Chapter 913 The eldest grandson is here
Changsun Wuji has not been idle these days and has sent people to the city to investigate the franchise fees. The price given now is the normal franchise fee.
"Can General Changsun accept it?" Tong Fu asked.
It doesn’t matter if you don’t accept it anyway, the price will not change anyway. Now it’s just that the other party likes to buy it or not.
"Can the equipment be produced be delivered after being transported back?" Changsun Wuji asked.
"Yes, you can arrange for people to go to the workshop in Youzhou for short-term training, and it is expected that you can master all the production technology in three days."
"The equipment is all set, and you can start production as long as you ship it back without installation changes."
Changsun Wuji has a clear idea and can use it after taking it back will definitely be a great achievement.
"Okay, then sign the transaction contract."
"Okay, does General Changsun need a set of production equipment?" Tong Fu suddenly asked.
"How is the output of a set?" Changsun Wuji almost forgot about this matter.
"The production of a set of equipment starts about 3,000 yuan throughout the day," Tong Fu said.
Changsun thought that he could produce so much in one day. In his opinion, it was enough for more than a month to produce, which was enough for a short-term consumption. It was useless to buy more sets of equipment.
In the next few days, Zhang Sun Wuji sent his confidants to learn production technology and then returned with the production line.
Li Shimin was a little surprised that Changsun Wuji could complete the task so smoothly. He asked himself that if it were his, he would never sell it, but Changsun Wuji really succeeded.
"Wuji has worked hard all the way, tell me how much I gained from this trip?"
Li Shimin already knew that Changsun Wuji had succeeded, and he had to ask clearly what was going on.
Changsun Wuji told the matter out, and Li De thought he had heard it wrong, so he bought the equipment so easily.
A few days later, Changsun Wuji had already started processing compressed biscuits. After Li Shimin tasted them personally, he decided that the taste was good. It would not be a problem if the soldiers were allowed to eat them for a long time.
The only disadvantage is that the taste is too dry and you need it to eat it with water.
After a moment, you can feel fullness, and the effect is completely true to what is written in the advertisement.
"It's great that compressed dry food will save a lot of time. Wuji, I will ask you for me in front of my father, and take advantage of this time to produce more."
Li Shimin did not forget to give him a message in the end. He knew very well that after he reported this matter, people from the court might come to take over the workshop.
There is nothing in Chang'an City that Li Yuan didn't know. Changsun Wuji's new workshop was to test whether it could really be processed and compressed biscuits. After success, Li Shimin immediately went to the palace to face the saint.
This is the time to take credit for nothing.
"Father, Wuji bought the compressed biscuit production equipment from Youzhou and can now be processed. Erchen has tested it without any problem."
"Haha, since this is the cost, I will ask the Ministry of War to take it out."
It has been confirmed that this workshop will be used specifically to serve the Li family's troops in the future, and it is reasonable to ask the Ministry of War to pay.
A few days later, Li Yuan went to the workshop to check it out. He saw with his own eyes that the process of making compressed biscuits was huge.
Many people have seen automated pressing and forming for the first time. Others would not think that way in front of Li De’s seemingly simple equipment.
"How many iron ore is needed to create such a thing," Li Yuan sighed.
Obviously, the points he is paying attention to seem a bit unique.
The iron and technology that can sell more money is clearly the technology, and no one comes out to correct it at this time. After Li Shimin completed the task, he was no longer concerned about this matter. It was not that he did not pay attention to it, but that he was really helpless.
It’s better to spend so much time on things that are good for him.
Li Yuan stayed in the workshop for a long time and was still very interested in novel things. Although he didn't know much about technology, he also saw problems from it.
"Compressed biscuits are very good, but they consume too much food. Can you guys have good solutions to food reserves?"
Li Yuan handed over the problem to the ministers.
Food is the most important thing. The royal family's money is not inexhaustible. In the final analysis, there is a way to deal with it.
The ministers became worried that there was not much uncultivated land near Chang'an, even if all of them were reclaimed, it would not solve the problem of food shortage in Chang'an.
"Southern grain transported to Chang'an through the canal, and to solve the grain problem, we need to broaden the canal waterway."
"If His Majesty broadens the waterway, which involves various forces, it may be hindered by the strength of all parties. The purchase of grain still needs to be purchased from large grain merchants in the south."
"Your Majesty, I think you can buy food from Youzhou compared to the southern route."
"How can Youzhou be a hostile force give money to the enemy?"
"Why can't it be? If you can buy grain, it can also weaken the other party's reserves. Besides, Youzhou has enough grain reserves, otherwise they will not sell them to the outside world. If they don't buy, they won't become stronger."
The ministers in the court started to argue after a few words. The food issue is a major issue. Many people are thinking of solutions.
"Okay, don't argue anymore, as long as you can buy food."
Li Yuan didn't care whether he had bought grain from Youzhou or not, it would be enough to solve the problem of grain reserves. His plan was to have territory to cultivate and reclaim the land and grain problem after occupying more forces.
His idea actually works, that is, the places he occupied must be vast and sparsely populated, and farming fields like Chang'an and Luoyang, which are not far away.
"Then send someone to Youzhou to purchase grain. Who would you like to visit?"
Li Yuan became serious and did not require money to buy food. He spent a little less money he accumulated.
It will take at least one year to earn back from taxes. It will be a little bit more than enough.
The ministers were no longer in motion, so they turned their eyes to Li Shimin.
"I will leave this matter to you." Li Yuan said.
"yes."
Li Shimin agreed, so he said this to Changsun Wuji again.
"Wuji brought all the money he had saved from selling wood, and hired a caravan to take the wood together to use it as money for purchasing grain."
Changsun Wuji immediately started to arrange the food that the court had enough money and needed his caravan to transport invisibly, and of course he could not forget to purchase grain for the King of Qin.
This is the purpose of transporting wood over. The caravans are full of goods and they don’t leave them empty. They make money.
Changsun Wuji, who had just returned from Youzhou, went to Youzhou again.
When the people guarding the Youzhou City Palace heard that Changsun Wuji was coming again, they were curious if they wanted to purchase more processing equipment this time.
Changsun Wuji didn't even know that he had become a commercial customer in Youzhou, and they all wanted to see how much benefits he could squeeze out.
