    "Uh~, didn't you ask His Majesty for this matter? Liu Lang, you didn't know about it?" Cheng Huailiang asked with a surprised look on his face.

    "What did I ask my father for? What's going on?" Li Min was confused by his attitude, as if he should know.

    "Isn't it the imperial list that you requested from His Majesty this morning? These people came here after seeing the imperial list." Cheng Huailiang saw that Li Min really didn't know, so he answered.

    "Imperial list? What emperor list? I have never asked my father for help!" Li Min became even more confused after hearing this.

    "Liu Lang, it's the investment list you posted this morning, and then His Majesty had people post it all over the city in the name of the imperial list. Now the entire Chang'an City already knows about the Cement Association." Li Jingye saw that Cheng Huailiang was confused.  I didn't understand, so I couldn't help but start talking.

    "Yes, I was having lunch today when someone came to report that you were going to establish a cement association. When I received your letter, I was still confused. I didn't understand what you were talking about about cement.  Now I finally understand the market prospects. It turns out that Liulang wants to get everyone together to make a fortune!" Qin Huaiyu, who has always been steady, also said excitedly.

    It finally dawned on Li Min that his father, the emperor, probably wanted to help him, so he sent out the investment invitation list in the form of an imperial list.  The emperor's list is not comparable to that of his small supervisory institute. It is like the difference between a notice issued by a county in later generations and a red-headed document issued by the Central and State Council. Moreover, the credibility of the Tang government is much stronger than that of later governments.  , especially the imperial power as the core of government power, is even more popular, and absolutely no one doubts the authenticity of the contents of the imperial list.  Therefore, as soon as the imperial list representing imperial power came out, it immediately attracted the attention of countless merchants.  As for Cheng Huailiang's insistence that it was Li Min who asked Li Shimin to issue the imperial list, it is not difficult to understand. After all, no one would have thought that Li Shimin would directly use the imperial list to invite investment without notifying Li Min.

    After Li Min's publicity for road construction in the east and west cities, cement has become very familiar to the people of Chang'an. Anyone with a bit of business acumen can see how many business opportunities there are in cement, let alone those who think about it every day.  A businessman wondering how to make money.  So as soon as the imperial list came out, those powerful businessmen were like sharks smelling blood. They flocked to Li Min's humble cement manufacturing institute. This caused what Li Min saw just now.  A crazy scene.

    After working on it for a long time, it turned out that this was what happened. Li Min couldn't help but smile bitterly in his heart. He, the emperor, really did bad things with good intentions. So many people came all of a sudden. There were less than twenty people in his small supervising institute.  Even if I'm exhausted, I can't keep busy.

    "Liu Lang, you'd better finish our matters quickly, the family is still waiting." Li Yong is impatient and has no patience for anything. Judging from his appearance, it is probably Li Xiaogong who asked him to come.  The others were embarrassed to say it, but their eager eyes betrayed their eagerness.

    "Everything is easy for you. Isn't it just a matter of signing a contract? The concern is that after signing the contract, you still have to queue up. This is the key!" Li Min said nonchalantly.

    "Number? What number?" Cheng Huailiang asked with a puzzled look on his face, "Can't we just get the cement production technology after signing the contract and then arrange for people to produce it?"

    "Tch~, what you think is simple. If everyone produces like this, then it will be much easier for my supervisory institute." Li Min found that he really had no way to deal with the situation in the front office, so he simply stopped thinking about it.  Businessmen don't dare to demolish the Supervisory Building. If you want to be crowded, just go ahead and squeeze it.

    Li Min then said: "Let me tell you, this cement production is both simple and complex. If we only give you the production process, you can indeed produce cement, but the quality cannot be guaranteed, so after signing  After the contract is signed, the Manufacturing Supervision Institute will send personnel to guide the construction and production of each cement factory. When the cement produced meets our requirements, we will issue a production certificate to the manufacturer. Only with the certificate can it be put on the market."

    "So complicated?" Cheng Huailiang slapped his head, and then immediately approached Li Min with a playful smile, and said flatteringly: "Liu Lang, we are all brothers, can you open a small back door for the brothers, for example, directly use that certificate  Give us something?" Although the others despised Cheng Huailiang's shamelessness, they were all on the same side, so after hearing this, they nodded repeatedly and stared at Li Min with bright eyes.

    "This" Li Min was very embarrassed. In his previous life, he hated the rule of building relationships to find a way to do things. He founded the Supervisory Academy, and he didn't want to set a bad precedent on himself. "It's not a brother."  Help everyone, but the regulations for this matter have been submitted to the father, and I am recruiting censors here, so it is really difficult to open this hole."

    "Rokuro, you don't have to be embarrassed. Everyone knows your situation, and our family has warned us not to mess with you.Trouble, even with such a big deal as your taking office, we didn¡¯t dare to disturb you. We were afraid that people with ulterior motives would catch you.  "Qin Huailiang said understandingly. Although everyone present was young, they all had one or a few old political foxes in their families. Under their influence, how could they not understand Li Min's situation? So everyone nodded to express their understanding.

    "But I can arrange your number in the front. I still have this power. If I send a few more capable craftsmen, I will definitely satisfy all brothers!" Li Min then changed the subject and smiled.  everyone said.

    "Oh? That's great. Rokuro is a brother!" Everyone was overjoyed and praised loudly.  Then they gathered around Li Min and asked about the precautions for setting up a factory, and Li Min answered them one by one.

    "Eh, no, you don't want to build a factory for every family, right?" Li Min soon discovered the problem. From the looks of these people, it seemed that they had no intention of cooperating, and everyone had to work alone.

    "What's wrong, Liulang, is there something wrong with this? Although the investment in this cement plant is a bit large, with the strength of each of us, we can still allocate funds to build one." Yan Bei asked.

    "Of course this is not right. You have opened so many factories at once. Putting aside everything else, it is a big problem just to say that the funds are too dispersed. Even if factories are built in the future, there will be no way to compete with those larger factories.  You know that for cement, the larger the production scale, the lower its cost. At that time, with the same cost, others will produce more cement than you. Even if I help you, you will never be able to compete with others!" Li Min  He explained eagerly.

    Everyone was stunned when they heard this. The purpose of opening a cement factory is to make money. If they lose money in the end, what are they doing?  Cheng Huailiang lazily used his brain and hurriedly asked Li Min for advice: "Liu Lang, you have many ideas, and you invented cement. No one knows it better than you. Can you help us think of a way to solve this problem?"

    "This is not easy. We each find partners to pool funds together and jointly open a large factory, just like the brewery opened by my father and Liu Lang." Before Li Min could speak, Li Yong rushed to say  .

    A word woke up the dreamer. Cheng Huailiang and others immediately woke up and started to form gangs. Soon Li Yong and Li Jingheng and their friends formed a clique. Cheng Huailiang and the others had many people, with Qin Huaiyu and Cheng Huailiang as the leading group.  The leader formed a faction, and Li Jingye, a relatively independent boy, won over brothers Yuchi, Fang Yiai and others to form another faction.

    The number of people in the three factions is about the same. Li Min wanted to sign the contract right away, but he didn¡¯t have it in his hands. The contracts were all in the office in front of him.  In the end, there was no choice but to ask Fang Yiai and Cheng Hualiang, who were the strongest, to go and get the contract back. After everyone signed it, they left quickly while they were still waiting to sleep.

    But everyone obviously still underestimated how crowded the front hall was. Even with the strength of the two muscular men Cheng and Fang, it took them half an hour to come back. The clothes on their bodies were almost squeezed into rags. Fortunately, they finally brought them  A few contracts that were rolled into knots.

    After taking care of Cheng Huailiang and his gang, Li Min was just about to go back when he saw the handsome guy Li from Li Yi Mansion. His hair was disheveled and his clothes were disheveled. He led his gang to find him. His usually smiling expression turned into one of anxiety. When he saw Li Min, he immediately ran up to him.  He said in a loud voice: "Sir, there are too many people outside, and we simply don't have enough manpower. I went to the Ministry of Works to borrow some people without authorization. Now I come to ask for your permission. I hope you can approve them to help!"

    "Brother Yifu, you are so stupid to ask for instructions. I have also seen the situation in the front hall. Please ask these brothers to help me. I will treat you tonight and we will go to the 'Dengxian Tower' for a big meal together." Li Min was overjoyed when he heard this.  He hurriedly ordered that Dengxianlou was the name of Wang Zihao's restaurant, and now it has become almost a special restaurant for Li Min to entertain guests.

    "I obey my order!" Li Yifu saw Li Min's agreement and immediately turned around and ran to the front hall with others.

    Li Min looked at the background of the other party's departure and thought to himself. Although Li Yifu has a bad reputation in history, this guy is indeed a talented person, talented and flexible. Although he is a little too cautious, he has to ask himself for instructions on everything.  Do it, for fear of taking on some responsibility.  But this is not a big disadvantage.  Now that he is single and alone, he needs capable assistants to help him. Wang Zihao is considered a business talent and will definitely not be able to get involved in political affairs, but Li Yifu is a good choice.

    With the help of the staff from the Ministry of Works, the crowding situation in the front office was finally alleviated. Anyway, when Li Min woke up and came back to look, he found that most of the people in the front office had dispersed, and the rest were all lined up in several rows.  Columns, inquiries, forms, and contracts were signed, and finally there was a scene like the bank hall of later generations.

    But even so, they were still busy until almost dark before finishing today's affairs.  Li Min abides by the promiseNo, take these forty or fifty people to Dengxian Tower for a big meal, which lasts until midnight.  Although there was a curfew at this time, Li Min had already greeted the Jinwu Guards in advance. As long as these people showed the signs of the Ministry of Works or the Supervision Institute, the Jinwu Guards would let them go.

    PS: Thanks to book friend 'Eagle Knife¡ï' for your support, but everyone really looks down on Laoyu. People who work during the day and code at night can't afford to be hurt. The goal of 12,000 is too high. Laoyu is single.  Hugh, I have to go to work on Saturday, so I am destined to fail to achieve this goal tomorrow. However, in order to thank all my friends for their support, I will go to bed at 1 o'clock tonight and add another chapter. I will update at 8 o'clock tomorrow morning. I will update in the evening.  Business as usual.
