Chapter 187: The Brand Effect

Guo Bin explained his requirements to the construction engineers, spent a few days studying together, and finally completed the construction sketch of the South Palace, and after some discussion with Cai Yong, Guo Bin personally entered the palace and presented it to the Son of Heaven. In order to make the Son of Heaven understand the design of the new palace at a glance, Guo Bin not only drew a three-dimensional diagram of the layout and structure of the entire palace, but also made models of several novel designs such as the ground kang and the dome of the cloud platform.

Watching the Son of Heaven wander around several models and admire, Guo Bin's heart was full of pride. This pride, of course, is not because he plagiarized a few designs of later generations, although he is thick-skinned, but he will never be excited by the success of others, so he is proud of the layout of the Nangong, three-dimensional drawings and models that the architects rushed to produce overnight.

This method of composition according to scale had not existed at this time, and sketching a three-dimensional view of a building required a great deal of geometric knowledge, at least in the eyes of the people of this era. This series of big moves, the Son of Heaven in front of him may just watch the excitement, and he doesn't understand its profound historical significance, but Guo Bin has been immersed in the excitement of creating history.

Most of the architects were the earliest students of the Fulong Villa School, the oldest of whom was only 18 years old, and the youngest was only 15 years old, and they were the best of Guo Bin's earliest students. At first, because they were older and more receptive, they received not only literacy education in the school, but also mathematics, elementary geometry and physics. Later, Guo Bin united with the wealthy families in Yangzhai County to form Yangzhai Construction Co., Ltd., and they were recruited by Guo Bin.

Because they were receptive, educated, and knew geometry, they were all promoted to technicians after working with the workers at the grassroots level for a period of time, and they practiced while studying, guiding ordinary workers in construction at ordinary times, and gathering together at night to learn to draw.

It is precisely because of Guo Bin's strategy of popularizing compulsory education that such a group of high-quality talents who are literate and understand construction have been trained. And this time the construction of the South Palace is a concentrated test of their efforts for more than a year, so far, according to Guo Bin's observation, their drawing ability is at least passable.

Liu Hong, the Son of Heaven, leaned down, while looking at the model of the kang mouth presented by Guo Bin, he was amazed, while Zhang Rang followed him, stretched his neck, squinted his eyes and thought carefully, and from time to time echoed the Son of Heaven to make an exclamation of approval. Zhang Rang was really shocked, he couldn't imagine that Guo Bin would be so extensive, even engaged in architecture. While dealing with the Son of Heaven, he had secretly made up his mind in his heart that his mansion should be done like this, and it was best to say hello to Yang Zhai Construction Co., Ltd. in advance.

In this surprisingly cold winter day, the hard cold wind can freeze people's bone marrow, even in the wooden room is like falling into an ice cellar, this winter, except in the bed or around the stove, people have nowhere to escape. Therefore, in the winter, people mostly gather around the fire. Even in wealthy families, people rarely have the opportunity to move freely.

These ordinary people are still good to say, every time they come to the big and small court meetings, they can suffer a group of important ministers of the court and the Son of Heaven. In this towering and cold hall, it is to close the door of the palace, and then place stoves everywhere in the hall, it is extremely difficult to completely drive away the cold of winter, and the important ministers of the court are all old, where can they stand the cold?

The design of this kang is indeed unexpected, although I have heard that in the new city of Yangzhai County, the newly built residential houses now have underfloor heating, but it is said that it is to fill it with sawdust, and a furnace of sawdust can burn slowly for a winter. I heard that with this kind of floor heating, which even ordinary people can afford, it can make the whole room warm like spring. If you get this in the palace hall, it will be much better in winter.

Therefore, after Guo Bin reported the construction drawings of Nangong to the Son of Heaven, the Son of Heaven didn't say a word, and decided on the spot: "Just do it!" ”

As the preparatory work in the early stage is gradually on the right track, the start date of the reconstruction of Nangong is gradually approaching.

These days, the staff of the Jingshi Office of Yangzhai Construction Co., Ltd., located near the Yangzhai Hall, can be regarded as busy. Just because of Guo Bin's drawings, the wealthy families in Beijing came to place orders, most of them to build Zhuangzi and build a warm pavilion outside the city, and wanted to contract to Yangzhai Construction Company.

The most mysterious place in the world is the Imperial Palace, and the most leaky place is also the Imperial Palace. Every move in the palace was watched by the princes, nobles, and important ministers outside, so what happened in the palace in the morning would spread throughout the capital in the evening. Guo Bin ordered people to drive a few carriages into the palace to present the architectural drawings of the South Palace to the Son of Heaven, who else in Beijing does not know? Besides, Guo Bin, who wants to build the golden sign of Yangzhai Construction Company with this, can't wait for the uproar in Beijing, where will it be hidden?

Therefore, on the day and night when Guo Bin presented the drawings, many designs had already spread in Beijing. Which of these wealthy families in Beijing doesn't have a few Zhuangzi outside the city? Where did it cost to rebuild a few warm pavilions? In winter, what kind of pleasant experience should it be to live in Zhuangzi with my relatives, looking at the cold wind and snow outside, but the interior is as warm as spring? Even between husband and wife, when performing the Dunlun ceremony, you don't have to hide under the cover all the time, right?

Therefore, the housekeepers who came to place orders almost flattened the threshold of the office of Yangzhai Construction Company in one day. If there is a relationship with Guo Bin, or a person with a high status, he will go directly to Guo's mansion, just to place an order and be able to rank first. Even Yang Ci sent someone to deliver a letter, asking Guo Bin to help him rebuild the warm pavilion. Guo Bin naturally didn't dare to slack off, and hurriedly took out some engineers, first following the request of a few old ministers with good friendships and high status, which could be regarded as accumulating a little experience for the construction of Nangong.

After all, the construction of Nangong is a big project, and it will take several months to transport just dry materials.

The material to be transported for the construction of the project is the cement of Fulong Villa. As for the masonry, the Son of Heaven had already set aside a piece of wasteland for Guo Bin on the outskirts of Beijing, and asked him to make bricks and stones specifically for the construction of the South Palace.

Jingshi's big move can make the shareholders of Yangzhai Construction Company smile crookedly. It is needless to say how much money is made from construction, although the reconstruction of Nangong is made by the company, it costs a lot of money. However, only a novel design by the design team controlled the money bags of the wealthy families in Beijing. Although the construction of the Nangong has not yet started, the fixed money received by the wealthy families in Beijing alone is enough to build several Nangong.

They knew that this was all thanks to Guo Bin, and without him, this construction company would not have existed. Without the efforts of the designers in Fulong Villa, the construction company would not have developed so quickly. If Guo Bin hadn't made a decision, and Yangzhai Construction Company had built Nangong with work and materials, where would it cause such a big sensation in Beijing?

There is no doubt that the strategic goals set by Guo Bin for Yangzhai Construction Company have been basically achieved, as long as there are no major mistakes in the construction of Nangong, the transformation of Yangzhai Construction Company will be considered a success.

To say that Guo Bin's sudden decision this time, many people in the Yangzhai wealthy family disagreed. Originally, everyone was doing business together, and if it was a profitable business, you would take it. But where is there a contractor who can't get a penny? Even if the other party is the Son of Heaven, it won't work!

However, because of Guo Bin's huge influence and past achievements in Yangzhai County, he spoke in the county, which was full of words. Especially after He Man attacked Yangzhai County, his prestige soared, and no wealthy clan dared to disobey him. Therefore, the shareholders of Yangzhai Construction Company, although they were still a little reluctant in their hearts, still agreed with Guo Bin's opinion. Anyway, it's not their family's business, didn't Xun Yu also pull other wealthy families in Yingchuan County to buy shares in the construction company? It's a way to take a little bit of the pressure off your shoulders!

And today, they know how wise their decision to accept Guo Bin's opinion was. This has not yet started, and the overwhelming orders have been overwhelming, and the company's orders have already been scheduled for next winter. The housekeepers of the wealthy families in Beijing squeezed their heads to send money as if they didn't want to die, where in the world is there a better business than this?

Today's Guo Bin, in the hearts of Yangzhai County and even the entire wealthy family in Yingchuan County, is truly true. Its prestige is so high and its reputation is so great that no Yingchuan county guard has ever had such a status. These are not only because Guo Bin has repeatedly led people to win more with less and rescued Yingchuan County, which is stagnant in the Yellow Turban, but also because he can take everyone to make money.

The so-called cutting off people's financial means is like killing their parents, so is it to regenerate parents for life's wealth?

In fact, it is no wonder that these wealthy families hesitated and doubted Guo Bin's opinion at the beginning, because they were not in Beijing and did not know Guo Bin's reputation in Beijing. In Beijing, as long as the name of Guo Qianyang, the "good wealth boy", is out, those who want to come to cooperate can squeeze their heads. Because he has never done a loss-making business, whether it is the grape wine produced in Fulong Villa, or the fragrant soap, or the Yangzhai stationery set by the students in Taixue, which one is not a big deal of hundreds of millions? Is it really a good name to play?

As long as it is something produced in Yangzhai, whether it is wine, soap, stationery, clothes and hats, it is a high-end atmosphere and a good thing, and it is a veritable luxury. The children of the wealthy families in Beijing, who does not have a few new military uniforms made of Yangzhai clothing? Which one doesn't carry a pencil made of Yang Zhai stationery with him? Which one doesn't use Yang Zhai's soap and drink Yang Zhai's wine as the highest enjoyment?

It can be said that so far, the famous brand effect of Yangzhai County has been formed.
