Technology dominates the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 208 [Small treasury]

In the study room, there were many documents on the desk, and Lu Bu had breakfast as usual, and first dealt with the daily documents that were handed over.

These documents were sent to the General's Mansion, Lu Bu's study yesterday afternoon to evening, and Lu Bu would spend at most half a day processing these documents every day.

"This is a document handed over by the Department of Agriculture. We plan to set up relevant departments in Yulin County, Jiaozhi County, and Jiuzhen County." Lu Bu opened a booklet dedicated to writing documents and read from his mouth.

This kind of booklet was made by Chen Gong of the Ministry of Households. Liu Xi of the Ministry of Rites discussed with Lu Bu and made it with new paper. According to the relevant etiquette, the templates of the booklets were divided into several grades. Among them, the one handed over to Lu Bu was the most High-end, most honorable excerpt.

The paper mill that Chen Gong secretly manages is getting bigger and bigger. The materials used in papermaking are mainly wood, bamboo and straw, etc. The new paper produced also has different textures.

"The Department of Agriculture needs to set up the [Agricultural Bureau], [Depository Bureau] and [Promotion Bureau] in Yulin County, Jiaozhi County, and Jiuzhen County, as well as the directly subordinate yamen of Xianguan to ask for permission. In addition, it is necessary to allocate relevant cost of"

Lu Bu thought for a while, and the headquarters of the Department of Agriculture has moved to Panyu City, and Guangxin City in Cangwu County already had a distribution.

Moreover, another distribution has now been established in Hepu County.The headquarters of the Agriculture Department is at the division level and is located in Panyu City.Then under the division level, there are bureau-level and department-level departments, such as the Agricultural Construction Bureau and the Agricultural Construction Office.

Except for Nanhai County, where the department level is located in Panyu City, other counties in Jiaozhou, in principle, only set up bureau-level departments in county and county towns, and then set up department-level departments in other counties to form a layered management mechanism.

The agricultural divisions of Nanhai County, Cangwu County and Hepu County in Jiaozhou have basically been established.In order to better organize spring plowing, it is necessary to cover all departments of the Agriculture Department to all counties in Jiaozhou before spring plowing.

In addition to this booklet, there is another book about the Department of Agriculture, but it is about the recent production, use and sale of agricultural tools by the Department of Agriculture.

At present, except for some agricultural tools that are provided free of charge to the common people, the others are sold to the common people through the [Agricultural Department Farm Tools Monopoly Store] set up in each county.

Because Lu Bu had made a clear order in advance, ordinary farm tools were basically sold to the common people at cost price.However, the price of special agricultural tools is very high, such as: wind valley carts, curved plows, water mills, water reels, boat reels and boat mills and other special agricultural tools.

Because those who can afford these special farm tools are not grain merchants, but big households or big families, and they don't lack this little money.

Therefore, the main income of the Department of Agriculture still depends on the profits obtained from the sale of these special farm tools.

"Oh? Fenggu carts, Quyuan plows, water mills, and water reins are all selling well. It seems that there are many rich people in Jiaozhou." The corners of Lu Bu's mouth rose, revealing a satisfied smile.

After approving the papers from the Department of Agriculture, Lu Bu continued to read other papers, and now he was holding the papers from the Ministry of Industry.

Because the construction of Huashen Medical College and Sinong College requires a lot of good wood, and most of these woods have to be viewed from the mountains of Jiaozhi County and Yulin County. In addition, some stone materials also need to be quarried from these places.

Therefore, it is necessary to set up [Public Construction Offices] in Yulin County and Jiaozhi County to recruit workers on the spot, and only need to send officials from the first customs to go there.

"It can only be transported by land? Isn't there a large enough ship for sea transport?" Looking at the transport method in the notebook, Lu Bu thought for a while and read.

The southeast of Jiaozhou is all near the sea, but there are no large ships that can be used for combat. Most of them are fishing boats.And to transport large timber and stone, ships of sufficient size are needed.

If you walk, transport from Jiaozhi County and Yulin County to Panyu County in Nanhai County, the distance is long, and the road is not smooth, it needs to be repaired and widened.

"It seems that this is the only way at present. However, road construction needs to be carried out. Taking advantage of the slack time, we can recruit more people."

More than an hour passed, and after finishing his business affairs, Lu Bu began to deal with his personal affairs.

The so-called private affairs refer to [General Bun Shop], [Zuixian Wine House] and [Mulin Furniture].

The reason why Lu Bu attaches great importance to them is because they are the main source of money in Lu Bu's current small coffers.

[Jiangjun Baozipu], [Zuixian Wine House] and [Mulin Furniture] have opened branches in the main counties of Nanhai County, Cangwu County and Hepu County. There are Sihui City and Boluo City; Cangwu County has Gaoyao City, Duanxi City and Guangxin City; Hepu County has Linyun City, Gaoliang City and Hepu City.

Now, in order to cooperate with the layout of [Luowang Tianyan] in Jiaozhou, the branches of [Jiangjun Baozipu], [Zuixian Wine House] and [Mulin Furniture] will also be located in the main counties of Yulin County, Jiaozhi County and Jiuzhen County. Open a branch.

The county towns of the three counties are scheduled, currently there are [Tanzhong City], [Bushan City] and [Linchen City] in Yulin County, [Longbian City] and [Jiaozhi City] in Jiaozhi County, [Xupu City] in Jiuzhen County ] and [Salty Huancheng].

[General Bun Shop], [Drunken Immortal Wine House] and [Mulin Furniture] are all new things for sale, rare things are expensive, and the profits are quite considerable.

[Jiangjun Baozi Shop] In addition to secret steamed buns, steamed buns, steamed buns, kimchi, porridge, etc., steamed dumplings of different flavors are now added, and the business has been booming.

[Drunken Immortal Wine House] mainly sells [Drunken Immortal] liquor. The liquor is unique, so it is naturally profitable. It is the most profitable of the three, and the supply is still in short supply.

The last [Mulin Furniture] now mainly provides new types of chairs and benches, simple wardrobes, cabinets, wooden beds and other furniture. Not many people are willing to accept such things at the beginning. They don’t want buns and liquor, which are so easy to accept.

However, the General's Mansion has a decree that all county government offices and departments must adopt new office chairs, etc., so the number of purchases is also quite large.At the same time, because it is for the government, the profit will not be too high, but the quantity is large, and the small profit but high turnover should not be underestimated.

In addition, the desks, chairs, office desks and chairs used in future schools and academies are all designated to be purchased at 【Mulin Furniture】.

It is also because of this that Mulin Furniture is the largest among the three. In addition to having furniture-making workshops in Nanhai County and Cangwu County, it also plans to set up workshops in Yulin County and Jiaozhi County to obtain wood locally.

"Is this the benefit brought by the monopoly? ... However, the results achieved are very good, and I will rely on them for the expenses of my mansion in the future."

Now Lu Bu no longer draws money from the treasury of the General's Mansion to meet the expenses of the mansion, but the profits from these shops are used to support daily expenses.
