Chapter two thousand four hundred and forty-seven sleep peacefully
The Jiamo people could not refuse the generous conditions offered by Cai Boyi. The price of three jin of ore per 100 jin was already amazingly high. After all, the ore of the Song Dynasty was only 100 jin of ore.
The price of triple even made the Jiamo people unbelievable. They had speculated before, but even so, they never thought that there would be such a high price.
The cost of three jin of ore after one hundred kilograms of ore is far more than this price after being brought back to the Song Dynasty. Moreover, it is impossible for a single transportation to be only one hundred jin.
But this is just a guess from the Jiamo people. In fact, they don’t understand the basic operating methods of the Song Dynasty. No one will be so stupid that they will take people to transport themselves. On the contrary, this kind of long-distance transportation will inevitably be handed over to a special transportation company.
This is the most different part of the Song Dynasty. Society has a clear and systematic division of labor. Zhao Zhen "arranged" everyone in the Song Dynasty into the division of labor, but they didn't realize it.
There were merchants who were specifically responsible for buying and selling goods in the Song Dynasty, and there were also merchants who were specialized in transport. They had their own fleets and labor, and they didn’t have to worry about everything. They just needed to transport goods from one place to another.
There are people who entrust the company to pick up the goods, and there are also places to harvest. The money is cleared, which is the easiest thing.
Simple steps and simple labor can be exchanged for a considerable amount of value, which has an irresistible temptation for smart merchants.
After these transport convoys transported the goods, they could obtain free money from their employers and distributed them to the transported labor. No one could earn dozens of traffic in one trip, but the returns were high.
Similarly, the merchants who bought ore are not stupid. The money is much cheaper than recruiting people themselves. The transportation fleet is only responsible for transportation. They do not care about what they are transporting or how much they are worth, but only charge according to weight and distance.
But a hundred guan of money is nothing to merchants who can buy a large amount of ore, it is a drop in the bucket. The value of these high-quality iron ore is almost negligible.
There is a benign auxiliary relationship between the two parties, which is why the business of the Song Dynasty is constantly booming, and the industrial chain has been formed!
After the ore merchants transported the ore back to the Song Dynasty, they would sell it to smelting factories at market prices. After these factories smelting the ore, they would sell it to people who need steel.
Then the people who bought the steel made all kinds of utensils, from kitchen knives made from corners to parts of various machines, these are the most common things.
Previously, because the models of steam engines and various machines were not unified, Zhao Zhen issued a special order that any machine made in the Song Dynasty must have unified standards so that it can be repaired and replaced.
The emperor's will was very useful in this era, and it also facilitated the manufacturers of various factories and parts. While efficiency was improved, many emerging industries also made up for the gaps.
The business of the Song Dynasty is constantly booming, with more and more types and more machines used, and talents participating in research and development and research are constantly emerging.
The emergence of the industrial chain led to the connection between the business names and the business names, between the business names and workers, between the business names and the yamen, and even between the officials who studied things.
What the Song Dynasty lacks now is talents. Not only the imperial court needs talents to investigate things, but also private businesses. Factory also needs talents. No one can tell how much profit a talent who is proficient in investigating things will increase the factory and business.
You should know that the first person who invented the machine textile machine not only made a lot of money by himself, but also bought the person who invented him and made a lot of profits.
Therefore, talents who are proficient in investigating things are highly praised in the Song Dynasty. These skilled craftsmen among the Jiamo people will not only be recruited by the Song Dynasty court, but also by the folk merchants in the Song Dynasty.
To some extent, this was prompted by Zhao Zhen. He first delegated power to the official business. The official business recruited skilled craftsmen, which made the status of craftsmen rise and also brought great profits to the official business.
As a result, merchants from the Song Dynasty also began to recruit secretly. After the court did not object, they began to formally recruit talented people with superb skills.
These people are no longer called craftsmen, but are called judging people. Building their own family is the best affirmation of these technological progress.
Of course, if you want to become a resident of things, you must have something to show off, otherwise no one will believe it.
These Jiamo people are different. They will soon become popular figures in the Song Dynasty, which is also inseparable from the "propaganda" of Zhao Zhen, the emperor of the Song Dynasty.
Think about it, even the emperor had to select talents from the Jiamo people. It can be seen that these Jiamo people were really talented and knowledgeable, and merchants from the Song Dynasty must have flocked to them.
You should know that the merchants in the Song Dynasty were quite clever. They not only could use money to win people's hearts, but also used all kinds of tricks and various means. Of course, there were those who were polite and those who were despicable and shameless.
These are nothing to do with Zhao Zhen. This is a spontaneous act of the people. The court will not endorse them...
In a peaceful state, Zhao Zhen's emperor's emperor set off again, but there was a group of Jiamo people following behind the emperor. They began to be surprised after boarding the carriage of the Song Dynasty.
These people are all talented people recruited by Zhao Zhen for the Gewu Academy. They are not officials of Gewu now, and at most they are just craftsmen.
Only after being selected by the Jujuan Academy can one become a Jujuan official. Of course, the lucky one is only this group of people. Their descendants need to participate in the official imperial examination held by the court before they can be awarded official positions.
In fact, what Zhao Zhen unexpectedly did was the unexpected gains in this Western Expedition. The high-quality iron ore of the Jiamo people and the Queen's Valley were each needed by the Song Dynasty.
Zhao Zhen, sitting in the carriage, breathed a sigh of relief. His generous regular clothes made him feel uncomfortable. However, after the war, Sancai immediately took out the clothes and asked Zhao Zhen to put them on, saying, "The king will not be strong in the court, and the soldiers will take off their armor when they return to the court!"
Zhao Zhen knew that this was to stabilize people's hearts and to appear calm in front of court officials, and to let the people see the king's demeanor, otherwise it would give them the feeling that even the emperor was put on the battlefield.
The carriage was getting faster and faster in the bumps. This was a brilliant victory. The Song army won quite decently, not only forcing Jiao Siluo to defeat the West, but also because the Song army suffered very few casualties.
In such a large war, it is unprecedented to achieve such a huge war loss ratio. As Zhao Zhen said, he changed the rules of war in this era, and huge technological generation differences and cracks appeared between the enemy and us.
