Daqizong

Hearing this, Li Wan couldn't help but smile knowingly.

The eldest lady and the others didn't ask about it on the surface, but they should also be very concerned about it secretly, and they came to the door when the refining was completed.

In the past two years, he has been cultivating his body and surname, retreating and refining weapons, and he is really tired. He should go out for a walk and exercise his muscles and bones.

When Gong Shuyuan saw Li Wan's expression, he immediately knew that the matter was over, so he said while the iron was hot: "Please Li Daoyou to stay in the mansion tomorrow, the eldest lady and Elder Mo will pay a special visit to discuss this matter in detail."

Li Wan nodded and smiled, "Okay."

On the second day, Missy and Elder Mo came to visit as scheduled.

Li Wan invited them into the main hall, the host and guest sat separately, and asked about the recruitment rules.

The eldest lady still had the same demeanor, with a beautiful face, she was assertive and confident, and explained her plan to Li Wan.

"This trip is to go to Tongshan to recruit casual cultivators who left other workshops. The number of people is about 30, so please Li Daoyou get ready for the trip. In addition to the official refiner, those who have not yet been promoted to refiner , but skilled apprentices who can process and cook workpieces are also recruited by us. Each workshop has more than five people, and needs 150 to [-] people. The rest of the helpers are as many as possible, but the number should not exceed [-]."

"Each refiner has a monthly salary of [-], an apprentice of [-], and a handyman of [-]. If there is a skill, it can be increased as appropriate. These can be negotiated during the discussion, but the important thing is not these, but those who refine Instrument masters, the source of customers brought from various workshops."

"There is also the corresponding field guards. These personnel cannot be recruited from casual cultivators with unknown history. They must be recruited from sect disciples. I have negotiated with Yuchan Palace, Yuquan Sword Sect, Changhong Sword Sect, Lihua and other sects. It will be co-guaranteed by the great elders and other big figures of the precepts, and they will be transposed to practice..."

"Wait a minute." Li Wan couldn't help interrupting the eldest lady's smooth talk, and asked in confusion, "Miss, how many workshops does our workshop have today?"

The eldest lady said: "180 six seats."

Li Wan was taken aback: "Already nearly [-] seats? It's really enough, but just add [-] seats...isn't it too much?"

The young lady's plan is obviously to increase the number of workshops, but from the original 180 to more than 200, the steps are too big, and he is a little worried that the workshop will not be able to support it.

The eldest lady asked: "Li Daoyou thinks that adding too many scenes at once is not easy to take care of?"

Li Wan nodded: "Yes."

The eldest lady smiled lightly, and Elder Mo also smiled a little deeper.

"Let me explain this matter to Li Daoyou." Elder Mo said, "According to the usual workshop practices, of course there is no way to support it. The salary servants and treatment arrangements of the new craftsmen are not easy to deal with, but My Tiangong Workshop has implemented the new system for a long time, and has a deep reputation in the industry, which is enough to subdue those refiners."

"Moreover, it's not just that, the owners and heads of other major workshops, there are many people who have good friends and marriages with our Tiangong Workshop. Miss's cousin-in-law, and the Yuchan Palace, Yuquan Sword Sect, Changhong Sword Sect, Lihua Sect, etc., all have uncles and brothers, or old disciples."

Under Elder Mo's explanation, Li Wan just realized that the Xiao family is located in the east of Tiannan, and it is also a family with a long history. Along the way, many monks who had no talent in refining weapons but were successful in cultivation joined other sect forces and spread their branches.

With these contacts, Tiangongfang can be enjoyed in all walks of life in Tiannan. Moreover, the Xiao family and the elders of Tiangongfang have their own special stewards and deacons, so it is not a problem to manage these newly added workshops.

"So, adding about 20 workshops is not a lot at all. With the current background of my Tiangong Workshop, it is not a problem to increase it to [-]. The eldest lady even has a plan. In another [-] years , increased to about [-] seats, doubling the size again!"

After listening to Elder Mo's words, the eldest lady smiled faintly, and said to Li Wan: "Elder Mo's words are a bit exaggerated, but it is true that I want to increase the number of workshops and expand the scale, and besides the workshops that belong to my workshop In addition, I also plan to implement a brand-new franchise method, which is to allow each refiner to set up a workshop with their own funds, and our Tiangong Workshop will teach the refining process by piece and unify the inscription, so as to win over Tongshan's peers. Most of the work orders."

Li Wan was taken aback: "Join?"

The eldest lady explained: "This is similar to casual labor and domestic help, but the objects of employment have changed from a single casual cultivator to a workplace for famous teachers."

Li Wan thought about it carefully, and suddenly realized that this is simply a way to unify Tongshan's peers and dominate the east of Tiannan.

Li Wan was deeply suspicious: "Can other workshops and instrument repair schools allow Tiangongfang to do this?"

The eldest lady said: "Of course it's impossible, but the prosperity of the world is all for profit. As long as our workshop can earn spiritual jade, others can't. Why should they resist? The big sect needs magical weapons and real weapons. Xuanmen disciples also need it, everyone needs it, and they can't stop it unless they have the ability to supply it."

Other workshops and instrument repair sects compete with Tiangongfang through open and secret methods, good and evil methods, but these two approaches are all related to customers, so they can't be overdone.

In the final analysis, you still have to rely on your own ability.

Li Wan was a little surprised: "Tiangongfang...is this really the only way to make money?"

Elder Mo laughed: "You Daoist Li probably don't know the real profit of starting a workshop. In fact, an ordinary craftsman personally selects materials, strengthens restrictions, sets up magic circles, sacrifices and other processes. It takes 32 days. It takes about [-] ten days to refine one ordinary magic weapon in one year, after deducting the annual sickness, that is, to refine sixteen magic weapons.

Let's look at how much these sixteen magical artifacts can earn. Taking the workshop as an example, [-]% of the commission is given to the refiner, and then deducting the cost of more than [-] pieces of spiritual jade for ordinary magical artifacts, it is five hundred. Each piece of spiritual jade, eight thousand spiritual jades a year!Therefore, if a workshop is set up under the old system, the profit that can be earned is not much. "

"So little?" Li Wan said in surprise, "The monthly salary of every craftsman in Tiangongfang plus various subsidies is more than [-] a month. Such a small amount of Lingyu is not enough for our salary..."

Elder Mo laughed: "So, their income is not too high, and even some workshops can only be paid a commission, and there is no such thing as a monthly salary!"

Li Wan's expression was serious, he didn't expect that there was such a big gap between workshops!

Elder Mo said again: "Of course, there are handymen and apprentices in the workshop. Although they can't complete the workpiece alone, they can also refine the weapon. They refine the non-grade and ordinary-grade magical artifacts. The profit is thousands of dollars, but their own identities The status is not high, and the monthly salary he receives is also small, and he has a surplus throughout the year."

Li Wan was dumbfounded: "Isn't this squeezing their blood and sweat?"

Elder Mo chuckled: "That's true, but who doesn't squeeze the blood and sweat of apprentices and handymen? That is our workshop, the efficiency of refining weapons is far higher than theirs, and the output of magic weapons of each apprentice and refining master is guaranteed every year." Not only sixteen pieces, but as many as twenty or even thirty pieces, and vigorously develop high-grade and even rare magic weapons, so that they can support these salaries, and even have a lot of surplus!"

Li Wan nodded silently: "Surplus is the foundation of the workshop, without surplus, there is no power to support it!"

He suddenly discovered that not everyone can refine high-grade and precious instruments. Forcibly refining, the output is not high, and the cost may be more than the profit if it is done throughout the year.

Only workshops that have mastered efficient mass production methods can earn enough Lingyu and strengthen their power.

Tiangongfang has been receiving a large number of dharma swords and dharma robes for a long time, with clear positioning and efficient production, and it seems that it is already on this broad road.But how it is done, Li Wan is still puzzled. He just vaguely heard that it seems that the eldest lady's ancestors created a set of methods of refining by parts, and they were strictly trained and implemented.

Based on Li Wan's recent experience of continuously refining multiple Flying God Rings, it is indeed the same magic weapon, the more refined, the more familiar the technique.

Li Wan even vaguely felt that Tiangongfang might have secretly controlled some of the main ingredients of the refining equipment in order to achieve a monopoly in certain magic weapons.

In addition, the endless stream of stewards and deacons in the Xiao family is also the key to the realization of these methods. Other workshops and weapon refining sects can only imitate the superficial learning.

The water here is very deep, and it is really not something ordinary people can do if they want to straighten it out.

The confidence of Missy and Elder Mo also infected Li Wan. He felt that there was a lot to be done in this matter, so he promised to do his best to help.

A few days later, Li Wan took Lin Jingshu, followed by Shi Haoguang, Bing Ning, Miyan Miluo and others, and appeared on the best flying boat treasure in Tiangongfang, meeting with Missy, Gongshuyuan, Elder Mo and others.

This is a silver-white high-grade flying boat, the treasure level is top-notch, and it is the owner's car.

The eldest lady welcomes Li Wan very much. After all, Tiangongfang's strength lies in the refining of ordinary magic weapons and famous utensils. It lacks masters to sit in the workshop, and Li Wan is her recruit into the workshop, and she is also the object of her vigorous wooing now. .

But seeing Lin Jingshu next to Li Wan, the eldest lady couldn't help but be surprised.

She recently heard that Li Wan and Lin Jingshu met frequently, and their demeanor seemed to be quite intimate. She thought that Lin Jingshu and Li Wan were old acquaintances, and it was normal for them to learn how to refine weapons with Li Wan and go in and out together, but now it seems , it's not that simple.

The eldest lady took advantage of Gong Shuyuan to take Li Wan to stay, and asked: "Sister Jingshu, why are you here, you want to go to Tongshan with us?"

Lin Jingshu giggled, looking very happy: "Wan Lang said he would take me to Tongshan to relax! Sister Ning, what have you been up to lately, I haven't seen you for a while."

"I'm busy adding work matters..." The eldest lady responded, but she couldn't help being startled, "Wan Lang? Is she talking about Li Daoyou? When will the two of them get married?" (To be continued) .)
