Red Mansions: My Book is Cool

Li Junshan also came to Xuzhou after hearing the news.After Li Jingxing was promoted to Daotai in Sichuan, his family moved out of Xuzhou, and Li Junshan naturally followed.However, for the past six months, he has spent most of the time in Guizhou, concentrating on running the winery.If An Geer's words can come true, then he will be the No. 1 brewer who can brew this kind of excellent wine, and his winery has been famous all over the world since then.

In this life, he will not be able to achieve great achievements in fame.If you are lucky, you will be satisfied if you can be admitted to a scholar.However, if he could make a name for himself by brewing wine, like the 'tea saint' Lu Yu, he felt that his life would not be wasted.

As soon as the news of Lin Mingan's victory in Toad Palace came, Li Junshan knew that this little cousin would definitely go back to Xuzhou to pick up Chen Shi and Yi'an to Beijing.Therefore, he left for Syria a few days earlier and lived in the Lin family.He came this time and brought Lin Mingan a gift he would like.

"Brother An, look, I have experimented many times in the winery according to your method, and specially invited the master brewer to study together. After a lot of tossing, I finally brewed it! The brewed wine Put it into a wine jar, and put it in the cellar for several days to dissipate the miscellaneous smell and make it more mellow. How about you try it soon?" Li Mingan couldn't wait to bring the brewed wine with him when he heard that Lin Mingan was back. The wine arrived.

"In fact, I don't like drinking very much. You should judge it by people who are good at tasting wine, such as uncle and grandpa! There is a specialization in art!" Lin Ming'an suggested.

"I also sent it to my grandfather. After he tasted it, he liked it very much. He said that after drinking this wine, he felt that the previous wine had no taste, and it was very appetizing to him. He also said that in the future, his wine will be made by I made it up, and he didn't drink any other wine. I was worried that he said this to comfort me because I was his grandson. I specially invited those famous people who are proficient in this way to taste it, and they were full of praise. I also took out a little and sold it to customers in high-end restaurants. The price was so high that the supply was in short supply. People who had drunk this wine repeatedly asked to sell them more, and would rather pay two or three times the price. But I dare not Selling, I want to ask your opinion! I also sent people to watch very closely in the winery, and the secret will not be leaked, just rest assured!" Li Junshan said excitedly.Once one winery is successful, it is possible to open a second one, such as in Yichang mentioned by An Geer.It is in Sichuan Province, under the rule of my grandfather, it is more convenient to do things.

Seeing that the seeds planted by myself are about to blossom and bear fruit, and the harvest is huge, why not make people feel happy?It's not just about how much money you make, but the kind of career success that makes people feel more fulfilled and at ease.

"Cousin, hot pot is an idea I came up with, but you see it spread quickly. Now there are many people who open hot pot restaurants in Sichuan. It can be seen that this can make money, and it is not a particularly complicated business. Everyone will follow suit. Yes. If you want to monopolize your own business, it’s impossible, and it’s not government-run like Yantie, and others don’t dare to reach out.” Lin Mingan poured cold water on his cousin who was getting excited: “So, this method of brewing wine has been explored by others. Come out, sooner or later!"

"What!" Li Junshan was surprised and angry: "The secret recipe is the lifeblood! If you do crafts, if you catch the person who steals the teacher and kill others, you should say it should be done. The people who use it in our workshop are signed. Whoever dares to do this, I will kill him!"

"If it was really stolen, the people behind the scenes don't care about handing over a scapegoat to fool the past. Besides, the law does not blame everyone. Each of us only has one pair of eyes and two hands. Can we handle it?"

"You can't just watch it, it's tantamount to letting others steal our money!" Li Junshan was very aggrieved.

"Look at Xuzhou. With so many hot pot restaurants nowadays, is the old Lin family's business the best? Because we were the first to open, the people have preconceived their impressions of our family, so they enjoy the most bonuses!" ——Just like a time-honored brand in modern society, unless you mess up and smash the signboard, your business will not be bad.Like those leading countries in the international community, they occupy most of the world's interests. If emerging countries want to counterattack, they will have to pay a huge price and make arduous efforts to catch up!Time, sometimes is of the essence!

"In the past, everyone used the same brewing method, but isn't the wine produced still different? Why did I choose Chishui Riverside? It is because of the special water, soil and climate there that it can produce unparalleled wine. Yichang The same is true. Therefore, we don’t have to worry, when we meet on a narrow road, the winner wins.”

"If you are unwilling, I have another idea. We might as well sell this method! The secret recipe that we have worked hard to make is for you to use to make good wine. I didn't like these soft drinks in the north and on the grasslands. , Overseas, will be tempted, calculate how much the sales have expanded? I have made a lot of money, so it is not too much for us to pay for our hard work?" Lin Mingan said calmly and calmly.

"Of course it should!" Li Junshan blurted out, and said discouragedly: "That's only if someone is willing to give it to you! Since you can do things like steal prescriptions, can you expect him to find out with his conscience? Brother An, you put those The profiteers think too well!"

"We alone can't do it!" Lin Ming'an said with a smile, "So, I'm going to bring a big Buddha to town, that's Prince Zhongshun. I'll give him a copy of our prescription directly, and ask him to share it too. The profit from it. If someone comes to steal this craft in the future, it will be equivalent to stealing his silver. And, it will directly hit him in the face!"

"If that's the case, then it's all right!" Li Junshan was overjoyed, and hesitated again: "But he is a royal nobleman, will he pay attention to us? Besides, you will be an official in the future, and you have such interests to entangle with him, Yushi Will they bother you? Your Majesty, your Majesty will also be suspicious and displeased?"

"Don't worry, I got acquainted with him. He came to me at the order of the emperor. The emperor will not be displeased by the courtiers earning some money for themselves to support their families reasonably and legally. It's better than the courtiers taking bribes. Besides Now, some selfish ministers, maybe the emperor will feel more at ease." Cao Xueqin's family was finally liquidated by Yongzheng, the main reason was that they were on the wrong side politically, not because they were short of money from the treasury.Yongzheng still pays great attention to clean and honest government, and he is an emperor who doesn't rub the sand in his eyes!

"Besides, I just presented the method of wool spinning to the imperial court. What a huge industry it is! With this, the pressure on the imperial court on the northern grasslands has been greatly reduced, and the control ability has been greatly increased. This entry and exit saves money. How much trouble! The emperor still wants to reward me, and still care about this matter?"

"The business of brewing wine is a long-running business. I'm afraid the emperor hasn't paid much attention to it. Or, should we directly pass it through his hands and give it to the emperor?"

"But the profit in this business is very high. If we can take up more shares." Li Junshan has figured out the way to do it after the actual operation, and naturally wants to take a step closer, but he is really reluctant.This is not a secret recipe, it is silver, their own silver!

Lin Mingan shook his head: "We only need to be the most high-end among them and make a name for ourselves. We are successful. The towering trees block all the sunlight, and the grass and trees below cannot grow. If you are greedy, you will make countless enemies! If you ask uncle Grandpa, he'd say the same."

Seeing that Li Junshan was a little frustrated, Lin Mingan smiled: "Cousin, have you ever thought about how to turn the wine we brewed into imperial use and become a tribute? If cousin wants to start a business, he can win the title of imperial merchant." The business we can do in the future is not limited to this one, and we need to take a long-term view. After all, I will still be an official in the future, so it is not very convenient. I have to rely on my cousin to run the business. To run a business, otherwise, how can the salary alone be enough to support a family, let alone maintain the dignity of being an official."

"If my cousin wants to gain fame in the future, that's another story. But you have brothers under you, even if you let them get this title, it's a good thing."

"Queen, tribute, imperial merchant?" Li Junshan would not have believed it if he hadn't known that An Ge'er never spoke big words.Just open a winery to make wine, can it be made into a tribute for the queen?Emperor Shang is also a title that is difficult to get, and basically he was supported in the founding of the country by the Communist period.A dozen or so merchant families who have made great achievements occupy it.

"Cousin, let me bring you back to the capital as much wine as you have in the wine shop. I have many teachers, colleagues, and fellow students, and there are often people invited to various banquets for Jinshi in the new department. There are no white people in those places. Going to invite everyone to sign a bottle of wine can quickly gain a reputation, which is much better than selling it outside. More importantly, send some to Prince Zhongshun. Our winemaking industry needs to rely on his strength." —The smell of wine is also afraid of deep alleys, and many modern online celebrity products may not be very good, but they are very successful and widely known, and they can quickly become popular.In ancient times when information dissemination was not smooth, the first thing to do was to choose to become famous in the capital, and to be sought after by celebrities and nobles would naturally be worth a hundred times.It would be even better if he could be favored by the emperor, but it is a pity to hear that Emperor Yongjia is not as good as wine.

"Your packaging is not good either!" Lin Mingan looked at the plain wine jar with critical eyes: "People rely on clothing, Buddha depends on gold ornaments! No matter how good the wine is, it will lose its style in this kind of jar. Go Order high-quality porcelain bottles, and use different bottles according to different years in the future. It’s just that no matter what kind of porcelain bottle it is, it must be elegant and special, and it’s best to make it unforgettable and impressive at first sight.”

Lin Mingan searched for the patterns of fine porcelain that he had seen in his memory, and felt that blue and white porcelain was more elegant and generous, which appealed to both taste and taste, so he decided to use blue and white porcelain to make wine bottles!Barbie dolls have been selling well for many years in the previous life. One of the important reasons is that producers continue to introduce new styles to Barbie, which keeps everyone interested in buying for a long time.The mellow taste of Moutai must always maintain a stable quality, but the packaging can be replaced with beautiful bottles regularly to give people a sense of freshness. The so-called "clothes are not as good as new, people are not as good as old"!

He remembers a collector who proudly showed off his porcelain collection.Because the numbers from one to ten are basically complete, neat and tidy, which is impressive. Until now, he can still remember most of them: All the way Lianke, Erlong Xizhu, Sanyang Kaitai (Samsung Gaozhao) ), Four Seas Peace, Five Blessings, Eight Treasures Lianchun (Eight Immortals Crossing the Sea), Nine Autumn Celebrations... You can also make more beautiful patterns. It is best that this wine bottle is like a fine work of art. People can't help but want to collect them.

In this way, even if the taste of the wine is only mediocre, there are still people willing to cheer for this beautiful wine bottle.What's more, Lin Ming'an firmly believed that their wine was of excellent quality and would not disappoint.

Lin Mingan was talking to Li Junshan about his own ideas, and drew a few patterns at random: "Cousin, I'm not an expert in painting, you'd better find someone who is good at it to design, and you can also match it next to the painting." The poems of famous masters are even more extraordinary."

He stopped writing, looked up, and saw Li Junshan staring blankly at him, thinking that he felt sorry for the high cost of this wine bottle, so he persuaded him: "Cousin, it will naturally be a little more expensive to order such a wine bottle. But let's go What you want is a high-end route, what you want is this extravagance and exquisiteness, you can’t save this money, and you will eventually earn back ten times and a hundred times. Besides, if the sales volume is large, the cost of ordering wine bottles can also be reduced.”

"Brother An, I don't care about money!" Li Junshan shook his head: "I'm just wondering, why do you have so many wonderful ideas? I have met many scholars, and none of them are like you! They are businessmen, Can’t think of those ideas either.”

Lin Ming'an laughed at himself: "Maybe, I was a profiteer in my previous life?" He paused, and then corrected: "No, it's a Confucian businessman, a big businessman!" , full of copper stink.However, in some countries in previous lives, businessmen and even political masters were able to manipulate many politicians for their own use.

"No wonder grandpa told me again and again that the master is a teacher. You must follow Ange closely, and you will benefit a lot in the future!" Li Junshan said straightforwardly: "I believe in Ange, you will never treat your own people badly. My brain is not as good as yours, so I'll just do what you say in the future!"

Lin Mingan looked at Li Junshan for a while, his trust and sincerity were quite moving.

Lin Ming'an thought for a while, smiled slightly, and said to him: "Since my cousin trusts me so much, I will tell you to do two things."

"Brother An, just give orders!" Li Junshan agreed wholeheartedly.

"The first thing, our family is going to the capital. Please help me find a good buyer for the industry in Xuzhou, and handle it properly. It will be more calm. The money I get will be used in the winery to expand the scale of production. If you can buy wool, try to hoard as much as possible, and you will not suffer a loss whether you run a textile workshop or sell it for money in the future."

"Also, go and buy some ordinary wine, and use my wine-making method to refine it again and again to make the wine stronger until it can no longer be purified. I am going to give you a credit as well." Lin Mingan Chao Li Junshan smiled with a serious face.
