The left and right already owe favors, and the money does not need to be used in vain, and some more interest will be paid back in the future.

Yu Zhizhou caught a glimpse of the silver ticket in the envelope, his narrow eyelids were slightly raised, and his eyes were bright, and it seemed that he was still making money by business.

Yu Jiao put away the silver ticket, and Gu Yun also mentioned in the letter that he had returned to Beijing, and if there was anything to find him in the future, just ask Steward Zhou to arrange for someone to send him a letter in the capital.

And the imperial court appointed the household officials as governors, and they would go to the north for disaster relief in the near future.

This news means that the business of the grain store will not be long in coming.

It can't be said that it will be done for a short time, but as soon as the grain for disaster relief from the imperial court arrives, the business of the grain store will inevitably be affected, and the price of grain will also be affected by it.

Yu Jiao agreed to sign the employment contract for the rations of so many households, and the grain transported from the river could not be sold all, and when the grain transported to Danzhou by Zhou Steward was sold out, there was no need for the grain shop in Danzhou to open again.

September to November is a suitable sowing period, only in May of the following year to harvest, there is nearly half a year of growth, this half year of time to find some side things to do.

Yu Jiao raised her eyes to look at Yu Zhizhou, Yu Zhizhou was immediately sitting on her lap, Yu Jiao chuckled lightly, and asked, "Third brother, how is the flower paper you said earlier selling in the academy?" ”

"The paper is elegant and gorgeous, there are many people in the academy who are vassals and elegant, and there are quite a few people who are willing to buy it, and my daughter's family is estimated to like it more." Yu Zhizhou replied.

Yu Jiao thought for a while, and then said, "Third brother, have you ever heard of Xue Taojian?" ”

Yu Zhizhou shook his head blankly, "Forgive me for being lonely and unheard, but I have never heard of it, is it also a notepaper?" It sounds like a person's name. ”

In history, Xue Tao's note is very famous, one is famous because of Xue Tao's poems, and the other is because the size of ordinary rice paper is too large, and Xue Tao's note is exquisite and small, colorful, easy to carry, and it is suitable for writing eight-sentence poems.

Throughout the ages, it was women who made better money.

It is a good business to open a paper mill that specializes in producing high-quality and exquisite paper and selling it to the boudoir ladies of those large families.

Writing paper can be used not only to compose poems, but also to write letters.

But for a moment, Yu Jiao had already made up her mind in her heart, and when Hu Cai was planted, she devoted herself to studying paper, she not only wanted to make flower notes, but also imitate Xue Tao's notes, color notes, and incense notes.

Boudoir women like to use incense the most, and if you can make a note paper with spices and a long-lasting fragrance, it will be very popular.

"Third brother, I want to open a paper mill." Yu Jiao said slowly, "Would you like to do it together?" ”

Yu Zhizhou was stunned, "I'm ...... Can I? Didn't you say you were going to open an oil mill, why did you suddenly have to make paper again? Xuanzhou government paper is very good, the rice paper we use is produced in Xuanzhou, rash paper, I am afraid it is not easy to sell......"

Xuan paper is tribute paper, famous in the world, skillful, all the world's scholars use rice paper, in addition to the rough jute paper, because of the low price, occasionally someone will use it.

What's more, there is no ancestral papermaking technique, how can rice paper be replaced? Although Yu Zhizhou also wants to do a big job, it is too whimsical to open a paper mill rashly, and I am afraid that he will lose all his money.

Seeing that he misunderstood, Yu Jiao explained, "I don't want to compete with rice paper, we only make paper, sell it to the boudoir women, the girls of the big families are quite talented, if they can make the paper that meets their hearts, they will not worry about the market, our paper mill is not to welcome customers from all over the world, and the positioning is the boudoir women of those big families." ”

With a clear target customer group, Yu Jiao is not worried about the sales of paper paper, she continues, "Even if we don't need to make paper, we can buy rice paper and process it into flower paper." ”

Yu Zhizhou was suddenly enlightened by her, "It's my narrow-mindedness, when you say this, I think it's feasible, but how to make flower paper, none of us know the skills." ”

"This doesn't matter, I know some doorways, the flower paper is carved with engraving landscape flowers, the five-color paper needs to be colored on the paper, the incense note needs to add a variety of spices when making paper, and the incense paper making art will be troublesome."

Listening to Yu Jiao's eloquent talk, Yu Zhizhou couldn't help but admire, "Sister Yu Jiao knows so much, I, a scholar, am really ashamed." ”

Yu Jiao smiled faintly, "The third brother reads all the subsets of scriptures and history, and most of the books I read are idle books." She took a sip of tea and continued, "There is nothing difficult in the world, but I am afraid of people with hearts, I believe that as long as we study hard, we will be able to make paper." ”

Yu Zhizhou had already been persuaded by her, Yu Jiao only sat quietly, and her slow and logical narration gave him a feeling of pointing out the country.

The things that were originally unwritten made him feel like he wanted to do it immediately.

He stood up and said convincingly, "What Sister Yu Jiao said is that I will do whatever you say in the future." ”

Yu Jiao smiled, "The matter of the paper mill was originally mentioned by the third brother, so I had this idea, and this matter really has to be troubled by the third brother." ”

Yu Zhizhou sat down on the chair and said with a full face of energy, "Sister Yu Jiao just commands." ”

"Although we can directly buy rice paper paper, but the skills of papermaking can still be learned, and how about the flower paper in Jiangnan? There are other notes in the next place, which need to be found out for yourself. "To put it simply, you have to do a market survey, analyze the competitors, and learn from other people's skills.

Yu Zhizhou nodded again and again when he heard this.

Yu Jiao continued, "I need to keep an eye on Hu Cai sowing seeds, and I can't pull away, so I have to bother the third brother to do these things." ”

Yu Zhizhou said, "My sister means that you want me to go to Jiangnan and Xuanzhou?" ”
