Seeing that Li Fu chose to support Tieniu's idea without hesitation, Songbo couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed.
Li Fu also realized that he seemed to be a bit too obvious and did not take care of the old man Song Bo's face, so he tried to comfort him again: "Song Bo, there are specialties in the art industry. Since Tieniu is in this area, If you have strong ability, then do what he says. As the saying goes, those who work hard will govern others, and those who work hard will govern others. You just need to watch Tienniu and don't let him get out of control. "
"That's right." Song Bo could only nod with a wry smile, and then continued: "According to Tieniu's idea, he still wants to establish a trading company by cooperating with the palace to manage Wang Liujian and his inventions. He said that Dayan has a vast territory. If you want to open stores all over the country, without the means of instant communication, the management cost will be too high and the gain will outweigh the loss. It is not as good as a bidding agency. Although the unit price profit will be thinner, small profits but quick turnover will make you profit in the end. The money is just a lot more.
I actually think what he said makes sense, but I always felt that since it was all my own money, I wanted to give some of it out for free, and I was a little reluctant, so I never agreed. However, Tieniu also said that you cannot become fat by eating alone. You still have to get everyone to eat together to make the plate bigger. When the time comes, by gathering the leading forces from various places, bundling together, helping each other, and forming some kind of community of interests, the Chamber of Commerce will inevitably soar into the sky. As the controller of the Chamber of Commerce, our influence will reach unprecedented heights. "
Li Fu put his hand on the table, tapped the tabletop gently, and listened carefully.
There are no anti-monopoly laws in this world, and a skill is likely to become the basis for a family's prosperity and survival. Therefore, if everyone has any secret recipes or secrets, they are all hidden and passed down from generation to generation as a means of survival. I have never heard of anyone willing to take the initiative to share them with others. It is no wonder that Songbo is short-sighted and cannot accept Tieniu. idea.
After Song Bo finished speaking, Li Fu nodded and said thoughtfully: "I agree with what he said. But why does he think he is qualified to cooperate with our palace?"
"I also asked him this question, and he said it depends on his brain." Song Bo raised his finger and pointed at his head, and replied: "He said that with the income generated by Wang Liujian now, although the prince's palace can have a full meal. Dayton, but for the size of the palace, it is actually dispensable and is the icing on the cake. And he has many other inventions in his mind, no less than or even better than Wang Liujian. As long as the palace agrees to cooperate with him Cooperation, he can be responsible for the operation and management of the chamber of commerce, the bidding and maintenance of agents, and the creation and invention of goods. The palace only needs to hang up a sign as a deterrent, and then sit back and wait to collect the money. The money earned and the benefits spread all over the country The net can definitely take the power of the palace to another two or three levels!"
Yes, it was indeed a very tempting suggestion. Li Fu had already seen the movement in Song Bo's eyes.
If Li Fu hadn't needed to make the final decision, Song Bo would have probably already made the decision and agreed.
"Is it okay to leave the Chamber of Commerce to him and let the palace just take the money?" Li Fu's eyes were lowered, making it difficult for people to see the brightness in his eyes. He asked with a chuckle: "How does he want to cooperate? What else? condition?"
"At first, he whimsically asked for 50-50, but I scolded him. During this period, it has been reduced to 82, our palace is 8, and he is 2. And our 8 is pure profit, and his 2 also includes the operation of the chamber of commerce. and production costs. As for the conditions, the first is to be freed from slavery, and the second is that the royal palace needs to send experts to protect his safety, and there is nothing else." Songbo said.
Directly promise 80% of the net profit to the backer Wangfu?
If a person agrees to all your requests, no matter what the harsh conditions are, he will accept them. Then either this person is your father or mother, or he never thought of keeping his promise from the beginning.
It seemed that this matter would bring no harm to the palace, but Li Fu knew that it was absolutely impossible for a destiny protagonist to be willing to work for others.
After working so hard to build a powerful chamber of commerce, it only takes 20% of the dividends and cedes the power to others?
There must be other calculations and plans in this!
The concessions made now are probably just to paralyze the palace of the patron, and to cover up greater ambitions.
If Tieniu really followed what Tieniu said and left the Chamber of Commerce to him, the palace might indeed be able to receive the money at first and enjoy the benefits. But it is estimated that it won’t be long before the Chamber of Commerce will escape the control of the palace and become Tieniu’s private property.
Tieniu relied on the power of his backer, the Prince's Palace, to build up the Chamber of Commerce, and then kicked it away after using it. By then, the Chamber of Commerce had become powerful and had many interests involved, and the Palace could not easily do anything to him, so it could only watch him do it little by little. It was so big that it even trampled the patron's palace under its feet.
After going through the possible subsequent plots in his mind, Li Fu asked calmly: "So now he is not letting the hawk see the rabbit. If the palace does not agree to cooperate and does not give him freedom, he is ready to fall." You’ve stopped slacking off, haven’t you?”
"I guess that's what he means." Songbo nodded and said, "He was quite active a few days ago. When the wine shop opened, he helped plan activities, took the initiative to formulate future plans, and gave a lot of good suggestions. But seeing that I never gave him permission and had no intention of agreeing to his request, I never asked about the wine shop again, nor did I invent anything new... No."
Halfway through the words, Song Bo remembered something and changed his tone: "It's not like he didn't invent new things. He made a bracelet that was made of the best jade material. He called it Liuli. This bracelet was called "glazed glass" by him. He gave it to Liuli. According to him, he could mass-produce this kind of Liuli at a very low cost. My young prince, if we master the method of making Liuli, our palace will be equivalent to having an inexhaustible gold mine! "
Liuli?
It seems that this is the bait thrown out by Tieniu, waiting for his backer, the Prince's Mansion, to bite the hook.
Li Fu only knew that colored glaze was made of sand, but he really didn't know exactly how to make it.
"Okay, then agree to him!" Li Fu nodded slightly and said: "Just follow what he said, divide it into 80 and 20, and let him start setting up a chamber of commerce. However, if you want to get rid of your slave status, you have to let him come up with it again. Two... no! Five inventions on the same level as Wang Liujian and Liuli, and I can agree to let him go free!"
The look in Li Fu's eyes was incomprehensible.
Free the Iron Bull? That is impossible!
Waiting for him to establish the Chamber of Commerce, clarify the rules and regulations, and come up with five new inventions, it will be his death.
"good!"
Songbo was very happy, whether it was because the palace had taken advantage of it, or because Tieniu had a chance to regain his freedom.
Looking at Song Bo's leaving figure, Li Fu murmured in a tone that only he could hear: "Is this the terrifying halo of the protagonist? It was clearly said in advance that there was something wrong with Tieniu, but with Song Bo's sophistication and shrewdness, he would still You believe him so easily, get close to him, and say good things for him. Songbo, I hope you won’t go astray. I have always regarded you as a relative..."
