According to Li Gan's wishes, it is already a huge benefit to be able to reward dozens of taels, up to one hundred taels, and that smart man was definitely overjoyed.

In this era, scholars, farmers, industry and commerce were emphasized. The status of craftsmen was actually quite low. Even if the four major inventions were made and presented to the court, they would only be honorary and rewards such as plaques. It was difficult to get into an official position. Not to mention material rewards, at most they were meaningful.

Moreover, there is no patent protection among the people, so others can use it. Therefore, there are so many secrets of ancestral inheritance that pass on their sons but not daughters. It is even more exaggerated, just like matches, if the interests are large enough, it will lead to the powerful and powerful people from all sides to rob, which is to bring disaster to themselves.

Of course Qin Bai would not do that. He explained: "There shouldn't be more than 200 matchsticks now, right? Even if we have 200 households, we can rent this thing to them. The cost of making this thing is about two taels, plus the two taels paid to that person, each one is at most five taels. Originally, they used a knife to cut it, and they were only three or five cents a month. After using this tool, they could do it at least ten times more, so we didn't charge much of the rent for five cents a month."

"The purchase price of our match stick can be reduced to 30% of the original. With the rent, the income of each household can be increased to one or two taels. Our cost can also be reduced a lot, and we can make a lot of more money. And I will pay all this money, open a rental shop, only rent it but not sell it. Yongsheng accounts for 30% of the shares, and whoever dares to intervene will interrupt his hand. Jingjiazhuang can be handed over to Tiesheng, Laizhou City can be handed over to monks, and they can arrange for more than ten brothers to start work."

Everyone felt that the more they listened, the more they became, Cao Dacai smiled and sighed: "Master, how did your brain grow?"

As a result, the smart man received generous rewards, and the people who made match sticks also increased their income. The match workshop also saved a lot of money. Now the match sticks cost nearly 2,000 taels per month. Except for a small part of the outsourcing, most of them are done by themselves, which consumes a lot of manpower and money. It is one of the biggest costs. But now it has become a 30% purchase price, and it can be outsourcing all of them. The money saved every month can be more than 1,000 taels per month. Not to mention that at least hundreds of labor freed. The purchase of the 200 tools is only 1,000 taels.

Also, we arranged for the people from Tie Sheng and Monk to start work. It was completely beneficial to all parties and everyone was happy. Even Qin Bai himself got the benefits. The rental shop could be smooth and profitable for dozens of taels a month.

"Hey, Bai Er." Wu Lisong thought of another question, "There are too many matchsticks, can we sell them? Also, there are so many people who have no work to do, how should we arrange it?"

Qin Bai smiled and said, "I'm worried about what we sell. And we only had these 200 households at the beginning, and each household was limited to rent one. How many people could we do? If there are too many demands in the future, we can let go slowly, but if we can't sell them, there are only these 200 households. As for the extra staff, Lao Wu, aren't you short of staff here? Even if there are many elderly, weak, sick and disabled, you can still make boxes and boxes. Oh, didn't you just say that there are dozens of people who are not very at ease? Taking this opportunity to give them to monks for use!"

It has been nearly two months since I left the mountain gate. Some of the thugs who joined have begun to be unable to withstand loneliness and are uneasy to work and train here. And those thorns are hard to control. They are brave and competitive, and they are all very appealing. They are a relatively ambitious group of people, all hoping to make a comeback as soon as possible.

The only disadvantage of these people is that they are not disciplined, but Yongsheng is the most concerned about discipline. If we deal with it, those people will definitely be convinced orally but if we don’t deal with it, it’s another rat shit that ruins the soup. So this time, they simply packed it and sent it all to the monk.

However, no one expected that this unintentional action would completely ignite the fuse of the war...

...

At the beginning of the night light, Tao Qiulun was wailing with his left arm at the entrance of Baihua Tower. His left hand had been cut off, and there were three or four followers lying in a pool of blood.

On the wall of Nancheng, several figures slid down the rope. They were soon led to the monk, and the monk asked, "Have you killed that old guy?"

The leading man looked a little regretful: "Brother Monk, that old guy is very quick, so he cut off one hand!"

The monk sighed and thought for a while: "Forget it, that's it. You go to Jingjiazhuang first to avoid it. Although the matter is not done neatly, at least Brother Bai has an explanation."

Since the last assassination, there have been various rumors outside. One of them made the monk frightened, saying that the master behind the scenes was actually the monk. After killing Dayan, Heizi and others, they will be in the territory of Laizhou City in the future, and they will be the monk's family. There are even more exaggerated ones, saying that the monk has already had a heart and wants to kill Qin Bai himself.

After hearing this rumor, the monk suddenly broke out in cold sweat. It was impossible to explain at all. Judging from the biggest beneficiary after the incident, it was really the monk himself. Therefore, the monk always wanted to find an opportunity to go to Jingjiazhuang and wanted to explain it clearly to Qin Bai in person. However, at this moment, Qin Bai suddenly sent dozens of people.

The monk didn't know at all that Qin Bai didn't care about such rumors at all. These dozens of people were just sending them over to get rid of these thorns.

The monk would definitely think about Qin Bai's intentions, especially when he found that these people were all brave and competitive, and most of them were good at it. Therefore, the more he thought about it, the more he became, the more he thought it was Qin Bai's silent warning to him, and he had doubts about him.

To eliminate suspicion, the only way to vote for the title is to be voted. So the monk decided to send someone to assassinate Tao Qiulun and thoroughly understand his thoughts. In addition, many of the newcomers were eager to make a name for themselves, and they were eager to try and rush to make a name for themselves, so they planned this action in the end.

However, this action completely ignited all contradictions. Early the next morning, Tao Qiulun gathered all his men to take revenge, and the monk was also ready to fight. However, the upcoming fire immediately scared the entire city of Laizhou. The government immediately stepped forward to control the situation.
