Chapter 147: Patents
Yun Duoduo didn't think about patents anyway, and there was no patent protection at this time, and no one in Jiangzhou City has done this business until now, just because it is not easy to do business in this era, not all kinds of harassment by the government of decent people, and too many taxes are collected, even if it is a small business, ordinary people can't afford it.
And those big shops with backgrounds don't look down on this kind of unprofitable business at all.
She didn't say much, and left Cui Pingsheng. Anyway, it's hard to promote this thing, if it's really promoted all over the world, there are too many things needed, and Yun Duoduo won't care.
She went out with Yue Chang'an to collect dried sweet potato fries and brought Sun Yan with her.
This time, I went to three more villages and bought 3,000 catties, and let them slowly send them to the shops in the city.
Sun Yan was a little puzzled: "Sir, why don't you just buy it in one village and go to so many places for what?" ”
Yue Changan explained to her: "Because we have to leave some for them to live on, if we buy too much at a high price, in case the villagers are greedy for a while and sell more to us, what kind of accident can we have?" ”
This kind of thing can happen very easily, after all, many people do not have a strong ability to control the danger, especially in this era, many farmers have not read for generations, have no knowledge and no ability to distinguish.
Sun Yan said: "He wants to sell it himself, what are we doing?" ”
Yun Duoduo said: "I don't kill Beren, Boren died because of me, don't you have a sin, you know that doing this will cause pain to others, you can get rid of your responsibility because of someone else's ignorance?" I have heard that in some places, it is also a sin not to save oneself when one dies. ”
Sun Yan looked at her blankly: "Sir, but if that's the case, we will have to run a few more villages, which will be time-consuming and laborious......"
Yun Duoduo said: "You are a scholar, and a scholar should understand that you must not act recklessly, otherwise, what is the difference between you and robbers and profiteers." If everyone is like this, or even worse, and the peasants of the entire Jiangzhou are starving to death, what good can you do? ”
Sun Yan seemed to understand and nodded.
Here they talked about 3,000 catties of materials and bought 2,000 catties of flour from the rice merchants. Shopkeeper Zhu has also negotiated here, and has booked things for many businessmen who have come from the river.
"The deposit collected in the past few days is five hundred taels." Shopkeeper Zhu reported to Yun Duoduo in surprise, "Owner, our business has made a lot of money, even the shops in the capital have not made so much money." ”
Yun Duoduo smiled and didn't say anything. She is a new thing, at first it can be so fast, and after a year or two, the thing is promoted, everyone sees business opportunities, I am afraid that many rice and noodle shops will come to compete with her for business.
Because there was more business, Yun Duoduo allocated the pots in Sister Zhang and Sister Tan's house to use them, gave them some more money, and asked the shopkeeper Zhu to invite a woman nearby to help, leading the little girls from Liangjia Village together.
The little girls work during the day, eat together at Cui's house at night, have a place to live, and have a quilt cover, such a good day, they never dared to think of it before, and they work very hard.
Granny Cui has nothing to do every day, so she cleans up and cooks at home.
After the beginning of spring, her old man's health was very good, and then so many children came to the house, her mood was much better, and when she was in a good mood, everyone looked younger, helping to cook and laundry.
Originally, Cui Wan did all the cooking, but Cui's mother-in-law preferred to do it herself, so Yun Duoduo let her and let Cui Wan follow her.
Although Granny Cui is not very old, her health has not been particularly good for many years.
In her early years, she raised her children alone, and she didn't feel anything when she was doing housework, but now the life of the family has suddenly become better, and the population has increased so much, even if the family has become a primary school, Yun Duoduo has also opened a shop......
Seeing that the family has more and more money, she inevitably feels old......
Although she is not particularly old, she has a feeling that she is no longer useful, she used to be the pillar of the family, and now she has become a rich idler, which is not particularly pleasant.
Yun Duoduo understands her very well, so the daily cooking for a large family is done by Granny Cui, and Cui Wan is responsible for helping and taking care of her.
Early in the morning, it suddenly became lively outside.
Everyone chatted and chatted, Yun Duoduo listened to the voice, the family was still having breakfast, and asked Cui Wan casually.
Cui Wan ran out to take a look.
After a while, Cui Wan came back: "Girl, everyone is rushing to the river, saying that the first batch of flower boats has arrived." ”
The merchant ships have come in advance, and the flower ships have been waiting for these days, and they have finally arrived.
At this time, the whole Jiangzhou City was lively, and everyone excitedly went to the riverside to take a look, and by the way, it became a big bazaar. In the past two years, the flower letters in Jiangzhou City have become more and more lively, people from ten miles and eight towns will come to buy and sell things, and more and more merchant ships have docked here.
"How much embroidery do we have at home?" Granny Cui asked Yun Duoduo.
Yun Duoduo: "Huh...... There aren't many left. ”
Originally, their own embroidery at home would be regularly sold in the embroidery shop, and some would stay at home and wait for the flower letter to be sold to the flower lady, which is a fast family, or a family that is not short of money.
Yun Duoduo and Granny Cui are both fast in repairing things, and the quality is good, in previous years, they had to sell some to the show every year to maintain their families, and then they would leave some and wait until the flower letter was sold to the flower lady, so that the price would be a little higher.
Although the family is not short of money this year, they basically stayed and did not sell it to embroidery shops, but Yun Duoduo has been busy since last year, and he has not done needlework at all!
Granny Cui said: "Then I will take advantage of this day of Huaxin, hurry up and do more needlework, this day is more expensive, hey, I was injured a few days ago and delayed." ”
Yun Duoduo hurriedly said: "Mother cooks every day, it's hard enough, and our family's money is enough to spend." ”
Granny Cui said: "Silly child, where is the reason for money to be spent, you must be diligent and thrifty......"
Cui Pingsheng said with a smile: "Mother has to cook again, and she has to do needlework, and she can teach and open a shop, but it seems that the child has achieved nothing." ”
Granny Cui said: "You are so good that you read your books, do your things, let you do needlework, what if you prick your hand?" How's going on in Beijing? ”
Cui Pingsheng nodded: "Originally, I was preparing to enter Beijing in the spring of next year, but now the situation in Beijing has changed, and the eldest brother of the sixth uncle's family let us leave this winter." ”
Granny Cui sighed: "Then the family has to save money." ”
Cui Pingsheng said: "The child has already talked to the owner of the bookstore, and he can get some money for copying books from their shop." He said and laughed again, "Although I don't make much money, I still have money." ”
After eating, the students who came over were obviously absent-minded, and when the letter arrived, where were they still in the mood to read and write!
She thought of Granny Cui's words, so she simply gave the students a vacation and asked them to go back to needlework in two months!
This is the most rewarding time to do needlework!
And she herself also gave the things in the shop to the shopkeeper Zhu, the shopkeeper Zhu is an experienced shopkeeper, and the person is very honest, with him, the business is getting better and better, and Yun Duoduo didn't worry about it much. She has been working overtime with Granny Cui to do needlework these days.
What she didn't expect was that Cui Wan's needlework was also very good, and her needlework was another method, and the embroidered things were different from theirs.
At the beginning, Cui Wan was a clumsy scholar Cui Granny's acupuncture, and since she had been sold into slavery, it was naturally difficult for her to take out her ancestors' things and eat them. But then she saw that Granny Cui actually asked Yun Duoduo to pass on the acupuncture improvements she brought from her mother's house, and her mother's house didn't make any sense.
So many students knew how to use this needle, and they didn't see the Cui family starve to death because of it.
She didn't hide it anymore, so she took out all her stitches and worked together.
Granny Cui stared at her craftsmanship, looked at Yun Duoduo again, and said with a smile: "Duoduo is better than Cui Wan, but this needlework is not as good as Cui Wan." ”
Cui Wan lowered her head shyly and didn't speak.
Yun Duoduo said: "My hand can't keep up with the movement of my head." ”
The three of them talked and laughed about needlework, and Sun Yan still came over every day, but the school was closed, Yun Duoduo was busy making money, and he didn't have time to teach her, so he let her write and read there by herself.
Sun Yan has a good brain, learns things very quickly, memorizes things very quickly, and has a feeling of not enough to eat. But she still likes to come to Cui's house every day, and when she arrives at Cui's house, she can always learn something that can't be learned elsewhere.
Every morning, Yun Duoduo would take Sun Yan to the riverside and sell these needlework works to the merchants wandering along the riverside.
Because it is a free transaction, everyone's price is not fixed, try your luck, you have to estimate the price yourself, sometimes the first bidder who rushed over early did not sell, and it was not good to go around again and not meet a higher price.
Yun Duoduo once met Xiao Cui, Xiao Cui complained: "The price of this thing is getting more and more elusive, I sold it again this morning, Linlin is a little later than me, and she sells Yingluo for ten cents more than me." ”
Yun Duoduo laughed: "I'll teach you, what about you, just find those Persians with blue eyes to sell, they tend to bid higher, don't worry, those people must buy more every day." ”
Xiao Cui didn't particularly understand: "I've met them, and they don't buy expensive ones." ”
Yun Duoduo said: "That's because you are in a hurry, as long as you have good things, they will ask for them, and the Persians will take them back to their hometowns, and the same thing can be sold for a lot of money, which is more profitable than the merchants from the north." They are willing to pay the price, but they like to grind the price slowly with others......"
Cui nodded and decided to give it a try tomorrow.
