Chapter 107: Inexplicable Repentance!
Guo An looked at the group of interested villagers in front of him, and said helplessly: "Everyone, there are only one hundred and ten households in one mile, but now there are twenty-five households, or even thirty-five households, who want to invite you villagers to come and witness and buy textile machines."
And they are all poor families who have no money to buy and need to weave cotton cloth from the ground to pay.
Have you ever imagined that in addition to these poor households, there are also a number of rich households who directly use their money to buy textile machines in textile shops.
As a result, half of the people in your respective villages have bought looms.
In this way, the textile machine is not as profitable as we say!
I don't know if you have considered these, in this case, do the people in each township have a hot brain before they want to buy?
You must know that a set of textile machines will cost 255 yuan, which is not a small amount even for the villagers! ”
"This ......"
Hearing this, the faces of all the villagers couldn't help but ponder.
More than 250 yuan, which is definitely not a small amount, if it is really as Guo Changshi said, it is not very profitable, so many wooden shelves at home will not become chicken ribs?
Guo An continued: "It is precisely because we are worried that this will happen that we have to let the elders of the township give a witness, and if necessary, we can persuade the people in the township to explain this matter to them."
Can't because of the official's words, all the people blindly think that as long as they buy a textile machine, they can make a lot of money and make a lot of money! ”
"Thank you Guo Changshi for telling this matter clearly!"
"Guo Changshi Gaoyi, if there was no Guo Changshi, Caomin and the others would have almost done a big mistake!"
After thinking clearly, the elders couldn't help but be afraid for a while, and looked at Guo An with a grateful expression.
"However, if there is a lot of land at home, if there are conditions, we also recommend that the people buy a set of textile machines." Guo An's tone changed and he said again.
"Huh?"
The elders of the villagers directly froze in place, a little confused.
"Fellow villagers, the people of Wanping County reclaimed 2,000 hectares of land a few months ago. Next year, you will grow half an acre of cotton in your family! ”
Guo An explained with a chuckle, "With the textile machine, as long as half of the acres of cotton can be harvested, then you will not lose money when you buy a textile machine." ”
"What Guo Changshi said is reasonable!"
The faces of the village elders regained their smiles again, and their cloudy eyes shone with hope.
Those 2,000 hectares of bare, even a stubble of weeds and vegetables, is where the confidence of these ordinary people dares to buy textile machines.
"Okay, these Japanese officials will order the Gongzheng Institute to manufacture textile machines for you as soon as possible, and as for the purchase and sale deeds, they are also fully prepared for you.
You should go back first and explain the situation clearly to the people in each township, so as not to cause any accidents in the future, and the neighbors will complain to each other and affect the feelings between the neighbors. ”
Seeing that these villagers understood what he meant, Guo An began to prepare to send off the guests.
This will, Zhu Di's face has already turned into a briquette, Guo An doesn't want to be scolded by Zhu Di in front of so many villagers.
"Please also rest assured that the grass people and others will definitely explain the benefits and disadvantages to the people in the township!"
"Thank you Guo Changshi for speaking out, and the grass people and others will say goodbye!"
"His Royal Highness King Qi, the grass people retire!"
……
Sending away the village elders with a kind face, Zhu Di couldn't bear it anymore.
"The old people in their hometowns come to the door in person to buy textile machines, why do you want to stop them like this?"
"Your Highness Mingjian, this matter must be stopped by Weichen!"
Guo An said helplessly: "Two hundred and fifty-five dollars may not be as good as a meal for His Highness, and for those ordinary people, they may not be able to save so much money in a year, so Wei Chen naturally has to let them seriously consider it."
And those village elders are also our own people, and Weichen can't just pit them! ”
"Your own people?"
Hearing this, Zhu Di was stunned for a moment, and then waved Guo An's shoulder.
"Just rush to your own people, lose some money, just lose some money!"
"Your Highness, how can you lose?"
Guo An's face changed, and he hurriedly said: "The money earned by the textile machine is still a component of Weichen, and it must not be lost!" ”
Zhu Di said angrily: "You black-hearted thing, you have already driven away all the money sent to the door, what do you want to do if you don't lose money?" Could it be that you still want to be greedy for our money? ”
Guo An understood what Zhu Di meant, glanced at Zhu Di strangely, and said, "Your Highness, rest assured, the people who should buy it will definitely not buy it because of Weichen's words." ”
"Are you saying that there will be so many people who will buy looms?" Zhu Di wondered.
Guo An looked confident: "Your Highness, although rest assured, there is only a lot more!" ”
Zhu Di said: "Why? ”
Guo An looked at Zhu Di speechlessly, "Your Highness, just Wanping County has so many people to buy textile machines, and Daxing County next door will naturally not pull it down."
Moreover, there are five counties and four states around! ”
Zhu Di was overjoyed, "Can the craftsmen of Gongzheng do it?" ”
Guo An said: "Your Highness, if you want to take out so many textile machines at once, it is not enough to work properly!" ”
Zhu Di said: "Then requisition the craftsman!" ”
Guo An said helplessly: "Your Highness, now is the season of cotton picking, and it will be time for the autumn harvest after the cotton is picked, so you can't delay the autumn harvest!" ”
"Into the fuck ......"
Zhu Di looked helpless.
Then, he asked Guo An, "What can you do?" ”
Guo An pondered for a moment, "Your Highness, in fact, the slow sale can catch up." At present, there are still 50 craftsmen in the Gongzheng Institute, and they can make 100 sets of textile machines every day......"
"A hundred?"
Without waiting for Guo An to finish speaking, Zhu Di's eyes widened directly, his face full of surprise.
Guo An nodded slightly, "Exactly, if it weren't for the lack of wood now, there would be more!" ”
Zhu Di asked again: "Are you sure it's a hundred?" ”
Guo An said: "How dare Weichen coax His Highness on this matter!" ”
Zhu Di was still a little unconvinced, "How did they make it so fast?" ”
As he spoke, Zhu Di's expression froze, and he said directly: "Let's go, let's take a look!" ”
Guo An had no choice but to keep up.
And Zhu Fu, Xia Si and others also followed with curiosity.
Fortunately, the workshop courtyard of the textile machine was not very far from the Yanwang Mansion, and soon, Zhu Di and Guo An entered a very lively house.
After entering, Zhu Di was surprised to find that the craftsmen in each room were only making one object repeatedly.
Since they have been making an object, these craftsmen are also very skilled in making it.
Just after looking around, Zhu Di's expression became solemn.
He could see that these craftsmen were making different parts of the looms.
"Guo Qing, are you sure that these carpenters can put up the objects they make?"
"Your Highness, rest assured, the dimensions of these objects are all stuck, and as long as the dimensions made by these craftsmen do not deviate, they can definitely be assembled.
Moreover, the textile machine and the elastic cotton machine are all exactly the same size! ”
Regarding Zhu Di's worries, Guo An is very confident.
"If Your Highness is worried, you can go to the specially assembled backyard to take a look!"
"Let's go!"
Hearing this, Zhu Di was overjoyed.
After Guo An came to the backyard of the workshop, Zhu Di really saw that there were more than a dozen craftsmen in the backyard who were also using a very skillful assembly of various wood parts made by the craftsmen in the front yard.
Moreover, the assembly speed is very fast.
In the blink of an eye, these craftsmen can assemble a cotton machine, or a loom, or a three-spindle spinning wheel.
"The speed at which these craftsmen are making is really amazing."
Zhu Di's eyes lit up with a word of appreciation, and he asked curiously, "Who thinks of this method, we will definitely reward it!" ”
Guo An hurriedly replied: "Your Highness, it is Wei Chen. ”
"What does Guo Qing think?"
Zhu Di's face froze.
"It's Wechen!" Guo An looked at Zhu Di expectantly.
Zhu Di looked around and nodded with great satisfaction.
"Guo Qing is really talented!"
Seeing that Zhu Di wanted to repay the debt, Guo An asked directly: "I don't know how much money His Highness wants to reward Weichen?" ”
The corners of Zhu Di's mouth twitched slightly, "Isn't the money from the sale of these textile machines still up to you, you came up with such a quick way to make textile machines to make money for yourself, isn't it a matter of course, what reward is there?" ”
Guo An wanted to defend himself, but unfortunately Zhu Di also knew Guo An's character well, so he didn't give Guo An a chance to continue to speak.
"We still have military affairs to be busy, so this place will be handed over to Guo Qing!"
After speaking, Zhu Di raised his leg and left.
"Isn't it just a little money, as for it?" Guo An looked depressed.
On the side, the corners of Zhu Fu, Xia Si and the others twitched in their mouths, as soon as you Guo Changshi opened your mouth, how could it be just a little money?
Guo An sighed helplessly, turned around and said to the scribes of the Changshi Division: "Everyone, the sales contract of the textile machine purchased by the people of Wanping County still needs to trouble you!" ”
As for Zhu Fu, he is his superior, and Guo Anke did not dare to appoint it.
"Guo Changshi rest assured, Xiaguan and the others will definitely write out three thousand sales contracts as soon as possible!" A scribe hurriedly replied.
"You don't need to do this, just write a deed of purchase, a deed of sale, and print out 6,000 copies directly!"
Guo Andao.
"Printing?"
The eyes of the scribes lit up, and they all breathed a sigh of relief.
"Thank you Guo Changshi!"
……
The elders of the townships will also go back to the townships, and they will directly gather the heads of the households in their respective villages.
Guo An's words were repeated, but as Guo An expected, except for a few timid families who were not ready to buy textile machines.
Everyone is still insisting on buying a textile machine.
……
In the evening, Guo Ansan had just returned to Guo's mansion.
I saw an unexpected figure, Guo Lin, the old housekeeper of my hometown.
"The old servant has seen the young master!"
"Limber, please get up!"
After helping Guo Lin up, Guo An asked, "Lin Bo came to Beiping Mansion this time, but because of what happened last time?" ”
"Young Master......"
Hearing this, Guo Lin's face directly changed and changed, as if there was something unspeakable.
Guo An smiled casually, "Lin Bo has something to say, but it doesn't hurt to say it, but what accident happened?" ”
Guo Lin sighed angrily, "Young master doesn't have to be too angry, I think the young master is already a fifth-grade official when he is only a weak crown."
The family doesn't know what to do, and it is treacherous, although the young master entered the Yanwang Mansion and became a subordinate of the Yanwang Mansion, but how to say it is also a long history.
Moreover, the young master is still young, as long as he is appreciated by His Majesty, he will still have the opportunity to enter the court as an official, and there will be a ...... they will regret when the time comes."
“……”
Guo An was a little confused!
Is he being remarried?
However, if you think about it carefully, it doesn't count, after all, he has never even seen the face of the other girl, and he doesn't even know the name.
"Young master, young master?"
Seeing Guo An's expressionless face, Guo Lin was even more worried.
"Don't worry, Lin Bo, we're fine!" Guo An chuckled.
"Don't worry, young master, the old man said, our old Guo family still doesn't look down on each other. After a few days, the master will find a more virtuous young lady for the young master from the homes of the officials and eunuchs in the north! ”
Guo Lin comforted.
"So, that one is from the South?" Guo An asked curiously.
"How did the young master know?"
Guo Lin's face couldn't help but change.
"Limber, can you tell me whose house it is?" Guo An asked again.
"This ......"
Guo Lin looked embarrassed, "Young master, don't ask, the old master and the lady have explained to the old servant, and they are not allowed to tell the young master any information, we can't afford to offend that family!" ”
"In that case, I won't ask!"
Guo An nodded casually, and then said: "Lin Bo has been tired all the way, rest for a while, and then let the kitchen stew a sea fish for Lin Bo to taste!" ”
"Thank you, young master!"
Guo Lin hurriedly thanked.
"Lin Bo doesn't need to thank you, from now on, we have a lot of sea fish, and you can eat as much as you want......"
Then, Guo An chatted with Guo Lin about the old parents who were still in Shunde Mansion.
After eating dinner, Guo An went into the study.
Seeing that Guo An did not react to the repentance of his marriage, Guo Lin breathed a sigh of relief and was a little sad at the same time.
Why doesn't my young master seem to be enlightened yet?
It's just that he was repented of his marriage like this, is Guo An really as calm as he seems on the surface?
At any time, repentance is a great shame for a man.
Even if Guo An is already very indifferent, he is still inexplicably unhappy!
It's just that the family in the south, and the old Guo family can't afford to mess with ......
One night, dozens of families flashed through Guo An's mind, but he didn't figure out which one it was!
However, there is still a long way to go!
Guo An doesn't believe it, there is no impermeable wall in the world!
Following.
Guo Lin took two two-foot-long frozen sea fish, got into a carriage, and went back to Guo Village, Shunde Mansion again.
And Guo An acted as if nothing had happened, and he was on the value normally!
The influence of textile shops is also gradually spreading in Peiping Province.
Even if the people of Wanping County deliberately concealed it, after all, there were still some foreign businessmen who wanted to take advantage of this opportunity to make money.
Therefore, the people of Daxing County first knew.
Then, there are the people of the five counties and four prefectures under the rule of Beiping Prefecture.
It's just that what makes those businessmen distressed is that whether it is the people of Wanping County or Daxing County, they are all running to the textile shop under the Yanwang Mansion.
They don't even look at the textile shop they opened to their doorstep!
As a result, the businessmen who have opened several OEM weaving shops are also anxious!
