There's something wrong with this guy

Chapter 112

Xi Huanyan and Bo Cao discussed the details. According to the general environment of the Eastern Region and the Tongzhou system, many raw materials are not allowed to be sold in large quantities by private individuals. If the finished product is defined as military supplies, private manufacture and sale are not allowed, so her talisman shop must Bring the official stamp.

According to Cao Yi's calculation, it is simply an official-private partnership, with Xi Huanyan in charge of management and management, and the official in charge of connecting with the principals in various states. In addition, if Bingshan has a less important invention, it can also be handed over to her for production and sale.

For the sake of money, Bo Cao improved his mobility, and successively approached Shang Cheng Nanzhang, Bing Cao, who was in charge of military affairs, and Bing Shan, the chief officer, "Tongzhou needs to make money, and the profit in weapons is the biggest. This store is Tongzhou noodles." A window to the Eastern Region weapons market!"

After discussing with the others, they felt that they could give it a try. The premise is that the same state should be the first, and the same state cannot be done well, which will strengthen the strength of other Dao states.

Therefore, Bo Cao found a time to sign a formal cooperation contract with Xi Huanyan, and granted her a piece of land at the eastern foot of Fenghe Mountains, so that she would have enough space to build a workshop.

At first, Xi Huanyan only wanted to sell perspective mirrors, but Bo Cao's posture seemed to be to build a platform for selling weapons to the outside world. Now she is only testing the waters with auxiliary equipment such as perspective mirrors, and has no intention of helping her manage them.

This posed a big problem for her. She must form a team to be responsible for the operation alone, and then gather a group of masters to do the work.

Xi Huanyan thought about getting the perspective mirror first, and Book Cao ordered [-] pieces, which required a relatively large amount of raw materials. She gave the list to Tinghua and asked him if he could buy it.

Ting Hua patted his stomach and read the list twice, "Dongjun, I'm afraid the city can't get it all together. The main materials such as borax and quartz sand have to be found in metallurgical shops, porcelain craft shops, and medicine shops. These shops need them for refining. Utensils and medicines for external use, if you buy too much, they are not happy to sell them, so it is best to contact the origin or specialized material merchants.”

There are more than a dozen materials for perspective mirrors, and they are not very common. When Xi Huanyan handed the list to Ting Hua for the first time, he found that he responded calmly and without any difficulty, so she handed the list to him again this time. His reaction surprised her, "You seem to know something about these things, if I leave it to you, can you do it well?"

Ting Hua smiled and said, "I can try, but for large transactions, you need to show the official franchise document, and the transaction contract also needs to be stamped with relevant seals."

"The books are all done for me." Xi Huanyan opened a box that she carried with her, and took out a square seal and a copper coupon, "The store has a new name, Zhen Ge Fang, which mainly deals in talisman carvings, source tools, and spiritual aids." This is its No. [-] contract seal and franchise procurement documents, which indicate the scope of procurement, you can take the seal, and make a rubbing copy of the document, and return the original to me.”

"Okay, I'll take care of it for you." Ting Hua generously accepted the two things, sent Xi Huanyan back to Changning Hall, and drove down the mountain.

Xi Huanyan came in and saw Danliu who was arranging flowers, and called out, "Aunt Dan."

"Dong Jun is back." Dan Liu put the vase away, stepped forward to take the cloak she had untied, and patted off the snow particles, "There's a cup of soup hot in the kitchen, I'll bring it."

"Wait a moment." Xi Huanyan called to stop her, "Aunt Dan is in charge of the internal affairs of the Changning Hall, and she keeps everything in order. It’s overkill to be responsible for the affairs of the first hall, and I’m planning to build a new workshop, but I’m suffering from no one to take care of it, can Aunt Dan come over and help?”

After Dan Liu listened carefully to her words, his expression softened.

Xi Huanyan, who had been watching her all the time, caught a fleeting admiration in her eyes, and heard her say, "It is my duty to share Dongjun's worries, and I am willing to serve you."

"it is good."

Xi Huanyan gave her the financial seal and the No. [-] contract seal in the box, leaving only an official seal engraved with the words "Zhen Ge Fang".

These seals are backed up in the Ji Mansion, endowed with the force of law, protected by the government, and are necessary certificates for every big store. If you do business in the Eastern Region, if you do not have these certificates, you will be regarded as a black merchant. Having no access to formal purchase channels at all is undoubtedly missing out on many materials under the control of the government.

How many materials are under the government's control? It needs to be known that when the Eastern Region was unified, the Empire issued a decree that all underground and above-ground resources in the Eastern Region belonged to the Empire.

The empire allocated the land to the dukes, and you are allowed to toss about it. After one generation, you still have the right to take back the sovereignty.

You have discovered a mine privately, and you can mine it if you want, but you need to obtain the consent of the empire and pay the mining tax. If the empire does not agree, then you cannot mine it, and you will be punished for mining it privately.

Therefore, the business in the Eastern Region is basically under the supervision of the government.

Don't talk about business, talent is too.As mentioned earlier, the empire has a complete set of academies, which are Sociology, which teaches enlightenment knowledge, Civil and Military Academy, which teaches elementary culture, and the Supreme Academy, which accepts the best of Civil and Military Academy on a part-time basis and trains source teachers.

Correspondingly, everyone has a school record on their backs. The first class is naturally the source teachers from the highest academy. The source teachers receive the most resources. After graduation, they will be selected into the army, the burning sun mansion and other confidential places. To serve the empire, one must serve for ten years.

The second category is the top-rank civil and military talents from the highest academy, who are directly assigned to serve in the army and politics. The fifth grade is for people with sociology background, and these people have to find work by themselves.

This also determines the scope of Zhen Ge Fang's recruitment.

The first and second ranks can be eliminated. The same library will not release people, and at most students are allowed to come out to do part-time jobs. However, there are probably no other people from the highest academy in Daozhou in the same state. Even if there are, they are already in the military and political field.

After Dan Liu took office, he decided to give priority to pre-recruiting civil and military talents and those who are willing to learn skills from the six civil and military academies in Jiyanhai. Although the young people from birth do not have much experience, they are better than having a solid foundation and strong plasticity.

Now that the materials are not complete, Xi Huanyan followed Dan Liu to supervise the construction of the workshop, and went out with her from time to time to contact the dean of Wenwu Academy to discuss pre-recruitment.

Most of the time, Xi Huanyan is only a mascot, leaving everything to Danliu, and Danliu, who has left the Changning Palace, begins to show her gentle side. She discusses drawings with the master craftsmen, modest and firm, she and building materials The businessman negotiates prices, and hides edges and corners in a smooth manner. She chats and laughs with the deans of the academy, turning the opportunity into a spring breeze.

She is like a high-ranking person who is very good at controlling people's hearts. Every time she meets someone with her, Xi Huanyan will get an extra novelty.
