Chapter XVIII Negotiations

Liuxia Village, Zhuangzi under the name of the Yasukuni Mansion, although it is around the capital, but there is no good land, Lin Yuan is the first time to come here. Looking at the semi-finished product in front of him, Lin Yuan stepped forward and knocked it with his hand, it seemed that the material was very thick.

Lin Yuan nodded with satisfaction, Zhang Yao on the side waved his hand when he saw this, and several craftsmen installed the chimney rolled in iron sheets, and the raw material used for the fire was carbon stone, and the fire had just risen without the smoke common in charcoal pots in the past. Zhang Yao said with a smile: "Now the effect is good, and the stove is heating up quickly." The important thing is not only to keep warm, but also to make a fire for cooking. It is indeed something that many people need. ”

Lin Yuan nodded and said, "The craftsmanship is good, how much does it cost?" ”

"The raw materials and manpower add up to less than the usual money, and the price is one or two or five dollars for the time being. The people of Gyeonggi can afford it. Zhang Yao said.

Lin Yuan turned his head to look at the few women standing on the side: "You can use this thing when you bring it back today, remember, if you want the neighbors to see this thing, you must also take the trouble to explain to them how good this thing is." But don't say where you can buy it just yet. ”

Several peasant women nodded, and Zhang Yao on the side was a little puzzled. If you don't tell people where you sell it, why do you spend so much effort? Lin Yuan saw that Zhang Yao was a little confused, so he explained: "Goods are scarce and expensive, and we need to increase people's interest before shipping, so that we can quickly make huge profits." ”

Zhang Yao didn't seem to understand, Lin Yuan didn't explain more, and then ordered: "Things are made in Liuxia Village for the time being, and they can still be satisfied, but we must expand production as soon as possible and stock up on more goods, seeing that winter is coming, and more and more people will buy it after that, if there is any difficulty, go to the house to find Uncle Lin." ”

Zhang Yao didn't seem to understand it, but Lin Yuanbin didn't explain much, and chatted with a few old people in Zhuangzi to make them feel relieved. Then got into the carriage and rushed to the Huaiyin Hou Mansion, after half a month, the things sent by the Hou Mansion were finally perfect, and the spirits distilled last night were finally successful, and today is to talk about the next matters.

After the incident of the military department's nest, the capital Dasuo made many people tremble, and those who experienced and heard the bloody night in the capital ten years ago were afraid that history would repeat itself. Kohwafang, which is not very lively in Japan, is now even more deserted.

As soon as he knocked on the door of the Hou Mansion, a head poked out carefully, and when he saw that it was the Hou Ye's distinguished guest, Jingguo Gong, he hurriedly invited Lin Yuan in.

"I'm afraid there are not many military nobles who dare to wander the streets now." Zhang Gu made a joke, but he knew that if he said that he was loyal to the current saints, the three generations of Yasukuni Gong were unparalleled. There is also a noble concubine in this palace who is not a queen and is more like a queen.

"Uncle is joking." Lin Yuan smiled, took the wine jar from Yu Shi's hand and handed it to Zhang Gudao: "The virtuous nephew is here to discuss business." ”

After taking over the wine jar, a strong aroma of wine poured out as soon as it was opened. Zhang Gu's index finger moved, and he said with a smile: "Where did the virtuous nephew get the good wine?" This wine is much stronger than the sac wine from the north. ”

The sac wine can be said to be the strongest wine in the Great Zhou Dynasty, which came from the merchants in the north, because the skin is filled, so it is named the sac wine. The northern border is not good at farming, and he does like to drink, and this bag of wine has always been sold well in the territory of the Great Zhou.

"It's a good wine brought back from Jinju, and it took three jars to steam out such a jar." Lin Yuan explained.

"This is made from the previous artifact?" Zhang Gu said curiously.

Lin Yuan nodded, this wine began to be wasted a lot, and I thought that the output would increase a lot after coming. Lin Yuan said: "I heard that there are many industries in my uncle's mansion, among which there are a few small restaurants in Beijing. I wonder if this wine can be sold? ”

Zhang Gu thought for a while and said, "It's not difficult to sell, but the difficult thing is how much can you supply?" ”

"Uncle has heard that scarcity is expensive, if you want to make money with this wine, you can't sell it on a large scale, you have to let people know that this thing is very rare, and this jar of wine is too ugly." Lin Yuan said.

Zhang Gu looked at Lin Yuan dumbfounded, is this still the grandfather of the Yasukuni Mansion? In addition to fighting, when will the whole house do business?

"That's right, but why is the jar ugly, and are the jars for wine all exquisite?" No wonder Zhang Gu is confused, it is really like this in the jar of wine in Da Zhou.

"Of course, ordinary people don't care, but there are many noble officials and people with a lot of money who like it, if that's the case, this mansion will simply be replaced with an ordinary courtyard, and the rich live a delicate life." Lin Yuan talked eloquently, all because he learned from Lin Guangyuan in the recent period of time that how to spend a lot of money on people with some status in Beijing, an ordinary glass wine glass can be auctioned for 100 gold. It's really puzzling.

Zhang Gu opened his mouth and asked, "How does the virtuous nephew plan to operate?" ”

"I plan to divide this wine into three grades, the first class is only steamed once, it is mass-produced, exclusively for ordinary people, the container can be used in slightly better bottles on the market now, and the second class is steamed twice, which is the kind that my uncle holds in his hand, and the container should be smaller and can be filled with white porcelain. The third class of non-noble people is not sold, and celadon can be bottled, but the production is very small. Lin Yuan picked up the teacup and took a sip of tea, then said: "Uncle can let people sell second-class wine every ten days, and after a while, sell mass-produced wine, and wait for the fame to start launching celadon third-class wine." ”

Hearing this, Zhang Gu asked, "How much do you plan to sell this wine?" ”

"Ten taels of first-class wine, twenty taels of silver for second-class wine, and I plan to auction for third-class wine." After Lin Yuan finished speaking, he saw Zhang Gu staring at him, and said puzzledly: "What's wrong with uncle?" ”

"How dare you sell it." Zhang Gu said speechlessly: "But this wine is indeed worth this price, so let's do it according to the plan you said for the time being." Looking at the wine in his hand, Zhang Gu smiled: "Now we have to talk about how to divide the account." ”

As soon as the words fell, the atmosphere in the room also changed, Zhang Gu looked at Lin Yuan, completely with the face of a stranger: "Listening to the tone of the Yasukuni Gong, I am full of confidence, I don't know what the Yasukuni Gong plans to do about the dividend?" ”

Sure enough, when I talk about money, it hurts my feelings, and even the title has changed. Lin Yuan thought for a while and looked at the Marquis of Huaiyin: "Then let's talk about it, the Hou Ye is out of technology and channels, and the Ming Gong is out of technology and goods, both of which are indispensable, it is said that five or five accounts are the best, but at the moment, the government is short of money, so I will be cheeky to propose four or six accounts, my government will take six, and Hou Ye will take four, how about it?" ”

"Oh, since the founding of the Huaiyin Marquis Mansion to the present, I have been able to survive by virtue of the word contentment, what is the current situation of the Guogong Mansion, this is naturally clear, then I will be a good person again, we will divide the account with two or eight, and I will be two and you eight." As soon as Zhang Gu's voice fell, Lin Yuan was stunned, thinking that he might pull the skin for a while, but he didn't know that the Marquis of Huaiyin would not fight and give in, which made him a little uncertain.

"Don't you understand why I agreed so happily?" Zhang Gu asked.

Lin Yuan nodded, not understanding the reason, Huaiyin Hou's attitude made him not want to cooperate. Zhang Gu smiled and then explained: "The three generations of loyal martyrs of the Yasukuni Prince, my Huaiyin Marquis Mansion is also a starting family in the army, and I also served under the command of the previous Guogong back then. That's why it's done. ”

After listening to Zhang Gu's explanation, Lin Yuan's first reaction was not to believe it, and this reason was half-true. But he didn't break it, got up and saluted, and said, "Thank you, uncle." ”

Zhang Gu smiled and nodded, but he knew in his heart that this was only one of the reasons, and the real reason was that the current situation in Beijing was complicated. The emperor will definitely attack the family with the power of a great victory, but there is a premise for this, that is, there is no one among the main nobles of the confrontation to cause chaos, and if he is there, it is okay not to stand on the wrong side, but it is difficult to ensure that the descendants do not do foolish things, and then they can pass the good fate with the Yasukuni Mansion and not fall into the fate of the family being ruined.

The big tree of the Yasukuni Mansion is not easy to fall, and this is the consensus of the discerning people in the DPRK and China at present. Not to mention the great achievements that Lin Yuan has made now, the status of the three generations of loyal martyrs alone cannot be shaken.

The money-making plan was very smooth at the beginning, which made the stone in Lin Yuan's heart fall to the ground. After discussing the details of the cooperation with the Marquis of Huaiyin, he returned to the Guogong Mansion in a comfortable mood. was about to take a good rest, but as soon as he entered the door, he heard Cai Quan report that someone was coming from the palace. Thinking that he hadn't done anything recently, the urgency of the call in the palace might be related to his sister, so after sorting it out a little, he entered the palace with someone from the palace. It is said that this is the second time I have entered the palace.
