I was a fan in ancient times [Transmigration Book]

Chapter 495

Han Yi said it concisely, but everyone present was at a loss. These words can understand what they mean separately, but together...

As a businessman, Bai Shao had a vague understanding of these four words, but he didn't understand them thoroughly, so he could only say: "If you have any ideas, just say it."

Han Yi smiled and said, "Actually, it's quite simple. Contracting means contracting out the palace and letting others build it."

After he finished speaking, Xiong Wan and Han Yan, who were once kings, said in unison: "How can this be done?"

Han Yi raised his eyebrows: "Why not?"

Han Yan was still organizing his speech there, Xiong Wan had already said straightforwardly: "Who do you want to build? The palace is not a joke, in case someone secretly attack..."

He was interrupted by Han Yi before he finished speaking: "It's the palace, pay attention to it later, if you say something wrong again, I won't be able to help you."

Xiong Wan choked, and Han Yan next to him also gave him a blank look, and said to Han Yi very gently: "The imperial palace is nothing more than the others, it is the fate of the country, what should I do if something goes wrong?"

Han Yi originally thought they were talking about quality issues, and wanted to say who would be so courageous to cut corners for the palace, wouldn't he be afraid of being punished by the nine clans?

After Han Yan finished explaining, he realized that what the two co-authors were talking about was related to Feng Shui.

Han Yi smiled and said, "Don't worry, the overall design will not be handed over to others, it's just recruited to build it."

"No one has the ability to build such a big palace." Han Yan smiled wryly.

Except for Han Yi, he is the only one who knows the size of the new palace.

Daqin's current palace is big enough, but the new one is at least twice as big as this one.

Han Yi said, "So it's subcontracting."

Bai Shao had been listening at the side just now, and now he heard the subcontracting and couldn't help but feel moved. The whole palace cannot be built, but if it is separated...it may not be impossible.

Xiong Wan and Han Yan still felt that Han Yi was a little whimsical. Even if it was sub-contracting, few people were capable of following up.

The two of them were still persuading, but Bai Shao said: "The two of you have been in high positions for a long time. I don't know how big the family business of the world is today. Ah Yi can be regarded as a type with a lot of money, and there are no people in the world who can stand shoulder to shoulder with him. Dozens."

Xiong Wan and Han Yan were taken aback for a moment, and they were very surprised.

Han Yan obviously didn't believe it: "How could it be? Ah Yi has salt and sugar in his hands..."

Han Yi coughed lightly and said, "The salt is now owned by the imperial court."

Han Yan paused: "There is still sugar."

Bai Shao said: "Those businessmen may not have such promising projects as Ah Yi, but they are willing to endure hardships and sell long distances, especially the vast land of Daqin, and they can buy good prices for things after traveling a hundred or two hundred miles, not to mention those who have Some people would even go to the land of Baiyue to do business, if not for the strict laws of Qin, their food and clothing would probably be better than ours."

Han Yi was not surprised by this result at all. He was able to make money because he had an exclusive product in his hands, and no one else except him, so he made money from a monopoly.

If there is no such thing that can be monopolized, he will not dare to do business lightly, for fear that he will lose everything.

Xiong Wan and Han Yan obviously did not expect such a businessman to exist.

If it is such a wealthy businessman, then he can barely build the palace.

Bai Shao asked very interestedly at this time: "Then how to contract?"

Han Yi said, "Bidding."

At this moment, Bai Shao understood the meaning of the bidding, so he urged: "Be clear."

Han Yi explained: "The so-called bidding is to gather all the merchants who are qualified to build the palace and recruit them by means of secret bids."

"Concealed bids, that is to say, they don't know anything about each other, and you are the only one to choose?" Bai Shao was thoughtful, there is a lot of room for maneuverability.

Han Yi nodded: "That's right, if it's obvious, it's an auction."

Xiong Wan on the side didn't understand: "Then what are the conditions of your bidding?"

Han Yi said: "Then from three aspects, the first is the construction materials, the second is the promised completion date, if there is delay, the fine will be doubled, and the most important point is to see who pays more money."

The other three said in unison: "Give me money?"

Han Yi nodded: "Yes, otherwise I would give them the project for nothing? Why would I let them build the palace if I don't give money?"

Bai Shao was a little uncertain and said, "Does this money refer to their construction funds?"

Han Yi waved his hand: "No, they need to pay for the construction funds. This is another money, which is equivalent to buying the construction qualification from me, understand?"

This time everyone understood, so Xiong Wan started to taunt and said: "You are so whimsical, let others spend money to build you a house, and you want people to pay for your qualifications, and they have to bear the risk of losing money in the end. Be careful, do you think I'm stupid?"

Han Yi sneered: "I can't even figure it out, so you can only be a poor ghost on a salary all your life."

Bai Shao said from the side: "The imperial palace is not an ordinary house, if it is built over the imperial palace, it will become a gold-lettered signboard in the future."

Han Yan thought the same as Xiong Wan at first, it's not that they really don't have enough brains, it's just that they don't plan for their own affairs when they are not in their positions, the two of them never worried about money since they were young.

Han Yan was not favored, but Han Wang did not starve him. Later, when he became a monarch, he worried about the lack of money in the treasury, but that was another level.

At this time, he and Xiong Wan immediately understood what Bai Shao said, and Xiong Wan immediately said: "Although you say that, you must be careful of someone impersonating you."

Yes, what if he is a businessman in the future and says that he has participated in the construction of the palace?

Only then did Han Yi say: "Of course I want to come here. The direct registration in the bidding will be included in the file. It will be a bonus item for any national projects in the future. Not only that, those who participate in the construction of the palace can directly join Royal Merchants Alliance!"

"Imperial Merchant Alliance?" Bai Shao's eyes lit up immediately, and he was keenly aware of the room for manipulation.

Han Yi nodded and said: "That's right, the Royal Merchants Alliance. In the future, this alliance will not only build palaces for the royal family, but also supply items to the royal family. Of course, this will also be a bidding in the future, and then there will be qualification audits every year. If the audit If it doesn't pass, it will be dismissed!"

After Han Yi finished speaking, he suddenly remembered another point and added: "Well, not only is the aptitude not allowed, but if the businessman breaks the law and discipline, he will also be fired for bullying men and women."

Bai Shao originally thought that Han Yi was going to discuss with them how to operate the Imperial Merchant Alliance, but unexpectedly, Han Yi had already finished the general framework, so... what are they here for?

Xiong Wan was also a little puzzled: "You can tell Bai Xiaolang about these things, why did you come to us?"

Han Yi rolled his eyes: "Of course I'm looking for a promising project for you guys. The Royal Merchants Alliance must be watched by someone, right? Could it be possible for me to meet those businessmen in person?"

This time, without waiting for the other two to speak, Han Yan, who had been relatively silent, said decisively: "They don't have the qualifications to see you, I'll go!"

Han Yi smiled: "That's it, you three, brother is good at general affairs, Xiaobai knows merchants very well, as for Qingxianghou..."

Xiong Wan raised his eyebrows, and then saw Han Yi said with great disgust: "There is only one age left to help the town, and by the way, I will find something for you to do, so that your little man will not grow up with you." You learned to be idle."

Xiong Wan:? ? ? ? ? ?

When he was rolling up his sleeves, he suddenly heard Mrs. Qing Xianghou angrily say: "What are you doing!"

Xiong Wan immediately put down his sleeves, turned his head and said with a smile, "I'm joking with the emperor."

However, Han Yi directly dismantled the stage: "Madam, he is dissatisfied with me, and he is going to do it directly."

Mrs. Qingxianghou handed her son over to Mrs. Han Yan, and came over with her sleeves rolled up and said, "I think you're going back as you live!"

Xiong Wan: ...

After some laughing, Han Yi said: "This is not for nothing. Merchants in the Royal Merchants Alliance have to pay maintenance fees every year. This fee is basically used to hold an annual networking event. , the rest is yours, you know."

Han Yan smiled and said, "It doesn't matter if you don't take the money."

Even if the maintenance fee is not paid, people will inevitably give them gifts at that time, so there is no need to worry about money.

Bai Shao hesitated: "At present, the Imperial Merchant Alliance is useless..."

Han Yi said: "The royal family needs a lot of items. Every year, the Royal Merchant Alliance will evaluate the qualifications of various merchants. Isn't it enough that the Imperial Merchant Alliance will recommend it?"

With this signboard, are you afraid you won’t be able to sell things?

Bai Shao nodded: "This is not bad, but the alliance can't have too many people participating, if there are too many people, it won't be expensive."

Han Yi thought for a while and said, "Let's limit each project to five."

He didn't dare to limit the total directly. After all, he didn't know how much he needed to buy from outside for his own food and clothing. If the limit was less, wouldn't it be troublesome?

Bai Shao laughed and said, "That's fine too."

Xiong Wan became more honest after being beaten up by his wife, half asking and half reminding: "Does Your Majesty know?"

Han Yi said, "It's okay, I'll just tell him later."

Xiong Wan couldn't help but reminded: "You'd better be careful."

Han Yan also persuaded: "Your Majesty is not what it used to be, and now the eyes of all the officials are on you, you'd better be careful."

Bai Shao who was on the side also rubbed his hands and said secretly: "If you do this, the Shaofu is almost empty. The Shaofu is full of people trusted by His Majesty. If they are dissatisfied with you, it may be very dangerous."

After hearing this, Han Yi felt that this was also the case, so he said: "The Shaofu still undertakes the imperial artifacts, and others can't take their jobs."

Not to mention other things, such as the uniforms of the royal family, whoever dares to do it privately will be punished by the nine clans, let alone authorization, it is impossible to let go of this authorization.

In addition, there are accessories and ceremonial guards corresponding to the title. These are all under the management of the Shaofu, but it is true that the most luscious items are gone.

This issue really had to be clarified. After Han Yi reached a consensus with Han Yan and others, he turned to Yan Zheng to talk about this issue.

Yan Zheng couldn't help being stunned for a moment after hearing this: "So...you mean, not only does the new palace cost nothing, but we can still get money?"

Han Yi nodded seriously: "But there is also a problem here, that is, merchants will definitely not be able to confiscate civilian property like the country, so it will definitely be slower to cover. I plan to divide it into one or two phases. The first phase will be more important first." After the buildings are built, the second phase is less important palace rooms, such as your harem."

Han Yi laughed when he said this, Yan Zheng will not have a harem if there are no accidents in his life, but the successor is not certain, so this still needs to be covered.

Yan Zheng also smiled and said, "It just so happens that I haven't shown you the blueprint yet, come on, let's have a look together."

Han Yi was a little surprised: "Is everything finished?"

Sure enough, the painting was finished, Yan Zheng asked someone to carry out the map, Yan Zheng didn't go to the place where the previous government was discussing politics, pointed to the two palaces in the middle and said: "This is the bedroom of me and you."

Needless to say, Yan Zheng's bedroom must be on the central axis, and Han Yi's...even if it is equal, there is a difference, but his bedroom is almost parallel to Yan Zheng's bedroom on the east side, which is a special status.

It's just that Han Yi looked at that direction and felt cheated.
