Chapter 122: The ink stinks
"Third grandfather, get ready to enter the game." Carrying the silver, before going out, Zhen Niang said to Cheng San in a thief.
"You want to turn your heart up, so you want Grandpa Cheng to enter the game to help you, the third grandfather is not on your behalf, at this time, your third grandfather and I, sit on the mountain and watch the tiger fight." Old Man Cheng San squinted his eyes and said.
Although the relationship between the Cheng and Li families is good, but after all, they are peers, and the competition between the business shares also exists, before the old man Cheng was anxious for the Li family, one is because the relationship between the two families is good, and the other is because when he was in Huizhou, he was also able to compete with the Tian family, and now he is fighting with the Tian family in Nanjing.
But now that the Li family is fully prepared, Old Man Cheng San is on the sidelines at this time, and he will not intervene too early.
"Third grandfather, don't blame me for not reminding me in the future." Zhen Niang smiled and said,
"Girl, what do you mean?" Grandpa Cheng San watched Zhenniang sell Guanzi and asked angrily.
It's just that Zhenniang has already taken the little girl out of the door, and the two guards of the Yi Housheng helped to deliver the silver. Luo Jiu also followed a few steps.
Zhen Niang's sentence to let Cheng San's grandfather enter the game is not casually, it is because of the Zhu family, in fact, if she hadn't pulled the Zhu family with the ink formula before, the Zhu family would have retreated and withdrawn from the Nanjing market like the Wei family.
At that time, Li Mo withdrew from Nanjing Mo City, and Nanjing Mo City was leaderless, and Zhu Wei was able to gain a firm foothold in Nanjing, but because of the strong rise of Huimo, many merchants went to Huizhou to enter Huimo.
Zhu Wei and other ink industries have been squeezed by the previous running businessmen to live in less and less space, and wait until Li Tian's second family enters Nanjing. It became a straw for Zuihou to tear down several families.
Therefore. The Wei family withdrew early. The Zhu family barely supported it because of the Li family's ink, but this time the Mo side matter was also a big wave of sand, although it was Zhen Niang's intention, but on the Zhu family's side, if it wasn't for Zhen Niang's preparation, the ink formula would also allow the Tian family to go. Things will still happen, and when things break out, I am afraid that the impact on the Zhu family will not be small, and at this time, if the Cheng family intervenes, it will not be able to win the share of the Zhu family.
The Zhu family can also take the opportunity to withdraw from Nanjing Mo City, and like the Wei family, it is not a safe way to return to their hometown for development.
Of course, these virgins will not say it explicitly. It depends on whether Grandpa Cheng San can grasp the opportunity.
Anyway, after this time, the Tian family is afraid that they will no longer be able to take care of her Li family for a while.
"The Zhu family wants to withdraw from Nanjing." When I accompanied Zhenniang out of the house. Luo Jiu said with a clear look, thinking about the angry appearance of the third grandfather of the store, the older the old man is, the more he can't hold his breath.
Although he is not in the ink industry now, he has been in this industry since he was a child, and his eyesight is very poisonous, and he can see the problems of the Zhu family. It's just that the Cheng family has just arrived, so they may not be able to see these clearly.
Zhen Niang Dong Mimi nodded, and then glanced at Luo Jiu, which was also a little unclear.
In fact, Zhen Niang blamed the Cheng family for only sitting on the mountain and watching the tiger fight, so she deliberately didn't say it, but Luo Jiu saw it, Zhen Niang wanted him not to say it, but she felt that she didn't have a reason to ask for this, so Zuihou's eyes had to be meaningless.
Over the years, Luo Wenqian has been able to live like a fish in water in an environment like gold panning in the north, which is naturally unique to people's hearts, but he has seen through Zhen Niang's thoughts.
"This kind of thing, the third grandfather is sure of himself, it's the same if I say it or not." Luo Jiu smiled at Mimi's words.
People like Grandpa Cheng San only believe in their own judgments.
Zhen Niang thought about it, but she was fascinated, and then waved her hand and took someone back to Mozhuang, Luo Jiu watched Zhen Niang and her party enter Mozhuang, and shook her head, this girl, her heart is not big. haha。
"Boy, what do you mean by that girl?" Grandpa Cheng San watched Luo Wenqian come back and sit down, so he asked with a stinky face.
Luo Jiu touched his nose and said innocently: "Third grandfather, how do I know, but I watch, in short, don't just remember to wait and see, inquire more, the city gate is on fire, and the fish in the pond are affected, maybe you happen to be able to catch fish and drink." ”
This kind of promotion is enough, no matter how much, it will be difficult for him to do it.
The old man Cheng San drank the tea, and sighed in his heart, the current juniors, one or two, are like little foxes, and his old man is still selling guanzi, pushing pai gow, and there is no respect for the old and love the young, it is really not ancient.
However, it doesn't matter, whether he enters the game or not, when he enters the game, he has his own calculations and will not be affected by others.
And things turned out as Zhen Niang expected, early the next morning, when Zhen Niang was accompanying the second aunt to have breakfast, she saw Zheng Fuli coming in a hurry, and Li's Mozhuang called people to surround it, all of which were merchants who had ordered before, nothing more than two requirements, one of which was to reduce the price of the Li family, and if the Li family did not lower, they would have to cancel the subscription.
"It's impossible to reduce the price, if you want to return it, give them a refund, and in addition, sort out the merchants who have not returned it." Zhen Niang said to Zheng Fuli, it is also a big wave of sand, Zhen Niang still wants to engage in regional agents, these are important to those merchants who do not unsubscribe.
All kinds of coping methods have been discussed before, so everyone came step by step, and there was no chaos at the door of Zuihou Li's house, and the merchants who came to return the goods were satisfied.
This disappointed Tian Ergongzi, who had always wanted to watch a good show, and his leg, which had been almost healed, hurt again.
"Second brother, it's okay, the eldest brother has never been able to please Li Zhenniang in that hand, and now, it's good to be like this." Tian Ronghua couldn't see his second brother's grinning appearance on the side, so he said coldly.
"Hey, that's because the eldest brother has no ability, if it weren't for Luo Wenqian's kid to help Li Zhenniang this time, it would be difficult for the Li family to escape, and the Li family would have to shed their skin. Hey, this surnamed Luo, I really didn't see it in Huizhou at the beginning, but he actually got out of this situation, it's a pity. Tian Er pouted, no one knew what he was sorry for.
on the pier.
Wang Minghe is loading goods and preparing to go to the capital.
"Brother Minghe, why are you still loading goods here, don't you know, now everyone has gone to return the goods. The Tian family's ink is half cheaper than the Li family's. "A few runners who were returning the goods and ordering goods to Tian's house and eating wine were passing by the wharf. I saw Wang Minghe who was loading the goods.
Wang Minghe was the runner who got Zhen Niang's medicine ink and later used someone else's invitation to participate in the opening banquet of Li's Ink Village. Since the opening of the banquet, he is the first runner to get the ink of the Li family, and in the past two months, with the ink, he has really made a profit.
The Tian family also got out of the ink, and fought with the Li family about the price reduction, Wang Minghe naturally heard about it, but he just had a dead reason. First, doing business, reputation-based, you can't ask to cancel because of the Tian family's price reduction. Of course, the main thing is that he thinks that the Tian family's price reduction is also a short-term behavior, and it will rise in the future, and if he unsubscribes, he will offend the Li family to death. There is no need to offend people to death. In the final analysis, it is just a batch of goods, and it is enough to make less money.
Secondly. He also believes in a fortune, his fortune started because of the Li family's medicine, and he recognized the Li family, he naturally will not return this batch of goods, of course, business can not suffer, so, after he returns from this batch of goods to the capital, he will talk to the Li family and strive for more discounts, and the Li family should agree.
So Wang Minghe just smiled, didn't answer, and continued to load the goods.
When those people saw Wang Minghe like this, they didn't say much, and made fun of a few stupid words, and then left slowly, and some were thinking about it, now that Wang Minghe's cost of goods is high, will they order another batch of ink from the Tian family and send it to the capital, maybe they can grab Wang Minghe's share.
So, all kinds of calculations.
And no matter what other people's calculations are, the Li family is the one who should return the goods, and at the same time, they are still producing ink step by step. I heard that the warehouse is full of goods.
This is really a little incomprehensible, there is a lot of gossip behind the scenes, I don't know what the Li family is going to do?
It was Han Yigui and Hu Zonglin who both came to ask.
It's July in the blink of an eye, and the weather is even hotter and hotter.
The price war of the Tian family once again made the two Li and Zhu ink villages enter a state of being a bird. However, because of the donation of ink by the Li family some time ago, some students of the academy now come to Mozhuang from time to time, and sometimes they will buy one or two ingots of good ink, or several people will buy a letter together. Judging from everyone's reactions, the high-end ink of the Li family is still relatively recognized.
It's a good progress.
Of course, most of the time there are no people in the store.
Idle, Zhen Niang moved a stool to sit at the door to enjoy the cool, the whole official street, ventilated at both ends, there is an old locust plant a few steps away from the roadside, sitting in the shade of the tree, the cool breeze is cooler than sitting in the house, the house is always a little stuffy.
Under the shade of the trees, a few people chatted without answering.
At this moment, I saw some people carrying a box of things, walking forward with a dejected face, but after passing by, the smell left behind was indestructible.
"What's that, it stinks?" The people who were taking advantage of the cold on the side of the road covered their noses one by two.
"What's that? It's the Tian family's ink, this is really cheap and not good, the ink sold by the Tian family is stinky, how can it be sold if it is so stinky, I want to come to the Tian family to ask for an explanation, and it has been less than half a month since I bought this ink. The few people who carried the goods were obviously guys, and when they heard the questions of others, they said with a look of indignation.
Only the proprietor who walked in front looked at the signboard of Li's Mozhuang with a look of remorse, and then said to the guy behind him with a dark face: "Just talk too much, hurry up." ”
Hearing the urging of the owner, a few guys didn't say much, and carried a few baskets of ink towards Tian's ink village.
And on the side of the people who heard this, some people jumped up: "Oh, this smell turned out to be ink smelly, I also bought a few bottles at home some time ago, these two days also taste a smell at home, but the first few days, the mother-in-law at home said that there are many mice, sprinkled some rat poison at home, I still think it is the smell of dead mice, these days have been rummaging through the cabinets looking for dead mice, but I didn't find one, I didn't expect it to be ink smelly, no, I'll go home to see." ”
After the man finished speaking, he hurried away, and at this time, several more people went to Tian's house with ink.
The situation of Tianjia ink, Zhen Niang has long been aware of it, although she is not sure of Zeng Yipin's intentions that day, but the prevention must be prevented, and Zhen Niang implements the method of loose outside and tight inside, the surface process of ink making, Zhen Niang is seen by Zeng Yipin, but the anti-corrosion and anti-heavy material she used to refine the alchemy tool is Zhen Niang added to the glue, this piece has always been in the hands of Zhen Niang alone, even Zheng Fuli is not very clear. Of course, there is another person in Mozhuang who knows, that is, Ergou, on the same day, Zhenniang made a contract with the Zhu family, and she was supposed to hand over the additive to the Zhu shopkeeper on the spot, but she was a little worried that the Tian family would get the formula from the Zhu family, so she sent Ergou to go.
Of course, she mentioned this to Zhu Guiyan, but she didn't tell Zhu Gui too clearly, Zhu Gui only knew that the Li family kept a hand, and this situation is also common, Zhu Gui didn't care too much, as long as the ink produced was fine.
That is to say, only three people know about additives, Zhen Niang, Huang's, Ergou, as for Zhu Gui, he only knows that there is one hand, but he doesn't know what it is.
And the second dog got the advice of Zhenniang, so he naturally knew the importance of this additive, and the prevention was very strict.
He was raised by the ugly woman since he was a child, in fact, he is similar to the Li family, and he is very righteous, and he is also very safe in this regard, which is why Zhen Niang dared to give him this task.
In addition, not only in the additives, but also in the formula, Zhen Niang has also made certain adjustments, increasing the proportion of indigo, making the ink color darker and brighter, but indigo is perishable, although there is a medicinal borneol in the ink formula, which is used for embalming, but Zhenniang has aggravated the proportion of alcohol. In this way, there will be a stimulating effect, so that the ink glue is more perishable, and it is the height of summer, so it is strange that the ink does not smell.
And the home's own ink is not a problem because of the addition of antiseptic additives.
Now, after waiting for so many days, Tian Mo's matter has finally happened, thinking about it, the Tian family has already discovered it in the past few days, after all, the ink that was first made has been a month now, and the ink can be kept for a month.
Haha, next, it's enough for the Tian family to drink a pot, Zhen Niang has to be busy, there is a problem with the Tian family's ink, and it is when her Li family's ink sells well.
As for the third grandfather of the Cheng family, he frequently invited Zhu Gui to eat and drink during this time, and it seemed that he also wanted to take the opportunity to take down the Zhu family, but it was a pity that the third grandfather was one step slower, if he intervened when she reminded him, the price of the Zhu family's Mozhuang would be lower, and now, it is not possible for the third grandfather Cheng to take down the Zhu family Mozhuang without some blood.
After all, although Zhu Gui knew that the Li family had left a hand, he heard that the formula was stolen by Zeng Yipin from the Li family, so how could he still have the bottom in his heart? At that time, it must have been Mozhuang who could shoot early, but now, Tianjia Mozhuang has happened, and he is a fool who knows how to raise the price, not to mention that they are all veterans of the ink industry.
None of them are willing to suffer. (To be continued......)
