Chapter 156 Great industrial development, how difficult it is to buy a horse! Tatar.

Chapter 156: With great development in industry, it is so difficult to buy a horse! Tatar.

"Jincheng Satin Floor?" Tens of thousands of posts were posted all over the streets of Pingjiang Mansion, announcing that Boss Li had taken new measures, but this time the momentum changed the color of Pingjiang Mansion.

First of all, everyone in the yamen received a valuable gift list. The order came with a invitation. The owner of the satin shop included a package from the bottom to the third floor in Pingjiang's best restaurant, "Langya Pavilion", and invited all the masters to enjoy the scenery. There were not many men in the port, and they were even at the top of the price higher than the deacons in the prefecture. Originally, ordinary merchants did not have the qualifications to invite officials from the heads of the yamen to the banquet, but the Jincheng business has a special status in Jiangnan. Anyone with a little in the officialdom knows that there is an indescribable relationship between Yang Zaixing and Zhao Gou. Even a person like Qin Hui dared to deal with Yang Zaixing easily, let alone the rest? Jincheng business account

The business is doing well in Jiangnan. In addition to the fact that the local officials are still careful in their work, the depth of the background of the official is also eye-catching. If there are local officials who are not aware of the depth, the business name is also a literary astronomy of "The Great Jin governor Zezhou Prefecture". When they get off the sedan, even the prefect was shocked: the officials of all government offices who have almost no contact on weekdays have arrived! That's not all, even seven or eight officials from the capital in Lin'an City, and three senior military officers at the deputy chief of the military in the front office of the hall. This show is almost obvious to tell the officials of Pingjiang Prefecture that this satin shop has a deep background. If you want to make things difficult for all, please consider your own importance!

As soon as Yang Zaixing's letter arrived in Lin'an, Wang Lan invited officials of all sizes and big and small, and there was almost a green light. She didn't accept the post. Meng Chong and others accepted the gifts and felt a little embarrassed. So they led hundreds of soldiers to Pingjiang to support the scene for the satin workshop. Sure enough, Yang Zaixing mocked himself in Jincheng: "If I want to develop the tail of capitalism, it is not too much to collude with officials and businessmen first, right?" This move came directly from 900 years later, and it was just as wonderful and practical.

Li De had no master at the dinner: Just kidding, everyone here is a person with a parent or above. Although Li De was not apologized when he was in the army, he only sold the face of Mr. Yue and Yang Zaixing at most. But what is his current identity? A small merchant has a social status that is not as good as those who are drying salt on the beach! If Wang Lan hadn't been greatly encouraged by him, even wanting to escape in such a scene, Wang Lan couldn't help but sigh: "Old Li has been in vain in Jiangnan in the past few years! After hanging up the Jincheng land sign, who will be afraid of being in Jiangnan?" It was only Yang Zaixing's careful instructions that he would not let Wang Lan go from behind the scenes to the front of the stage, which made Li De become a nominal boss. When Li De was so arrogant and regarded the governors as if nothing had happened, it was already many years later. Now he could not escape the inferiority complex of the small vendors.

When the officials saw Li De's respect and joy, they were all very happy, and for Yang Zaixing's sake, who dared to make things difficult for him? At the moment, the guests and hosts were having fun. Wang Lan only talked and laughed with Meng Chong and others during the meal, but did not say a word of nonsense with other civil officials. Meng Chong, Cai Jin and others also felt that Wang Lan was tactful and had a great time to get along with each other.

After the table, Li De led the way, and hundreds of sedan chairs from all over the world were lined up to visit the forging workshop. This was also a gimmick designed by Yang Zaixing, just to expand the influence of the satin workshop. In fact, Li De shares less than 30% of the shares in the satin workshop, which was given to him when Yang Zaixing was particularly generous. If it were about the stock capital, Li De was less than 10%. With the strong financial support of Jincheng Business, the newly built satin workshop was amazing in scale. It covers an area of ​​more than 100 acres in the suburbs of the city and is more than 100 acres of Su-style windows built on the walls of more than 100 meters high. The garden scenery in the yard is vaguely visible. When the officials were getting off the sedan chair at the stone archway outside the gate, they saw that the four large characters "Jincheng Satin Floor" written by Hong Hao were three feet in square radius. The brushwork was powerful and exquisite, and they were praised. I was even more amazed when I saw the large mansion with a range of hundreds of acres.

At this moment, there are still increasing new "employees" registered at the side door. The heads of each "workshop" are eager to call in. The officials can naturally not see these outside the main door. However, after entering the door, the silk production line that has already begun trial production still opened their eyes: from purchasing silk cocoons to finally stacking them into the warehouse to wait for transportation, all links can be seen here. The stewing, boiling, weaving, dyeing, and embroidery are relatively independent, but the paths are winding. In the center, there is a huge "office area" covering an area of ​​five acres, which is not inferior to the main houses of the wealthy families. Although it has not reached the scale designed by Yang Zaixing, there are more than 300 people in the workshop "working". On the ground in the south of the Yangtze River, except for the large countryside manors, no private production unit has this scale. Of course, Da Nei is another special case. The craftsmen there have reached more than 120 types of jobs alone, and the scale is even larger.

However, it is not a place that every citizen or official can visit. The existence of Jincheng Satin Floor Land allows officials and people of this era to see for the first time what "massive production" is! A large number of refugees from Hebei who were not allocated enough land were attracted by the high salaries here and actively demanded "working in the workshop", allowing Li De's chief officials to pick up all the people, such as selecting livestock. Jincheng Satin Floor purchases of raw silk and silk cocoons at market prices, which also increased the price of raw materials within 300 miles of Lin'an by 20%, and the silkworms were smiling.

At this moment, the officials who visited the yard, including the civil and military officials in Lin'an City, were amazed at the scale of production in the yard, but they did not expect that the existence of this satin shop would have such a great subsequent impact. The reputation of the satin shop was spread throughout the prefectures and counties around Lin'an through these officials. After half a year later, when the vendors who purchased raw silk cocoons ran to Lingnan, the reputation of the satin shop had already spread throughout the south of the Yangtze River. Even Zhao Gou, who had been in the great house for a long time, smiled at Empress Wei: "If the mother wants to go out of the palace, the satin shop in Pingjiang is a place to go."

Needless to say, the people of Pingjiang have hundreds of official sedans walking on the street, and the situation is much stronger than the wealthy people in later generations who use hundreds of Mercedes-Benz to marry their daughters. From then on, everyone knows that the status of Satin Floor in the officialdom is no less than that of most officials sitting in sedans! Li De gradually grew his momentum and began to treat ordinary officials of prefectures and counties with an equal attitude. Of course, this equality is based on a large amount of private money exchanges, otherwise it would not last long.

Yang Zaixing entrusted the satin shop to Wang Lan, and the cost of more than 50,000 yuan was dispatched from the Jiangnan branch of the shop, and copied all the investment books to the Jincheng account room for review. However, in Jincheng, another "industry" was also vigorously constructed: "Jincheng Lao Shao" began to steam the first batch of wine since the end of June. It adopted the cellar fermentation and red mud sealing technology of later generations. The conversion rate of grain was greatly increased, and the more developed cast iron technology also allowed the distillation utensils to be complete and the wine level increased. The raw pulp wine produced reached a height of more than 50 degrees! The wine yield rate of 100 kilograms of grain also reached an astonishing thirty-one kilograms!

Hong Hao is a frequent visitor to the winery village. At first, he was puzzled by spending tens of thousands of yuan to build a large "winter". Moreover, this factory was built in a mountain that was only a few miles away from the firearms. It was very inconvenient to travel, but before the storage of these wine cellars expired. Hong Hao was completely conquered when he tasted the first batch of raw wine: Where can the small furnace and small stove produce such intensity cellar wine? The large number of fine wines contained in the jars appeared in the Zezhou and Luzhou yamen, and the rest were all stored in the secret caves of the Taihang Mountains.

"Mr. Zhang, based on the price of wine from Jiangnan and Shangjing, how much is this kind of wine worth per pound?" Yang Zaixing asked Hong Hao in the yamen at this time.

"Zhang Ziyu" smiled a little while before giving a thumbs up: "What Lord Yang did is indeed surprising. Such fine wine is now on the market. I am afraid that the wine shops on the ground in Jiangnan and Hebei can change their signatures to sell vinegar! When I was in Beijing, such a bad wine would have to be five or six kilograms. If it were such good wine, I was afraid that one kilogram would not be able to buy one kilogram! Ten thousand stones of wine and grain would get 300,000 kilograms, which would be no less than fifteen times the profit. I am very smart!"

Yang Zaixing waved his hand: "What if you store this wine cellar for more than a year, then put it in a fine porcelain bottle, wrap it with silk satin, and then put it in a wooden box. What if you sell it in a limited quantity?"

Hong Hao was speechless and could not speak for a while: "Where did Lord Yang come from this kind of business practice? Those who are really capable can do everything!" After careful calculation, if this algorithm is just a packaging outside the wine, there will be a single pot. If it is sold, it is afraid that there will be no need for five or six pots! What is that sky-high price? No wonder this winery dares not build in the city, but is built in Taihang Mountains: If the merchants in Jiangnan and Hebei have seen such a craft and copied it, how can they still be sold?

However, what Yang Zaixing cares most was Luo Yan, who went north to buy a horse.

In the Jincheng branch of Datong Prefecture, Luo Yan was worried. Sun Tongfu, the head of the Datong branch, was also relatively speechless. Although the table of wine and food was still far from Luo Yan's food level in Jincheng, both of them were tasteless, and the brothers in the room next to him were shouting and eating happily. It was difficult to relieve their worries.

"Master Luo. How can Lord Yang know the situation of the White Tatar? Old Sun has been here for more than ten years, and although he has been working for Master Luo for less than two years, but the little one has refused the matter that Master Luo has given? However, this Wang Gu tribe was enthroned by the Great Jin Dynasty. The Khan was accompanied by thieves on every step of his journey on the thousand-mile grassland outside the Great Wall. The remaining small tribes were beaten to death by the soldiers in Datong Mansion, so there were a few good horses, and they had to be sold at a low price as set by the officials. How dare they sell them to me? If they were knocked out, we would still have to do a little bit of work. Those small tribes were afraid of extermination!"

Sun Tongfu talked to Luo Yan for a long time, but Luo Yan didn't know how difficult it was! But Yang Zaixing was a major event in life and death. If there were no good horses, the horses in the Jincheng army would be exhausted sooner or later, and they would be equipped with some bad horses, which would be pitiful and unbearable. Could it be that after a few years, when the training was available, he could only defend the city in Zezhou and Luzhou?

Yang Zaixing naturally could not imagine that the Wang Gu tribe had been controlled by the Jin people and could not even lose a horse, but the situation was banned. Luo Yanyeliang was unwilling to go back to Jincheng empty-handedly. After gritting his teeth for a while, he suddenly asked: "If you don't buy horses with the Wang Gu tribe, where should you go to buy a good horse?"

Lao Sun trembled all over: "Master Luo, what do you mean is to find those barbarians of the Black Tatar?"

When Luo Yan heard this, his eyes lit up and he slapped the table and said, "Sure enough, someone is willing to sell it?"

Sun Tongfu shook his head: "This is probably even more difficult! The Black Tatars are naturally willing to trade, but they are much more dangerous. They are afraid that it will be easy to go, but they are difficult to come back! There are a few familiar people in the Kelie tribe who came to Datong to buy tea and silk, but they only came once every six months and left the previous month. Next time, they came again. There are many barbarian tribes, and even the Jin army's elite cavalry brigade, they would never dare to go there without any preparation. This is not the most difficult thing. If Sun asks someone to lead the way, he can probably go there for two things, but if there are thousands of horses, how can he get through the Wanggu tribe and the ground in Hebei and drive it to Jincheng? Unless..."

Luo Yan hurriedly asked, "Unless it is like this?"

Sun Tongfu shook his head even more violently: "Unless it is over the Daxia Kingdom and sent by the Xia people to Jincheng through Yan'an Prefecture, it will be extremely difficult if it is done by our business names. But where is the Daxia Kingdom willing to help people?"

Luo Yan remembered Ren Zhicai and laughed loudly: "Brother Sun doesn't have to worry too much, just find someone to lead the way. Luo has his own concerns in Daxia!"

Old Sun was puzzled, but saw Luo Yan extremely confident. He expected someone to be available in Daxia. He did not refuse and contacted the person. However, he was a black Tatar who was stranded after Kelie's troops came to Datong for transactions. At night, Sun and his two friends came back with a "skin bag". When they looked carefully, they were a drunk man with a drunken beard with dark skin and a few small braids on his hair. They were just so messy that they were foul and smelly. I don't know where they picked it up. The single shirt with wool was already so black that it had lost its original color. It had broken several big holes and could not cover the body.

"Master Luo, this son is called Shu Chi, and he was the person brought by Kelie's army last time. When the brigade left Datong last time, he could not find this person, but he was drunk in a restaurant and couldn't get up. So he missed it. In two months, he had a month and a half of the time to eat our semicolon rice. He gave him some money and didn't return home. He knew that it was ours, so he didn't make any trouble. When the money was not enough, he would take it on the semicolon account. This person definitely recognized the way!" Lao Sun covered his nose and introduced that Luo Yan couldn't help but be happy. Seeing that the boy on the ground was covered with a strong body, he was actually more majestic than most brothers, but he was so unbearable.

At night, the snoring sound of Shu Chi can slowly wake up.
