Chapter 18 Profiting Greatly The time is ripe
Exquisite appearance, carpet publicity, hunger marketing, and a series of means directly beat the fame of Taozhou Shiyan out. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć ļ½ļ½ļ½ļ½
And that's not all!
At the end of the year, according to the rules and conventions, at the end of each year, the local assassins must pay tribute to the central government to show their gratitude. Tributes don't need to be precious, but they must be local specialties.
On this day, Li Longji received a tribute from Taozhou, which was the boiling Tao inkstone, or the treasure inkstone carved by Zheng Yongtai and made by Feng Wei, which was the best quality in the first batch of Tao inkstones.
Li Longji is not a good inkstone, but he likes calligraphy, and his calligraphy is majestic, rich, and thick. And the Tao Yan ink set prepared by Pei Min for him is first-class, coupled with Zheng Yongtai's knife work and Tao Yan's unique emerald green, which is beautiful and generous. Compared with the common pitch-black inkstone, the appearance is a lot higher, which makes its dragon face happy, and praises: "Fengyi gets Taozhou green, as strong as bronze and jade", and then personally ordered: After the expiration of the three-year tax exemption, Taozhou is allowed to replace the tax with inkstone.
The king's love and the praise of Shilin writers have invisibly raised the style of Tao Yan to a higher level, and it is better than She Yan, and it is as famous as Duan Yan. You must know that Duan Yan has a history of 100 years, but Tao Yan is only more than a month.
Except for the Tao Yan in Li Longji's hand, the remaining Jiufang Tao Yan was sold at a high price within one day, and the transaction price was far above the Duan Yan.
Tao Yan Fang has just been produced, the inventory is insufficient, and the output is limited, which is far from enough to meet the demand. The Taoshui strange stone shop sells in a predetermined way, and there is no possibility of buying Tao Yan without preemptive ordering, making Tao Yan priceless.
Human nature has been cheap since ancient times, the more difficult it is to get something, the more people are hard to pursue, and Tao Yan orders have accumulated thousands of dollars.
Pei Min was a little unexpected, but he was already prepared to deal with it, recruiting Gu Gong as Qiao Feng, expanding the manpower of quarrying workshops, inkstone workshops, and stone carving workshops, and at the same time arranging astute apprentices who were responsible for learning to make inkstones and carving stones, so as to cultivate their own talents.
In response to the needs of the market, Pei Min divided Taoyan into three grades:
One of the Tao inkstones is based on the strange stones excavated from the old pit of Taoshui, and then carved by Zheng Yongtai or his disciples, and then polished by experienced craftsmen such as Feng Wei, which is a luxury and is worth a thousand gold;
The second Tao inkstone is expensive, made of high-quality inkstone, carved by Zheng Yongtai's carving master, in order to be beautiful, as for the polishing is a skilled master, facing the group of customers who give gifts and collect.
Again, it is an ordinary Tao inkstone, which is dominated by normal readers in the world. The material, polishing, etc. will naturally be inferior before, but the quality is a little better than the end inkstone on the market.
Pei Min is well aware of the brand effect, no matter what, he has to suppress Duan Yan to achieve greater convenience for Tao Yan.
It is not only Tao Yan that rises together with Tao Yan, but also Tao Shui Strange Stone is also known to the world under the influence of Tao Yan's red fire.
The colorful Taoshui strange stone has become the new favorite of the rich and noble people in Chang'an, they pave the road with the Taoshui strange stone, repair the pond with the Taoshui strange stone, and carve the rockery with the Taoshui strange stone, which is particularly popular.
In order to meet the needs of the market, the quarrying workshop and the stone carving workshop recruited 1,000 workers in one go.
The three major workshops of quarrying workshop, inkstone making workshop and stone carving workshop have solved the livelihood problems of nearly 6,000 people in Taozhou, and together with their families, 10,000 people no longer have to worry about food and clothing. You must know that the total population of Taozhou is only 33,000 people......
Not only that, Pei Min directly gave up the agriculture of Taozhou, and the food in Taozhou was transported from the surrounding areas, which led to the development of the rice and grain industry.
Quarrying, making inkstones, and carving stones are hard technical work, and Pei Min has the intention of driving the whole down to make a fortune together, and he gives a lot of salary. The people have surplus money, and the catering industry and clothing have also risen, and half of the people in Taozhou have been able to be self-sufficient.
In the face of such a situation, Pei Min comprehensively launched a cash-for-work program, not to help the people for free, so as not to raise the inertia of the people: if you want to eat, you must pay for the labor, and it is a reasonable and effective policy to pay and earn.
Pei Min's SF Dart Bureau also officially hung up the signboard, Mu Cong, Mu Ling, the two descendants of Kongtong Death, are quite famous in Kongtong Mountain, and invited three good players from Kongtong Mountain to join, plus their respective disciples, SF Dart Bureau started with more than 60 dart masters, and the strength is not small.
The dart master has the rules of the dart master, Pei Min has never killed a pig, but he has seen a pig run: as the ancestor of the dart board, he personally set the rules for the dart board, the first is the six precepts of the dart: one is to live in the newly opened store; 2. Quitting the shop that changes hands; 3. Stay in the shop of prostitutes; The four precepts are to leave the body; The five precepts are separated from people; The six precepts ignore doubts.
Immediately made another internal public speech, in the face of the first batch of rookies who entered the industry, Pei Min told them like a river: "Our dart master must have a martial and honest spirit of helping others." At all times, the protection of the life of the employer's goods must be the first priority. Let your employers feel that you will always be the most secure person for them, their waist pole, their talisman, as long as you are by their side, their lives and property will be safe, and their business will prosper. Remember, we must walk the rivers and lakes with three points of laughter, let three points of reason, and not use force to oppress people. However, it is necessary to abide by the principle and put the protection of the employer's personal and property first. People are darts, even if they meet a strong man, they must be brave and show their swords and fight for life and death. ā
"Good!" One by one, the dart masters responded greatly to Pei Min's speech.
It's not because of Pei Min's eloquence, but because of his strength.
Mu Cong and Mu Ling were already convinced, but the three people he called were different.
Pei Min also has the heart of prestige, with one enemy and three, with gorgeous sword skills and swordsmanship, he has achieved victory.
People in the martial arts respect martial arts, and Pei Min wins easily and beautifully with one enemy and three enemies, which makes people have to be convinced.
In fact, the most shocking ones were Mu Cong and Mu Ling, who recognized Pei Min's strength. But for the two of them joining forces or being invincible, there is a little unwillingness in my heart. Brothers and sisters grew up together, and they are the type of people who don't get along with each other. After the battle, they got together privately and studied the methods of attack and defense with each other, intending to regain the original tacit understanding, save a little face, and fight for Kongtong's life.
It can be seen that Pei Min is one against three, and the martial arts he shows lie more in their competition. In just a few months, there has been a lot of progress, and I can't help but be a little frustrated.
The fame of SF Dart Bureau has not yet started, and it only does one business in Taozhou Shi, but this business alone is completely enough for the expenses of the Dart Bureau.
The people in the martial arts do not have a stable income, and they are jealous of the imperial court, so life is not as happy as expected. Especially now that the world is peaceful, the people live and work in peace and contentment, and the rivers and lakes are even more difficult to mix.
SF Dart Game was born, and its reputation was not obvious, but it was unexpectedly noticed by those who were interested.
On this day, Pei Min listened to Feng Changqing's report in the Assassin's Mansion.
Assassin Shi is also a military and political power, and Pei Min has also been busy with the handling of government affairs, and he doesn't ask much about military issues. This does not mean that he does not attach importance to the military, but it is because he is reassured.
Needless to say, Feng Changqing's military level is decisive, he has extraordinary ability to govern the army, and he is very good at training soldiers. In this regard, Pei Min is a little self-proud. With Feng Changqing's leading soldiers' training, supplemented by the abilities of Li Yide and Jiang Yue, it is enough to deal with all problems.
All Pei Min had to do was make routine inquiries to find out the progress.
"In the past six months, the Shence Army has been carrying out corresponding training, especially the Shence Cavalry, and its ability to run has been greatly improved, and I feel that it is time to act." Feng Changqing said confidently, different from the unyielding in the past, now he has a radiant face, and Pei Min's weight allows him to show his strengths and give full play to his natural ability in military affairs.
The Shence Army is also a standing army, not the government soldiers of the past, and there are various situations. When the standing army is not in war, there is no interference except training and training. From rooster crow to sunset, there's plenty of time to splurge. Feng Changqing was rigorous and serious, and every day he ruthlessly squeezed every bit of the remaining physical strength of the Shence Army. In the past six months, the strength of the Shence soldiers, who were originally talented soldiers, has improved significantly.
Chang Qing said yes, I think the time is ripe. It's been half a year, it's time to act! Pei Min thought that Taozhou's government affairs were gradually on the right track, and his military strength was gradually improving, and he knew that it was time to deal with the problem of Tibet.
If the problem of Tibet is not solved, it will always become a thorn in the hearts of the people of Taozhou, and they will worry from time to time that Tibet will attack and destroy everything for them again, and they will not be able to truly feel at ease.
A trace of excitement flashed in Feng Changqing's eyes and said: "If this arrangement continues, as for how to lure Tubo to attack, it depends on the means of assassination." ā
Pei Min said with a smile: "The ambition of the Tibetan wolf keeps inserting eyeliner in my Tang Dynasty and buying traitors. In the past six months, I have also arranged a few detailed works in my own way and in my own person. It's still okay to fan the flames if it's useless. ā
Feng Changqing's eyes lit up, and in order to understand Pei Min's intentions, he said: "Assassin Shi Gaoming!" ā
Thinking of the little layout that Pei Min revealed to him, Feng Changqing's heart was hot for a while, and when he saw that things were achieved little by little, he respected his boss even more.
Not long ago, the heroic deeds of Pei Min, a young general of the Tang Dynasty, who was only about 20 years old, with no more than 5,000 soldiers, defended Jincheng, defeated the general Kun Dayan, and killed Kudule and Natoto, which made the Tubo soldiers frightened.
As soon as Pei Min came to Taozhou, the commanders of the thousand commanders, Ka Ninbu and Marpa, shrank like turtles and did not dare to move......
The rumors spread more and more, and even boasted that Pei Min was as talented and capable as the military god Garqinling. In the hearts of the Tibetan people, the Garqin Mausoleum is the most powerful commander and the pride of the whole Tibetans.
When the news reached the ears of the Tibetan Zanpu Chide Zuzan, the little Tibetan Zanpu, who did not have many kings, thought of the recent series of defeats, and could not help but scold Kanymbu and Marpa for being cowardly and incompetent.
