"And Eunuch Wei, I heard he is the most powerful eunuch..."
These wealthy households include some from scholarly families. Considering the education they received and the noble attitude of scholars, some people do not like to associate with eunuchs.
But the late Ming Dynasty was an exception. At this time, ideas were surging and breaking the rules was already a trend. Except for some corrupt Confucians, others included Gao Gong, Zhang Juzheng, Zhang Siwei, Shen Shixing... and even the Donglin Party, all of whom had more relations with eunuchs.
Coming and going.
If there is cooperation, then we will cooperate.
Moreover, these eighteen households are just rich rural people. If they can invest in an industry with royal shares, it will also be a relationship in the future.
In terms of profit, no one will suffer.
Eighteen households readily agreed.
"How do you think about the internal ratio? I won't be too involved for the time being, but I would like to invite you to come out of the mountains and forests, those who can do accounting and writing, those who are bamboo and wood craftsmen, and those who have the channels of Xiangyang and Wuchang.
channel."
"good!"
This time the Eighteen Households were rolled up, and no one wanted to have too little share, so there was no need for further persuasion or mobilization.
Some have allocated 200 acres of land as a site, thus gaining more shares.
Then another family offers 250 acres, who is afraid of who is involved?
Finally, a 300-acre piece of land on the north side of the Han River was selected as a furniture handicraft factory. The family that took out this land actually took out nearly half of its high-quality land, and it still needed to be used in one-third of the land.
Take a little more.
As for the forest land, Yang Yuanwai and others knew each other thoroughly. In this case, they took out all the forest land in the family and invested it. Anyway, for such a large-scale furniture industry, even if their forest land is included, it is estimated that it is only enough for daily raw materials and output.
When fully opened, you need to purchase bamboo and wood from the entire Yunyang.
In the end, there were a total of 5,000 acres of bamboo forest. The forest was bought into shares, and 50 skilled loggers and craftsmen were added accordingly.
There are a total of 6 companies, including the ones that run the mountain, forest and site, and they are considered the largest shareholders among the 18 wealthy households.
Three of the eighteen households were from scholarly families, and they provided more than a dozen servants who could read and do math for accounting, purchasing, and sales, and invested hundreds of taels of silver.
There are also two families who have been doing business in Xiangyang, Wuchang and other places for a long time. They directly bought shares in their local shops and used them as branches for export.
Therefore, these five households can be regarded as the medium shareholders among the eighteen households.
The other ordinary landowners engaged in grain production did not choose their land, nor did they know the industry or technology. Apart from providing some money and manpower to transport, they had no other way to get started.
You can only divide money into smaller parts.
This is Wang Hongyu’s plan to transform landlords who are engaged in technology and industry and gradually eliminate landlords who only have land.
From now on, among the first-level wealthy households in Yun County, there will no longer be the last seven landlords.
But whether they want to resist the development of the industry or not, they are already on their own chariot.
From now on, when I work locally, the resistance in all aspects will be greatly reduced.
This is the effect of the three-three-three system, which unites the front first and then bundles interests.
More importantly, the management rights are in your own hands.
Under the three-three-three system, apart from one-third of his own, Tianqi and Wei Zhongxian's other one-third are just shares, and all the management rights they hold are entrusted to themselves.
In other words, Wang Hongyu owns one-third of the shares and two-thirds of the management rights.
Therefore, two-thirds of the management team of the furniture workshop is made up of our own people, and one-third is made up of local wealthy people. Wang Hongyu also has to listen to who to appoint, how to manage it, and how to divide the work.
This is the benefit of Wei Zhongxian's investment, because whether it is half or another proportion, the management rights discussed are in Wang Hongyu's hands~
It’s time to announce the management team of the furniture workshop.
"We are a big industry, and all aspects of responsibility must have corresponding systems and management. Except for me as the big shopkeeper."
Mastering all kinds of things in the operation will definitely not let others, so I don't want to shirk and humiliate like a rotten scholar.

"In terms of bamboo, wood, ore and other various raw materials, it is managed by five people including Yang Yuanwai, and is assisted by Zhou Gui and others."
Five local wealthy families including Yang Yuanwai, as well as Zhou Gui, the younger generation of the eldest brother Zhou family who is more familiar with the mountains and forests, took charge of management and co-management.
"The construction, operation, and operation of the furniture handicraft workshop are under the responsibility of Hua Yuanwai, Zhou Changshun, and Wang Zheng. Zhang Mingshi of the Hunhe Army and five more of the eighteen are responsible for the assistant management."
This is the most important factory operation. Hua Yuan is responsible for providing the site and manpower. Zhou Changshun is the cousin of the eldest brother Zhou Dunji, and Wang Zheng is the person in charge of technology research and development. The three of them can be regarded as a three-three-three system.
The Zhou family has a lot of people.
Zhou Zhaoan is considered the main force of his own cultural and political team.
Zhou Changshun, Zhou Gui and others are good at business operations and now belong to the civil affairs team.
There are also Zhou Zhi and Zhou Qiang, who are in charge of the servants. They have also been absorbed into the construction of the military camp and have become the basis of the combat strength of the military camp.
The eldest brother's family is very powerful, but after all, their manpower is limited. If we really consider manpower, Liu Fuwen and other original refugees are also very important. So don't worry too much about the Zhou family's influence.
As for the assistant manager, Zhang Mingshi, who holds a higher position in the Hunhe Army, is actually not present often, but he will send someone to oversee the quality of military folding beds and various supplies.
As for the five local families, they are from scholarly families and families with little power. They are responsible for accounting, manpower and food.
"The remaining families are responsible for sales and store operation, and the Hunhe Army and the Zhou family are responsible for assisting."
The last part is led by a wealthy man who owns a store in Xiangyang and Wuchang. Qin Ling and Zhou Xian, a nephew of the Zhou family, are already involved in business intelligence and water and land transportation, so they are most suitable as associate supervisors.
Each of the eighteen wealthy households has a position, the responsibilities and duties are sufficient to serve the public, and there is supervision at all stages of production and circulation.
"We also need to establish a woodworking and machinery research laboratory, which is currently affiliated with the furniture workshop. This is an invention and innovation that His Majesty is concerned about. Now, Wang Zheng is appointed as the manager of the R&D laboratory, and Li Tiezhu is the associate director. Together, they will rely on the foundation of the workshop to conduct research and development in related fields."
Wang Zheng and Li Tiezhu took office.
Everyone present also felt that it was very good. This workshop not only has the royal family as a shareholder, but also has research and development that His Majesty is concerned about. From then on, the relationship will not be shallow.
This arrangement actually allows Li Tiezhu to learn more about culture and theory from Wang Zheng. This cousin is good at craftsmanship, but there is a lot of room for cultural improvement. Mathematics and mechanics can also be explored while he is young.
Therefore, Wang Zheng and Li Tiezhu partnered up, in addition to researching furniture, carpentry and equipment, they also learned and practiced while doing it.
It is also very convenient for Wang Zheng to go to the library in the city. He is stationed in Yunyang, where he can do both translation and invention.
Li Tiezhu's tasks are not heavy. In fact, he still has a lot of energy to devote to the coal mine and the ordnance workshop. He is busy with these three things and basically has no more energy for other things.
I am a bit busy at this time, but my achievements and potential are immeasurable.
The salary in the workshop is also very good, ordinary employees can earn 15 taels of silver per year, and those with experience in bamboo, wood, furniture, etc. can earn more than 25 taels per year.
One tael of silver and 1,000 wen is equivalent to 1,000 yuan. More than 15 taels was considered a low salary in the Ming Dynasty.
"The last thing is naming! We have to give a loud name!"
Everyone brainstormed and discussed lively, and finally came up with a good name.
"Yunhan Furniture Hall!"
"good!"
"Taken from Yunyang and Hanshui! This is of great significance!"
Yunhan Furniture Hall was established.
From then on, the world-famous "Yunhan-Yijia Home" was officially born.
