Royal road

After returning to the palace, Liang Feng sent someone to send a thousand sheets of Buddhist scriptures to Guo's residence.Originally, after such an advertisement, no matter how quickly those wealthy families responded, they would have to wait two days before they reservedly came to inquire.However, Liu Xuan's actions shortened this reaction time a lot.

That afternoon, fifty stones of millet were delivered to the door, along with five tall horses for pulling the cart.It was nothing more than rice and grain, and these few high-quality horses were worth at least [-] yuan, which obviously represented Liu Xuan's intention of showing favor.Liang Feng added a box of flower paper, fifty sheets of paper in each color, on top of the thousand sheets of scripture paper, as a gift in return.This not only completes the etiquette, but also promotes the reputation of the paper.

With the generosity of the Xiongnu royal family, the rest of the high schools are well-informed, so how could they not know that Tibetan scripture paper can be exchanged for grain.Fifty shi of grain, according to the market price in Jinyang, is only about [-] yuan, which is not worth mentioning for a high-ranking family who often earns thousands of shi every year.And Liang Feng's reputation reached its peak after the Fa Conference due to the promotion of various aspects.It is definitely a good deal to exchange this small price for the scripture paper made by the legendary "Buddha's son"!

The next day, several families came to ask for paper, and the remaining [-] sheets were quickly sold.As for those who didn't get any paper, Liang Feng promised that as long as the paper shop produced new paper, it would be shipped to Jinyang.And the three Gaomen who bought the scriptures also generously left the carts and livestock for transporting grain, and went back in exchange for scriptures.

After coming and going, just after the Fa conference, the paper Liang Feng brought was sold out, in exchange for a full 3000 shi of grain.This is nothing to Gao Men, but it means a lot to Liang Feng.With this batch of grain, the refugees he took in could survive the difficult days before the autumn harvest.More importantly, this business is not a one-shot deal. The paper mill can produce five or six thousand sheets of paper every month. If it makes a profit of three hundred shi per month, it will be more than [-] shi in a year!Is there anything more profitable than this?

Jiang Ni is also convinced now, kneeling respectfully in front of Liang Feng, and reporting: "There are four other families who have reserved scripture papers for next month. This is just a place in Jinyang. When this matter spreads, it should be returned There are quite a few high-ranking families who want to ask for paper. If the paper workshop doubles in size, I’m afraid there will be even more money coming in!”

Liang Feng shook his head slightly: "It's worthless if there are too many, just control the production and maintain the current scale."

In this manual era, it is unrealistic to instantly expand production, and Liang Feng understands the thoughts of these officials better than anyone else.Rare things are treasures, and bad streets become stinky shit.Can a luxury product be called a luxury product if it does not have a limit?

Jiang Ni nodded quickly, hesitated for a moment, and asked again: "What about the porcelain? Some people also secretly asked me if there is any extra white porcelain in Liang's residence."

Jiang Ni is now in charge of these copper-stink businesses. The news of the Fa conference has spread, and of course a high-ranking steward has asked him about Baici in private.Jiang Ni knew exactly how much profit he got from selling the paper this time, which was several times more than the hard work earned by the pottery workshop.Wouldn't it be bad if Zhifang was crushed by Taofang?The precious white porcelain that my father worked so hard to develop must be bought at a good price!

"White porcelain is not in a hurry, it can only be sold when it is a good product. Then it can be exchanged for silk or fur for the winter." This Liang Feng has already planned.

You must know that the quality of the products in today's pottery workshops is not stable, just like the lotus vase, six pieces were fired in one kiln, and only one succeeded in the end.The rest are either uneven glaze color or damaged shape, which may not be a problem in the eyes of ordinary people, but it is a flaw that cannot be ignored for target customers.Which wealthy family would spend money on inferior products?What they care about is not whether it is cheap or not!

Therefore, Liang Feng did not plan to sell the defective products at a lower price, but ordered them to be smashed and buried.This is also the reason why ancient porcelain is expensive.Behind any high-quality porcelain, there are broken porcelain all over the floor.If those defective products are allowed to flow out, it will only have an impact on the brand and affect its value.

In the future, the white porcelain produced by the Liang Mansion should also follow this high-end route.Only a small amount of high-quality products will be released in exchange for rare strategic materials on the market.Those masters with great eyesight can often get things that money can't buy.And Baici was the only one in the Liang family, and in their hearts, it was probably worth much more than silk cotton.

And with cold-proof materials, when the temperature drops sharply in winter, it will be a loss of life.If there is a war, soldiers wearing winter clothes must have higher combat effectiveness than those wearing single clothes.Liang Feng was very clear about this point.

After the report was over, Jiang Ni withdrew, while Liang Feng leaned on the proof table with one hand on his forehead.In the past two days, the food has been earned, and it is more abundant than expected, but there is still a lot of anxiety in his heart.Liang Mansion's geographical environment is really good. In order to avoid the war in Luoyang, the previous generations went to Bingzhou and chose this place to recuperate.Although the traffic is not prosperous, it is safe enough.In addition, the main house is a standard Wubao structure, as long as there is a team of strong soldiers, it is enough to protect the whole family from the intrusion of the rioters.

Now under his rectification, farmland has been opened up around the Liang Mansion, which can be used as a pretty good barrier.When the farming is slack, fortifications will be erected, walls and buildings will be erected, and several levels of early warning posts will be established.As long as there is an invasion by foreign enemies, the people can be quickly evacuated to the Grange and Fort Wu to resist.Several times the strength of the troops may not be able to eat this tough bone.

But is that enough?If all the land around him is occupied by the Huns, what is the use of guarding an isolated island?If you want to keep this foundation, you must at least ensure that the nearby large area is not occupied by the enemy.But what is Shangdang County? "Looking down at Zhongzhou, with elbows and arms east of the river and Bingzhou, it is called the throat of the state of Jin."The entire Shangdang is a transportation hub connecting Shanxi, Hebei, and Henan provinces. If you want to jump out of the Three Jins and cross the Taihang Mountains, you must pass through Shangdang!

Therefore, this is the place where military strategists have fought for since ancient times.Far away is the battle of Changping between Qin and Zhao, and near the battle of Huguan when Cao Cao conquered Gaogan.As long as you want to open up the channel between the three provinces and unify the northern border, you can't get around Shangdang!This is simply at the forefront of the war, how can we save ourselves and even the dependents around us?

At present, Liang Feng still can't find the answer.His power is too weak to resist such a situation.

This recognition also made Liang Feng feel a sense of urgency in his heart. He was not the kind of person who would just catch him in the face of danger.There must be some way to let him guard this small world.

"Lord!"

A voice interrupted his thoughts, Liang Feng raised his head, only to realize that Yiyan was standing beside him at some point.Against the light, his face was somewhat blurred, only those gray-blue eyes gleamed, full of worry and unspeakable anxiety.Is it because I think about the problem for too long and scare him?

Before Liang Feng could adjust his expression, Yi Yan knelt down on one knee and stood straight at his feet: "Master, are you worried about food and grass? I can transport them all back to Liang Mansion!"

Liang Feng froze for a moment, of course he wasn't thinking about this, but he couldn't explain it in detail at the moment.Does he want to tell the people around him that the world is about to fall into chaos, the country will be torn apart, and the Liang Mansion is likely to be affected by the flames of war and wiped out in ashes?It is obviously impossible, not to mention that this prophecy is too shocking, even if you know it, what can the children around you do?It's just to add to worry.

So, Liang Feng smiled: "Yes, two hundred shi of grain is not a small amount, at least twenty cars are needed? It takes at least five days to return to Liang's mansion from Jinyang. If you encounter bandits, you will be killed." .”

This is also an immediate problem.After finally earning food, it will be fatal if it cannot be transported back to the home.

Yi Yan clenched his fists: "My lord, don't worry! A few days ago, Sentinel found out the movements of the bandits along the way. From Jinyang to Tongda, the market is bustling, and there are few bandits. As long as the food is transported to Tongda, and then Send troops from the government to support them along the way, no matter how many bandits there are, the subordinates will be able to pay them all with one effort!"

Looking at the solemn young man in front of him, Liang Feng couldn't help feeling warm, and patiently told him: "After several months of practice, it's time to sharpen the edge. This journey is left to you. Food and grass are second, the most important thing is Deter the forces along the way and open up this business route. After that, all kinds of materials must pass through Jinyang, so we must be fully prepared."

Yiyan's heart was agitated, the lord really still trusted him, how to transport food, he already had a plan in his heart, and he was confident that he would not be defeated by those young people.However, when he answered yes, the person at the table didn't show any joy, but just smiled and asked him to rest early to prepare for tomorrow.

This is by no means what the protagonist should have done in the past.

Yi Yan clenched his teeth.Ever since he came to Jinyang, he felt that the person in front of him had changed. He no longer smiled lazily, played the piano carelessly, read history books and military books to him every night, and taught him calligraphy.The figure who would wear wooden shoes to climb high and look into the distance, like a fairy, disappeared.

The lord has changed, his gentle expression has completely cooled down, and he maintains a reserved and noble demeanor anytime and anywhere.Even in the face of a terrifying scene where everyone is mad, they will not frown.There was no longer a sincere smile in his eyes, but a polite manner that made it impossible to guess.It's like the gods and Buddhas have finally returned to their altars, and they are no longer allowed to get close.

These changes made Yiyan go crazy.Perhaps this is the original face of the lord, just like the military affairs he is familiar with, the ruthless means to rectify the Liang family.I was just blinded by the closeness, just like a bird no matter how close it is to the bright moon in the sky, it can't touch the bright and clear moon!

Yiyan lowered his eyes and landed on the seat in front of him.In the mansion, the lord does not wear full clothing, and as the weather gets hotter, he prefers to walk around the courtyard with bare feet on wooden clogs.However, those slender and white ankles are now covered by plain gauze, just like the meticulous placket and the high bun.

All this upset him!

Maybe it will be better to leave Jinyang.Yi Yan got up slowly, and walked outside.Maybe after leaving Jinyang and no longer being called "Buddha son" by those people, the lord will return to his original appearance.He wants to transport the food back to the mansion as soon as possible, and then come back to meet the lord, and go back to the mansion together!
