Chapter 88 Competitive Bidding
On the second day, Lu Ye and Cao Zhen naturally came to Sikong Mansion again respectfully, invited Xun Yu to get into the carriage, and galloped towards the paper mill outside the city. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info
Xun Yu's face was not too good-looking, so Lu Ye and Cao Zhen were both a little uneasy in their hearts.
If Xun Yu really forcibly wanted to incorporate this paper mill into the official camp like yesterday, in fact, Lu Ye and Cao Zhen did not have any good methods. But Lu Ye swore to Cao Zhen that everything was under control. This made Cao Zhen settle down his hanging heart.
What the two didn't know was that the reason why Xun Yu's face was not good-looking today was not because of the two of them. It was because the battle report was sent from the front line in Xuzhou yesterday, and there was an urgent shortage of grain and grass. Xun Yu was busy with this matter, and finally found time to come to the paper mill with Lu Ye and Cao Zhen, but he was still worried in his heart.
The battle on the front line is tight, and although Xun Yu is sitting in the rear, he is still worried.
When the group came to the workshop, Xun Yu frowned: "Are you still looking for someone to stay here?" ”
Xun Yu naturally discovered the generals who were wandering around that Cao Zhen transferred from the Cao family.
Cao Zhen nodded and said, "Although Zihang and I are stupid, we also know that this thing must be kept secret. Otherwise, once it leaks out and falls into the hands of someone with a heart, it will be waxy at that time. ”
Xun Yu nodded slightly, and Cao Zhen handled it quite well.
It's so wonderful, and it's so inexpensive. If it falls into the hands of outsiders, I am afraid that there will be a lot of trouble. Thinking of this, Xun Yu suddenly seemed to remember something.
That is to say...... Anyone can learn this improved papermaking technique of yours? Xun Yu suddenly discovered a fatal problem. If this is really the case, then what this papermaking technology can bring may be greatly discounted.
"It's not for everyone to learn, it's just that it's not something sophisticated. As long as someone can get the paper and spend some effort to study, maybe they can imitate it. But this problem is not completely unsolvable...... Lu Ye explained on the side.
"Oh? You talk about it. ”
"Although the technical content of this paper is not high, after all, we have improved it first. One step ahead, that's an advantage. As long as our technology is constantly evolving, there is no need to worry about this problem at all. ”
"Oh? Innovation? How to innovate the old and come up with a new law? ”
"Why don't you come with us into the workshop?"
"Okay."
As they spoke, the group walked into the workshop. Lu Ye dared to let Xun Yu come to the workshop to see, and naturally he also had his own self-confidence.
The innovation of paper is just a sentence to say, but it is not easy to do. Lu Ye put forward the concept and let the craftsmen below work hard to change. Lu Ye believes that with his vision spanning 1,800 years, he will be able to cover the whole world with this improved papermaking technology.
And Xun Yu, who entered the workshop, was also eye-opening.
In the past, Lord Sikong, who was high on the top, saw the scene of the people at the bottom working very down-to-earth at this time. Lu Ye on the side was slowly explaining to Xun Yu.
"These workers are good people we have brought in from the villages around here. They are all hard-working people, and now is the slack season, and they can also earn some money to support their families. ”
"These papermaking processes are separated, so the efficiency and cost of papermaking can become cheaper."
Xun Yu nodded while watching.
The issue of employment, both in that era, was a very important issue for those in power. Chen Sheng and Wu Guang were unemployed, so there was an uprising in Daze Township. Li Zicheng was unemployed, so he had the king to enter Beijing. I ...... after the Taizu librarian lost his job.
Of course, Xun Yu cares about whether the life of the people under his rule is rich or not. At present, this paper mill seems to be able to solve some problems.
After walking around the paper mill, Xun Yu finally had a rough understanding of this thing.
Out of the paper mill, Xun Yu was a little silent.
Finally, he asked, "Tell me more about your plans." ”
Lu Ye and Cao Zhen glanced at each other, and they were secretly relieved in their hearts. Listening to Xun Yu's tone, it proves that yesterday's matter is still something to continue to discuss. Not at all.
"Okay."
"I believe that the things that our improved papermaking technology can bring can also be seen. Zidan and I didn't dare to live in secret, so we planned to make a bidding ...... for this thing. ”
"Bidding?"
"Well, our paper mill is in Xudu City, but this paper is a matter for the benefit of all people, and it cannot be limited to one city and one place. Therefore, we plan to give up the sales and production methods of this paper to others through a bidding method. In this way, we can not only guarantee a certain profit, but also spread the paper all over the world. Isn't it a pleasure? ”
Xun Yu's eyes lit up suddenly. If you really follow Lu Ye's method, then there seems to be a solution to the matter of burning the grain and grass on the eyebrows.
But in this way, once this papermaking technology is apportioned, there will be no follow-up profits at all. This made Xun Yu a little painful. So his eyes fell on Lu Ye's body again, wanting to hear what Lu Ye's opinion was.
Lu Ye touched his nose and continued, "Of course...... I know that Sikong-sama may be a little apprehensive about this approach. But as before, there is a solution. ”
"That is the competitiveness of the goods, the same paper, naturally whoever is cheaper is more popular. Or at the same price, whoever has the finer paper is more popular. We have this confidence, and the paper we make is unique in the whole world. ”
Of course, Lu Ye has a confidence, and there will be a dazzling array of papers in the future. Lu Ye has not seen it before, and with a little brain, he can make it.
Xun Yu nodded slightly: "Then what do you need me to do?" ”
Lu Ye let out a long sigh of relief, and said in his heart, you said so, you shouldn't have blackened our share, right? So he said: "We hope that Lord Sikong can invite merchants from all over the world to gather in Xudu in the name of Cao Gong." Then the share of this papermaking technology is sold in a competitive bidding mode. ”
"How are you going to bid?" The situation in the south and the north is different, is it possible that the price will be the same? Yingchuan and Xiangyang have become more and more prosperous in recent years. In the northern and southern barbarian lands, there ......were very few scholars. Xun Yu expressed his worries.
