Chapter 1546 Preparation
Chen Qing thought for a while and said: "It is estimated that the craftsman will also ask me for instructions. My idea is that first of all, the East is mainly from the Yong Dynasty, and must not be foreigners, and all the people involved in making machines must not be foreigners. This is the first time. one.

Second, you must have strong financial resources, and the investment cost must be more than [-] guan. I believe there will be no problem with the three of you; third, you must establish a special trading company. Institutions, one is the construction workshop, the other is the technology research institute. In fact, there should be a commercial firm responsible for purchasing raw materials; fourth, there must be a large site. This site should be in the downwind direction of Jingzhao, a little distance from Jingzhao Convenience, I think Xianyang is better;
Fifth, to have the ability to recruit high-level craftsmen, that is, to be able to recruit and retain people, you have to consider providing housing for the craftsmen, basically the above five points! "

"Wei Chen understands, Wei Chen will go back and discuss it, and then proceed to apply."

Chen Qing said indifferently: "Generally speaking, we will approve two or three merchants who build steam engines. At present, the steam engine of Taixue will be installed on a [-] stone cargo ship for testing. After the spring, it will be in Guangyuntan I saw it."

Zheng Tongquan understood the emperor's hint and urged himself to apply quickly. With competitors, it would not be so easy to apply.

"I'm going to discuss it now! If you don't disturb His Majesty's rest, I will leave!"

Zheng Tongquan bowed and withdrew, and Chen Qing told Yang Tai, "I'm going to take a nap for half an hour, don't let anyone disturb me anymore!"

Zheng Tongquan left the palace in a hurry, came outside the gate of Taiji Palace, boarded a large carriage, and the carriage slowly drove south.

Inside the carriage, Zheng Tongquan informed Yu Qingfeng and Wang Zhenbang of the emperor's attitude.

Yu Qingfeng immediately said: "There is no problem with one hundred thousand guan. Brother Wang and I will pay [-] guan, and Mr. Zheng will pay [-] guan. How about it?"

A soldier pointed to the pile of rocks under the cliff.

At this time, this vast land is still covered with thick white snow, and it doesn't look like farmland.

It was the end of December at this time, and the New Year was coming soon, and the officers and soldiers on the island were also immersed in the atmosphere of preparing for the New Year.

Tang Tingan was very similar to his father, he was conscientious and responsible and meticulous in his work. It was because of his seriousness and responsibility that Chen Qing approved him to be stationed on Tamna Island.

"General, that's the one!"

Zheng Tongquan and Yu Qingfeng looked at Wang Zhenbang together, and Wang Zhenbang took a closer look at the land, nodded and said: "This land is not bad, as long as the craftsman does not agree to build a workshop here, you can also do other things, you can buy it !"

The three of them immediately got into the car and headed towards the county seat. The three of them finalized the purchase agreement at the county government office and bought the land at a price of [-] guan. He bought ten acres of land, and planned to build a dormitory here for the recruited foreign craftsmen to live in.

Seeing that neither of them agreed to relocate the clock factory, Yu Qingfeng nodded, "Okay! We won't move for now, but let's finalize the land first."

The next day, they established Jiutian Heavy Industry and Commerce Co., Ltd. in a two-story shop on Jingzhaocheng West Street, opened an account in Yongjing Cabinet Square in the name of the business company, and deposited [-] guan. Submitted an application to the craftsman for the manufacture of steam engines.

"What was this place used for?" Zheng Tongquan couldn't remember whether it was farmland or not.

An hour later, the carriage arrived in Xianyang. Instead of entering the city, they went directly to the piece of land they were looking for.

"Then go directly to the county government. I agree to buy this place. Where's Brother Wang?"

Zheng Tongquan nodded and said: "This piece of land is not bad. It is rare that it is close to the county seat and the wharf. It is not farmland. In fact, [-] mu of land is enough to build a steam engine. The Taixue side only has [-] mu of land. Here At the same time, it can be used as a warehouse and build a dock by itself.”

Zheng Tongquan gave an order, and the carriage turned around and drove towards the west gate.

"The Beijing News also wants to buy it?"

Wang Zhenbang also said: "Considering confidentiality, I also think that the two should not be put together."

"Is this land in demand?" Zheng Tongquan asked again.

Yu Qingfeng reminded with a smile: "Don't forget, the big clock will also migrate here."

Yu Qingfeng said with a smile: "To tell you the truth, Yu's Commercial Company originally wanted to take this piece of land to build a warehouse. I have negotiated with the county government for several rounds, because there are many people who want to buy it, and they don't worry about selling it. As for the price, I am very stubborn, and I will not lower the price. I have already paid [-] guan in advance, and the "Beijing News" and another firm have also paid [-] guan. If we want it, we must settle it immediately. The Beijing News has not yet made up its mind, otherwise once the "Beijing News" decides to buy here, our hope is not great, Xianyang County has always wanted to bring the "Beijing News" over."

The three of them continued to discuss in the carriage. They changed the name of the original clock slightly. It was originally called "Kyushu Gravity Clock Workshop". Recruit [-] master craftsmen, each with [-] yuan per month, and try to build ten steam engines every month, each priced at [-] yuan. Net profit, the cost can be recovered in three years.

The reason why they gave up [-]% of the share to Zheng Tongquan was that they were worried that the emperor would also take [-]% of the share.

Yu Qingfeng nodded, "Several big merchants wanted to buy it. The Luo family wanted to build a leather tanning workshop here, but the county government was reluctant because the smell of tanning was too strong. In addition, the "Beijing News" also wanted to buy it. Get down here."

"They want to buy it as a warehouse, but they have looked at several pieces of land, and Guangyuntan is also looking at it, so they can't make a decision. It seems that there are still several commercial firms that are also in contact, and they all want to buy it as a warehouse. .”

The two readily agreed, "That's it, four three three, it's more fair, and then, let's go and see the venue."

In the morning, Tang Ting'an brought dozens of soldiers to a fjord in the northeast corner. He had just received a report from patrol soldiers that a body was found in the rocks of the fjord.

"The asking price is [-] guan, [-] guan per mu. Is it possible for the government to give you a little more discount?"

Zheng Tongquan frowned, "Don't move the big clock! These two families have nothing to do with each other, and clock making needs to be quiet, and the steam engine is very noisy."

The three also unanimously agreed that Yu An, the current head of the Gravity Clock Workshop, will be the head of the new business company, and each of the three companies will send an accountant to be responsible for the accounting. Yu An is the third son of Yu Qingfeng. Extremely clever, he is now able to participate in the installation of the gravity clock.

Wang Zhenbang said with a smile: "It happens that there is a vacant lot for sale in the west of Xianyang. It covers an area of ​​[-] mu and is close to the Weihe River. The asking price is [-] guan. Let's take a look."

On Tamla Island, the Yong army has occupied this big island for almost a year. Currently, there are three thousand naval troops stationed on Tamla Island, including twenty large ships of ten thousand stone and dozens of warships of three thousand stone.

The land is just to the west of Xianyang City, less than two miles away from the county seat, and close to the Weihe Freight Wharf in Xianyang.

Yu Qingfeng smiled slightly and said: "If the ice and snow melt, you will know that this place has always been a wasteland, overgrown with weeds, and the county government has always wanted to use it to build a warehouse. Later, the warehouse was built on the east side, and this land was vacated. "

Zheng Tongquan understood what they were thinking, shook his head and said, "The emperor does not participate in this business. It's still the same as making clocks. I account for [-]%, and the two of you each make [-]%. Then the clock making and steam engine making will be combined into one."

The main general is Tang Ting'an, the eldest son of Tang Huai, and he is the commander of the army. Tang Ting'an is about 30 years old and has been in the army for 13 years. He has been fighting with his father and has made countless achievements. When he came from the Yue family army, he was already a young commander. make.

Tang Tingan looked over and saw a dead body, stuck in the crevices of the pile of rocks. It didn't rot, and it should have died within two days.

Tang Tingan looked around, it was impossible to rush up from the sea, there was still a little distance from the sea, and it was impossible to get stuck in the crevice of the rock inexplicably, there was only one possibility, falling off the cliff.

"Go down, two brothers, and pull up the corpse!"

The two soldiers went down slowly with long ropes tied around their waists.
