Chapter 53: Slaughtering the Fat Sheep
A few days later, it was rumored in Beijing that the Pingyang Hou Mansion wanted to exchange papermaking for five hundred hectares of Shangtian by the Wei River, and had seen the magic of papermaking, and the citizens of Chang'an did not understand this exchange, the sales of mulberry paper produced by the Pingyang Hou Mansion were very good, and the total price of 500 pieces of new paper was 100 yuan, and each piece of paper was as big as four palms for adults.
Five hundred pieces of new paper are less than two catties, but they can be sold for the price of one stone of corn, which is considered a high price for any other luxury goods in Chang'an City, but the citizens of Chang'an do not think that the price is very expensive, and a horse of the worst quality white silk costs 3oo money, and the writing area is not a quarter of the five hundred pieces of paper.
The writing and preservation value of inferior silk silk is not high, at least 6oo money of white silk to have a higher quality guarantee, and the best quality of white Lian is worth 12oo money, the color of mulberry paper is yellowish, the surface is smooth and solid and strong, 500 pieces of paper can be written with hundreds of thousands of words in small characters, and the comparison between the two sides is still more cost-effective.
Pingyang Houfu produced mulberry paper quality and good price, and as the only supplier on the market, only in Chang'an sales more than a month to sell 12,000 new paper, many Beijing merchants almost unlimited to eat new paper, Houfu production on how much to buy, Houfu's output can not meet the huge market demand, the price of new paper all the way up to 23o money, for a time 10,000 people rushed to buy Chang'an paper expensive.
Last month's cumulative sales reached an astonishing 2oo yuan, and the money earned from selling paper alone for a month was worth the profit from selling iron in the first half of the year, and it is not to blame that Zhang Wuhou was greedy, and the princes, bureaucrats, businessmen, and even peddlers and pawns in the capital were all covetous, and the output of joining the Hou Mansion kept up, and the profit was at least ten times that of this figure.
The amazing profiteering frightened everyone, and the citizens of Chang'an were also looking forward to the next step of the Pingyang Hou Mansion, and now the inside and outside of Guanzhong know the magic of papermaking, as long as the Pingyang Hou Mansion reveals the expansion of the paper workshop, the plan to recruit paper craftsmen will attract countless mercenary people, even if there are a lot of broken skin scoundrels who go to the Hou Mansion every day, and many people are thinking about making a fortune from the plate of the Pingyang Hou Mansion.
"Oops! My son's life! You and I are like brothers, why didn't you say it earlier, you like the land in Weihe for your brother's family, you like the land in Weihe, and you buy it for your brother, why bother to give the fat in your mouth to the Dou family's shaft! Chen He tugged on Cao Shi's sleeve and felt a remorse in his heart, and his intestines were about to repent.
"You said a word, a few brothers abolished Dou Wan's kid, you like that piece of land, we will find a way to give you a way, can this papermaking technique be done for our brother?"
"Zishou, you're going to give a word! We're all going to die of you! ”
When more than a dozen liehous surrounded Cao, their chests beat loudly, and they kept saying that they wanted to pick up Zhang Wuhou Dou Wan and break it into seventeen or eighteen pieces, what kind of bullshit The Dou family is all a piece of scum, and the Dou family will beat a litter of old and young people into pigs' heads in minutes, and even the old lady of the Dou family has not escaped the fate of being beaten.
Guan Qiang patted him on the shoulder and said meaningfully: "Brother! I know you're struggling, is this okay? After Dou finished, the shaft was handed over to us to deal with, and afterwards we will give you a piece of land and send it to you, and you let us all earn some pocket money in papermaking, do you think it's okay? ”
Cao Shi arched his hands around and said: "It's not so strict, it's really not so strict, Zhang Wuhou wants to take advantage of me, I just think about how to make him suffer a loss and then vomit some blood, I went to the Inner History Mansion to meet with Zhang Wuhou before I came here, the papermaking for land has been all negotiated, I asked for a five-copy Dan book as evidence, and the rest of the transfer procedures are almost handled at this time." ”
The princes were like deflated balls: "Eh! Why are you so anxious? What is there to discuss, brothers, it's a pity to give that shaft for nothing! ”
Cao Shi didn't have the slightest look of frustration and chagrin: "How can it be cheap for nothing, I not only want him not to take advantage of it, but also spit out what he eats!" As for the papermaking technology, it is actually very easy to do, I asked to repeatedly emphasize in the Dan book that Zhang Wuhou must not transfer papermaking technology privately, if you want to transfer it must be proved by the right internal history in the center, I personally wrote down the Dan book to agree to the transfer, I do not agree that he can only use it himself, unauthorized dissemination must compensate the transaction amount as compensation, Zhang Wuhou declared that the land is worth 300 million money, and the breach of contract will compensate 300 million. ”
"Could it be that there is a secret hidden in it?"
Everyone urged for a long time, and Cao Shicai explained lightly: "I never mentioned that papermaking technology was only transferred to Zhang Wuhou's family, maybe Zhang Wuhou himself misunderstood, thinking that I would only transfer papermaking technology to him alone, and I am inconvenient to remind me of this misunderstanding, it's a pity!" ”
The princes were stunned for a moment, and then looked up to the sky and laughed.
"Pingyang Hou is really our loyal and unparalleled good brother, I said that papermaking must have our brother's share, you didn't believe it at the beginning." Chen He laughed triumphantly.
Zhou Zuoche snorted: "Okay, your Chen Zishi, you have to leave today, I want you to teach me the power of Zhou's boxing technique." ”
"I'll be afraid of you? Don't forget that I, Chen He, am also a strong man who has been in the Beijing Division for many years. ”
The big man in the two liehous, staring and picking up his sleeves to make a gesture to start, the liehou prince on the side was not in a hurry to cheer and coax, it seems that similar scenes often occur, and it doesn't take long for the two guys to really fight, and the cheering is getting louder and louder.
Cao Shile watched them wrestle and fight, there are no simple guys in the liehous who are mixed in Chang'an, the more active and outstanding ones are all experienced in a hundred battles, and they belong to the masters of the street brawl world, this kind of small fights and small movements are all aware of proportion, and there will never be a troublesome thing about getting injured, the attitude of the liehous is very interesting, fighting is to solve grievances rather than settle grievances, and the guys who don't know the severity will soon be kicked out of the circle.
After the brawl ended, Chen He and Zhou Zuoche each shook hands with two panda eyes, and praised each other's family heirloom with a blue nose and swollen face.
To solve the grievances, Cao Shi negotiated a deal with a group of liehous, and the papermaking technology was transferred to every liehou present, and each person only charged a symbolic transfer fee of 1oo money, this transaction was almost given to the liehous, but this free lunch was not without a price, the pricing power of the paper produced by each family, and the quality standards were determined by him, which can be discussed but must respect him, the original, otherwise there will be no negotiation of buying and selling in the future.
The princes knew the ability of the Pingyang Marquis's mansion, and since they entered Beijing for half a year, they have successively made ironware, horse-drawn carriages, and new paper, and they may have come up with new things at some point.
A few days later, Zhang Wu Hou Dou Wan sat stupidly in the Hou Mansion and was stunned, the papermaking workshops in the capital sprung up like mushrooms after a rain, as if the spring breeze blew overnight and thousands of trees and flowers bloomed, and the house slaves of the Hou Mansion went to inquire in person, and the raw materials purchased were the same as the paper workshops in their house.
Originally, he didn't believe it, but within a few days, the new paper produced by other families had been hung out to dry, and the degree of papermaking was the same as that of his own papermaking workshop, which scared him a lot, and he hurriedly surrounded Jingshi to spare a circle of current papermaking workshops are the same process, and the worst straw paper in the paper made, the best mulberry paper is exactly the same, and at this time the fool also knows that he has been pitted.
Zhang Wuhou Dou was angry, and asked himself if he had no grudge against the Pingyang Hou Mansion, and the land transaction was also a transaction that you and I were willing to fight and the other party was willing to suffer, how could it evolve to the point where I was being cheated and profited by others!
Without saying a word, he went to the Inner History Mansion to sue the Marquis of Pingyang for illegal affairs, but the right Inner History spread out the file and took a closer look, and immediately shook his head and told him that the Inner History Mansion would not accept his complaint, and it was better for him to take back the complaint as soon as possible.
Now Dou is in a hurry, why can't he sue Pingyang Hou, he shouted that Right Neishi accepted a bribe from Pingyang Hou, and the scolding was not very good, which immediately made Right Neishi also annoyed, changed his pleasant expression, put down his face and brushed his sleeves away.
Suddenly there was a trouble, which made Dou Wan dumbfounded, and roared at the court to insult Shangqing, and the right Neishi had the heart to deal with him, as long as he reported the matter, even if the Empress Dowager Dou came forward to protect him, he would be the first to take off a layer of skin in Tingwei Prison.
"Zhang Wuhou is polite, I advise you to take back the paper as soon as possible."
Dou Wan glanced at him and recognized him, Zhang Tang, a subordinate official of the Inner History Mansion, he had never been able to close the case in the case he handled, he was sleek and sophisticated, and he was rich in means, almost comparable to the subordinate officials of the court who were old in the criminal name.
In the Spring and Autumn Period, such rude people were enough to kill, and even more brutal such as Song Xianggong stewed the late Yan Zi into a pot of soup for the sacrifice of the Suishui gods in the alliance.
Zhang Tang smiled, completely disagreeing: "I think that the prince can't win the Pingyang marquis, the Danshu iron deed is clearly written, and there is no restriction that the Pingyang marquis is not allowed to spread papermaking, the prince or go back as soon as possible, so as not to make trouble in the court and lose face." ”
——
ps: Some book friends complained that Zhao Shi would harm the Han family, and kill tens of thousands of Han people with a random strategy, which is a bit of a meaning of Zhao Shi as a Xiongnu Shan Yu, in fact, he is a big Bank of China said, it is not as good as the single-mindedness that the Bank of China said, because he went to the Xiongnu with a conspiracy, and sooner or later he will attack the Xiongnu.
