Nakashima is even more lively.

At Zheng Peng's suggestion, the braised meat adopted the strategy of reducing the price and volume, and the demand was already strong.

For readers, a pot of wine and a pack of braised pork is the best enjoyment, which further improves the business of braised meat.

Scholars are also greedy, eating and feeling delicious, in order to eat more, it is okay to exaggerate the efficacy, so that many elders are crazy to pay for it, hoping that their own family will also "eat" a big talent, the surge in sales has promoted the expansion of the scale, Guo Ketang suddenly added another 100 people to enter.

Not all of them into the braised meat processing workshop, half of them formed a team to buy live pigs, four out of the purchase of live pigs, with a pig 150 pounds of calculation, every day to kill more than 100 pigs to take meat, in order to stabilize the supply of braised meat, the pigs in your township can not last a few days on the gone, driven by demand, is the price of live pigs has also risen nearly twenty percent.

The rise in prices has prompted a pig boom among the people in the vicinity, and Guo Ketang is also determined to speed up the plan for large-scale pig farming.

The price of live pigs has risen, and Zheng Peng's plan to develop a variety of braised meat has also been implemented, so that Zhongdao has become more and more prosperous.

Zheng Peng came to Zhongdao, in addition to inspecting the latest production situation, there is also a purpose, that is, to cooperate with Guo Fu to develop printing technology.

Compared with braised pork, Guo Ketang obviously paid more attention to printing technology, and the next day he chose a secret place in Zhongdao and selected the most experienced craftsmen for Zheng Peng to call.

"Young Master" boarded the ship to Nakashima, and Ah Jun suddenly shouted.

Zheng Peng replied casually: "Well, something?" ”

Ah Jun looked left and right, and said with some uncertainty: "I don't know why, there is a feeling of being watched in the past two days, and the feeling of going out of the gate is even more obvious, and the young master has to be careful." ”

"I guess it's those little thieves, don't care about him, let's be careful."

Zheng Peng recently bought a slave house, and he also got a rich fortune in the Lanting Club, and he may be targeted, and he wants to fight the autumn wind or something on himself, this kind of person has a variety of titles, such as splashing skin, gangster, market, hooligan, etc., anyway, it's the same thing.

In Guixiang County, he and Guo Fu are so close, and anyone else dares to fight their own ideas?

Ah Jun answered, but he still looked around dutifully, for fear that someone would be unfavorable to his young master.

When Zheng Peng went ashore, Steward Guo was already waiting at the simple dock, and as soon as he saw Zheng Peng, he immediately led him to a separate courtyard.

As soon as he entered the door, Zheng Peng couldn't help but pause, not only Guo Ketang, but also the old man Guo of the Guo family and the head of the family Guo Hong, seeing Zheng Peng arrive, Guo Ketang said a little embarrassed: "Zheng Gongzi, uncle and Aya heard that they were going to engage in new printing, and they were very curious, so they had to come and see, presumably Zheng Gongzi wouldn't mind, right?" ”

People are coming, what can they say?

Printing is not as good as braised meat, the relevant principle Zheng Peng said to Guo Ketang on the spot, it is not an exaggeration to say that now people can get rid of themselves and do it alone, what else can't they do?

Braised meat is forced by the cooperation of the situation, this time the new printing, Zheng Peng deliberately threw out, is to test the credit of Guo Ketang and Guo Fu, if Guo Fu can withstand the temptation and act in good faith, then there will be more opportunities for cooperation in the future, if you can't withstand the temptation, the cooperation will end here.

Zheng Peng said with a smile: "Don't mind, there are many people who can brainstorm ideas, but they can't ask for it." ”

After speaking, he came to the door with a smile and saluted the two.

After the Lanting meeting, Guo Hong's attitude towards Zheng Peng improved greatly, and he said with a smile: "The virtuous nephew is really talented, and if this matter can be done, it will be a blessing for the scholars of the Tang Dynasty." ”

Old man Guo patted Zheng Peng's shoulder and said with a smile: "You kid, the milk stink hasn't dried yet, but after a while, an idea, a surprise, the old man really wants to knock your head open and see what is inside." ”

"Where is it, how can there be" Zheng Peng rubbed his shoulders without a trace and said: "Uncle Guo is joking, it's just that the younger generation doesn't have a proper shape on weekdays, and he likes to be imaginative."

This old man, did you use so much force to pat your shoulder, making your shoulders a little sore, Zheng Peng thought to himself: This old man must have done it on purpose, I don't know if he didn't let him see the little woman without clothes, or refused Guo Fu's proposal to get married, so he deliberately slapped himself hard.

is so old, his arm is still so powerful, by the way, Old Man Guo went to Guo's Academy to sweep the floor all day long, and he couldn't become the legendary sweeping monk, and it is estimated that his arm strength is still very considerable.

After the politeness, Zheng Peng, under the leadership of Guo Ketang, entered a large shed made of temporary wooden planks, in which several craftsmen were already waiting for him.

The craftsmen inside are all slaves of the Guo Mansion, and when they saw their masters coming, they had another etiquette and introduction, and in the end, the three members of the Guo family, including Guo Ketang, stood aside, and the whole audience was handed over to Zheng Peng to deal with.

According to Zheng Peng's requirements, the craftsmen include blacksmiths, carpenters, masons and carvers, and the leader is called Hu San, who is proficient in carved boards and masonry, and also dabbles in carpentry, and is a versatile craftsman.

Hu was about forty years old, and he was in the golden age of a craftsman, and after listening to Zheng Peng's idea of movable type printing, his eyes couldn't help but light up, and he saluted Zheng Peng, and said with a respectful face: "Gongzi Dacai, this idea is really too exquisite." ”

"Lao Hu, in your opinion, can this method work?" Zheng Peng asked.

"Feasible" Lao Hu nodded very seriously, and said excitedly: "Zheng Gongzi, it is completely feasible, the small ones can be made now, as long as you find the most suitable plan, you can print it on a large scale." ”

Zheng Peng's method, not only can greatly save the cost of engraving, but also conducive to storage, before a page of a printing plate, carved a wrong point to re-carve, carving almost to re-carve, labor and materials are very high, a page to a printing plate, if a longer book, just the printing plate is amazing, in addition, storage is also a problem, some larger printing plants, need to invest a lot of manpower and material resources to protect the printing plate, in addition to the need for place to store, but also pay attention to fireproof, moisture-proof, anti-cracking, insect and so on.

However, Zheng Peng's method can solve this problem perfectly, if you are proficient, a few printing plates can be printed on a large scale, while printing and arranging, simple and fast, easy to store, as long as you engrave some more words, even the carver can do without.

Zheng Peng nodded, patted Lao Hu's shoulder and said: "Okay, you start to do it, explore slowly, you must find a set of cost-saving, practical and efficient methods, what materials you want, just mention it, and when the time comes, you will be rewarded." ”

"Gongzi Xie." Lao Hu said excitedly.

Zheng Peng explained the principle thoroughly, it is not difficult, it is to find the most suitable plan, for Lao Hu, this is a simple and very rewarding thing, and it is naturally full of energy.

A few craftsmen were busy, and Zheng Peng was also willing to let them ponder slowly, and beckoned Guo Ketang and others to go out, lest they were there, and Lao Hu and they couldn't let go of their work.

After the group went out, someone immediately locked it with a big lock, as if they were not at ease, there were three different people who each locked a lock, and outside the shed, there was a slave guarding every few steps, one by one with wide eyes, there was a kind of frame that did not allow mice.

"This, as for guarding it so strictly?" Zheng Peng said with some surprise.

There are people guarding the outside of Nakashima, and the island is also heavily guarded, and the new printing is still being tested, and a cordon has been added, which is too exaggerated.

Guo Hong said with a smile: "This printing technique is amazing, look at it strictly, and be careful to make the 10,000-year-old ship." ”

"That's it, I don't need your people to guard it, what's the hurry?" Guo Ketang echoed on the side.

Okay, as long as you are happy, Zheng Peng immediately said that he had no opinion.

Old man Guo looked at Zheng Peng and said with a serious face: "Zheng Xiaolangjun, this new printing is very important, you have to keep it secret, and you must not say it until it is successful, understand?" ”

"Yes, what Uncle Guo said is extremely true, and the younger generation must be tight-lipped."

It is rare to see Old Man Guo so serious, and Zheng Peng didn't dare to joke when he saw it, so he solemnly agreed.

The four of them talked for a while, and soon dispersed.

In the next few days, Zheng Peng went to Zhongdao when he had time, mainly to see the progress of new printing, to give a few pointers from time to time, and to take care of the development of new varieties in the braised meat processing workshop.

Zheng Peng has a full life, but Ah Jun, who is a full-time guard, has been a little abnormal recently, not only has an extra horizontal knife on his body, but every time Zheng Peng goes out, Ah Jun has to call two more Jian slaves to follow to protect Zheng Peng.

It was calm for a few days, Zheng Peng felt that Ah Jun might be nervous and asked him to relax, but Ah Jun didn't listen every time.

It's up to him, Zheng Peng doesn't care.

It's good if you're happy.
