It's hard to be a man. It's harder to be a good person. It's even more difficult to be a good person if you want to appear in front of the world with a good face.

"Who says I'm not a good person?" I have a different opinion on this point, that is, someone ran to the West Market and shouted, 'Wang Xiu is a hypocrite who is strong outside and inside', which will definitely attract a lot of abuse, and now in the eyes of outsiders, in addition to being an out-and-out loser, my character is first-class, there is no doubt about it. "Go out and say bad things about me, your status is high, no one dares to confront you in person, but I definitely don't agree with you in my heart, maybe I doubt your character in private."

"Hehe," Lanling was dressed in a newly dyed pale cotton pleated skirt, with a moon-white skein and gold line belt, and her figure was straight and abrupt. "That's why I'm not a good person. It's a bit of a bad problem, and the words that pick and choose people after tea and dinner are vivid. Only then did the steamed brewing recipe be dedicated to the Ministry of Industry, and now under the guise of selflessness for the people, through the minds of the Ministry of Industry, you are the cotton weaving control, and no one says that you are rich and unkind, what are you afraid of? ”

"It doesn't matter, I'm afraid that people will think so." Uncle Cao was urged by several bigwigs on the front line, and he devoted himself to the research and development of firearms, and I failed to find out what was going on after three visits, and it seems that the Ministry of Industry did not have the heart to jointly engage in the cotton spinning industry with the Wang family this time, "This look at the cotton will come down, and the 100,000 catties of things will be piled up towards the Wang family, and I really can't afford to eat it all in one go." You have also seen the workshop, 1,800 people may not be able to go into battle, where can I find so many idle female workers? It's not a casual job, it's a year...... "There are very few working women in this era, and the family is a big laborer, and there is no concept of going out to earn money for a long time.

Lanling pointed at himself with a smile, "At the beginning, you will be invincible, and it will be promoted in the future, it is impossible to pull it all towards your home, and it is imperative to establish cotton weaving workshops in cotton producing areas around the country." The Ministry of Works doesn't care about you. But you ignore me, and when it piles up in the future, I'm afraid it's not a matter of just making a quilt, right? ”

"You still need to look for me? As long as the Ministry of Industry approves it, how many workshops do you like to build, and where do you want to build it, it's not all up to you, why do you have to pull me to do it? ”

Lan Ling leaned forward and smiled, "Your ability." You can't see it from you, but you can see it from the people before you. There are a few members of your Wang family, none of them are good characters, the eldest lady doesn't need to say, those two daughters, quietly can maintain your family's property to the point that even your sister-in-law can hardly deal with it...... And your sister-in-law, smart is a little bit. Without the intentional or unintentional knocking next to you, she would only be a shrewd merchant, and she would not have such eccentric skills. ”

"Oh? Am I so great? ”

"But I'm underestimating myself, hum." Lan Ling wrenched the silver bracelet on his wrist and showed me his exquisite craftsmanship. "I won't talk about it, you made a mess, and even the Zhuangzi next to you can't escape."

"Go, I'm not a miasma. Let you say that it is a pit. ”

"No, that girl surnamed Yun is an example, she learned from your family and was forced by your family; I see, don't talk about Chang'an, just the Tang Dynasty is just this eccentric female leader. You bring bad to the people around you, and you pass it on to others like a plague, hehe... You don't deal much with the outside. Many things in the court are different from before, and everyone can feel it, but they can't figure out the reason. ”

"Oh, I see." took the cricket jar from Cheng Chu's robbery and reclined on the soft chair to admire.

"It's good to understand. There is no other meaning, let the inner house always have a relationship with you, and pull you in just to promote your nameless skills. It stands to reason that the advantage of the inner house is that others can't compare, but I always feel that the business is not as smooth as your family, although there is a lot of money to make. It's a disadvantage Reiki. I'm afraid that I will repeat the mistakes of the paper workshop in the future. Lan Ling pointed to a large pile of brochures on the table, "I won't tell you." For most of this year, the inner government has made a profit of 400,000 yuan, and in the future, this stall will become bigger and bigger, and there will be more and more people, so you will play the role of a professor. ”

"No, hehe." After smelling the jar, the tea was not soaked thoroughly, and it had to be buried for half a year before it could be used. "You walk the road yourself, eat a trench and grow wise, it is impossible to have smooth sailing, even if you ask me to pass, you can't avoid it. Think of me as a god? Anything. As far as business is concerned, none of us are going back to business. In the future, you can come to me to discuss, I will do my best to plan for you, talk about the army on paper, and you have to fight for a famous general like you. "I know in my heart after eating a few bowls of dry rice, not to mention the deformed trust of the inner house, according to my ability, without the help of these people around me, I can lose money selling maltose at the door, and I am not born to do business.

I've been getting very serious lately, borrowing the wind of serial publications, and there is a trend of looking at money as an orthodox scholar of dung, no way, who calls us the second-in-command in agronomy, especially in the cotton harvest season, I have to control my own image.

"Contribute to the country, never care about personal gains and losses, for example, this cotton, the Wang family hopes to let the court come down to preside, so they have repeatedly urged the Ministry of Industry, hey! So far, there has been no news, and I will definitely visit Cao Shangshu again tomorrow. "In the face of friends from all walks of life who have the idea of playing cotton, without waiting for the other party to speak, first make clear their selfless position. Don't you want to work with the Wang family? The Wang family has already greeted the Ministry of Industry, if you feel that you can be above the court, then it doesn't hurt to open your mouth, if you don't have this confidence...... Of course, unlike the Cui family, Cui Zhang is a partner, although he is temporarily disfigured, but we can't discriminate against people with disabilities.

"Good to cover your face, the world's brother is going to go out at night to do a vote?" Cui Chang knew that he couldn't delay, so he sent someone to invite me and meet me with a mask.

"Hugh has to make fun of it." Cui Zhang pulled the ramen towel unhappily, and reached in and touched a few handfuls.

"Hey, hey, haha......" I stepped forward and bent down to look inside, "Our brother is still covering up, it's over." ”

"It's been fine for the past two days, and the tips of my eyes are still a little clear, so Brother Zihao won't make fun of it anymore. I invite you to come today to discuss business, and it seems that it is the season......" Cui Chang quickly removed the topic of injury and went straight to the topic. "Last year's cotton was sold out in just a few days, and this year I am afraid that I can order it without even going out, and the price is ......."

"It's still early, there is a processing process in the middle, and you can't sell it if you pull it back." As he spoke, he took a roll of cotton cloth and came out, "Half of this year will be woven into cloth, and the investment in manpower is huge, and the price is high." Hey..."

"My own brother, what else are you doing?" Cui Zhang stuffed the cotton cloth back and waved his hand magnificently, "This little brother has seen it a long time ago, when he was not injured in front of his head, Princess Lanling wore this material for the banquet, and he specially asked what it was, and I heard that he also specially presented a cotton robe to the host of Ci'en Temple." It has long been famous in the capital. ”

"You're welcome," he said, stretching out his hand to make a five-headed wine order.

"Silk?" Cui Chang nodded and said with a smile: "It's easy to say!" ”

“NO!” Gao Shen shook his head, "Quilt, of course, this is not easy to convert, hehe...... We can weigh it. ”

"This ......" Cui Zhang pondered for a moment, "A quilt is four catties." If it is five, four catties of cotton cloth will be twenty-five? Brother Zihao, this ......"

"Brother of the world, I am too worried, Princess Lanling's cotton pleated skirt, I'm afraid that she won't even be able to get a pound? If the same style is taken out and sold for thirty pieces. As far as you and I are concerned, are you willing to buy a few sets for your mother-in-law? "I deliberately confuse the concept between raw materials and finished products, and in this era, everyone is more straightforward in settling accounts, and they are under huge profits. The cost of reprocessing can be ignored.

"It's a great idea!" Cui Zhang suddenly slapped his head and laughed, because of the hood, it made people feel ghostly. "Why don't you send the fabric directly to the tailor shop, the signboard is played out, and it is tailor-made, and the ladies all over the city do not flock to it?"

Depend on! Shameless to die. He also opened a fashion store and directly plagiarized my ideas. I'll just talk about the topic, and this guy can get a source of money, "Oh, yesterday I met a steward in the paper workshop and said that he had this plan, and it was really the same as the hero." "That's the end of the matter, what do he like. Ming will also give Lanling a breath. The Cui family and the inner house are in the ring, and I happen to be a fisherman.

"It doesn't matter. On the inner house, old friends. It's good to have a peer. Cui Zhangman didn't care and said: "It's not necessarily right if the peers are enemies, especially in the inner house, what kind of business does it have, the Cui family has the bottom of the gourd in the same way, even if the profit is high, it will not be criticized, accusing the Cui family is not equivalent to accusing the inner government of competing with the people for profit?" ”

Cui Zhang's words are so right, teacher! Usually it is not serious to eat, drink, prostitute and gamble among friends, but when it comes to business, Cui Zhang is a master, this word gave me a big awakening, no wonder the Cui family has stood tall for a hundred years, and the truth is pointed out with understatement, and the light is admired.

Although the inner government has the power of the royal family, it is afraid of a bad reputation, no matter how big the business is, it does not dare to reach out in the country, Lanling likes this idea, and plans to build some fashion stores abroad. "Cotton cloth is in short supply, and it's cheap for the world's handsome boy. However, the use of silk abroad is more profitable, and my court clothing is very popular in the surrounding aristocratic circles. ”

"I have a plan," he said, pulling out a large booklet from the bookshelf, and said solemnly, "I will formally discuss with you... Don't laugh, it's a serious matter! ”

"Say, don't let you laugh, you don't look like Liu Renliang with a straight face." Lan Ling stretched out his hand to grab the booklet, but I withdrew my hand and dodged it. smiled: "What good things are, they are not taken down and not let people see them!" ”

"Let's talk, it's yours after the negotiation," I shook the album, "It stands to reason that we are emotionally inseparable from each other, and you want to give it to you now." But this will be on behalf of the Inner House, and I will represent the Wang family, the two camps, let me go first. ”

"Hongmen Banquet?" Lan Ling moved his chair and distanced himself from me, "What do you have to teach the little master?" ”

"The princess is polite, I don't dare to teach, little advice." Arching his hand, he took out the terms negotiated with the two helpers in the family and looked at it, and followed his thoughts, "Increase the area of cotton trial planting this year, if nothing else, the yield of 30 catties per mu will be counted...... According to the market price, of course, there are few things now, and the price is still unstable, so according to last year's price, excluding a series of costs such as acquisition, transportation, and processing, there will be a profit of about 150,000 yuan, which may be more. ”

"So your family earned seven or eight thousand last year?" Lanling's mathematical attainments are perfect, and he reported the profits of the Wang family in one bite. "Damn, the court is supported by food and money, and it is all in your money box."

"Stop! Who is talking to you about this? I mean, since the Ministry of Industry is not interested in cooperating with me, then I will transfer all the technology to the Inner Government for a fee, not ......"

"Paid? Is your family's reward for removing cottonseeds or that I sold the land in the name of the Ministry of Industry, and you plan to sell me the technology I paid for? Lan Ling looked disdainful, and his feet were tall, "I can settle accounts, and I have never had a good idea from the beginning." ”

"Listen to me. It's rude to interject indiscriminately. On this year, cotton 21 added 5, the inner government built a workshop, the Wang family also built a workshop, each sold its own, competing with each other, even if the inner government bullied people, I admit it. To technology gives you technology. Even if the workshop is built exactly the same, even the management model can be copied. Chao Lanling sent a kind smile, "The faster the cotton is promoted in the future, the more workshops we have in various places, the industry is a rival, and the industry is a friend, if a third party wants to take a piece of the pie, we will go to the outside." ”

"Oh." Lanling suddenly realized, "Then you are miserable, what if the inner mansion wants to sit on the big family?" Aren't you afraid to give your Wang family's cotton industry to eat? ”

"You eat when it's time to eat, you're welcome." Scare me, hehe. Once it spreads. Ten years is a schedule, when the cotton cotton craft is popularized among the people, the price will definitely fall sharply, and it is a matter of time before it is lower than the silk fabric. What kind of profit is there to talk about. It's good if you don't lose, eat, be careful of eating bad stomach. "Competition, it is inevitable to annex each other, the Wang family is not strong, and it will be natural for you to eat, and it will not affect the relationship between the two of us."

"Empty City Plan!" Lanling couldn't figure out what I was thinking, and looked at me back and forth several times. "What tricks are you playing? Think clearly, once the inner government reaches out to the cotton, it will be able to control the whole country in ten years, and when the time comes, according to your temper, will I still have the face to come up to your door? ”

"No one else can do it, only you. You are my mother-in-law, others don't know, but I am willing to let you annex the property in my heart. Hey. You don't necessarily have the ability yet, do you? ”

"Have you discussed it with your family?" Lanling came over and touched my forehead, "There is love between the two of us." But once the business rolls up, it can't be controlled by romance at that time. Your Wang family can't stop the inner government, let alone the Wang family, according to the current situation, there will be another ten years, I'm afraid it will not be thinner than the national treasury. ”

"That's amazing, what are you going to do? Spend money and I can help. "The treasury, the treasury still has a revenue and expenditure, according to the current trend of the inner government, it is simply only in and out, and the people are itchy.

"It's not your turn," Lan Ling smiled happily, "Agronomy and this kind of thing, in the name of the royal family, will be built in the future, and more talents will be cultivated." Natural disasters**, it's good to have a preparation, and there is a lot of time to use money. ”

"Royal Academy, Royal Army, Royal Navy? Hehe, your Li family is fighting the country once, and buying the country again......"

"Go, there is no measure."

"Okay, if you figure it out, you can take this booklet away, the loom and the seed machine are all available, and my family has worked hard to improve them. In the future, the competition between the two can promote the improvement and innovation of the process, which can be regarded as a contribution to the cotton spinning industry. Don't be comfortable with the status quo, you have to invest in technology, low cost is competitive, and you won't have face if you can't eat the Wang family when the time comes. ”

"That's what you mean by catfish?" Lan Ling took the booklet with a smile, "I never believed that you had the idea of contributing to the country, I always felt that you were calculating the inner government." But I can't think of the reason, so I should accept your feelings. Squeezed his eyes at me, "Actually, there's no need to drag the inner house into the water, it's a separate business, there are many ways to solve it, and you chose the most inappropriate one." Hehe, haha......"

"Hey, I still can't guess, obviously laughing at me." Lanling was cunning and big, putting on a passive posture from front to back, as if I forced her to open a workshop. "Conditionally. Within ten years, the two companies must reach an agreement on the price of various cotton fabrics, and they cannot privately lower the selling price to hit each other, which will harm others and themselves, and hurt each other. ”

"Well," Lan Ling nodded, "write it down as an agreement." This year's benefits are for the Wang family, and I will send someone to your workshop......"

"No," waved his hand majestically, "from now on, we will be inseparable in the cotton industry." You don't have to make any preparations, just like me last year, you have to spend time training a large number of skilled female workers, you have a lot of Zhuangzi, it is not difficult to vacate one. I can pick a few experienced past people from home to help you, except for Dalai. ”

Dalai can't give it, and if you give it, you can't come back. After a year of tempering, Dalai's professional quality has made a leap, and now the workshop is relying on her to support, more than 100 spinning machines are in place, and she is leading a group of raw hands to practice with cotton and spindles left over from last year.

According to Dalai's meaning, the steps of spinning thread in the workshop can be temporarily exempted, so that the farmers can spin the cotton according to the catty, pay it regularly, and pay it according to the catty, reduce the burden of the workshop, save limited human resources, and can concentrate on weaving fabrics to effectively improve work efficiency.

"Are you sure?" I stared at Dalai in the eyes, and the spirit of the king was fully revealed.

Dallee didn't know what he had done wrong, and he was so frightened by my stare that he forgot to even bow his head and avoid it, and his face turned red.

"Speak!" The momentum increased by a few points in vain.

Dallai shook his head in a panic.

stepped forward and said, "I'm not sure what you're talking about?" Pick a quarrel! ”

Dalai gritted his teeth, nodded again, and said in a trembling voice: "OK ......"

"Okay," I said with a softened complexion, and my tone was soft, like a spring breeze caressing my face. "Be brave next time, yes, don't let people make people look like they don't have any opinions. You are now a citizen of the Tang Dynasty, and you must remember your identity, not like when you were a slave. This year is the beginning of the family, in the next few years the weaving workshop will expand tenfold in your hands, dozens of times, the inner house is still deliberately trying to eat our family, it's up to you. He patted her on the shoulder, "Go to Madame in the afternoon, she bought you a few maids, and the carriage specially ordered for you will arrive tomorrow, and you will find the housekeeper to plan your own decoration." In the future, you will be like the housekeeper, the bookkeeper, and the doctor, and you will eat the benefits of our Wang family for a lifetime; Oh, by the way, take the two of them to Dr. Zhou's to choose a horse, pick your favorite and just pull. Remember, when you go out, you can call the two nursing homes to keep up, and when you go out in the future, you will be a decent person, and you can't be less entourage, and you can't lose face when you act and speak on behalf of the Wang family. ”

"Yes!" Dallai nodded vigorously, and his panic subsided, but his face was still red, and he didn't know what to think.
