[66] Xu Jianyin

"Owner, now our Yuchun business is famous, not only are the umbrellas easy to sell, but even the soap and matches that have been shipped are beginning to sell well.

Our match 3o Wen a box, which is 40% cheaper than the 5O Wen a box of foreign fire on the market! I heard that all the matches of various businesses in Jinan are being squeezed by us and can't be sold!

There is also soap, although it costs two yuan a piece, which is twice as expensive as ordinary pancreas, but as long as the local big people buy it and use it, they all say that the smell is much better than that of pancreas, saying that it is like a real floral fragrance, not pungent at all, and there is no alkaline smell.

The servants who came to buy the soap all said that after the lady of their family used the soap of our Yuchun firm, they were no longer willing to use the cheap pancreas of the other family. They all named and said that in the future, they will only buy the soap of our Yao family Yuchun business! Zhou Sisi was excited, full of hope for the bright future of the Yao family and his future in the firm.

Yao Fan is also very satisfied with the sales situation in front of him, and in less than ten days, the Jinan branch has returned nearly 70,000 taels of silver, which is really exciting.

"Fourth, have you inquired about the price of the store?" Yao Fan whispered.

As soon as Zhou Siyi heard Yao Fan ask about this, he immediately turned his head to look around, and when he saw that no one was eavesdropping, he bowed down and said: "Dongjia, I found a few well-known local people to inquire, this shop is sold in the sky, and it is only this number at most!" Nine hundred and fifty taels must be nonsense! ”、

Zhou Si said as he made a V-shaped gesture.

"I knew it!" Yao Fan snorted coldly.

"Fourth, if you inquire about it, do you know what He Wanyou is busy outside these days? I don't even come to the shop much! Yao Fan said unhappily.

"Owner, I heard Qi Maishun in the store say that the third master of Nahe bought a house in the leather goods alley and raised a new widow. I went there to inquire, and the neighbors said that He Sanye didn't go out much, and hid inside and messed with the woman all day long, the little widow was originally the concubine of Old Man You in the city, and he killed Old Master You half a year after entering the door, and as soon as Old Master You died, the little widow was kicked out of You's house......" Zhou Sili rambled on the gossip he inquired about.

"Alright, don't say it." Yao Fan interrupted.

"Shicheng is now going to Tai'an to send silver, presumably I will be able to complete my registration procedures in the next few days, and when he and Luo Guanqun help me enter the family tree, we will leave when we come back." Only asked Luo Guanqun to stay and look at He Wanyou! Yao Fan made a decision.

"Boss, how much money do you have left in your account?" Zhou Si asked.

"Keep three thousand taels, not too many. You will return to Qingdao for me tomorrow in advance, bring these medicines back and hand them over to the third sister and Li Hainiu, and there is a letter in it, and I will also give it to them. ”

"Yes, boss, I'll leave early tomorrow morning."

Nowadays, on the streets of Jinan Mansion, traces of the heavenly umbrella can be seen everywhere, and the rich people who bought the heavenly umbrella are holding sunny umbrellas of various colors, colorful and winning. Even the city, which is the inner city of Jinan Mansion and is dedicated to the residence of the Eight Banners, is also full of all kinds of umbrella flowers.

"Hey, Pi Ye, you also bought this Heavenly Umbrella."

"No, this sun is too poisonous, I heard that there is a purple light hidden in that daylight, if people grow this purple thread, this skin will be purple and black. Do you know why foreigners are so white? It is because foreigners understand this truth, so they secretly hide a small folding umbrella in their sleeves. ”

"I see...... But, but you are also afraid of tanning? It's not a ......"

"You know the! Lao Tzu Zuzu Zu Zu Grandpa, but I was on an errand in front of the Holy Ancestor Emperor, maybe one day, the royal family will ask me to serve again, and on that day, I will go to the Jinluan Palace, and my face will be whiter, and it will look good, right? ”

"Gotcha! Pi Ye, I think you are counting on raising a little white face so that you can mix up Zhan Wuye's daughter, right? ”

"It's! Get out of the way! I still have business, I don't have time to talk to you here! ”

……………………

In the Sihai Teahouse on East Caiyuan Street in Jinan Prefecture, tea customers are also chatting.

"Uncle Xun, you are so magnificent today, you use foreign fire to light a cigarette! What's the matter, your ancestral fire fold is broken? ”

"That's my ancestral fire fold, blue enamel with gold, that's the ancestral treasure! How can it be broken! I was reluctant to use it, so I left it at home. Nowadays, the foreign fire of the Yuchun business is sold really cheaply, a box of thirty eldest sons, there are more than ten of them, and three of them are counted as a big son. ”

"Alas, yes, in the past, it cost 5o wen for a pack of foreign fire, but now it has fallen by almost half. Seeing that foreigners' gadgets are getting cheaper and cheaper, and we all use foreigners' goods in the Qing Dynasty, who will buy fire folds in the future? ”

"yes, how do you think that foreigner's head is long, how can he make such strange things? Let's just say that the fragrant pancreas of the Yuchun business, my daughter used it once at someone's house, and when she came back, she clamored to buy it, not to say that the thing was fragrant after washing. I couldn't help it, so I had to ask her to buy it, hey, don't say it, after washing my hands, it was really oily again, and it didn't smell good! It's nice to smell it. ”

Yao Fan was called to Ding Baozhen's Shangzhi Academy that day, received some books that Ding Baozhen asked him to translate, and was introduced by Ding Baozhen to a group of conference offices and book translators in the academy. After that, Ding Baozhen asked Xue Fuchen to take Yao Fan to the machine to see Xu Jianyin.

Yao Fan, under the leadership and introduction of Xue Fuchen, the office of the Shandong Machinery Bureau, met Xu Jianyin in the handling department of the Shandong Machinery Bureau, and saw that he was wearing a white cloth gown and single pants, the cuffs and lower edge of the single gown were inlaid with green silk wide edges, although his figure was not high and slightly blessed, but there was wit between his eyebrows and eyes, and he seemed to have a little wisdom root on his body.

After a polite exchange between the two sides, they drank tea and got to the point.

"Yao Dongjia, right now General Manager Xu is worried about the construction of the machine." Xue Fuchen opened the topic.

"Exactly, has the Yao Dongjia seen how the foreigners' gun factories are planned?" Xu Jianyin asked.

Yao Fan felt that this was not only like the two of them were testing themselves, but also like asking themselves questions.

But neither of them has ever been overseas, and they don't even understand how to build factories in Europe now.

Yao Fan looked at Xu Jianyin, this person was the first batch of people in the Qing Dynasty to open their eyes to the world and actually do science, Yao Fan very much hopes to help him, maybe one day, this person can have the opportunity to help the country on the big stage provided by Yao Fan.

Yao Fan decided to shock the two and convince them.

"Nowadays, the large factories of foreigners are equipped with power workshops, steam engines are installed in the power workshop, and the transmission gears installed on the roof of the large factory buildings are used to output the power to the top of each working area in the plant, and then the power is guided down by belts to drive the belt machine tools.

In addition to the small family factories in Europe and the United States, large factories no longer use a single small steam engine to drive a single machine tool, which not only does not save energy, but also makes the factory interior crowded and lacks planning. Yao Fan said.

Xu Jianyin said: "But I heard from foreign priests that many small European and American family factories are suppliers of gun parts. ”

Yao Fan knew that even the famous John Browning started with a manual lathe, and only after founding the Browning Company in 1878 did he buy an upright 5-horsepower coal-fired wood-fired dual-purpose steam engine to drive the lathe. However, Browning's real home was after coming to the Belgian Fn company, relying on the large-scale production workshop of the Fn company, which became famous in the world.

"That's right, but Brother Xu is planning a large factory, and in the future, it will provide firearms to tens of millions of troops in the Qing Dynasty, and there is no large-scale production, how to ensure the quality?" Yao Fandao.

"Then according to Brother Yao's opinion, how should this factory be designed?" Xu Jianyin asked.
