Chapter 41 Daming Airlines
Liang Yunying's servant inquired about the news and found out that since yesterday morning, there were several newly opened factories recruiting large quantities of workers in Yahang.
The recruiter is waiting on site. When a group of workers is recruited, they will be given money and taken away on site, and then come back to continue recruiting people. It seems that they want as many people as they can come.
It seems that many manufacturers are recruiting workers, and the wages they are offering are getting higher and higher.
I heard that this morning the wages of ordinary laborers have increased to 4 yuan per month. Those with certain skills or literacy can directly get more than 6 yuan. In the past few days, they could receive wages on a daily basis.
Relevant news gradually spread from last night to this morning. Unemployed workers who were originally scattered in various places in the city are now walking towards the Yahang Square.
There were also workers and clerks who had jobs who heard the news and couldn't help but look for opportunities to go over to see the situation, so some shopkeepers on the street were a little agitated.
Liang Yunying didn't know about the peace talks, but she knew about the royal family's opening of bans on several industries, and she immediately understood that this was a new manufacturer entering the industry recruiting people.
Those who knew the news yesterday were all the real aristocrats of the Ming Dynasty, those with direct access to the court, and those with deep capital strength.
In order to seize the opportunity in the new industry, we have to recruit people first. Even if we pay more, we cannot fall behind others.
Liang Yunying feels that if these new manufacturers recruit the refugees away, the streets will become cleaner in the future.
However, my son's business may be affected.
Liang Yunying judged the market situation in her mind and asked the carriage to go directly to Fengtai County Commercial Office.
To register a business, you can go to the yamen directly under the ministries, the yamen of Shuntian Prefecture, or the yamen of Fuguo County under Shuntian Prefecture.
Among them, the closest government office to the old city is the Fengtai County Commercial Office in the north of Shuntian City.
This indirectly leads to the fact that the most luxurious place in the new city is not Daxing County in the core area (the central area of modern Daxing District), but Fengtai County, which is closest to the old city.
Daxing County is basically only responsible for the affairs of Daxing County, and at most it is also responsible for the business affairs of other areas of the new city.
However, Fengtai County actually manages the business affairs of most of the powerful people in the entire old city, so the scale of Fengtai County Commercial Yamen is larger than that of Shuntian Prefecture Commercial Yamen.
After Liang Yunying's carriage stopped, he looked out and couldn't help but shake his head.
Just as I guessed, this place tends to be a bit overcrowded.
After all, if a new manufacturer wants to recruit workers or start operations, it must first go through the registration process. If an existing manufacturer wants to increase its business scope, it must also go through the change procedures.
Those who came to register to open a business or factory today were actually a step too late, but the number has swelled. There would definitely not be so many people there yesterday.
However, Liang Yunying is not worried. As a representative of the feudal royal family, the powerful bourgeoisie, she certainly has privileges in this era.
Let the servant take the names of her husband and herself and go directly to the official in charge of the Yamen.
Liang Yunying asked her maid to arrange her dress, hair and crown, and put on a thick cloak before getting out of the car slowly.
Liang Yunying was about to walk into the Yamen when she saw several officers running all the way to greet her.
"Yao Guanghai, the director of the Patent Management Department of the Ministry of Industry, has met his wife."
"Zhao Wenyuan, the director of the Manufacturer Management Department of the Ministry of Commerce, has met Madam."
"Zhang Nanxing, the office clerk of Fengtai County Shuntian Prefecture, met Madam."
"Wang Zhenyi, the shopkeeper of the Ming Dynasty Royal Flying Machine Company, has met Madam."
Liang Yunying was a little surprised when she heard the other party's self-introduction. She didn't expect that not only the secretary of the Daxing County Commercial Yamen came out, but also officials from the Ministry of Commerce and the Ministry of Industry.
There is also a middle-aged woman who is quite elegantly dressed. She is not an official, but the manager of a company affiliated to the consortium.
According to the new Renwu system, women could also take exams and go to school, and they could also become officials and do business.
However, due to the strong influence of traditional culture, the actual number of women who are really willing and able to become officials and do business is still relatively rare.
This Wang Zhenyi must be very capable if she can be the boss of a large enterprise affiliated to the imperial consortium with many clans.
Liang Yunying greeted them with a bit of surprise and entered the Fengtai County Commercial Yamen under the guidance of Zhang Nanxing.
The two parties sat down in the reception room in the back hall of the Yamen. The staff in the Yamen brought tea, and Wang Zhenyi and the three of them each explained the situation to Liang Yunying.
The old emperor arranged yesterday for the royal consortium to immediately register and establish a flying machine company, appointing Wang Zhenyi as the shopkeeper, and asked her to obtain the patent authorization as soon as possible.
Officials from the Ministry of Industry were arranged by Zou Shangshu to come here specifically to deliver the patent certificate to Liang Yunying. Officials from the Ministry of Commerce were reminded by Zou Shangshu and came specifically to register the patent on site.
Two yamen and one company, with their offices and registration locations in Xincheng, expected that Liang Yunying would come to Fengtai County Commercial Yamen first, so they came over and waited.
The reason why the other party worked so hard to help was obviously because of the old emperor, but he was putting on a show of attitude, and Liang Yunying certainly would not deliberately put on airs.
Liang Yunying repeatedly told Xie that it was really troublesome, and was very cooperative in explaining her and Zhu Jingyuan's situation, and asked them to register the company's registration information on the spot.
In today's Ming Dynasty, commercial organizations that produce goods by themselves are usually called factories, and those that only engage in trade and channels, as well as those that engage in R&D, design, and operations are mostly called firms.
Conventional commercial organizations that engage in both production and operation are generally called companies, while very large-scale group companies with multiple investments and holdings are called consortiums.
Factories and firms are the largest and most basic commercial organizations, so the court and the people usually use "manufacturers" to refer to all commercial organizations.
At this time, the word "enterprise" did not exist. Emperor Shizu did not specifically invent it, and everyone was accustomed to using the word "manufacturer" to express it.
At the same time, according to the regulations of the Ministry of Industry, at what level of government office a manufacturer is registered, the name of the place it belongs to must be added before the manufacturer's name.
If it is registered in Fengtai County, it must be called a certain business firm in Fengtai County, and if it is registered in Shuntian Prefecture, it can be called a certain factory of Shuntian Prefecture.
Only if it is registered directly at the Yamen of the Ministry of Commerce, the format of a certain company in Ming Dynasty can be used.
Due to the Ming Dynasty title, officials from the Ministry of Commerce will require the manufacturer's name to be as regular, grand, and concise as possible, and not as random as the factory registered in the county.
According to officials from the Ministry of Commerce, apart from the Ming Dynasty Royal Flying Machine Company, this is the only manufacturer in the aviation and aircraft business in Ming Dynasty.
As long as the name of Zhu Jingyuan's company does not completely overlap with the name of the consortium's company, it can be as grand and concise as possible.
At the same time, since you are planning to do production yourself in the future, you should just call the company now instead of thinking about calling the firm first and then change it later.
Since the business scope is not just one item, but can be foreseen to be very broad, then just use the two words "aviation" to collectively refer to it.
Therefore, the "Fengtai County Aviation Machinery Design Firm" planned by Zhu Jingyuan eventually became "Daming Airlines".
Of course Ming officials did not know that the name of such-and-such airline was usually a company operating aircraft shipping business in Zhu Jingyuan's previous life.
The business scope opened to Daming Airlines by the Ministry of Commerce is also very broad, or very general.
The entire industry is newly opened, and relevant officials don’t know exactly how it should be divided. They can only make a general classification with reference to the automobile industry.
In addition, Zhu Jingyuan was the creator of this industry. Officials from the Ministry of Commerce and the Ministry of Industry discussed and simply opened up all business scope of the aviation industry.
So it’s really no problem for Daming Airlines to directly engage in air transportation business.
The company's registered business address, which Liang Yunying originally planned to put on a house named by Zhu Jianyan, is in a relatively prosperous commercial district in Fengtai County.
However, with the advice and help of Wang Zhenyi, they landed in a special area called "Royal Garden", where the flying machine company of the royal consortium is also located.
The emperor gave a special order yesterday to allocate a floor to Zhu Jingyuan there, with water, electricity, heating, office equipment, and living facilities, all available, and he can move in at any time.
To facilitate the process, rent for these office spaces still has to be paid, but there is only a symbolic minimum amount.
The total share capital of Da Ming Airlines is two thousand gold notes, divided into one hundred shares with twenty gold notes as one share.
All the shares were invested in cash by Liang Yunying, the big owner, and all were transferred to the company's account within one month.
Due to the dedicated personnel, things that might have taken a long time or even days to go to several places were completed in just over an hour.
Chapter completed!
