Chapter 185: Wedding Paintings and Horse Newspapers
Is it really strange to let a businessman worry about the country and the people?
For Guo Dan himself, this is actually not very unusual, because in his understanding, the end point of a businessman is to be involved in politics, intervene in national policies, and even formulate national policies.
Because when your capital accumulates to a certain extent, your every move will affect the country and the people, this is inevitable, not a matter of thinking or not, the behavior of businessmen is closely related to the lives of the people, unless you give up the accumulation of capital, otherwise, you must intervene in the national policy, this is due to interests, since your every move will affect the country and the people, then the policies formulated by the state, will also affect you.
There must be an intersection between the two, so we need to communicate with each other, and the difference is who will lead and who will assist.
It is precisely because of this that the ruling class in feudal society, without exception, chose to suppress the merchants, and everyone knows that the development of the merchants will inevitably affect their dominance, and the profit-seeking nature of the merchants is very hostile to Confucianism.
So in terms of the current system, when your capital accumulates to a certain extent, it is a dead end.
This makes Aunt Xu's words seem strange.
But Aunt Xu didn't know that Guo Dan had long realized this, and he was also groping.
......
"Huh? Have a guest in the house? ”
Guo Dan, who returned home, saw some gifts piled up on the table in the hall, and couldn't help asking.
Kou Zhuansha stepped forward and said, "These gifts were sent by the New Nimbo. ”
"New Nymber?"
Guo Dan thought for a moment and said suspiciously: "We don't seem to have anything to do with Xin Ningbo. ”
"Huh!"
Kou Shouxin stroked his beard and smiled: "The old man knows that the virtuous son-in-law must have forgotten about this." ”
Guo Dan couldn't help but smile awkwardly, but he racked his brains and thought about it for a long time, but he didn't think of what intersection he had with Xin Ningbo, so it can be said that he had no impression at all.
Kou Liansha reminded: "Didn't Husband forget the Qixi online dating? ”
"Tanabata online dating... Oh.... ”
Guo Dan suddenly realized, and looked at Kou Zhuansha in surprise and said, "What does Madam mean ......?" ”
Kou Zhuansha nodded and said, "In this Qixi online relationship, Tan Guoyou, the youngest son of Xin Ningbo, fell in love with the daughter of the Ministry of Industry. Now that the two families have decided on this family business, they have sent these gifts to express their gratitude. This is also the most prominent pair in identity and status among the couples promoted by Qixi online dating. ”
"Really? Then we'll have to make good use of it! "Guo Dan is a big profiteer with bright eyes.
"Utilization?"
The father and daughter of the Kou family looked at Guo Dan at the same time.
You're saying this explicitly, right?
"Uh... I mean, since they fell in love in a Tanabata online dating, then we have to be responsible to the end. Guo Dan said righteously.
"But everyone is already preparing for the marriage, what else can we do?" Kou Shouxin looked at Guo Dan suspiciously.
If you don't get married, you won't be able to publicize it. Guo smiled lightly: "This is a lot, let's talk about this wedding, we can tailor some jewelry and clothing related to Qixi online dating for them." Speaking of this, he rolled his eyes and said quite excitedly: "Not only that, but we also want to paint a wedding picture for them and hang it in their new house." ”
"Wedding paintings?"
Kou Shouxin was stunned and said, "What's it? ”
Guo Dan hurriedly explained: "It is to draw a portrait of the couple as a memorial of their love, and Zhu Lizhi personally wrote it." ”
The elderly Kou Shouxin still didn't seem to understand, but Kou Zhuansha reacted immediately, a flash of surprise flashed in his eyes, he felt that this idea was really wonderful, just thinking about it, he felt extremely attractive, but he immediately frowned and said: "Although the idea of the husband is wonderful, but... But it is written by Zhu Gongzi, but I am afraid that it is inappropriate, because according to the etiquette system, this unmarried woman cannot meet a strange man. ”
Yes! That's a problem. Guo Dan frowned slightly, and said: "Then wait until they get married, and then help them paint, I think this is very memorable, after all, their marriage is not entirely from the orders of their parents and the words of the matchmaker, they should be very moved." ”
"But I think it's avoidable, as long as the woman is allowed to paint, I think they'll agree." ”
Guo Dan sighed: "It's a pity that those painters are all men, and there are no women." Speaking of this, he suddenly rolled his eyes, hugged Kou Zhuan yarn with one hand, and said with a grin: "If you don't want to be a madam, let's be a model, and let Zhu Lizhi help us and my wife draw a picture first." ”
Kou Shouxin comprehended very quickly this time, nodded with a smile, and said, "That's a good idea." ”
Kou Zhuansha's face turned red, moved to the side, glanced at his father shyly, and said softly: "We have already been married, what else do we paint." ”
Kou Shouxin stood up very interestingly, yawned and said, "It's not early, the old man will go back to rest first." ”
As he spoke, he slowly walked out of the hall to the side door, and when he went out, he gave Guo Dan an encouraging look.
Guo Dan comprehended, nodded gratefully, and as soon as Kou Shouxin went out, he stretched out his hand, pulled Kou Zhuan Sha into his arms, and put his hands around her waist, only to feel weak and boneless, he couldn't help but praise secretly, but he said with a smile: "This wedding painting is a commemoration of love, not a wedding painting, I think this time is the most appropriate painting." What does Madame think? ”
Kou Zhuansha tilted her head slightly, moved her gaze away, and after hesitating for a while, she said shamefully: "Let's talk about it." ”
Guo Dan was not reluctant, quickly kissed her on the lips, and said with a smile: "Then it depends on Madame's wishes." ”
Kou Liansha, who was sneak attacked, gently pursed her red lips, and glanced at Guo Dan with shame and anger, but she was charming, and at this moment, it was like an iceberg melting.
This is a fatal temptation.
Guo Dan saw that her eyes were like stars reflected in the water, her eyebrows were like willow leaves, her nose and lips were beautiful, and she couldn't help but move, and she lowered her head and kissed her again.
After half a loud sound, Kou Liansha pushed Guo Dan away with difficulty, panting and said: "You are really, don't look at what kind of place this is, if people see ......" ”
Guo Dan hurriedly said: "Madame is reasonable, then let's go back to the house quickly." ”
Kou Zhuansha snorted: "If you want to go back to yourself, I still have to think about this Qixi online relationship." ”
"Madame doesn't reply, what's the point of me going back alone." Guo Dan sighed, took Kou Liansha's hand again, and said with a smile: "I'll accompany my wife to think about it." ”
Having said that, it was basically Guo Dan who was talking and Kou Zhuansha was listening.
After all, Kou Zhuansha has just experienced the taste of love, how can she figure out how to use love to make profits.
Guo Dan, the old driver, is different, this kind of trick has been thoroughly studied by those capitalists in later generations, and almost no one can avoid it.
The husband and wife sat in the hall and talked until late at night.
Although Guo Dan almost forgot about this, in fact, this Qixi online dating is very important for their tooth line, and there must be no mistakes, not to say how much monetary benefits can be brought to them, it is secondary, mainly to be able to envelop those businessmen, because Qixi online dating can stimulate consumption, and many businessmen can benefit from it, which will make them worry a little more when facing the Kou family, if they offend the Kou family, Qixi online dating will not take them to play.
It's just that in comparison, Marseille is still more important, if the Qixi online dating fails, it is not fatal, if Marseille fails, it is very fatal.
On the second day, Guo Dan came to Wutiao Gun, during this period, Wutiao Gun still continued to print the album of the canonization ceremony and Qixi online love, because Guo Dan's eyes had already shifted to the entire Jiangnan market, as well as Shandong, and he couldn't print a little bit like before, and he had to keep printing, anyway, he didn't have to worry about not being able to sell.
Today, Guo Dan brought a super big order to Wutiao Gun, which may be the largest order ever received by Wutiao Gun, and the profit is also the highest, which is about Marseille.
"Horse newspaper?"
Liu Xinmou, Zhu Lizhi, and Guan Xiaojie all looked at Guo Dan in astonishment.
Guo Dan nodded and said: "We in Marseille are to maintain fairness, justice and openness, in order to ensure this, we must let the customers involved in Marseille know the details of each horse, as well as the status of each race, so I plan to set up a new series in Wutiao Gun, which is dedicated to covering Marseille, and to adopt a combination of pictures and texts, so that everyone has a more intuitive understanding." ”
Liu Xinmou frowned and said: "But the imperial court has always banned non-governmental tabloids, and only the official newspapers are allowed to be issued. ”
Guo smiled lightly: "We only report on Marseille, and we don't talk about anything else, and the imperial court requires us to ensure fairness, justice and openness, so only by publishing Ma Bao can we do this, and there should be no problem." ”
Guan Xiaojie said suddenly: "But I have one request." ”
"What requirements?" Guo Dan asked.
Guan Xiaojie said: "I don't like to draw men, it's so boring, we can specialize in painting women riding horses, I think women wear men's clothes, riding on horses is much better than men riding horses." Later, he had a look in his eyes that only men understand.
Guo Dan's eyes lit up when he heard it, and when he thought about it, it was quite picturesque.
Guan Xiaojie saw that they were silent, but he didn't know that they were all fantasizing, and asked worriedly, "Is it inappropriate?" ”
"No, of course not." Guo smiled lightly: "I think this idea is very good, and it is also in line with the consistent style of our five guns, and it can also prevent everyone from associating with the newspaper." Okay, that's how the posters are drawn, all of them are women, so please leave this matter to Guan Gongzi. ”
Guan Xiaojie grinned: "Don't worry, I will definitely help you do a good job." ”
Guo Dan is not worried about this, because he has seen the paintings of Guan Xiaojie and Zhu Lizhi's cooperation, which are really very beautiful, even more amazing than his original elegance, it can be seen that Guan Xiaojie does have talent in this area, the only drawback is that he wears relatively little, and he does not wear a cotton jacket from the neck down, Guo Dan does not want to cause trouble for the time being, so he has not launched these albums, but the stereotypes have been made.
Those craftsmen are paid so highly, so naturally they will not be idle.
After talking about this, Guo Dan said to Zhu Lizhi again: "In addition, there is another thing that I have to ask Zhu Gongzi." ”
Zhu Lizhi said: "What's the matter? ”
Guo Dan immediately told him the idea of the wedding painting.
Zhu Lizhi's eyes lit up, and he felt that this was quite challenging, and said, "I don't have an opinion, but I think the other party may not agree." ”
Guo Dan nodded and said: "I've also considered this, I've asked Kou Yi to go over there to ask, if you don't agree, then let's talk about it, but we have to train some female painters, so that these problems can be avoided." ”
