Chapter 215 A certain business group
"Third brother, what's going on with you?"
"Don't worry, brother, more than fifty group companies have been established!"
"Well, that's good...but you must always pay attention to the matters of newly established group companies and must strictly follow the regulations of the Commercial Department!"
"Don't worry, brother, I will definitely manage those group companies strictly!"
"No, it's not that you need to strictly manage it. The Business Department can only be a supervision and guidance agency from beginning to end. The specific operation of those group companies is their business. The Business Department must not interfere! You only need to supervise the implementation of commercial tax and related systems!"
"I still don't understand why I want all companies to formulate welfare systems according to the model of our Royal Commercial Group?"
"I can't explain this clearly for a while, and you will understand in the future!"
Li Ke nodded and temporarily suppressed the doubts in his heart. Although he understood that the eldest brother must have made sense for this,... he always felt that Li Chengqian convinced the princes and nobles to agree to provide employees with corresponding welfare systems according to the model of the Tang Dynasty Royal Commercial Group. The purpose was not simply for the development of the Tang Dynasty business, but he must have his own ideas!
If Li Chengqian knew Li Ke’s thoughts, he would have secretly examined his recent decline in acting skills, which actually made Li Ke see clues!
Indeed, Li Chengqian spent several days wasting countless spits and almost wrinkled his mouth before convincing those princes and nobles who had their own industries to have another purpose...
After all, Li Chengqian's power alone is limited. It is impossible to completely digest the "students" of nearly 30,000 foreign lands. Therefore, when treating locals and foreign lands differently, he had already thought that locals would be dissatisfied, and also thought of a solution, which was to... pull more people into the water and make the "cake" bigger so that more people can eat it, even if this "cake" is not as delicious as the "cake" of the Tang Royal Commercial Group!
Therefore, including Cheng Zhijie, the Minister of Commerce, almost all the princes and nobles who Li Chengqian had previously engaged in business with him and established their own business groups... Some were doing grain business, some did wood business, and some did silk business, and there were always almost all industries!
The reason why these people were willing to establish a commercial group and agreed to the formulation of employee welfare system based on the reduction of corresponding standards proposed by Li Chengqian in accordance with the Royal Commercial Group model is because Li Chengqian directly asked His Majesty Li Er to give orders, and the tax revenue of these people's commercial group will be reduced by one percentage point!
But don’t underestimate this small percentage point! The many shops and workshops under these people used to pay taxes separately, and were taxed at a rate of 100 to 300! Now, all industries are combined and taxed according to the income of all industries!
The taxes saved from this are nothing compared to the funds required for the welfare system given to employees, and the fool would not agree!
As a Royal Commercial Group, it is also the most important part of the welfare system of these newly established commercial groups, that is, the housing issue... After seeing the housing prepared by Li Chengqian for his employees near Furong Garden, these people no longer think that it is a big deal to allocate housing to employees in Chang'an!
Moreover, according to the algorithm Li Chengqian told them, providing housing to employees, not only did he not pay for it, but he made a lot of money!
...
"Don't miss it when you pass by. Datang Cheng Business Group welcomes you to join. We promise not only to provide employees with free housing, two meals a day, including food and accommodation!"
"Good news, good news, Datang Cui's Commercial Group officially recruits long-term workers, guaranteeing a minimum wage of 200 yuan per month, and providing a free housing unit for five years. What are you still hesitating about, join us quickly!"
"Datang Weishi Commercial Group recruits female garment makers..."
"Datang Fangshi Commercial Group recruits carpenters..."
"Dangtang Du's Business Group..."
When Li Chengqian came to Furong Garden Square again and saw almost the same banners or shouts of recruiting workers by "Kashi Commercial Group", his face was immediately dissatisfied with the black line!
"Third brother, are these people illiterate? What's the fault is that I am the princes and nobles of the Tang Dynasty. It seems like I'm discussing the name in advance, and I have no creativity at all!"
Li Ke was stunned for a moment, and looked at Li Chengqian with some unknown understanding, "It's great, what's wrong, brother, is there any problem with their names?"
"Of course there is a problem! Look at it yourself. All commercial groups have the same name, and they differ because of their surnames! Can't they call China Literature Commercial Group, Lantian Commercial Group, etc., isn't it much better than the same name?"
Li Ke now understood what Li Chengqian meant and said with a embarrassed expression: "This... isn't it what you said by yourself, if you set up a commercial group, you must have unified norms..."
"Hmm? Third brother, don't tell me that this is your idea?" Li Chengqian looked at Li Ke in surprise.
The latter smiled awkwardly and nodded!
Li Chengqian rolled his eyes speechlessly and said angrily: "What I mean by the unified norm is the system, welfare, architecture, etc. I have said that the names must be unified? I know that this is a different commercial group. If I don't know, I think this is a name given to whom the sow gave birth to 180 piglets at one time!"
Li Ke's face turned red with embarrassment and said with a smirk: "Hehe...that...this...it's my fault..."
"Forget it, I've started recruiting workers now. In the future, if someone wants to set up a commercial group, he can't impose any names on them anymore. They have to let them name them themselves!"
"Yes, yes, no more, absolutely no more!"
Li Chengqian did not speak anymore, but walked slowly through the recruitment areas and listened to the people's comments.
"The benefits of Cheng's Commercial Group seem to be better... and the requirements for recruiting people are relatively low. Let's go there?"
"I still want to go to Royal Commercial Group. The benefits of Cheng or other commercial groups here are not as good as them!"
"Oh, don't think about Royal Commercial Group. Now their recruitment requirements have been raised again, and it is just for us locals... there is no need to hang them on a tree. Go to these groups first, and then see if you can join Royal Commercial Group if you have the opportunity in the future!"
"That's right, although the benefits of these groups are not as good as those of the royals, they are also very high!"
