After rebirth, I went from a peasant girl to the richest man

"This doll is new and can be sold in various styles at first, but as time goes by, I'm afraid all kinds of imitations will appear on the market!"

Knowing that this doll can make money, people who see the doll's patterns will naturally learn to make it. Even if they don't try to be perfect, at least they can imitate one or two points, and they will always be able to reap the benefits of this wave.

"What you learn is just what you learn. It is always different from the original!"

Bai Qingyun had thought about this matter before. After all, he couldn't stop everyone from making money. Everyone living in this world had to learn to survive on their own.

There are thousands of ways to make a living. As long as it is the right way, why should you cut off other people's source of income?

It's just my family's business, so I have to make some money at the beginning.

"Mr. Zhu, please look!"

Bai Qingyun took the doll from Zhu Yao's hand. The little girl was sensible and knew that everyone was talking about serious matters and would not snatch her treasure away. In addition, Bai Qingyun's own affinity made the little girl not show any resistance.

The doll is black and white, and has the word "Bai" embroidered on the upper left side of its body, with a number in small characters next to it.

The numbers are numbered in Arabic numerals, which are different from uppercase numbers. Due to the limitations of current mathematical levels, Bai Qingyun's numbering system is unique and is much easier to embroider than uppercase numbers.

"Bai's is easy to understand, but what's next to it?"

People who have not learned Arabic numerals have a blank in their cognitive system and naturally do not recognize them.

Bai Qingyun is also more certain that his numbers can give his brand a unique character.

When others learn it, they will just be like a primary school student learning mathematics, with crooked and twisted writing, not very standard. Bai Qingyun uses the standard writing method.

"This is another way to count, which is simpler than the way we write now. The dolls made this time will have such numbers, and the dolls with the same numbers are a set!"

Zhu Yu would need to be introduced to everyone at that time, so Bai Qingyun briefly introduced this counting method.

Of course, since there are not many dolls and they only need to recognize numbers, it is not difficult to teach them.

Zhu Yu himself had been to school and had learned mathematics in class. However, the imperial examination did not place much weight on this aspect at the beginning, and only one or two questions would be tested in the examination for students of the Tongsheng School and the examination for the Yuan Academy. Such questions would not be too difficult, similar to the problem of chickens and rabbits in the same cage.

Of course, for those candidates who have not received modern mathematical thinking training, such questions are worthy of study.

The learning content of scholars is based on the scope of the imperial examination. The imperial examination will not test them, and studying will not spend too much time on this.

Zhu Yu had learned it, and he also had to manage his family's shop and look at the accounts and deal with numbers, so the learning process was relatively smooth.

"Miss Bai's method not only saves a lot of writing time, but also makes it easier to look up!"

Writing in uppercase letters requires more words and is indeed troublesome to write.

Especially when it comes to reconciling accounts at the end of the year, the accounting offices in various places have to work overtime and spend many days and nights to complete the work.

"How does Master Zhu plan to sell this doll to Bingzhou Prefecture?"

After determining the sales method and profit sharing, the most important thing left is sales channels.

Although the division of labor between the two was very clear, the Bai family supplied goods and the Zhu family sold them, Bai Qingyun was still curious about Zhu Yu's approach.

"My father will go to the government office to report on his work at the end of the year. Officials reporting on their work will stay in Bingzhou Prefecture for a few days. The wife of the Bingzhou prefect is a very busy person and she holds a plum blossom viewing banquet every year."

Bai Qingyun and Xie Shuer both understood the meaning of these words. Although it was a banquet, those occasions were always a time to maintain relationships among families and to visit each family's children.

The prefect of Bingzhou was equivalent to the top leader of Bingzhou. When the prefect's wife held a banquet, all the officials' wives in Bingzhou would come. Even their rivals in the officialdom would give her face and come to the banquet.

"Hasn't this year's plum blossom viewing banquet started yet?"

It’s almost the end of the year and every family is busy with their own affairs. Generally speaking, such banquets will end very early.

If this is the case, wouldn’t we have missed the best opportunity of the year?

Zhu Yu was obviously a little averse to such a topic. He looked around and made sure that there were only four people in the room.

Then he walked to the door of the box.

The Zhu family's servants and maids were waiting at the door of the box. Qujiang County was not far from Baiyang Town, but the journey was still unsafe. Zhu Yu was the son of the county magistrate after all, and he had more than one servant with him when he went out.

Zhu Yao is also accompanying them today. Young ladies from official families have had personal maids to serve them since birth. The maids not only take care of their daily lives, but also teach them the etiquette of life. They are inseparable.

The servants and maids waiting at the door have all been in the Zhu family since childhood, so it is necessary for such people to be loyal.

Zhu Yu said to the people at the door: "Watch the door, no one is allowed to approach!"

The innermost private rooms in Hongyun Building are all prepared for distinguished guests. The decoration of the rooms takes both comfort and confidentiality into consideration.

No passing customers will come to disturb them. Once the guests go in, no one else will come except the waiter who serves the food.

"Yes, Master."

The servant answered respectfully and then closed the door.

Zhu Yu's instructions must have been about something very important, and the servant did not dare to delay his master's business because of his own mistakes.

Then Zhu Yu sat back, drank a cup of tea, and then spoke seriously.

"I heard about it, too. This matter is of great importance. You'd better keep it to yourself to avoid unnecessary trouble!"

"Everyone knows that the current emperor has few children, and the second princess born to the imperial concubine is very popular with the emperor. But some time ago, when the second princess passed by Bingzhou Prefecture, she was chased by villains and disappeared for a long time."

When Zhu Yu talked about this topic, he did not elaborate on the story of the "Iron-eating Beast", but looked at Bai Qingyun and Xie Shuer's expressions in a mysterious manner.

Seeing that their expressions were still calm, I couldn't help but admire their composure.

Xie Shuer noticed Zhu Yu's gaze and gently touched Bai Qingyun with her hand under the table.

'Should we act surprised?'

Bai Qingyun received the signal.

"I understand!"

Then the pupils become dilated to show shock, but such micro-expressions cannot be maintained for too long, otherwise it will seem a bit fake.

Seeing the expected expression, Zhu Yu continued to talk about the matter.

I couldn't help but feel relieved: "Sure enough, even a quick-witted girl would still be shocked by such a big thing, so my reaction of falling off the table is not too embarrassing!"

When it comes to royal affairs, that is big gossip and also the most thrilling!
