Zhenguan Han-in-law

Chapter 389 Li Shimin's Inspiration
Chapter 385

Wei Hao stood there, pressing down with his hand, and the people became quiet.

"Everyone, the long-awaited lottery ceremony has begun. The person in charge and founder of all the workshops will draw lots for you this time. After drawing out the note, you will read the number on it. If your number and If you want to read the same number, please don't cheer, because there are still many lottery draws, and your cheers will not be heard by others.

In addition, if you don’t hear clearly, you can also look at the back wall, where the number that got the lottery will be posted on it, you go and check it, if it is right, it means that you have won the lottery, remember, within four days , you need to come here to pay, if you don't come to pay, it will be deemed that you have given up this purchase, I believe you have all seen the previous notice clearly! "Wei Hao stood there, looking at the people below and said.

The people below listened to Wei Hao's words very quietly.

"Okay, I won't say much, today's task is still very heavy, so let's start now!" Wei Hao said, and then the craftsmen began to draw the first lottery.

"Zero four zero eight seven six!"

"One seven two five five three!". The first two numbers belong to the workshop, zero one means the first workshop, and the latter is the ticket for the lottery.

"I won, I won!" A commoner lowered his voice and said very excitedly. The voice was not loud, but it also attracted the attention of people around him. Many people saw it and recognized him. He was the owner of a small restaurant.

The big guy also has confidence in his heart, knowing that ordinary people can also buy it. With the continuous drawing of lots, more and more people are very excited, saying that they have won the lottery.

Wei Hao stood there, watched for about a quarter of an hour, and wanted to go down, and there was nothing wrong standing here.

Just as Wei Hao got down, he saw a captain walking towards him.

"Duke Xia, someone is looking for you!" the captain said while looking at Wei Hao with a smile.

Wei Hao looked around.

"Follow me!" The captain still said with a smile, Wei Hao could only follow him.

But at this moment, outside, cheers could be heard from time to time, someone had won the lottery.

Soon, Wei Hao arrived at the restaurant opposite the county government.

"Father!" Wei Hao went upstairs, saw Li Shimin sitting there, and immediately shouted.

"Well, come and sit down!" Li Shimin said with a smile, then Wei Hao said to Li Jing, "Father-in-law!"

"Okay, thank you for your hard work!" Li Jing said with a smile, and then Wei Hao and several others bowed their hands and sat down. A soldier came over with a cup of tea.

"Look, what a spectacle, there are so many people, so many people, just for money!" Li Shimin looked down and said with a smile.

"Well, this is an opportunity for many ordinary people. If it is done well, it is equivalent to leaving a piece of property for their own family. Although it is not much, it is also a lot. Dividends of tens of thousands of dollars a year are quite a lot. It's gone!" Wei Hao said to Li Shimin with a smile, but cheers still came from outside, Wei Hao looked over there and saw an ordinary person.

"However, it is estimated that there are a lot of shares, and they will still be taken over!" Li Shimin said to Wei Hao.

"It doesn't matter. For the first registration, they must come with their numbers. The first registration can only be registered under their names. After four days, they can go to the workshop to change people. Moreover, if they want to sell, Erchen reckons that they won't sell it without a certain profit." Wei Hao nodded and said.

"One share is already 14 yuan, but it has increased a lot." Li Jing said to Wei Hao.

"The 30 cents are low. Normally, one share can be combined to 50 cents. Think about it, even if you buy land, it will take 5 years to pay back the 10 cents. And the workshop is a bit risky. , but it is also very good to be able to pay back the capital in 5 years. Judging from the current operating conditions of those workshops, it does not need five years, but three years is enough. Therefore, in terms of value, 50 yuan is worth it." Wei Wei Hao immediately explained to Li Jing.

"Yeah!" Li Shimin nodded, and continued to look at the situation outside with a smile.

Every time after reading, Li Shimin would stare at the people below, see who cheered, look at his clothes, and guess their identities.

"Father, there is another benefit of this lottery. I believe that more and more workshops will pop up. By then, Chang'an's economy will only get better and better. I believe that someone will see When those craftsmen make so much money, they must have ideas, and they will also think about starting a workshop!" Sitting there, Wei Hao said to Li Shimin.

"Well, yes, indeed!" Fang Xuanling said from the side.

"Oh, there is?" Li Shimin turned to look at Fang Xuanling and asked.

"Yes, many craftsmen are thinking about making good things and selling them. The previous craftsmen in my family are also thinking about this now. When they make something, they also go to the merchant to sell it. If they can sell it, They also wanted to build a workshop, and I thought it was a good idea, so I didn't stop them!" Fang Xuanling nodded and reported to Li Shimin.

"You still need to support them. If you are short of money to buy materials, you can give them money to buy materials. If you can get them out, you can also buy shares, and you can make money at that time. And once there are more workshops in Datang, more taxes will be paid. Not to mention, the point is that the people in Chang'an have an extra job to make a living.

Now those skilled workers in the workshop have already offered prices ranging from 800 Wen to 1 Guan. If they are craftsmen, the price is even higher, reaching 2 Guan. Think about it, this means that the monthly income of those workers is almost 2 mu of land. The income, a labor force, is equivalent to planting 20 mu of fertile land a year by myself.

For ordinary people, there is no shortage of labor force at home. They often have several laborers in a family, plant twenty or thirty acres of land, and idle when they are free. With a profit, generally speaking, the average income of the people in Chang'an City can be more than doubled.

In this way, the people in Chang'an City will soon become rich, and when the people in Chang'an City become rich, it will also encourage them to buy things. For example, if some people want to build houses and brick houses, they want to buy bricks. Brick shops make money, but at the same time they buy lumber, and lumber merchants make money.

Moreover, once they build a brick house, they don't have to worry about the house being crushed when they encounter a blizzard. These are obvious benefits! " Wei Hao sat there, looked at them and said, Li Shimin and the others were listening to Wei Hao very seriously, "Continue talking! " Li Shimin saw that Wei Hao stopped, and immediately said to Wei Hao.

"In addition, once the people have money, they will hire servants, and people from other places will have more opportunities. They can also earn money in Chang'an City, and they can also take the money home to subsidize their families. , so that the lives of the people around Chang'an will improve, and the effect will be seen within three years.

Not to mention other things, let’s just say that these more than 40 workshops can directly affect more than 5000 families, and indirectly affect more than 2 families. This is still not going to the new factory building. Once the new factory building is built Well, those workshops still need to recruit more people to work. Preliminary estimates can directly affect 1 households, and the indirect impact will be even more. "Wei Hao sat there and continued.

"Okay, not bad, but more workshops are needed. By the way, is your rice and white flour processing workshop going to be built? Also, the emperor asked you to make a carriage. You have There is no way, this carriage really restricts the transportation of materials!" Li Shimin asked Wei Hao.

"Rice and [-] meters, hehe, I'm still working on it now, and I will also build a workshop. Actually, I have already designed the carriage, and I haven't made a prototype yet. I'm really busy now. Father, how can I have this?" Time?" Wei Hao looked at Li Shimin and said helplessly.

"Then you have to hurry up. After this matter is over, you just stare at the carriage. You have received a lot of reports now, that is, the matter of the carriage. The supplies carried by the carriage are too small. It looks like it can hold hundreds of catties in one trip." Li Shimin said to Wei Hao.

"Yes, father, don't worry, the carriage designed by Erchen can carry about 2000 catties, but it needs two horses, but this is more than one horse!" Wei Hao explained to Li.

"Okay!" Li Shimin nodded happily when he heard it. "Is there really such a carriage?" Cheng Yaojin looked at Wei Hao and asked.

"It's still under design, it hasn't been made yet!" Wei Hao looked at Cheng Yaojin and said.

"Then hurry up and do it. Now you know that Datang has no shortage of horses, but every time we transport the supplies of our Datang army, it is very exhausting. If there is a carriage that can carry 2000 catties, it will be too much." Well, when the time comes, we will be able to replenish the supplies on the borders of various places much faster, Shen Yong, you must hurry up on this matter, you must hurry up!" Cheng Yaojin emphasized to Wei Hao.

"Yes, Shen Yong, you need to hurry up on this matter!" Li Jing also emphasized to Wei Hao.

"Okay, let me hurry up, I'll start after I'm done with these things!" Wei Hao nodded and said.

"Don't wait to finish these things. Do it when you have free time. The faster the carriage, the better. Moreover, a large number of carriages are needed to repair the straight road and load supplies. For this matter, you need to use some refreshments!" Li Shimin also agreed. Followed by Wei Hao and said.

"Okay!" Wei Hao said helplessly.

Then Li Shimin looked outside while drinking tea. The outside was very lively. Those who were drawn were very happy, and they would also come out from the spot that was drawn just now, and go to other draw points. Some people bought several places.

"I won the draw again!" A person shouted loudly at this moment, very happy, the people next to him looked at him enviously, many people hoped to be able to draw the number in their hands, but this really needs to rely on Fortunately, at Changsun Wuji's house, Changsun Wuji was sitting in the living room, waiting for outsiders to report that he had raised 4000 yuan to buy those shares.

But so far, only three people have come to report that they have won the lottery, and they have spent 300 coins, which is still far from the goal of 4000 coins. When we arrived, we had to wait for the final confirmation to know how much we bought. In Wei Zheng's house, Wei Zheng was also sitting in the living room drinking tea, and Wei Shuyu also came in at this moment.

"Father, I went to the place where the lottery was drawn just now. There are too many people and there is no place to stand. However, as far as I know, our family has already won 5 people in the lottery." Wei Shuyu said to Wei Zheng with a smile.

"Oh, I won five, that's right, it's an extra three to five hundred dollars a year, not bad!" Wei Zheng said happily when he heard it.

"Father, I don't understand. You are so opposed to Wei Hao, and you also oppose Wei Hao's sale of those workshops. Why do you need to prepare 3000 yuan to buy these shares?" Wei Shuyu looked at Wei Zheng in confusion and asked. stand up.

"Hmph, what do you know? The reason for objecting to Shenyong is that these should have been given to the Ministry of Civil Affairs, and the purchase of those shares is because it can make money, understand? From the very beginning, this old man knew that he could make money!" Wei Zheng touched his hand at this moment Beard, said proudly.

"So, Wei Hao is still very powerful. He did this to make the people of Chang'an rich!" Wei Shuyu sat there and said cautiously. He didn't dare to mention Wei Hao's name at home before.

"Of course it's amazing. With my own ability, I won the titles of dukes of two countries, and my Majesty and Queen's Empress, His Royal Highness, and the trust of the Supreme Emperor. If you don't have the ability, can you do it so well? You, in the future Opportunity, walk around with him more!" Wei Zheng looked at Wei Shuyu and said.

"Ah, Dad, I, I walked with him, Dad, are you not angry?" Wei Shuyu looked at Wei Zheng in surprise, but he knew that Wei Hao and Wei Zheng had fought countless times, but every time it seemed like They will not beat them seriously, and even say that it is completely fine, but they need to go to jail.

"Why am I angry, hey, you, I don't understand, Dad actually appreciates Wei Hao, but it's because of his appreciation that Dad wants to fight him like this, I believe, he also knows, otherwise, the relationship between the two of us, It won't be so subtle, don't look at the two of us staring at each other in the hall, but after the court, Dad won't get angry with him, and he won't come to trouble Dad, it's all because of business , Individuals have no personal enmity.

So, if you have a chance, go and play with him. Besides, you are you and I am me. Shen Yong can clearly distinguish this point. If you can become good friends with him, Dad will not worry about you. . "Wei Zheng looked at Wei Shuyu and said, Wei Shuyu looked at Wei Zheng very confused.

In his opinion, Wei Hao and Wei Zheng are rivals, but from Wei Zheng's mouth, it seems that it is not that serious.

"Father, don't worry, I'll play with him, and then he will punish me for revenge?" Wei Shuyu looked at Wei Zheng and asked cautiously.

Wei Zheng heard it, smiled, then pointed Wei Shuyu with his finger and said: "You, from this we can see that you are far from Shen Yong. Most of the people who come here must be broad-minded and capable. Although his personality is very impulsive, he cannot deny his advantages!

These workshops can actually make a lot of people make money, even ordinary people can make money!This is the first time in history! "

"Anyway, I also think that this matter is done very well, and it can make ordinary people earn money. Now many people are accepting it, and the price has risen to 14 yuan and 500 yuan a share, and it will continue to rise. They just want to accept ordinary people. Those shares in their hands are sold by very few people, very few! Unless they can’t afford it, if they buy 10 shares, they will sell 7 shares and keep three shares for themselves. It’s just that they don’t need to spend For a penny, I got shares in three workshops, but there are very few of them.” Sitting there, Wei Shuyu said to Wei Zheng.

Wei Zheng nodded.

And in Wei Yuanzhao's mansion, in the mansions of the heads of those aristocratic families, everyone is paying attention to this lottery, and the East Palace is no exception, and the same is true for Yue Wang's mansion. Someone came to report.

At noon, it was time to eat. Wei Hao asked someone to deliver the food to the table, and asked the craftsmen to rest for a while. After eating, they continued to draw lots.

And Li Shimin and the others also went back, back to the palace.

When he arrived at the palace, Li Shimin summoned Li Chengqian.

"Father, are you looking for my son?" Li Chengqian came over and said to Li Shimin, clasping his hands.

"Everyone else go out, today, just us father and son chatting!" Li Shimin said, and those captains hiding in the dark all retreated, and Li Chengqian was left in the study.

"Come and make tea!" Li Shimin said to Li Chengqian, Li Chengqian nodded and sat in the main seat.

"Today, did you go to the Chang'an county government office?" Li Shimin asked Li Chengqian.

"My son didn't go, but my son sent people to go. After all, my son wants to buy some." Li Chengqian sat there and said with a smile.

"Well, the father went today, which brought a great impact to the father. The father is a bit messy now, and he wants to sort out this matter!" Li Shimin sat there, sighed, and said.

"Father? Is there any problem?" Li Chengqian looked at Li Shimin worriedly and asked.

"Huh? Oh, no problem. Father is just thinking, how did Shen Yong know how to make those things, and, Gao Ming, tell me, is it more useful to study or open a workshop? No, it can't be open. Gongfang, um, I don’t know what to say here. The opening of the workshop is just a superficial phenomenon. What the father means is that those civil servants are more useful, or people like Shen Yong are more useful, Shen Yong said Your own craftsman, let's say craftsman!

Father thought about it all morning today, seeing so many people waiting at the county government for money, father couldn't help thinking!Who is more beneficial to Datang, civil servants or craftsmen? " Li Shimin sat there, staring at Li Chengqian and talking.
