Datang: Li Shimin begged me to rebel

Chapter 168 I, Li Ke, pay twice the salary, do you follow?

Follow or not is a question and a choice, but in fact there is no choice, because Li Ke has already touted them in the Datang Weekly, and then used that comment column to steal their reputation. The consequence of this is that they follow... The people may have a good impression of them, but they don't think it was their initiative and spontaneity, but they are more grateful to Li Ke.

But if they don't follow!The fun will be even more fucking great, and the common people will feel that they are not sincere at all. If Li Ke guides them again, their reputation will probably be stinky.

Fortunately, this is a strategy that hurts both sides. To put it bluntly, I will kill you with money, but originally I killed one thousand enemies and lost eight hundred, but now I may kill one thousand enemies and lose one thousand.

acceptable!

Oh shit!followed!Changsun Wuji gritted his teeth and made up his mind. It would be difficult to retreat after this wave followed.

But he admitted that Li Ke would not want to get rid of it anyway. The number of craftsmen Li Ke would recruit to maintain Chang'an City far exceeded them, and not only doubled, but at least tens of thousands.So they still win!

Changsun Wuji gave orders directly.

Li Ke has been keeping an eye on Chang'an City Chief Sun Wuji's situation. When the blacksmith shop belonging to Chang Sun's family also started to increase their salary by five times, Li Ke directly ordered Tian Meng to start.

Several blacksmith shops in Chang'an City have posted the latest news: a monthly salary of 1 to 200 Wen is recruiting experienced apprentice craftsmen!A monthly salary of 10 to hire a blacksmith!One day off every 7 days, work clothes and food included!Even willing to sign a three-year long-term employment contract!

As soon as the news came out, everyone was dumbfounded!Everyone including Changsun Wuji and the Zheng family were stunned, this... ten times!Is Li Ke crazy?Where did he get so much money?At this time, you don't need to think about it, only Li Ke can do such a crazy thing!

Are you afraid of ten times?Li Ke sneered. If he wanted, he could drive twenty times more, because next Li Ke will expand the number of blacksmiths on a large scale. Experienced apprentice craftsmen are better, because they work in the blacksmith shop for a long time, regardless of their physical strength. Still can do some basic work well.

The important thing is that the main source of income for the Changsun family is the blacksmith shop and iron mines!Li Ke is now going to dig the roots of the grandson's family!Ten times the salary is nothing to Li Ke, mainly because of his pig iron production, the price of the ironware he produces will be very low!

Even if he hired ten times the salary, and then also made an iron pot and sold it at a fraction of the price of Changsun's blacksmith shop, Li Ke's profit was huge!At least, Li Ke's goal is to get an iron pot for everyone in Datang's family!

There were already iron pots in the Tang Dynasty, but only rich merchants and dignitaries could afford them, and it was impossible for ordinary people to use iron pots.

This thing is manufactured... Let alone in the territory of Datang, even if it is sold outside of Datang, it will be a bestseller!Luxury!

During the Northern Song Dynasty, the efficiency of ironmaking was greatly improved, and iron pots began to enter the homes of ordinary people. However, at that time, the iron pots sold to the West through the Silk Road in the Song Dynasty were sold as luxury goods! !Iron pots sold in the Kingdom of Jin, Mongolia and other countries can sell for 100 taels of silver each!This thing can be used as a wedding dowry or even a betrothal gift in Mongolia, Jin, and Liao at that time.

When it is exported to Dashi and other places, it can be exchanged for gold.

And in the Tang Dynasty, after the iron pot was made, you don't need to think about how precious it is!

During the reign of Song Huizong in the Great Song Dynasty, the annual output of steel was only about 900 million catties, or about 4500 tons, but Li Ke’s blast furnace ironmaking now... Anyway, one furnace of iron can be close to more than one ton of pig iron. What matters is the output of coal and iron ore mining, not the rate at which steel is smelted.

With the efficiency of blast furnaces, hundreds of blast furnaces can be manufactured, and Li Ke can smelt thousands of tons in a month.

So, what is ten times the monthly salary?Li Ke wants to play, and he can afford to drive it a hundred times.

But ten times is still in line with the law of the market, and one hundred times is not in line with the laws of the market, and ten times is already enough.

I want to see if your eldest grandson's family will follow?If you don't follow, let me see how you can feed these people?

The biggest way for Li Ke to make profits is naturally ironware. With so many blacksmiths starting to make ironware, all the common people who work here will be able to buy iron pots and plows at a price of [-]% off Li Ke's foreign market price. Ironware such as heads, kitchen knives, etc.

So how much money will Li Ke send out, and how much money will he have to return in the end?Isn't money just a matter of left hand and right hand?

For common people, maybe they have to hesitate about iron pots, but plowshares, which are related to productivity, will definitely be the first to buy!

Therefore, Li Ke wanted to see what the Changsun family could do. He is now because the ironware can still have a high profit, but what should he do when he finds that the ironware can no longer be sold?

Originally, Li Ke didn't plan to trouble them, but everyone had a conflict just now, and now it's halftime, I will renovate my Chang'an City and make more money, how good?

You see you're making trouble for me behind your back, right?Let's dig a hole!

Changsun Wuji had no choice but to temporarily gather Zheng You and others together to discuss countermeasures.

"Do you have the latest news about the King of Shu?" Changsun Wuji looked at them and asked.

"No." Everyone shook their heads.

"This... is he crazy?" Changsun Wuji frowned, he had some headaches, why did his policies that are always beneficial to Li Ke often fail?The point is, what on earth does Li Ke rely on? !Could it be that he, Li Ke, descended from a god?Get what you want?Or did the craftsman in his hands really research something good?

Is the power of this craftsman really so strong?Is it enough to change the situation in Datang?Changsun Wuji really couldn't figure it out.

"We also can't figure it out. The three-year long contract means that he can support these people for at least three years. Although the other party is only targeting apprentice craftsmen who have worked in the blacksmith shop, the salary is too high, and the master's salary is too high. The salary is even higher! If we can keep the masters, their household registrations are in our hands after all, but most of the apprentice craftsmen may not be able to keep them." Zheng You said with some headaches.

The Zheng family was actually fine, and it didn't matter if their blacksmith shop was open or not, but Li Ke's move directly blocked the life of the eldest grandson's family.

The main sources of profit for the Changsun family are all iron ore and iron-related industries!

"Eldest Sun Sikong? Are we still following?" Zheng You asked hesitantly. The blacksmiths here are their family and the eldest grandson's family. Although the other houses also have blacksmith shops in this area, they are more for them. It doesn't matter if you use it yourself or turn it off, even if the outside world can't recruit blacksmith apprentices, they can use servants.

But Changsun's family and Zheng's family can't do it, their gap is too big.
