Remembering a book written in black, the two characters Bo Shen Mang and cautiously gave Chu Yi a tired old gift, Liu Yiyi got up to say goodbye, and after politely thanking Xiao Ran outside, he immediately took the steward Chen Mingze out of the post house.

"Young master, that Chu Yi, at a glance, you can see that he is just a subordinate who is not favored and valued by him, he is rude, and his words are rarely polite, this time I came to pay tribute to the Tang Dynasty, whether he can return with his whole body is still a question, and how can he become the support of our Liufu in Gaochang in the future?" On the carriage, Chen Ming got up and poured a bowl of hot tea for their young master, and whispered to the side

Just now what their young master said to Chu Yi in the room, Chen Ming also listened to it all outside the door, and his mind has always been clear, and he has guessed a little bit of their eldest young master's thoughts, the strong dragon does not suppress the ground snake, the eldest young master wants to deliberately cultivate a ground snake that can be used by me in Gaochang.

It's just that Chu Yi, just an abandoned son who was released by Emperor Gaochang, what virtue does he have. can win the attention of the eldest young master of their family, and even in the mansion, only the second young master, young master Wen and young master A concealment can see the "thick black." A book was also kept? Chen Ming was a little puzzled, was it worth it for such a waste with no future at all?

"Do you know why I valued you in the first place?" Without answering Chen Mingze's question, Liu Yiyi took the tea bowl he handed and leaned close to his lips. Some inconsistencies asked Chen Mingze: "The legs and feet are good, so I handed over the most valuable hundreds of ploughing cattle in the house to you to take care of, and then the house was stabbed, and when I left, I signaled the dustless housekeeper to give you more guidance in the flat." In less than half a year, you were promoted to the position of steward, do you know why? ”

"Ming is stupid, but the owner's knowledge of Ming Ze's grace, Ming Ze is no matter in this life or the next life. I can't repay it, I don't know how their young master would mention this catty for no reason," but Chen Ming still spoke very wisely and showed his loyalty, with a look of gratitude.

"Of the eight people at the beginning, you were the first to open your mouth to confirm that you wanted to stay, and you don't need to mention loyalty anymore." With a light wave of his hand, Liu Yiyi interrupted Chen Mingze's words softly, glanced at Chen Mingze deeply, and said: "What I value you is, in addition to your loyalty to Liufu, is also the strength in you that is unwilling to be mediocre, unwilling to be poor, and unwilling to succumb to others." ”

"Of course, if you don't have too much potential and talent, I won't spend too much effort on you, what I can give you. It's just to fulfill the original promise, so that you can have no worries about food and clothing in Liufu. didn't hide much, Liu Yiyi said what he thought in front of Chen Mingze very bluntly. Use the amount of talent, teach according to talent, and people who have no talent will not be reused if they say anything.

"It is valued by the young master, and it is the good fortune that the villain cultivated in his previous life." Listening to their young master talk like this, praising himself, Chen Ming was somewhat proud in his heart, but more than that, he was still grateful from the bottom of his heart for the kindness of their young master.

In this world, there are as many people as there are carps crossing the river, what is missing? Chance, luck, an opportunity and luck to show your ambitions. This point, Chen Mingze, who has passed the year of establishment, has a deep understanding, that is, he really has some talents, if he does not have the insight of their young master, and he is sincerely promoted, he Chen Mingze is now, I am afraid that he still doesn't know which yard is still sweeping the fallen leaves.

"I choose Chu, and it's the same." Seeing that Chen Ming had already understood, Liu Yiyi said lightly again: "He has potential, although he doesn't have ambition for the time being." But if you train well, you may not have a good future in the future. ”

Rude, but not lacking in wit and recklessness, but good deeds.

When I came to Datang for seven days, I was surrounded by a post house, if I was really a reckless and rude person, how could I only smash the cup every day? Knowing that he was here to find his purpose, but he was not confused, as soon as Fang opened his mouth, he put himself in the position of a righteous minister who was loyal to the monarch and patriotic. Plugging the tongue, if it is just a mediocre and reckless person, to put it bluntly, it is a straw bag, how can there be such a scheming strategy?

Also, through the words of Fang Cai and Chu Yi, it is not difficult to see that this year's young foreign officials have seen the benefits of their Liu Mansion's acquisition of Bai Diezi in Gaochang to their entire country, coupled with the vague temptation, their own actions and purposes for acquiring Bai Diezi. He also had some conjectures and perceptions, but these things had nothing to do with him and Gao Chang, and he didn't bother to ask.

has real talent, has foresight, is not ambitious, is not reused for the poor, and has even been squeezed out to a position for the dead ghost, from the words and actions of Fang Cai Chu Yi, Liu Yiyi has already seen a rough idea, just because he is a person, acting too upright.

If he was born at the right time and met a good emperor, his direct name may not be weaker than Wei Zheng, but it is a pity that Ju Wentai, the king of Gaochang, does not have the measure of Li Shimin's recommendation to accept advice. Therefore, if there is no one to guide him, Chu Yi, a thousand-mile horse, is afraid that he has not yet waited for his Bole. He has been whipped by the thugs of the day, and driven to death from exhaustion. There is a saying about how to say, the icing on the cake is easy. It is difficult to send carbon in the snow, and nothing is more unforgettable than the carbon fire in the snow when you are about to freeze to death.

Therefore, before leaving, Liu Yichi left the charcoal fire.

This "belly black strategy" has exhausted the little things in Chinese officialdom for thousands of years, if Chu Yi is not stupid, he can understand some truths about being an official and a person from it. Like their second child. Like King Luobin, like Zhang Chuwen, they used to be three honest people, after reading this book. The whole person has changed, becoming sleek, sophisticated, and a little incomprehensible. As for "thick black", the essence of the word, the heart black can't be seen yet, but their faces have indeed become much thicker.

It's me who brought those three children to ruin, Liu Yichi sighed softly in his heart very ashamedly, if he wasn't in such an era, he wouldn't have written this kind of thing and gave it to them to watch, well, at least he wouldn't have taken it out so early.

"The young master is right, it's the villain who is a little short-sighted." After listening to their young master's words, Chen Ming whispered, although he was not too clear in his heart, but since their young master had done this, he must have his reason. As a subordinate, his questioning was already a bit overstepping.

"After I go back, talk to the dustless housekeeper ward" nodded lightly, took another sip of hot tea, and Liu Yiyi turned his mind to the family business, and said: "In the past two days, let the house urgently prepare some quilts, I have a heavy use." ”

Qin Mansion, Fang Mansion, Changsun Mansion, Gongsun General's Mansion. Lu Guogong, Song Guogong, Na Guogong, as well as Princess Changle and his wife, Princess Gaoyang, Princess Huanzhu, Princess Yuzhang, Empress Changsun, Concubine Yang, etc., can send some, just like the propaganda of some big brands in the previous life, first big and then small, first the city and then the countryside, anyway, first in these high-end upper class people. Let's build up the brand's reputation.

"Yes, the young master and villain have written it down." Chen Ming responded, and saw that the tea in the bowl was bottoming out. He hurriedly got up again, and picked up the pot to refill it for their young master.

"Also, in addition to the quilt, make a batch of cotton clothes and cotton cloth as soon as possible" Tapping his fingers on the tabletop, Liu Yiyi raised his eyes to look out the window, looked at the crowd coming and going on the street, and said: "The cold winter has arrived, and the weather is getting colder." And the government has enough cotton in stock. We have to rush to the market before the wax moon, and launch this newly made cotton clothes, cotton cloth and quilt on the market. ”

"As for how to do it" Liu Yiyi said: "You can let the dustless housekeeper go" Yi Heju, find Ren You's kid to help, he is the thug Dahong Chamber of Commerce, the quasi-sister-in-law of President Sang Cui, with him on the side, through the "Dahong Chamber of Commerce" and the business line of Ranmen Liufu, there should be no problems. ”

For the issue of entering the market of cotton products, Liu Yiyi has one hundred and twenty confidences, which are cheaper than silk and warmer than Qiu. And it is soft and comfortable, not only for dignitaries. Even ordinary people can buy it, and the market demand is unprecedented, so there is no need to worry about its sales.

"Well, and" Before Chen Ming could reply, Liu Yiyi said again: "The cottonseed house that was taken off is all ready?" ”

"Back to the young master, according to your previous instructions, all of them are in the library." Chen Ming replied in a low voice.

"Hmm" nodded lightly, and Liu Yiyi said softly: "Next year's spring will be warm, prepare some cotton planting, and the fields in our house, except for the five hundred acres of tea plantations, will be planted with cotton." In addition, organize some people to go out to publicize and encourage farmers in neighboring townships and counties to also plant, and in the future, we can recycle all the products produced by Liufu at a high price, if they don't believe it, they can contract as evidence. ”

The rise of the cotton imitation industry is the most feared name. It's not a shortage of qualifications, it's not a mismanagement. It's not a mess of talents, markets, etc., but a lack of sufficient, continuous supply of raw materials. The Liu family needs enough cotton farmers to support and provide enough cotton.

Although the cotton material of Gaochang is good, the road is too far away, not to mention the high freight, and in the next few years, between Gaochang and Datang, I am afraid that there will be some other things to start, and Liufu cannot afford to consume it, and it cannot be consumed.

"As for the matter of the Chongzhou steward" Seeing that Chen Ming nodded yes, Liu Yiyi brought the topic to this headache again, and said: "When I go back, I will tell his family that no matter what, I, Liuyi, and my Liufu will not ignore this matter, and we will try our best to bring the Chongzhou steward back safely." ”

Although Liu Yiyi is not completely sure about this matter, after all, the matter is in the Gaochang country thousands of miles away, and he has a heart and a law. But it is beyond the reach of the whip, but now that the matter has come to an end, there are some things that can only be said like this.
