Chapter 304 The profits of the station! Second update!

The post station is equivalent to a modern post office. The primary purpose of the Song Dynasty was to receive and deliver military information.

Wu Zhi is preparing to let the people of the Ministry of War to create a new station model across the country.

It's similar to the express delivery now.

In other words, as long as Wu Zhi is transformed, the station can not only convey military information, but also convey goods for consignment.

In ancient times, transportation was inconvenient, so this aspect was relatively scarce. Wu Zhi had to establish a model to commercialize it.

This will bring the profits to the treasury every year very objective.

The post station belongs to the Ministry of War. It is precisely because it wants to create something new and it is also the reason why Wu Zhi wants to promote Li Gefei. He needs his own people, and the promoted people naturally have to be loyal to him.

Li Gefei is a small official, and when he is promoted like this, he will naturally be grateful to him. In addition, Li Qingzhao is his sister, so the candidate for Li Gefei is very good.

Only in this way can he follow him wholeheartedly.

The kindness is too great.

Of course, building a brand new station also costs money, and many details need to be handled well.

Wu Zhi called Li Gefei, Minister of War today, took out some drawings and his own model and told Li Gefei, and asked him to do it.

If this matter is handled well and benefits are generated, that is a great achievement.

Moreover, Wu Zhi and Li Gefei's frequent contacts mean to tell everyone that Li Gefei is his King of Yan, so don't blame him for being rude if he dares to move.

When Li Gefei heard the thoughts, he was stunned: "King Yan, is this really OK?"

This is a relatively complex project. It has established freight stations across the Song Dynasty and charged fees to connect the surrounding boundaries. This not only facilitates the people of the Song Dynasty, but also allocates materials in all aspects, which has led to a more developed economy in the Song Dynasty.

Just to establish this kind of model thinking is very important. He heard what Wu Zhi said, and at first he was confused. Finally, after he understood, he sighed that Wu Zhi's mind didn't know what to think, and could come up with such a subtle detailed pattern.

Don’t underestimate a station model, it’s also very complicated. People who can’t figure it out can’t do it at all.

The management, including how to ship goods, opening up lines, accepting orders, charging fees, and other series of cumbersome details all require mind.

Wu Zhi smiled and said, "Of course!"

Wu Zhi is a modern person, but unfortunately there is no computer here, no online sales model, and transportation is inconvenient. Otherwise, if such a model was established in ancient times, it would be crazy to make money.

Even so, it is very profitable.

Most of the post stations in the Northern Song Dynasty were conveying military information and transporting envelopes, and many of them were not external.

What Wu Zhi needs to do is to reform this model.

Wu Zhi quickly reported this idea to Emperor Huizong of Song. Emperor Huizong of Song heard that the post station could make money after it was connected, so he agreed without thinking.

I also think that Wu Zhi’s wonderful ideas may be another way to make money for the country.

After hearing many of Wu Zhi's thoughts, Song Huizong became more and more excited. Song Huizong actually liked money. If the treasury could have more income, which official family would not like it?

Only with money can you feel safe.

In the future, when wars and governing the world, there were disasters. The salaries of officials in the court and the military pay of soldiers. What kind of money is needed? Of course, the more the better. Anyway, Wu Zhi made a lot of money for the Song Dynasty, so he would do whatever he wanted.

Song Huizong was very direct. If you made achievements before, he believed you. Even though this post station model was not so easy to play in ancient times, Song Huizong also agreed that if you lack money, you can still transfer it from the treasury.

Because of what Wu Zhi did, Song Huizong agreed. Even if he hesitated, most of the time after Wu Zhi explained that Song Huizong would still support him.

Therefore, Wuzhi's balloon air force, naval ships, and land stations are now fully researched and implemented at the same time.

As months passed.

After this period of research, Wuzhi hot air balloon has achieved initial results.

The ball material of the hot air balloon has been made, and the ignition device is relatively rough, but it can be used, but it is not long, so Wu Zhi needs to be further strengthened.

In addition, the dye needed to burn hot air balloons is not a problem for Wu Zhi.

At this moment, something black had already ignited, and it rose up, but it fell down soon.

This thing is a little smaller than modern balloons and can only hold three people. This is just the result of the initial experiment.

But it also made the craftsmen on the scene exclaim.

"It's really possible to fly!"

"Is this too awesome?"

"If I hadn't seen it with my own eyes, I wouldn't have believed that there was such a magical thing that could fly!"

The craftsmen looked at Wu Zhi with a look of respect as gods.

These are all created by Wu Zhi.

Wu Zhi smiled and said, "Everyone is working hard. After researching for a period of time, it is estimated that the finished product will come out. Once the test is passed, it can be produced on a large scale. Then I will have an air force in the Song Dynasty!"

"Sir, I have such a wonderful idea and it's really successful. It's really admirable!"

"The King of Yan is so awesome!"

"There is a King of Yan in the Song Dynasty, and it is difficult not to be strong!"

Many craftsmen also learned a lot and opened their eyes.

In addition to these, Wu Zhi's ships are now being built in all aspects, but the ships are more complicated.

There are many things to be made. There is a large territory in the Business Department. Wooden boards are piled up everywhere on the ground. Some workers are cutting wood, painting, making molds and other procedures, as well as how to put ammunition and cannons in the ship just in the mouth, etc., all of which require a fine craftsman spirit.

Fortunately, Wu Zhi gave all the drawings and with his guidance, many difficult parts can be solved.

Wu Zhi's mind is like a computer, knowing all the details of the operation.

Because he mastered the technology, it was not that difficult, it was just a matter of time.

The station handed over to Li Gefei has also begun to adopt new models across the country.

First of all, they bought a batch of good horses that can travel thousands of miles a day, but can travel hundreds of miles a day, as well as various new delivery trucks and watercraft, all of which are used.

As soon as we started, many transportation routes were planned.

The merchants nearby were curious and some tried it and found that the transportation was safe and fast. Although the shipping fee was relatively expensive, this new station was a specialized channel for delivery, and you could make more money by making time quickly. So wherever there was a station, it led the surrounding merchants to start adopting this new method, which also promoted the local economic and trade development.

In just a short time, there will be some results, and each place can generate profits of tens of thousands of taels of silver.

The territory of the Song Dynasty is not small. If dozens of places are built, hundreds of thousands of taels can be generated every month.

If it is a comprehensive layout and mature, it will be tens of millions every year. What does this concept mean?

How much does the treasury cost in the Song Dynasty every year?

If a station can make so much money, will the Song Dynasty treasury still lack money?

After the profit was generated, Wu Zhi went to court the next day and prepared to report the results to Song Huizong.

Since Wu Zhi has made three things in a row recently and consumed millions of taels of silver, Cai Jing and others are attacking Wu Zhi frantically, which is consuming the national treasury. This is a waste of money.
