Chapter 27
(Happy Dragon Boat Festival)
Tens of thousands of people poured into the small Qingyun Valley, making Li Xian very busy. You know, these people are almost all disabled soldiers, the best ones have lost a few fingers, and the worst ones have lost their arms. It is really a huge challenge to take care of tens of thousands of people like this.
Not to mention, the disabled soldiers came, and their family members also came—soon to come, still packing up their belongings; it is estimated that in the next ten days, 30,000 people will pour into the valley.
The grain and grass sent from Anyang City were stored in piles, and the factory managers were recruiting workers loudly; the scene was chaotic; but it could be seen that most of the disabled soldiers were very happy, they shouted loudly One's own cultivation base, one's own specialty. Is there a manpower problem? It is estimated that there will be no headache for a long time.
For these disabled soldiers, Li Xian gave the same salary as ordinary craftsmen. To put it bluntly, the reason why these disabled soldiers were disabled was because they fought for the Li family.
The building of the Great Xia Kingdom is about to collapse now, and places like Anyang are actually the back garden of the Li family. Facing his own back garden, Li Xian is also very attentive.
In the evening, Song Xing and his group rushed over in a hurry. They rushed continuously and frantically. They hadn't rested for more than three days, and they rode wildly almost the whole time.
"Thanks for your hard work." Li Xian was really moved when he saw the four people in a hurry. Originally, according to Li Xian's idea, it was enough for them to reach Wuyang City in three days, but they ran back and forth in three days.
"Master, the three gentlemen said that within three days, 2,500 shi of textile materials will be delivered, and the three young masters will also come in person; we have been on the road for a day and a half, and they will arrive the day after tomorrow.
In addition, Wang's neon lights firm imitated our lights! Without further ado, Song Xing unwrapped the package from behind and explained clearly what he found out.
"The Wang family?" Li Xian sneered, "You did a good job. Sir, give each of them one tael of gold for their hard work, and then equalize Song Xing's cost. In addition, reward Song Xing with 50 taels of gold. "
"Thank you, Young Master." Song Xing was overjoyed.
After Song Xing and the others left, Xu Ren suddenly said, "Master, you have rewarded too much."
"A lot?" Li Xian shook his head, "Not much. Sir, what are you working so hard for? To put it bluntly, it's just a word 'profit'. I just want to tell them that as long as they do things for me, I will There are rewards; those who do the right thing will be rewarded; those who have done important things, even those who have taken the initiative to do important things, will be rewarded generously!
The reward must at least exceed their expectations in order to truly unite people's hearts. "
Xu Ren smiled wryly, "Young master, I know you are right, but now there are only three hundred taels of gold left in the treasury, and next month's salary for the craftsmen is not enough."
Li Xian laughed boldly, "Sir, let's quickly build a second money bank. Before the new year, it is estimated that there will be ten thousand taels of gold in the bank. Haha...
Behold, sir, the wonders of industrial power. "
After returning to the research department, everyone turned on the lanterns produced by the Wang family for inspection.
After carefully inspecting all the colored lights, Tang Rong came to a conclusion: "With the switch and imitating our grounding wire technology, it has a service life of one year. The only difference from ours is that there is no shell made of glass. "
Li Xian looked very calm, "It's completely expected to be imitated. There are too many strange people in the world. But don't worry, let them be proud for a while. For the time being, our energy will be focused on weaving.
But it cannot be completely inactive. Well, I think not only the Wang family imitated, but other families and even countries must have imitated.
Mr. Sun Ming, the business of the lantern firm is still based on brand management, increasing the production and sales of mirrors; starting today, we will give up all low-end markets and focus all our energy on mid- and high-end markets. We want to be the leader of the industry bellwether.
In addition, we have to target another market, the top market.
I have a design here called 'Crystal Chandelier', a chandelier that is specially hung in the center of the beam. For the switch, some low-grade, leftover sea soul silk is used as the wire.
In addition, Aunt He asked Aunt He to weave a gorgeous coat for these sea soul silk. On the one hand, it is to protect the sea soul silk, and on the other hand, it is also beautiful. For this jacket, the thickness of the chopsticks is enough, but there must be a variety of colors, so that people can choose freely.
The sea soul silk is also sold separately, is it priced, one meter and five taels of gold, and our unit of measurement is introduced by the way.
Are the crystal chandeliers priced? All are priced in gold. At least nine crystal chandeliers were made years ago. There should be golden yellow and rich, red enchanting, crystal pure, lavender luxurious, light blue enchanting, foggy white hazy, elegant yellow and soft, candlelight warm, and candlelight. Colorful.
Among them, the golden ones will be sent to the palace, and we will tell everyone that what we do is the best. The remaining eight are up for auction!
When making a crystal chandelier, all the materials are the best and most expensive, and some hanging rings are made of stainless steel. To ensure a two-year service life and a ten-year maintenance guarantee, various pure-color glasses that have been researched are also used. After doing so much preparation, this is the moment we've been waiting for!
I want them to know that they can only look up to our back forever, and can only do the low-end market that we abandoned. "
At the end, Li Xian was in high spirits.
Sun Ming is always strong, "Nine is no problem at all, even ninety is not a problem. There are ready-made molds for crystal chandeliers."
Li Xian smiled, "Teacher, what is rare is the most precious thing. Since it is the top market, we must keep the market in a state of hunger and thirst. As long as we control the sea soul silk, as long as we control the pure color glass technology, this top market will be ours." In the private market, others can only drool.”
Sun Ming looked at Li Xian for a long time, and once again affirmed his evaluation: "A profiteer!"
Li Xian is not usually thick-skinned: "I will be a teacher and praise me. In addition, from now on, all the lanterns will be replaced with a two-year lifespan, and the price will be increased by half. Since we are going to the mid-to-high-end market, we will Quality has to be done.”
The corner of Sun Ming's mouth twitched, and he sighed helplessly, "The longest formation we have researched can last for five years, as long as the Nayuan formation uses a little sea soul silk, and it only needs to be three inches long."
"Then change it for five years." Li Xian was generous once in a while.
"Are you so generous?" Sun Ming couldn't believe that this little profiteer was so generous?
Li Xian showed his tail in the next sentence, "The price has increased by 10 times."
"Pretend I didn't tell you." Sun Ming retreated in defeat.
The research department was full of joy for a while; after a long time of contact, everyone is no longer unfamiliar with each other, and Li Xian has truly integrated into the world of these "former craftsmen".
The joyful atmosphere permeated the entire Qingyun Valley. Two days later, the families of the disabled soldiers also slowly moved over. For these disabled soldiers, being able to work again is not only because of the extra income, but more importantly - life has a new meaning and there is hope for the future.
But what was even more lively was in the evening two days later, when the sun was setting, a long line of carriages spanning 1,500 miles appeared in front of Qingyun Valley, and a total of 2,500 shi of textile materials were delivered.
