Daming: I asked you to supervise the country, Daming is all crazy?

Chapter 73 There is no competition among my subordinates, so what is the difference between me and the person drying the salted fish?
"Subordinate Shen Wendu will meet His Royal Highness the Grandson!"

In a restaurant in Yingtian City, Zhu Zhanji looked at Shen Wendu with a red face in front of him and smiled slightly, saying:
"Get up, you should be doing well recently!"

Zhu Zhanji looked at Shen Wendu like this and joked with a smile. This guy should have been drinking with someone just now. When he called him, although he cleaned up, his face was obviously a little drunk.

After all, the current Shen Wendu is different from the previous Shen Wendu.

With his important position in Xinyan, it is estimated that the merchants who are fawning on this product can line up from one end of Yingtian City to the other.

Shen Wendu hurriedly saluted after hearing the words: "His Royal Highness, forgive me, and my subordinates will definitely pay attention next time."

"Okay, I don't blame you. After all, your current status is there, and there are still entertainments. Naturally, it is inevitable. Sit down and talk!"

Shen Wendu cupped his hands and said, "Thank you, Your Highness!"

Zhu Zhanji smiled, then pointed to the chair beside him, and after Shen Wendu sat down, he said:
"I'm looking for you today, firstly to learn about the recent sales of new salt, and secondly because there is something that needs you to deal with!"

Shen Wendu straightened his face when he heard the words, and immediately said: "Please speak, Your Highness!"

Zhu Zhanji leaned back, and then said: "Well, let's talk about the new salt first. Recently, the new salt produced by the Ministry of Households has been purchased smoothly, and those merchants took the salt according to the rules. Are you acting, is there anyone who breaks the rules?"

After Zhu Zhanji spoke, Shen Wendu immediately took out a book from his arms, handed it to Zhu Zhanji respectfully, and said:

"His Royal Highness, this is the entry and exit account book of the new salt sales recently recorded by this subordinate. According to the previous plan, the new salt is divided into two types of salt. So far, the agency fee deposits for the two types of salt have been collected. According to your According to your order, [-]% of it has been given to the household department, and the rest has been stored in the place you designated."

"Salt merchants all over the world are also starting to buy salt. After discussing with the adults of the household department, the ratio of ordinary yellow salt to snowflake salt is set at a hundred times. If you take one catty of snowflake salt, you need to take one hundred catties of yellow salt first. As a result, about 7000 million catties of yellow salt and 70 catties of snowflake salt have been sold at present. The remaining total profit is more than 70 million taels."

"not bad!"

Hearing Shen Wendu's words, Zhu Zhanji nodded, and casually looked through the ledger.

Shen Wendu, a profiteer, was given the responsibility of Xinyan, and he was very satisfied.

How long has it been?

Just made a fortune collecting agency fees.

Xinyan made another nearly 700 million taels of silver.

He divided it into 200% and it was almost [-] million taels of silver.

Although it may not seem like a lot, this amount of money is not a one-off. As time accumulates, as those salt merchants buy more and more new salt, the amount of money will naturally increase.

At that time, it will not be a few million taels.

Seeing that Zhu Zhanji was very satisfied, Shen Wendu breathed a sigh of relief, and then continued: "As for whether the salt merchants in various places are acting according to the rules, it's just that the time is still short, and the sale of new salt has just started near Yingtian. Far away, the new salt is still being transported, and it is still unknown."

"All right!"

Zhu Zhanji was a little helpless about this efficiency when he heard the words.

But he also knew that Shen Wendu was not lying.

After all, now is not the future, and a batch of new things that want to spread to the market cannot be done in a short time.

It is not a simple and easy thing to deliver to these places alone.

"You should pay more attention to the matter of Xinyan. I called you here today mainly for another matter!"

Zhu Zhanji glanced at Shen Wendu, and then waved to Zhang Mao who had been sitting beside him.

Seeing this, Zhang Mao immediately took out a few balls of wool from his arms and handed them over.

Shen Wendu took it, a little puzzled.

After looking at some wool similar to rope in his hand, he was even more puzzled.

"This is a woolen thread made of wool. You don't have to worry about how it came from. You can look at this again."

As Zhu Zhanji said, he took out another glove from his sleeve, put it on his hand and said with a smile:
"This thing is called a glove. Wear it on your hands in winter to keep out the cold. The method is also very simple. You just use the wool in your hand and tie some slipknots with a wooden needle."

"Is this made of wool?"

Shen Wendu looked at the gloves in Zhu Zhanji's hand, and then at the wool in his hand. He was stunned for a moment, then carefully picked up the wool in his hand, looked at it, and even took it to his nose and sniffed it.

After discovering that this kind of soft wool does not have the slightest smell of wool, his eyes suddenly brighten:
"His Royal Highness, if this item is woven into clothes, it will be softer and warmer than cotton cloth, but it will not have the smell of wool. It will definitely be popular if sold, and it will definitely make a lot of money."

As expected of a profiteer, the first thing he thought of was to sell it well and make a lot of money.

But what Zhu Zhanji thinks about now is not making money. After all, the money that wool can make is far behind in front of Xinyan.

Zhu Zhanji's current money is temporarily enough to support him to accomplish many things.

After a pause, Zhu Zhanji finally stated his purpose:
"There is no rush to make money. Now I have one thing that needs to be handed over to you. You can see this kind of glove on my hand. I need to get a quantity of no less than 20 in a short time."

"What does Taisun mean?"

Shen Wendu glanced at the glove on Zhu Zhanji's hand, but he didn't understand what Zhu Zhanji meant.

Seeing this, Zhu Zhanji explained: "My idea is to contract this matter to some merchants in batches, let them help with the production, and then I will pay them some employment fees. What do you think?"

This is the method Zhu Zhanji thought of, similar to the contracting system of later generations, contracting things that could not be completed in a short period of time to businessmen in batches.

Then you only need to pay a contract fee to greatly speed up the progress of the project.

This is why Zhu Zhanji dared to boast about Haikou in front of Zhu Gaochi, and tens of thousands of people would knit sweaters with his own order.

After all, for those businessmen, they will never refuse anything that makes money.

When Shen Wendu heard Zhu Zhanji's method, he went through his mind quickly, telling him to think about other things, he might not be very good.

But when it came to business, it immediately became like two people. After thinking for a while, they immediately cupped their hands and said:

"Grandfather, may I ask how much the woolen thread costs?"

Hearing Shen Wendu's question, Zhu Zhanji guessed that this guy must have other ideas, and said: "A ball like yours is about five yuan!"

After a pause, Zhu Zhanji asked, "Do you have any other ideas?"

When Zhu Zhanji said that the cost of the woolen thread was only five cents, Shen Wendu was also startled, then took a deep breath of air, nodded and said:

"Huh... The subordinates of the method do have other methods!"

After Zhu Zhanji heard that Shen Wendu had a solution, he was not surprised.

Shen Wendu, he can also see that being smart is definitely smart, but it is obviously a bit serious.

If you ask him about other things, this guy may not be able to give any good solutions, but when it comes to the business, this guy is like opening red and blue double BUFF.

This intelligence quotient came up gradually, and sometimes he, a time traveler, would feel his eyes brighten.

Seeing Zhu Zhanji looking at him, Shen Wendu sorted out his thoughts a little, and immediately said:
"Speaking of which, my subordinate's method is not much different from that of His Royal Highness, but I feel that instead of contracting these gloves to those merchants, it is better to sell the wool thread to those peasant women."

"Businessmen value profits. If His Highness assigns the business of gloves to these merchants, not to mention that these merchants have obtained the wool thread, they will also invite peasant women as helpers. Some merchants will inevitably take advantage of His Highness's urgent need for a large number of gloves. Raise the price."

"If that's the case, why don't Your Highness sell the wool thread to those peasant women? In this way, His Highness only needs to put up a sign and tell the peasant women who bought the wool thread, how much His Highness will pay back for each glove that is finished. At that time, when the peasant women see the benefits, they will definitely participate in large numbers."

"In addition, it's winter now, and it's okay to be idle. Some peasant women will definitely see the benefits of woolen yarn in the process of knitting gloves when they get money. In this way, when we start selling woolen yarn again, we will be able to sell woolen yarn immediately. Wouldn’t it be better to be able to earn back the rewards paid to them, come and go again and again, His Highness hasn’t paid a penny, but can indeed get 20 pairs of gloves in a very short period of time?”

Otherwise, why would Zhu Zhanji call this guy a profiteer?
This special code is not a profiteer, it is simply unreasonable.

A small contract system has been taken to a new level by this guy.

What does it mean to get 20 pairs of gloves for free in a short period of time without paying a penny.

If this is done according to Shen Wendu's method.

It's like helping the woolen thread to make a publicity for free!
Wool thread, okay?
That is for sure!
Cheap, warm, and better than cotton.

And it doesn't take much effort to weave, unlike weaving, you can only sit there and weave the warp and weft back and forth.

As long as you have a knitting needle, you can knit wherever you go.

Once Zhu Zhanji changed the contract to selling wool to peasant women, and then recycling gloves.

It is impossible for those peasant women not to be tempted when they see the good wool thread and the money they make by weaving gloves.

At that time, I will definitely use the money earned from knitting gloves to buy some woolen thread, and then weave some woolen sweaters for my family.

In this way, it not only saves a large amount of money for hiring merchants, but also completes the task of 20 pairs of gloves while doing publicity.

Of course, the most important thing is that this matter is beneficial to both Zhu Zhanji and the peasant women.

Unlike looking for businessmen, it is always those businessmen who benefit.

"good idea!"

Zhu Zhanji clapped his hands, and adopted Shen Wendu's method without hesitation.

Zhang Mao on the side heard Zhu Zhanji praising Shen Wendu, and his eyes were a little complicated.

Speaking of which, Shen Wendu was recommended to Zhu Zhanji by him.

But it wasn't long before he found that Zhu Zhanji's view of Shen Wendu was getting more and more attention.

First the new salt, and then the current wool thread. If things go on like this, in the future, Shen Wendu's position in the heart of His Highness the Grandson will be very important, right?
Zhu Zhanji didn't notice the change in Zhang Mao's eyes, and he wouldn't care if he did.

After all, the competition that subordinates should have is still necessary. If there is no little competition, then what is the difference between raising a group of subordinates and drying a group of salted fish?
