Genius remembers in a second [Aishang Novel Network biquge.info] to provide you with wonderful novels to read.

Yang Rui returned to the room, sat on the chair and recalled the afternoon speech, thinking that he almost fell and made a fool of himself, he couldn't help but curse in a low voice, but fortunately he calmed down later, and there was no more moth, and he took the previous manuscript, revised it and put it in an envelope, and handed it to Lao Deng below tomorrow morning, so that he could help send it out - Lao Deng has now become his exclusive postman, and all the letters are brought in and out by him. Later, I simply thought that I would write out the electronic file of this book, so that it was just an article, and if the foreigners in the concession were not used to finding fault with the article, it would be good to have a credential.

Yang Rui found this book on the hard drive - these were all taken when reading and read as extracurricular books, but now they have a place to use. This 140,000-word book was omitted by him a lot of things that should not appear in this era, some notes were also deleted, with the help of the students, the book was written five days later, and the letter was quickly replied to when it was sent to the Commercial Press, and the manuscript printing house gladly accepted it, although the royalty was only 1,000 yuan plus a share of the number of words, which was a very good price.

The reason why the library offered such a price is because the serialization of the speeches of the Su Bao in the past had a great impact, and many people, including many people in modern times, thought that the rise of the West was due to its system, culture and even race, and even thought that it was caused by the two industrial revolutions brought about by the steam engine and the internal combustion engine, but in fact this was not the case. What Yang Rui has to do is to expose the skin of foreign civilization in front of the Chinese people who have been frightened by the guns and cannons and worship freedom and democracy, so that the Chinese people can see the essence of the rise of the West, their so-called civilization is completely built on slaughter and plunder, and today their civilization is completely built on the bones of countless infidels. The sales of the Su newspaper have increased rapidly in the past few days, and those who have not bought the newspaper to read it are looking around for the rest of the article, and the English newspapers and the newspapers of Tianjin have also reprinted this article entitled Gold and Silver in the Americas and the Rise of the Western World. Of course, the English newspaper was only an abridgement, and in the face of Yang Rui's detailed numbers, they did not have the courage to come out and confront him.

Yang Rui is stuffed in his own small circle every day, I don't understand that the name of the pavilion is already famous all over the country, he is still the same as before, in addition to the class is to copy books, and there is to go to the 6 lines every few days to see the progress of the project, the 6 lines of the title deed has been changed by Yu Huizu, after all, Yang Rui is not braided and inconvenient to rent the world, he had to walk around the construction site, Cheng Guangshun's uncle and the master work very hard, these ten days, the factory has a basic prototype, An unplanned well was also drilled for use. Every time he saw that the construction site was becoming more and more decent, Yang Rui was very happy, and he thought that the journey of wealth would start here.

At this time, the freighter carrying the equipment has passed through Hong Kong, and it is expected to arrive in Shanghai next Friday, and the patents of Britain, the United States, France and Germany applied for earlier have also been taken down, and the patent has been sent to Shanghai. Yu Zixun in Japan has already passed, and will arrive in Tokyo at the end of the month, and then take a few locally recruited Japanese to Osaka to participate in the expo, and the publicity plan will also be fully rolled out after the expo is launched. The Chinese side is still preparing, next week the responsible persons of Shanghai, Tianjin, Hankou, Guangzhou, and Niuzhuang and a few newly recruited factory managers and account offices will go to the instrument hall for training for three days, and after three days, they will take up their posts, and the layout of newspapers in various places has also been negotiated in advance, and it is the first time that newspapers have done this kind of business.

It doesn't matter if you give money or not, the key is to let everyone know about MSG, and you must push this name out to cause the greatest impact, MSG's press releases are all written by Zhang Taiyan, originally he was still unwilling, saying that his pen does not write such business articles, Yang Rui had no choice but to use cigarettes to increase the price, one by one, and when he added to five, his resistance collapsed, so with a wave, the legend of MSG was written with wonderful twists and turns, touching tears, really worthy of being a master.

February 22nd is another Sunday, Yang Rui and a group of students are copying books and proofreadings in the courtyard, Mr. Xie from the printing house came, when Mrs. Huang shouted and went downstairs to see him, Yang Rui was still very surprised, because everyone just contacted the letter to talk about the matter, is there any big deal when he came this time, after the ceremony, Mr. Xie quickly explained his intention, it turned out that he was entrusted by the Japanese book company Jingangtang to talk to Yang Rui about the copyright purchase of a few books.

Hearing Mr. Xie say that what hall in Japan wants to buy the copyright of his own book, it really feels strange, he wrote a few textbooks how Japanese little potato knows, and he also found himself. It's not strange to find yourself Yang Rui, as long as you find a publishing house, you can find yourself, but how can Japan know about Chinese books? Yang Rui didn't know that the Commercial Press had a cooperative relationship with Japan's Golden Port Hall for a long time, and the two sides would also jointly operate the Commercial Press this year, which was also the main printer of Japanese textbooks, and the joint venture with the Commercial Press was only driven by interests. The Japanese learned about the business textbook from the Commercial Press, and immediately became interested, so they asked the business to buy the copyright, Yang Rui was only willing to sell the Chinese paper copyright at that time, so there was no way, the Japanese had to entrust the Commercial Press as a representative to negotiate.

Yang Rui has no interest in how to fight with the Japanese in the novel, if he doesn't buy the copyright, then they must be pirated, and the piracy of future generations cannot be eradicated, not to mention now, just look at how Japan bids, and asked Mr. Xie: "These little things still need Mr. Xie to come over to talk, wouldn't it be good to send someone to send a letter." Of course, I don't have a problem with the need to buy copyrights on the Japanese side, but in business, I just don't know what conditions Japan offers. ”

Mr. Xie also felt that he seemed to be a little anxious, smiled and said: "Haha, I haven't visited Jingcheng Mansion for more than half a year, and I also want to come and see it, as for this copyright matter, the Japanese side is still very anxious, they want to use this set of books as a university textbook when the school starts this fall, and they also hope to invite Jingcheng to give lectures in Japan, I don't know what to do." ”

Yang Rui had a sudden break in his heart, thinking that I Chinese have not yet been taught, how can I teach you Japanese, even if I eat porridge every day, I don't want to go to that ghost place in Japan. Hey, there are few universities in China, and good things come out, and there are only 1,000 people studying in China, but there are 100,000 people studying in Japan. What to do, it's not okay not to give, it's already written, and the history of Western philosophy is about to be finished, and the two books of international trade and finance are not many words, and they can be completed quickly, and the contract has been signed, hey, I was busy working for half a day and the Japanese were cheaper, it was really ...... Fortunately, marketing, finance, workshop, logistics, and quality have not been written, so they are still stored and used confidentially!

Mr. Xie saw that Yang Rui was obviously distracted, and it was not easy to disturb, so he had to take a sip of tea and wait slowly. Yang Rui came back to his senses and said leisurely: "Mr. Xie, I feel tired now after only four classes a week, and I am even more unaccustomed to Japan when I go to Japan, so I don't want to go." ”

Mr. Xie saw that Yang Rui seemed to have something on his mind, and immediately prepared to make a decisive decision and said: "It is actually done, the condition of the Japanese side is to hope that the conditions of the second batch of books that our library talked to you about last time are the same, do you think this is good." ”

Yang Rui thought for a while and asked, "Mr. Xie, how many universities are there in Japan?" ”

Mr. Xie didn't understand what Yang Rui meant by asking, he didn't know how many universities there were in Japan.

Yang Rui also knew that he didn't know, so he said to himself: "I actually don't know, according to speculation, the number of universities and business majors in Japan should be dozens of times or even more than in China, and now only Nanyang College has a business class in China." In the face of such a market, I basically did not bargain with your museum, but Japan is different from China, the business is more prosperous, there are more schools, and the books will naturally sell better, so the royalties are also different. Mr. Xie, can you pass on my words and see what the other party will say? ”

Mr. Xie also understood what Yang Rui meant, after all, when negotiating with the manuscript, Yang Rui basically didn't ask for anything, he was very good at talking, comparing the situation in China and Japan, if it was transferred to the Japanese on such terms, it would indeed be a bit of a loss, and he didn't say anything, and left immediately.

The more Yang Rui thought about it after he left, the more angry he became, he was busy in vain, and he was all cheaper than the Japanese and grandma's. Later, I went to Cai Yuanpei and told him that he had changed his mind to go to Nanyang College to attend classes, and let the school arrange classes. Teach as many students as you can.

That night, Cai Yuanpei received a message from Yang Rui, and couldn't help but sigh, didn't he go to life and death last time, why did he change his temper now, he just rejected Zhang Yuanji with a red face the day before yesterday, and now he wants to find someone else, but this is a good thing after all, after all, he is knowledgeable in the West, and if he goes to Nanyang, it is very delicious for the school and students, so he went to Zhang Yuanji's house that night.

On Monday, Yang Rui is training employees in the instrument hall, and these newly recruited young people are familiar with the business in addition to the bookkeepers, and the rest of them must understand the business process, what they want to do, how to do it, etc., which must be taught in advance. But after all, it is a novice, it is particularly difficult to teach, the current social division of labor is not detailed, many concepts and they are very difficult to explain, these guys are still selected, the three accounting rooms are recruited from outside, all of them are used in the factory, the eight representatives stationed abroad are found in the physical and chemical workshop, or Yu Huizu They brought over relatives and friends after the year, are more clever and reliable, Yang Rui in several other places does not care, the expatriate to Niuzhuang is particularly important, it is a nephew of Yu Huizu who goes to Niuzhuang, In his thirties, he was teaching at home, but because the imperial court is now advocating new learning, no one in the school will have a job if no one reads it, and Yu Huizu here knows that he is no longer teaching, and he needs people here, so he brought him over.

Yang Rui knew that according to the time, Japan and Russia would start a war in the Northeast next year, and the war would last for more than a year, and the people who went there should be more capable and sophisticated, this scholar Yang Rui usually saw that he was cautious and subtle, pretending to be a big intellectual, and he was a little incomprehensible, so he wanted to try what this person was like, if he could go, it would be the best, if he couldn't go, then hurry up and change him to another place.

After the morning training, Yang Rui talked to the teacher of this school: "Mr. Yu, if you go to the Northeast, you will not be used to it." Yang Rui asked lightly.

Mr. Shushu knew Yang Rui's status in the factory, and even treated him respectfully, and replied: "Master Yang, there is no way to do business and run around, I heard that it is a little colder over there, but I also live in the city, so I am not used to it." ”

"Yes, Mr. is a family, hey, I'm worried that the situation is not good." Yang Rui began to probe.

"The situation is not good?" Mr. Shujuku doesn't know why.

"Sir, you don't know, it's Lao Maozi who occupies this place over there, and he has been refusing to withdraw from the army, and I heard that there is lawlessness over there, I'm worried that Mr. will not be safe to go there." Yang Rui continued to increase his weight to see this person's boldness.

"Ahh There are Russians. Yes, yes. Xu was taken aback when he remembered something, "Master Yang, how is this good?" ”

Seeing that he was so unfrightened, Yang Rui sighed in his heart and said: "It's okay, it's okay, if Mr. has a family, it's better to go to Hubei, where is the governor Lord Zhang governing very well, and there is also a concession, Mr. lives in the concession, there will be no danger." You go back and talk to Hanzhang. Ignoring him, he walked away.

The next day, Mr. Xie found someone to send a letter, saying that he had negotiated with the Japanese side, and told Yang Rui what he said that day, and the Japanese side also took into account that the situation Yang Rui said was the truth, and was willing to increase the edition fee of each book to 5,000 yen, and the rest was consistent with the original conditions of the printing house, Yang Rui read the letter but didn't know how to do it, no matter how much he added money, he also had to have a score, if it was too outrageous, the other party would definitely pirate - in fact, he was frightened by the scale of piracy in later generations, and after thinking about it, he asked the other party to increase the share of the book from one to two percent, The rest of the conditions remain the same, and if you agree, you can sign a contract.
