The matter of the academy has finally settled, and the people of the Hangzhou Chamber of Commerce saw that Xie Wenxin and others from the Jiangnan Printing Bureau had made a lot of money under Xiao Zheng's guidance, and they also had a good reputation for sponsoring students.

It turned out that the businessman who was still a little worried about Xiao Zheng coming to collect wool also dispelled his thoughts, and the vigilance in his heart was gone, and the communication was much smoother, and the businessman who came to visit Xiao Zheng for a while was full of guests.

Although Wei Qingquan also reminded Xiao Zheng to pay attention to his identity, Xiao Zheng also disagreed, and still drank with these businessmen all day for fun.

Xiao Zheng was drinking and singing in Hangzhou, but Gong Dajun, the largest brick merchant in Hangzhou, was thundering.

Two months ago, he sold one of his brick kilns to a businessman named Chen Dong.

It seems that this businessman named Chen Dong has no connection with him, but in fact, he invites Chu more than anyone else in his heart, this person is a distant cousin of his third wife. The housekeeper told him that the formula had been found, so he happily went to the kiln and put things in according to the recipe.

Seeing such a situation, Gong Dajun threw away the things in his hand, pointed at the housekeeper and scolded: "Waste, a group of waste!" Didn't you say that the formula was found, how could such a thing be burned, you tell me, what's going on? ”。

"The owner, the villain is right, this recipe is indeed found from the hands of that Hu San, he burned cement in the Zengjia kiln, he is really clear about what materials are used in it, the money he eats, drinks, prostitutes and gambles now is from us, and we have spent two or three hundred yuan on him, he will definitely not lie to us."

"Tell me, then, what's over here?" Gong Dajun said angrily to the housekeeper.

"Owner, there are lime and clay in the recipe, and there are sand, caustic soda, and charcoal powder in addition to some fine materials."

"You must be wrong with this recipe! We have so many experienced potters, if the formula is not right, how can you not burn good cement, you must be blinded by others" Although Gong Dajun didn't know whether the formula was right or wrong, but out of the businessman's unique intuition, he still sensitively judged that there was a problem with the cement formula.

"Call that Hu San over, I'm going to ask him face to face, useless things!" Gong Dajun pointed at the housekeeper and scolded angrily.

The housekeeper saluted Gong Dajun and said: "The owner is wise, but if you go to Hu San to question him in person, the villain is worried that he will catch us and tell you out is not good for you, and the villain will ask Chen Dong to find Hu San to ask in detail, if he deceives the villain, I will definitely break him into pieces."

"No more nonsense! The money for this kiln material will be doubled from your regular money, but if you can't find the right recipe, I'll break you to pieces first! Get out of here! ”。

After saying that, Gong Dajun got into the carriage and drove away, and the housekeeper bent down to see him off, the corners of his mouth slightly tilted upward, revealing a contemptuous smile.

In Hangzhou Academy, Xiao Zheng took the Gai brothers and all the students to read Li Shimin's letter on the spot in front of several dozens of business representatives.

In the letter, Li Shimin vigorously praised the righteous deeds of the merchants, and agreed to put the names of all the merchants who sponsored the academy on the top of the academy, and at the same time sent a written banner of the Hangzhou Academy as a gift to the academy, which moved the merchants to wipe their tears while listening.

Pointing to the two boulders facing the gate, he said, "It has been prepared for a long time, and our gate has no door frame, so it is carved in stone and will be passed down forever."

"Good apartment, the old man agreed, I only know now why you didn't mention the words to this academy, it turns out that you have been prepared, at that time I heard from the Ministry of Civil Affairs that you are doing a good job, and the matter of slipping the beard is also easy to come, and the Ministry of Civil Affairs will not deceive me."

"Old man, you look up to me again, but I can write the words for the merchant to take the stone, isn't it better to do a good job?" Xiao Zheng said with a laugh.

"Hurry up and find a good stonemason to engrave the words of the saint, and then find an auspicious time, we will have a school opening celebration, and invite all the businesses that sponsor students to come and ask them to unveil it" Xiao Zheng's words caused everyone to laugh.

Five days later, Gong Dajun arrived at the kiln again, and the housekeeper said with a smile when he saw him: "The owner, you really expect things like a god, this Hu San was originally the foreman who was responsible for feeding the material in the periphery, this time under the coercion and temptation of the villain, he took advantage of the inattention of people to sneak into the inside, in fact, burning cement is very simple, it turns out that these sand, caustic soda these things are useless things, are eye-obstructive methods, its practical lime and clay are enough, the key is the process of grinding powder."

Gong Dajun snorted coldly and said: "Good job, but it's still not okay, we'll see it after the cement in this kiln is burned, if it doesn't work again, you just wait to ask for food."

"The villain used the head guarantee this time," the butler said confidently this time.

In the afternoon, the kiln fire was extinguished, looking at the things carried out by the potter, Gong Dajun felt a little reliable in his heart, and after grinding it into powder, he soaked it in water, and looked at the change of cement and the difference between the non-Ren Bao on the construction site, Gong Dajun laughed wildly and said: "This time our hard work is not in vain."

"Congratulations to the owner, congratulations to the owner!" The housekeeper also patted his ass and said.

"The owner, do you see if the villain's money was deducted last time, can you be gracious to a large number of people......" The housekeeper smiled flatteringly, seeing that he wanted Gong Dajun to take back his words.

"No, the reason for deducting your money is to make you remember, and you can't do such stupid things in the future."

"Immediately let Chen Dong change all the more than a dozen kilns to burn cement, and in a few days, the cement in Hangzhou City will be the world of my Gong family, haha......."

The housekeeper glanced at Gong Dajun, and said cautiously with a smiling face: "Owner, you see that I have just started, is it better to be careful, so as not to let Xiao Zheng find out, after all, my formula is ......."

"What are you afraid of, he just found out, and at worst, he can seize this kiln himself. Having said that, this kiln is not mine at all, how can he prove that I stole this recipe from him", Gong Dajun said triumphantly.

Looking at the housekeeper's somewhat hesitant eyes, Gong Dajun looked at him with contempt and continued: "Since ancient times, wealth and danger have been sought, the key is to find the right backer, when my father was alive in the Sui Dynasty, he found Yang Su, and the Yang Guang family failed to treat my family, I don't believe that he Xiao Zheng can be better than Yang Guang?" Even the current Li family dynasty, I also have a backer."

Gong Dajun said very proudly: "To tell you the truth, don't say this kiln, even if there are a few kilns, I don't care!" As long as I have the formula, plus our brick kiln in Jiangnan, I can bloom everywhere, Zeng Zhaoyi's group of dogs are not sold as treasures, this time the cement Lao Tzu also has it, I want to double the money I didn't make on the masonry, I see what he Xiao Zheng can do with me? ”。
