Zhu Yijun nodded. He was satisfied with Wu Qingbo's arrangement.
The two of them talked about some business. Zhu Yijun mainly talked about the distribution channels. As someone from the future, he certainly knew the importance of distribution channels.
In this era, there was no online shopping, and there were no online distribution channels. They could only do offline distribution channels.
In Zhu Yijun's words, it was to open up the national distribution channels as soon as possible and cooperate with more local businessmen.
In this era, it was basically impossible for an outsider to set up his own direct distribution channels.
The collusion between the government and businessmen and the protection of the local government was definitely not a joke. If they didn't want you to enter, then you couldn't enter.
For Zhu Yijun, a nationwide distribution network was definitely not as simple as economic benefits.
Although the economic benefits were boundless, the person who controlled the distribution channels was the person who controlled the lifeline.
Which big enterprise in the future didn't have a perfect distribution channel? Hollywood movie studios all had their own distribution channels.
Without distribution channels and sales channels, you can only be controlled by others, and you can't even speak with confidence.
In the future, real estate companies, such as Wanda, entered the film and television industry first by building a cinema chain. With a cinema chain, they could do distribution, and then production.
No one dared to oppose them. They controlled the cinema chain and distribution channels. You could try to oppose them.
When Zhu Yijun controlled the distribution channels in the country, it was time for this distribution channel to show its power. No one could stop his footsteps.
Coupled with the administrative orders, it was definitely a crushing advantage.
The collusion between the government and businessmen was indeed invincible, but in the face of the collusion of the royal businessmen, they were just a joke. In the future, state-owned enterprises …
Wu Qingbo listened in a daze. Of course, he was very serious. He now regarded the emperor's nephew's words as an oracle.
This was what his past experience told him. Ever since he listened to his nephew, the emperor, he had made a lot of money.
This was not only about money, but also about the promotion of status.
What was the Li family in the past?
Just relying on the Empress Dowager's relatives, although many people respected him in front of him, they didn't necessarily talk about him behind his back.
Honours and relatives of the royal family, how many of them would like him?
They were the Honours for generations, the royal family for generations. What was the Li family?
In terms of title, it was just a count. Daming, how many queens and counts like him had been there for so many years?
The key was to turn the Li family into real Honours.
Ever since he started doing business with his nephew, the emperor, Wu Qingbo seemed to have found this path.
In this day and age, the more one had money, the more unyielding they would be. Wasn't there a saying that money could move the gods?
After sending off Wu Qingbo, Zhu Yijun went to look for Zhang Jing. This Dongchang Factory Manager had been in Dongchang for the past few days. He had just come back a few days ago. He did not even rest during the Lunar New Year and had been dealing with the issues in Dongchang.
Of course, Zhang Jing knew how important the emperor was to Dongchang. This was a chance for him to show off.
Now, Zhang Jing was full of confidence and hoped to go further. Zhang Hong was getting old. When Zhang Hong passed away, it would be time for him to take over the position of the eunuch in charge of the Rites Department.
In this world, there was no official who didn't want to be the Cabinet Secretary. Similarly, there was no eunuch who didn't want to be the eunuch in charge of the Rites Department.
"This old servant pays respect to the Emperor!" After Zhang Jing came in, he first gave a big bow. He was very formal and very serious.
Zhu Yijun smiled. With Zhang Jing, he had built up the prestige of the emperor.
Looking at Zhang Jing, Zhu Yijun smiled and said, "Alright, get up!
How's the thing I asked you to do? "
"Replying to the Imperial Majesty, it's done. I've already contacted the people." Zhang Jing quickly nodded.
What Zhu Yijun asked Zhang Jing to do was to arrange spies in Wu Qingbo's side. The little eunuchs that he sent out were not needed. Some of them were San Dezi's men, and some were Zhang Jing's men. From the beginning, Zhu Yijun had mixed in the sand.
Zhu Yijun didn't arrange people in Wu Qingbo's side. If something went wrong, or if Wu Qingbo had some selfish motives, Zhu Yijun would be in trouble.
Although Wu Qingbo wouldn't have any selfish motives, Zhu Yijun was very clear about his grandfather's character.
Short-sighted and greedy, such a person must have a lot of small thoughts. It didn't matter if it didn't affect the overall situation. Zhu Yijun didn't even care about embezzling a little money, but if there were other thoughts, then it wouldn't work.
In addition, Zhu Yijun cared about confidentiality the most. Putting in a group of spies in Dongchang was also conducive to mastering the situation of the entire channel.
"I have a few things for you to do!"
Zhu Yijun thought about it and said to Zhang Jing, "The first thing is to find a person for me. This person is called Xu Guangqi. He should be in Huating of Song Jiang Prefecture now. There is a Longhua Temple there. He is about a teenager this year."
Zhu Yijun remembered Xu Guangqi's things very clearly. He paid attention to this person in his previous life.
In other words, anyone who was interested in the history of the late Ming Dynasty couldn't avoid Xu Guangqi.
Originally, Zhu Yijun couldn't remember it. The key was that there was a place named after Xu Guangqi in the future, which was the famous Xujiahui.
Zhang Jing was a little surprised. How did the Imperial Majesty know about this?
However, Zhang Jing didn't dare to ask. He quickly said, "Imperial Majesty, rest assured. Old Slave will definitely find this person."
Zhang Jing was determined in his heart. In any case, he must find this person.
This was one of the few things that the Imperial Majesty told him. If he didn't do it well, the Imperial Majesty would definitely be disappointed. What Zhang Jing was afraid of now was Zhu Yijun's disappointment in him.
Zhu Yijun nodded. Maybe Xu Guangqi would be lost in the crowd because of his change, but Zhu Yijun couldn't wait.
One had to know that Xu Guangqi's road to the imperial examinations was not smooth. If he waited until he became a talent and entered the capital, how long would that take?
Zhu Yijun didn't want to wait. Moreover, Zhu Yijun believed that Xu Guangqi was at his best when he was in his teens.
If he started training him from a young age, he would definitely be able to train a generation of scientists. This was the person that he had chosen to be the head of the Daming Royal Academy of Sciences.
"Find a hundred children in their teens. They must be smart, have read books, and know some words."
Zhu Yijun thought for a moment and continued, "But you must keep a low profile. Don't alarm others. Also, don't threaten or bribe them. Orphans are best.
Of course, don't create orphans. If I find out that you have done that, I will take your head. "
Zhu Yijun didn't trust Zhang Jing's character at all. Or rather, he didn't trust the character of a eunuch.
