"Boss, then I'll tell you straight. You know that I am in the pawn shop in the county town of Changshan County, Yizhou, and the position of the Taishou of Changshan County has been vacant. ”

"Just a few months ago, a young man came to the pawn shop and led a few people to make a picture in the pawn shop. Don't look at the small layout of that painting, but its delicacy is the best in the world, and then I sent someone to send it back to you, and you must have received it. ”

"Just some time ago, there was a report from us in Changshan County, saying that someone had been in the position of Taishou who had been vacant for several years. But we only heard about this, and we haven't confirmed whether it's true or not, and we don't know if it's Taishou-sama. For this matter, we transferred several waves of people to investigate for more than ten days, but there was still no result, and then I withdrew completely. ”

"Of course, we are not for nothing, according to the information of the eyeliner, there are now a lot of people squatting in the Taishou Mansion every day, and there are many people from all sides, and there are people coming and going in the Taishou Mansion every day, the news is definitely true, but there are really few people who know the specific situation of Lord Taishou. Everyone is very curious about what is sacred. ”

"The afternoon before yesterday, a young man in his twenties suddenly came to the shop and asked me to meet and discuss a deal. Later, when I saw him, he bluntly said that he wanted to do a business with the Mi family, and hoped that I could inform the lord of you, you see what this is? ”

Wu Youde said and carefully took out something from his sleeve, and took a closer look at the "Baiyang paper" that Bai Yang had invented not long ago.

Mi Zhu took the paper, looked at it over and over again, and finally said, "Old Wu, what do you mean?" Isn't this just paper? ”

"Master, take a closer look, what is the difference between it and Cai Hou paper?"

"Hmmm! Differences. Wu Youde didn't say that Mi Zhu hadn't paid attention to it, and there was usually a little Caihou paper at home, although Caihou paper was very valuable for ordinary people, even for Wu Youde and others, Caihou paper was also a luxury.

But for the head of the Mi family, although it is a little more expensive, there is still a part of it stored at home. For Mi's firm, the most important thing is money, so I bought some of them, and when necessary, I could give them to officials to contact feelings or seek some benefits.

Mi Zhu looked at the white sun paper in his hand and thought slowly. How to say Cai Hou paper at home, it is much more convenient than ordinary bamboo slips, but it is easy to use, it is average. The overall feeling is particularly hard and thick, and most of them are black-gray or dark gray, only a few light white ones are particularly rare. And there are a lot of impurities, and what is treasured at home is similar to black and gray Caihou paper.

As for the light white, there are also them, but they are relatively small, and the main use is in the palace, and it is impossible to buy it with money, it is a status symbol, and you may not be able to have it if you have money.

Fortunately, I was fortunate enough to see it, and I also had an impression of the light white Caihou paper. When Wu Youde took it out just now, he thought it was the kind of special palace paper, but now that he looks closely, it is still fundamentally different from that kind of paper, or the two are not on the same grade at all.

"This paper, this brightness, how can there be such white paper? Tsk, it's so flexible, and it's so thin and so smooth. Good, good paper! ”

Seeing such a good paper, he couldn't hold back the excitement in his heart, looked at the brush on the side, picked it up and wrote poems casually.

Wu Youde didn't disturb the head of the family's Yaxing, and watched Mi Zhu write with interest.

It didn't take long for Mi Zhu to finish writing, and he picked up the paper with both hands and looked at it.

"Good, good. The paper is not printed at all, and the font is not written like Cai Hou paper, and it will be printed in one piece if it is small. You see, every word of this is clearly visible, and it is dry as soon as it is written, and it has a good ability to absorb ink. Well, it's just a god paper! Elder Wu, tell me quickly, what kind of paper is this? How did it get to you? What the hell is going on? What does this have to do with the Tsuneyama Taishou that you just introduced? ”

Wu Youde was also pleasantly surprised to see Mi Zhu's high evaluation of this paper. It is said that the head of the family also went south and north, and saw a lot of good things, I didn't expect such a good evaluation of the white sun paper, it seems that I came back to see the head of the house this time to do the right thing.

"The head of the family, this is Baiyang paper, from the Taishou Mansion of Changshan County. Yesterday we went upstairs to chat for a while, he showed me the white sun paper, and said that he wanted to cooperate with our Mi family, but the specific situation asked the head of the family to go to Changshan County to contact Lord Taishou in person. ”

"I wondered at first, how could such a good thing fall on us, there are a lot of local chambers of commerce, and there are not no businesses similar to us in the country, why did we choose Mi's."

"After that little brother's explanation, I learned that you may not know that the current Changshan County Taishou is the same son who came to our pawn shop a few months ago to pawn the painting."

"This son's surname is Bai, his single name is Yang, and his words are clear. It looks like he is not very old, but he is very ambitious. At that time, when he first came to Changshan County, because he didn't entangle the ancestral painting, I also felt that this person might have a great job in the future, so I didn't deliberately lower the price when I received the painting. ”

"Now that Taishou Mansion has produced this kind of Baiyang paper, I may feel that our pawn shop has integrity, and there is no such thing as cheating, so Taishou Lord Baiyang personally made a decision to cooperate with our Mi family. However, the specific situation is still up to you to discuss with Lord Taishou to decide, but I estimate that we will also take a small profit, and the majority is still too Shoufu. ”

"Hahahaha...... or say that an old man in the family is like a treasure, that's too right." Mi Zhu was very happy after listening to Wu Youde's words, this business can be said to be an opportunity for Wu Lao to earn for the Mi family, although Wu Lao said that he may not make much money. But Mi Zhu knew how much profit he would make since he saw Baiyang Paper, not to mention giving a little profit, even if he gave a little profit, he also wanted to be high.

As far as his keen eye as a businessman is concerned, this Baiyang paper may eliminate the Caihou paper currently used by the royal family. Of course, the specific situation is still up for debate, after all, there are many reasons that affect the sales of a product. It's like Baiyang paper, if you are priced three or four times higher than Caihou paper, or the output is too low to be effectively mass-produced. In that case, Cai Hou Paper's living space is still very large, after all, it is impossible for everyone to have money.

But no matter how it is, it is an absolutely violent industry, and this kind of industry may give you more than one percent of the profit of many commodities for twenty or thirty percent.

Besides, even if you don't fight for money, as long as you can climb the line of Changshan County Taishoufu, it will be a big hole card for yourself in the future.

Now I'm worried about finding a refuge partner, but I didn't expect that a ready-made one would come in a short time. Now that business is getting worse and worse, the official lords look down on the big businessmen and celebrities from all over the world, and feel that they belong to businessmen, and businessmen seek profits, which is contrary to the teachings of the saints.

Therefore, it is very difficult for Mi's firm to continue to expand in various places, and it is good that it can continue to maintain the status quo now.

But then again, no matter who you take refuge in, this matter is a big deal for the Mi family, you still have to think about it, and examine each other in many ways, it is best to make a decision after recognizing the personality of this Taishou Lord, and now the main thing is to consider cooperating with the other party Baiyang Paper.

"It seems that I will go to the county seat of Changshan County to meet this young Taishou for a while. Last time, his painting brought a lot of benefits to our Mi family, and this time I hope this Taishou can surprise me, hehe. After Mi Zhu finished speaking, he smiled unconsciously.

"Boss, is that painting so useful? That's good, the price was so high that I thought I was afraid of losing money, and it was good to have a big value. Wu Youde was very happy to hear Mi Zhu say that, and from Mi Zhu's nod just now, he saw that the value of that painting for the Mi family was very considerable.

"The owner, in fact, I said a long time ago, why don't we donate an official if we are so rich? As long as the owner wants us to donate a three-public level, it's a breeze. Wu Youde was also full of resentment, as far as he guessed, Bai Yang's position as the Taishou should have been donated after he sold the painting, since he could donate it, why can't the master donate, why do you have to come to them so low now.

"Hehe, do you think our Mi family is not an official? I have donated more than a dozen or so to some of the leaders of the younger generation in our Mi clan. ”

"But they have to have that ability, too! We also donated, and several of them were killed on the way to office, and the rest of them are said to be not low, but they are all puppets? What's the use? The family is in trouble, not to mention whether they can help, several bastards still have the face to come back and ask me for money, a bunch of rice buckets. ”

"Now they almost all wear the symbol of the Mi family, and when their colleagues talk about the fact that they still think about businessmen, they don't want to associate with them. Now don't talk about comparing with the children of the family, even those from poor families are better than them. The more Mi Zhu spoke, the more angry he became, and the table with his two palms "snapped", and finally he felt ready to scold.

Wu Youde saw that he hurriedly added some tea to Mi Zhu and let him take a sip of smooth air.

Mi Zhu slowed down, and after slowing down his tone, he said: "Old Wu, everyone has their own strengths, so they have their own shortcomings. Our Mi family, whether it is the children of the family or the affiliated families, we are all handy in doing business. But if you want to be an official, you really don't have that talent! Officials are not so easy to be, this kind of thing is a great test of a person's comprehensive ability, and if you want to achieve great things, the right time, place and people are indispensable! ”

After Mi Zhu finished speaking, he saw that Wu Youde didn't speak, so he said: "In this way, Wu Lao, the two of us don't have a drink together in a good time, I have just ordered the kitchen to cook a few more dishes, and we will rest when we get drunk at night." Tomorrow morning, let's have a light meal early in the morning and set off with the escort, and strive to get to Changshan County as soon as possible, I am looking forward to meeting this Taishou-sama. ”
