Becoming a stepmother of three children gives me space

The final agreement reached between the Ministry of Revenue and Xiao Yunxi,

In the first year, the government provided the court with cement worth 240 million taels, and the payment consisted of two parts:

Xishan has 5 mu of limestone mines.

The 48 mu of mountain forest land on the southern foot of Yanshan Mountain includes a lime mine, a clay mine and a coal mine.

In Shuntian Prefecture, 100 miles from the capital, there is a small fierce fire oil mine in Daxing County.

The total price is 190 million taels.

in addition,

The imperial court provided 1000 million jin of iron ore, 200 million jin of copper ore, and 2000 jin of pure jade every month as compensation for the remaining 50 taels.

After signing the contract and sending Du Minglai away, Xiao Yunxi took out some cash as compensation.

According to the established pattern,

Xiao Yunxi is a manufacturer and does not participate in sales. The ex-factory price of each bag of cement is 220 wen. No matter how high the selling price is, it has nothing to do with her.

The mineral resources and copper, iron ore and jade provided by the court were calculated at 5 wen per catty and were all transferred to her name. She should be compensated for the difference.

"We can't have it."

"This money of my sister-in-law has nothing to do with us."

They had not contributed anything to the court's business, so it was inappropriate for them to take the money. Xu Chengzhi and Shen Cong were determined not to accept it.

Before they agreed to cooperate, Xiao Yunxi and the emperor had already decided to work together, but they had not signed a formal contract. In fact, this business had nothing to do with them.

Xiao Yunxi was determined to give it because she didn't want to have any disputes over property rights.

The contract between Xiaojiazhuang and the six families was signed yesterday, and the official signing with the court was today. Legally speaking, she has to pay the difference.

Xu Chengzhi and Shen Cong don’t want it now because more than one million taels of silver are not enough to make them interested.

The 48 mu of forest land in Yanshan has a terrifying future value. If it is developed, the Xu and Shen families will fall out and insist on dividing the profits, which will put her in a passive position.

"Just take 50 taels as compensation."

Zhou Jin made the final decision.

Although the Shen and Xu families did not contribute much, they did play a role in resisting the pressure from the emperor and the court.

According to the proportion of 50 taels, each of the two families received 10 taels, which was considered as hard work compensation, which was reasonable.

They took the money and found a reason to sign a supplementary agreement, which saved their face. Xiao Yunxi also had no worries, and everyone was happy.

Once the ownership of the minerals is confirmed, the next step is to sell the cement.

The number of boilers in cement plants is still increasing. The improved large-scale boilers have high production capacity and short firing cycle. The production capacity has reached 6500 million kilograms per month.

The imperial court had 4000 million jin, 500 million jin was used for refugee resettlement, and 2000 million jin needed to be sold.

The mistress of the Shen family comes from a prominent family in Jiangnan. The Shen family’s business has been running in Jiangnan for many years, and they are responsible for sales in the Jiangnan region.

The Xu family has not made much progress in business, but Duke Rui has fought in the south for many years and has a wide network of contacts. I believe they will be able to make progress soon.

Introduce Zheng Tianming to the connections in the south. From now on, this line will be handed over to Zheng Tianming, and the Zhou family will be mainly responsible for the areas near the capital and the Central Plains.

Dabao's fiefdom is in Guanzhong. The Qin Palace is responsible for the Guanzhong area. He also has new military camps and refugee resettlement sites to manage, so he temporarily handed it over to Zheng Tianming.

As for the northwest and surrounding areas, Zheng Tianming had already opened up trade routes when he was in the northwest.

“How is the sales price determined?”

"Let's just go with 8 wen. In the Jiangnan region, where people are more affluent, the price is 9 wen, and in the south, where it's a long way off, the price is 10 wen."

Compared with traditional adhesives, cement has obvious advantages. Even if it is sold at 30 wen, it still has a very high cost performance, and the price does not exceed 10 wen.

Is to leave enough profit space for local partners,

Xu Chengzhi, Shen Cong, and Zheng Tianming were all there, and Xiao Yunxi brought up the idea of ​​cooperating to open a restaurant and sell soap and snacks.

They can herd one sheep or a flock of sheep, sell cement, soap and snacks, and with the help of their connections, they can expand the soap and snack business rapidly.

"Soap is my brother-in-law's property?"

Shen Cong opened his mouth wide in surprise, enough to fit an egg in.

The soap from the northwest was introduced to the capital and became the hard currency in the circle of wealthy ladies. The supply was in short supply, and some people offered 100 taels for a piece, and there was an endless stream of people wanting it.

Zhou Jin brought back some soap, which was given to the Shen sisters and his mother. He took 10 yuan and gave it away. His mother, who had never hit him, showed him through her actions what motherly love was.

During that beating, his father didn't even dare to interrupt, because soap was so hard to come by in the capital.

I didn't expect that the soap was actually Xiao Yunxi's property. No wonder my cousin could give so much. It turned out that it was their own thing, so I could take as much as I wanted.

Xu Chengzhi's family had little business, so he was not so extravagant as to spend 100 taels on a bar of soap. He had never heard of soap, but he knew about restaurants.

Just based on the two dishes promoted by the restaurant, they have attracted the favor of many gourmets in Beijing. When the restaurant opens, the business will probably be very booming.

I didn’t expect that the restaurant was not owned exclusively by Zheng Tianming, but also by Xiao Yunxi. And from what Zheng Tianming said, those dishes were invented by Xiao Yunxi?

"We want to open our products and restaurants throughout Daxia. We need the connections and channels of the Shen and Xu families. If you're willing, we'll give them a 1% share each."

If you want to earn more, you have to make the cake bigger.

If Zheng Tian wants to expand his business across the country, it may take more than 10 years. With the Xu and Shen families backing him up, the south will be taken over quickly.

By giving away 3% of the profits, they can earn more and have less worries.

There was no reason for Xu Chengzhi and Shen Cong to refuse. Selling cement, soap and snacks at the same time, and opening a restaurant could also increase their income. Why not?

Xiao Yunxi took out a business plan, Taiping Supermarket?

Everyone looked confused. What is a supermarket?

"It's like a grocery store, where they categorize the goods. They sell cement, snacks, and soap."

Everyone looked at me, I looked at you, and felt that it was a bit unreliable.

The cement is dirty, put it together with food?

Soap is a luxury item and must be listed separately. If it is placed together with cement and snacks, will the ladies be willing to buy it?

"Supermarkets and specialty stores will have them. I can't give you a clear idea of ​​how they operate just by explaining it to you. You'll understand once I open my first store in Beijing."

The snack and soap factories have not been built yet, so for now they just need to sell the cement.

Shen Cong, Xu Chengzhi and Zheng Tianming were full of enthusiasm and used all the connections and resources they could to contact merchants from all over the country and distribute goods to make money.

Xiao Yunxi did not return to the capital to run a supermarket for the time being. She accompanied Dabao to the new military camp construction site to supervise the work, and occasionally visited the refugee resettlement site.

The construction of the new military camp and workshop progressed rapidly. Thanks to the efforts of more than 2000 people, the new military camp was officially completed on the 21st day after the start of construction.

It reflects the true speed of Daxia.
