Struggle in the early Tang Dynasty

Zhou Zhengcheng said: "I'm not bragging. Think about it, I have returned the benefactor's gold in just two months. Is this something ordinary mountain people can do? If I don't get rich The means, can it work?"

"Then the way you get rich is..."

"It's the technique of making blue cloth. I buy a piece of white cloth for only one dollar. After I make this cloth into blue cloth, I can sell it for three dollars. How much profit do you think this is?"

"Is there such a thick profit? Then before you..."

"Before, it was because the Maozhou Commercial Bank set the price of the blue folder at two hundred Wen."

"A piece of cloth earns two hundred cash?"

"Of course not. Excluding the cost of dyeing, I can only earn [-] yuan for a piece of cloth. I work all day long, but I have only enough food and clothing. When my mother gets sick, I can't do anything. Now this thing can be bought and sold freely, so I can borrow it." Get rich."

Guo Ye smiled and said: "I didn't see it, I think I saved a potential rich man back then. If that's the case, then I'll accept it. Sigh, it's really rare to talk about this thing. Even if I use Qin... that, All in all, thank you."

"Benefactor, you are welcome, besides this blue horse. In addition, I have a big gift to offer!"

"and also?"

"Not bad!"

While talking, Zhou Zhengcheng carefully took out a cloth bag from his sleeve pocket, and opened it, but inside were a few pieces of paper, densely filled with small script.

"Grandpa, please see!"

"what is this?"

Zhou Zhengcheng said: "The reason why blue clips are so rare is because only the direct descendants of my Zhou family know how to make them. I am willing to dedicate this technology to my benefactor!"

Chapter 2080 Jiaxie Workshop, Relief with Work

Guo Ye was taken aback, and said: "You can't do it, you can't do it! This is the technology that your Zhou family relies on for a living, and I can't have it."

Zhou Zhengcheng smiled wryly and said: "This technology is important if it is important, and it is not important if it is not important. If it is important, our Zhou family relies on it for a living. If it is not important, our family may not have lived well before you came. better than others."

"But if you monopolize this technology now, your Zhou family will be able to make a fortune."

"But all of this is thanks to you!" Zhou Zhengcheng said quite sincerely: "The world says that we Liao people can live a good life because of the credit of King Qin and County Magistrate Li. Here, your contribution is the greatest."

Guo Ye really couldn't answer the question, so he had to say: "So you want to hand over this technology to me? It's not next to each other."

"Why not next to each other? Engong, do you remember that on the way to the county government, you bet me that if the county magistrate can enforce the law impartially, I will tell the people around me that most of the officials in the court are If you are honest and honest, if you are wronged, you can report to the officials."

"Uh...that's what happened. Isn't this boring on the road? I just said it casually."

"You said it casually, but I did it seriously. In fact, I not only did what you said, but also explained the events of the day to the elders of the family. After everyone listened, they all cheered for you It's unfair!"

Guo Ye, like a monk like Zhang Er, couldn't figure it out, and said: "What wronged me? Do you need to complain for me?"

Zhou Zhengcheng said in admiration: "Your benefactor is really noble. You don't want to repay your kindness, and you don't want people to know about your kindness. But, let me advise you, sometimes it's not good to be too noble."

"What do you mean by that?"

"You think, in the matter of bringing down Zhang Xin, there are three people who contributed the most, one is you, and the other two are County Magistrate Li and King Qin. Now that the matter is settled, County Magistrate Li has been promoted. Although King Qin has nothing to do He was promoted, but he gained a good reputation, and many people set up longevity tablets for him."

Guo Ye asked puzzledly, "So what?"

"How about it?! What about you? What about yourself? What benefits have you gained from this matter? Don't you feel wronged because you also work for us bureaucrats? Don't you feel that the common people are ungrateful?"

"I...Of course I don't think so." Of course Guo Ye couldn't tell his true identity, so he could only say: "I just want to be clear of my heart, and I didn't help you that day to gain any benefits."

"Pedantism!"

"what?"

Zhou Zhengcheng softened his tone, and said, "I didn't mean to belittle you, it's just that you have such a bad idea. Haven't you heard of the allusion of 'Zigong redeeming people'?"

"Uh... I've heard of it. But I don't think it's quite the same as the allusion of 'Zigong redeeming people'."

"What's the difference? Don't you all do good deeds without asking for anything in return? Engong, our Zhou family has already discussed it. We can't let you waste so much effort. This technology is the benefit we give you!"

"This benefit is really..." Guo Ye smiled bitterly and said, "It's too big, I can't..."

Having said that, Guo Ye's heart suddenly moved, and he changed his words: "This gift is really great, I like it very much. It's just..."

"how?"

"I can't ask for your technology for nothing. How about this, let's build a business together, and in the future..."

Zhou Zhengcheng's complexion suddenly changed, and he said, "No... no... you can't build a business name!"

"What? You can't trust me? Think you can't do business with me?"

"of course not."

"That means the clan elders don't trust me?"

"Not at all."

"That is……"

Zhou Zhengcheng sighed, and said: "Don't guess. To be honest, I lied just now. In fact, although the profit of Lan Jiaxie is large, the process is complicated and it is not so easy to do. The reason why the villain can To repay the money so quickly, most of it was collected by the clan."

Guo Ye said knowingly: "I understand. You are afraid that I will not accept your gift, so you deliberately lied and said that it is easy to make money."

"Yes. However, although the speed at which Lan Jiaxie makes money is not as exaggerated as I said, it can be regarded as very rich. The reason why I refuse you to establish a business company is not because I don't trust you, but our Zhou family can't make up so much money. money."

"It's okay. You don't need to pay for it." Guo Ye said: "I will pay 50 yuan myself, and the government will pay 40 yuan to establish a business. As for your Zhou family, you only need to develop the technology for making blue clips. I will give it to you. [-]% of the shares."

Zhou Zhengcheng was startled, and said, "Isn't that equivalent to giving our Zhou family 100 guan for free? This... This is too much. My Zhou family has only more than [-] people, and it is worth so much if we sell us."

"It's really not much money." Guo Ye said: "Our business will not be limited to Maozhou in the future, but will also develop in Meizhou, Yazhou and other places. We will build dozens or even hundreds of workshops. Go all out to produce blue clips, only [-] guan, and you will earn back soon."

Zhou Zhengcheng thought about it for a while, and said, "You have built so many workshops, and there are a lot of people. I am afraid that Lan Jiaxie's technology will not be kept secret for long."

"Secret? There is no need to keep it secret." Guo Ye shook his head and said: "Once the workshop opens, whether it is purchasing raw materials or selling goods, it is much better than a single household. Even if someone steals the technology, how can they compete?" Pass the workshop?"

"But the profit..."

Guo Ye smiled lightly, and said: "As the output increases, the profit will naturally decrease. However, the dye that makes blue valerian is unique to Sichuan. Compared with the whole country, the supply is still insufficient. It is not too low. Let's Small profits but quick turnover."

There is another sentence that Guo Ye didn't say, that is, he doesn't care about the profits of these workshops.

The reason why Guo Ye wanted Zhou Zhengcheng's technology was not because of his words, but because of the Liao people.

The easiest way to bring the Liao people back to the land smoothly is to make the Liao people rich.Simply put, it is to change them from bare feet to shoes.

If you have enough food and clothing, you know etiquette;These two sentences are positive and negative, revealing a truth-whether a person is a good citizen or not depends mainly on the economic foundation.
