Chapter 17 He doesn’t have much money and he’s not stupid
Poor Badis, who had been an unpleasant soldier for the first half of his life, was even more confused after hearing such a convoluted explanation. Finally, he couldn't bear it and said: "As long as there is something worth so much money.
, the rest, I just want to see if you can really pay that much dividends."
"That's right, this is what I need, Bardis, you have helped me a lot." Alphonse took the piece of paper back from Bardis, folded it carefully and put it in his pocket.
Then he continued to ask: "Have some basic data of the artillery been calculated? There is also the issue of polishing and installing the fusilla engine. How long will it take for the test firing?"
"It is most likely due to the gas explosion. The caliber of the artillery is 18 pounds, and the density of the inner wall is higher than expected. However, due to the gas explosion, the barrel actually has a curvature deformation of about 1-2 degrees." Badis said matter-of-factly.
Replied.
"The curvature is deformed? It's useless?" Alphonse felt very regretful. This was originally a cannon barrel that could be used to confer gods, but it died prematurely.
"No, because the barrel itself is designed with an inclination, so a large part of the internal curvature can be ignored. I have calculated that as long as it is placed properly during the test firing, we can get a straight shooting line, but the shooting
The accuracy will decrease, and the specific deviation depends on the test results." Badis replied.
"In other words, if we control the power of the gas explosion, this will greatly enhance our cannon casting in the future?" Alphonse said happily.
"I think you don't have to be so optimistic. First of all, this was a complete accident. We didn't record any data with reference value. Secondly, the clay bottle we used was also one of the explosives used in the explosion.
We also have no reliable data on it, and the bottle itself is unique and has no reference value; thirdly, the amount of water we injected is also not recorded, and the earthenware bottle has been preheated, and the temperature is also not recorded, and the timing of adding water is also determined by
Yasuo's guess also has no reliable reference data. Do you think we can get a new Qi blast by guessing?" Badis replied.
"This is a failed air blast, Bardis, and we just need a less powerful air blast, right? Next we will change to a porcelain mold. Although it is harder than ceramic, it is
It is also much crisper; as for the amount of water added, it was 4/5 of the capacity of the clay bottle. I calculated it myself. Next time we can use less, such as 3/5; as for the timing of adding water,
Yasuo will give us the answer. After all, he guessed the timing. There is always something to rely on, right?" Alphonse laughed, stood up and patted Bardis on the shoulder, and continued: "You
I just read my plan. Does your family have any of the businesses mentioned in the plan? Any one is fine."
"The generations following my great-grandfather were in the military. When it comes to my father's generation, no one is in business. After retirement, we have been buying land to expand our vineyards, or serving the church. I joined the Chamber of Commerce and got a salary because I didn't want to join the church.
, or even worse, just work in the vineyard to make a living." Badis replied.
"What a pity, you know? That plan I just showed you, do you know who the investor is? The Louvre!" Alphonse whispered: "They plan to invest 500,000 in my artillery business.
Foer, this is a good thing, but if my share capital is less than theirs, my business will become their business, so I need more friends to partner with me to keep this business under my control."
"The Louvre?!" Bardis was stunned for a moment, then opened his eyes wide: "This is the Louvre's money, you still want to cheat them?"
"Baddis, this is a great opportunity to seek justice for ourselves." Alphonse said to Badis earnestly: "We have been nobles for generations, but now we are excluded from the palace and the army, and we are forever lost.
I don’t dare to say that it must be the fault of the Louvre, but someone in the Louvre is always wrong, isn’t it?”
Badis was stunned for a moment, and then he thought about it. If the higher-ups could treat him fairly and justly, how could he be retired? Thinking of this, he smiled bitterly and replied: "What is your plan?"
"Defrauding money and running away is naturally a way to die, and our family will be humiliated." Alphonse first let Bardis have no worries, and then continued: "I just want to seek justice and bring justice to the family."
Our business is added in, the value is raised, and the Louvre’s money is used to make money for us, and it is treated as compensation from the Louvre to us.”
"Isn't there going to be a problem?" Although Bardis basically understood Alphonse's thinking, he was still a little worried that Alphonse had lost his way.
"This is the problem I'm thinking about. I can't even afford fifty thousand livres now. If I want to accept investment from the Louvre, it won't be worth even selling my business for so much. But the business is growing, so
For example, we just hatched a little hen from a golden egg. Would you use it to exchange for two golden eggs, or borrow the money from the two golden eggs to feed it and then lay golden eggs for you every day?" Al Fang
Si replied: "So I urgently need more partners. As long as we can collect 200,000 livres, and then add the technology of 300,000 livres valuation, we can share this business equally with the Louvre."
, In other words, we only paid 200,000 livres, and we can share the same money with the Louvre. This shows that of the money paid by the Louvre, 150,000 livres are making money for us.
, Do you understand?"
"I can try to write letters to my family." Badis replied.
"No, no, no, it doesn't have to be like this. Since your family is not in business, and they don't have much money to raise at the moment, do you have a trustworthy friend? It's best to be your fiancée or lover. Then you can contribute some money, or I can lend it to you.
, we rented a large piece of property from him, and when we entered into the partnership, we said it was our business, and then when we made money, we bought it, so that the Louvre would not be able to trouble us in the future, and you
You can also own such an industry." Alphonse replied.
"This... doesn't happen..." Badis said awkwardly.
"Uh... you'd better think about it, okay? I can lend you 1,000 livres if you need it. This is the best opportunity to make money. We don't have much time, only a month or two."
Fang Si patted his shoulder again and said: "You are very handsome. I suggest you hurry up and get a beautiful baroness, so that you can have a fiancée and your own industry."
"..." Badis was speechless and looked at Alphonse with a look of shame and anger.
"It's up to you." Alphonse shrugged and said, "Then I'll go find the beautiful Baroness myself..."
In the end, Alphonse failed to find the beautiful Baroness. Because as soon as he walked to the door, he met Yasuo, whose beard was full of iron filings. It was obvious that this guy had just polished the cannon himself, and he didn't even have time to do it.
After taking care of myself, I came over to eat.
"Take care of yourself, Mr. Yasuo, you don't look like a rich man with a net worth of thousands of livres, okay?" Alphonse teased Yasuo.
"He is neat and tidy, but he does not have a net worth of thousands of livres." Yasuo mouthed to Baddis who appeared behind Alphonse.
"Oh, God, Badis, God sent Yasuo to save you." Alphonse suddenly thought of something and shouted to Badis.
"What?" Yasuo and Bardis looked confused at the same time...
"It's like this, I will get an investment right away, a lot of it, 500,000 livres." Sitting at the dining table, Alphonse said slowly while folding his napkin.
"Pfft...how much?" Yasuo spit out all the wine in his mouth. Fortunately, An, who usually sat opposite him, had not returned yet, otherwise he would have suffered for nothing.
"What you just heard, 500,000 livres." Alphonse picked up the knife and fork and continued: "Of course I can't eat so much by myself. This money can completely buy my workshop, so I plan to try my best to
Possible investment will make us more valuable than 500,000 livres. Similarly, this means that each of us can have the opportunity to get a large sum of money, but the premise is that the bigger the investment, the bigger the return."
"You mean we are also involved in this investment?" Yasuo understood: "But since the amount of investment is the same as the return, I naturally invest more instead of lending the money to our Major Badis.
”
"Mr. Badis doesn't need to borrow money from you. I can borrow several thousand livres." Alphonse calmly cut the sausage and said, "And a few thousand livres is almost nothing in this investment."
It's all in vain, because we need more than 500,000 livres, which adds up to more than 1 million. So I gave Mr. Badis an idea of leasing assets."
"Lease assets?" Yasuo said in confusion.
"Or in installments, buy assets of 20,000 livres, and then pay 1,000 livres every month for one and a half years. In this case, he can first use the assets of 20,000 livres to participate in this distribution, and
After making money, he will pay it back slowly." Alphonse put the sausage into his mouth.
"Where can I find such a fool?" Yasuo rolled his eyes and complained.
"So he needs your help, Yasuo, your son, our captain, he married a beautiful noble lady for 1,000 livres." Alphonse pointed at Badis and said: "Look, we
This man is a major, and he is young, handsome, and a romantic Frenchman. He needs your help, or the help of Mr. Captain and his beautiful wife, and then find him a wife with assets of 20,000 livres or more, and then put him
Among them, 20,000 livres of assets were sold to Badis. Of course, before all the money is paid, the property rights transaction can be done slowly. After all, as long as you can catch up with the penny, it will be fine."
"Alphonse, I don't need it!" Bardis shouted angrily.
"Are you sure? Do you know? I really want to marry a noble lady for myself right away. If you are sure you don't want it, I will buy this share with you for 500, no, 200 livres."
Suo looked at Bardis with a "sincere" look.
"I'm full." Bardis, who had only eaten half of the omelette, angrily pulled off his napkin. Alphonse quickly waved his hand and said with a smile: "Don't be like this, Bardis, Yasuo is just joking with you. If you
If he leaves, he will feel guilty for the rest of his life."
"Yes, I will really be like this and feel guilty for the rest of my life." Yasuo rolled his eyes and agreed with Alphonse. Badis glanced at him, then put the napkin around and continued eating.

"Stop making fun of Bardis and let's get down to business, Yasuo. Just now we were discussing the air explosion. If you can seize a better opportunity next time when casting a cannon, the air explosion can be generated immediately.
Won't it destroy our artillery?" Alphonse asked with a smile.
"Uh... this time it was a complete accident. I didn't expect it to explode. Next time I will wait for the cannon to solidify a little more before adding water." Yasuo replied seriously: "Yes, I am very confident. I am considering it.
We can even let the artillery cool down first, see that it has solidified, and then heat it again. At this time, its inner wall has solidified, and the outside has begun to melt again. The temperature is very high, and I am sure that there will still be an air explosion. Of course, also
