After the notice at the port was posted, the response was unprecedentedly huge. The port office recruited workers and registered them, and then they were paid according to their work and on a piece-rate basis. That is, the more you work, the more you get!
What's more important is that laborers' workload is calculated based on weight. Liang Chuan asked people to directly write down the remuneration standard, one penny per pound!
What is the concept of a pound of cargo weighing a penny? Even if you move a basket of fish ashore, it will weigh at least nearly a hundred kilograms, which is two hundred pennies. In this way, it is not a problem to move a few thousand kilograms of goods in one day. How can it be done? How much money do you make?
Of course, not all of the money goes to the workers. The office charges half of the handling fee. That is, half of the money earned by the workers goes to the port office. Liang Chuan also stipulated the process very well. The cargo ship came to the office to find workers, and the workers were assigned by the office. After the work was completed, the money was advanced to the office, and the office handed the money to the workers.
M!
This operation is simply unheard of. How can the workers understand it? After the accounting gentlemen explained, they barely understood. How unfair was it that the office could take half of the money without having to work?
But after doing some calculations, they immediately understood that under this distribution method, they still earned two, three or even four times as much as before! All the hard-earned money was taken away by the three-headed dragon, and in the end they only had a pitiful amount of hard-earned money.
You can make at least a few bucks a day by doing this, if you work hard! That's a lot of money. It turns out that I can make enough money to buy wine in one day, which makes me laugh!
The workers even wondered, how could this be possible? How could Liang Chuan make money in this way? Then, is the cost too high? How could the owners of these cargo ships be willing to accept it?
In fact, Liang Chuan had settled this account a long time ago. It turned out that when the three-headed dragon controlled Qingyuan Port, he cleverly set up all kinds of false pretenses and forcibly collected various unreasonable handling fees, protection fees, and berthing fees. , plus the money from various relationship management bribes, is more than ten times the management fee I plan to charge them!
Thanks to the fact that the productivity of the marine industry in this era is thousands of times that of agricultural land, these labor costs are completely negligible under the business model. After an ocean trip, the profits of the goods are extremely huge. Only under this model can the cargo owners and traders survive. Otherwise, the ship owners will not be able to pay the money even if they sell the ships.
Liang Chuan's goal is very clear. He only collects two fees. One is protection fee, which is not much. It is levied based on weight or value. The approximate amount is only about one-tenth of what it was when the three-headed dragon was there. One ship collects one. A few hundred will be enough.
The second is the laborer's transportation fee. If you add half the price, the load of a ship is at least tens of thousands of kilograms, and a large treasure ship can weigh hundreds of thousands of kilograms. Think about how much it costs!
The workers' minds were relatively simple. After learning about Liang Chuan's plan, they didn't react very well. All the cargo ship owners at the port went crazy!
It seems that this new collection and management model is a bit harsh on their ship owners, but in fact it is not! After careful calculation, I don’t know how much money I can save in a year under the clearly marked price!
The money for bribes is saved, and the money for moving the goods has to be paid. The price set in the time of the three-headed dragon was still higher than it is now! And it’s not fixed. They charge less when they’re in a good mood, and charge more when they’re short of money. There’s no way to predict whether this ocean trip will make a profit or a loss!
Every ship owner who dares to declare war on the ocean is an extremely smart and bold businessman. Their minds are brighter than ordinary businessmen. After making a calculation, the money saved alone cannot be regarded as profit. Small income!
Think about it, before you wanted to move goods at the port, you had to give gifts to the three-headed dragons and get their permission before moving goods in their territory. Now this threshold has disappeared, and the entire Qingyuan labor force is countless. Flooded over.
They came because they heard about the good conditions now.
Qingyuan Port had been deserted for a day, but under the operation envisioned by Liang Chuan's office, it was revitalized!
Liang Chuan invited Su Wei to the port. Now the office is in the preparation stage and urgently needs the help of such outstanding logistics talents. Whether it is registration or accounting, no one can compare with Su Wei.
Su Wei is an extremely outstanding internal affairs talent, comparable to Xun Lingjun Zhuge Wuhou, but no one has discovered his talent.
Back then, this old boy also came to his door by himself. As soon as he came to the door, he said that he would lead him to rebel, which really shocked Liang Chuan! It's fine now. There is a place like Qingyuan Port to place this old boy, so we don't have to worry about him being restless!
In half a day, hundreds of workers were registered in the ledger.
Funerals are being held in Qingyuan City these days, but the grief of the death of a loved one seems to be quickly forgotten. As soon as Liang Chuan's recruitment information comes out, everyone who has a man or a strong woman will apply for the Hong Kong product. Yong, for fear of falling behind and not being able to catch up with this good thing!
Liangchuan's management regulations are not written for fun. Some workers used to work for the Three-Headed Jiao and others, and over time they developed a vicious spirit from the inside out. They even wanted to come to the port management office to cause trouble in such a nonchalant manner. , who would have thought that before any big storm was caused, the adult management team repaired it severely, broke off a few front teeth, and then threw the person directly into the river!
He has his own group of adult management team members sitting in charge, and the disobedient and lazy ones who are causing trouble will all be eliminated. If anyone still dares to cause trouble, he will be thrown directly into the river!
Prestige must be earned through boxers!
The news of the purge at Liangchuan Port spread quickly, and almost all the bosses of the people and ships received the news. Liangchuan had completely replaced the three-headed dragon and became the new overlord of Qingyuan Port!
Liang Chuan was also very polite and allowed Su Wei to lead Golden Mountain and Chen Fugui, plus a group of younger brothers, to board the boat one by one to collect protection fees. In one afternoon, they collected more than 10,000 yuan. .
No wonder everyone says that Qingyuan is full of gold, no wonder the three-headed dragon is going to kill him to death for the control of the port, Si Fangxing is sulking, and the senior officials don’t even want to leave Qingyuan! It’s all because of this cornucopia!
The money Liang Chuan received was used for the operation of the port office. The brothers who came out from Fengshan with him were here to make a lot of money. They had to be paid, and then the sanitation and repair of the port products cost money. Si Fang was also responsible for the bulk of the money. If you are in the business, you cannot lose his money, otherwise you will fall out and lose your official background. If someone offers you a higher price one day, your fate may be no different from that of a three-headed dragon!
The members of the adult management team and the intelligence team each shared five dollars on the first day. Their enthusiasm became even higher after receiving the money. There were some small things that Liang Chuan didn't have to explain, they all treated them as important things and completed them themselves!
Five dollars!
Their parents or sisters are either cutting sugar cane in Fengshan or making bamboo weaving at home with Li Erhua. They only earn a few bucks a month, so they can have the confidence to eat meat and change their clothes during the holidays. Beautiful clothes!
They make more money in one day than their family makes in a month! How could they not be grateful to Liang Chuan!
In one year's time, the North Shore has long lost its poor and shabby temperament in the countryside, and all the people on the North Shore have gained an indescribable sense of self-confidence overnight!
This is the charm of money, and it is also the charm of Liang Chuan's own personality. Only this person can do what he says and lead them to make big money. This is true!
Making money really comes true to that saying, they will go up to the sword and go down to the sea of fire without any hesitation!
Compared to not having enough to eat and wear warm clothes all year round and not being able to get a wife, they don't care at all if they bleed, that's how money is earned! They are really scared of poverty at their core!
Now is the time when the southeast wind is strong, and ships from the southeast are still coming in a steady stream. At least dozens of ships enter the port every day, and the wealth they bring is not something Liangchuan can snatch or steal, so he only takes this small part of the protection. Everyone is willing to pay the fee.
Of course, there were some who refused to hand over the money, but that night the bottom of the boat was flooded with water. .
Liang Chuan asked Luo Xian's team to carefully protect his tobacco, mustard roots and sweet potatoes and take them back to Fengshan at night. He had already told Yi Niang the planting method. The next step was to take these grown plants back and harvest them. Then propagate again, and finally when you have collected enough seeds, the scale of production in the future will not be comparable to what it is now.
There are three crops, one is a cash crop, one is a food crop, and the other is a seasoning crop. Each of the three has value, and they are all treasures that cannot be exchanged for a lot of money. Liang Chuan values them even more than the port.
The money earned by the port belongs to itself, but these three crops will definitely benefit the people of the world in the future. I am afraid there will be wars and years of famine in the future. They can save countless lives!
The port is too complicated. It is impossible for me to guard it for the rest of my life. Sooner or later, someone will be jealous. When they take a fancy to this place, if I can't defend it, I will have to hand it over.
What is yours is the most precious. If these three kinds of things can be passed down from generation to generation, your family and friends will live on forever without fear of not being able to survive!
Si Fangxing was extremely satisfied with Liang Chuan's handling of the port matter. He originally thought that Zhao Weixian would not take kindly to this matter, but he did not expect that Weiyuan Tower did not respond at all and just let it go as if it was a fart. .
This account was directly recorded on the heads of the three water tyrants, and the execution documents were delivered to the Fuzhou Punishment Division on the same day. I am afraid that the decision documents for Wenzhan will be issued soon. .
Si Fangxing made an appointment with Gao Chun and Liang Zao, and took Liang Chuan and others to the familiar box in Xiangsu Fang to gather together. Liang Zao also heard that Liang Chuan was supposed to be dead, but he didn't expect that he was alive and well!
The only one missing among the four of them was the talkative Ling Hu.
After drinking this time, it was obvious that the friendship was no longer the same as before. Everyone seemed to have something hidden in their hearts. Gao Chun did not dare to be too casual with Liang Chuan. Si Fangxing valued Liang Chuan as always, and Liang Zao still valued Liang Chuan. Still can't believe it!
Back then, I was a poor country boy who was nothing like a country boy. Now he has become a distinguished guest in this hotel. His life situation has changed so much that it is simply embarrassing!
The transaction between Liang Chuan and Si Fangxing could not be made public, so the two of them kept silent in a tacit understanding.
Before Liang Zao started drinking, Liang Chuan toasted him first and said, "Brother Liang Zao, I have a request. Please help me!"
Liang Zao originally thought that he would be alone today as usual, but he didn't expect that Zhang would still ask for help from him? Could it be that we want to make dragon boats again?
Liang Zaodao: "It doesn't matter, Sanlang, but you know my skills. I can only build ships, but I can't even make rice, hahaha!"
This is what Liang Chuan appreciates about people like Liang Zao. If he does not allow others to dictate what he is good at, he is the authority! If it were someone else's domain, he would never say a word.
Liang Chuan said: "It's like this, Lao Liang, I have some business recently, which is between Nanyang and Qingyuan, but I don't have a sea ship on hand yet, so... I want to discuss it with you..."
Liang Zao laughed loudly and said: "It turns out it's about the boat. What do I think it is? This is not simple. As long as you have enough money, I will get you any boat you want!"
Liang Chuan looked at Si Fangxing and Gao Chun next to him, and said a little embarrassedly: "The price of your treasure ship is too high. I can't afford to buy it in full."
In fact, Liang Chuan has a lot of money on hand. The two IOUs can buy several treasure ships, but now he doesn't want to take out the IOUs. Yi Niang also has a lot of money. It's not until the last minute. , he will never put all his money in one basket. If it turns over, it will be a big deal!
Liang Zaodao: "Sanlang, you must have some calculations in your mind!"
Liang Chuan said: "Old Liang, do you think this will work? Give me one of the finished ships in the factory that has not yet been sold. I will pay part of the order first, and the rest will depend on the installment payment or wait until I turn over the goods next year." Pay you, you choose one..."
installment! If there is such an operation, Liang Zao would not even pay attention to him, but this is Liang Chuan and no one else. Even Si Fangxing also spoke: "Old Liang, we are all old brothers, who is Sanlang?" Still not sure? I will agree to this for you first. If he doesn’t pay the rest, I will guarantee that if anything happens in the future, you can just come to me!"
Gao Chun didn't have much money at hand, and his eldest brother Gao contributed to the money he had, but he didn't want to lose face, so he also patted his chest and pledged his support.
Liang Chuan looked at the two people and smiled. Now that Si Fangxing was on the same side as him, he would naturally help him. Gao Chun was very loyal and also stood up.
"Don't worry, Lao Liang, I have a good reputation and won't make it difficult for you!"
Lao Liang smiled bitterly and said: "Okay, there is a treasure ship in the dock, you can take it away first!"
Liang Chuan thought to himself: Xia Dehai, now you can finally be useful!
