Chapter 66: Hugging the thighs

Although Lin Jin has always felt that she is compared with the "natives", especially those with backgrounds, such as Daiyu, her qualifications are ordinary, even if she is not a woman, she will not be able to pass the imperial examination, but no matter what, she has received a systematic education in modern times; And she came from the era of the information explosion, standing on the shoulders of giants; Moreover, it is difficult to infer the future from the present for many things, but it is easy to look back on the past with the present; Therefore, even if you don't count the library she carries, her knowledge is basically unmatched, except that what she has is very different from the natives; As for the overall situation, there is no one in the whole Daqin who can compare.

These things, for Lin Jin, although they don't seem to help her now, if she takes a career in the future and stands in a high position, it will be of incomparable help to her governance.

A similar analogy: in later life, a company broke a machine for a fetus, and many masters failed to repair it, and finally spent a lot of money to invite a master, and after the master saw the machine, it took a few minutes to draw a line on a certain part of the machine, and then repaired it. Faced with this result, some people feel that this master is too much to be paid. The master said, "It only costs one yuan to draw a line, but if you know where to draw a line, it is the rest of the price." Such a sentence.

And Lin Jin is the one who knows where to draw the line. Therefore, she feels that she is a scumbag, but she really looks down on herself and is a little arrogant.

After saying that there is no need to lose money in the war, but to make money, because of a few more drinks, Lin Jin, who is a little drunk, couldn't help but say again: "Food, clothing, housing and transportation, these four aspects, in fact, no matter what they are, are all businesses that make a lot of money." For example, salt and sugar, how profitable it is, you should be clear. It has always been said that the northwest is poor, but in fact, there is a good deal that if it is made, it can make future generations not worry about not having food. Unfortunately, our shoulders are too small to bear. ”

Wu Jiugong knew that a secret recipe and a craft, if guarded well, could indeed allow the family to have food for generations, and when he heard Lin Jin say that they couldn't do it, he knew that this matter should be the same as the salt drying method, which was a profitable and profitable business.

Thinking of the scale of the Yanzhu Chamber of Commerce now, as well as his own family and Luzon's retreat, he felt that even if it was a rebellion, he could bear it, and it was a big deal, he was not in Daqin, he would just go to Luzon, so he was very unconvinced by Lin Jin's words, and retorted: "You haven't said what kind of profitable business it is, how do you know that we can't do it?" ”

Hearing the box next door talking about a lucrative business like salt and sugar, Emperor Zhengxi's eyes suddenly lit up, and he hurriedly pricked up his ears, listened attentively, and secretly prayed in his heart, hoping that this time the little guy named Lin Jin next door could say something dry like what he said before. If they can't do it, it doesn't mean that he, the emperor of Daqin, can't do it.

Lin Jin pulled the fabric on her body and said with a smile: "Actually, the answer is in front of us, of course, it is the clothes on our bodies." ”

As soon as she said this, whether it was Wu Jiugong or Emperor Zhengxi who was eavesdropping next door, they couldn't help but show disappointment. Wu Jiugong shook his head and said, "Surprise me, I really thought you were talking about some good business." It turns out that you are talking about this, the sheepskin thing, if it is handled, it can indeed make clothes, but unfortunately, this thing is not widely used, and it is not counted in the leather goods; When the nomads were in the Qin and Han dynasties, they used wool to make felt blankets and other crafts, but if they were used to make clothes, they couldn't wear them at all, not only did they taste big, but they also pierced people, and they didn't last long to stick together and become a clump. If this thing is really good, no one has used it to make clothes since the Qin and Han dynasties. ”

Thinking of the wool products that occupied nearly half of the clothing market in later generations, Lin Jin refuted very unceremoniously: "That's because from ancient times to the present, everyone has not mastered how to deal with them, if there is a good way to deal with them, how can you not know that they can't make popular clothes like silk?" ”

Hearing her words, Wu Jiugong suddenly asked with surprise on his face: "It seems that you have mastered a good way to deal with wool?" ”

This thing, there is no need for Lin Jin to go to the library to check the information, she can get started on her own, so she raised her little head very confidently, "Of course." ”

For Wu Jiugong, making money is no longer the main purpose, he enjoys this process, so he thinks of a lot of things that need to be busy to run the wool industry, he only feels full of energy, and is busy saying: "Since this is the case, then what are you waiting for, you will take out the recipe when you go back, I will send someone to Xizhou to collect wool, and then do the business." ”

Although Lin Jin drank too much, so she couldn't hold the door and talked a little more, but it didn't mean that she didn't know what a new lucrative industry represented, although the Chamber of Commerce made friends with many officials, but after all, the power of the official side was borrowed, so after the emergence of this industry, she couldn't bear it, so she shook her head and refused busily: "No, we can't do this." Even if we do it, we are still making wedding dresses for others, which is not worth it and cannot be committed. ”

Wu Jiugong did not give up and tried his best to persuade Lin Jin. And Lin Jin gritted her teeth, but she refused to let go. Just when the two of them, you came and went, and competed with each other, Emperor Zhengxi in the box next door tapped his finger on the table a few times, and looked at King Fujun: "Nineteenth brother, you go next door in a while, show your identity, and then tell them that you give them backing and let them do this." As for the money earned, I don't want much, just according to the current official rules, the minimum should not be less than six or four points. ”

King Fujun hurriedly nodded in agreement, and when he got up to leave, he turned around and asked stupidly: "Sixth brother, are they six and we four?" ”

Emperor Zhengxi didn't speak, but just glanced at King Fujun and gave him a look, so that he could experience it himself.

In fact, just based on Lin Jin's empty words and white teeth, Emperor Zhengxi wanted to intervene in this industry, in addition to the fact that Lin Jin's words about the war before sounded quite reasonable, but also because he was extremely short of money now.

It's just that the whole Daqin, the one who came to the money and the road is there, the income is fixed, and the use is also fixed, and even because of natural disasters in various places, he has to increase a few more expenses, so he is now forced to think about whether to copy the courtier's house, so after listening to Lin Jin's words, he "went to the doctor" as if he had grasped a glimmer of hope.

Looking at the King of Fujun who introduced himself in front of him, Lin Jin and Wu Jiugong looked at each other, and they all hurriedly recalled whether the conversation between the two of them involved the sale of private salt. After thinking about it carefully, the two of them breathed a sigh of relief, and secretly rejoiced in their hearts: Fortunately, fortunately, although they said some offensive words a little bit, they were not too much, and the heads of the two people were saved.

In the face of King Fujun's request, even if Lin Jin and Wu Jiugong were unwilling, their little arms and legs could compete with him, so they could only grit their teeth and agree.

Since she has King Fujun as her backer, when Lin Jin is doing industrial planning, she is not just doing wool business, she wants to do a one-stop industry. That is, to make use of all the things on the sheep, such as wool to make clothes, felt mats and other objects; Mutton fat is used for soap, mutton and edible offal are canned, and so on.

In this way, not only the cost is greatly reduced, but also the profit and the ability to resist market shocks have been greatly improved. In this regard, although it cannot be said that he is not ignorant of business, but he has only read the book of the pipe, and the king of Fujun, who talks on paper, cannot raise any objections at all, so he can only nod his head again and again. When Lin Jin and Wu Jiugong said a word, and I made the entire industrial plan in one word, he who listened to him while opening his eyes, and felt that he was really just a "mascot" placed there as a deterrent.

Speaking of canned mutton, Lin Jin couldn't help but complain: "The brains of those people in the Chamber of Commerce are really stiff. The reason why I proposed to make canned fruit was to supplement the nutrition of the crew, so that they would not get sick after a long time at sea. But it doesn't mean that only fruits can be canned, like vegetables, mushrooms, and all kinds of meat. But for so many years, I didn't mention it, and no one even thought of developing a new variety. ”

Wu Jiugong smiled: "It's not that no one can't think of it. It's just that now it's just canned fruit, and I can't make it, so where is the time to do anything else. In fact, every time I make canned food, I try to make some other kinds of canned food in small quantities, such as the mushrooms you said, and eggs, but the ones that are made are not out of the market, and they are all digested internally. However, the production method has been recorded, and when there are enough manpower and materials in the future, it can be mass-produced. ”

Lin Jin was stunned for a moment when she heard this, thinking that most of the products sold on the market in the future were inferior to the technology mastered in the factory. Is it similar to the fact that after the factory has mastered the new technology, the products made by the original technology will be slowly released?
