Guo Ye was taken aback and said, "I can't help it, I can't do it!" This is the technology that your Zhou clan relies on for a living, and I can't ask for it. ”

Zhou Zhengcheng smiled bitterly: "This technology is important and important, and it is not important to say that it is not important." Let's say he's important, our Zhou family relies on this to eat. It doesn't matter, before you came, our family may not have been better off than others. ”

"But now that you monopolize this technology, you Zhou will be able to make a fortune."

"But it's all thanks to you!" Zhou Zhengcheng said quite sincerely: "The world says that our bureaucrats can live a good life, it is the credit of King Qin and Li County, only our Zhou family knows, in this, your credit is the greatest." ”

Guo Ye really couldn't answer, so he had to say: "So you want to deliver this technology to me?" It's not next to each other. ”

"Why not next to each other? Engong, do you still remember, I think that on the way to the county office, you made a bet with me that if the county order can be enforced impartially, I will preach to the people around me that most of the officials in the imperial court are incorruptible, and if the bureaucrats are wronged, they can go to the official. ”

"Uh...... But there's such a thing, isn't it boring on the road? I'm just saying it casually. ”

"You said it casually, but I did it seriously. In fact, I not only did what you said, but also explained the events of the day to the family elders as they were. After listening to it, everyone is sorry for you! ”

Guo Ye was like a monk who was like a second monk at a loss, and said, "What have I been wronged by?" Do I need you to complain for me? ”

Zhou Zhengcheng exclaimed: "Engong is really a high wind and bright festival, he does not expect to repay his kindness, and he does not want to be known." It's just that I advise you, sometimes it's not good to be too noble. ”

"What do you mean by that?"

"You think, in the matter of moving Zhang Xin. There are three people who contribute the most, one is you, and two are Li Xianling and King Qin. Now that the matter is settled, Li County Ling has been promoted. Although King Qin could not be promoted, he gained a good reputation, and many people set up an immortal tablet for him. ”

Guo Ye asked puzzledly, "So what?" ”

"How?! What about you? What about yourself? What benefits do you get in this? It's the same thing for our staff, don't you feel wronged? Don't you think the common people are ungrateful? ”

"I ...... Of course I don't think so. Of course, Guo Ye couldn't tell his true identity, so he had to say: "I just want to be worthy of my heart, and I didn't help you that day to get any benefits." ”

"Pedantic!"

"Huh?"

Zhou Zhengcheng softened his tone and said, "I didn't mean to belittle you, but you really don't want to think like this." Haven't you heard the allusion of 'Zigong ransom people'? ”

"Uh...... I've heard of it. But I don't think this thing is quite the same as the allusion of 'Zigong redeeming people'. ”

"What's the difference, isn't it all about doing good deeds without asking for anything in return? Engong, our Zhou family has discussed, we can't let you waste so much effort, this technology is the benefit we give you! ”

"This benefit is really ......" Guo Ye smiled bitterly and said, "It's too big, I can't ......"

Speaking of this, Guo Ye's heart suddenly moved, and he changed his words: "This gift is really good, I like it very much." Just ......"

"How?"

"I can't ask for your skills for nothing. Let's build a business in partnership and ...... in the future."

Zhou Zhengcheng's face changed when he brushed the ground, and said, "No...... No way...... You can't build a business name! ”

"What? Can't you trust me? Don't feel like you can do business with me? ”

"Of course not."

"That means the elders of the clan don't trust me?"

"Not really."

"That's ......"

Zhou Zhengcheng sighed and said, "Don't guess, I'll tell you the truth, I lied just now." In fact, although the profit of blue clamp is large, the process is complicated, and it is not so easy to do. The reason why the villain was able to repay the money so quickly was mostly made up by the clan. ”

Guo Ye said: "I understand, you are afraid that I will not accept your gift, so you deliberately lied and said that it is easy to make money." ”

"Yes. However, although the speed at which Blue Clip makes money is not as exaggerated as I said, it can be regarded as very lucrative. The reason why I refused you to establish a business bank is not because I don't trust you, but because our Zhou family can't make up that much money. ”

"It doesn't matter. You don't have to pay for it. Guo Ye said: "I will pay 500,000 yuan myself, and the government will contribute 400,000 yuan to establish a commercial bank." As for your Zhou family, as long as you come up with this technique for making blue clips. I'll give you a 10% share. ”

Zhou Zhengcheng was shocked and said, "Isn't that equivalent to giving our Zhou family 100,000 yuan for nothing?" This...... That's too much. There are only more than 100 people in my Zhou family, and it is worth so much to sell us. ”

"That's not a lot of money." Guo Yedao: "Our business bank will not be limited to Maozhou in the future, but will also develop in Meizhou, Yazhou and other places." It is necessary to build dozens, or even hundreds of workshops, and make every effort to produce blue clamps, only 100,000 yuan, and it will soon be earned. ”

Zhou Zhengcheng thought for a moment and said, "You have built so many workshops, and there are many people, and I am afraid that the technology of the blue clamp will not be kept secret for long." ”

"Confidentiality? No need to keep it secret. Guo Ye shook his head and said, "As soon as the workshop opens, whether it is to purchase raw materials or sell goods. are much stronger than single-door detached households. Even if someone steals the technology, how can they compete with the workshop? ”

"But the profit ......"

Guo Ye smiled indifferently and said, "If the output is large, the profit will naturally decrease." However, the dye used to make the blue jacket is unique to Shu. Relative to the whole country, the supply is still insufficient. It's not low, we have small profits but quick turnover. ”

There is another sentence that Guo Ye didn't say, that is, he doesn't care about the profits of these workshops.

The reason why Guo Ye asked for Zhou Zhengcheng's technology was not to be persuaded by his words, but for the sake of the bureaucrats.

The easiest way to smoothly change the land and return the bureaucrats is to make them rich. To put it simply, it is to change them from barefoot to shoeed.

Food and clothing are sufficient to know etiquette, and poor mountains and bad waters come out of the people. These two sentences are positive and negative, revealing a truth - whether or not they are good citizens depends mainly on the economic foundation.

After Zhang Xin's rectification, the bureaucrats in Maozhou have a way to make money. In the future, it must not be difficult to change the land and return to the stream.

And what about other state capitals?

Especially in the three prefectures of Ya, Qiong and Mei, which participated in the rebellion, the production was extremely damaged, and after the rebellion was quelled, how could the people of the three states make a living?

Now, with the technology to make the blue clip, it's easy to do. Set up a workshop to provide relief for work. Presumably, it can absorb many people who have no means of living.

Especially for the wingmen, the dye needed for the blue jacket was mainly the blue grass on the mountain. They can get rich by planting and gathering bluegrass.

When they get used to this kind of life, even if someone instigates them to rebel, it will not be so easy. In the future, if you change the land and return to the stream, you will definitely get twice the result with half the effort.

Therefore, the political significance of Guo Ye's opening of these workshops is far greater than the economic significance. Even if it's a loss, it's nothing.

As for the Zhou family? It's not a loss.

Although they announced this unique technology, because they have shares in the workshop, it is no problem to find some jobs in the workshop. There are only more than 100 people in the Zhou family, and there is no pressure on dozens of people to arrange them, excluding the old and the young.

It's easier to be in charge of things in the workshop than to work hard to make a blue clip, right? It's a win-win.

Although Zhou Zhengcheng didn't think about Guo Ye as much, he was just worried that his benefactor would suffer. Seeing that Guo Ye was full of confidence, he stopped persuading him and nodded his head in agreement.

Without further ado, the preparations for the Blue Clamp Workshop began immediately, and Guo Ye handed over the task to Li Yifu.

As a traitor who left his name in history, it is simply a knife to kill a chicken to do such a trivial matter. In less than a month, the first Blue Clamp Workshop was officially opened.

Unexpectedly, with a large number of supplies, the price of blue jacket valerian has risen instead of falling. The reason is very simple, the production of this thing was too small before, even if it was several times the profit, it couldn't make any money. Merchants can buy it or not, and no one will sell it.

However, as soon as the production increased, it became possible to get rich by selling blue clips, so merchants competed to buy them, which temporarily pushed up the price.

The profits of the workshop are extremely rich, and the Zhou family has received the first dividend, and it goes without saying that they are happy and grateful to their fathers.

The guys in the workshop also get high wages.

For a time, going to work in a government-run workshop became a good job that everyone envied. Li Daxian order, ah, no, it should be called Li Dadudu, in addition to the name of the Qing official, there is also a reputation of nodding into gold.

He wasted no time in announcing that in the future, he would not only build a workshop for blue and valerian, but also build a workshop for red and yellow, yellow and green valerian.

Although it was only a painting of bread, the people saw that the days were getting better and better, and it was enough to satisfy their hunger.

With an abundant treasury and a peaceful and contented people, in just a few months, Maozhou seemed to have become a paradise, in stark contrast to the neighboring rebellious three states.

It turned out that it was a bureaucrat from Maozhou who ran to Sanzhou and took refuge in Yang Sheng. Now the situation is reversed, it is the wingmen of the three states and even the Han people who run to Maozhou, and there are even deserters from the rebel army.

Whether it was Lu Tianyou, the marshal of the rebel army, or Yang Sheng, the commander of the wingmen, they all saw the crisis contained in this matter.

However, now they don't care about it, because there are more urgent things waiting for them to solve.

This incident is the Chongyang Alliance on the ninth day of the ninth month of September.
