Datang New Giants

Chapter 203 Layout
Lu Ting asked a few more questions, and only then did he understand what happened.

A group of street people want to eat free food, and want to use imitation lottery chips to eat free food, so that the blood monkey who is determined to recover the loss will be caught. The two sentences do not agree. With the blood monkey's character, it will definitely not make them feel better. The two sides soon fought Well, people from Jingzhao Mansion happened to visit here, and they wanted to take all the people back to investigate. This is the consistent style of Jingzhao Mansion.

At the critical moment, Cheng Yaojin happened to pass by here, so he didn't want to let the old brother be wronged, so he reprimanded the leader of the team a few words, so the people of Jingzhao Mansion only took away the troublemakers.

As for some people in Jingzhao Mansion that Shiliuer knew, he actually knew a small boss. If small things can be dealt with, this matter is related to Xia Weitang and Cheng Yaojin. Not to mention the small boss, even Jing Zhaoyin must give face.

"With Uncle Cheng, if it weren't for Uncle Cheng, there would be big trouble again." Lu Ting said gratefully.

With such a big incident in Chang'an City, and the resumption of business so soon, it is obvious that Cheng Yaojin's face is involved.

"It's all my own people, so there's no need to say polite words."

Cheng Chuliang was a little surprised and asked: "Aye, didn't you say that you have something to discuss in the Qin Palace, why are you here?"

"Passing by here, I accidentally saw my old brother being bullied by others, can you bear it?" Cheng Yaojin waved his hand and said, "Okay, it's okay, I'm going to the Qin Palace too, so there's no need to send it off."

As he was about to leave Chang'an, Cheng Yaojin also wanted to stay by Li Er's side as much as possible, try his best to persuade Li Er to make up his mind earlier, it was useless to stay here.

"Mr. Lu, are you okay?" Cheng Yaojingang left, Zheng Zihan came and asked with concern.

Zheng Yanzhi looked at the chivalrous hall that was still tidying up, and took the initiative to ask, "Mr. Lu, what can I do for the little girl's help?"

Lu Ting's heart moved, and he quickly said: "It really is true. There is a member of the Ministry of Industry named Zheng Cheng. He is from the Zheng family in Xingyang. You should know him."

"Uncle Zheng?" Zheng Yanzhi nodded and said, "It's a family, they must know each other, Mr. Lu has something to do with Uncle Zheng?"

Zheng Cheng is his uncle, who eats in the same lobby during the festival, can you not recognize him?
"Miss Zheng, you have seen it too. The house I bought has been in disrepair for a long time. I want to renovate it. It needs to be redesigned and built. I heard that Zheng Wailang is an authority in this area. I want to ask him to help, but I have never met Zheng Wailang. I'm afraid that he won't agree, and I hope that Miss Zheng can introduce her, and it's best to say a few good words."

I left in a hurry just now, I didn't have time to say it, and I regretted it, but I didn't expect the two of them to follow.

Zheng Yuanxuan's mansion was designed and supervised by Zheng Cheng, so he must know him.

It turned out to be like this, Zheng Yanzhi nodded and said: "Mr. Lu's residence is a little rough, and it should be rebuilt, but my uncle publicly said a long time ago that he would not take these jobs, so I don't know if I can persuade him, little girl, let's do my best. "

Uncle has the best relationship with Aye, and loves her very much. Zheng Yanzhi can be sure that as long as she speaks, her uncle will definitely agree, but if she agrees too quickly, Lu Ting will feel that this matter is not difficult, and she will not be able to show her own strength. credit.

It's good to whet his appetite first.

Zheng Zihan said with a smile: "Young Master Lu, don't worry, Zhimei is the little princess of Xingyang. As long as Zhimei asks about personnel matters related to the Zheng family in Xingyang, everything can be done."

It's a pity that my Aye has a very ordinary relationship with the uncle of this Ministry of Industry member Wailang, otherwise I would have volunteered to get closer to Lu Ting.

Lu Ting was overjoyed when he heard the words, and quickly said, "Thank you, Miss Zheng."

Zheng Yanzhi said flatly: "Young master Lu, you are polite, this matter has not been completed yet, well, Xia Weitang is fine, and the little girl will leave."

"Okay, Miss Zheng, please go slowly."

Zheng Yanzhi nodded, and pulled Zheng Zihan, who still didn't want to leave, into the carriage together, and quickly drove away.

It was like a relay race, once Zheng Yanzhi and Zheng Zihan left, Zhang Heng, Changsun Chong, Du He, Hou Mingyuan brought people over one after another, each of them was vicious, and even copied guys, causing many Marquis Wu to follow from afar.

I'm afraid that these noble sons will make trouble, and if they make trouble, they will also be implicated.

Needless to say, when they heard the news, they all rushed over.

Those street people were lucky, people from Jingzhao Mansion arrived first, if Changsun Chong arrived first, they would be carried away instead of being taken away.

When everyone arrived, Lu Ting simply called everyone to the quiet room at the back for a meeting.

"Those farm slaves and young people are lucky. If it was later, their legs would have to be discounted." Hou Mingyuan said through gritted teeth.

Chang Sun Chong echoed: "People are good at being bullied, and Ma Shan is being ridden by others. No way. If you let others know that you come to Xiaweitang to make trouble, that is, you will be fine after eating in the prison of Jingzhao Mansion and getting a few boards. Is his majesty, I know people in Jingzhao Mansion, let the jailers greet them well, don't think that hiding in the prison will be fine."

"You said, could it be Yin Shiju, the golden retriever, who did the trick?" Du He said worriedly.

"No," Chang Sun Chong said with certainty, "The matter of the golden retriever ambushing the boss, although there are evidences left, many people know that they did it. Let a few people ruin his big business, throw them all to the Jinwu Guard, and watch them die, they just have a heart, and now their hands are not long enough."

Yin Shiju, Yu Wenying, Zhang Lang, and Fang Shiqiang are four people who are top-notch in fighting and causing trouble. They are similar to Cheng Chuliang in reading. They are not the seeds of studying, but follow the path of generals. .

Lu Ting nodded secretly when he heard the words, no wonder that after he was ambushed, those dandies of the Golden Mouse seemed to disappear. He had never seen them show up, and he had never heard Cheng Chuliang talk about the appointment. With their previous frequency, they would fight at least twice a month. Second-rate.

Cheng Chuliang said with a look of disdain: "Those farm slaves run fast. Their fists are itching these days. I have long wanted to beat him up."

"That's right, it's best to beat him until Ye Niang can't recognize him." Hou Mingyuan said while pinching the knuckles of his fingers happily, making a crackling sound.

Zhang Heng couldn't help but interrupted: "Young masters, let's talk about those things later. The most important issue now is how to solve the fake lottery."

These aristocrats were talking about business, but they got off topic when they were talking. Zhang Heng was impatient and couldn't help interrupting them.

How you want to fight is your business. The most important thing now is how to solve the fake lottery.

The sale of Xiaweitang is directly related to the income of Wuyitang, so we point it to make more money and take good care of the old brothers in the hall.

Du He was thinking about this question just now, and he said quickly after hearing the words: "Those who caused troubles, we must teach them a profound lesson. It can be considered as an example, but it is only a warning, and it is of little effect. Some people are very courageous. Those who are not afraid of death, I think besides the police and intimidation, we need to work more in the Xiaweitang, either by adding more manpower, or by making several different sets of lottery tickets for exchange."

The blood monkey with the lowest status on the side said weakly: "Now there are four sets of lottery tickets, but each set only takes a day or two, and new fake lottery tickets will appear soon, so we can't make one set every day, right? , how about sending more characters?"

In the past half a month, there have been frequent incidents of false lottery signings. As the big shopkeeper, the blood monkey has been under too much pressure these days. He can't eat well, and he can't sleep well.

"If more people are sent, the cost will also increase. If the price increases, Xiaweitang will lose its reputation for high quality and low price. Will it affect the business?" Chang Sun Chong said with some concern.

Everyone started to weigh the advantages and disadvantages of each other, and no one could convince anyone for a while.

When the debate was raging, Cheng Chuliang suddenly said in a buzzing voice: "Stakes are easy to be imitated, that's too simple, we can make some lotteries that are difficult for others to imitate, isn't that okay?"

Chang Sun Chong's eyes lit up, he slapped his thigh and said: "What the third brother said makes sense, why don't you put a signature on each ticket, so that it is difficult for others to fake it."

"That's right, in addition to lottery tickets, we can also make riding tickets out of paper with a riding seal in the middle." Du He quickly had an idea.

Hou Mingyuan gritted his teeth and said: "Write another notice that those who use fake lottery will be dragged out and beaten after being caught, and sent to the officials after the beating."

Zhang Heng said to Lu Ting: "Brother Lu, you have been silent all this time, did you think of a way?"

As soon as the words fell, everyone stopped talking, and their eyes fell on Lu Ting.

I almost forgot that Lu Ting is the wisdom of so many people, it seems that there is nothing that can stump him.

Lu Ting nodded and said: "I do have some ideas. I want to make a special kind of paper. Only we have this kind of paper. Others can't prevent it. If we do this, all problems will be solved."

Without waiting for Zhang Heng to ask, Lu Ting continued: "That's right, that's it, let's build a paper workshop first, anyway, we will do it sooner or later, so let's do it together."

The scale of water trucks has reached [-], and new water trucks are still being produced. By then, the team will be even bigger. In Lu Ting's plan, the purpose of selling water is not to make money, but to build a kind of trust and support. It has become a habit, and the final goal is to use the established network to sell various commodities to end customers like the model of a certain group in later generations.

If you want to sell the price smoothly, you must promote the products. In ancient times, there was no electricity, and there were no tools such as smart phones. If you want to sell the goods smoothly, you must use leaflets to write out what products are available and what prices are sold. People in Chang'an City can place orders with water sellers and transporters, and it will be delivered to them the next day.

Now that there is no shortage of money, no shortage of personnel, the word-of-mouth we need for sales, and the establishment of a sales network, it is time for the next step.

As a book dealer, I would read all kinds of books when I was bored, and I happen to have a few improved papermaking methods in my mind, and if I do a good job of printing, then a big thing will happen.

By the way, we have successfully sold speeches and printed books.

Du He was a little surprised and said: "Boss, what do you mean, use paper instead of lottery tickets? Just use paper instead, and we don't need to make paper ourselves. The cost is too high."

It seems that if you want to eat mutton, you don't have to raise a flock of sheep yourself.

Hou Mingyuan echoed, "Yes, boss, isn't it too much trouble to do this?"

Chang Sun Chong and Cheng Chuliang didn't speak, but just looked at Lu Ting quietly.

Without even thinking about it, Zhang Heng agreed on the spot: "Brother Lu, if you say make it, then make it. I fully support it."

The longer we get along, the more Zhang Heng admires Lu Ting's vision. Now Zhang Heng has become Lu Ting's "little fan". As long as Lu Ting wants to do something, he will immediately express his support.

Without waiting for Lu Ting to answer, Zhang Heng quickly said, "At that time, we will have another paper business, right?"

"Yes." Lu Ting nodded with a smile.

Zhang Heng waved his fist and said decisively: "Okay then, we will make paper."

As long as there is a new project, Lu Ting will first consider the people of Wuyoutang. If he builds a paper-making workshop, he can arrange some brothers to work at that time, which is definitely a good deal for Zhang Heng.

Chang Sun Chong originally had some questions, but seeing that Lu Ting and Zhang Heng agreed, he couldn't say anything, so he asked, "Boss, what do you want to do with this paper workshop? Do you want to build it yourself or just buy one?" .”

"Building it by yourself, you have to start everything from scratch. It's a little troublesome. If there is a ready-made papermaking workshop and the price is right, it's better to accept it."

The turning point of the Tang Dynasty is coming soon, and now Lu Ting has not made enough preparations. It is not enough to follow the steps. If there are ready-made ones, it does not matter to spend more money. The most important thing is that it can save a lot of time.

Du He suddenly said: "Boss, I know that there is a paper mill with complete facilities and skilled craftsmen. It is currently for sale."

Hou Mingyuan's heart moved, and he couldn't help asking: "Fourth brother, what you said is the Fang family's ink fragrance workshop?"

"By the way, I didn't expect you to know." Du He said with a smile.

"I've heard about this a long time ago. Uncle Fang wanted to pass it on to me, Aye, but it didn't work out later." Hou Mingyuan said with a smile.

Lu Ting was a little confused, and asked, "What Moxiang Workshop? What charades are you two playing?"

"Boss, it's like this." Du He explained: "Moxiang Workshop is a paper mill located outside Tingxing Gate. It is owned by Uncle Fang Xuanling's house. It mainly uses tissue paper and bamboo paper. After working for a few days, Uncle Fang wanted to sell it, but either the buyer thought the location was too remote or Uncle Fang thought the price was too low, so he didn’t sell it.”

Fang Xuanling's property?

"Is this the property of Secretary Fang?" Lu Ting asked in surprise.

No way, with Fang Xuanling's wisdom, can't he manage a small paper mill?
Du He explained: "This paper mill was confiscated by the prince from a criminal official, and finally rewarded to Uncle Fang, but the cost of papermaking is high, and the quality is average. Most of the paper produced is supplied to the Qin Palace, but a Qin How much paper can the palace consume, it is certain that it will not be able to continue."

It turned out to be the case, Lu Ting nodded, and said, "Fourth brother, take me to have a look later, if we cooperate, we can talk again. By the way, Secretary Fang has transferred out of Chang'an, so I don't know if we can talk."

"Can talk." Du He chuckled, "Uncle Fang never cared about these things. Auntie is in charge of the family affairs. They have long wanted to sell. If we are sure, it's too late to be happy."
