It takes a period of time for the rubber grass to produce results, especially to stabilize the results, and it is necessary to form the planting of rubber grass into a stable industry, so Gu Zhao does not put all his hopes on the rubber grass. It will take a short time for the money to come, so that the people of Yaochang Mansion can see the desired products.
The development of Yaochang Mansion requires money, and the development of arable land and irrigation in the future will also require a large amount of money. Gu Zhao feels that it will take a long time to solve the environmental problems of Yaochang Mansion. To get a large amount of money, he can't just rely on him to spend the money alone.
Gu Zhao arranged manpower for Gu Ren, and surrounded a large area of wasteland for the development and planting of rubber grass. At the same time, the government office also posted a notice to purchase wild rubber grass and seeds. The price of a copper plate.
When this notice was posted and someone specially assigned to interpret it to the common people, and sent people to the surrounding area to publicize it, many people wondered if their ears had heard it wrong. Weeds that were unwilling to be stepped on in the wasteland could be delivered to the public. Yamen for money?
People kept asking whether this matter was true or not, or if they picked weeds and sent them to the Yamen, they told them it was all fake, so let them be busy for nothing.
The people in Yaochang Mansion have a lower level of trust in the government than in other places. This is not caused by Gu Zhao, but the result of the previous officials and the four major families.
The yamen servants explained that their mouths were almost dry, but no one has trouble with money in this world, whether it is true or not, as long as you take this weed to the yamen to have a look, you will know, there will always be a part that is short of money Those who had nowhere to go, took this notice as a life-saving straw, and went to the wild to look for the weeds designated by the yamen.
There were also neighbors of the previous guide. The guide had picked a lot of this kind of weeds before, and then he didn’t know where to send them. It was not convenient, so I simply confessed.
It turns out that this weed can really be exchanged for money, and the guide used to exchange for more money, but unfortunately it is now the same price as everyone else.
The people who first collected rubber grass did not dare to pick too much. They gathered a few catties and carefully went to the city to go to the Yamen. There was a stall in front of the Yamen, which was specially used to buy rubber grass. Why do they need this weed? They even discuss in private whether their adults have too much money to spend, and they want to help the poor people in this way.
But one thing is certain, the adult is very kind-hearted and a good person.
Gu Zhao didn't even know that his image in the minds of these officers was such a "Holy Mother".
The people wanted to stay away from the guards, so they didn't dare to approach them at first, but watched from afar. When the guards saw these people appearing with sacks and baskets, they quickly moved out a basket of copper coins. , In the end, the desire and desire for money surpassed the fear of the guards, and he stepped forward cautiously, stammering and asking. The guards weighed them readily, and counted out the copper coins and handed them to them.
"Hurry up and take it, and hurry up and find some more of these weeds before our lord replies."
With the copper coins in their hands, these poor people have a sense of reality, and they kept pounding: "Okay, okay, let's go outside the city to collect."
So they didn't even bother to eat, turned around and ran out of the city to pick weeds, and they could really exchange for copper coins. The officials didn't lie this time, so the other watching people also exploded and ran away in a swarm Going out of the city to find this designated weed, and some people even picked other weeds cleverly and sent them to the yamen, asking the officials if they would accept them, which made the officers dumbfounded.
Baskets of copper plates were thrown out, and baskets of rubber grass were brought back, and sent to the workshop that Gu Ren had just built. Gu Ren and several skilled workers he brought were busy.
The action this time is not insignificant, especially when the baskets of copper coins are thrown out, not to mention the poor people, even the four families are almost out of their eyes. How rich is the new magistrate? Throwing money out like this?
And what is the name of the weed?Including Fang Tongzhi, people found the same weeds and thought about it at home. Unfortunately, the weeds are still weeds, and the tenderest ones taste bitter, and they can't find any value. The new magistrate What are you playing?
Patriarch Yan also made people think about it, but unfortunately the result was the same as Fang's family. He had no clue. Patriarch Yan was very confused: "What the hell is Master Gu doing with this weed? It must have collected several thousand catties before and after, and those poor people are dying. The land outside the city was bald."
Boss Yan said contemptuously: "It must be a mystery, or it is a naive fool who changed the way to give money to those poor people."
Patriarch Yan looked at his eldest son with the eyes of a fool: "You will be such a fool? Then why do you think that Mr. Gu is such a fool? What a fool can become a fourth-rank official at this age? "
The boss of the Yan family continued to complain: "Then he was sent to our backcountry?"
Patriarch Yan shook his head, ignoring his idiot son, he always thought that Gu Zhao would buy so many weeds must be useful for him, he found out that Gu Zhao's nephew was here, and after he came, he brought a group of people to set up a workshop, and the weeds were all gone. It was sent to his nephew's workshop, but he couldn't find out what was going on in the workshop, and the secrets were obviously inside.
It's a pity that they are too far away from the capital city and the Central Plains, and they don't know the details about Gu Zhao's situation from Fang Tongzhi.
The whole city was busy because of Gu Zhao's announcement, and even the people in the city who could live on went out to find weeds. At this time, Gu Zhao brought some people to be busy with other things. He wanted to find those herdsmen. Buy sheep oil from them that is of no use.
What is the purchased sheep oil used for?Naturally, it was used to make sheep oil soap, and he also negotiated a deal with Manager Zhao, which was to ask Manager Zhao to purchase sheep oil from other places for him.
There is not much arable land in Yaochang Mansion and its surrounding areas, but there are many sheep raising families, and the mutton here cannot be sold at a high price. The sheep raised are basically used by the four families and passing caravans. Now the border town officials are also buying mutton to make canned meat, but the use of mutton oil has always been inappropriate, and at most it is picked up by the people and boiled into oil for consumption.
When deciding to develop suet soap, Gu Zhao also wrote a letter to Qi Yunfei and Song Ze. After all, although he came up with the soap recipe, the soap business is a partnership of three people, so he had to ask for their advice. Agree to operate.
Song Ze's reply was quick. He had been doing nothing all these years, and thought that this matter could be completely decided by Gu Zhao himself.
When Qi Yunfei’s reply letter reached Gu Zhao, he was halfway there. He told Gu Zhao in the letter that he was very happy to help Gu Zhao build the soap workshop. He brought some skilled workers and stewards, and he might help Gu Zhao train Send out a group of people.
Gu Zhao read the letter and was very grateful for what Second Brother Qi did. He met Second Brother Qi when he was in his infancy. Now that he is in trouble, Second Brother Qi still let go of his own affairs and came to support him without saying a word, yes. , Gu Zhao thought it was support, how much money can Yaochang Mansion earn at this time?Regardless of the high status of the four families in the city, the wealth accumulated by them over the generations is probably not as much as that of Zhao and Qi Yunfei selling soap, let alone they have other businesses.
In fact, Guanshi Zhao was very puzzled and Gu Zhao asked him to purchase discarded suet oil. Those who had the slightest qualifications did not like to eat this oil, because the taste was quite strong.
Gu Zhao smiled inscrutably: "I heard that soap and scented soap are very popular in border towns and outside the customs? What does Guanshi Zhao think of this business?"
Zhao Guanshi stared straight: "Could it be that this sheep oil can be used to make soap?"
Gu Zhao smiled and didn't answer, but Manager Zhao had already guessed the answer and was very surprised. If soap could really be made, then the discarded mutton oil could be turned into treasure by turning around. He still entrusted Li's family with Gu Zhao. Because of his relationship with him, he can often get soap and scented soap to sell in the border towns, which is a lot of profit for his caravan, but unfortunately it still can't meet the demand. If there is soap for sale in Yaochang City, it will definitely attract many merchants.
Sure enough, compared to doing business, no one can compare to Gu Zhao. No wonder some people call Gu Zhao the God of Wealth.
Manager Zhao turned around and took people to the place where sheep were slaughtered to buy sheep oil for Gu Zhao. Gu Zhao led people around and negotiated an agreement with sheep farmers to buy sheep oil.
After a long journey, Qi Yunfei finally saw the city wall of Yaochang City. His mood was the same as when Gu Zhao saw it for the first time. It was really dilapidated, but he believed that with Gu Zhao, this situation would change soon.
After entering the city, Qi Yunfei didn't delay, and went to see Gu Zhao immediately. The two reunited in Yaochang Mansion, and they were both a little excited. In recent years, Gu Zhao and Qi's second brother didn't meet much. The focus of the business is on Qingling Mansion instead of moving to the capital, just to avoid causing too much trouble for Gu Zhao, and also because staying in the place makes his backing stronger.
"Brother Qi, it's great that you can come."
"If you need it, how can Second Brother Qi not show up? To put it bluntly, Gu Zhao, the smoother your official career is, the better it will be for me."
Gu Zhao didn't mind Qi Yunfei speaking so frankly. He had noticed in the past two years that Qi Yunfei and the Qi family had always had a bottom line in doing business. Gu Zhao felt that he did not misunderstand the second brother Qi.
Gu Zhao laughed: "Yes, we are a win-win situation, but no matter what, I am still grateful to Brother Qi for coming to help me at this time."
Qi Yunfei smiled and said, "It's easy to say."
Although Gu Zhao intends to develop the soap industry in Yaochang City, which seems to be an impact on their joint soap business, but Qi Yunfei takes a long-term view. No matter how tightly guarded the workshop is, the soap recipe will be leaked sooner or later, or it will be exposed. Others figured it out, as long as their workshops can stabilize the current market, and if they give up part of it, whoever says it can't bring more benefits, the Qi family can follow Gu Zhao and expand other business channels.
Besides, the soap recipe was originally given by Gu Zhao, and even if Gu Zhao didn't say hello to him, Qi Yunfei didn't think there was anything wrong with it, and Gu Zhao specifically asked for his consent. Still the same as before, he didn't underestimate their friendship, so Qi Yunfei rushed to help Gu Zhao no matter what.
The development of Yaochang Mansion requires money, and the development of arable land and irrigation in the future will also require a large amount of money. Gu Zhao feels that it will take a long time to solve the environmental problems of Yaochang Mansion. To get a large amount of money, he can't just rely on him to spend the money alone.
