Iron Armored City

The three kinds of cigarettes come from different merchants. They can sell a pack of cigarettes for "sixty-eight silver bull coins" and are accepted by mass consumers, which shows that they do have their own uniqueness.

The price of each box of 'Sailong' brand cigarettes is 68 silver bull coins.

The price of each box of 'Gladiator' cigarettes is 59 silver bull coins, a difference of nine silver bull coins in the price range.

As for the "Si Tai" cigarettes, the price per box is 20 silver bulls, which is 48 silver bulls cheaper than the "Sailong" cigarettes, and 39 silver bulls cheaper than the "Gladiator" cigarettes.

These three types of cigarettes are recognized by the 20 connoisseurs as the best quality cigarettes because they have the highest retention rate.

"Boss, the selection results are out!"

Jotes interrupted Li Yinguang's meditation, leaned over to remind him softly in his ear.

Li Yinguang raised his head, and the 20-member appreciating group had already selected the cigarettes they thought were of the best quality.

"Say the result directly!"

Alma said with a happy face: "Nine people think that the cigarettes produced by our own tobacco factory are the best, six people choose 'Sailong', three people choose 'Gladiator', and one person chooses 'Si Long'." Thai'."

There is no doubt that in this temporary competition, the cigarettes produced by the Iron Armor City Tobacco Factory are definitely the strongest winners.

Li Yinguang raised his head and said to Bai Youxuan: "The facts tell me that the cigarettes produced by our tobacco factory are quite different from the cigarettes sold in the market outside."

Bai Youxuan understood what Li Yinguang meant, she nodded after thinking about it and said, "Is the cost expensive?"

Li Yinguang raised his hand and waved away the others, leaving Alma, Sophia, Buhe, Saipan and others behind, and then calmly said: "This kind of cigarettes produced by mixing shredded tobacco will be given priority to people in Iron Armored City in the future." Using it, the domestic tobacco company sells 25 copper bull coins per box. Based on this price, the profit is about five times!"

Bai Youxuan had an extremely incredible expression on her face, and soon realized what it meant: "The profit is so high?"

Selling 25 copper bull coins for each box has five times the profit, that is to say, the cost price of each box of "Gubao" cigarettes is only five copper bull coins.

Li Yinguang shook his head with a smile and said: "In the Iron Armored City of Gubao, tobacco will belong to the exclusive industry in the future.

Therefore, when pricing itself, it was formulated with reference to the minimum wage standard in Iron Armored City, and did not mix too much profit into it. "

After a short pause, he continued: "On the premise of first meeting the needs of the people in the Iron Armored City of the Ancient Castle, it will be sold to the outside world. Of course, the price will not be so cheap!"

Bai Youxuan looked at Li Yinguang and asked, "You mean to make 'Gubao' a high-end brand of cigarettes for sale?"

Li Yinguang thought for a while and said, "Maybe it's mid-to-high end. The price is based on the price of 'Si Tai' cigarettes, how about it?"

If a pack of 'Old Castle' cigarettes is sold for 20 silver bull coins, then almost all the costs and expenses will be shared together, and it will not exceed two silver bull coins.

Bai Youxuan soon realized that this was definitely a 'big business'.

"Can!"

Bai Youxuan's eyes were full of unconcealable excitement, and she tried to calm herself and said: "If the operation is good, maybe the 'cigarettes' can feed back the entire Old Castle!"

Li Yinguang smiled and didn't say much, he still firmly believed that the profit of tobacco was enough to move the empire.

Especially this kind of 'mid-to-high-end', expensive cigarettes!

"Quality alone is not enough, but we also need to work hard on cigarette packaging. It is said that people rely on clothes and horses and saddles. Find someone to design a cigarette case. With such a large scale, Qingzhou Prefecture should already have a complete industrial chain. .” Li Yinguang said.

】

Bai Youxuan understood Li Yinguang's meaning, and just about to open her mouth, she hesitated and swallowed the words that came to her lips.

Because 'tobacco' belongs to Iron Armor City's exclusive industry, Li Yinguang also specially set up a 'tobacco exclusive company', including tobacco procurement, cigarette production, franchised stores, etc., which are all managed by Elma. The Ironclad City Matron is the person in charge of the 'Tobacco Company'.

So, even though Bai Youxuan is a bit greedy for the 'tobacco' industry, it's not easy to make it too obvious.

Li Yinguang smiled, he saw what Bai Youxuan was thinking, and said to Alma: "From now on, you will be responsible for the management of the 'tobacco franchise company' in Iron Armor City, tobacco purchase, tobacco production, and tobacco sales are all your business.

Externally, I will set up a "Gubao Brand Cigarette Operation Company" to be responsible for the sales and operation of "Gubao Brand Cigarettes".

This company is the same as the 'Ancient Castle Store', and I will be directly responsible for the management for the time being. From now on, the "Golden Castle" cigarettes produced by the "Tobacco Specialty Company" in Iron Armored City will be sold to the "Golden Castle Cigarette Foreign Operation Company" at the ex-factory price of five silver bull coins per box. "

Alma was taken aback for a moment, and soon understood what Li Yinguang meant. In the future, there will be two different systems inside and outside Iron Armored City, and there will be two different groups of personnel for distribution and operation.

The 'inside' of the Iron Armored City is the world inside the Iron Armored City, and the 'outside' of the Iron Armored City is the world outside the Iron Armored City. The two will not be confused, nor will they have large-scale contact.

"You are the one who wants the Iron Armored City of the Ancient Castle..."

Having said this, Alma stopped, because what she was going to say next should be regarded as a forbidden behavior for the superior.

Li Yinguang didn't have the idea of ​​a 'great dictator', and he had nothing to hide from these elders about the operation of the Iron Armored City of the Ancient Castle.

"The Iron Armored City of the Ancient Castle is positioned as a 'mobile city'. Going out of the Iron Armored City in the future will also require special review standards. It doesn't mean that everyone will not be allowed to leave, but that it is not necessary and not to leave." Li Yinguang said.

In the future, after the population of the Iron Armored City reaches a certain amount, it should be able to be self-sufficient, and the Iron Armored City will not stay in one place for a long time.

Of course, there is still a long way to go in the long run. After all, the population of the Iron Armored City of the Ancient Castle at this time is only about 5,000 people. Moreover, not everyone is suitable to stay in Iron Armored City for a long time.

"The personnel in the Iron Armored City of the Ancient Castle and the personnel hired by the Ancient Castle outside the Iron Armored City will have different salaries and benefits. Internal personnel are internal personnel, external personnel are external personnel, and external personnel are assigned by the Ancient Castle. The subordinate companies in Iron Armored City are managed, and the internal personnel are managed by Iron Armored City itself!"

To put it simply, internal and external are incompatible. For example, the "Gubao Brand Cigarette Operation Company", the personnel it recruits in Qingzhou Prefecture belong to this company only, not to the Gubao Iron Armored City, but the "Gubao Cigarette Operation Company" The operating company' belongs to the Iron Armored City of Gubao.

The personnel of the external company are not equal to the internal personnel of the Iron Armored City of the Ancient Castle, and they cannot enter and leave the Iron Armored City of the Ancient Castle at will!
