148 Intention to transform

The remaining one-third of the funds are only more than 300,000 taels of silver dollars, according to Li Tianyang's extravagant development, how can it withstand the toss.

No, when Li Tianyang was about to increase his efforts to invest in the production of the cannon foundry, the bookkeeper Erya and Sixi came to the door with an account book and opened the empty warehouse to him.

"Young master, if you continue to work like this, our business name will not be able to open the pot, and we will not be able to send it next month!" Erya pulled Sixi over with him, just to persuade Li Tianyang to be able to control himself, after all, both of them are old people cultivated by Li Tianyang, and the relationship between them is the same as that of relatives.

"Alright, alright, I got it!" Li Tianyang picked up the account book and saw that there was really not much silver left, and it seemed that if he wanted to increase investment in the cannon foundry and ironworks, he had to find a way to raise funds by himself.

After sending away the two bookkeepers who were like eldest sisters, Li Tianyang rubbed his temples and began to think about how to increase revenue and reduce expenditure.

In terms of open source, Li Tianyang thinks that he has done a good job, but on the issue of throttling, Li Tianyang has always felt that his team has not reached the point where it must be throttled.

Many things have happened, and it is Li Tianyang's lavish spending methods that have given the Bengang team the opportunity to move forward and develop rapidly: with high returns, the craftsmen and masters with unique skills will willingly contribute their unique skills and increase the team's technical background; With the generous IUD reward system, flexible and creative talents can stay in the laboratory of the R&D institute day and night to develop various novel inventions that should not appear in this era and at this time.

It is precisely these seemingly unrestrained spending methods that have enabled the Bengang team to have the current iron-making and steel-making technology, the cannon casting technology and ship-building technology mastered by Westerners, and the workers to work hard and work overtime to produce various products.

But it is precisely Li Tianyang's lavish spending that has made the Bengang team fall to the point where they have no money, and it is impossible to generalize what is right and which is wrong.

It's been a while since he came to Chicken Coop Harbor, and Li Tianyang has not made any other big moves except for rectifying the above things arranged by the people in Chicken Coop Harbor.

Originally, now Jilonggang is also on the right track, even if there are personnel changes in many important positions at this time, but there are regulations to follow, and many candidates for the positions are not promoted by the unit, or have dealt with them.

"Go and call Tan Songyun over, just say I have something to look for him." Li Tianyang shouted to the guards outside the door, and it didn't take long for Tan Songyun to walk into Li Tianyang's office.

"Admiral, do you have something to do with me?" Tan Songyun was the leader of Li Tianyang's secretary team before, and he was quite talented, but this time after Li Tianyang came to Jilong Port, because of the shortage of high-level personnel in the team, he was finally released by Li Tianyang and served as the shopkeeper of Jilong Port Qixintang.

"How's it going, how does it feel to be alone this time?" As the person sent out by his side, Li Tianyang did not immediately pull the topic into the topic, but began to care about Tan Songyun.

"......" Tan Songyun didn't say anything, but from the confident smile on his face, it can be seen that he is comfortable in this position.

"Compared to following me to come up with ideas before, now you have to make your own ideas, and the pressure on you is naturally a little greater. But you have to remember one thing, our team is not afraid of making mistakes, but I am afraid that you don't even have the courage to make mistakes, and if you make mistakes, we will learn a lesson, and we can avoid such problems next time. Li Tianyang has also worked in various positions, so he naturally knows the worries in the hearts of Tan Songyun and those who have just taken charge of themselves, and can't help but explain a few words for him: "Objective factors that are not related to manpower cause mistakes and failures, and our team will never be held accountable, even if it is a temporary mistake, a mistake or a mistake, as long as the remedy is timely, we will have our own conclusion." ”

"Understood." Tan Songyun's incident as Li Tianyang's secretary is not short, where I don't know the rules of the Bengang team, but Li Tianyang can spare a few words to comfort himself, and he is still moved in his heart.

"Okay, let's get down to business, you've been in office for a few days, and I just happen to have something I want you to give me a staff officer." After casually reassuring a few words of relief, Li Tianyang pulled the topic back and said his intention to call Tan Songyun over: "Our team is now in financial shortage, you also know, this time I am going to sell a batch of thousands of pounds of Francophone cannons that our Hongtang eliminated, how much price do you think should be marked?" ”

"Well......" This question was asked a little abruptly, which made Tan Songyun, who took over the Chicken Coop Port Qixintang, a little uncontrollable, but fortunately, the Bengang team had not shot artillery before, and there was a precedent of Franc Robot and Hongmaoyi occasionally selling firearms, Tan Songyun quickly gave a price that he thought was appropriate: "About 1,000 taels of silver, the price is too low, we might as well melt and cast steel cannons ourselves, the price is too high, and those potential customers may not be willing to pay for it." ”

"After all, the power of this thousand-pound Franc cannon is not far behind the Shenwei General Cannon and the Redcoat Cannon."

"Then how many Furlong cannons do you think we can shoot in Chicken Coop Harbor?"

Tan Songyun's estimate is a little different from the price that Li Tianyang expected, in order to be able to arm Hong Tang as soon as possible, Li Tianyang's purchase of these thousand catties of Francorang machine guns is much higher than this price. But at this time and then, since the team is short of money now, and these cannons are also used second-hand goods, it is also the right thing to sell them again to discount some silver.

"Well, my suggestion is better to go through the long run, let's take out too many firearms at one time and sell them, the market may not be able to digest it!" Tan Songyun looked at Li Tianyang in embarrassment, since he is now the person in charge of the Qixintang of Jilong Port, then he has to consider his position: "It is better for us to put five thousand catties of Fran cannons and dozens of arquebuses in the Qixintang business every month, which can not only enrich our types of goods, but also keep the market from saturating all of a sudden, and maximize the benefits." ”

Tan Songyun's consideration is not unreasonable, the maritime merchants, seafarers, and even the pirate gang who are begging for a living in the sea may not be able to ask for a firearm as a deterrent because of the channel problem, but if they really want to spend thousands of taels of real money to buy an artillery, I am afraid that they will retreat in their hearts when they fight!

Not everyone is so willing to be like Li Tianyang, who dares to spend tens of thousands, more than 100,000 taels of silver to purchase artillery in large quantities and arm his team.
