The next day, early morning.
After dinner at Lu Yuan's house, Yulan girl rode her bicycle to open the door early.
Now that there are employees in the shop, we can't just go there at nine o'clock in the morning, we have to open the door early.
Of course, this matter will be the job of Yulan girl from now on.
As for Su Liyan, just like before, just take a rest at home after eating and go back at ninety o'clock.
Today, Lu Yuan also wants to go out, but he won't go to the shop.
Lu Yuan has completely arranged the affairs of this shop, so there is no need for Lu Yuan to worry about it in the future.
Lu Yuan plans to go to Qingbei University today.
Go and see how the students in your school are doing.
Although the homework was said to be due in five days, Lu Yuan, as the principal, should go and check it out in advance.
If there is something that everyone can't understand, Lu Yuan can also help answer it.
After all, the ultimate purpose of homework is not homework, but to enable students to learn knowledge.
If you do homework just for the sake of homework, you have to let these people think for themselves. As a result, these people think according to wrong ideas.
The last assignment turned in was wrong, so what’s the point of this assignment?
"Brother, just take the money. The store doesn't need that much money. When I wait for the goods to be purchased, I'll ask my brother for it."
Su Liyan, who was sitting by the bed, looked at the pile of notes and said softly.
Lu Yuan sat aside and shook his head and said:
"No, the money will just stay with you. When the time comes, if you need to purchase goods or something, you can settle the accounts directly. It's troublesome to go back and forth like this."
After Lu Yuan finished speaking, he said again:
"From now on, if the store lacks or needs anything, you can just ask someone to buy it. Remember, you must not be petty.
For the things in this store, just buy the best and use the best.
The customers in our shop are all rich ladies, and the items in our shop must be of high quality.
Although it costs a lot of money, don’t feel bad, we are doing this to earn more in the future.
Do you understand? "
Lu Yuan is still a little worried about his wife, who knows how to live well.
This is of course a good thing.
Naturally, doing business also requires careful calculation.
However, you can’t be careful about everything, and some money can’t be saved.
For example, the tea served to guests in this shop requires three yuan per tael for good tea. You can't pay for thirty cents per tael.
These ladies know how to taste it right away.
Then there’s the dim sum, and that means you have to have fresh dim sum freshly made by Lou Wai Lou.
This money cannot be saved.
Money cannot be saved, it must be earned.
Su Liyan nodded repeatedly listening to her man's words.
In the end, Su Liyan hid the money. She said it was hidden, but in fact it was placed under the bedside table.
Afterwards, Lu Yuan rolled out his car, and after saying hello to his mother-in-law, Lu Yuan rode his car to take his wife to Fangshi.
The road to Fangshi is convenient. Lu Yuan just sends his wife to Fangshi first, and then goes to school by himself.
On the way, Lu Yuan talked to his wife about his business philosophy.
Su Liyan was sitting sideways on the back seat, one arm around her man's waist, her beautiful face pressed against her man's back.
No matter what Lu Yuan said, Su Liyan nodded obediently.
After Lu Yuan told his wife about tea and snacks, he said:
"This is just a small amount of money. In the future, there will be more and more people in the Imperial City, and our shop will also expand.
When there are more customers, we will have to hire a professional tea master.
So, don’t save this money. Think about how much money we can make. Saving a little money is not only meaningless, but also prone to bad things. "
Su Liyan sat in the back and nodded her head in a sweet voice:
"Well~ I listen to my brother~"
Lu Yuan thought, waiting for a month or two to see how it goes.
If this turnover can be stabilized, not only can we make a net profit of more than 5,000 yuan a day, but even one or two thousand yuan a day.
Then Lu Yuan had to think about whether he wanted to expand the lower berth.
If we expand the shop, it will not be easy to expand it with the current shop.
Now that there are more and more people in the Imperial City, the price of this shop has also gone up.
For example, the location of Lu Yuan's shop costs 20,000 yuan per shop.
After these two months, I'm afraid there will be more.
So I want to buy a neighbor's shop or something. Although I can afford it, I always feel that I can do more things with the money.
Lu Yuan planned to buy a piece of land outside the city and build a building directly.
Now the imperial city is expanding outwards.
Lu Yuan hasn't been delivering clothes these days. Naturally, he has been traveling all over the city to deliver clothes.
There are signs of construction everywhere.
Moreover, as Lu Yuan said, there has been a real discussion in the court recently about whether to demolish the city wall.
Of course, no one now thinks that the city wall is a cultural relic that needs to be protected. The opposition group is mainly worried that there will be no city wall.
If something happens to the Gilded Dynasty during this period, if troops come to the city or something, the imperial city will not be protected by the city wall, wouldn't it be dangerous?
Of course, those who agreed to demolish the city wall felt that the gilded dynasty was already half-dead.
At most, we can attack Caogu on the border. If the Zhou Dynasty doesn't destroy them now, it's because they are burning incense, so how can they still invade.
Anyway, this matter has been under discussion recently.
Lu Yuan did not participate at all.
Anyway, what will happen to the city wall in the end is another matter, but it will definitely be expanded outwards.
Lu Yuan planned to find an opportunity to go to the Ministry of Industry and ask, well... even Lu Yuan could go to Gu Qingwan directly and ask.
I just want to ask, if the imperial city wants to expand in the future, which direction should it be developed first?
Is it the south, the east, or the west.
Whichever direction it develops first, Lu Yuan would buy a piece of land in that direction, circle the land first, and then build a building.
It is similar to a modern star hotel.
Of course, that requires a lot of money.
Even if Lu Yuan took out the 300,000 left by his third uncle, it would not be enough.
However, isn’t this patent coming soon?
In the past two months, my shop has also made money.
Moreover, building a building does not mean that it will be all taken out at once.
This is calculated based on the construction period, and a portion is paid each month, such as 100,000 this month and 80,000 next month, so that Lu Yuan's family can make money while building.
Moreover, when the time comes, you can ask Liu Shoucai to build it for you, and you can save a lot of money.
To build a building like the one Lu Yuan mentioned, including the final decoration, it would take at least one or two years?
If the money is divided into twenty payments, the pressure will be much less.
Of course, if it is not enough in the end, then Lu Yuan will go to Gu Qingwan to borrow money.
Soon after arriving at the door of his shop, Lu Yuan stopped and looked at his wife and said:
"Have a good meal at noon. Our family earns so much money every day, so you have to eat well and don't make do with it, otherwise I will be angry."
Su Liyan stood at the door of her shop, her face full of happiness and she said:
"I know~"
"Brother, you should also have a good lunch~"
Lu Yuan grinned and said:
"Brother will definitely not treat me badly. Just eat well and let's go~"
After that, Lu Yuan rode his bicycle and left Fangshi.
There are few people here in the morning, so ride out quickly, otherwise you will have to come down and push the bike when there are more people later.
After Su Liyan watched her man leave with great sweetness, she turned around and entered the shop.
You have to work hard and earn more money so that you can support your own man~
…
Lu Yuan came all the way to the school and waited until he entered the intersection of the street.
Lu Yuan looked at the Imperial College strangely.
At this time, the intersection leading to the Imperial College was covered with red carpets, and there were big red flowers hanging on the large archway at this intersection.
Lu Yuan looked at the Imperial College with a strange expression, huh?
What kind of fancy work is this? ?
Lu Yuan blinked and ignored it, turning a corner and entering the campus of Qingbei University.
The construction of Qingbei University is the top priority among the tasks assigned by Gu Qingwan to the Ministry of Industry.
Four days.
The foundations of this school's teaching buildings and other buildings have already been dug.
The campus grounds here are all paved with bluestone tiles.
It's no longer just dirt like before.
Lu Yuan looked at the pieces of foundation and was very satisfied.
Don't look at the fact that Qingbei University now only has a few hundred students.
A teacher in Luyuan, Canada.
This is just the first batch.
After Lu Yuan finishes teaching these students, Qingbei University will continue to operate.
Of course, Lu Yuan will be a serious principal by then, and he won't come to give lectures every day.
That would be too tiring.
At that time, Lu Yuan will keep some good students from the first batch of students and let these people become teachers.
Soon, Lu Yuan rode his bicycle to the practical workshop.
Just as Lu Yuan said at the beginning, there is a shed above, which is supported by several large logs.
The surrounding walls are iron walls.
It was similar to the cafeteria and dormitories of Qingbei University now.
Before Lu Yuan went in, he heard the commotion and clanging sounds inside.
When Lu Yuan went in, he saw a bunch of students, groups of four inside, either squatting on the ground, surrounding a table, or even on stools.
There are various parts and valves all around.
At a glance, in front of these students, almost all of them were steam engines half the size of a man.
Of course, the homework Lu Yuan told these people was not just to build a steam engine half the size of a man.
But a steam power plant.
To put it simply, you can’t just boil water.
But it must be able to move.
To put it simply, just like Lu Yuan's locomotive, it is a standard steam power device.
Powered by steam.
As for now, the steam power devices Lu Yuan saw were all kinds of strange.
There is a humanoid steam-powered device, which is simply a robot.
There are also steam ducks, steam dogs...
It can be said to be all kinds of strange things.
From Lu Yuan's point of view, these things are useless at all, and the subsequent development is useless.
It's a bit like handiwork...
But that’s not important. What’s important is that if my students have ideas, that’s a good thing!
Lu Yuan remembered that when he was watching short videos on his mobile phone on Earth, he often saw some great cleverness in the videos of inventions and creations.
No matter what this vlogger comes up with, there will always be some people with brain problems just grinning and yelling.
What's the use? What's the use?
Useless! Useless!
Sometimes when Lu Yuan sees these barrages, he really wants to get into the screen and tear this person's mouth apart.
You know, many things were not invented all at once.
Like an airplane.
Human beings are eager to fly. Before modern aircraft were manufactured, many pioneers made attempts.
For example, the wings of airplanes are made like birds that can be folded and flapped.
Of course, without exception, these failed.
But although it failed, it provided ideas and ideas for subsequent inventions.
Another example is cars. Speaking of which, after the steam engine was invented, steam cars also appeared.
However, steam cars were too bulky and impractical, so they were abandoned.
But can you say that the person who built the steam car at that time had something wrong with his head?
Obviously, no.
The times need pioneers, and these people are the pioneers.
Lu Yuan's arrival caused a sensation among everyone.
Everyone looked at Lu Yuan with sharp eyes, looking forward to the principal coming to his work to comment.
Everyone hopes to get praise from Lu Yuan.
In addition to awarding stars.
I also hope to be recognized by the principal.
For these personal works, regardless of whether they are useful or not, Lu Yuan always finds ways to praise them.
As for whether the works of these people are useful?
Um……
For now, it's of no use.
In fact, it’s no wonder. After all, the most widely used thing for steam engines is trains.
In addition to trains, there are also some machinery and other things.
I didn't learn mechanics, but Lu Yuan did it.
Naturally, these people can't do anything useful.
Lu Yuan watched it from beginning to end, originally thinking it was almost the end.
During the last few groups, I saw something and my eyes suddenly lit up.
What this group is doing is a boat.
Lu Yuan made a mistake just now. In addition to trains, steam engines also have another very important one, and that is boats!
This group is not building a modern standard propeller boat.
It is a steam-driven oar, that is, there are two rows of oars on both sides of the ship. This oar is an ordinary oar.
To modern eyes, this is a bit funny.
But this is normal. Invention and creation are all inseparable from the limitations of the current era.
This group of people could think of using a steam engine to drive the ship, but they couldn't think of replacing the paddle with a lighter propeller.
However, as long as they have this idea, then this group of people will definitely be able to come up with a propeller.
And the biggest role of Lu Yuan, a person from Earth, is to speed up everyone’s thinking~
"How's it going? Did you encounter any problems?"
Lu Yuan calmly came to this group of people and asked with a smile.
As soon as this group of people saw Lu Yuan, they quickly stood up and said:
"headmaster."
Lu Yuan nodded, then raised his chin and pointed at the one-person steam sailing model and said:
"well done."
This group of people scratched the back of their heads shyly and said:
"Actually... it's not very feasible... there are many difficulties..."
Of course this thing is very difficult.
The biggest difficulty is that both rows of oars in this ship are driven by steam.
There are eight oars in one row, and sixteen oars in two rows.
In this case, the steam engine on the ship needs to ensure that the air pressure valves of the sixteen paddles have sufficient air.
If so, how big is this steam engine?
Sixteen oars require too much power, and this design takes up a lot of space.
With this kind of design, the ship won't be able to pull anything. The space inside will be used for the steam engine.
Where is the space to load the goods?
Moreover, this design is extremely prone to failure.
After Lu Yuan listened to the group of people talking about their difficulties with a smile, he grinned and said:
"Actually, just change your thinking."
Um?
After Lu Yuan finished speaking, everyone was stunned.
I don’t understand what Lu Yuan means.
The next second, Lu Yuan picked up the pen and paper on the table next to him, and then drew a propeller.
After Lu Yuan finished painting, everyone was silent for a while, as if they couldn't understand this thing.
I just feel like this thing is a bit like a fan.
However, after about a few seconds, a smart person understood.
The expressions on his face ranged from confusion, to shock, to disbelief.
The expression on Lu Yuan's face was like seeing an immortal.
Lu Yuan casually drew a picture, and a steamship appeared.
Thanks to brother echo for the 100 book coins reward.
…
I should update it twice a day...compared to having an erection, having no money is the scariest thing.
I would rather die of sun than die of poverty.
Ollie, just do it.
