Zhou Xianneng was rich and wealthy, and he didn't take Wei Zhuo and the others seriously at all. As for the small mountain forest area next to the stream, Zhou Xianneng is careful in his calculations, and in the eyes of businessmen, he is determined to win. But Wei Zhuo stopped it, and forcibly divided the creek and mountain forest area into two. Zhou Xianneng wanted to find an opportunity to take revenge on Wei Zhuo, but he didn't find a chance to deal with it for a while, and he had no choice but to do it.

Last time, although Wei Zhuo did not accept the gift from Zhou Gongzi, but later because of Zhou Xian's arrogant momentum, Wei Zhuo felt a little uneasy in his heart. But Wei Zhuo knows that the only way to do this is to continue to work hard and develop himself. Everyone will also see it in their eyes and listen to it in their hearts, and they will be able to deal with corrections easily, and they will no longer be looked down upon. But if you want to surpass Zhou Xianneng, it's just a matter of admiration. It can be seen that Zhou Xianneng has accumulated some property for generations, and his family foundation is strong, which is not comparable to ordinary landlords. Timber yellow paper business cloth and several provinces and cities, is really making money every day. But Wei Zhuo didn't want to compare his fortune with him, but he was content to have a voice on certain occasions that grew stronger day by day. At that time, Zhou Xianneng also had to do what he could, and he didn't dare to be presumptuous at will. Zhou Weizhuo also deeply knows that his foundation is still shallow, and the family property inherited by his father is only one acre and three points of land in Wangentang. The rest are all dependent on their own food and clothing to maintain their own family affairs. Therefore, when dealing with some disputes, he always speaks freely, smiles, is gentle, reasonable, and puts things in order. Be extra careful when you speak and do things, so as not to be caught.

Besides, Zhou Weizhuo on the one hand in order to improve his own prestige, but also to improve his own backup ability, he has a bottom at home, and he can only be measured in what he says and does. Zhou Weizhuo has relied on these years to accumulate and sell meat with Weizhuo and his wife for a living, helped his aunt transport medicinal materials, and accumulated some entrepreneurial capital. He has also been crawling in the business industry for many years, and he has been personally involved in running a business. Know which industry to do, know the number of money, the thickness of profits, the rolling back and turning of funds, and the state of price ups and downs. After several attempts, after many attempts to explore the situation, I felt that the yellowpaper industry was profitable. It's not that Wezzo is an expert, and it's not that Wezo has a good eye for the market. It's just that at that time, every household worshiped God and worshiped the Bodhisattva, and people died in a hundred years, and a large amount of yellow paper was consumed. It was the inevitable result of the trend of the times driven by the general trend at that time. Seeing that bamboo hair papermaking is a million profits, it only costs a few manpower costs. Seeing that people have given up their money to make yellow paper, they have gradually become wealthy. Wei Zhuo had long wanted to make some household goods and silver taels, bought a few bamboo forests, and went straight to the peak of the mountain from the Fenshui Creek to the Vicious Force. It is rumored in the world that everyone competes for fame and fortune, and the way of life is: "People go to high places, and water flows to low places." I have long heard the words of my ancestors: "In a person's life, he will be famous, he will be an official, and he will be a general." "Nothing more than that. Wei Zhuo thinks about it day and night, this life is out of reach. For a while, I watched some rising stars, relying on the livelihood of several paper mills, changing clothes and changing faces, wearing long shirts, satin horse coats and sitting in four shuttle sedan chairs, and I had the ambition to inspire, but I hope that one day I can also get this vanity, return to my hometown, visit Wang'en Dang once, and be a gentleman in front of the brothers of all generations, so as to honor the virtue of the ancestors. Although it does not mean to show off its luxury, it also has the heart of seeking glory and wealth. This is the second jump in Weizhuo's life, people in the business field, observing the changes every day, and the market in the industry. Wei Zhuosu has some vision and means, borrowing the ability of his wife Liu Zheng'e to support the family director, and the heart of the virtuous family to help the family save money. Expand the territory and build a paper pool. After several processes, the workshop is in the deep and dense place of bamboo, near the edge of the stream. Aiming at the direction of building the yellow paper industry, we saw the opportunity of rolling financial resources. Wei Zhuo led his two sons to live by the bamboo forest stream, and hired technicians to come to the bamboo forest to guide them. In the mountains and forests, a few adobe houses were built by the stream, a set of papermaking process technology that has been handed down from the ancestors to this day, working day and night, several deep pools have been prepared, and the corners of the walls are protected by lime loess, and they are carefully made under the guidance of the master, aiming to save some wages and not intend to spend unnecessary expenses. Save money and eat frugally, enter the mountain in March and go out in August. After a few months of work in the mountains, a set of processes was completed, and I went home to prepare for the start of work next year.

In March and April of the first year, Zhou Weizhuo hired more than a dozen workers to cut down bamboo hair, after several processes, and after several months of hard work, the master's careful production, the yellow paper became a shape, and dried in pages. Weizhuo was in the sun, everyone gathered around to take a closer look, the paper was thin and yellowish, and the whole sheet was easy to tear open, and the sheet was shapely. Cutting paper shaping, together and set. Stacks of yards. Wezo calculates the accounts and counts the number of papers. Ask someone to take it down from the mountain and pile it up in the warehouse, and Weizhuo carefully calculates and selects capable and hard-working people from it. Just because there was no way to earn money in the countryside at that time, short-term and long-term jobs were all divided into hard work. When the end of the year comes, if the yellow paper market is optimistic within a year, Weizhuo will also show some gifts to long-term and short-term workers, and have expressed their hearts for the New Year.

Work started in March and ended in October. Papermaking is a fine job, no better than other industries. When you are too tired, stretch and wipe the sweat from your body. Don't say how bitter it is, how tired you are, it's too sad. Let's do it, only if we keep doing it can we have hope, Weizhuo was too excited, and he didn't feel too bitter, and he was looking forward to the prosperity of the paper mill, making the paper, and then transporting it out of the mountain. Selling it out is a big deal, forgetting all the tiredness and suffering, and watching the paper pile up in the paper mill. As long as there is goods, Liu's business is at home, and there are many people who ask, and it spreads. It doesn't take long for the business to be done, the paper is good paper, the price is the price, it is enough to do the business of honest people. People are familiar with each other, and the business has been going on for a long time, so it is naturally easy to sell. His wife, Liu, is a man who is in charge of his own business.

In a few years, the two husbands and wives will play and calculate, their children will have a strong hand, and the family wealth will be prosperous. Just to save some money, not to stop and enjoy, buy more mountain paper, buy land and soil, earn more money, and be a decent landlord and gentleman. But the times are changing, and in business, Vizo is blinded by hope, and at the same time blinded by the dawn of victory. It was also doomed to the beginning of the tragedy of his life. Just when he was working hard, Weizhuo was happy and a bumper harvest was imminent. Some well-known, wealthy and powerful landlords, such as Zhou Xianneng and others, heard the rumors say: "The whole country is being liberated, and the political system is changing. So he sold his property and went to the big city. Wedrow is still working towards the pinnacle of his career. It's not that Wei Zhuo didn't know, but he was dizzy all the way, several large paper mills were withdrawn, and the business of Wei Zhuo Paper Mill improved slightly, and he was complacent. He firmly believes in a truth, business is what every dynasty wants, yellow paper is a necessity for rural families, and the current will not change because of the momentary momentum, but the scale of business is bigger and smaller.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, Wei Zhuo bought a few more bamboo forest plots at a low price to save up his family's assets. has experienced a lot of hardships and tasted the happiness and sorrow of the world. Finally, he accumulated a family property, a few mountains and forests, and a few paper mills. Wei Zhuo is carefully managed, and these hard-won family properties are oozing with the sweat and blood of Wei Zhuo's whole family.

Within a few days, Vidra was coming down from the mountain. When I met a customer buying paper, my wife Liu propped up the store and said: "Three pieces of yellow paper and one load, and two pieces of gun paper and one load." The guest said, "Can it be cheaper, if you want to buy more?" Liu said: "It's already the cheapest, you see the quality is the quality, the price is the price." You can't sell it lower, or you'll lose money. The guest looked at it and walked into the paper shop opposite, and Liu didn't chase after him, and let him pass. Vizo walked over and said, "How's business?" Liu said: "It's okay, since a few big paper mills are gone." Business is much better. "It's a difficult business, and it's not something that ordinary people can understand. Weizo said. As he was talking, the guest came back just now, and Liu was doing business. Wei Zhuo looked at it, talked with him for a few words, and knew that he was the one who handled the market, and because the price was reasonable, the business was finally done. I was happy in my heart, and then I remembered the matter of the paper factory in the mountains, and I wanted to go there, today is a settlement day, and I can't be idle any day. Tired of going around, going up the stream, it took three or five hours to arrive. As soon as Wei Zhuo arrived, he didn't breathe, so he went straight to the warehouse, and saw a warehouse full of paper, piles and piles, this year is a bumper harvest year, settle it, and settle it, so as to settle the wages of the workers. Wei Zhuo didn't have much money, so he bought a mountain forest with some money. Only a portion of the money will be paid to workers this year, and the rest will be left for next year. Vizo has always been trustworthy, and the workers believe in him.

Old man Liu is the manager of Weizhuo's paper mill, and he handles all the big and small things in the paper mill. Wezzo treated him like a brother and consulted with him in everything, and Wezzo treated him well, not only with a salary higher than that of ordinary workers, but also with a status second only to Wezzo. He travels between the paper mill and Vizo all year round, delivering information. Old man Liu is fifty years old, medium build, with a long-haired mole on his face, and a thin face, but he looks quite shrewd and capable. Since opening the paper mill, Wei Zhuo has reused him and helped Wei Zhuo with many difficult things.

In March, Vizo encountered an incident and was in a state of decision. Old man Liu came down from the mountain and talked to Wei Zhuo, talking about the paper from the mountain to be carried to the river, because the warehouse was full of yellow paper, and there was too much backlog to pile it up. Wezo was also troubled. was talking to Old Man Liu, but Old Man Liu couldn't do it, and said, "Either build a warehouse building by the river." "It took too long to build a warehouse, and now I'm waiting for the yellow paper to be put in. I didn't think about it so thoroughly for a while, so I missed a big thing. Weizo said. Old man Liu turned his head and said, "Do you have several warehouses in Zhou Xianneng's house?" Old man Liu said: "Several local big landlords have moved away, and I don't believe that they can't find empty ones." Vidra said, "Look for it, and if you have it, write back to me immediately." "This month was the time when the yellow paper cannon paper went down the mountain, because there was no big warehouse, and there was too much paper to put down, so Wei Zhuo was caught off guard. Wei Zhuo never thought that his own warehouse could not be stacked, and several paper mills made paper one after another. It made Wei Zhuo panic and messed up.

Just thinking to himself, Old Man Liu came back and said that he had gone to several big landlords' houses and had not found anyone in charge. His wife Liu heard it and said: "It's not so urgent, it's only early March, and it won't take two months to build a warehouse building, and it will be just right for May." Wei Zhuo said: "It is not so simple to build a warehouse building, and it is still a problem whether it can be built well in two months." Old man Liu took over and said: "You can use bamboo chips to make boards to surround each other, and the roof is covered with tree bark, which is simple and practical, and you don't need to spend so much time, and you can save a lot of money." Wei Zhuo's heart relaxed, bought a place a few miles away from the river, hired someone to expand the level, and asked someone to carry some bamboo from the mountain, according to Old Man Liu, a warehouse building was built in less than a month. Although I spent a lot of money, I finally completed a big thing, and I felt much more at ease, and the business circulation could be unimpeded. After giving up some money and spending some effort, the bamboo barn building was finally built. Although it is not as good as the warehouse building of other people, Wei Zhuo is still happy in his heart. After more than ten days, all the paper on the mountain was transported to the river and put into the warehouse. Just sell paper, and the business of a year begins.

Old man Liu is a careful man, and at the same time, he is also a paper mill technician, and he knows the industry situation well. When Wei Zhuo invited him, he negotiated that the salary would be higher than that of other paper mill masters, and he was invited. Wei Zhuo gave up the capital and hired a good master, so the quality of the yellow paper is excellent. The picture is a good price, and it is good to shop around.

Business is much better than in previous years, and Vichard is getting his hands on it. Fortunately, I bought a few cheap bamboo forests from Zhou Xianneng. Wei Zhuo is dedicated to business, and his wife Liu is capable, but she is a woman, not to mention having a deeper understanding and view of the world.

On this day, Wei Zhuo woke up early, he felt a little dizzy, he had no energy to walk, and his legs were a little weak, Wei Zhuo thought to himself, "Are you old?" So he went to his aunt's pharmacy, and he hadn't been there for a while. The old man had a lot of inconveniences, and he suddenly felt worried about it, so he took two steps quickly, his aunt was already eighty years away, and his aunt was also in her seventies. has been busy with business, and the matter of transporting medicinal materials has been entrusted to his two sons, and he has not asked about his aunt's recent situation, so he is more and more worried, and he trots a few steps away. As soon as I looked up, I realized that it was a little early, and my aunt's pharmacy had not yet opened, so I had to linger in front of the pharmacy. In the past few years, I got up early and greedy for darkness, worked hard, sold pork, and ran several paper mills. At the beginning of the business, thanks to the help of his aunt, he had today's performance, Wei Zhuo did not forget, but where did he have the time to see his aunt, and there was no extra money to honor his old man, Wei Zhuo knew that he owed him too much, and he couldn't make up for it. No, I will have a disturbed conscience for the rest of my life, and I have to send some tenderloin to my aunt tomorrow when I kill the pig, so that I can have a peace of mind.

Just thinking about it, my aunt slowly opened the door of the pharmacy, and Wei Zhuo walked forward quickly and called: "Auntie". Although my aunt is eighty years away, he is not deaf and blind. Seeing Vidra was as happy as seeing his own son. My aunt said, "I haven't seen you for a long time to sit for a while, how can I have free time today." Wei Zhuo said, "Auntie, you have been in good health lately. My aunt smiled and said, "It's inconvenient to be old, how can a young man be so tough." It's just thanks to my own ability to adjust the medicine, and if there is anything wrong with it, I will adjust it myself, and it will be better to take some medicine. My aunt chatted with Wei Zhuo for a while, and Wei Zhuo explained his intentions, and my aunt helped Wei Zhuo prescribe three medicines, and shouted, "It's good to drink it raw." Let's take a look at it again, the body is the capital of entrepreneurship, and I have a good life" Wei Zhuo is grateful, I don't know how to be good, just blindly nodding and saying yes. Time flies so fast, and in a trance, you are in your forties. Wei Zhuo felt a little powerless, and this family had to hold on.

The wife Liu is a good housekeeper, and he helps Wei Zhuo accumulate a big family business one by one, without his wife's frugality, how can there be today's family business. The relationship between the two husbands and wives has always been good, but the wife Liu has a big temper and personality, and Wei Zhuo has a good personality. Seeing that the family is gradually growing up, and the children are growing up, although there are some things in my heart that are not for my wife, but in terms of such an achievement, I pressed it down and did not complain. Wei Zhuo smiled and nodded when he met people, and what he wanted in business was sweetness. Customers have always been positive about Wezo, so business has always been optimistic.

Seeing that the year is approaching, after a year's business, you have to calculate how much you win or lose. I have a good bottom in my heart, and I have a hope after a year of hard work. The end of the year is the busiest time, and it is too late to prepare for the New Year, until the 30th New Year is finally busy. At the beginning of the year, there was finally a settlement, the money was earned, but how much money could be paid, and the wages owed to the paper mill workers were not paid. Oh, I'm in debt, and the money is all on the paper in the warehouse.

Besides, Wei Zhuo prescribed three pairs of medicine from his aunt and drank them in a clay pot for three days. There was no improvement, so he called his younger son to him. After listening to Weizhuo's teaching, he said, "Por, you have grown up, and it is time to worry more about the family." Your eldest brother went to Sanxi Bridge to study, and he couldn't help at home, so this burden has to fall on you. Sooner or later, I will have to hand over this burden to you. I have to teach you about the paper mill, and the killing of pigs and meat. Jipo was still a seventeen or eighteen-year-old child at the time, and he had already helped a lot in the paper mill and did not do a lot of small things, but he had not yet started a family. When I heard my father say it today, I didn't feel my whole body tremble. When I looked up at my father, I felt a few wrinkles on my father's pale face. Speaking also shows a lot of age. Hearing my father's words today, my heart was numb, and I didn't know that my father had confessed a lot of words at one time, and he couldn't figure out the bottom for a while, and I didn't know why. I only felt gloomy and sad, and I didn't know how to answer my father for a while. He just nodded habitually and turned his head to walk out the door. Turning his back to his father, tears flowed down his face. I ran to the edge of the warehouse building in one breath and couldn't cry. He was bowing his head and crying. At this time, he saw a person coming down from the side of the road, and Jipo hurriedly wiped away his tears, for fear that others would see it. But there was no hurry, the man had already come to the end, looked at Jipo, and saw Jipo's bright eyes, which looked even more radiant after shedding tears. This person is Wanke, and Wanke has pity in his heart. He stopped and asked Jipo, "Child, if you have something to be sad about, can you tell me about it?" Jipo listened and wiped his tears. Due to excessive sadness, I couldn't control my emotions for a while. He said in a moment's hesitation: "It's nothing, but I think of my father's words for a while, and I'm a little sad, so I'm crying here." Seeing that Jipo was so sad, Wan Ke couldn't bear to leave. And continued to ask, "Whose son are you?" Jipo came back to his senses and said, "I am the youngest son of Wei Zhuo, who sells meat and paper in the six elements here, and my name is Jipo. When Wan Ke heard this, he replied: "Do you have a sister who married Li Jiaping?" Jipo nodded and said, "Yes, that's my eldest sister." Wan Ke looked at Jipo and saw that this young man was born well. According to the genealogy of Wangendang's surname Zhou, it is said that he is a descendant of Zhou Yu of the Three Kingdoms, and after the famous general, the loyal and good generation has only been relocated from Jiangxi for a few generations. Wan Ke pondered carefully in his heart, the eldest daughter Tingyu and Jipo seemed to be the same age, and they were a good match. It's just that this fate will come and go, and no one can grasp it. As the saying goes, "A thousand miles of marriage are a thread." "It depends on their fate. If God sees pity, give a successful marriage and my family Tingyu, how good it should be! This thing only God knows, at this time Jipo already has a family affair, want to Li Jiaping Ruiyun to propose a parent, all fruitless, resulting in lifelong regret, never see such a life of such a nature, if you see it at the beginning, immediately set this family is good, now think about it, regret can not be reversed. Seeing that Jipo stopped crying, Wan Ke saw that everything was fine, and comforted him casually before he left slowly and went straight to the road. At this time, Ji Po came back to his senses, and he was so suspicious in his heart, and he saw that Wan Ke was so familiar with each other, what a kind face, although he was rough, but from the burly body, and in the steps like the wind. I deeply feel that there is a heroic spirit, which is slightly different from ordinary people. A little side, a few rough words, seems to have the style of the elderly, making people unforgettable for life. Jipo recognized the mystery at a glance, which shows that his eyesight is extraordinary, but he didn't tell anyone about it.

Later, Ji Po heard the words of his aunt and grandfather, and knew that his father Wei Zhuo was overworked and had some diseases on his body, which were difficult to cure for a while, so he beckoned Ji Po to do more paper mill work and signaled to exercise himself. Viper knew that family affairs were always under his mother's advice, so he asked his mother about how to handle the paper mill. While Wei Zhuo was still in good health, he also pointed out from the middle, wanting to guide Jipo to enter the paper industry as soon as possible, and he would have to count on him to start a business in the future. Although they are two brothers, because the eldest brother is studying abroad all the year round, this burden naturally falls on Jipo's head, and because he has read for a few years, he knows how to count, and his abacus is clear, and because Jipo is by his side all the year round, he listens to the teachings day and night, so he can also put people at ease when he does things. Ji Po Guanlai is a little bold, not as good as Wei Zhuo's smiling words, and does things with the vigorous and resolute spirit that young people often have, and does not turn his brain when encountering problems, he likes to associate with people with his rectum and stomach, Wei Zhuo often teaches him deeply, remember not to miss big things, and never act rashly before major events, and must think carefully through the brain before making decisions. But I never thought that Jipo, this kid, would often be unforgiving, and often offended several old technical masters in the paper mill. Wei Zhuo was a little disappointed, knowing that such a rash act, the paper mill that had been operating for many years in the future would be destroyed in his hands, seeing that his body was not as good as day by day, Jipo this kid did not listen to the call, and as soon as the bull's temper came, he had a competitive mind with others, which was a taboo to be a boss, and he must not do it. Every time Wei Zhuo called him to him, and after some painstaking teaching, his habits improved slightly, but it was not yet time to start a family, and the current urgent task was to handle his marriage, have a wife and a room to entrust, and add a house of grandchildren next year, and he might be much calmer to do things. I had such thoughts in my heart, but I haven't discussed it with my wife Liu yet.
