Chapter 488: Chain
Zhou Heng looked up at the old emperor. Being able to ask this means that he had already regarded this matter as his own business.
This sense of ownership is the most critical. If this is not your own business, you can't do it any more.
Now that I can think about whether this matter is making money, the most difficult step is to take it.
"What Your Majesty said is, but if you want to make money and make more money, you really need to plan well."
The emperor smiled on his face, glanced at Zhou Heng, and then started laughing.
"Don't keep it a secret. Tell me how to make money? Could it be that you want all the carriages in the world to be replaced with your tires?"
Zhou Heng spread his hands.
"What's wrong with this? Although the tires are expensive, it's definitely expensive. Of course, the materials prepared for military supplies must be different from those used in civilians.
And not to mention anything else, just changing tires and repairing cars can solve the employment of many people. It is not a livelihood issue. How many stores should be opened in Daliang to operate this?"
The emperor frowned slightly and looked at Zhou Heng.
"Tyre repair? Is this tire repaired? That means, this thing is often damaged?"
Zhou Heng was stunned. Why did this come out with a simple word? But this is not a shameful thing. Of course, it must be explained clearly that the iron wheels must be repaired.
"This is natural, I enjoyed the feeling of comfort and no bumps in riding. The weight of the entire carriage was reduced and the speed increased by more than 30%. These are all real.
But the price of tires sold to ordinary people must not be too high. The materials used naturally cannot be compared to those supplied to the military, so that they can be quickly popularized. Of course, people have to be found to do publicity, of course, this is all a story.
The tires sold at the same time can enjoy repair and inflatable services in all domestic stores. How can they not be sold? Moreover, the overall wheels of rubber tires are installed, which is not expensive than ordinary axles and wheels. This is amazing!”
Listening to Zhou Heng's words, the emperor kept imagining the scene of such rubber wheels all over the streets, let alone this seemed feasible.
"What Zhou Aiqing meant is to rely solely on cooperation to sell wheels?"
Zhou Heng shook his head. Huichuntang belonged to him and Zhu Yunmo, so this industry naturally cannot be moved. However, if it wants to be popularized in various places, it must make profits, just like the nature of a chain store.
"This is of course not possible, but in the short term, the wheel replacement business is enough for us to make a fortune. There are still subsequent ideas, but these will have to wait for our new products to come out before going to the next step. Rong Weichen is now in a silence.
However, when it comes to tires, we have to mention the supply issues in the army. If you just put the medicine and ambulance into the army, the effectiveness is very limited and you will not be able to use it at all when you get something. This is begging for rice with a golden rice bowl.
Therefore, I suggest that military doctors go to the medical school in Beishan in batches to study. Those who have completed their studies will bring these drugs and ambulances back to the hospital. They will use them and operate them. This is a life-saving thing, otherwise it will be a waste of this effort."
Speaking of this, Zhou Heng paused. The emperor looked at Zhou Heng. Seeing his lips tightly pursed, he had something to understand. He had thoughts but didn't dare to say anything.
"If you think of anything, just say it. Since I agree to cooperate, there are naturally many things that can be discussed, otherwise there will be no cooperation."
Zhou Heng glanced at Zhu Yunmo, and Zhu Yunmo felt nervous. He knew what Zhou Heng was going to say, so he quickly moved his butt forward and looked more humble with one side. Zhou Heng stood up and looked at the emperor and said.
"I thought about it. Beishan would go out to Nankuang for a hundred acres and build another workshop to build an ambulance and a cabin hospital. The income investment in this item is also classified into cooperation. Of course, Your Majesty does not need to invest money."
The emperor looked at Zhou Heng with a serious look, raised his eyebrows, took a sip of the teacup, and then said with a smile:
"Your attention has come to the Ministry of War? Could it be that if I want to make money, I still need to get it from the Ministry of War?"
Zhou Heng had expected this attitude long ago, so he stood up slowly and looked at the emperor.
"People say that the wealth and water will not flow to outsiders' fields. If you let me make this military procurement matter, you really can't afford it. You don't hire people to guard it for anything else. In addition, the transportation process is very risky, so you will have to find someone to cooperate.
If that were the case, Your Majesty would think that the cost would be much higher. If you don’t make money, the food, drink and monthly expenses and maintenance of cars and horses would have to pay for it. In this way, the cost of the car would be at least 30% higher.
Can Your Majesty think that the price is high if you report this price?”
The emperor stopped, afraid of calculating the account. Not to mention Zhou Heng's calculation, it seemed to make some sense. The emperor glanced at Fang Jizhong standing aside, saw him constantly fiddling with his fingers, and then nodded to the emperor, very much agreeing with Zhou Heng's statement.
"But even if the garrison troops is dispatched, it will cost you. Is there no cost to the garrison troops?"
Zhou Heng smiled, with a hint of joy on his face, stood up and leaned against the emperor, and then he said with five fingers apart.
"Let me calculate for Your Majesty that this monthly salary was allocated by the Ministry of War. Of course, there may be times when it is not timely, but this is absolutely fine, right? The clothes and equipment on your body are all equipped with uniform equipment, and the chariots, horses and weapons are even more so.
In this way, the only thing is the problem of food and grass. The guardian of the rubber garden naturally followed the people in the garden to eat and drink. These people left the station to be responsible for escorting the people, and we provided food and drink, and it was delicious and delicious.
I would give some subsidies to the carriages, so that they saved food and made more money. Wouldn’t everyone be happy? We can also reduce costs, and the Ministry of War can spend less money, and you can still make a little more money."
When the emperor heard this, he had to block his doubts just now.
But this idea is really good. It seems to be satisfied with all aspects. It is simply impeccable. Looking at his open-minded face, he knew that he was willing to be fooled even though he knew there were some things in it.
After all, this condition is too tempting. While making money, you don’t have to stand out and save money for the Ministry of War without making it.
"Okay, you convinced me to prepare your contract, and I will sign the contract with you."
Zhou Heng grinned. At this moment, he really couldn't help but hooked his fingers at Zhu Yunmo.
Zhu Yunmo was honest and got up and took out a kraft paper bag from his arms. The emperor glanced at Fang Jizhong, and Fang Jizhong coughed twice.
"The prince can take it out later, even if he pretends to write. No matter how he looks at it, it seems like he is planning to do something about His Majesty."
Zhu Yunmo stood up suddenly, approached the emperor, and almost looked close to Fang Jizhong.
"How could Eunuch Fang say that? How long did we think about this method? In order to implement the military patent medicine, we designed ambulances and temporary hospitals every day, and we also had to think about the medical skills of military doctors and save money for the court. We really racked our brains. This contract is one of many sincerity!"
Fang Jizhong raised his hand and quickly took two steps back.
He was not afraid of Zhu Yunmo, but he got too close. Zhu Yunmo's saliva was sprayed on Fang Jizhong's face, and the smell of various foods slightly fermented, which really made people feel a little panicked.
Seeing Fang Jizhong retreating, Zhu Yunmo suddenly squatted in front of the emperor, holding the emperor's legs, and his face seemed a little aggrieved.
"Uncle the Emperor, although Uncle the Emperor, let Yunmo walk sideways in the capital, it has been so long that Yunmo has caused trouble for you."
The emperor thought for a while, stared at Zhu Yunmo's eyes, and nodded slightly.
"It's a mess, and it's not one!"
Zhu Yunmo was stunned and looked at the old emperor in a daze, but he didn't realize what he was talking about for a moment.
