Then he put up a note and presented more than a hundred pieces on it. Each one was not listed randomly, but the facts were not something that Li Laoxian could not refute here.

Liu Mengyan would offend Li Tingzhi if he did this, and he was not afraid. Anyway, this strange-tempered old fairy never gave Sai Song Jiang Liu Mengyan a good face.

"Why do you have to set up a separate yamen? The court now has to spend every copper coin on the blade, and it cannot be done by his temperament!" Chen Yizhong, a white-faced old man, also stood up to make trouble.

"Li Jianzheng's achievements in governing the Lianghuai River are obvious to all, and it is unfair to stay in Shangshu!" Wen Tianxiang was going to get more entangled on this issue.

Liu Mengyan was still a little afraid of this Li Laoxian who didn't care about any consequences when doing things. Although he was not afraid of offending, there was no need to offend him to death. It was still very troublesome to be stuck by him.

In addition, the appointment of Song Chen this time was intended by the Empress Dowager Xie Daoqing, and Wen Tianxiang deliberately talked about the commander of the two Huaihei, hoping to completely oppose the two.

Liu Mengyan's sect finally shut up, but how could Song Chen be so satisfied? He could find another way to dig a hole for him in other aspects.

Since Song Chen wanted to build a yamen alone, this year, the funds for the coastal establishment department were reduced from 30,000 guan to 10,000 guan. As for the funds for the construction of the yamen, I asked Li Laoxian to go.

When Song Chen heard the news, he shouted that he had failed.

The backer is really a scholarly spirit. It’s enough not to increase the funds, but it’s still reduced. Anyway, with the support of the Empress Dowager, there should be no concessions.

This made him offend Li Laoxian. From the perspective of Laoxian, someone suddenly wanted to be his "first mate". For this reason, he was also frightened and reduced his coastal control department by 20,000 yuan. The clay Bodhisattva was still a little angry, let alone Li Laoxian.

After uncovering this layer, the backer shouted that he had been fooled. He thought he had won, but he did not expect that he buried a nail for his disciples. He blamed himself.

Song Chen quickly said that he had a solution to these problems.

He also felt that he had a silence and should not let the backer who was thinking about him everywhere feel guilty. He even said that Song Chen had no other skills, but he was very capable of making money. He could earn it himself without funds.

Within a few days, the appointment documents of the Ministry of Personnel were sent.

Song Chen has not been idle these days and has made the matches out.

I asked Zheng Sixiao and Lu Zonggui to design matchboxes, Zhu Xueba to develop matches, and Xie Guoming to control costs.

The diphosphate trisulfide used by matches is both safe and non-toxic. As a time traveler, it can be fully realized in one step without more than a hundred years of evolution.

Although matches were basically eliminated in the 21st century, they are now of epoch-making significance. This is a revolution in the way of ignition.

In ancient times, ignition was a very troublesome thing. Either you hit the flint with iron blocks and get angry, and it often takes a lot of hits to succeed; or you use a fire fold, which is relatively easy, but it is expensive.

Now Song Chen has made sixty matches in a box, only three copper plates, which are easy to use and worry-free, and are more economical than the previous ignition method.

Song Chen made a machine to make matchsticks, which could achieve semi-mechanized mass production and coordinate in a central manner, which really took a lot of effort.

But he didn't take any of it, and of course he knew how big a piece of cake he had given up.

These are all promises made to the soldiers who fought bloody battles in Xiangfan. A part of the pension for the soldiers and their families is paid in the form of shares in the match factory, and they are the major shareholders.

From now on, they can enjoy dividends from the Match Factory every year, and the remaining part can be used to pay the families of dead soldiers and assist disabled soldiers.

The match was named "Beautiful Brand" match, and it was packaged in a small moisture-proof and sun-proof paper case. It was lit with a stroke on the friction surface covered with red scales.

These preferential personnel have no objection to Song Chen's "forced shareholding".

Who would have any objection? Their extra pension was five times that of the court, just because they followed the right person.

Of course, most of the pensions in Song Chen are paid in cash.

This match factory adopts a real shareholding system and is named "Da Song Junsao Co., Ltd.". Unlike "East India", the real ownership certificate of issuing shares adopts a dual track system for registered and bearer.

He always had a price for one share, and there were more than 2,000 bosses and 10,000 jin of start-up funds. Of course, all of this money was paid by Song Chen, with only 50% of the public shareholders, and there was also a major shareholder, the deputy director of the Quanzhou Coastal System.

Song Chen's "noble" operation actually has his own calculations. With this sign, he can give his blood to his yamen openly without worrying about other people's suspicion.

The match factory has been in operation, with a daily output of 100,000 boxes, and the output can be increased according to sales.

I didn’t use any fancy marketing methods, I just demonstrated it on various streets of Lin'an, and ordered the matches until after the New Year.

This match factory also solved the employment problems of the families of these soldiers. They all have a place to join the factory and can work as matchmakers in the company. They are four trump cards a month, which is higher than their sergeants, and there will be no deductions. The food is much better than theirs.

Of course, these soldiers from Xiangfan still chose to follow Song Chen. This kind of income cannot be measured by money. Besides, as long as Song Chen's standards are met, the reward will not be less.

A few days later, Song Chen went to see Xie Guoming again and talked to him about financial operations. He had high hopes for Xie Guoming.

From the conversation, Xie Guoming was still worried. In this year, he had not even seen any other stocks, bank bonds except for managing the construction of Linjia Road.

He expressed his dissatisfaction in obscurely, and managed the construction of roads, which he could do now any subordinate.

Song Chen told Lao Xie, don’t worry, this time he was going to Quanzhou, he was going to build a bank with him. The rest should be based on the original plan, and the multi-road show first spread the concept of "credit" into everyone's mind.

Then there was Zhu Xueba. Song Chen gave him the elementary mathematics he had taken to spare in the past few months as a gift, which moved the Xueba so much that he was so moved.

You should know that he still has medium and advanced mathematics. Although he doesn’t know much about it, fortunately, his memory has expanded n times after traveling through time. He can copy it word by word and let him think about it by himself.

Now his gunpowder factory is able to be self-sufficient, and he has even paid back the 5,000 guan owed to the Linjia Road project department. This was something he dared not think about before.

Because of the four words "military-civilian integration", some gunpowder is now being sold to foreign countries. Of course, under strict monitoring, it is sold to several reliable coal mine owners. Yes, there are also coal bosses in the Song Dynasty.
