Tang Dynasty good husband

Chapter 116 I Want This

High cost……

Li Shimin grinned, wishing he could kill Qin Chao with his palm.

Cheng Yaojin said that the cost was very high, Niu Jinda also said that the cost was very high, and now Qin Chao also said that the cost was very high, but none of the three people gave a specific figure.

Li Shimin is not a fool, he can't come here to inspect without any preparation, no matter how high the cost is, there must be a figure, right?
Anyway, before leaving the palace, Li Shimin asked someone to ask the young prisoner who will be the prisoner. The manufacturing process of this kind of equipment is not complicated. Except for the two ends that need to be reinforced, the other parts can basically be formed in one go to ensure the production level of the prisoner. Well, a craftsman can make one set in a day without saying anything, and the general supervisor only collected [-] guan for one set.

Iron is a controlled item, but for these nobles, the control is not strict. As long as it is not for building weapons, as long as the quantity of other things is not large, the supervisor will add a little money to help make them.

Twenty guan, four wells can earn back the cost. Even with the labor cost of Datang’s highest salary offered by Qin Chao, five wells are enough to recover the cost. In the future, each well will earn at least four guan. Li Shimin did not believe that a set of equipment can only drill five wells.

"The cost is really high, equipment cost, labor cost, wear and tear cost, energy cost, intellectual property cost, left and right scheduling cost, tax cost..." Qin Chao began to wrinkle his fingers one by one Talking about it, anyway, it means one thing, he really doesn't make money by digging a well.

"Wait, equipment, labor, and wear and tear are all normal, and the amount of scheduling can be counted, but what are the energy and intellectual property costs?" Changsun Wuji hurriedly called Qin Chao to stop, and asked with deep doubts road.

The ministers also looked at Qin Chao one after another, saying so many costs miscellaneously. If they hadn't been prepared in their hearts, they might have mistakenly thought that this guy would lose money by digging a well after listening to Qin Chao's words.

Qin Chao covered the black line on his forehead, and secretly scolded the unknown official for being too talkative, but he didn't dare to say it out loud. Li Shimin also showed a curious expression, and Qin Chao was so angry that he cursed in his heart, so he could only continue to snap his fingers and start Calculated:
"A set of equipment is [-] guan. According to the current situation, a set of equipment can drill about [-] yuan. On average, the cost of equipment is about [-] yuan per well, and the labor cost is [-] yuan per well. The cost of a set of pipes and water lifting devices is [-] yuan. The equipment will be worn to varying degrees every time it is used. number above.

The energy cost is the energy expended by the minister and the shareholders. The minister and others are so hard to promote, arrange and dispatch to help people dig wells, can't they make no money, right?Otherwise, what will the minister wait for?What to drink?So this cost is counted as [-] yuan per well.

As for the cost of intellectual property rights, this is easy to understand. It is like a person inventing a product, and there is only one in the world, and businessmen all over the world come here to buy goods. There is a difference between the purchase price and the cost price. This difference is called the cost of intellectual property rights, and the businessman resells it, which is called profit.The cost is five hundred yuan per Jingchen, which is already a price of conscience.

For other miscellaneous expenses, each well is worth [-] yuan.As for the last commercial tax, according to the law of the imperial court, officials who have officials choose one out of ten, which is called taxation.So the business tax is five hundred qian.

Five hundred, four hundred, one hundred... Leaving aside the cost of wear and tear, the cost of each well is three guan. In addition, the end of the year will also provide benefits to the workers. It was agreed earlier that the number of wells will be based on the number of wells drilled. For distribution, a reward of [-] renminbi is given for each well drilled, so the actual cost of each well is between [-] renminbi and [-] renminbi for each well.

However, I can only earn less than 330 yuan from each well. It has to be divided among three people. Calculating it, I don’t earn much. I invested [-] yuan. Just to recover the cost, I need to pay [-] yuan. Three wells..."

Qin Chao was talking nonsense with a serious face, whether he has it or not, let's count it in first, anyway, in the end, he just needs to let Li Shimin understand that he doesn't make money from drilling wells, and he may even lose money in the first year.

What Qin Chao said was serious, but the people present didn't believe it at all.

If it really doesn't make money as he said, would that old man Cheng Yaojin agree to take a share?Would someone as shrewd as Niu Jinda agree to take a share?
But believe it or not, all the ministers still admire Qin Chao's ability to talk nonsense. If he can enter the court, he will definitely have a good mouth.

It is even possible to replace Tang Jian.

"If you don't make money, why should Qin Shaoqing waste time? Why don't you sell the matter of drilling the well to the imperial court, and the imperial court will take over the subsequent troubles, so that Qin Shaoqing can concentrate on cultivating potatoes." Changsun Wuji chuckled cheaply.

No one would believe anyone who said they couldn't make money. Qin Chao made a big deal out of it. After all, only [-] yuan of equipment money and labor were considered costs, but these were not a problem for the court at all.

The equipment was originally made by the imperial court, and there was as much as they needed, not to mention the labor. They could just call in corvee, and only had two meals a day. If calculated, the average cost of a well was less than [-] yuan.

There are some things that are hard for Li Shimin to say, but Changsun Wuji dares to say them.

What the imperial court needs most now is a new thing that can attract the attention of the people at no cost or less.

And there is nothing in the whole world that can compare with such a good job as digging a well.

If the imperial court can announce this news, all the bad rumors before will come to an abrupt end, and will be replaced by praise, flattery, and respect for the emperor.

'kindness?This plot seems wrong..." Qin Chao was taken aback suddenly, why did this cheeky guy want to take away his golden egg?
"Your Majesty, it's not impossible to hand over to the court, but what about the wounded and retired soldiers? The ministers and others have promised them..." Cheng Yaojin instantly turned into a good baby, which surprised Qin Chao.

"Well, you really can't break your promise. How about this, one person from each household will be selected to master well drilling skills, and then one person will lead a team to be responsible for a well." Li Shimin nodded and agreed to Cheng Yaojin's conditions.

"Your Majesty is holy..." All the lieutenant generals flattered and flattered.

Anyway, their goal has been achieved, one person per household, the result is not bad, and the wages are paid according to what was said before, so why are they dissatisfied?

And the only one who was dissatisfied was Qin Chao.

"No, Your Majesty, what about me? This method was thought up by the minister, and the plan was also proposed by the minister. Why is there no business for the minister now?" Qin Chao wanted to cry but turned around in a hurry.

Although he knew that his dream of getting rich might have been shattered, Qin Chao was still not reconciled. It was a good project that could earn tens of thousands of dollars a year, so why did he say nothing about it?
"Your Majesty, Qin Shaoqing's actions are indisputable. They benefit the country and the people, and solve His Majesty's worries and problems. I feel that Qin Shaoqing should be rewarded." Changsun Wuji continued to stand up and said with a face that deserved a beating.

Li Shimin nodded, with a very approving expression, and said: "Well, it is indeed a reward, so I will be named the male of Jianguo County in Jingyang, and I will be rewarded with a hundred acres of land."
