Chapter 43: Beauty Comes
“
Five thousand taels of gold? ”
Gu Ren frowned.
Five thousand taels of gold is equivalent to 10 million yuan, and in ancient times, when commercial development was lagging behind, having so much gold was completely a giant! Although there is a lot of paper that can be produced in the pool of Jinbao's house, it will definitely not sell for 5,000 taels of gold. This merchant was willing to spend 5,000 taels of gold to buy it, and the drunkard did not care about wine, but probably because of his paper-making skills.
"Kampar, Kuwapi. Did that boss want you to come to me? ”
Zhang Jinbao and Guapi were shocked.
"Wow, Boss, you've even thought of that......"
"Gu Gongzi is really a master!"
"Simply be neat, don't say anything, hold this box of gold and get out quickly."
Gu Ren said impatiently.
"Hehe, don't be angry, boss, it's true."
Guapi said the details.
This merchant from Chang'an was a Hu merchant from the Western Regions, who came to the Hongjia papermaking workshop in Qujiang to purchase a batch of paper. Unexpectedly, Zhang Jinbao's small workshop robbed the Hong family's business, and he was a little curious. I got a few pieces of paper, and after comparing them, I was surprised. The paper of the Hong family's papermaking workshop and the paper of this small workshop are obviously not at the same level.
They immediately found the small workshop of Zhang Jinbao in the south of the city, and after seeing their simple papermaking equipment, their hearts were even more excited. It's incredible, such a simple tool, such a simple process, can magically make such a good paper, they are completely shocked. Subsequently, they immediately flew pigeons and sent a message to the boss in Shaozhou. Their boss immediately rushed to Qujiang, and after learning the details, he made a decisive decision to buy all the paper in the small workshop and pay a deposit of fifty taels of gold. And he was willing to buy the output of the small workshop within five years with five thousand taels of gold.
The problem is that the pulp in the pool of this small workshop can be produced for a month at most. After it's finished, there will be no production, how to produce it in five years? If they make another pool of the same pulp, even if they prepare for a year, they may not be able to make a pool of exactly the same paper. What's more, when this pool of pulp was prepared, Gu Ren's "secret recipe" was added.
"I see."
Gu Ren smiled. As the saying goes, there is no business without treachery, and there is nothing to do with the pie in the sky, except for the big white dog Ah Yin, no one has waited for it.
"Gu Gongzi, look...... This is the boss's contract. ”
Zhang Jinbao carefully took out a piece of paper from his arms and handed it to Gu Ren.
Gu Ren read the contract carefully, and after reading it, a sneer appeared on the corner of his mouth. This businessman is also treacherous enough, he actually plays word games in it, and after five years of production, it is completely up to them to renew the contract or terminate the contract, and there is no need to ask for the consent of Party B. There is also a time limit to the personal freedom of all owners of Party B. If the specified production task is not reached, the production quality will be compensated tenfold! Ten times five thousand taels of gold, but fifty thousand taels of gold............ Where is this special sales contract, it is simply a deed of sale!
"Boss, how's it going? I brought this big boss with me. ”
Gwapide.
"Well, no."
Gu Ren casually tore the contract into pieces and threw it on the ground.
Zhang Jinbao and Guapi looked at the contract crumpled into paper balls on the ground in amazement.
"Brother, this is five thousand taels ......of gold, ahhhh
Guapi crawled on the ground and clung to the contract with a pop, and Zhang Jinbao also looked heartbroken.
"Senior brother, what's going on?"
Dandan asked, and Prince Ji was also suspicious.
"Well, it's just a small profiteer, and the contract is playing with word traps. Don't bother. Jinbao, Kuwapi, you can return this deposit and sell it according to the usual sales channels. Don't be greedy for small. If you want to make money, there are many ways. ”
Gu Ren waved his hand directly.
……
Zhang Jinbao and Guapi carried a small box of gold and went back sadly.
The noon sun was quietly scattered, the yard was warm, and the insects on the dragon locust were chirping endlessly.
Dan Dan and the two princes were under the dragon acacia, making charcoal and firewood, as well as some barbecue tools. Gu Ren agreed to them, and the three children were very excited to cook barbecue at night.
Gu Ren got up, sat at the door, wore Google Glasses and lazily basked in the sun, and browsed the relevant information on papermaking stored in Google Glasses by the way. Zhang Jinbao's small papermaking workshop, even if they don't cooperate with that profiteer, will develop in the future. The pulp is just a pool, and after the production is completed, the pulp must be made again.
There are only three methods of pulping, one is the separation of fibers by mechanical grinding. This method does not work. This is not the twenty-first century, there are no big machines.
The other is chemical pulping, which is used by many ancient papermaking workshops. The production conditions required for this method are harsh and complex, and the manpower and material resources are consumed a lot and the time is also long.
The third method is chemical mechanical pulping...... The method of chemical pretreatment of pulping raw materials with chemical agents to a certain extent, and then separation into pulp by mechanical grinding, at present, this method is more suitable for Gu Ren's current situation.
Gu Ren put down his glasses and looked at them seriously.
Time passed minute by minute, Gu Ren was looking at it, and suddenly frowned, and he faintly heard the sound of snoring. The sound of this breathing was only for a moment, but it had been accurately captured by him.
He's an excellent agent, and his sharp perception is very human.
He lost his eyes and removed his glasses.
I was just about to hold my breath and perceive the direction of the snoring again, but unexpectedly, the snoring sound came again, and the sound was much higher, and the ears could hear it without perceiving.
The direction of the snoring sound was in his room.
Gu Ren was taken aback...... This is worth it, someone actually fell asleep in his room, snoring, so arrogant! This is clearly a contempt for him, no matter how he says it, he is also the best agent of the twenty-first century, and he actually was lurked in the room and slept secretly, and he didn't even notice it.
What a failure......
The corners of Gu Ren's mouth curled, and he sneered in his heart: Don't think that my brother is injured, so I won't dare to clean you up!
He turned his head slightly, looking cautiously through the crack in the door.
Sure enough, he found the source of his breath.
Under the bed in his room, a big white fat dog was lying on the ground in all directions, with a long mouth, snoring and sleeping, and all the harax was flowing out.
Isn't this big fat meat the "Summoning Divine Beast" Husky Ayin that he caught back?
Gu Ren stumbled......
You dead dog, no wonder Dandan and the two princes couldn't find him, and he secretly hid under his bed.
He was just about to stand up, when the big white dog Ah Yin suddenly rolled over and got up, staring around vigilantly, obviously, it sensed that someone had spotted it.
Obviously, its sharpness is not much worse than Gu Ren's.
Gu Ren couldn't help but laugh and cry, this big fat dog was so interesting. Since it's hiding there, let it be hidden, and see how long it can hide. I don't know if Ah Yin, the big white dog, can summon something based on the picture in Google Glass, if so...... Is it possible to produce pulp directly on an industrial scale? Hehe, that's awesome...... When you have time, let Ah Yin try to summon something specific.
……
"Senior brother, you're awake! Come and see, how about our barbecue stand? If you put a few casseroles on top, you can even eat a small hot pot by the way......"
Long Huai's Dandan, seeing Gu Ren standing up, said with a smirk.
"Sir, can you look at this casserole?"
Prince Xin raised a casserole with a height of half a foot and a diameter of more than a foot in his hand.
"Yes, it's okay to eat big stewed dishes, don't talk about small hot pot."
Gu Ren smiled and walked down the steps towards Long Huai.
"Big stew? This name is so domineering, Mr. must make it for us to eat. ”
Prince Xin and Prince Ji swallowed.
Gu Ren: "Well, okay, in the future, Mr. will let you little guys taste the food of a certain hometown." ”
Prince Xin: "Really? ”
Prince Ji: "Haha, we are blessed, we knew that Xian'er would also come, she is more greedy than the two of us!" ”
While Gu Ren was talking to the three children, the door creaked open.
"Boss, it's a good thing, it's no problem this time, it's definitely pie in the sky!"
The fat guy Ding Guapi trotted over happily, and two people came in carefully behind him carrying a heavy suitcase.
"What is this?"
Gu Ren asked.
"It's all silver, a box of white silver, and it's given directly to you, sir."
Kuapi smiled.
"I am very happy about a box of silver, but Mr. is a wild tyrant, will he look at such a box of silver?"
Prince Xin said disdainfully.
"Ashin has a point! Is the gentleman a man who is short of money? ”
Prince Ji glanced at Guapi whitely.
Gu Ren also glared at Guapi in disgust.
Dandanhea smirked.
"A few little boys, this time there are not only money, but also people...... The super beautiful kind, the small one grows so big or it's the first time I've seen such a beautiful one, and it's better than Miss Kong...... Isn't our boss emotionally hurt......"
Guapi laughed very much.
"Ahem...... Got a girl? Prettier than Yishang? Ashin, hurry up and get Mr. Google's glass! ”
Gu Ren's spirit was shocked.
