16 A big feast celebrates success, and there is a way to make money
As mentioned last time, after the resumption of glass firing, it was time to come out of the mold, Liang Wenzhen offered a plan to Mrs. Xu, and sent people to publicize it, leading the people who made trouble before, so as to catch the current situation and prevent future troubles. At night, Jiang Zhao and others in the courtyard really found the traces of the thief and pursued him, but let him escape, only picking up a piece of jade pendant left by the thief and handing it to Xu Taigong. Miss Xu thinks about Liang Wenzhen, who has magical means, has good literary talents and good character, and is in the dating pavilion. Liang Wenzhen searched his stomach in response to Miss Xu's request. Xu Miaoyin was amazed and fell in love. Liang Wenzhen didn't dare to be enthusiastic because he was at the end of his rope and hurriedly said goodbye. Miss Xu fell into love, but unfortunately the flowing water was unintentional and she was stunned. For the first trial production of glass, the qualified ones were selected and finally annealed, and the glass was finally successfully fired.
Mrs. Xu's mansion invested a lot of money in glass firing, and after some twists and turns, now it has finally become a thing, and the Xu Mansion is naturally happy and wants to celebrate. The night is four, but the lights of Xu's mansion are gradually dispersed, red lanterns, dim candlelight, shadows and shadows, and people are boiling.
"It's unexpected to see this glass made today, but it's also really surprising!" Mrs. Xu was full of smiles, swept the audience, and said: "The old man has long been familiar with this glass, and I saw it in person today, compared to what Brother Liang said, it is more than 100 times more beautiful." Xu Taigong picked up a glass plate from the display table, and his thin hand merged with the plate, which was like a hand inlaid in the plate for a while, and then with the light turned off, only to see that the plate was missing in his hand, which was really exquisite and magical.
The rich people who were invited to come to watch, although they all had a lot of money, there were many strange things in their collections, and when they saw the glass with their own eyes, they couldn't help but praise the glass and were very interested.
"Mrs. Xu, you have a talent like Liang Gongzi, like a tiger with wings, and in the future, you will make money every day and make a fortune, which is enviable!" Zhao Yuan's eyes were hot. Rich people from all walks of life have responded to the peace, and they have been polite and social, which is not a problem.
Liang Wenzhen saw that the rich people were so interested in glass, and this scene was expected to be wide-ranging. I thought to myself, if I had an auction on the spot and used what modern so-called hunger marketing was, even if I sold half of the glass, I would make a lot of money. After such a calculation, Liang Wenzhen privately told Xu Liang, the princess, about his plan. After hearing this, Xu Taigong thought it was amazing, and nodded again and again: "According to Brother Liang's idea, there is such a wonderful method as dare to love." Xu Liang's conscience naturally praised it, and now that he heard his father's promise, he went to prepare to stop, and he admired Liang Wenzhen's shrewdness more and more.
Liang Wenzhen stood in the center of the crowd and said loudly: "Everyone, be quiet, listen to the next word." The noisy crowd gradually quieted down. The contemptible people were trusted by Mrs. Xu, and invested money to build this glass under it. Thanks to the blessing of Taigong, Huang Tian did not give up, and today he has achieved something. Liang Wenzhen paused, raised his voice and continued: "This is the first furnace of glass, which is of great significance. Today, I discussed with the princess, endured the pain, and resold half of it to everyone on the scene. ”
The crowd exploded, and there was a lot of discussion about the selling price of this glass. Liang Wenzhen gave Xu Liang a look, Xu Liang stood up, and everyone's eyes turned to Xu Liang, and the surroundings immediately quieted down. Xu Liang relied on Liang Wenzhen's wording and said: "Glass is a very magical thing, the founding of the Great Song Dynasty has never existed so far, we dare not set the price in vain, and in view of the extraordinary significance, if it is sold to you, it is very distressing." Xu Liang was embarrassed.
"Indeed, to sell such a treasure, Uncle Xu is reluctant." Liang Wenzhen said. Everyone was curious, whether to sell or not, they had to give a letter. Liang Wenzhen then said: "Because I have shares in the lower part, I am in a hurry to ask for money and silver, and I can sell half of it." All of you here are rich families, and naturally they don't skimp on money. Rare is expensive, the first kiln glass, only more than 30 pieces, leaving half of the collection commemoration, can sell only a dozen pieces. ”
Everyone was complimented, and naturally they were happy, and in order to show that they had a rich family and a lot of money, they were willing to pay a lot of money to buy one back. Now this descendant Liang Wenzhen is reluctant to say the price, and he can't help but be anxious: the silver two is a grandson, and he can earn it again after spending it, a rare treasure that the Great Song Dynasty has never had, who doesn't want to put one at home and add some style.
In the midst of all the discussions, Liang Wenzhen was calm and calm. He whispered to Xu Fan for a while, and gave him an affirmative look. Xu Fan understood and said to everyone: "Everyone, don't be impatient. The crowd fell silent again. My father-in-law and Liang Gongzi were very worried about this pricing matter, and after thinking about it again and again, they couldn't make a decision, and finally decided to set the price by yourself. Xu Fan said loudly.
"We'll set the price?" "How are we decided?" "yes, yes, that's weird." "What's going on, what's going on?" The wealthy people in the hall were gossiping and noisy.
"Everyone, listen to me," Liang Wenzhen said, "We only set a cost price for this batch of glass, and you can bid for it, and the one with the highest price will win." ”
Everyone suddenly realized that it was a fresh way to sell, interesting and interesting. Of course, those with rich family backgrounds are confident and determined to compete; But the capital is slightly weaker, and it is difficult in an instant, and the atmosphere is gradually different for a while, and a few are happy and a few are sad.
I saw that there were more than 30 bowls, plates, cups, stacks, and cups, large and small, arranged on the table in the center of the hall. From each point of view, the ice sculpture is average, and it is smoother than ice; The jade is average, and it is more transparent than jade; reflects the red halo of the lantern and the dim yellow of the candlelight, but it reflects a little color; From another angle, it seems to be disappearing again, like a fog lost on the platform, and the moon is maze, looming.
According to Liang Wenzhen's instructions, the Xu Mansion family took half of it and kept only half to sell. "Okay, now sell our first treasure: the glass plate." Liang Wenzhen said, "The starting price is five taels of silver." ”
"I'm ten taels." "Twelve." "Fifteen." "Fifty!" …… The price rose steadily, but suddenly, there was a humane: "One hundred and fifty taels!" Everyone was amazed, and the one who shouted the price was a well-known rich man in the county, Li Yuanwai. As soon as the latest price came out, everyone in the Xu Mansion was surprised, and everyone was happy. "One hundred and fifty-one!" "One hundred and fifty-two!"
Li Yuan was smug and sneered at the others. He opened his voice slowly: "Two hundred taels!" "Two hundred and twenty taels!" "Two hundred and twenty-two once! Two hundred and twenty-two! Two hundred and twenty-two three! Liang Wenzhen slapped the table and said, "Okay! Deal! This treasure now belongs to the old man who offered two hundred and twenty taels. ”
The bidding "winner" came to receive the glass baby, and it was impossible to tell whether he was crying or laughing. But when he saw him wrapping the plate, leaving a note, he walked away. The crowd laughed and leaned forward. It turned out that the person's name was Liu Tian, and his family resources were not as good as those of everyone present, and he had no intention of competing for treasures. Who knew that this Li Yuanwai saw the doorway, although the price was already quite high, he closed his mouth and stopped raising the price, and went with others. Other buyers are not stupid, and they put Liu Tian together, and they have the right to entertain.
The first one was sold, followed by the second. With the first piece as the standard, everyone is no longer shabby, and the price is higher than the other. Two hundred and two became the lowest price in the market, and the top three were Li Yuanwai's three hundred taels and two hundred and eighty taels, and Chu Gongzi's two hundred and seventy taels.
The buyer only managed to fight the price, and the Xu Mansion just watched dumbfounded, thinking in his heart. More than a dozen utensils were sold, and more than 3,000 taels of silver were collected. "Do you want to put the remaining ten or so pieces up for auction?" Xu Liang said to Liang Wenzhen. "Don't be greedy for long-term business. The reputation is outside, and there is no worry about sales. Liang Wenzhen said with a smile. Xu Liang thought so.
In the middle of the night, everyone went home. Up and down the Xu Mansion, there was a burst of picking, the lights were dimming, but he didn't sleep all night. After getting the sweetness of this first transaction, Xu Taigong Xu Liang became more and more confident in Liang Wenzhen's business experience, trusted him more, and no longer regarded him as an outsider at all. On the second day, Xu Taigong summoned Liang Wenzhen and Xu Liang to discuss the expansion of production.
Liang Wenzhen said: "The glass factory does not have to be expanded. Just send a blacksmith to make some more molds, and it is better to increase the variety of molds. Xu Taigong and Xu Liang were puzzled. Liang Wenzhen explained: "We need a lot of investment to burn glass, expand the scale, and add a huge amount of silver. The more glass there is, the less valuable it becomes. It's better to make some high-quality products first, and then slowly do it on a large scale. Now that there was last night's auction, the price of glass is naturally expensive. If you produce too much, you may not be able to keep the high price. ”
After hearing this, Xu Taigong and Xu Liang suddenly realized, and they both praised Liang Wenzhen for being rich and fearful. According to the prior agreement, Liang Wenzhen can get half of the profit. After the mantissa of more than 3,000 taels is used to increase the mold, the remaining 3,000 will be divided equally with the Xu Mansion after deducting the wages invested before and the wages that have not been paid. At this point, Liang Wenzhen also has a small family capital. After some thought, he divided his money and property between one hundred and fifty taels and Xu Fan. Xu Fan resolutely refused, until Liang Wenzhen was angry and ordered him to accept it, and Brother Fan no longer refused.
The glass business is in full swing, and Liang Wenzhen has never delayed in kung fu. The Dragon Boat Festival is approaching, and after these days of hard practice, Wing Chun has made rapid progress, and he is already a kung fu master; Xu Fan followed the practice, advanced by leaps and bounds, and was no longer as strong as before, without the power to restrain the chicken. Now, Xu Fan no longer needs to stand on the pile, he can start practicing moves, as long as he has more time, he can practice with Liang Wenzhen and improve together.
Wing Chun is relatively easy to start with among all kinds of boxing techniques, but if you want to practice to perfection and practice to be able to fight against seven or eight ordinary people, you have to work hard. The standing stake of Wing Chun is called the two-word tong sheep horse, which stands like a quail. The process of training strength and skills is a long-term process of gradual transition from slow to practical skills. Through the practice of dismantling, the potential of the human body is stimulated, the qi is kept unstoppable, and the strength is continuous, the horse steps are solid, the breath is natural, the spirit is not scattered, the body is tireless and the body is naturally changing. Wing Chun is dominated by the triangle body of a small flat horse, with a turning horse and a Japanese punch. The routines have small thoughts, bridge finding, and marking, and the instruments include six-point cow sticks, double knives, etc. If you can practice a good inch of strength, that is, exert force within a few inches, and open the stele and crack the stone, it will be even more amazing.
At the Dragon Boat Festival, Mrs. Xu's grandson, Miss Xu's cousin, Lin Feng, who was already a talented son at a young age, had a banquet with Liang Wenzhen, which led to a battle of tongues, which was wonderful and interesting. Find out what happens next, and listen to the next breakdown.
