Chapter 0345 - Big Strokes
Li Jian and Wang Yunsheng insisted on their own words, and they quarreled endlessly in the court, but it was difficult to figure out who was right and who was wrong.
In the end, in the midst of Kou Zhun's reprimand, the matter was over.
Kou Zhun warned the hundred officials in court that this incident would not be allowed to happen again in the future.
At the same time, he also ordered the secretary to draft a document to clarify the matter to the people and prevent the people from following suit.
After the next dynasty.
Wang Yunsheng happily found Kou Ji.
"Shangguan, the imperial court has handed over the errand of measuring the field to us."
Kou Ji glanced at him and said, "You want to fish for oil and water?" ”
Wang Yunsheng saw that there was no joy on Kou Ji's face, his heart suddenly jumped, and he smiled dryly: "How come? Xia Guan is by no means that kind of person. ”
Kou Ji didn't bother to dismantle him, but just reminded him, "I'll leave this matter to you to be solely responsible." But you have to remember one thing. Don't let your men reach out to the people.
If anyone stretches out his hand to the people, he stretches out his hand and chops his hand, stretches out his foot, and stomps his foot.
As for the big families, you are free.
As long as it is not excessive, the official will not ask. ”
When Wang Yunsheng heard this, a flash of joy flashed in his eyes, but he didn't show it, but bowed to Kou Ji with a sincere face and said, "Shangguan really cherishes Li Min." ”
Kou Ji rolled his eyes and said, "The official is just afraid of those people below, his hand stretched too long, forced the people, and was beaten to death in the field. When the time comes, it won't end well, not to mention, you and I will have to be implicated. ”
When Wang Yunsheng heard this, he looked embarrassed.
Kou Ji didn't continue to talk to Wang Yunsheng.
He waved his hand and left the Donghua Gate first.
After returning home, I simply ate some food, and then went out of Bianjing City and went to inspect the construction site outside Bianjing City.
After confirming that nothing had happened, Kou Ji turned around and went to Jiaozipu.
The copper coins minted by the Jiangling Coin Casting Workshop were transported to Bianjing City along the waterway on the fourth day after the flood receded, and are now piled up in the temporary warehouse of Jiaozipu.
After Kou Ji arrived, he was greeted by Mu Chong.
Lu Ming went to the pile sealing warehouse.
Kou Ji paid a price of 50,000 yuan a year and rented more than a dozen warehouses from the imperial court.
Lu Ming was in charge of handing over.
Qian Le went to buy hemp and wool to prepare for the textile workshop that was built later.
Meng Weizhong went to raise food, after the beginning of spring next year, the imperial court will cut off the food supply of the displaced people, Kou Ji, Mu Chong and others continue to raise a batch of grain that is enough to support the spring grain harvest to supply the displaced people.
"Kougong Ministry!"
Mu Chong bowed his hand to Kou Ji and invited Kou Ji into Jiaozipu.
After the two of them sat down.
Kou Ji took out a drawing from his sleeve and handed it to Mu Chong.
Mu Chong stared at the drawings with his eyes as if he had seen a peerless beauty, and said with some excitement: "Three ingots...... Diagram of the manufacture of a three-spindle pedal spinning wheel? ”
Kou Ji nodded and said with a smile: "Yes, the manufacturing diagram of the three-spindle bicycle." ”
Mu Chong smiled brightly and picked up the manufacturing diagram of the three-spindle pedal spinning wheel, and said, "The Kou Gong Department is really a believer. ”
Kou Ji smiled indifferently, asked the little guy at the door for a cup of tea, and said with an indifferent smile while drinking: "What I promised you, I naturally have to give it to you." After all, if you don't get the benefits, wouldn't you be sorry for your identity as a businessman?
Besides, I don't need to worry about you running away after you take something. ”
Mu Chong asked people to take a delicate box, carefully put the drawings in it, and then took a box with a unique style, put the box in, locked a small lock, put away the key, and then smiled at Kou Ji: "This is naturally ......"
Kou Ji glanced at the chic box twice, and said with a smile: "Waterproof and moisture-proof? ”
Mu Chong grinned and said, "The Kou Gong Department is really as wise as a torch. ”
Kou Ji laughed and said, "Don't make a fool...... Take your stuff, don't lose it. ”
When Mu Chong heard this, he said solemnly: "I will keep it, and I will never lose it." ”
Kou Ji smiled: "I'm not afraid that it will be lost, the main reason is that Qian Le and Meng Weizhong haven't seen it yet, if they really lose it, you won't be able to explain it to the two of them." ”
Mu Chong couldn't help but laugh and said: "This is the foundation of my three families, even if you lose me, it can't be lost." ”
Kou Ji pondered for a moment and smiled, "You don't need to take it too seriously. ”
Mu Chong was stunned for a moment, and said in amazement: "Silk is the foundation of our three families, and this thing is the key to increasing silk production, how can I not value him." ”
Kou Ji shook his head and said, "I'm afraid that you will guard it as a treasure." ”
Mu Chong looked at Kou Ji with a strange expression.
The three-spindle pedal spinning wheel was something that could make them rich, how could he not keep it as a treasure.
Kou Ji seemed to see what Mu Chong was thinking, and laughed in a low voice: "In the world, there are not many secrets that can be kept. As long as you use it, you will inevitably be targeted by others.
This thing is not your recipe for dyeing cloth, so you can't hide it at all.
If people snoop carefully, sooner or later they will be able to find out the secrets.
When the time comes, people can imitate it. ”
Mu Chong said seriously: "I naturally understand this truth, but it can be hidden for a while, it is a moment." If you can seize a head start, you can occupy a lot of silk buying and selling business.
Even if they snooped on it, they would have to follow us and eat the ashes. ”
Seeing that Mu Chong still didn't understand the meaning of his words, Kou Ji said frankly: "I mean, let you pass this thing on." ”
Mu Chong's eyes narrowed in astonishment.
He felt that Kou Ji was crazy.
Something crucial, it's too late to keep it, how can it be passed out.
When Kou Ji saw Mu Chong's reaction, he guessed Mu Chong's thoughts, he pointed to the box in Mu Chong's hand and said, "Actually, this thing is also a business.
If you do it properly, you can sell it for a lot of money just by making this picture.
If you extend it a little further, you can also build a workshop to make three-spindle pedal spinning wheels and sell them out. ”
Mu Chong exclaimed: "How can it be done, even if you want to sell it, you have to wait until others discover the mystery of the three-spindle pedal spinning wheel before you can sell it." ”
Kou Ji frowned and said, "Do you think that the three-spindle pedal spinning wheel is the limit of the spinning wheel?" ”
Mu Chong was stunned for a moment, his eyes rolled for a while, and he stared at Kou Ji and said, "You can't have anything better, right?" ”
Kou Ji didn't hide it, nodded and said, "There are still many spindles ...... spinning wheels."
Mu Chong's eyes widened in stunned.
He wanted to scream, he wanted to curse.
He and Qian Le finally spent a lot of money to get three spindles of pedal spinning wheel production drawings from Kou Ji, thinking that this was a good thing, and they could use it to dominate the cloth industry, but they didn't expect Kou Ji to have something better.
The word 'multi-spindle' alone is enough to prove that the value of multi-spindle spinning wheel far exceeds that of three spindles.
"You want to curse, right?"
Kou Ji stared at Mu Chongxiao with a smile and asked.
Mu Chong smiled bitterly and shook his head.
He wants to scold, but does he dare to scold?
Kou Ji smiled: "Don't blame me, the craftsmen in my house are skilled enough, after they made the three-spindle pedal spinning wheel, they felt that there was still room for improvement, and began to study the multi-spindle spinning wheel."
Craftsmanship is like this, it will continue to move forward and replace with people's needs.
It's not that you don't know the craft, just the spinning wheel, from the Qin and Han dynasties to the present, it has been replaced several times, you know it in your heart.
In the past, not many people cared about these things.
Therefore, many good crafts, even if they appear, will gradually disappear because no one pays attention to them.
But now it is different, the official is in charge of the Ministry of Works, and he knows the benefits of craftsmanship, and he will definitely vigorously encourage craftsmen to create more and more useful things.
So a lot of new crafts are constantly emerging, that's inevitable. ”
Kou Ji knocked on the table and said with a smile: "As long as our craftsmanship is always ahead of the curve, and the new craftsmanship is always our first use, others can only look at our backs."
We can use new craftsmanship and sell old craftsmanship at the same time.
In this way, when we change to a new craft, it means that we don't spend any money.
Not only that, but you can also make a lot of money. ”
When Mu Chong heard Kou Ji's words, his head couldn't turn a little.
Kou Ji's words were obviously beyond his inherent thinking in doing business.
Seeing Mu Chong lowering his head and constantly thinking about where, Kou Ji didn't say anything more, but looked at him with a smile.
After a long time.
Mu Chong raised his head, and said with a cloudy face: "I can't be the master of this matter alone, I have to wait for Qian Le and Meng Weizhong to come back and discuss it together." ”
How feasible Kou Ji's words are, whether they can work, whether they can make a lot of money with this, Mu Chong is a little uncertain, and he can't make up his mind.
He needs to discuss it with Qian Le and Meng Weizhong.
Hearing this, Kou Ji nodded, and said with a smile: "Actually, I just provided you with a convenient way to make money. You don't have to rush to conclusions.
But once you decide to use it, don't lose my share. ”
Mu Chong hesitated for a moment and nodded.
They had already paid a great price to get the three-spindle pedal spinning wheel, and he didn't want to give Kou Ji a penny when he sold the three-spindle pedal spinning wheel.
However, considering that Kou Ji had a group of skilled craftsmen in his hands, who could always innovate and make better spinning wheels, he dispelled this thought.
If he was for a little profit, he left Kou Ji behind.
If Kou Ji had built a better spinning wheel, he could have left them behind.
When the time comes, it will be them who will lose the most.
Kou Ji nodded hesitantly when he saw Mu Chong, and smiled knowingly.
Mu Chong's little bit of caution couldn't hide from him.
But just like this, it shows that Mu Chong can cooperate.
Mu Chong, a businessman, if he behaves selflessly and is not greedy for any money, then Kou Ji will have to guard against him.
Kou Ji smiled at Mu Chong and said, "This time, in addition to giving you the three of you three spindle pedal spinning wheel production drawings, there is one more thing I want to tell you." ”
Mu Chong was puzzled: "But what about the opening of Jiaozi Shop?" ”
Kou Ji nodded and said, "Yes, Jiaozipu has been preparing for a long time, and now everything is ready, and it is time to open." ”
Mu Chong nodded and said, "If it weren't for the big flood outside the city, Jiaozipu might have opened." ”
Kou Ji smiled indifferently: "Not bad...... But before Jiaozi Shop opens, there is one more thing you three have to do. ”
Mu Chong was puzzled: "What's the matter?" ”
Kou Ji said bluntly: "Raise all the money you can use, and wait until the day when Jiaozipu opens, and transport it to Jiaozipu for storage." ”
When Mu Chong heard Kou Ji's words, his face changed again and again.
He felt that Kou Ji's opening of Jiaozi Shop was fake, and it was true that he had scavenged the money in their hands.
Kou Ji wanted to take the opportunity to coax them to transport all the money in his hand to Bianjing City, and then take it for himself?
Seeing that Mu Chong's expression was wrong, Kou Ji raised his eyebrows slightly, and said, "Are you afraid?" ”
Mu Chong's face was ugly and said, "There is no ......"
Kou Ji said in a deep voice: "Your money is transported to Bianjing City, and then transported to Jiaozipu, all of which will be handed over by your people, and I can not interfere." After three days, you can also carry away as much as you have brought over.
I wouldn't ask either.
Not only that, but in order to reassure you, I can hand over the millions of Song coins newly minted by Kou Mansion to you for transportation.
You only need to re-transport the money from the Kou Mansion to the Treasury of the Sealing Warehouse after the matter is settled. ”
When Mu Chong heard this, his expression eased a lot.
He didn't refuse this matter for the sake of pretending to be atmospheric.
Instead, he asked tentatively, "You won't blame us, will you?" ”
Kou Ji said lightly: "Since I want to cooperate with you, I have to dispel your doubts and fears. It is very dangerous for you, but not for me. ”
Mu Chong let out a sigh of relief, nodded and said, "Then listen to you." ”
After a pause, Mu Chong hesitated: "The new money of the Kou Mansion, plus our money, I am afraid it will exceed 10 million yuan." Such a huge amount of money is transported into Bianjing City, and it will definitely be remembered by many people.
Tree Move...... Aren't we too high-profile. ”
Kou Ji shook his head and said: "Don't be high-profile, how can we let the people in Bianjing City and the whole world know that I have money in Jiaozi Shop?" If they don't know that there is money in my Jiaozi shop, how dare they deposit their hard-earned money in my Jiaozi shop?
Not only that, but this move will attract the attention of everyone in Bianjing City, and they will help us spread the reputation of our Jiaozipu all over the world.
At that time, we will be promoting Jiaozipu, which will be much easier.
The savings of our Jiaozi shop will also increase exponentially in a very short period of time. ”
Kou Ji's words are reasonable, with a lot of money, attracting everyone's attention is indeed a good way to make a name for yourself.
Tens of millions of dollars are impossible for the imperial court to take out easily.
If they take out so much money at one time, they will definitely be recognized by the merchants and people in the world.
And scramble to help them make a name for themselves.
It's just that......
"We are so fanfare, the wealthy families in Bianjing City will inevitably target us, and when the time comes, they will take the opportunity to fight the autumn wind, or make a stumbling block...... How can we respond? ”
Kou Ji pouted and said: "This Great Song Dynasty, and that wealthy family, can it be compared to the palace?" ”
