Chapter 126: Plans to Expand

The same worries as Changsun Wuji include the Li family of Zhaojun, the owner of the No. 1 Automobile Factory in the North, the head of the family, Li Mengchang, the founder of Wushui County, and his brother Li Shousu, one of the eighteen bachelors of the Prince Qin's Palace and currently the bachelor of Hongwen Hall, looked at the large piles on the table.

Heavy vehicle orders are in a hurry.

Li Mengchang asked anxiously: "Brother Shousu, there are so many orders piled up, but the production line has not even been debugged, and the materials are not enough.

There are so many orders but we can only watch, what should we do?"

Li Shousu was also worried. The contractors had already begun to recruit manpower. If he could not deliver enough trucks on the day when the construction started, it would seriously affect the progress of the project and he would not even be able to earn the money he was looking for! A truck cost 40

A ton truck costs 200,000 taels. After they agreed to Wenyi to set up a truck factory, they received an order for 200 trucks. A transaction of 40 million taels would have been unthinkable before.

Li Shousu walked around the room a few times and suddenly shouted: "It's done!"

Li Mengchang quickly asked: "My dear brother, if you have any plans, tell me quickly."

Li Shousu said with a smile: "Brother, I also had contact with Prime Minister Wen when I was working in Prince Qin's Palace.

After His Majesty became the crown prince, some secrets came out. I remember that Prime Minister Wen was able to mass-produce trucks a few years ago. We can ask Prime Minister Wen to help alleviate the current urgent needs."

Li Mengchang frowned again and said, "But will Wen Xiang help us?

Now he is the number one person in the dynasty!"

Li Shousu smiled and said: "Foolish brother believes that he will help. There are two reasons. First, Wen Xiang is a very nostalgic person. This can be seen from the cooperation with various families this time. Look at the people in Prince Qin's Palace who are not doing it.

The most profitable business?

Secondly, he should be very aware of the progress of each of our families. Since he thinks that New Chang'an can be built now, he must be prepared.

If eldest brother doesn’t believe it, you can go to Wen Mansion with Yu Di, and you will definitely gain something!”

Li Mengchang gritted his teeth and asked someone to prepare several carts of gifts and went to find literature and art with Li Shousu himself.

Wenyi was studying military satellites at home. Hearing the report from outsiders on the 28th that Li Mengchang, the head of the Li family in Zhao County, was visiting, Wenyi put down his pen and shook his head with a smile and said to himself: "Hey, it's already the sixth wave. Today is such a good day. 2

Eight, we need to hurry up on our new warehouse, we can’t put it down anymore.”

Wen Erba said happily: "Don't worry, young master, our warehouse will be completed in three days at most! Let's quickly see what gifts this distinguished guest has given us, haha."

It is a joy to have courtesy come from afar.

Wenyi prepared some fragrant tea in the living room and waited for the "gift" to arrive. Well, it was a guest.

After the three people saw each other, the host and guest took their seats.

Li Mengchang was a military general with an outspoken temperament. He came straight to the point and said: "Prime Minister Wen, my family has encountered a difficult problem this time. I came here to ask Prime Minister Wen for help."

Wenyi pretended to be surprised and said: "The Li family in Zhaojun is a top-notch family with five surnames and seven hopes. How can there be anything that can stump the Li family?"

Li Mengchang sighed and said: "It's not the New Chang'an construction plan.

The drawings you gave are so advanced that if you hadn't specially sent someone to guide me, there wouldn't even be anyone in my family who could understand the drawings.

The equipment has just been built and is still being installed and debugged.

But customers are now urging us to deliver goods.

How can we give them the goods?"

Wenyi thought for a while and said: "I remember that your family established the First Automobile Factory in the North. But as far as I know, the Southern Automobile Factory, which is responsible for the production of special vehicles, is under some pressure. How come you, who mainly produce trucks, are still under pressure?"

Li Mengchang said worriedly: "Are you relieved? I now have 200 truck orders, all of which are from the famous families who participated in this plan. They are urgently pressing now.

The most disgusting thing is that the Yuan family's order reminder actually slept in front of our factory and refused to leave until the goods were delivered! I had no choice but to shamelessly come to ask Wen Xiang for help.

A small gift is no sign of respect."

After speaking, he took out a gift list from his sleeve and handed it to Wenyi.

Wen Yi glanced at the gift list, what a guy! One cart of silver! Several carts of copper coins! Several carts of cloth and silk! This gift is in place! I must help you! Wen Yi stuffed the gift list into his trouser pocket with a smile and said: "If

If you want me to help build the production line, I'm a little helpless.

Now I have to coordinate the new Chang'an plan, and I am extremely busy every day."

Li Mengchang's heart suddenly fell to the bottom, but Li Shousu on the side heard something in Wenyi's words, and asked with a smile: "Since Wen Xiang has a plan, don't whet my brother's appetite anymore, look at how anxious he is.

Already."

Wenyi laughed and said: "As expected of the eighteenth bachelor of the Prince of Qin's Palace! I can't help you with the production line, but I do have some ready-made cars. 200 is not too much. In a few days, you will send someone to Wailiu Village to get it.

yes."

Li Mengchang's heart jumped up again after hitting the bottom, and he said with great joy: "It turns out that Prime Minister Wen had already made arrangements, I am extremely grateful!"

After several people made an appointment with the specific delivery time, Li Mengchang and Li Shousu went back satisfied.

On the way, Li Mengchang still smiled happily and said to Li Shousu: "If it weren't for the guidance of the wise brother, the foolish brother would really be in trouble this time! Thank you, the wise brother!"

Li Shousu smiled and shook his head and said: "Why do one family have to speak two different languages? Since Wen Xiang has already arranged it, then there is no problem.

However, Yu Di suggested that his eldest brother prepare some gifts for Wen Xiang after he goes back.

Although he is young, he is extremely evil, and being friends with him will definitely be of great benefit to my family!"

Li Mengchang nodded and said: "This foolish brother knows that I am going to give all the profits from this transaction to Wen Xiang.

Now that the teaching fees have been paid, as long as we officially start production, will we still have to worry about money?"

... Wenyi agreed to them so readily because he had his own little thoughts. The special force has now been divided by Li Shimin into two units: the special force and the Xuanjia Army.

Among them, there are 500 people from the special force and 3,000 people from the Xuanjia Army.

Wenyi decided to take advantage of this expansion to eliminate a batch of old equipment, including trucks produced in previous years.

It's too wasteful to just throw it away. It's quite good to have someone renovate it and paint it to fool these bumpkins! As he expected, the Changsun family's iron factory was short of supply and didn't understand the new equipment, causing many aristocratic families to be in urgent need of help.

These things are missing.

Wenyi not only sold those old cars at the price of new cars, but also made extra money! He called up a table from the bracelet and deleted 200 vehicles from the remaining 365 vehicles.

After admiring it with satisfaction, he said to himself: "Hey, there are still more than a hundred cars unsold!"

"Hey, why are there still thousands of tons of iron sheets? Well, don't worry, Changsun Wuji should be here soon. I'll sell it to him then!"

"Hey, there are still so many cables. It doesn't matter. The Cui family will definitely take over happily."

...In two days, Wenyi sold out all the supplies that the base did not need in just two days.

The initial investment of 50 million promised by Li Shimin was all in the hands of Wenyi in an instant.

Ke Wenyi was so happy that he came to Datang Bank President Lu Qiyuan with an order.

Wen Yi slapped the note on his desk and said with a smile: "President Lu, let's make a deal."

Lu Qiyuan looked at the written documents and said a little strangely: "I wonder what kind of deal Wen Xiang wants to do with me?

If it concerns the Lu family, I can make the decision, but if it concerns the court, I cannot."

Wenyi said: "It concerns the imperial court, who should I prefer?

Xiao Shangshu?"

Lu Qiyuan shook his head and said: "You are looking for Your Majesty. Although Datang Bank is under the Account Department, it operates independently and belongs directly to Your Majesty."

Wen Yi simply put the receipt into his briefcase and said, "Okay, come with me to see His Majesty. You can't get away with this."

Lu Qiyuan didn't waste any time, got up and followed Wenyi to the palace.

Li Shimin was reviewing the memorial in Xuanzheng Hall at this time.

Since his return, Wenyi has pushed everyone out of the court on the pretext that the tasks of the New Chang'an Plan are too heavy.

Three of the four prime ministers scolded literature and art for being shameless. Only Wei Zheng was overjoyed. Wen Yi's move directly made him understand that the ambition of literature and art to control the government that he was worried about did not exist at all.

In this way, the First Prime Minister Wenyi has not been to work in Shangshu Province for several days.

However, Li Shimin became very busy. There were hundreds of memorials to be reviewed every day. Without Xiao Ming's help, he would probably hang up Wenyi and whip him out! Wenyi and Lu Qiyuan saluted, and Wenyi put the written documents on the desk and said: "Your Majesty,

This is the profit from the base’s excess supplies, and I would like to use these receipts to exchange some vouchers with Datang Bank.”

Li Shimin said naturally: "Xiao Ming, what are coupons?"

Soon Xiao Ming's voice sounded in my mind: "Your Majesty, a voucher is a kind of paper that can be used as part of the money.

But the coupons mentioned in literature and art should refer to bonds."

Lu Qiyuan looked around, not knowing who Li Shimin was talking to. Then he saw Li Shimin nodding and saying, "What are bonds?"

Xiao Ming quickly answered: "Bonds are a kind of financial contract. They are issued to investors when the government, financial institutions, industrial and commercial enterprises, etc. directly borrow money from society to raise funds. At the same time, they promise to pay interest at a certain interest rate and repay the principal according to the agreed conditions.

Certificates of creditor's rights and debts.

Wenyi probably wanted to use these documents as collateral to borrow money from Datang Bank."

Li Shimin scratched his head and said, "I don't understand this very well. Do you know who else understands this besides literature and art?"

Xiao Ming: "Your Majesty, your son Li Ke specializes in finance at the base. You can call him to take charge of this matter."

Li Shimin nodded and said, "You should contact Ke'er now and ask him to enter the palace now."

Xiao Ming: "Yes."

Although Li Shimin believed that literature and art would not deceive him, his son actually learned this knowledge. How could he not take this opportunity to take an exam in school?

Then he said to the two literary and artistic people: "You guys should rest aside for a while and wait until Ke'er comes."

After saying that, he began to immerse himself in reviewing the memorial.

After Lu Qiyuan and Wen Yi sat down aside, Lu Qiyuan asked Wen Yi in a low voice: "Mr. Wen, who was your Majesty talking to just now?
Chapter completed!
