While the merchants sat outside and tasted the 'return' and wild vegetable soup, Song Ji brought some food to a table a hundred steps away and called the fourteen people.
The fourteen people plus Song Ji represented the broker organizations of Lantian County, which was the future broker house.
Song Ji was the only one in the group, and he was quite smart. He walked among the other broker organizations.
In other words, he was surviving in the cracks. After he obtained some resources, he would give them to the other organizations in exchange for them not to suppress him.
He was always able to get a good deal and share a part of it.
The other broker organizations all wanted to pull him in, but he didn't want to join any of them. When they were helpless, they would protect him.
But today was different, he found a big backer, and the fourteen broker organizations had to give him face.
Lantian County belonged to Ji County, and its economic development was much stronger than other counties.
The broker organizations in Lantian County had a wide range of business, and the amount of money they handled was needless to say.
Normal merchants didn't dare to deal with them, and they also had people in the government office.
Of course! When they met the Li Family Zhuangzi, the fourteen organizations expressed their admiration and were sincerely convinced.
The money went in and out in units of ten thousand taels. Li Dongzhu didn't know the officials in the government office, but they were all taken in.
"Everyone, for this matter, I have a few words to say first."
Song Ji sat down and spoke to the fourteen representatives sitting together at the table.
"Song Ji, speak." A man around fifty years old spoke.
"First, when looking for help, only take the money of the employer, and not the money of the person being hired." Song Ji stretched out a finger.
The fourteen people looked at each other and didn't say anything, expressing their approval.
"Second." Song Ji stretched out another finger: "Only take half of the previous payment, this time the amount of money is a lot."
"Roughly how much?" The man with the goatee asked.
"From what I know, it's ten percent tax. In the future, Lantian County will get no less than ten thousand taels in tax." Song Ji swallowed his saliva when he said this.
"Okay, half." The man with the goatee agreed. The others were still silent.
Song Ji stretched out another finger: "Third, I want to pick five people from each of your people, a total of sixty people."
"Song Ji, do you want to become a scoundrel?" The person with a big mole under his left eye asked.
"That's right. In the past, all of you have looked after me a lot, and there are many people in your line of work who are familiar with me." Song Ji admitted.
"This time, how much are you willing to give up?" The other party asked.
"Eighty percent. I only want twenty percent. The eighty percent will be divided among the fourteen of you. This is the fourth thing I want to talk about." Song Ji raised another finger.
"In the future, will the Li Family Zhuangzi's business matchmaking be done in accordance with this?" The person sitting across from the Song Ji raised his head.
Song Ji remained silent as he stared at the other party. The other party sighed, "Ai! That's fine. This time, we'll get eighty percent. That's not a small amount. "
Song Ji revealed a smile. That's right. You still want to snatch all of the Li Family Zhuangzi's businesses from me? Do you believe that I won't kick you out of the game?
On the other side, in the Li Family Zhuangzi, Li Chengqi was pushing the seed planter back and forth.
Different types of vegetables had different ways of scattering seeds.
Some of them scattered a few seeds in a pit, which was more convenient to use the jukebox.
Another method was to scatter the seeds evenly on the ground and wait for them to grow. After observing for a while, the bad ones would be removed. This was called thinning out the seedlings.
The second method was suitable for pushing carts. The seeds would be scattered as the cart moved, and then the soil would be covered.
It was much more uniform than spreading seeds manually, and the speed was faster. After the ground was turned over and raked, the cart would be moved up and down.
For spinach, cabbage, and shallots, the latter was used.
Shallots were not. Shallots were planted after shallots were grown. The higher the soil was buried, the longer the shallots would be.
"This thing is exquisite. Our alliance wants it. I'll give you the money to buy the technology."
Li Chengqi looked as if he was talking about a business deal. Just now, it was a trial.
Li Yi smiled and did not say anything.
Li Chengqi let go of the armrest and sighed. "Brother Yi, now that the tools you made are useful to the people, every household can save one and a half to two months in a year.
For so many days, even if they don't do other jobs and just rest to recuperate, it will be beneficial to the Tang dynasty. "
"In the future, they will have new jobs to do, so it's impossible for them to rest. Let me think about it and see what kind of work is better. Every household can do it."
Li Yi waved his hand and said with certainty that he had jobs to make the people busy.
At that time, he had done farming and breeding for a year, and the people were idle.
Especially in the northern areas, when the winter was cold, there was nothing to do.
Later, the pace of life became faster, and new jobs appeared one after another. Farming and breeding technology improved.
In the winter, they could make greenhouses and handicrafts, and in the summer, they could do odd jobs.
"What kind of jobs can there be?" Li Chengqi was looking forward to it. He believed that Li Yi could make it happen.
"First of all, we have to distinguish the industrial structure. Agriculture is the primary industry. When we have extra time, we can turn to small individual handicrafts.
When there are more people working in an individual handicrafts, we will move to labor-intensive industries.
In other words, we have to unite the handicrafts and cooperate with each other to improve production efficiency.
At this time, the industry that belongs to the secondary industry is processing in light industry.
Then, the technology will improve and it will start to cooperate with other types of work to form a huge upstream and downstream industrial chain.
What I want to do is to find many handicrafts for them, such as weaving cloth and spinning hemp. The people have been doing it, but it's not enough. "
Li Yi described the development of the industrial structure, from agriculture and handicrafts to cluster and industrial combination.
Li Chengqi thought that he could keep up with the pace after learning for many days.
In the end, he found that there was a fog in front of him.
What is this? There's a routine for everything in the future?
"Brother Yi, have you arranged everything for the future?" Li Chengqi couldn't help but ask.
"It's not appropriate. Every step involves struggle, including the adjustment of industries. The development of society is not static.
Cotton is valuable, and everyone grows cotton. There will be fewer people who grow grain, and the price of grain will be high.
We have to control and adjust. We can't rush up like a swarm of bees. A market economy and a planned economy are not opposite …
Brother, what's wrong with you? Is your head uncomfortable? Do you feel nauseous? "
As Li Yi spoke, he found his brother rubbing his temples and asked with concern.
"It's nothing, Brother Yi. I'm fine. I won't listen to it for now. It's giving me a headache." Li Chengqi shook his head and took a deep breath.
What is Brother Yi talking about? Is this human language? I can understand a single word, but why can't I understand it when put together?
"Brother Yi, I heard from Third Brother that you are willing to take out 50,000 bamboo to make protective tools for swimming?"
Li Chengqi quickly changed the topic to something he understood.
"Yes, Brother, see how many craftsmen are not digging wells. Quickly make them, then rent and sell the good ones. Put the bamboo ones by the river.
By the way, tell the people that those are for saving lives. Don't take them home to burn. There's a lot of firewood, and bamboo is not easy to burn. "
Li Yi decided to use the bamboo today. The premise was that the quality of the people was good.
When he thought of putting the bamboo there, Li Yi suddenly had an idea.
"Brother, I have an idea. Send someone to guard there and see if anyone goes into the water without something. See if anyone wants to steal." Li Yi said.
"What about wages?" Li Chengqi asked a practical question.
"Wages are easy." Li Yi smiled.
