Song Dynasty Iron Armored Army

Chapter 97 Soap out of stock
The return of Shi Xiu and the joining of Yang Lin and Deng Fei made Chai Lin's manpower a lot easier. As the saying goes, it is easy to get a thousand soldiers, but it is hard to find a general. Although these two people's martial arts are not first-rate, they still have a third-rate level. , After a few more years of training, it is still no problem to become a second-rate general.

After dinner, Chai Lin made arrangements: "Brother Shi Xiu, you go to Shiqian's as an assistant, and you are in charge of spying on intelligence. You usually eat, sleep and train, and you only go out when you have something to do. How about it?"

Shi Xiudao: "No problem, brother arranges it."

"Yang Lin, Deng Fei, you two will go to Cangzhou to arrest the envoy's yamen for the time being, and follow me and Erlang to get acquainted with the situation first, and come back to the army in the spring of next year." Chai Lin said.

The two were very happy, they didn't expect Chai Daguan to be so powerful, so he directly arranged for them to work in the yamen.

"Okay, everything will be arranged by my brother." The two clasped their fists together.

"Then it's settled. I have too many things to do, so I can't accompany the three brothers. You will stay in this guest room tonight, and ride to Cangzhou City with Erlang tomorrow morning." Chai Linan said.

After making arrangements, Chai Lin left, and Shi Xiu and the three settled down in the guest room. Zhuang Ding sent three new clothes inside and outside, changed and washed for the three, and prepared soap and hot water for bathing and changing clothes.

Chailin had a lot of things to do when he came back this time. Of course, Chailin asked to see the progress of the factory.

In the packaging factory, more than a dozen female workers are working continuously, putting pieces of soap into pasted colored paper bags, then sealing them and putting them into wooden boxes. 100 yuan for a wooden box. This kind of wooden box is professionally made for the convenience of mule transportation. It is of moderate size and convenient for loading and unloading.

The housekeeper, Chai An, was checking the accounts with several accountants. Seeing that Chai Lin was coming, he put down what he was doing and came back to life.

The two went to the guest room to discuss in detail.

"Master, the supply of soap will be out of stock in the next few days, is the supply limited?" Chai An asked.

Chai Lin didn't believe it, and was worried about how to sell it some time ago, saying: "No way, we have only developed a few places, and our daily output is 30 yuan."

"Master, I don't know. During this period of time, there are many new agents. Chaicheng, Gaotang Prefecture asked for 30 pieces of soap and five carriages. The agent of Lingzhou, Zengtou City, asked for 20 pieces of soap and 10 carriages. Hujiazhuang, the agent of Dongping Prefecture, asked for two batches, [-] pieces of soap, and eight carriages. Li Jiazhuang, the agent of Yanzhou Prefecture, asked for [-] yuan of soap and five taels of horse-drawn carriages. Zhujiazhuang represented Xingrenfu, and Shi Wenbing’s family represented Zhending There is also a rich and powerful business firm in Jeju Prefecture. Xuzhou, Danzhou, and Puzhou also have agents, and the basic starting point for getting goods is [-] yuan, and the supply of raw materials is also limited, so the factory cannot produce unlimited production. Ann said.

Chai Lin was surprised. He just came back from business half a month ago. How come there are so many agents in a blink of an eye. It seems that his uncle is really awesome and has helped a lot.

"Also, Mr. Su introduced an agent from Ying Tianfu. He should be a brother of Mr. Su's family. He just transported 30 yuan of soap and ten carriages yesterday. So the current situation is that the production speed of soap can't keep up. , There is still a large surplus of carriages, and there are hundreds of them in stock." Chai An introduced.

Chai Lin made up his mind and said: "Uncle An, don't worry, you need to attract investment, you have to attract investment, one piece of soap can last for a long time, these agents have purchased so much at once, it will take a month or two before they get the second order. You arrange Zhou Fu, then have an agent come to talk, limit the quantity of supply, and the quantity of each purchase should not exceed 10 yuan, once a month. When the production volume increases, the restriction will be released."

Chai An nodded, and said: "I reckon that Zengtou City in Lingzhou sold the soap to the Dajin Kingdom in the north, otherwise, how could they ask for so much at once. Besides, Ying Tianfu, who is represented by Mr. Su's family, is probably just a scam. The goods have arrived in Jiangnan."

Chailin is also helpless. It is normal for dealers to sell goods. Now that there are no mobile phones, no telephones, and inconvenient transportation, there is no way to form strict control over dealers. We can only estimate the quantity. Resellers are limited in the number of purchases.

Chai Lin said proudly, "How about it, Uncle An, is our family spending more and more money? Don't worry about money now."

Chai An's face was full of joy, and he said happily: "The owner of the village is wise and powerful, and the things he made are extraordinary. A few days ago, he spent 8000 taels of silver to collect shipbuilding miscellaneous wood from the local area and recruit craftsmen. Today is another 6000 taels of silver." There are still 5000 taels of silver in the treasury for the extra money for horses, and 20 taels of silver is still available if you count the four-wheeled carts in stock.”

"I have so much money, more than 6 taels. No, I have to find a way to spend it as soon as possible. Uncle An, you have to arrange two things. One is to buy a small paper-making workshop and see if it is going to go bankrupt. In the paper mill that went down, even the craftsmen and equipment were bought, and they can start production after the spring. The other is that our village needs to set up a caravan. We will start slowly and develop from small to large. At the very least, there must be a few hundred heads. The transportation capacity of mules is good. I found out on this trip that the traffic in Song Dynasty is very backward. Basically, the official roads are connected with carts, and only mules can be used in other places. Mules, carts, and boats constitute a transportation system. Nothing less.” Chailin said.

Chai An said: "The young master is always in such a hurry, the manpower can't keep up, can't you take it easy?"

"Slow? Can't slow down. Uncle An, have you forgotten what I told you? The Jin soldiers will go south in another ten years. By then, our Song Dynasty will be gone. How many people will die under the sword soldiers? Hurry up, Uncle An." Chai Lin said anxiously.

Chai An hurriedly got up and looked around, but there was no one outside the door, so he said with confidence: "Young Master, I know, but you must be careful about what you say. This is a secret, and you can't say it casually. Prepare the capital to survive the troubled times. I think that Li Yun is a talent. The small business in the Hero Building in the old city is assigned to the management of the Zuixian Building. Artisans of all kinds.”

"Uncle An has a good vision, so let's do what you want. But Uncle An, I have a proposal. As the manager, you use this place as a manager's office. You can recruit two assistants, two deputy managers, and a few more. It is a high-level accounting room. Under the deputy manager is the responsible manager of various businesses, such as the manager of horse breeding, and then opened a branch, which is still under the management of the manager, called branch management. The business is similar, Zhou Fu is in charge of our various products Its external sales, the operation of chain restaurants, and at the same time, there is also a subsidiary company below, that is, the four seas car dealership. I am directly responsible for the several factories in the village that involve secret machines. Just communicate." Chai Lin told Chai An the blueprint design of the business group.

Chai An understood it as soon as he heard it, and suddenly realized, "Master, this is a good way, so I won't be so tired."
