Recreating the prosperous Tang begins with summoning players

Everyone looked at Wang Mao. There was a garment workshop in Cangshui Village, and many women who were not working in the field were recruited to work there.

That garment workshop only had two sewing machines, and there were five or six peasant women stepping on the sewing machines. It seemed that the business was not too hot.

Wang Mao cleared his throat and said:
"The garment workshop I'm talking about is not this kind of small workshop. If we want to build it, we need to build a big one!"

Wang Mao said: "I have asked Jun'er to inquire about it, and Wang Gongsheng also helped us get through the relationship. The Governor's Mansion ordered a lot of sewing machines from Guazhou, and I want to rent a hundred of them!"

One hundred! ?
Many clansmen were surprised. Sewing machines are expensive at first glance, and Wang Mao actually wanted to rent a hundred of them at once.

The clan meeting was not controlled by Wang Mao, the patriarch, and the establishment of a workshop also required the cooperation of the whole clan.

He said patiently: "It's not buying a hundred sewing machines, but renting them!"

"The Governor's Mansion has a policy. The sewing machines in the Governor's Mansion can be rented to workshop owners, and the rent will be deducted from the income. As long as the lease is completed for two years, the sewing machines will be ours."

The eyes of some members of the Wang clan who knew how to settle accounts lit up.

The rent for two years is definitely cheaper than buying directly, and renting is more flexible than buying. If you can't do it, you can cancel the rent.

Wang Mao continued: "The governor's office also said that if we can't go through with the lease, we only need to pay one month's rent as liquidated damages."

Now everyone's eyes are brightened, this policy is quite generous.

Wang Mao continued: "However, you need to pay a deposit to rent a sewing machine, and the money in the clan's public treasury is almost enough to pay for it. However, to open a workshop and level the factory building, everyone needs to pool together. What do you think?"

Taiyuan Wang's family, which has been passed down for hundreds of years, naturally has its own family system.

The family has a public treasury and public land, and when it comes to buying family property, or when the whole family needs to spend money, the money is paid from the public treasury.

The money from the public treasury is also used to support the family ancestral hall, care for the elderly who are lonely and widowed in the family, orphans who have lost their parents, and provide for the children of the family to study.

And each house and household also has their own private money, which is a family's own money, and how to use it is controlled by the head of each house and family.

Now this branch of the Wang family has been dismantled into seventeen households, and the money is to be paid by the heads of these seventeen households.

Wang Mao took a look, and under his prestige, all the owners expressed their willingness to pay for the establishment of workshops.

Wang Mao continued: "This money is not for free."

"Jun'er read it in a newspaper in Longyou, and now there is a company in Gaochang, Shazhou."

"According to the number of shares paid out, the corresponding shares will be distributed. At the end of each quarter, we will distribute dividends according to the shares."

"Take this garment workshop as an example. For the money from the family treasury, the future dividends will still go to the family treasury. In the future, the money for sacrificing ancestors and helping the old and the young will still come from the family treasury."

"The money contributed by each household will be distributed according to the shares, and the profit of each quarter will be distributed according to the invested money."

The concept of share dividends is not difficult to understand, and the atmosphere immediately became active.

By the end of the meeting, the shares have been fully subscribed.

After sending off the other clansmen, Wang Jun said to Wang Mao:

"Grandpa, the family's money is already enough to run the workshop, why do you need everyone to pay? Isn't this just sharing the profits for nothing?"

Wang Jun was a little unconvinced.

Investigating projects, organizing workshops, and inquiring about news, these are what Wang Mao and Wang Jun are doing.

The family tried their best and finally found a business opportunity for the garment workshop.

These clansmen didn't support it at first, and they only paid when it came to dividends.

Wang Jun really didn't understand why he brought his clansmen with him when he could contribute money from his own family.

Wang Mao sat on the chair and said:
"Jun'er, your ability to be the patriarch of our Wuwei Wang family is enough, but your vision is still too short-sighted."

Wang Jun was a little unconvinced.

Wang Mao said: "This money can be paid by our family. As the father is old, you still have to go to school in the future. Is the business of this workshop handled by your sister-in-law or your nephew?"

Wang Jun was stunned.

Wang Mao said: "Opening a workshop is not like buying and renting out land. I have also talked with many workshop owners. It is all a matter of opening a workshop."

"Managing workers, buying raw materials, and selling products all need to be managed by people. Are you doing these things or are you doing them for your father?"

Wang Jun said stubbornly, "We can hire someone to take care of it!"

Wang Mao said with a smile: "Hire people? What do you think you are? Are you a county magistrate or a governor? Do you have to do a good job if you hire people?"

"Won't the people you hire fill your pockets?"

"And more importantly, will you do your best when you hire someone?"

Wang Jun was speechless.

Wang Mao said: "I know, you feel that there are many people in the family who have done more than they have failed. It is not easy for us to bring the family to Longyou, and there are still people who are holding back."

"Grandpa!"

Wang Mao continued: "But Jun'er, you need to know that Dahu's brother is a father and son soldier. If you want to open a workshop in Longyou, the people you can rely on most are the clansmen."

"If you can't trust your relatives, who else can you trust?"

"If everyone buys shares, every household can get dividends, and everyone can do a good job!"

Wang Mao patted Wang Jun on the shoulder and said:

"Jun'er, you shouldn't just focus on the family workshop. It's the best policy for a good man to get fame."

"If you can gain a foothold in Longyou, the family can gain a foothold in Longyou."

"In the future, our Wuwei Wang family may produce another Gongsheng! Another Jinshi!"

Wang Jun was a little ashamed, and he said quickly: "My son is already reviewing for the exam of the Governor's Mansion, and he must pass this time!"

Wang Mao said: "You should put aside the matter of preparing the workshop for now, the examination of the Governor's Mansion is more important."

"Your clan uncle hasn't set off for Fengxiang Mansion yet, right? You should go around more recently and find out what's going on in the yamen."

"If your clan uncle is willing to support you, our Wang family will have nothing to worry about in Wuwei."

The clan uncle Wang Mao mentioned was naturally the player Wang Chengwei. He has now officially entered the Taiyuan Wang clan and became a member of the Wang clan.

Wang Jun quickly said: "Uncle Clan has brought me to meet many people, and also explained to me a few points of the past exam papers, my son is confident that he can pass the exam!"

Wang Mao nodded. These big families naturally know that the money closest to power is the best to earn.

Therefore, it is also for the future of the Wang family to train his son to be an official in the governor's office.

Wang Chengwei was already packing his luggage. As a Gongsheng student recommended by Liangzhou, he was about to take the imperial examination in Fengxiang Mansion in September.

A total of seventeen players from Longyou have been recommended by the Governor's Mansion, and they will go to Fengxiang Mansion together.

These players who are about to take the imperial examination will spend a month going to Fengxiang Mansion, and then they have to make connections and make a name for themselves.

So although the imperial examination will not start until the end of September, the time is still very tight.

Wang Chengwei had already prepared things for the trip, and the seventeen players hired ten generals and players as guards to go to Fengxiang Mansion together.

"Uncle Shi, are you leaving tomorrow?" Wang Jun was holding a gift, and just as he entered the door, he heard the news that Wang Chengwei was going to Fengxiang Mansion for the exam.

Wang Chengwu greeted Wang Jun into the house, and he said: "The Gongsheng students from Longyou have agreed to go to Fengxiang Mansion together, and if they don't leave, they will go on the road alone."

Wang Jun's eyes were full of envy.

The Taiyuan Wang family is a big family, but Taiyuan Prefecture is in Shangzhou, and there are only three tribute students each time.

Moreover, there are also many big families in Taiyuan. Wang Jun is just a side branch of the Wang family in Taiyuan, and he cannot get the qualification of Gongsheng at all.

Wang Chengwei's ability to become a Gongsheng student in Liangzhou also showed Wang Jun a way.

If he can take root in Liangzhou, he might be elected by the governor's office of the state to take part in the imperial examination in the future!
Wang Jun put down the gift and said, "Uncle Clan, this is given to you by my grandfather."

Wang Chengwei took a stack of letters and was overjoyed when he saw the words on the envelope.

It turned out that this was a letter written by this branch of the Wang family in Taiyuan to the dignitaries of the capital.

Among them are all court ministers with whom Wang Mao interacted, and the top one is a letter to Prime Minister Pei Mian.

Now Wang Chengwei was overjoyed, and he found a way to recognize the relatives of the Taiyuan Wang family, just to be able to get in touch with the high officials in the Lingwu court.

Pei Mian comes from the Pei family in Hedong, and is the current head of the Pei family.

Wang Jun said: "When my father was young, he had some contacts with Pei Xianggong, and he has been writing letters all these years."

"Originally, my father wanted me to take the letter and go to Pei Xianggong's family to be an official after we settled down in Wuwei."

"But when I heard that my uncle was recommended by the governor of the state to participate in this autumn, my grandfather immediately wrote to me and asked me to bring it to you, hoping to help my uncle go to high school!"

Wang Chengwei's heart was hot, and it was really right to recognize such a relative as the Wang family this time!

It's not in vain for him to do such a long-term task!
However, Wang Mao entrusted all his relationships to Wang Chengwei, which is a heavy gift.

People must ask for something under courtesy, and Wang Chengwei also understands Wang Mao's thoughts.

He took out a thick booklet from his study and said: "This is the previous year's test questions for the official examination of the governor's office. Take it back and review it carefully."

Then Wang Chengwei took out another book on the introduction to mathematics and handed it to Wang Jun.

"If you want to test for positions related to finance and taxation, you also need to add a math test. You should read this book first."

These are all the textbooks that Wang Chengwei just entered the game, and the home of the public examination, and now they are all given to Wang Jun by Wang Chengwei.

Wang Chengwei added: "There is an evening school in Wuwei City that teaches basic arithmetic. The fee is not high. You can attend the lectures as long as you pay, but the effect is very good. If you don't understand, you can go to that evening school to listen to the lectures."

Wang Chengwei continued: "With your talent and learning, it is not difficult to be admitted to the official position. Now Liangzhou is waiting for prosperity, as long as you are willing to endure hardships, you will definitely be able to succeed."

"According to my suggestion, officials in charge of security and finance have the greatest chance of promotion."

"The financial work is complicated, and the security work is tough. If you can bear hardships, you can choose these two types of positions to apply for a try."
