Jia Amnesty is a good teacher. He saw that King Yong could frown and think about it from time to time while listening to him, and he spoke more vigorously.It diverged from the silver mirror reaction, talked about silver nitrate, and finally talked about the glass making process.

God knows, when King Yong arrived in Yangzhou in the afternoon, his lunch was just a meal on the boat.He was in a hurry to go out this time, and he didn't have any supplies in the towns on the way.Except for the ones brought out from Beijing along the way, we can only use local materials.

King Yongjun ate the fish for so long, and he felt a fishy smell after eating it.After finally arriving in Yangzhou, I thought that at least Jia She, as the magistrate of Yangzhou and his brother-in-law, must give him a good meal.

This treat was a treat, and he told him something he didn't know for a long time.Light sheep?Is this sheep still light?In other words, the roast lamb is quite delicious, and the steamed lamb is not bad.

King Yongjun glanced at Jia She, who was still eloquent, and couldn't help thinking, this man has been talking for almost an hour, isn't his throat uncomfortable?A workaholic indeed.

But isn't he just here to take care of the future work of the glass?He really doesn't need to know how the glass is made.

Prince Yong rubbed his hungry stomach, and decided to cut the mess quickly, and first control the workaholic Jia Enhou, "Enhou, these are not important, but I want to ask you about the future of this industry What do you plan to do?"

In order to show that he was really not hungry, but eager to know the future development, King Yongjun knocked on the glass on the window pretending to be calm.

Jia Amnesty thought to himself, this king of Yongjun is more and more like Emperor Yongzheng who died of overtime in the Qing Dynasty. Fortunately, he has long been prepared.

"Then invite the prince to go to the study for a detailed discussion." Feeling that he is a master of planning, Jia She happily invited King Yongjun to his study for a chat. His planning book and everything are kept in the study.

The king of Yongjun deeply felt that he had fallen into a pit, but as a prince, he always took the lead before his subordinates. The education that King Yongjun received from childhood made him unable to tell that he was already hungry. I will talk about this in detail tomorrow. Kind of words.

Jia Amnesty's study was not far from the guest room prepared for King Yong, so Jia She led King Yong to the study all the way.

These days, writing brushes are used for writing, and there is no such thing as a 0.35 needle tip fountain pen, which leads to the fact that not many words can be written on a piece of paper.

However, Jia Amnesty's planning book also incorporates some modern marketing knowledge, so Jia Amnesty's planning book has more than [-] words.

King Yongjun watched helplessly as Jia She took out a box full of papers, forcibly suppressed his thoughts of running away, took a deep breath, and told himself, "I am a prince, and there must be a royal family." decent."

"Look, my lord, this is what I think. We use the capital city as the place of production of glass, and set up sellers in each province. If we save money, we can set up sellers in each prefecture, and send people to deliver the glass to various places on time."

"In order to prevent sellers from driving up prices, we can set a national unified price for glass."

Jia Amnesty's EQ was so low that it was rare in the world. He didn't notice the prince next to him at all. The majestic Prince Yong was already clutching his stomach with hunger, and he just talked about his views on glass sales.

The profit from the glass will be divided into [-]% for him, so Jia Amnesty is naturally interested in the sale of the glass.

However, King Yong's belly didn't realize that he was a prince's belly, and honestly let out a hungry cry.

"Goo~"

***

Now that the person in charge of the glass industry has been selected and in place, what about the others?The king of Yongjun and Jia Amnesty both ate meat, so at least they had to give others soup to drink, right?

The few princes who stayed in the capital and were in charge of being envious and jealous, tried their best but couldn't figure out why their father gave such a large piece of meat to the fourth child for no reason.In the end, I only came up with a reason that was probably poverty alleviation.

After all, apart from the sixth prince who is still living in the palace, the fourth prince has the least influence among the adult princes.Also, think about who he arrested and impeached, who would be willing to take the risk of being rejected by his in-laws to seek refuge with Prince Yong.

But after all, it wasn't the boss (third, fifth) who had to take this job, the princes could also think about it.

Since I have no share in taking a bite of this fat, it must be their turn to drink the soup.When the princes arrived at this time, none of them had many businessmen under their command.

The news that King Yongjun and Jia Amnesty planned to set up distributors in various provincial capitals had already spread, and the disciples, whether it was for small money or for their own future, went to discuss ideas with their masters early.

"It is said that glass is a profitable business, and the small ones don't want to make a lot of money. Can the sellers in the province of xx allow Lord Yong to let the small ones go."

When the merchants made money, most of it would naturally go to the princes, and the princes were naturally concerned about this matter.

But to be honest, their friendship with this fourth child is really not good.When I was young, the fourth prince's biological mother had a low status, and the adoptive mother wanted to have a child by herself, so it was inevitable that the palace would favor the high and low.

When everyone gets married and has children, seals the king and leaves the palace to open the palace, the fourth prince suddenly becomes possessed by the censor, and he loves to impeach his courtiers the most.Which prince dares to have a good relationship with the fourth prince, I'm afraid it will chill the hearts of his subordinates who follow him.

It's really difficult to get a good position to get close to the fourth child temporarily.If it were me, I would always be a brother who dug a hole by myself to fight for meat under my hands, so I'm afraid I would disagree.

What's more, the king of Yongjun is still in Yangzhou, and you are almost beyond your reach.Otherwise, ordered his princess to engage in wife diplomacy?

While the princes were still thinking about how to fight for meat under the hands of King Yongjun, someone had already started to act.

The Wang family was originally in charge of receiving foreigners, so they also took a lot of things brought by foreigners, and exchanged a lot of money in private. Of course, they knew that this glass could make a lot of money.

Although there is a rule in this dynasty that officials cannot do business, not everyone in the Wang family can be an official.For example, the eldest brother of the Wang family and the eldest son of the Wang family, Wang Zisheng.

Wang Zisheng is a well-known dude in the capital. He is very proficient in eating, drinking, whoring and gambling, but he knows nothing about reading.You said that if you don't study well, you can still put them in the military camp for exercise?

Wang Zisheng and his younger brother Wang Ziteng took this route, and now he is also the boss.But Wang Zisheng has long been spoiled by his grandmother, how can he stand the time in the barracks, and now he can't do anything without writing.

Seeing that Wang Zisheng could not bear the responsibility of being the eldest son or even the future head of the family, and the second son was a good seedling, the foundation of the Wang family for so many years could not be ruined in his hands, so Wang Xin thought about handing over the Wang family to the prince Teng hands.

But the palms and backs of the hands are full of meat, so Wang Zisheng, who is obviously the eldest son, has to write what the second son deserves?What's more, apart from eating, drinking, whoring and gambling, Wang Zisheng doesn't have anything else to support his family, so he can't just let his son go on like this.

Coincidentally, there is such a thing as glass.

Wang Xin also took charge of the work of receiving foreigners for a while before the customs ban. In his mind, the business of glass is a business that is sure to make money.Even if Wang Zisheng doesn't know anything, isn't there a shopkeeper?

Wang Xin thought about going to Jia's family to win the salesman's seat in Jinling. Wang Xin was afraid that Wang Zisheng would be too dandy and provoke someone who shouldn't be provoked in the capital.

If Wang Zisheng is sent to Jinling, the Wang family, as Jinling's local snakes, can completely let Wang Zisheng walk sideways.With this guaranteed business in hand, Wang Zisheng also has the money to eat, drink, prostitute and gamble.

The Wang family had a full-length mirror that was originally obtained from a foreigner, and it was originally used as a family heirloom. The mirror only had four carved hollow walls embedded in the middle.

Seeing that Jia She could develop such a Western object as glass, Wang Xin thought that Jia She must be very fond of this kind of Western object, so he used it as a stepping stone.

After all, Wang Xin was in the same generation as Jia Daishan and couldn't bear to lose face, so he pleaded with a junior.What's more, Jia She is in Yangzhou again, this mirror is a pretentious object, and it takes a lot of energy to send it there. I'm afraid everyone will know that Wang Xin gave Jia She a gift.

No, didn't the eldest daughter marry into the Jia family and became Jia She's sister-in-law? Wang Xin asked his wife to send the mirror to Wang, and asked Wang to send it to Jia She in the name of the Jia family. .

Wang Xin counted everything, except the temperament of his daughter.

Mrs. Wang didn't have a good relationship with her eldest brother in the boudoir. It happened that when Mrs. Wang sent her over, she was seen by Mrs. Chen who came to visit.

Chen's relationship with Wang's is very good now, and they are all based on their love for a son together.Mrs. Chen always wanted to have a son who could support the family, but Mrs. Wang already had Jia Zhu.

But Jia Min, whose body and bones are tens of millions of times weaker than her, hugs twice a year, and the competitive Wang family can't admit defeat.

It just so happened that the neighbor next door also wanted to have a son, and the two of them wanted to go out to worship a Bodhisattva in the temple and they would be together.It happened that Mrs. Chen could complain about Jia Jing and Mrs. Zhu, Mrs. Wang could complain about Jia She and Gu Juezhi, and they even found friends who spoke bad things together.

Seeing the mirror, Mrs. Chen boasted a little bit sourly, "After all, after Taiwei Du ruled the princes of the county, look at this ornament, ordinary people can't have it."

The Wang family has always been proud of being born into a wealthy Wang family, and this has been exaggerated. Wouldn't it be embarrassing to give it away?What's more, if it is sent to someone who Chen can't reach, it can be said to be broken.But it was delivered to Jia Amnesty and Gu Juezhi, and they will come back sooner or later, so it's not like they've lost their way.

What's more, Mrs. Wang had a lot of disagreements with Gu Juezhi, and asking her to beg Gu Juzhi would simply put her face on the ground.

Then Wang's precious son Jia Zhu's love for the mirror became the last straw that overwhelmed Wang's desire to give the mirror away.

After all, she is a married girl, and it is not uncommon for her not to listen to her parents.

However, Mrs. Wang is such a person who doesn't play cards according to common sense. Not only did she secretly accept the gifts from her natal family, but she also showed them off.

In the early years of the Wang family, they were nothing but mud legs, and the ancestors also lived a hard life without eating the next meal.For this reason, after the Wang family made a fortune, they liked gold, silver and jewelry the most.

Moreover, because of the war, many poor people could not afford to eat. The ancestors of the Wang family sold their own daughters for a bag of unthreshed rice in exchange for food.

After getting rich, she couldn't find the daughter who was sold back then, so she could only empathize with other daughters in the family.I also heard that noble families have a rule of raising their daughters richly, so the Wang family really pampers their daughters very much.

What Wang likes to say most when chatting with the maids on weekdays is, what happened when I was in our Wang family, and what happened to our Wang family.

"Sweeping the cracks of our Wang's house will be enough for your Rongguo Mansion for a year." This sentence when Wang's quarreled with Jia Zheng was also spread among the maids and servants of Rongguo Mansion.

It's not envy, but a secret joke that Mrs. Wang has never seen the world.In today's world, what is the use of money, power is the last word.What's more, to be honest, the Rongguo Mansion is not much less silver than the Wang family.

Mrs. Wang didn't know, she thought that the whole mansion was praising their Wang family's wealth, and now they like to show off more and more.

After Mrs. Wang took this mirror, she praised it on many occasions. At this moment, there are not many people in four kings and eight kilometers who don't know that the second grandma in Rongguo Mansion also has a rare foreigner in her dowry.

The four kings and eight princes all know about it, so there is no reason for the Wang family not to know about it.Mrs. Wang would like to come to ask for an explanation, but she is a daughter after all. If her reputation is ruined, it will also ruin the reputation of the other daughters-in-law of the Wang family. Are the daughters of the Wang family still married?

What's more, the Wang family's current relationship is still connected by this in-law, so it can't be shameless.

However, Wang's heart can be regarded as hurting her parents, and by the way, she also offended her brother and sister-in-law.

***

During this period of time, the king of Yongjun was fed up with the knowledge of modern marketing methods by Jia She, and the king of Yongjun, who was better than blue, immediately thought of a way.

In Mozi's allusion that the king of Chu has a thin waist, the king of Yongjun also recited it since he was a child.He also has the condition that the time, place and people are harmonious, and the example of the world is his own father.

In modern times, no matter what is labeled as exclusive to the royal family, the price can be much more expensive.It was similar in ancient times, with a light yellow label, the price of silver can be higher than that of gold.

King Yongjun, who had learned the marketing knowledge spread by Jia Amnesty, decided to replace the glass windows in his father's imperial study first, and at the same time give some mirrors to his concubines.

After all, the major shareholder of this mirror is now, he doesn't do anything anymore, and it's always okay to take the big wives and the little wives as spokespersons.

Gu Yuzhi has always been a good man, what's more, the news of the glass developed by Jia She has spread throughout the Forty-Nine City.Therefore, when King Yongjun sent glass and mirrors to the royal family, Gu Yuzhi also felt that mirrors and glass should be sent to Rongning and Ningfu, Weiguofu and Linfu.

In Gu Yuzhi's opinion, this is not a rare item, so compared with what King Yongjun sent to the royal family, it was slightly reduced, and he sent it over.

After such a calculation, it was actually necessary to send a boatload of glass mirrors, and because these were still fragile and precious objects, it took a little more effort to transport them.

So it was transported like this, and on the way from Yangzhou to the capital, the glass delivery ship turned into a diorama.

When the mirror arrived at the pier, it had to be more cautious when it was moved from the ship to various mansions and palaces.

All of a sudden, the people moving things and this thing's arrival became lively on the pier.

Because of the orders of the king of Yongjun, the person in charge of transporting did not stop the people who watched along the way, and even explained what it was to the people who watched and the people sent by various mansions to inquire.

Even if the king of Yongjun wanted to show the first-line brotherhood in front of his own father, he would not forget his brothers, not to mention being able to cope with each other.

The princes who received the glass from King Yongjun Qianli fully felt the importance of courtesy and friendship of the fourth prince, and wished they could eat these things on the spot.

They originally thought that the fourth child just took over the glass business, even though it was indeed very profitable, but didn't they want the businessmen under their door to provide money continuously.

But who knew that the fourth child actually took over two hens that could lay golden eggs.What's even more embarrassing is that the mirrors given by King Yongjun were completely delivered to the hearts of all the female relatives, and no empress or concubine could put them on it immediately.

When the princes go home and see the mirror at their wives, they can think that the fourth son has got a lot of money for nothing, and goes to sleep with a concubine. This concubine is favored, and there is still a mirror in her room.

After finally going to the palace to complain to my mother, my mother enthusiastically introduced this very clear glass to her son again.

A mouthful of old blood was about to spurt out.

However, the one who wanted to vomit blood the most was undoubtedly Wang.She tried to offend her mother's family and didn't mention it, but she still ignored the mirror.

Mrs. Wang still thought that this was a rare foreign object after all, and she also thought that she would put it in her room for the past few days, and let the grandmas and ladies who came and went to see the wealth of their Wang family.

Put it away after a while, wait for Zhuge'er to grow up and put it in Zhuge'er's betrothal gift, and let Zhuge'er get a good face.

However, the glass and mirrors sent by Gu Yuzhi gave Wang a heavy blow.

Gu Yuzhi is also considerate. The mirrors she sent to the female relatives are all very large, and the screens are more than enough to make a partition.

Each of these mirrors has been signed, from the old Mrs. Xu to the villains like Yuanchun Jiazhu, but they are reduced one by one according to their seniority.

The embarrassing thing is that even the supposedly small mirror that Jia Zhu got was much bigger than the mirror that Wang showed off a few days ago and was said to be a family heirloom.

There was also Mrs. Chen who was very envious of this glass, and even said a few sour words, and came to Ms. Wang's place to take a photo.

Now Mrs. Chen is also saying to Yuan Chun in private, "You can't be as stingy as your government aunt next door. What is a mirror worth?"

Wang felt that her sister-in-law Gu Yuzhi was born to restrain her, so why did she send the mirror at this time.

Could it be that Gu Yuzhi's servants who stayed in Rongguo Mansion deliberately reported the letter?That's why the sister-in-law specially sent a mirror to hit her face at this time.

In the past few days, Mrs. Wang didn't dare to go out. She always felt that all the servants in the Rongguo Mansion were pointing and saying that she was a countryman who had never seen the world, and took such a thing as a treasure.

But her parents just offended her because of such a thing, even if she went back to ask for forgiveness now, her parents probably wouldn't forgive her right away.

Mrs. Wang thought of her own sister, Mrs. Xue, who married into the Xue family far away in Jinling.Mrs. Wang wanted to ask her personal maid to write a letter to complain to her sister, and by the way, say a few bad things about Gu Yuzhi behind her back.

But before Wang's letter was delivered, her sister's letter was delivered first.

It turned out that because of the seller's rules, Xue's family is in Jinling, and if they are self-reliant, they can be regarded as Jia She's relatives. After learning the news, they immediately came to the door.

Xue's family was originally an imperial merchant, and they were also capable of doing such a big glass business, so they wanted to ask Xue Wang to ask Gu Yuzhi for a favor, and take down the title of general seller on the Jiangnan side.

Now that Patriarch Xue is still there, there is nothing illegal about the Xue family's eighth household. The Xue family was originally within the area delineated by Jia Amnesty, so Gu Yuzhi readily agreed.

Gu Jue's words mean both inside and outside the words. If it weren't for the fact that your family is relatives of my second sibling, I wouldn't have agreed.

It's not that Wang Xue was moved, and she even wrote a letter to her sister Wang, to praise her sister's sister-in-law.

Wang was so angry that he smashed two sets of teacups to get over it.
