Although Ying Zheng decided to relax commercial restrictions and reduce commercial taxes, the specific details still need to be discussed with all officials, and the decree cannot be implemented so quickly.

Chu Yuening was not in a hurry because she had other measures to implement to encourage trade.

Inside the Qinian Palace.

"Establish a sales department within the factory?"

Yao Jia couldn't help but be surprised when she heard the strange instructions from the Queen.

Seeing the empress nod with a smile, she frowned slightly and couldn't help feeling worried.

"Your Majesty, among the four classes of scholars, farmers, merchants and artisans, commerce is the least important profession. Although social trends have changed greatly, people still hold prejudices against business."

"Would the workers really agree?"

Chu Yuening was not surprised by Yaojia's concerns.

The ancient class system was strict, and in the people's deeply rooted concept, doing business was ultimately a minor path.

But there is a saying that money makes the world go round. Even the emperor would be shaken by enough wealth.

She looked at the worried female official, curled her red lips slightly, and uttered some pointed words.

"As long as there is enough benefit, there are people willing to go through fire and water, let alone the mere opinions of the world."

"If someone isn't moved, it's because the money isn't enough."

Yaojia listened to the easy-to-understand truth and fell into deep thought.

After a while, she looked enlightened and then lowered her head in shame.

"It is because I am stupid."

"You are not dull, but rather steady. That is why I trust you the most."

Chu Yuening corrected seriously, her tone gentle, like a spring breeze blowing past one's ears.

Yaojia was deeply moved when he heard this, and secretly decided to work for the queen for the rest of his life.

A quarter of an hour later, Chu Yuening finished explaining the specific matters.

She picked up the teacup and took a sip, then gently ordered them to leave.

"I won't say any more. You should arrange this matter properly first. I will also go to Zhangtai Palace, otherwise your Majesty will be displeased again."

The woman had a cool and elegant face, but her whole body was filled with the gentle temperament accumulated over the years. At this moment, a hint of shy anger appeared between her eyebrows, making her look very charming and attractive.

Upon hearing this, Yaojia responded respectfully, but was secretly feeling emotional in her heart.

His Majesty truly loves the Queen and wants her to accompany him every day.

This sticky feeling is even sweeter than that of a newlywed couple.

A few days later.

Since the factory is under state control, adding a sales department is not a big deal. After all, it is self-produced and self-sold, and it can also increase treasury revenue.

As a result, a new department was soon added to the factories in Xianyang.

However, although the department is there, there is still no staff to handle the work.

Adhering to the idea of ​​"keeping the wealth within the family", the factory managers planned to give priority to recruiting from the workers in their own factory.

After learning this explosive news, the workers were excited and gathered around the recruitment notice with curiosity, discussing it enthusiastically.

"Sales department? What's that for? How is their work different from ours?"

"It says it's specifically responsible for selling the goods produced by this factory."

"Don't we sell our factory's goods directly to the supply and marketing cooperative? Isn't that redundant?"

"That was in the past. Since we got these machines, the warehouses are almost full of the goods we produce now, and there's no way the supply and marketing cooperatives can sell them all."

"No wonder they're opening a sales department. Do they need to go out of town to sell goods?"

"After all, it's just like running a business. It's better to work in a workshop, which is stable and reliable."

"Yeah, it's all a waste of time and effort, but if it doesn't sell, it will all be a waste of effort."

Just when the workers were losing interest, a shrewd worker noticed the small words about treatment.

"Tsk tsk, this salesperson's treatment is really good! Not only is there a guaranteed salary, but there are also commissions. It's really good."

"Commission? Let me see...hiss~ As long as I can sell a batch of goods, I won't have to worry about food and drink for several months!"

"Can you really make so much money? Then I'd like to try it."

"I'm going to sign up now. A real man should go out and explore the world. It's not fun to just sit around in the workshop!"

"I don't want to screw anymore!"

The generous commission instantly ignited the workers' enthusiasm, and their desire to make money burned fiercely. Some smart people even ran to sign up.

Chen Ergou is one of them, and he is running in the front.

When he first came to Xianyang City, he worked as a small vendor and liked the feeling of making money, but an unexpected disaster changed everything.

Later, due to the pressure of life, he could only do some hard labor to make a living. Finally, he was lucky enough to enter the factory and was promoted to team leader. His life was comfortable and stable.

It’s only now that I have a child that I realize that raising a child is really too expensive. You have to take good care of him when he is young, and when he grows up you have to pay for his education and help him get married.

He's simply a money-eating beast.

But no matter how much it costs, he is still his precious child. As a father, of course I have to do my best to provide him with the best living conditions.

Next, with Chen Ergou's advantages, he was naturally successfully hired and became a glorious member of the cement factory's sales department.

However, on his first day at work, the factory manager issued a cement sales task, which made him a little worried.

Cement is a good thing. It is extremely hard and strong when used for paving roads, building city walls, and constructing large fortifications.

But it is not a necessity for people's lives. Who has the time to buy a bag of cement and keep it at home?

So how should we sell it?

However, what was unexpected was that when the gloomy Chen Ergou returned home from work, the problem was solved.

"You can sell cement to those who build houses!"

Hearing about her husband's troubles, Lan'er immediately thought of the factory dormitory building, which was built with cement and was still solid and sturdy after so many years.
