Chapter 177: Moldy
The Shen family happily transported the ink away, this batch of ink, the Li family only charged the processing fee, but Shen Ziyan had already inquired and learned that this batch of ink used the Goryeo ink and ink method in the Pan's ink method, not to mention anything else, just this gimmick alone is enough to make literati rush to it.
What's more, Pan Mo is now extinct. Therefore, the value of this batch of ink is needless to say, and everyone knows it.
Shen Ziyan secretly calculated, this batch of ink does not need to be taken off for the time being, all of them are properly collected, just put it for 20 years, the new ink will become the old ink, and then sell it again, then the profit will be ten times and a hundred times possible.
Thinking about this, my heart is even more happy. I thought about Li Jingfu asking him to ask Shen Shixing to write an ink commentary.
So he hardpacked another batch of ink and sent it to Shen Shixing in the capital, and said to the accompanying people: "Give the ink to the adult, and then ask the adult to write a comment after using it." ”
This is what he promised the Li family, and he wants to do it.
…………
Tian's Mozhuang.
"The Li family recently helped the Shen family make a batch of ink, it is the re-ink of Gaoli ink, using the Pan's ink method, the production is very successful, Shen Dangjia is very happy, I heard that someone sent a batch of ink to the capital to Shen Shixing, please Shen Shixing to try the ink, and write an ink review to return to the Li family......" Tian Ronghua was looking at the account book, while listening to the steward Fang talk about the affairs of the Li family these days.
"Phew, what kind of luck is this Li family? This has climbed up to the Shen family in Suzhou again, I heard Xu San say, that Shen Shixing is the top champion of Jiajing for forty-one years, and his literary talent is extraordinary. Tian Er was drinking tea leisurely on the side. At this time, I heard this from the steward. I was angry for a while.
Tian Ronghua also frowned. She is also very anxious, in the past two years, the Li family's new ink has been launched wave by wave, coupled with the civil strife of the Tian family this year, and there is a matter of seizing tribute ink, and now in Nanjing, Li Mo's reputation has surpassed Tian Mo, so, then next year's tribute to ink. Even with the support of the Xu family, it is difficult for the Tian family to make achievements.
This kind of result is not what Tian Ronghua wants, so let's not talk about anything else now, just for her future status in the Xu family, she must also fight for this tribute.
It's just that she is also helpless in the current situation, on jishu, the Li family's hundreds of years of jishu precipitation is not comparable to her Tian family's few years of hard work. For example, the Shen family's ink, in fact, she got the news a long time ago, and she tried it a few times. But all failed, I didn't expect zuihou. But Li Zhenniang succeeded.
There's really no way around this.
"The second son is a little calm, I'm afraid that this time the Li family will move a stone to hit his own feet." At this time, the steward on the side looked a little weird.
"How?" Hearing the words of the steward, Tian Ronghua asked strangely. Could it be that there is any trouble in the Shen family's business?
"Some time ago, I went to Langfang one day, and I saw the guy named Sun Wenjie of the Li family coming out of the Jiang Pharmacy in Langfang, I was curious, inquired, and learned that the guy went to the Jiang Pharmacy to buy medicinal materials for making ink, and most of the people in the Jiang Pharmacy knew that there were many fakes and spoiled medicines in the pharmacy, and I spent money to find the guys inside to inquire, it seemed that that day, the guy of the Li family bought a batch of moldy and treated medicines, and the medicinal materials were used to make the Shen family's batch of ink.
Second son, third lady, you know, this kind of moldy medicine, after treatment, the appearance is no different from haode, even better than ordinary medicinal materials, but mixed into the ink, plus since the beginning of autumn this year, there is more rain, the Shen family's ink is new ink, and it has not been completely dry, so, as long as there is a half and a half days, those inks are afraid to be moldy. "Steward Fang's way.
"Is that true?" Tian Ronghua's face was excited. Then he was a little puzzled: "Didn't the Li family's medicinal materials always be bought in the Gong family's medicine hall next door to her house?" ”
"Well, eight or nine is not far from ten, and during that time, Gong's Medicine Hall happened to be out of stock." Steward Fang nodded.
Listening to Steward Fang's words, Tian Ronghua was silent. On the other hand, Tian Er is hahadaxiao, and the straight way God helps me.
"Steward Fang, let's add another fire, let people let out some rumors, and say that the Li family uses inferior medicinal materials to make ink." After thinking about it for a while, Tian Ronghua said with a calm face, although others don't believe it for the time being, after all, Li Mo's quality is well-known, but it's okay, it means that something happened to the Shen family's Mo, so people can't help but believe it.
At that time, she will have to see what she will do with Li Zhenniang?
"Okay, the third sister has a high move." Tian Er is afraid that the world will not be chaotic.
Steward Fang also nodded, and went down to make arrangements.
In a blink of an eye, it was the end of September, the continuous drizzle, and the weather at the end of September was not cold in Nanjing, but there was always a feeling of gloom.
And during this time, the news from the north is getting worse and worse. Since April and May, I have been detained in Datong, Xuanfu and other places. And in September, the trouble is even more fierce.
As more and more news came, Zhenniang couldn't help but be a little worried about Luo Wenqian. It's just that at this time, it is not as good as the later generations, there is no telephone network, etc., and the things in the north are still foggy for the people of Nanjing.
And the news from Ping'an's sister-in-law, Yan Xilai is organizing people to go to the north to inquire about the news. As a result, some worries were had to be put down.
Early in the morning, as soon as Li's Mozhuang opened, Zhenniang just walked out of Mozhuang, and heard Yao Niangzi chatting with Gong Niangzi.
"Gong Niangzi, have you heard? Recently, there have been rumors on the street that the Li family is making ink with inferior medicinal materials. ”
"What words? Do you believe that? The Li family's medicinal materials are all bought in my Gong family, is it possible that my Gong family sells inferior medicinal materials? Whoever preaches this, I will judge him. As soon as Yao Niangzi's words were poisoned, Gong Niangzi exploded first.
"But no, I'm also saying, the Li family's ink has been used by my kids, and most of the people in their school are also using it, and they all say that the Li family's ink is good, and a piece of ink can be used for a year." Yao Niangzi was also indignant.
Zhen Niang listened to it on the side, and couldn't help frowning, recently there was this rumor on the official street somehow, although because the Li family has always attached importance to quality. Therefore there is not much faith. But it's been a long time. It's not impossible for three people to become tigers.
This matter has to be taken seriously, and she wants to find out who is behind this rumor.
And at this moment, at the entrance of Guanjie, a group of people came over noisily carrying a few boxes, led by Shen Ziyan and a scribe in his early thirties with an elegant bearing.
Shen Ziyan's face was not very good at this time, and Zai Hemo, who he had high hopes for, did not expect that it would be moldy in just over 20 days. made him lose face in the clan, and he couldn't swallow this breath.
The scribes on one side were indifferent.
And the appearance of such a group of people immediately attracted the whispers of the shopkeepers around the official street, and it was clear that most of these people, except for the scribe, were angry, and this was a bad look, but I didn't know which one had an accident.
After a while, the gang arrived at the door of Li's Mozhuang.
Zhenniang saw Shen Ziyan. was about to come forward to say hello, but he didn't think that Shen Ziyan waved his hand. Those people put down the boxes they were carrying, and then lined them up at the door of Li's Mozhuang. The door of Li's Mozhuang was blocked tightly.
This situation is clearly here to find a fork.
"Shen Dangjia, why are you doing this?" Zhenniang couldn't help but sink her face. I also wondered in my heart, why did Haode, who had cooperated well before, turn his face now.
"This is the ink review written by my cousin Shixing, Zhen girl, take a look." That Shen Ziyan took out a piece of paper from his arms with a calm face and handed it to Zhenniang.
"Gold is easy to obtain, Li Mo is hard to find, today is not as good as the ancient, and it is difficult to live up to his real name." Zhen Niang never thought that Shen Shixing's ink review would be like this. Her head thumped, she could barely think, and at the same time there was a wave of anger.
She didn't expect that Shen Shixing zuihou actually gave such an ink comment from the Li family, no, she was not convinced, thinking, Zhen Niang took a heavy breath: "Shen is in charge, I'm afraid this ink comment is unfair, right?" ”
"Whether it's fair or not, the virgin girl will talk about it after seeing it herself." Shen Ziyan said with some sarcasm, and then with a wave of his hand, the family opened the box, all of which were made by the Li family before, but at this time, when the box was opened, it emitted a musty smell, and it could be smelled from afar. And on the ink body, there are white spots, which are really white and distinct.
"This girl, such ink, giving such an ink comment is already considered merciful." At this time, the scribe beside Shen Ziyan said indifferently.
As soon as Zhen Niang saw these inks, her heart fluttered and she knew that there was a big problem.
At this time, the people around were in an uproar, and it was rumored that the Li family used inferior medicinal materials to make ink, and everyone still didn't believe it, but now that I look at it, there is really such a thing.
At this time, the old shopkeeper Li and the others who heard the news also hurriedly came out of the house, and when they saw this situation, their faces also changed, and this kind of thing happened to the Li family, it was really terrible for the Li family.
"Shen is in charge of the family, go into the hall and sit down, we will immediately take someone to check the reason, if it is the reason of my Li family, my Li family will compensate twice, there is no other word." Shopkeeper Li is sophisticated and calm in the end, and he knows that this kind of thing will first appease the emotions of the buyer.
On the other side, Li Jingfu also waved his hand, ready to let people carry the moldy ink into the house and put it here, it was too ugly.
And at this time, Zhen Niang looked at the Tian family mixed in the surrounding crowd and some other ink people, as well as the gossip people who were almost surrounded by water, and then remembered the rumors that had been circulating recently, knowing that these problems Once Mo entered Mozhuang, there were many things that were difficult to say.
"Dad, the ink is at the door." Zhenniang stopped her father. Then he arched his hand to the crowd outside and said: "Everyone, I want to come to the scene There are a lot of people who understand ink, such a thing, my Li Mo has never appeared since it opened, and now since there is a problem, then it is necessary to investigate, not only my Li family itself checks, but also those who understand ink present can help my Li family to check and find out the reason, my Li family also has a reward." ”
The experience gained in later generations, if there is a problem, it will only become more and more troublesome to hide, and only by making all the problems public is the way to solve it. At this time, Zhenniang did not hesitate to spend money.
In fact, from Zhen Niang's point of view, the situation in front of her is a problem with the materials at a glance.
Speaking of which, this is also her negligence, although at the beginning she emphasized that the materials must be haode, but because the Shen family was in a hurry to this batch of ink, so, before the start of construction, she did not check some materials carefully, and it has always been smooth, she is still a little fluttering.
At this time, she insisted on letting everyone check and issue a reward, which actually showed an attitude of the Li family, and with this attitude, everyone would have more trust in the Li family.
