I Build an Aircraft Carrier in the Ming Dynasty

A few days later, Wu Changqing held what may be the first tender meeting in human history at the Governor's Palace.

He invited all the powerful and wealthy businessmen in the city over, and then drew up investment projects for them to bid on. Whoever gave a large investment amount and had a good business idea would give the project to him.

Because he had promised Sun Daoming before, Wu Changqing also sent someone to tell him about the rice mill in advance, let him know the bottom line, and took the initiative when bidding.

Of course, if someone's conditions are much better than Sun Daoming, then Wu Changqing can't be blamed. He is a dignified governor, and if he can give Sun Daoming a word of mouth, he is already flattering him.

In the hall of the Governor's Mansion, many businessmen have gathered, and everyone has a smile and expectation on their faces.

Because they had been told before they came that it was Wu Changqing who had to give them some business that could make a fortune.

Rich business, perfume? Soap? BMW?

They have seen too many fortune-making businesses from Wu Changqing. When they hear that they have the opportunity to get involved in these businesses, can they be unhappy.

They are jealous of the Chen family, and the Tong family and Wu family have not been around for a day or two.

This time, they will not miss the opportunity again.

"Manager Cui, you have already invested a lot of money in the perfume business, why are you still coming to grab new business with us, can't you leave a mouthful of soup for us to drink?"

Han Sanli, a businessman who has a good relationship with Cui Mingchong, complained to him that Cui Mingchong had previously obtained the right to operate perfume in the southern Zhili area because of his credit for cooperating with Wu Jun to break the city.

Although it is only a profit from terminal sales, this profit is not low, and many people have envied it.

And now, Cui Mingchong is here again. Not only Cui Ming rushed here, but also Tong Youwei, which put a lot of pressure on other businessmen. This is another situation where there are more wolves and less meat. They can't compare to Tong Youwei because of their relationship. It is conceivable that the situation will be very bad later.

"Manager Han, what you said is wrong. If the grandfather wants to vigorously develop the industrial and commercial industry, he needs capital investment. I am deeply gracious to the grandfather of the country, and there is still little money in my family. How can I hide at home at this time? Support the decree of the grandfather of the country."

What Cui Mingchong said was righteous and dignified, but no one else would believe a word of it.

"Manager Cui, keep your little money. You don't need to worry about the matter of the grandfather. With so many of us here, it is enough to share the worries for the grandfather."

Another big businessman surnamed Pang replied bluntly.

Pang Yuanming is the top three wealthiest in Nanjing, but he can be arrogant in front of Cui Mingchong.

Cui Mingchong is also lazy to argue with him, anyway, it will be more skillful later.

"Manager Li, how many silver taels have you prepared to compete this time?"

"Not much, not much, only 300,000 taels, what about Brother Yu?"

"I can't compare to Shopkeeper Li, I only prepared 200,000 taels."

The two laughed and exchanged a few words, but when they turned their faces, they sneered in their hearts. Neither of them would be foolish enough to believe what they said to each other just now.

If you know your opponent's cards, you can take the lead when bidding.

For example, if your opponent only has 300,000 taels, then you promise to invest 350,000 yuan when bidding, then the probability of winning the bid will be greatly increased.

If you don't know your opponent's hole cards, you're in trouble. If you quote 350,000, you will worry that it will not be enough, and if you quote too much, you will be afraid of waste or lack of financial resources.

Everyone's money is not blown by the wind, and it is naturally the best to be able to bid successfully with the least amount of money.

But if you don't know your opponent's cards and you really want to win the bid, you can only bid as high as possible.

There are many businessmen like Shopkeeper Li and Shopkeeper Yu who are testing other people's voices. However, everyone's IQ is not much different. It is actually very difficult to get the other party's trump card.

However, powerful businessmen like Tong Youwei, Sun Daoming, and Pang Yuanming simply disdain to do so.

Anyway, those monopoly businesses, as long as they get on the right track, will be able to make money back sooner or later.

In short, because of Tong Youwei's success, businessmen in the southern Zhili area now have great trust in Wu Changqing.

Those in power who will always try to help businessmen make money, this is the first time they have met.

After waiting for a while, Wu Changqing came to the hall and brought some new things that no one had seen before.

"Everyone, I'm busy, so I won't talk about all kinds of polite nonsense. This tender has only one purpose, that is to make a fortune together. I will provide the technology, everyone will provide the money, and everyone will share the money."

Wu Changqing said straight to the point.

Then, he took out the first thing, a box of matches.

Wu Changqing demonstrated the use of matches in front of everyone.

Seeing that the small wooden stick was gently stroked on the sandpaper and the flames erupted, everyone's eyes widened, and they were speechless in surprise.

This way of making fire is really too convenient, it is incredible. In the future, people will save a lot of effort.

Wu Changqing continued to introduce: "This kind of thing is called a match, and it is made of a small wooden stick impregnated with a certain proportion of sulfur, white phosphorus, etc., and it only needs to be scratched on the specially made sand surface to burn.

I don't need to say more about the role of this kind of thing, everyone should think about it. And the cost of this match, after mass production, is almost 20 per cent. The price I ask for is 10 per cent, which means that the profit of ten matches is 10 per cent.

arts.

Also, this sale price is limited to my jurisdiction. As for what you sell to the north, south or abroad, whether you sell for one penny or one hundred penny, it all depends on your ability.

My only request is to supply our army first, and the rest after supplying our army is at your discretion. If you have an idea, you can think about it first, and then bid later. "

Compared with the fire inch stick, this kind of match uses only ordinary wooden sticks, and the raw materials are much cheaper. In addition to mass production, the cost is more than 50 times lower than the fire inch stick.

However, because Wu Changqing wanted to benefit the common people, he limited the price, so the profit of this thing is not high, only ten pieces of profit are made of one penny, and half of them have to be distributed to Wu Changqing.

If you want to make money, it mainly depends on whether this thing is sold well in the north or the south, or even abroad. Only when you sell it in those places can you make a lot of money.

All in all, it's a good business, but it's still a lot worse than perfumed soaps, mainly because it's for the poor.

These days, it is too difficult to make money from the poor, so we still have to make money from the rich, especially the wealth of the wealthy family members.

If it wasn't for fear of damaging his reputation, Wu Changqing would have wanted to get the sanitary napkins and underwear out directly, but if he really got these things out, others wouldn't know what to think of him.

Therefore, for the sake of fame, Wu Changqing would rather suffer those women than dare to come up with this kind of invention, and can only wait for other women's friends to emerge.
