Live as the emperor

Chapter 103 The way to get rich

"Obviously, your ideals moved me." Chen Guang said.

If what Wu Zhu said is true, then Chen Guang really admires this young man. He can actually do such a thing in order to allow the common people in the country to wear cheap clothes. Brilliant, but his starting point is good.

This also triggered Chen Guang's thinking, since Wu Zhu can have such a high awareness, why can't he himself?He thought about it carefully, and then realized that it really couldn't.

Now this spinning machine is not only related to Chen Guang alone, but also the work of so many people, and so many Fuxiangji franchisees. Everyone relies on this confidential multi-spindle spinning machine. The spinning machine is making money. It can be said that once the spinning machine is leaked, all the current layouts will be disrupted.

But someone may say, even if the manufacturing of the multi-spindle spinning machine is leaked, you may reduce the price of the produced fabric.It seems to be the ideal of Kuretake. Doesn't he just want to bring the multi-spindle spinning machine back to their country to reduce costs and produce very cheap yarn through this labor-saving method?

Chen Guang, who has studied economics, tells you that this is simply impossible. Do you still remember when Fu Xiang Ji first opened, but it was met with collective boycott and protest by other fabric merchants? Why?It is because Fuxiangji's products are cheap and cost-effective. When the time comes, everyone will go to buy Fuxiangji's products. How will their business be done?This touches their interests, so Fuxiangji doesn't have to do business.In the end, even Chen Guang had to compromise, announcing that Fuxiangji's products were [-]% higher than the average price of the same type in the market, which stabilized the cloth merchants.

Even with Chen Guang's status, he still has to estimate the opinions of those businessmen. This Wu Zhu is a passionate young man. Can his idea be realized?It is estimated that before the cloth is produced, merchants who have got the news will come knocking on their door.

Based on these factors, if Wu Zhu brought the multi-spindle spinning machine back to Guangdong, not only would he not be able to realize his ideal, but he might even be killed.

Chen Guang continued: "Although your ideal is so great, I can tell you clearly that your ideal cannot be realized. I don't want to tell you too much about the reason, because it will waste my time. Drool, in short, you have to remember that letting things take their own course is the right way to go. Since the clothes you have there are very expensive and no one can afford them, then you can increase their income so that they can afford them."

Hearing that Chen Guang rejected him, Wu Zhu was very disappointed. He is a person of this era, so he naturally has the limitations of this era. There is no way to compare with Chen Guang. A single head may not be able to figure it out.

"Since you said so, forget it." Wu Zhu said.

Chen Guang patted him on the shoulder and said, "Young man, it's not that I won't help you. It's just that there are too many things you don't understand, and you can't understand them even if I tell you. Originally, your theft is my fault. You should be sent to the government, but since your starting point is good, I won’t take you to see the government."

Wu Zhu was not an ignorant person, Chen Guang promised not to take him to see the official, it was already very kind, he said sincerely: "Thank you."

Chen Guang smiled and said, "You are in Guangdong, so your status is not low."

Wu Zhu was slightly taken aback, not knowing what Chen Guang meant.He is the young lord of Guangdong, which is equivalent to the status of the prince of Qian. The reason why he didn't reveal his identity just now was because he was afraid of Chen Guang's plans. If he was directly kidnapped and taken as a hostage, it would be no fun.

"How did you find out?" Wu Zhu was noncommittal.

Chen Guang said: "First of all, you are very courageous, at least bigger than him." Chen Guang pointed to Chang Yan next to him, Wu Zhu was much calmer than Chang Yan.

"And then?" Wu Zhu asked again.

"Then you said that you want to get the spinning machine in order to bring down the price of cloth in your country. This means that you are not a businessman. It is said in "Historical Records? Come on, all the hustle and bustle in the world is for profit. You don’t pursue profit, so you are not a businessman, and you can’t be a businessman. Of course, you can’t be a farmer, and farmers can’t afford gold to buy spinning machines. So, you either An official, a good official for the people, or a relative of the emperor. I prefer the latter."

What he said was analyzed very thoroughly, as if Di Renjie was trying to solve the case, peeling off the cocoon and getting closer to the truth layer by layer.

In fact, at the beginning, Chen Guang thought that this guy was the emperor of Guangdong, but later he thought that a person who could become an emperor would not be so stupid.

"You are very smart. Your Highness Prince Jin." Wu Zhu said.

Chen Guangdao: "Have you heard all this?"

Wu Zhu said: "Where we are, your name is as famous as the multi-spindle spinning machine."

Well, Chen Guang is quite helpless about this metaphor.

"What about you, what kind of king are you?" Chen Guang asked.

Obviously, according to the current mechanism of being an official, it is basically impossible for him to be an official at this age, so the only thing left is the identity of the royal family.

Wu Zhu said: "I am the prince."

Although he admits that he is the prince, he may be held hostage, but it doesn't matter, after all, Chen Guang has already guessed his identity, and it is not bad for him. If Chen Guang has that kind of thought, It's useless to say more.

"Prince, no wonder. Haha, if you really love the people as you say, you might be a good emperor." Chen Guang said.

Wu Zhu looked up at the sky on the courtyard wall and said, "Maybe, I don't know either."

Chen Guang said: "Okay, don't think about my spinning machine. If you really want the people of your country to live well, I can show you a way to get rich. Let's cooperate."

"How to cooperate?" Wu Zhu's eyes lit up.

Chen Guangdao: "How about you plant tea trees for me and sell me the tea leaves?"

When it comes to tea, everyone will definitely think of black tea from Mount Wuyi in Fujian, but the history of tea production in Guangdong is synchronized with that of Fujian, and Guangdong is one of the three major oolong tea producing areas.During the Song Dynasty, Tuancha became famous all over the world.

"Fujian Tongzhi" records that at the end of Tang Dynasty, Jian'an Zhang Tinghui hired workers to cultivate tea in Fenghuang Mountain. At first, it was a paste tea. In the second year of Song Taizong's Taiping Xingguo, Longfeng tea was produced. After Song Zhenzong, he transformed Xiaotuan tea and became famous all over the world. Long Tuan Feng Cake.Cai Xiang, who was a transit official in Fujian at that time and supervised the production of tribute tea, especially praised Beiyuan tea. In his "Tea Record" written in [-] AD, he said that "the taste of tea is mainly sweet and slippery, but the Phoenix Mountain in Beiyuan The products produced by the continuous bakery are delicious."
