Chapter 1913: Evil is spreading

In fact, these days, many articles published by Shizu Daily have attracted everyone's attention, and the core idea of these articles is to apply Confucianism and Taoism to the business field, and Han Yi certainly supports it, because this can make traditional ideas and new classes fuse together to form a new kind of thinking, which is of great help to the development of capitalism, because it can help businessmen reduce a lot of resistance from tradition, and improve the quality of businessmen themselves.

They didn't stand for a while, and many businessmen saw Han Yi and Wu Kelie standing here, and hurriedly came over to say hello, all of them were some wealthy businessmen.

Peng Wanjin smiled and said: "Brother Kelie, your northwest has developed really well in recent years, and the goods you bring are increasing exponentially. ”

Jia Fugui also said: "Yes! It's a bit unbearable for us! ”

Wu Kelie smiled and said: "Don't be modest, your strength, we know very well, even if we ship more goods, it is nothing to you!" ”

"You can't say that." Xu Ke waved his hand and said: "Your goods will be sold in the Central Plains, but our goods will not only meet you, but also have to be sold to other regions of the Central Plains. ”

Yigu suddenly frowned and said: "Speaking of this, I think of another thing, when I came here to walk before, I passed by a pen workshop, and I wanted to buy some back, but their person in charge said that now the pens they produce, even Chang'an can't supply them, and Jiangnan is still waiting, let alone buying them to the northwest, but in the end I only bought fifty yuan, or someone made an exception to sell it to me." ”

Yuwen Xiumi said: "The Wang family's pen, don't think about it, now even our Ministry of Industry has come to him to buy pens, and our Zhaoyi Academy in Chang'an has also signed an order with them, and it seems that it has not been enough this year." ”

Dou Yi said: "The Wang family's pen workshop is only a matter of the past two years, and this lack of production is also a matter of course, but as far as I know, even Andy's toothbrushes are in a tight shipment situation, and now the employees of their workshop are not on vacation." ”

"If you want me to say, the most obvious of them is the canned food of the Xiaopang Group, and now the canned fruit, not to mention the northwest, even Chang'an and Luoyang can't buy it if they want to, and Xiaopang still lives in Chang'an."

Yuwen Xiumi said: "The same is true of my family's glue, now it is sold as much as it is made, and those businessmen in Jiangnan are urging it every day." ”

Wu Kelie was very puzzled when he heard this, and said, "I remember that when I came here last time, you couldn't sell the goods, why did it become in short supply this time?" ”

He Ruohan said: "We also wonder, my mules are still being studied, and this order has already come, alas... I can't even make any money. ”

As he spoke, everyone suddenly complained, and then everyone looked at Han Yi again.

"Brother Han, what's the matter with you?"

Han Yi smiled: "Do you say that there is only one industry that has not faced this problem today?" ”

"It's supposed to be the textile industry."

Yigu immediately said: "Let's go back to the Central Plains this time, and the amount of silk is the most sufficient." ”

Yuwen Xiumi sighed and said: "That's all because of the Cao brothers' water-powered spinning machine, their workshop is running non-stop all day and night, and our goods are made by the workers every day, which is of course not as good as them." ”

Wu Kelie said: "Speaking of water-powered spinning here, when I came, I heard that Tuyuhun uses a new technology to use wind power to make salt, but it is very tight, so the price of salt in Tuyuhun has fallen a little this year, but the amount is much more." ”

Han Yi frowned and said, "Wind salt making? ”

Yang Mengcheng hurriedly said: "I also heard about this when I was in Liangzhou, and it is said that Wang Fangyi invented it. ”

"There is such a thing." Han Yi was surprised: "Why didn't I say this?" ”

Yang Mengcheng said: "Brother-in-law, what is Wang Fangyi's identity, how embarrassed is he to report this kind of thing to the imperial court!" ”

Han Yi snorted: "I'm embarrassed to report this kind of thing, he has to report it, he hasn't received a lot of money for a few years, he can't starve to death, what an idiot." ”

He Ruohan said: "Brother Han, don't care about Tuyuhun first, what's the situation on our side?" Our workshops have expanded a lot, but the supply of goods has become outstripping. ”

Han Yi said: "Of course, this is because the market has become bigger, and our production technology has not kept up, so it seems a little unsatisfied." ”

He Ruohan said: "Where has this market become bigger? ”

Yuwen Xiumi said: "Will this have anything to do with vouchers, I remember that after the issuance of vouchers, our shipments are getting bigger and bigger." ”

Han Yi nodded and said: "Of course, this has a certain relationship, and the demand will further increase, after all, we are now mainly concentrated in the canal generation, there is also the land of Bashu, as well as Fengxiang and other places, including Lelang Prefecture and other places." ”

He Ruohan sighed: "So what, we don't have the ability to make that money." ”

Han Yi said: "If you have no way, you can either recruit more people, or improve your production technology." ”

Yuwen Xiumi sighed: "That water power can be spinning, but unfortunately many workshops can't use it, otherwise I would have bought their patents." ”

"Even if you can use it, you have to find a good place, Sanmen Mountain can be occupied, who was willing to go to that place before, and now the land price is higher than Chang'an, if I have a piece of land, I can not buy and sell."

He Ruohan suddenly thought of something and said, "That's right! Brother Han, you hurry up and call Mr. Yun back, Mr. Yun is the best at this technical problem, he must have a way. ”

Yuwen Shumi also said: "That's right! Why did Mr. Yun go, why haven't you seen him come back yet? ”

At this time, I care about Mr. Yun, why did you go earlier? Han Yi said with a smile: "Mr. Yun is now staying in the Sixth Courtyard of the Sage in Yangzhou, and you also know Mr. Yun's character, he doesn't like to move around very much." ”

"What is there to do in Yangzhou, he is reluctant to move around, let's spend money to carry him back in a sedan chair, and keep him from taking a step." Yuwen Shuya was very dissatisfied.

"You can't expect Mr. Yun to be alone in this kind of thing." Han Yi smiled and said, "You have to find a way yourself, look at the Cao brothers, this time it can be regarded as a big profit." ”

He was actually very happy to see this situation, because this was a kind of sign, which indicated that the production technology must be improved, but he did not expect it to come so quickly, and he really did not notice it beforehand, because the merchants have been making money, of course they will not have any dissatisfaction, and they are only nervous, and they have not said that they are very out of stock. This is because the Tang Dynasty was originally a superpower, with a territory many times that of the United Kingdom, and once it began to be marketized, it would take a certain amount of time to digest the local market.

Why before the crisis, businessmen not only feel at ease, but also worried that the goods in their hands can not be sold, but this year I feel a little powerless, this is the canal generation of all marketization, including the rise of Yangzhou and Muzhou, the people of these states and counties are running to the city, then everything needs to be bought, the demand is actually increasing day by day, before the crisis there is no such a big market, plus this year and the issuance of vouchers, the boss has currency to issue to employees, the market began to explode amazing demand.

It's just that because the traffic is not so fast, it can't be shown at this time, but the merchants from the northwest are here, and they are here to buy on a large scale, because they are here to barter, and they will definitely take away a large number of goods, which makes the merchants of Chang'an look a little dizzy at the beginning.

Especially some of the new products, pencils, perfumes, toilets, cans, paper, including boats, have all become a little nervous.

Even if it is Han Yi's papermaking workshop, it is still barely enough to meet the needs of the Ukelie, and the Ukelie they are back, that is a large demand for paper, because the people in the northwest have also begun to read, and the demand for paper is increasing, but the Central Plains is strictly confidential about paper technology, coupled with the patent bill, it is even more confidential, and technical talents have come to Chang'an.

But there is only one Cao brother in the world, and it is too difficult to improve his skills. Yuwen Xiumi frowned, suddenly rolled his eyes, rubbed his chin and said, "Brother Han, I heard that when we went to fight Goguryeo last time, the Wa Kingdom also sent troops to help Baekje fight us. ”

Han Yi was stunned for a moment and said, "What are you talking about this?" ”

Yuwen Xiumi immediately said indignantly: "That projectile land also dares to spread wildness on our Tang Dynasty, we have to teach them some lessons!" ”

He Ruohan said: "That's right! We can't forget this hatred! ”

Wow! You have killed tens of thousands of people, and if you want to seek revenge, they should also come to seek revenge with us! Han Yi said angrily: "You also said, it's just a land of projectiles, why are we going to fight it if it's okay, we didn't lose the last war." ”

Yuwen Xiu said shyly: "Isn't it possible to provide us with some manpower." ”

Yigu nodded, and said seriously: "This is okay, why did we build the road from the northwest to the Central Plains so quickly, it is because there were many slaves from Goguryeo later, if you get some more slaves, maybe you can build the cement road to Beiting earlier." ”

Last time, those descendants of Yuangai Suwen were all sent to the northwest, because Han Yi knew that these people all had hatred for the Tang Dynasty, and it was not suitable to move to the Central Plains, and the merchants of the Central Plains might not be able to suppress it, so they simply sent it directly to the northwest, so that the more powerful people in the northwest could teach them a lesson.

are all obedient and honest.

Wu Kelie's eyes lit up when he heard this, and he nodded: "What a reasonable statement! ”

Han Yi couldn't help but laugh and said, "Do you know where the Wa Kingdom is?" ”

Yigu shook his head.

Han Yi said: "I don't know, what are you talking about!" ”

Yuwen Xiumi said: "Brother Han, in fact, the slave is a trivial matter, we are not going there, the key is that our Datang is very faceless, although we won, but that should be, but the Japanese dare to send troops to support our enemy, this is clearly not our Datang in our eyes, we have to teach those wild monkeys a lesson, let them know the means of my Datang." ”

This guy is really getting more and more shameless, it's been several years since this happened, why did you go before, today I suddenly remembered that I have no face, and what kind of slave is a trivial matter, you are obviously going to the slave. Han Yi doesn't want to deal with this guy.

Jia Fugui, a jeweler, had a flickering gaze and said, "This Japanese country has silver, and if you want to bring it down, isn't this silver all ours." As he spoke, a wicked smile appeared on his lips, and if I had a silver mine, it would not be too wonderful.

He Ruohan said excitedly: "It's not that there will be silver tickets that can be used in the future, you can fight, you can fight." ”

Han Yi said: "I'll beat you up, when this military event is a major event, it will be your turn to point fingers here." ”

He Ruohan said: "I didn't point fingers, I just gave advice, we have raised so many sailors in Laizhou, why don't we fight." ”

Yuwen Xiumi said: "Isn't it, this is mainly about the face of my Tang Dynasty, the imperial court should seriously consider this issue, if there are any financial difficulties, we can also support it." I have a way, the imperial court can issue treasury bonds, let's buy them, and when the time comes, after the Japanese state is conquered, we will take it directly..... Hehe..... Maybe even the last national debt can be offended. ”

Speaking of the back, he was moved by his own IQ, and his shoulders shrugged violently with a smile.

Yang Mengcheng said seriously: "Brother-in-law, I also think you should talk to Your Majesty." ”

He was also short of people now, and the forage was selling too well, and he planned to continue to expand the business, but unfortunately he had not caught up with the Goguryeo War before.

"Why don't you go to Silla?" He Ruohan said thoughtfully.

"What kind of Silla fight, Silla is my Tang Dynasty's vassal state, this is an unkind and unrighteous thing, but you can't do it, don't say this again, be careful that Your Majesty condemns you." Yuwen Xiumi glared at He Ruohan, and then whispered in He Ruohan's ear: "You are stupid, this Silla can't be beaten, if Silla is destroyed, then the Silla maid will be the people of the Tang Dynasty, and then you can't buy it." ”

He Ruohan immediately broke out in a cold sweat, if the Silla maid was gone, what was the point of living, and said again and again: "Yes, yes, such unkind and unrighteous things can't be done." ”

Wu Kelie on the side listened to it and was very happy in his heart, fortunately everyone is now a family, otherwise, wouldn't we be the target of the beating, the fight against the Japanese country and the sea, we can be next to each other, it is so convenient, and at the same time I am very proud in my heart, we are now the people of the Tang Dynasty, and I am the one who beats people.

Not to mention them, even Han Yi felt that these people were a little perverted, and fighting was like child's play, so he couldn't help but laugh and said: "I asked you to find a way to increase productivity, can you stop thinking about slaves." ”

Yuwen Xiumi said: "Isn't this slave a productive force!" ”

Han Yi was speechless.

In fact, the effect brought about by the last fight against Goguryeo was reflected in Jiangnan, and it did not happen in Chang'an, because after the fight against Goguryeo at that time, Han Yi went back to guard filial piety, and then an economic crisis broke out immediately. At that time, the merchants took the slaves to Jiangnan and sold a large number of slaves to the merchants in Jiangnan. The merchants in the south of the Yangtze River took the slaves to the estates, planted tea, and planted grain, and even the smuggling groups had some Goguryeo slaves, because they all had no household registration, and you couldn't find it, and the rapid development of Yangzhou actually had something to do with the Goguryeo slaves, because the cost of slaves was low, and the merchants could complete the primitive accumulation.

And now there is a Tubo around the Tang Dynasty, that Silla is a vassal state in the end, but if you fight Tubo, they can't afford it, and the Wa Kingdom is a very good choice for them, and they don't have relatives and relatives, and there are relatively few contacts.

Han Yi said bitterly: "Our Tang Dynasty is a country of gentlemen...... ”

"What kind of gentleman's country, Brother Han, don't fool those literati, our Tang Dynasty is a country of warriors." Yuwen Xiumi held his head high and said proudly: "Our ancestor and Taizong are all emperors on horseback, and our Tang Dynasty was established from the war, and the war cannot be left behind." Brother Han, don't say that I will hide behind and say, I am also willing to go to the battlefield, but the court doesn't want me. ”

"You kid is crazy, I don't want to talk to you more." Han Yi ignored this guy and beckoned Wu Kelie to them: "Let's go, let's eat." ”

Yuwen Xiumi said hehehehe: "Together, together, let's talk again at the dinner." ”

Han Yi immediately scolded: "I'll talk about your sister." ”

Yuwen Xiumi said regretfully: "It's a pity that my two younger sisters are already married, otherwise, I would like to call you brother-in-law." I don't know if my cousin can? My cousin is a water spirit, and she is only fifteen years old now. ”

"Get out."
