Chapter 54: Words and Words Follow Economic Warfare
"Article 2. Nanjing is the economic center of the south of the Yangtze River, a cultural center, and of course, an important town for the printing industry. But my hope is that from now on, Yanziji will be called the printing center of Nanjing! Hengxin, I will coordinate the past and issue a two-year interest-free loan of 50,000 taels to the three of you. Don't you lament that skilled workers are hard to find? It's easy to do, Nanjing has it! ”
"From now on, I ask you to carry out a series of means, including but not limited to price reduction, high salary, and mergers and acquisitions, to transfer the Nanjing printing industry to Yanzijili." Zhu Cihong's eyes were blazing, with a boundless aura.
This is the power that belongs to the superior to follow his word.
At this moment, Wang Yi, Xu Fang and Yang Fatzi all felt a spectacular excitement brewing in their hearts.
This time, it was His Royal Highness the Crown Prince who led them in an economic battle array!
……
Nanjing City.
"The price reduction is to make ordinary paper suitable for newspapers, that is, the No. 1 paper we are currently the main one, become the price that students can buy casually without distress. We have investigated, and according to the data sent by His Highness, the families of students in normal schools generally only have a little more than ten or twenty yuan a day. So I decided...... A booklet that sells for only ten cents. Eight large pieces of white paper, the same only sell for ten cents! Even if you make a small profit or even lose money, you have to complete the task given by Your Highness! Moreover, His Royal Highness said, we will be able to earn it back sooner or later" Yang Fatzi took his son into the Qinhuai River, the most prosperous city in Nanjing City.
Of course, they are not father and son working together. They went to the Gongyuan not far from the Qinhuai River. This is also the reason why the Qinhuai River became a place of wind and moon in the first place: close to the Gongyuan and close to the literati.
Of course, there are not only brothels but also shops with four treasures of the scholars.
Yang Wenbao, the son of Yang Fatzi, puffed up his chest at his father's signal. Put on a royal blue brocade robe and enter this famous place.
The little guy who ran the hall was brightened when he saw Yang Wenbao's dress, and stepped forward and said, "This son." Do you want to buy stationery supplies? Little Wang Er, you don't understand, or you can look at it and call the little one everywhere. ”
Yang Wenbao snorted. Didn't speak. This Yangmingxuan store is not small, and the people who run the hall are obviously sharp-eyed, and when they see the appearance of this boy, they no longer squeak, but just wait.
Soon, Yang Wenbao finished shopping around the outer storefront, raised his legs and walked to the inner room, and after a glance, he wondered: "Why are there so many counters selling paper?" Yo, the price of your rice paper has been reduced. ”
When Wang Er heard this, he sighed and said, "No, the paper in this world is a price a day." Sixteen blank sheets of paper used to sell for fifty wen...... It fell every day, and I heard that it was only ten cents. The old customers who have come forward are all complaining, and we are even harder to sell. Even now, the price of the proclamation cannot be kept. provoked the owner to sigh every day that he was going to move to Xuanwu Lake. ”
The vicinity of Xuanwu Lake is naturally the Nanjing Normal School founded by Zhu Cihong. I don't need to think about how good the business is when I open a shop with four treasures in the study.
When Yang Wenbao heard this, he took a closer look at the price of pen and ink and Yantai, and these three things have not changed much: "There are twenty taels of silver here, and they all have a decree for me." ”
"Okay!" Wang Er was overjoyed.
……
"The owner...... My mother-in-law is sick, you ...... Why don't you go back first? The child wants to read every day. The last time my mother-in-law went to the normal school in the rain to inquire about the kindergarten, I didn't think about it, I didn't think about it," Zhang Sanshu said in front ......of the owner with a hum, and the person who was originally loud was now speaking softly.
The owner's surname is Hu. His full name is Hu Xuan, and he runs a movable type printing shop that has been handed down for three generations. Because it is made of lead movable type, it is aimed at those who do not require paper. Just for the poor talent at a low price. These people have seen a lot, and Hu Xuan has also exercised the ability to observe words and feelings. How can you not see that there is something in Zhang Sanshu's words.
It's just that when I think of the recent rumors. Seeing that Zhang Sanshu was an expert in this printing shop after all, Hu Xuan held back all the words he had been thinking about, and squeezed out a smile and said, "Lao Zhang is right." This is the **** to read the baby, now it is convenient to read, His Royal Highness has opened a kindergarten, this is a good thing. Lao Zhang, don't worry, I Hu Xuan also know a few people in the kindergarten, so I'll ask you tomorrow. Ah, what do you think? ”
"Good, good!" Zhang Sanshu was overjoyed, nodded one after another, and hurriedly walked out of the shop.
Seeing that Zhang Sanshu was gone, Hu Xuan, who was worried, also walked out of the door, but after a few steps, he saw a personable old man saluting him with a smile: "But Hu Dongzhu? If it's okay, why don't you talk about it with a cup of tea? ”
……
Zhang Sanshu, who walked out of the printing shop, looked left and right, went around three streets, and then waved his hand on a big road and got into a four-wheeled carriage.
On the carriage, Wang Yi had a pleasant face and said: "Zhang Gong, a certain Wang Yi is the owner of Wang's printing workshop. These days, you must also know the greetings of Wang's friends. Not much to say, Wang can trust the recognition of my sixth-level senior master, you come in and I will give you a separate treatment according to the standard treatment of a fifth-level worker, your original salary is three taels of silver a month, right? I won't say much, as long as you come in, eight taels of silver a month, there will be a bonus every month, and at the end of the year, there will be a red envelope depending on the situation. How is it? Of course, if you get the assessment above level 5 in the craftsman compound, if you don't say it, it will rise again. ”
After Zhang Sanshu listened, he immediately snorted his mouth and kept saying: "This and this ......"
"Huh? I said Zhang Gong, this treatment is not bad. Oh, forgot to mention it. You're a kid, there's a problem, isn't it? I heard that your mother-in-law has a cold, alas, it's okay, I have all the medicines. The problem of children's reading is even more fine! The children of our Yanziji Workshop District are given priority to enroll, and there will be a preschool and junior primary school opening nearby, I Wang and Yang Yuanwai, Xu Yuanwai and other people in the workshop area have raised silver, and there will be vocational schools in the future, at least there is a level of first-class workers when they learn, it is really a blessing to His Royal Highness, the treatment of first-class workers plus your family's academic origin, the money for marrying a daughter-in-law will be saved in a year! ”
Zhang Sanshu was even more anxious, and his face turned red: "No...... No...... It's also too ...... Mrs......"
"I said Zhang Gong, ......" Wang Yi said with an impatient expression: "At present, the price of grain has risen so high, it is not good to go to the third and fourth days." It's a hard time to get this opportunity right now......"
"Really...... True...... It's not ......" Zhang Sanshu was so anxious that he was about to cry.
Finally, Yu Xingjian, who was on the side, couldn't help but explain.
[The genuine version is the starting point Chinese network. Pay attention to my WeChat public account: a few words of micro-words.
