Chapter 89: Xun Yu's vigilance
Lu Ye explained: "In the bidding model, the final pricing is not decided by us. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć infoAll we need to do is come up with a way to see how much they can afford to pay for the final price. ā
"Whether it's the scholars of the Central Plains or the merchants of other places. We can give them this right as long as we can afford it. ā
"And as long as they want to continue to get technical support from us, they will still honestly deliver the money to our packages when the time comes."
Speaking of this, Lu Ye couldn't help but feel a little complacent. This kind of franchise model is not uncommon in later generations, as long as your core technology can be guaranteed, then there will naturally be a steady stream of liquidity to converge.
However, Lu Ye's complacency fell in Xun Yu's eyes, which made Xun Yu a little angry. You kid, you just said yesterday that you should study the ways of these merchants less, and it seems that you didn't listen to it at all. In Xun Yu's view, business is just a small way after all, and he really doesn't want to see his little junior brother get into the way of businessmen and can't extricate himself.
So he took out a five-baht coin from his bosom, put it in Lu Ye's hand, and said, "This copper coin is a good thing, as long as you have enough copper coins, then most of the things in the whole world can be bought." But there are some things that money can't buy after all. For example, the will of our hearts, and the ...... of aspirations we have. You are a smart person and there are some things that I hope you will be able to make a good choice. ā
Then he turned his face to look at Cao Zhendao, who was on the side: "The same is true for the true son, Cao Gong values you very much, this copper-smelling thing, if it is not necessary, you don't need to touch it." ā
Lu Ye and Cao Zhen glanced at each other, not knowing why Xun Yu suddenly said such a sentence.
Then Xun Yu said: "Some things are actually not as simple as you think. Do you think that the right of a mere commonplace is really great now? Still delusional that I should gather the whole world of merchants? Maybe I think a little too much of me. ā
"Yu, Yan, and Xu Sanzhou, naturally, it is impossible for them all to be handed over to you to deal with. First of all, you may not have this ability, there are too many entanglements in these three states, and it is impossible for you two boys to have a good way to deal with it. "It's not that Xun Yu coaxed Lu Ye and Cao Zhen, but that he really thinks about these two juniors.
The scholars of Yanzhou have always been at odds with Cao Cao, and now this papermaking technique has the shadow of Cao Zhen, which will inevitably remind people of Cao Cao. In this case, how could those nobles be willing to let go like this? At that time, Cao Zhen and Lu Ye will inevitably face more trouble.
"The outcome of the Xuzhou front is now undecided, even if Lu Bu surrenders. At that time, there will still be a bunch of follow-up things to deal with, so it is impossible for Xuzhou to be handed over to you. ā
"Of course, your improvement in papermaking is naturally a great achievement."
But again, most of the things in this world are actually very different from what you imagine in your mind. I can't promise you anything right now, but I'll do my best to keep your part. As for the rest, I can't guarantee it either. ā
"You're doing a good job, and this paper is good. But business is not a road after all. What we scholars should think about should be the right way to save the country and the people. These trails, let's get out of it early. ā
These words fell on Lu Ye's ears, but they made Lu Ye feel a little strange. I don't know what the meaning of Xun Yu is when he says this. So he was a little confused, and after Xun Yu said this, he left the paper mill.
He dropped another sentence from afar: "In three days, I will prepare a party for you." When the time comes, you will prepare what you should prepare, and within three days, you can ask me for anything. ā
Then he waved his sleeve robe and left.
ā¦ā¦
ā¦ā¦
"Lord Sikong...... What does that mean? Looking at Xun Yu's departing back, Cao Zhen swallowed a mouthful of saliva and asked Lu Ye.
Lu Ye said angrily: "You ask me, who do I ask?" ā
Cao Zhen let out a long sigh: "Lord Sikong is too smart, Zihang, I am afraid that he has already seen those calculations of you." That's what wakes us up. ā
Cao Zhen has a sense of respect and awe for Xun Yu. Respect, naturally, because Cao Cao has been fighting outside all the year round, but this rear is peaceful. Most of the credit goes to Xun Yu. It is precisely because of this that Xun Yu's ability Cao Zhen knows clearly. I didn't dare to make any moths in front of Xun Yu at all.
Lu Ye shook his head slightly, is Xun Yu really alerting himself and Cao Zhen? Maybe not. Lu Ye felt that Xun Yu should have some deep meaning, but what was it?
"Let's think about what happened next, Lord Sikong didn't say anything about our request. Now we can only cross the river by feeling the stones, and slowly figure it out. ā
In this matter, Lu Ye felt that his brain seemed to be a little unable to think about it. Could it be that your IQ has dropped? Thinking of this, Lu Ye laughed silently. Maybe I've been thinking about it a little too much lately.
Cao Zhen nodded: "Then do we still want to continue to expand the scale of this paper mill now?" ā
Lu Ye said: "Of course. Even if we can't get the share of Xuzhou, Yanzhou, and Yuzhou, at least the vicinity of the capital city is firmly in our hands. We want to take Xudu City as the center and spread it to the whole world. So we have to do our best, we have to have enough paper in stock. ā
Cao Zhen said: "Okay, then I'll send someone to recruit some more workers." Find a place to build a new workshop. Otherwise, this one workshop alone will not be enough. ā
"I can't be responsible for these things, right?" Lu Ye said with a smile.
Cao Zhen nodded.
Then Lu Ye seemed to remember something, pulled Jiang Xiaoyu over beside him, and said to Cao Zhen: "Zidan, this kid has some talent in business. Why don't you find someone to take him with you and see if it's a seedling that can be shaped. ā
Lu Ye thought about Xun Yu's words for a while, although he didn't know the specific meaning contained in them. But he also knew that Xun Yu didn't seem to be very satisfied with his business. But there are some things that only you can handle.
Jiang Xiaoyu followed himself for a period of time, barely able to read and hyphenation, and half-baked use of the four operations. With these skills, it shouldn't be a big problem to settle an account or something.
At the beginning, Jiang Xiaoyu was brought out of Yulong Tower, and promised to give him a future. Now, too, it's time for him to take a small step.
