Chapter 459: Developing Porcelain
When the other county magistrates heard the news, they also came here to ask the two for advice.
"I'm from the next county, and our whole country is short of food all year round, and I heard that you have made many people eat white rice, so we all want to ask you for advice." The county magistrate next door said to the two people in front of him very respectfully, for fear of refusing.
"My lord, you are polite, working for the benefit of the people of the world has always been what the two of us want to do, I will compile some of the points we have involved into a booklet, you can take it back, if you don't understand anything, you can come back and ask me."
Du Ruonan showed the booklet prepared by the people to the people in front of him, and his eyes were full of relief, and it was a blessing for the people to have such parents and officials.
Because of the fame of this matter, many grandfathers from other counties also came, and for a while, the workshop was full of people, and Du Ruonan and Su Zhiyu were very busy every day.
"Ruonan, these people, it's really a bit difficult to teach. But I finally felt the master's sense of accomplishment, and I was quite happy to see those simple faces. ”
Su Zhiyu never knew that people could be so kind, thinking that under the big dye vat of modern society, people are selfish and affectionate.
The two of them finally got a day off, but they didn't have the heart to go out, and the two of them were now thinking about the poor people, so they came to the backyard together to watch the growth of the grain.
"Zhiyu, do you feel that the current life is very fulfilling, I used to think that as long as I do my family's business well and pass on the craft, it would be good, but now I understand that sometimes it is a very happy thing to be able to help others, those people look at me so grateful, I can't live up to them."
Su Zhiyu hugged the woman in front of him in his arms, and then gently lifted the broken hair in his ear, "I know, I know that you are tired sometimes, and I know that many times you are reckless, but Ruonan, although you go forward, I am behind." ”
The two hugged each other tightly, and along the way, they had experienced ups and downs, but as Su Zhiyu said, just go forward boldly, with him behind them.
When the two of them finished their lunch, a holy decree came from the palace to let the two of them go into the back.
The emperor felt a little guilty when he saw the two people who were obviously thinner than before, these two people were obviously not their people of Tao Zhiguo, but they did more than anyone in Tao Zhiguo.
"You two look a lot thinner, I really owe you, I came this time to give you two titles, I hope you two don't shirk it again."
Su Zhiyu frowned, he didn't like this feeling of being burdened by others on him, so he opened his mouth to refuse, "We are willing to help these people because we have a benevolent heart, as for the title and official position, it is all something outside the body, and we don't care." ”
The emperor had long expected that the two would refuse, so he took out a stack of memoranda and the people's papers.
"Look at it, these are what the people ask me to give you, I know that you don't want to be bound by these rules and regulations, so I just give you rights and titles, as for the rules, it doesn't matter, and in order to know that the people can feel at ease, don't refuse again."
After the two saw those documents, they were quite moved, some of those people were illiterate, and their handwriting was crooked, but they wanted the two of them to get the respect they deserved, and a warm current spread from the hearts of the two people.
However, since he has entered the palace, Du Ruonan plans to observe the surrounding problems during this time, and give some suggestions to the emperor in front of him.
"Your Majesty, during this period of time, we found that there is a big transaction problem in Tao Zhi, all the trade in the entire Tao Zhi country is only ceramics, and even anything else that can be handled, this monotonous trade route is not conducive to the grasp of the people and the officials and businessmen as a whole, so although everyone here, including the poor people, has a lot of money, but they can't buy anything and just put it there coldly."
The emperor listened carefully to the woman, and felt that this woman was really talented, this question had actually been thought about before, but because the ancestors had been passed down like this for generations, it was really difficult to reform.
"Du Ruonan, it's just that every thing that can be traded has to withstand the precipitation of time, if it is just for the sake of diversification and desperate enrichment at the beginning, it will only waste money and manpower, and finally lose the treasury."
Su Zhiyu took out a topographic map, and then pointed to the two colors on it, "Your Majesty, you see, every country is different, we can export our ceramics to other countries, so that we can exchange them for more favorable goods, so that both countries will benefit." ”
The emperor lowered his head and pondered, and he didn't make a decision for a long time, "This matter, Rong Zhen will think about it again, you haven't eaten yet, stay in the palace at night." ”
The two rushed back to the workshop with the first light of the next morning.
"Hurry up, if the sun gets too much, these cloths won't be formed." Du Ruonan said to Su Yang while collecting the strips of cloth.
The two returned to the house after being busy, looked at each other, and suddenly laughed.
"How's that, let's talk about it?" Su Zhiyu felt that the two of them must have been ruthlessly tied with several red ropes by Yue Lao in their previous lives, why did their thoughts coincide so much every time.
Du Ruonan also laughed.
The two shouted in unison, "Export ceramics!" "Dream Chinese
Then the two of them pointed at each other's noses and laughed, it feels really good, you don't have to say anything, that person understands you.
The two found those ceramic factories with relatively fertile land, and then relied on this prestige in Taozhi to divide the method of each family to produce soil and which one to burn porcelain, and then unify and make a profit together.
"Zhiyu, next to Yang Guo is next to him, why don't we go there, maybe this will become the first business we negotiate."
"Okay, but we selected some ceramics to bring them directly, which can make a lot of manpower and energy."
The local people expressed their reluctance when they saw that the two were leaving, "Where are you two going, our people here regard the two as reborn parents, if we really want to leave, we will definitely take out the best things in the family and give them to the two." ”
Du Ruonan smiled and waved his hand, "We plan to take away some of your porcelain in better condition, and then take it to Yang Guo, but it will definitely not let you lose money, we will divide it into four or six, if you trust me, I will choose to buy your porcelain immediately." ”
Those people naturally trusted incomparably and said that they could give Du Ruonan porcelain for free, but Du Ruonan still shirked and took the initiative to bear the price.
Yang Guo.
"Everyone come and take a look, this is Tao Zhiguo's famous porcelain, the quality is good and bad, take a look at it and don't need money, everyone come and take a look." Du Ruonan shouted desperately at the ceramics in his hand.
But the men just glanced at it hurriedly, and then walked forward again, and did not sell a single one in the morning.
"Ruonan, let me come in the afternoon, you can't shout like this, we have to find the customer's position first."
Su Zhiyu came to the restaurant, directly asked Xiao Er to see the boss, and then discussed with the old class.
"I know your tavern business is the best in the city, so now I can give you the icing on the cake, do you do it or not?"
"But the price of your shot is very high, what if we lose money? Although we have a lot of dividends in the past year, we can't squander them like this. ”
In the end, Su Zhiyu was willing to sell a batch of porcelain in advance, advertise it for free in the restaurant, and if he could sell more wine, he would start to buy these.
"Zhiyu, there are really yours, so there will be a lot of people who know about our porcelain here, but as for whether they will buy it, it is not certain."
"What's so difficult about this, as long as anything becomes a trend, someone will definitely follow the trend to buy, what we have to do now is the brand effect, forget it, you don't understand what you say now, you just do what I say."
Du Ruonan rolled his eyes helplessly, but Su Zhiyu did achieve the effect that the two expected, the people of Yang Kingdom saw such exquisite porcelain, and they were amazed, the business of the restaurant was even more popular, and the flow of people in the restaurant was very large, and Tao Zhiguo ceramics had become an emerging trend.
The two sold the first batch of ceramics they had brought with them at a very high price, and then happily returned to Tao Chi Province.
"Miss Du, you two are back, and the big guys miss you very much." Among these people, a middle-aged man with the ability to take the lead is spoken.
When Du Ruonan got down from the carriage, he heard the cheers of these people, and his heart couldn't be calm for a long time.
"The people you provided me with ceramics last time, I brought a price sixty percent higher than your cost this time to give back to you, and if you are willing to continue to provide, I promise it will only be higher."
Those people were dumbfounded when they heard this, how could their ceramics be so valuable, even a full sixty percent higher than the profit.
Because most of the people in Tao Zhi went to buy rice seedlings, the balance in the hands of the people is not very sufficient, so that they have enough capital to solve the food problem and improve their quality of life.
"Miss Du, we didn't expect you to be so powerful, a few of us are going to provide you with ceramics, I hope you can lead our big guys to live a better life."
As this matter spreads, more and more people are willing to provide ceramics, and Du Ruonan is willing to buy ceramics regardless of the quality of the ceramics, and every family has a very happy life.
"Zhiyu, I plan to refine the types and uses of these ceramics, and there will be a gap between the rich and the poor anywhere, and we don't have to consider the quality of ceramics too finely......"
Su Zhiyu heard the woman in front of her keep talking about ceramics, every step was for the people, and thinking of the neglect she had received during this time, she threw the woman down, and then kissed her.
"Du Ruonan, I see that you have drifted away during this time, and you have forgotten what your own man is like."
