When Huang Yueying went home and entered the study, Zhou Yangzheng and Huang Chengyan reported the matter.

"The head of the family, the ten pieces of paper he brought were found by the master book, and Cai Junshi gave his two to Mrs. Zhou Mu, and Mrs. Zhou held a flower viewing party...... The state pastor also said that he would ask for credit to the little lady before the Son of Heaven drove! Nowadays, some of the families in Xiangyang are directly following the state pastor. After the villain sent the letter to the Pang family, he rested for a day, and then hurried back. ”

Huang Chengyan nodded, "Thank you for your hard work, but ...... You'll have to work hard in two days. ”

"But at the command of the head of the house." Zhou Yang was happy in his heart, although it was hard to travel, Huang Chengyan asked him to do things, which was to attach importance to him.

After hearing these words, Huang Yueying realized that in two days, there would be more people coming. It's my own cheap uncle...... Cai Mao, who was not evaluated well in later generations, surprised her, and in a few words, she asked her cheap aunt to advertise for her.

These people, all thieves and thieves, can leave a name in the history books, there is really no simple one! After a while, she realized that this was not only Liu Biao's request for her credit, but also Liu Biao's political achievements.

sighed in her heart, in the end, she still has to adapt to this group of people, otherwise...... If you want to suffer a loss, no wonder Liu Biao has transported so much grain, these grains should be a thank you gift, and it is estimated that several other families should have sent more than just money.

"Father, I'm back."

"Achu is here?" Huang Yueying also had a smile on his face, today day, he was very busy, but he was also busy and happy.

"Yes."

"How's the workshop?"

"With Aunt Li and Uncle Song here, they should be very attentive." Huang Yueying smiled, "Uncle Zhou has worked hard. ”

"You're welcome, little lady!" Zhou Yang didn't dare to take it big in front of Huang Chengyan, nor did he dare to take it big in front of the little lady who was smart since he was a child and is now famous all over Jingzhou.

"Alright, alright." Huang Chengyan called his daughter to him, "Achu come here." ”

"Father, what's wrong?"

I saw Huang Chengyan take out a stack of gift lists, "This is what your uncle, uncle, and brother-in-law gave you." ”

Huang Yueying then took it, and the first thing she looked at was Liu Biao's, a good guy, three thousand stone corn, ten pieces of jade, and one hundred pieces of silk...... What a trench!

She likes to be relatives with such a trench!

Then there is Cai Mao's, three shops in Xiangyang, a number of jade, silk, and corn stones.

Then there were the Kuai family and the Pang family, who gave less than Cai Mao's, but the emphasis was on the land in Chuyang, and the two families added up to 1,000 acres.

There are also Chen's, Yang's, and Xi's who also sent some, but not much.

"All for me?" Huang Yueying actually didn't understand.

Huang Chengyan saw the incomprehension on his daughter's face, so he touched his daughter's head, Ah Chu is smart, but he doesn't care about the affairs of men and women, what do these people mean except Liu Biao, isn't he clear?

Their family, Achu, is twelve years old, which is not small, not to mention, Achu's papermaking will soon spread all over the world. It's normal for these families to think about it, but it's a pity...... In the end, he will listen to their family's Achu.

"yes, it's all yours." Huang Chengyan smiled, "It's all for Achu as a dowry." ”

Huang Yueying was helpless, "Father, although my parents are destined to match, I have to make my own decisions about this matter." ”

"Of course, Achu is in charge." Huang Chengyan naturally responded, this girl, he was so hurt that it was too late to get to the tip of his heart, besides...... He and his girlfriend have discussed a lot these days, and there are a lot of things to do in the future.

"That's good." Huang Yueying breathed a sigh of relief, "Since Uncle sent the shop, then when Uncle Zhou rests for two days, I will take someone to spread the Chu paper, but if the people in Xiangyang know that there is Chu paper to buy, they will definitely compete for it, and with the current output of our workshop, it cannot be completely rolled out." ”

"That's right, so there's no good way to be a father." Huang Chengyan is also embarrassed, there are many families in Xiangyang, and there are many backgrounds in the family. Now that the imperial court has long been gone, Liu Biao has not moved the family when he entered Jingzhou, so he ...... Jingzhou's family will only get richer and richer.

"Then there is a limit to purchase, and each person is limited to five pieces of medium-sized Chu paper or one high-grade Chu paper, and five hundred pieces of paper can be sold every day." Huang Yueying directly took the method of hunger marketing, "At that time, I will tell the people who buy paper that because the output of Chu paper has not kept up, it can only be like this." ”

Huang Chengyan and Zhou Yang on the side listened to the eyes lit up, it makes sense! There are many families in Xiangyang City, the families have a big business, and there are many branches, who can't buy some? Then the purchase is limited.

Huang Chengyan sighed, "Our family Achu is really amazing." ”

Zhou Yang also nodded in agreement, "It's a pity ......"

It's a daughter.

But he quickly became agitated and did not say the second half of the sentence.

Huang Yueying was puzzled, "What did Uncle Zhou say?" ”

Zhou Yang shook his head, and then hurriedly said, "It's a pity that the output of Chu paper is slightly insufficient." ”

Huang Yueying nodded, yes, the time is too tight, the original plan was to expand the workshop next year, but in less than half a month, the old father prepared all the money and food, and if the construction started one day earlier, there would be a good family to have a good year.

New industries can also hit the old market earlier.

She's not just going to make paper.

"Now the Chu paper in the workshop, Uncle Zhou can bring it." Huang Yueying thought for a while and spoke, "Uncle sent three shops, the addresses are adjacent, and the other two will not be opened first, and I will have my own plans for the coming year." ”

Papermaking, of course, can not only make paper, printing has to keep up, with the preciousness of knowledge in this era, once the book is sold, the impact it brings, that is subversive.

"And how much does the new paper cost?" Zhou Yang nodded, and then asked a question.

"Medium Chu paper is such a large sheet of five coins, and high-grade Chu paper is ten coins." Huang Yueying thought about it and set the price.

A large piece of Chu paper, four feet long and three feet wide, is about 92cm*69cm in size in later generations.

Zhou Yang was puzzled, "Is it so cheap?" ”

Huang Chengyan smiled, "Paper is not a precious thing, it should be cheap." ”

"Father is right, we want everyone to want to use paper, and we need to use paper."

Huang Yueying explained with a smile that if the price is too high, it is equivalent to only opening it to the family, although the main force in the early stage must be them, but the long-term vision of doing things should be long-term, besides, paper is a consumable after all, cheaper, in the long run.

Of course, the main thing is that the cost of new paper is not high, and when the production capacity of the new workshop comes up, it is completely profitable.

As for her, she didn't expect a workshop to supply the paper of the entire Jingzhou, and when the time came, she would choose a few suitable addresses, and Uncle Song and their group of earliest workers would be enough to manage a workshop, so they could continue to open new workshops. Not to mention, for some processes, she and her old father have long planned to replace them with water, and the cost of each piece of paper will be lower.

"The head of the family and the little lady are righteous." Zhou Yang naturally didn't say anything anymore, he was just a domestic servant.

"Okay, you're working hard, let's go back and rest for two days first."

"No."

Seeing Zhou Yang leaving, Huang Yueying looked at the old father, "Father thinks, when can printing start?" ”

"At least wait for Chu paper production to catch up, right?" Huang Chengyan smiled, "Otherwise, Chu paper won't be enough to sell." However, in the past two days, I have to choose some trustworthy people to join the paper workshop to increase the output. ”

Huang Yueying also nodded, no opinion, but the old father's thinking is actually very suitable for business! Then I thought about it, too, the old father is almost fifty years old after all, plus he has a lot of experience, what has he never seen?

"At that time, based on the Four Books and Five Classics, plus the annotations of the scriptures and meanings of Father, Elder Brother Shang, Shui Jing, and Song Confucian, you will be able to make a start, and then slowly increase it." As for the source of the book, Huang Chengyan is not afraid at all. He was originally from a scholar family, and the Four Books and Five Classics were the foundation, and the important thing was the understanding and commentary of the scriptures by the Confucian scholars of all generations.

Now there is such a bookstore, but this book, after all, is still a lot of bamboo slips, copied with Cai Hou paper, and the quality is worrying, now there is new paper, and the printing technology that Achu said, if he can't bring a trend, he will live in vain for so many years.

"That's what Father said." She naturally agrees with her old father's plan.

You can't be a fat person by eating in one bite, let alone in this era, the transportation is underdeveloped and the information is not smooth, which is a great constraint, but fortunately, her cheap uncle has ensured the peace of Jingzhou for the next ten years, and she has at least ten years to get up and develop.

On December 20, the first snow fell in Jingzhou, and the mountains stretched and covered with a layer of white clothing.

Longzhong.

A young man dressed in white linen, standing under the eaves, sighed, this world, after all, is cannibalism, his parents died early, his uncle also died, and his eldest brother was studying abroad, he is now ten and seven, and it is time to take on the responsibility of supporting the family.

"Brother! Letter from the second sister! In the distance, another boy about eleven or twelve years old ran over in the snow with a bamboo tube in his hand and a longer bamboo tube behind his back.

When the young man heard the sound, he looked at his little brother, waited for the other party to stand still, took the bamboo tube from his hand, opened it, and inside was a letter from his second sister. The second is that now the youngest daughter of Chengyan's family has made Chu paper, which is much better than Caihou paper, and the Pang family has also participated in it, so she took some over; The third is to ask him if he intends to marry a wife, and she looks good.

The young man looked at the bamboo tube behind his little brother, "Open it." ”

"Brother, here is Chu paper!" The little boy smiled, "I've opened it and seen it, it's really white and snowy!" It's like snow on the mountain, it's beautiful and tight, can you ...... Give me a piece? ”

The young man smiled, looked at the Chu paper in the long bamboo tube, poured it out, spread it out, smooth and delicate, flexible and white, the letter of the second sister was also written on Chu paper, the ink was not scattered, and it looked comfortable, "Go back to the house first." ”

"Brother, I heard that this Chu paper was made by the little lady of Chengyan's family, and she is only twelve years old, only one year older than me!" The young man chirped, "I also heard that there are already shops in Xiangyang that sell Chu paper, a medium Chu paper is only five yuan, and a high-grade Chu paper is only ten yuan, that is, each person can only buy five pieces of medium Chu paper or one high-grade Chu paper, and the daily limit is five hundred." ”

When the young man heard this, he was a little surprised, "The price is not expensive, but it can't be fully supplied?" Running out of production? ”

"Yes, yes, that's what people say." The little boy nodded hurriedly, "According to me, if the production is insufficient, we will send more manpower!" Such a profitable business should make more money. ”

"Ah Jun, money is very important, but not more is better." The young man saw his little brother and spoke, "Then you say, is the price of Chu paper too low?" ”

"Yes, since so many people want to buy it, then she will be able to make a lot more money by setting a higher price?" The boy replied without thinking.

The young man sighed and shook his head slightly, the little lady of Chengyan's family can make Chu paper at the age of twelve, and Ah Jun is eleven, but he is still a naughty boy, and it seems that there is still too little schoolwork.

It's the little lady of Chengyan's family, I heard that she is knowledgeable, smart and clever since she was a child, and now she has made Chu paper, and her reputation is better than a day, and I don't know what such a talented woman looks like, if she has the opportunity, she will be able to do it for a while.
