Fermenting?
The servants naturally didn't understand.
However, since it was Jiang Yue's order, they would definitely listen.
After all, they were all servants carefully selected by Jiang Yue. Firstly, their character was passable, and secondly, their identity contracts were all in Jiang Yue's hands.
Most importantly, Jiang Yue was very good to them. They were extremely grateful from the bottom of their hearts.
Therefore, they were naturally loyal.
The next morning, a large group of people with money in their hands squeezed at the entrance of the paper shop, waiting to open the door to buy paper.
However, he was told that it would only open again in a few days.
Hearing the news, everyone could not help but feel very disappointed.
"What? Come back in a few days? Are you guys kidding me?"
"Yesterday, I saw my friend showing off to me. I waited here early in the morning just to buy a few!”
"I didn't buy a few yesterday and couldn't bear to use them. At least give me a few today, right?”
"One is fine too. I haven't used it yet! I heard that it's very useful!"
"Everyone, everyone, I'm really sorry.”
The shop assistant was happy but also regretful. She could only say," Our master said that we won't be opening for business today. In a few days, we will definitely have a large amount of food!”
"Oh? Really?"
"Enough? Don't lie to us!"
"Naturally, I won't deceive you! Please rest assured!"
"Ah, alright then…"
When everyone heard this, their faces were filled with pity and they left unwillingly.
As for Jiang Yue, she brought her people around Xianyang.
Of course, he was not here to tour the mountains and view the scenery, but to find enough raw materials for paper production and build a new paper mill.
Julu was too far away from here. It was not convenient to rely on the paper from there to transport it over to sell.
Therefore, it was more practical to build a paper mill nearby.
After choosing a place, Jiang Yue directly spent a lot of money to buy this piece of land and ordered people to build a new factory.
When the shop opened again, the new factory would be able to supply them. He was not afraid that the stock in his hands would be sold out.
Xianyang City, Marquis Wucheng Manor.
"This paper is indeed useful."
Wang Jian held a brush and wrote four words on the white paper: God bless Great Qin!
The handwriting was vigorous and powerful, clearly of a high standard.
Wang Jian was not a person who only knew how to fight. His literary and martial arts strategies were proficient in everything!
Ancient civil officials and generals
"As long as Father likes it."
Standing beside Wang Jian, Wang Ben said with a smile.
"I like it, but how can I write it to my heart's content?”
"Father, please don't blame me…"
" I was with His Majesty yesterday," Wang Ben said." I didn't dare to leave to buy the paper. By the time I sent someone over, the shop was already closed." These were given to me by His Majesty when he received a bunch of gifts from Jiang Yue in Julu. If father likes it, I can get someone to buy it again.”
"Don't go. I've already sent someone to go. When I come back, I'll tell them that it's closed.”
"Closed?"
" Why?" Wang Ben asked. Yesterday, the sales were very hot…Could it be that they were all sold out?”
"It's not Changjiu's plan to sell them all in one day.”
Wang Jian said," Look at that Jiang Yue. Does she look like a short-sighted person?”
"Of course not…"
" His Majesty has always praised him for his talent," Wang Ben said. And…"
Wang Ben thought for a moment and said," Jiang Yue told me that she came to Xianyang not only to make money, but also to make friends with the rich and powerful. Why would she stop her own business?"”
"Make friends with powerful people? Of course not. It's sold out on the first day and ruined people's mood on the second day…"
Wang Jian stroked his beard and narrowed his eyes slightly." Unless, it's to create momentum."”
"Creating momentum?"
" What do you mean, Father?" Wang Ben asked.”
"You said that his goal is not only to make money, but also to make friends with the rich and powerful.”
Wang Jian smiled and shook his head." I think he doesn't want all his papers to fall into the hands of some cynical scholars.”
"Father, what is the meaning of this?"
Wang Ben was confused." If that's the case, why don't we just say that we don't sell them, but only the nobles?”
"Hey, you!"
Wang Jian smiled and said," Those Confucian scholars usually only have two hobbies. First, he liked to dance and write, and second, he liked to judge people. That Jiang Yue had offended them on the first day she came. If they slandered her, it would be a piece of cake.”
"So, this mister is very smart. He first let these Confucians taste the benefits, but then stopped. He wanted to use these Confucians to let the entire Xianyang know that this paper was useful but not easy to buy. It was easy to use but not easy to buy. Wasn't this the difference between the rich and powerful? Say, how could those high-ranking officials and nobles not be tempted? When his shop opened, it would be even more crowded, and there would definitely be dignitaries!”
"Yes, what father said makes sense.”
Wang Ben nodded in agreement." This gentleman is indeed wise!”
"However, this matter…"
As Wang Jian spoke, his tone changed." It depends on His Majesty's wishes. Don't be in a hurry to do anything.”
"Your Majesty's meaning?"
Wang Ben was stunned." Father, His Majesty values that gentleman very much. Why would he object to him selling paper?"”
"Selling paper is ultimately a means of doing business. His Majesty will treat it as an interest and naturally will not take it to heart.”
Wang Jian said with a deep gaze," Father is talking about how His Majesty would view him if he befriended the powerful.”
"This…"
" What do you mean?" Wang Ben asked in surprise.”
"Hehe, His Majesty is a rare master with an infinite heart. He is naturally not the kind of person who is short-sighted. However, life was like this. No matter how strong a person was, there would be times when they were tired. No matter how beautiful a woman was, she would often be jealous of others. The Emperor was broad-minded, but he had to be wary of his subjects. If the officials were all fighting fervently and left the emperor to the side, what would His Majesty think?”
Wang Jian said," On this point, you must remember that you will do whatever His Majesty asks you to do!”
"That's true…"
Wang Ben nodded and said," You're right, Father! My son will remember it! I wanted to secretly eat hotpot again, but it seems that I shouldn't…"
"En…En? Hotpot?"
Wang Jian was stunned when he heard that." What is hotpot? Is it the Dongpo Pork you mentioned?"
