Chapter 2427: A shock that affects the world, no business, no life, no road

For example, a bullet, from raw material mining to processing and production, storage and transportation.

Do you know how much it costs when it shoots at the enemy?

However, when facing the enemy, thousands of bullets have to be fired every minute and every second.

What's more, it involves the needs of the army, but it's not just bullet grenades.

Not to mention anything else, even a war horse would have to exchange it from Xixia with a steel arm crossbow, and then take it to the cavalry training base on Danluo Island, and only conduct combat training for at least one and a half years.

Only in this way can war horses learn combat commands and adapt to the extreme environment on the battlefield.

During this period, the transportation costs, the people who raise and train the staff eat horses and those who die due to injuries are shocking when talking about the cost.

But when such a war horse arrives on the battlefield.

Often, they die if they are shot by an arrow.

Moreover, in order to ensure mobility, every Tongzhou soldier needs at least three such good horses! Together these pieces, Shen Mo needs to be extremely wealthy to an unimaginable extent.

The first step Shen Mo has to do now is to revitalize all the economic strength in the entire Song Dynasty and let them operate with full load for the war.

Therefore, he needed to do his best to make the economy active in the territory of the Song Dynasty.

...At this time, all the unrelated people had left the venue, and only Shen Mo, Yang Yanbin, and his three old Taishan were left in the room.

Plus the three beauties walking out of the lounge.

At this moment, these people listened to the passage that Shen Mo slowly said, and then they realized that the Taishan Trading Company was established, and they still held such great hope of the commander.

At this time, the old hero Mo Datong naturally asked if he didn't understand.

He asked Shen Mo with a smile: "Since that's the case, you want to strengthen the economy of the Song Dynasty, why should you start with a transportation-type trading company?

When Shen Mo heard Mo Datong's question, before he could answer, he suddenly remembered a motto from later philosophers: If you want to be rich, build roads first! Haha, although this is a joke, the truth is always correct.

The reason why Shen Mo opened this Taishan Operating Company was actually to solve the problem of circulation channels.

This is basically a necessary condition for revitalizing the economy.

Even an ordinary middle school student in later generations knew that in order to rejuvenate the economy of a place, it is essential to solve the transportation problem first.

Because no matter what industry it is, no road connection is a serious constraint on the economy.

...In Shen Mo's previous life, there was often such a thing, that a certain place produces a lot of products, such as persimmons.

However, because the road is not smooth, a large number of persimmons are difficult to transport.

This causes local products to fail to be converted into benefits.

Usually, if a road is built in such a place, a large number of growers can be immediately enriched.

You should know that this is still under the conditions of the road in later generations.

This situation became more and more serious in the Southern Song Dynasty.

For the Song Dynasty, specialties from all over the country could not be circulated and launched, and products from other places could not be sold.

Such a situation will cause the countryside slightly far away from the city to be actually extremely closed.

...Shen Mo thought about it and said to Mo Datong: "Let's give an example, for example, there is a farmer with four jujube trees in his yard, and he can pick 400 kilograms of dates every year."

"Date like this can be sold for three cents per pound in Lin'an.

But if this person wants to exchange his dates for money.

He was going to have two people to carry the dates on a shoulder pole, and he would ask the boatman to spend money on his way."

“He still has to deal with his own food and accommodation on the road.

Then after transporting it to Lin'an, you have to find a sales outlet by yourself when you get ashore."

"Of course, if he encounters exploitation from tax collectors during this period, he may lose all his money.

When he returns, he may encounter bandits and rob the money for selling dates."

“Or he got a stomach up while eating and couldn’t afford to get sick in a foreign land.

He will also be blackmailed by those cunning ship bosses.

It’s obvious that he can do something that can be done with two money, he may have to spend ten.”

"So after all, the owner of these dates felt that it would be better to give the dates to relatives and friends to eat. It would be impossible to take such a big risk, and maybe you have to pay for it."

… “But after our trading company is built, the date buyers will come to this place and buy the dates of each of their households into their own hands.

After that, he can use our trading company's logistics ship to transport the goods directly to Lin'an safely and quickly."

"Then this businessman who specializes in jujubes can find a shop in Lin'an and sell it.

During this period, the bulk taxes he paid can be taken from the tax customs, and the tax amount is absolutely reasonable."

"Thus, a result was produced."

"This person with jujube trees gets the payment for selling dates. Even if it costs pounds, he can get 400 cents. This is a considerable income for farmers."

"The merchant who bought the dates can also get the profits obtained from the transfer.

After that, Lin'an's fruit shop made another profit, and in the end, the people of Lin'an also ate delicious and sweet dates... and our logistics business also got a profit from shipping fees!"

"After the man with the jujube tree has four hundred cents in his hand, of course he has to pull up a few feet of cloth to make a piece of clothing for his daughter and buy a small piece of jewelry for his wife... As a result, he stimulated local consumption and caused foreign merchants to continue to flock to his hometown."

"This is the huge impact of the construction of a logistics line on the local economy!"

...When Shen Mo said this, he knew it in his heart.

In such an era, the so-called road construction is actually the act of the state and the government, and Shen Mo could not have built the entire Song Dynasty road.

He does not have such strength now, even the Huainan East Road is difficult for Shen Mo to do.

However, the developed water transportation in the Jiangnan region can allow Shen Mo to easily achieve the whole world!... After hearing Shen Mo's explanation, Chongfuhou and others looked at me and I looked at you, and everyone was secretly shocked.

According to Shen Mo, after his logistics trading company used Jiangnan Water Network to form this network of goods flow, they could first solve the safety issues of material circulation for customers.

In the process of freight, there are naturally armed escort personnel from trading companies to solve the problem.

The cargo loss caused by the rocket sinking can also be avoided by commodity insurance.

At this time, Chongfuhou and the others didn't know, but Shen Mo knew very well.
