Transmigrated into a female county magistrate during a famine, leading her country to prosperity

Business represents competition, and life is meaningful only when it is alive.

What does the word “life” represent?

——Make the buyer want to buy.

How to “give birth”?

——Being different, having good quality and low price, and having novel products are all “life”.

So simply saying that an item is good or bad is just a general statement. Competition is inevitable in any business, and the items sold are actually pretty much the same.

In other words, the scale of the current porcelain business is gradually taking shape. Apart from the "famous porcelain" sought after by the upper class, ordinary people can only buy porcelain corresponding to the amount of money they spend - you get what you pay for, there is nothing special about it.

If you want to break this market rule, you have to "give birth".

The Fang family’s porcelain business is not small, but it cannot be said to be that big because they have never been able to have children.

And now, Fang Wenxiu feels that he is "able to have children".

As long as Fang's kiln can produce new porcelain before other kilns, it will be able to gain a reputation and suppress other kilns! As long as he operates properly, even if other kilns figure out the reason and start using feldspar to make porcelain, he is sure to not fall behind!

The Fang family’s opportunity has come!

His chance...is here!

Fang Wenxiu suppressed his excitement, leaned on the table, and asked anxiously: "Master Shen, how much feldspar do you have? Can I buy some from you first? Just name a price, any amount is fine!"

Fang Ziyan was stunned by his elder brother's words. He touched the feldspar left and right, but couldn't figure out how this stone could be so extraordinary.

"It's too polite to say I'm selling it." Shen Zheng smiled when he heard it. "I brought back the feldspar this time, and it's useful. I called you here because I thought the Fang family has a porcelain kiln. If you're willing, you can take some and try it. If it really works, you can go directly to Lord Yin of Baiyun County to buy it."

She was only trying to help Yin Wencai and Baiyun County, and the Fang family was just a side job.

"Yes! Yes!" Seeing that Shen Zheng was unwilling to pay, Fang Wenxiu promised directly: "How about this? When the new porcelain is made, Tongan County porcelain will be supplied by the Fang family, and we will only charge the cost in the future!"

From his perspective, he obviously thought more than Shen Zheng.

It seems that Lord Shen is just a puller, but what is the reality?

She gave the Fang family a great opportunity to turn things around. Such an opportunity is hard to come by, and the beneficiaries deserve a thousand thanks.

Fang Wenxiu originally wanted to say that porcelain from Tongan County would be supplied free of charge in the future, and that as much as one wanted would be available.

But on second thought, Lord Shen would never agree to such thanks. If he said too much, it would only make people dislike him. It would be better to benefit the people, and Lord Shen would be happier.

Shen Zheng was indeed somewhat moved.

If Fang Wenxiu took the credit for the favor and said how much he wanted to thank her, she would definitely not accept it.

But it was obvious that Fang Wenxiu knew what she was thinking - using the people of Tongan County as bait was indeed tempting.

While Shen Zheng was still thinking, Fang Ziyan slammed his hand on the table and agreed to the price like a little adult. He even started bargaining: "How can it be enough to just charge the cost? Big brother, you have to guarantee delivery and replacement! If it breaks, you have to pay for it!"

After saying this, Fang Ziyan was secretly delighted.

——He is such a genius! He also wants to work for the benefit of the people like Lord Shen!

"That's right!" Fang Wenxiu slammed the table upon hearing this, feeling very happy: "Zi Yan is right! All porcelains purchased by the people of Tongan County from the Fang family porcelain kiln will be replaced if they are broken! No matter how long it takes!"

Why didn't he think of that?

Free gift is not acceptable, but free exchange is acceptable after purchase. This reason is valid!

Shen Zheng was stunned, Fang Wenxiu continued: "If porcelain with feldspar added breaks during daily use, it must be of poor quality and the kiln did not calcine it properly! The Fang family must recycle the defective items and replace them with new ones!"

What a genius!

genius!

He and Fang Ziyan are simply two genius brothers!

Shen Zheng wanted to applaud the two brothers. "You mean...porcelain should be like iron, indestructible and unbreakable?"

Fang Wenxiu chuckled and said shyly: "The people of Tongan County don't smash porcelain either..."

"......" Shen Zheng choked: "No. If you are so supportive, the people will not cherish the porcelain so much."

Shen Zheng is a very frugal person at heart.

If something is broken, don't replace it, but repair it first; if clothes are torn, don't replace them, but mend them first. The people of Tongan County are also like this now, and she doesn't want Fang Wenxiu to use some small favors to test the people's values.

"Lord Shen..." Fang Wenxiu wanted to argue again.

Shen Zheng immediately said: "Just do as you said before, including the material cost and firing cost. This is the best for the people. I thank you on behalf of the people."

Seeing her confident expression, Fang Wenxiu didn't dare to argue anymore, and nodded with a smile: "I am the one who should thank you, then I will do as you say."

After the two parties reached an agreement, Shen Zheng orally explained the method of firing porcelain with feldspar.

Fang Wenxiu looked serious and wrote down every word, while Fang Ziyan kept scratching his head as he listened.

"Feldspar is best used after being purified, but as you know, purification is a technical job. Right now, Lord Yin of Baiyun County is mining and purifying it. This time... you can try the effect of unpurified feldspar first, and then make your own choice."

Fang Wenxiu nodded quickly, feeling as if his butt was being pricked by needles and he could no longer sit still.

After loading the sorted feldspar ore onto the Fang family's carriage, Fang Wenxiu said goodbye. Shen Zheng thought for a moment and called him back.

She said, "Baiyun County wants to do business, so the news about Changshi...cannot be suppressed for long."

Yin Wencai is not an imperial merchant. He is a business owner and he is not just a buyer.

Fang Wenxiu's expression froze when he heard this: "Thank you, Lord Shen, for your advice. I will set out today and buy some feldspar before and after purification."

He trusted the person in front of him, so he didn't have to wait for the test results.

Although he said "buy some", he actually wanted to empty Baiyun County.

Xiao Ji from the Salt and Iron Department and Fang Wenxiu left one after another. Just when Shen Zheng thought that the matter was over for the day, the sound of horse hooves rang out at an inopportune time.

"Lord Shen!" The man raised his arm and shouted. Shen Zheng recognized him at a glance, with a face full of question marks.

Why did the little round-faced yamen runner from Baiyun County come to Tongan County?

"Whoa..." The carriage stopped, and the little round-faced man jumped off the carriage with a look of joy: "Master Shen, I am Xiaochun, a servant of Baiyun County Yamen, and I am here to bring you a stone on your orders!"

Tongan County!

Tongan County! The long-awaited Tongan County, the Spring Festival is here!

"......" Shen Zheng looked at the carriage full of long stones behind him, covered her forehead and asked: "When did your master tell you?"

Xiaochun scratched his head: "As soon as you left, the master gave the order, but I took the wrong road and wasted time..."
