Okay, then I'll place an order with the Citizen Service Center and I'll repair all the public toilets in Chang'an. How about that? "
"Are you coming?" Duan Lun looked at Tang Ping. He knew that this boy was kind-hearted, but he also knew that this boy basically never did business at a loss.
He makes money and resells it to provide more job opportunities, but I have never heard of him making anything for free.
What's more, the number of public toilets in Chang'an is not a small number.
Based on Chang'an's 108 squares, with an average of four built per square, it would cost more than 400 rooms.
The Ministry of Works calculated the cost from the beginning. A large public toilet, including the initial construction and hiring of people to clean it, would cost almost 20 dollars in the first year.
More than 400 rooms are more than 8,000 strings.
The money was not too much, but Duan Lun reported it, but the Ministry of Revenue did not approve it.
You know, the Ministry of Industry has approved too much funding this year.
Especially after Li Shimin wanted to build a car, a series of allocations from mining to road construction to manufacturing and so on were already astronomical.
Even though Datang's situation has improved a lot this year, business taxes are also slowly increasing, and there is also income from the sale of briquettes, etc. This expense still puts great pressure on the household department.
Therefore, for these more than 8,000 yuan, Dai Zhou, the Minister of the Ministry of Revenue, directly told Duan Lun that he could approve it, but it would definitely not be this year. Now that the remaining money of the Ministry of Revenue has been invested heavily in the development and manufacturing of steam engines and automobiles, it has exceeded their expectations. The red line of gold is left.
Therefore, it becomes increasingly difficult to approve new funds.
Duan Lun also understands this matter. The Ministry of Revenue has money, but some must be left to deal with possible natural disasters and so on.
If God makes a joke and there is a drought, flood or even earthquake, you have to have money to deal with it.
So this originally minor matter became something that Duan Lun couldn't solve.
It's just that he didn't expect that Tang Ping would agree and give Quan Zhang An a free repair.
"Well, this matter certainly can't be started immediately, but it is still a big project. After you go back and report to His Majesty, build the Citizen Service Center and Craftsmen Association as soon as possible. This is my first priority for the Citizen Service Center. A list."
"This way, even if a craftsman joins the association, he won't be idle with nothing to do from the beginning."
Duan Lun can imagine such benefits, Tang Ping
(This chapter is not finished, please turn the page)
Being able to do this is of course beneficial to these two organizations. At least many craftsmen are willing to join the craftsmen's association knowing that they can make a fortune by participating in such a large project.
"But the later profits from this public toilet will only be for twenty years, but it will all belong to me."
"Profit?" Duan Lun understood instantly: "Do you want to charge? You have to pay to enter?"
"Hey, how is that possible?" Tang Ping shook his head: "If you have to pay to get in, then those people who come to Chang'an from other places will probably have to find a place to settle."
"Not only is it not free, I also think that the budget of 20 guan is low. At least the cost of building a public toilet should be 40 guan. It would be better to repair it."
When he said this, Duan Lun didn't understand even more. You didn't charge any fees and even repaired it to the best. How were you going to make money? Do you still have twenty years of income going to you?
When I asked Tang Ping how to make money with this thing, Tang Ping just said haha and stopped talking. Duan Lun had no choice. Anyway, Tang Ping could solve the problem without asking the people to collect money and spent twice as much money to build it. Then he could do it himself. do not care.
I went back and reported it to Li Shimin. He didn't have any objections to the Craftsmen Association and the Citizen Service Center, so he approved it directly.
Moreover, the citizen service centers are divided into four, one each in the southeast and northwest to facilitate people to register.
After registering on the first day, it will be sent to the Craftsmen Association on the second day. The Craftsmen Association will dispatch the order, and then on the third day, staff will come to the door with the craftsmen.
Firstly, they are afraid that lawless people will pretend to be craftsmen and take advantage of the loopholes. Secondly, the staff must collect the fees first. There is no need to worry that the craftsmen will not do the work after receiving the money, nor that the craftsmen will not be paid after the work is completed.
Finally, the craftsmen's association and the customer will work together to inspect and accept the products. After passing the inspection, the craftsmen can go to the Citizen Service Center to collect their wages with a certificate issued by the association.
With notices posted on bulletin boards everywhere and publicity in Datang Weekly, the two organizations were soon up and running.
The first big order is Tang Ping’s Chang’an public toilet project.
At first, many people heard that the public toilets were being built and were a little disapproving, but since it was said that there would be no charge, let’s see what happens next.
This thing has no technical content, and with Duan Lun's approval, the cement and brick burners outside the city can give priority to using cement and bricks to build public toilets, so new public toilets began to appear all over Chang'an.
Nowadays, the craftsmen in the Craftsmen Association are paid according to the work they do. Hurry up and get your hands on it.
(This chapter is not finished, please turn the page)
Only when the work is over can the next round of work be scheduled.
Therefore, craftsmen who want to make money work hard. It takes more than half a month to repair a public toilet.
Then comes the furniture.
Yes, you read that right, furniture.
Where is the extra twenty dollars spent on that toilet? On top of these furniture, Tang Ping placed a large order to repair the toilet at the real-name service center, and also placed an order for a lot of furniture.
When the first public toilet was inspected, Duan Lun also came and almost got his nose twisted in anger.
Is this for paying tribute? What the emperor uses in the palace is not as good as what you have here.
The first thing you see when you enter the door are two pots of green plants, which look good and have a faint fragrance.
Walking further inside, there is a newspaper rack with the latest Datang Weekly and some newly printed scripts from Chang'an.
There is a waiter standing next to you, and he tells you with a smile that if you are a big gong, you can get two pieces of papyrus from him.
Then there are several sinks, with soap dishes on the sinks. Each sink is equipped with a water tank, and a ladle is hung on the water tank.
There was a mirror embedded in the wall against the sink. Duan Lun looked at the jealous face in the mirror and said nothing.
After turning his head, there were squatting positions separated one by one. Duan Lun counted them and found that they could be used by twenty people at the same time.
There is also a row of urinals in the men's room.
There was aromatherapy and a mop in the toilet. Tang Ping said that the waiter would ensure the cleanliness of the toilet at all times.
Duan Lun didn't have anything to say about this, or maybe this toilet didn't cost 40 yuan, but just the water and cleaning here cost a lot of labor. Apart from the waiter, he asked Tang Ping, on average, each toilet costs It takes four people to keep things running.
"But how do you make money with this thing?" After reading it, Duan Lun was a little puzzled. This was so well done, but he even thought about whether he should go to the public toilet to settle it after going to work every day before going home.
It is conceivable that if there is no charge, there will be a lot of people coming to the toilet.
"Of course it's advertising!" Tang Ping smiled slightly: "We haven't finished the advertising here yet. How about I take you to the women's restroom next door?"
