Datang: Time travel in two months, wait online, hurry up!

"His Royal Highness is indeed the God of Wealth of the Tang Dynasty, the villain is very impressed!"

Everyone couldn't help but exclaimed, and expressed their deep admiration for Li Ke.

"Everyone, don't be happy so early, the agency right is not so easy to get."

Li Ke smiled slightly, this group of people seemed to be happy a little early?

These people thought the agency right belonged to their family?

Take what you want?

"Your Highness, I don't know how to obtain this agency right?"

Everyone was startled, and at the same time realized that they and others seemed to be really happy too early.

How could Li Ke give them the agency so easily?

But even with the conditions, they still want to get the agency!

"With auctions, each state has a different market and different prices."

"The four big states of Yangzhou, Yizhou, Jingzhou, and Bingzhou undoubtedly have the highest agency prices."

"Besides, winning the agency right doesn't mean that the agency right will always be yours. Each agency period is 5 years!"

"After 5 years, the agency right expires, and if you want to be an agent again, you need to re-auction to obtain the agency right."

Li Ke briefly introduced to them the way to obtain agency rights.

When did he ever lose money?

Of course, agency rights have to be bought with money!

And want to buy a permanent agency right with one purchase?

Want to eat fart!

The period is five years, and it will be auctioned again after the expiration date!

These businessmen want to make money, and he naturally wants to make money.

Moreover, he has to make money twice!

He wholesales the products he produces to them and makes a fortune.

Then the agency rights are auctioned every five years, which can also make a fortune.

These businessmen are working for him!

"Auction? Every five years?"

After listening to Li Ke's words, everyone fell into deep thought.

It seems to be calculating whether to win the agency right or not.

But soon, they understood a truth.

If all the market in one place is given to you to do business alone, and you can’t earn agency fees within five years, then you might as well change your career!

Therefore, everyone stopped hesitating immediately and looked at Li Ke one after another.

"Your Highness, the villain is willing to participate in the auction of agency rights!"

"Your Highness, the villain also wants to participate in the auction!"

"Your Highness, the villain wants to win the agency right of Yangzhou!"

Everyone wants to win the agency right, and even those who are capable want to win the agency right in Yangzhou!

You must know that the agency rights of the four states are the highest!

"There's no rush for the proxy auction."

"The king still needs to make a reasonable starting price based on the market in each state."

Li Ke is not in a hurry, after all, the workshop has not yet been established, and productivity has not yet recovered.

As long as the agency right is determined before the product is produced.

Now, he needs someone to come up with a reasonable starting price.

"Yes, Your Highness!"

Although everyone couldn't wait, Li Ke had already spoken, so they could only wait.

"This king believes that the next task for you should be to raise money, after all, agency rights are not cheap."

Li Ke smiled, looked at everyone and said something.

Let's raise more money, and send more money to me!

"Your Highness said yes."

Everyone nodded.

At the same time, I made up my mind that I really need to raise more money when I go back.

Especially those who are ambitious and want to win the agency rights of the big state.

After all, although Dazhou agency rights are the most expensive, the market is also the largest!

There are many ways for them to get their money back as long as they get the agency.

The businessmen soon went back to raise money.

Li Ke looked at Xie Wan'er.

"Datang 360 states, each state makes a market judgment based on population and economy, and then gives a starting price."

Li Ke explained to Xie Wan'er.

This task is still relatively complicated, and there are too many things to calculate.

It is necessary to consider the economy and population of each state to determine the consumption capacity of the state's market.

Then how much money can be earned each year, and how much can be earned in five years in total.

Then take the total profit of five years as the price of the agency right and so on.

Therefore, Li Ke told those businessmen that there was no rush to auction the agency rights, because the calculation work in the early stage was too cumbersome.

"Yes, Your Highness!"

Xie Wan'er also knew that this task required a lot of work.

But since it was Li Ke's confession, she must do her best to do it well.

"Meiniang, help Wan'er if you have time."

Li Ke then looked at Wu Meiniang again.

"Yes, Your Highness!"

Wu Meiniang also nodded obediently.

Li Ke asked her to help Xie Wan'er, first because the amount of work for this task was indeed a bit large.

The second is because of her recognition of her ability!

Obviously, Li Ke recognized her ability, which made her very happy.

Leaving them to work in the Dudu's Mansion, Li Ke left the Dudu's Mansion with Su Dingfang and a pair of soldiers.

Li Ke asked Yangzhou Sima to come over.

"The next official Yangzhou Sima Xiang Ziang sees Your Highness!"

Xiang Ziang toasted him at the banquet that day, and Li Ke remembered him.

"Is there a shipyard in Yangzhou?"

Li Ke asked Xiang Ziang.

Shipbuilding is one of the things he wants to focus on when he comes to Yangzhou!

After all, only by building a large ship that can go to the ocean can we sail to the deep blue!

Without a big boat, it is impossible to move an inch!

"His Royal Highness, there is a shipyard in Yangzhou, and the scale is not small"

Xiang Ziang immediately reported to Li Kehui.

After all, Yangzhou is close to the sea, so it is normal to have a shipyard.

Not only that, the shipyard in Yangzhou can build big ships!

That is, the kind of big ship that can sail on the sea.

"Oh? Take me to have a look."

Hearing this, Li Ke immediately became interested.

Although he knew very well that with Datang's shipbuilding technology, he would definitely not be able to build the kind of big ship he needed.

But it is also very good to have a shipyard with a good foundation.

At least the start would be much faster, otherwise he would have to start from scratch, which would be a waste of time.

Yangzhou's shipyard is by the sea, and Yangzhou City is at the confluence of the canal and the Yangtze River.

Therefore, Li Ke and his party took a boat, entered the Yangtze River along the canal, and then followed the Yangtze River to the mouth of the sea.

Li Ke deliberately looked in the direction of Jiangnan for a while, where is the current Huating County, which is the future Greater Shanghai.

This is also where he will focus on building next.

Following the coastline, the ship soon came to the shipyard.

"Your Highness, this is the shipyard."

Xiang Ziang introduced to Li Ke.

Li Ke looked at the shipyard in front of him, and had to say that the scale was indeed quite large.

After entering the shipyard, Li Ke noticed that many craftsmen were building ships.

And build multiple ships at the same time.

It's just that from the perspective of Li Ke's future generations, these ships may be called big ships in this era.

But still nowhere near the boat he wanted.

"Your Highness, this is Zheng Tiancheng, the head of the shipyard, and the best shipbuilder."

Xiang Ziang introduced Li Ke to the director of the shipyard and chief shipbuilder.

"The villain has seen His Royal Highness King Wu!"

Zheng Tiancheng immediately saluted Li Ke respectfully.

Zheng Tiancheng is about 50 years old, probably sunbathing by the sea all the year round, his skin is very dark.

"What size ships are being built in the shipyard now?"

Li Ke asked Zheng Tiancheng a question.

"The shipyard can build a large ship of about 1 material at most."

Zheng Tiancheng reported to Li Ke the shipbuilding limit capacity of the shipyard.

Hearing this, Li Ke didn't understand how big Yi material's ship was.

After all, modern ships are generally described in terms of displacement.

But a ship with a thousand materials is being built in the shipyard.

Li Ke made a rough estimate of 5.8, and estimated the displacement to be about 2 tons.

In this era, it is indeed a big ship.

After all, the ships of Zheng He's voyages in the Ming Dynasty unearthed by later generations are only about 3 materials.

"This boat is not big enough, a bigger boat is needed!"

Li Ke shook his head, apparently dissatisfied with this huge boat.

"Your Highness, this is already the biggest boat a villain can build."
