin's method in his heart, but he had not yet received his own benefits, so he agreed. This was absolutely not allowed.
Dai Lin thought about it for a moment, and it was not impossible. Even if this matter happened to him, he would not agree to it directly. He knew that Wu Zuoxi could be said to be an old fox, and he would never do it because of his few words.
He just agreed to this matter. It would be good to be able to approve three thousand. He knew that he had to show his sincerity at this time.
"Master Wu, we agreed before that as long as I can get this share, I will give you 5% of the previous annual income of these ships. I have seen all these ships and they can earn an average of
It's about 400,000 taels of silver. Five percent is 20,000 taels of silver. These 3,000 ships are worth 60 million taels of silver. Although the money is not a lot, it still has to be settled. I will ask someone to give the silver to them later.
Sent." Dai Lin said. In the past, he just talked without practicing. He thought he could solve this matter with his own tongue. But now it seems that is impossible. Wu Zuoxi must know this benefit.
That's okay. Sure enough, after Dai Lin finished speaking, Wu Zuoxi finally had a smile on his face.
"Haha, Manager Dai is really serious about his work. To be honest, my life is not easy now. There are too many people in the empire who disobey me. Everyone feels that I am relying on them when they get up.
Luck, in fact, who doesn't rely on luck? Most people are similar to me, but their background is better than mine. Now that His Majesty the Emperor believes in me, they still feel that they dare not take action, but if one day
His Majesty the Emperor doesn't believe me anymore, and my life may be very miserable, so I will start to manage it well during this time." Wu Zuoxi said with a wry smile, he also spent money in many places, some big families have
You need to find a way out for yourself, and all these ways out require money. Wu Zuoxi is not from a big family, so every penny he wants to spend must be made by himself. One of his big plans recently is
He has to rely on a lot of money. His monthly fixed expenses have reached an astonishing 700 million taels of silver. This is definitely not a brother-in-law to him, so Dai Lin's 60 million taels of silver is definitely a timely gift.
So that he can continue with his plan.
"Master Wu is joking. Who doesn't know that you are like this in the Western Empire?" Dai Lin raised his thumb and said, "Master Wu is too incorruptible. If you are like other officials, don't talk about this little money.
, even more money can be obtained. By the way, our boss heard that the fourth lady in the house is going to have her coming-of-age ceremony soon, so we also prepared a gift for her. We inquired privately about the fourth lady.
If you like Beihai Hanyu, please help me pass it on." There is definitely a reason to give gifts to these people, but the gift must also be rare and luxurious, just like the one now, Dai Lin's hand is as big as a palm.
A piece of thing, this is Beihai Hanyu. If you carry this thing with you, you can keep up with the calmness of a magician. Such a good thing is definitely priceless. Wu Zuoxi often travels in and out of high society, so he naturally knows about this thing.
The value is definitely more than the 60 million taels of silver notes that will be given to me next. The baby himself is quite a lot, but the one in front of him can definitely be said to be the best thing in his warehouse. What about his little daughter?
Like, everyone will like this kind of thing.
"Your boss is so polite. A little girl's adult gift is nothing. How can such an expensive gift be used on such a festival? Don't do this next time, otherwise I won't accept it."
Wu Zuoxi's eyes were almost smiling, but he still had to say that. If he didn't say that, he would be no different from a corrupt official.
When he came out of Wu Mansion, Dai Lin got 3,000 ships in operation. Basically, this recent result is enough. If there are more, he will definitely not be able to get them. The main reason is that the motor mentioned by his boss does not seem to be good.
So easy to install.
Thanks to the efforts of Dai Lin and the shopkeepers of the Dai family, the transportation network developed by the Dai family in the Western Empire is actually more complete than that developed by Li Cong in the Northern Empire. Li Cong is a lucky man. In fact, when it comes to doing what he says,
This guy is not that good at such things as buying and selling. His biggest advantage is to make money with what he knows and what others don't know. If he can't make money like this, he is simply a fool and doesn't know what to do.
Having said that, Dai Lin does not have such a big advantage. Every bit of development depends on himself. He also spent several times more time and money than Li Cong.
Regarding the transportation on the Red River, Wu Zuoxi did not go out to see Dai Lin off. He looked at the Red River and fell into deep thought. There were millions of ships on the Red River. Many people looked at this place as a piece of fat. It was similar to the situation on the Magnolia River.
Yes, it will be no problem if we continue to increase the number of ships. For their own profits, they would rather let the empire's economy not advance and ensure their own profits. If they take action on them, their lives will not be easy. The opposition
Very powerful.
But thinking about the Beihai Hanyu and the 60 million taels of silver that I just got, I can take a risk and gamble. If I miss such a thing, I may never have the opportunity in the future. I must seize this opportunity.
Yes, anyone would think about running away on their own. Thinking of this, Wu Zuoxi took out his paper and pen, and he began to calculate various data bit by bit. This is what this kid is best at. Putting all the data together
