Chapter 179: Frustration


On this day, Qiao Junlin went out for an outing to enjoy the autumn with several classmates.

On the way, he met the uncle of a classmate and some of his uncle's friends, so the two people got together to drink and write poems by the river.

When the mood was high, one of Qiao Junlin's classmates said that Qiao Junlin was the best at sword dancing and asked him to dance a song to cheer up everyone.

On the other side, the nobles who were older than them were also quite interested, and some asked their servants to bring up the piano, saying that they wanted to do it.

Play the piano.

In such an atmosphere, it would be very disappointing if Qiao Junlin shied away.

Especially the one who said he wanted to play the piano would definitely feel that Qiao Junlin didn't give him face.

So he didn't say anything, raised his sword and started dancing.

As the moves changed, the faces and expressions of those present were all before his eyes.

Some were appreciative, some were disapproving, some were scornful, and some were gloating.

If the same behavior is applied to some nobles, it will be a willful and graceful behavior, but if it is applied to him, it will be flattery and no character.

But in the situation just now, between offending someone and being looked down upon, he made a decision after weighing it briefly.

It doesn't matter if he is despised.

In this environment where origin is important in everything, every breath he takes will be despised.

Could he still stop breathing in order not to be despised?

He will not stop doing anything because of the contempt of these people.

On the contrary, there are many things he wants to do.

"It's a good dance," finished the song, and people present clapped their hands and applauded.

"Funny."

Qiao Junlin slightly put away the coldness in his eyes, smiled and said to everyone present.

"Come on, come on, I need to pay homage to Qiao Dalang."

"Why do you want to respect him for nothing?"

"" After the music ended, the riverbank became lively again, with everyone talking and drinking, having a good time.

At this time, Qiao Junlin had also put away the coldness and grooming in his eyes, and talked to everyone present with a smile on his face.

His speech and behavior were quite graceful.

When he encountered some slightly contemptuous treatment, there was nothing wrong with his face.

Sadness and joy, it seems that he doesn’t really care.

There are also some rumors in the Four Schools that Qiao Junlin is a deep-minded and narrow-minded person.

Even if you offend him in person, he will not let you see it.

He will only look for opportunities to mess with you behind your back.

In fact, Qiao Junlin was just enduring.

As for whether he would mess with them behind their backs, if he saw an opportunity, he would naturally have to do it.

If he spent time and energy to mess with them, forget it.

To say that Qiao Junlin is narrow-minded is not entirely false.

This kid has a very good memory.

If you offend him, you don't have to expect him to forget it on his own.

Just like the classmate who suddenly asked him to come out to dance with swords today, wasn't it because he wasn't as good as Qiao Junlin in arithmetic when he was in Xipo Village?

Dr.

Chen praised Qiao Junlin more than he praised him, wasn't it because he wanted to get in touch with that classmate?

Coffin Ban'er established a friendship, but the other party didn't give him face.

At this time, he actually acted like this, and he was actually worse than a woman.

Maybe it's hard to tell if he really learned from the woman.

I heard that in Chang'an City, many people's back houses are not peaceful.

Qiao Junlin picked up the wine cup and covered up the smile on his lips.

And here in Lishi County.

In fact, not only Luo Yong, but Zhao Chen was also a little worried as to whether the grasshopper was a spy sent by the thieves.

So he temporarily changed his mind.

Most of the subordinates he brought with him went to Ningshuo County this time, leaving only two, plus himself, to continue buying pears in Pingyi County.

After this batch of canned pears was sent out, the other cans were not moved for a while.

They were all left in Lishi County, waiting for the Zhao family from Liangzhou City to come and carry them.

He would ask his subordinates to carry them out.

When delivering the goods in Ningshuo County, I took this message back to the people in Liangzhou.

The porters were soon in place.

There were teams of twenty people, and each team had ten vehicles.

Because the cans transported this time were all packed in porcelain bottles, they used two-wheeled vehicles this time.

In this day and age, two-wheeled vehicles and unicycles are more common.

Unicycles are light, but they cannot transport too many heavy goods, and there is often a risk of overturning.

Two-wheeled vehicles are bulkier and harder to push, but they can hold more.

Most of the goods are pulled by animals, but some are pushed by human hands.

This group of people headed west from Lishi County in a mighty manner.

Luo Yong was still a little worried and asked Zhao Chen if they would be targeted by gangsters.

Zhao Chen waved his hand and said: "How can you not have to deal with bad guys when you are out and about?

As long as these porters are fine and my men are escorting them all the way, such a large team will not be transporting gold, silver, money or silk.

Why do those bad guys risk their lives?"

Luo Yong thought it was indeed the case.

How could those who make a living by robbing houses have such good channels to sell these canned pears at a good price?

Even if they had such channels, they would not dare to easily can these stolen goods.

If you put it out for sale, once the matter is exposed, I'm afraid even the heel will be pulled up.

After the first batch of cans are sent away, the subsequent processing and production will not be as tense as at the beginning.

Seeing that the operation of the canning workshop was on track, there was no need to keep an eye on it, so Luo Yong went back to his Xipo Village, and Zhao Chen and the others, in addition to purchasing pears in Pingyi County, they also planned to Check out other surrounding areas.

In Xipo Village, what greeted Luo Yong's return were the mournful faces of Siniang and Wulang.

The reason is that various engraving-printed pamphlets have recently appeared in Lishi County, such as The Analects of Confucius and The Book of Songs, and there are more than one or two versions.

Luo Yong had already anticipated such a thing.

Since it was profitable, it was only a matter of time before a competitor appeared.

However, Si Niang and Wu Lang couldn't accept it and spent all day worrying about the pile of brochures in the shop over there.

Because they had sold well before, they had never worried about sales, so they increased the number of publications.

Very big.

The consequence of this was that they took a lot of money from Luo Yong, bought a lot of paper, ink and dye, and printed many pamphlets.

At this time, let alone making money, they didn't even know how to get their capital back.

The siblings were scratching their heads, unable to think of a good way to sell books, so they finally came to ask Luo Yong.

Unexpectedly, Luo Yong failed to give them one or two useful suggestions and told them to either slow down or wait.

Sell ​​slowly or sell at a reduced price.

There is no way around it.

Si Niang and Wu Lang were reluctant to sell at a lower price.

After hesitating for several days, they finally decided to lower the price slightly and sell slowly.

"How much does this book cost?"

On this day, a group of businessmen from other places came to Xipo Village to purchase goods.

After buying some goods at the sheep shed, they came to the entrance of the village to have a look and ate at the Xu Family Guest House.

After lunch, we went to the bookstore next door for a while.

"A brochure costs eleven cents."

Siniang looked at this group of people expectantly.

These people looked like big merchants.

Will they buy their own brochures?

Will they buy many at once?

"Gentlemen, please drink some water."

Wulang enthusiastically brought out several bowls of water from the back room.

He really wanted to make this deal.

"I heard that the brochures from Fenzhou, which are similar to yours, only cost eight cents."

Someone in the group of merchants said that business people like them came out to buy things.

Compared with the three companies, they are the most basic.

"Then they don't use the same kind of paper as us."

Siniang replied smoothly.

She has heard a lot of such words in the past two days, and she has roughly sorted out an idea on how to deal with them.

"It doesn't matter what paper you use, as long as the handwriting can be seen clearly."

The other party said with a smile.

"If you want something cheap, you just need to use a kind of linen paper that is slightly better than ordinary linen paper.

Cut it and print it into a book.

You can buy a copy for only five cents.

You can order it."

Siniang He asked them seriously.

"Hahaha, we don't want to buy those low-quality brochures, we just suspect that your brochures are slightly more expensive than others."

One of the people present laughed.

"It's more expensive, but it's not worth it."

Luo Siniang replied.

Although these merchants did not deal in this kind of pamphlets, they saw that the fourth lady of the Luo family was able to look after the store by herself at a young age like an adult.

She also spoke in a clear and logical manner, which was a bit novel.

Admire.

So everyone took out some copper coins from their bodies and bought twenty or thirty pamphlets from this shop.

After all, this is a brochure made by the Luo family themselves, and it is somewhat different from the brochures outside.

It would be good to buy a few and give them to my family, and then tell them about the Luo family's deeds in Xipo Village.

Si Niang and Wu Lang were very happy to make this deal.

They told Luo Yong about it during dinner that day, and their joy was beyond words.

After Luo Yong heard this, he just laughed and said nothing more except being happy for them.

In fact, Luo Yong had already realized that as early as when Siniang and others were publishing such pamphlets in large quantities, in the following days, there would definitely be many people following the trend of woodblock printing.

The more people they did, the higher the price would be.

If it declines, sales will also become a problem.

The reason why I didn't remind them was to let the two children feel the taste of frustration, and at the same time let them know that in addition to success, there is also the possibility of failure in this world.

In addition to making money, there is also the possibility of losing money in business.

However, this matter cannot be explained to these two children face to face.

"You two have been a little angry recently, so I stewed some pear water with you.

Eat it while it's hot."

“Wow there’s pear water” "Brother is so kind."

At this time, Siniang Wulang really felt that all the people in the world combined were not as good as his brother.

They took so much money to buy paper, ink and dye, and he printed so many brochures but could not sell them.

Don’t worry, I even ate pear water with him.

Luo Yong smiled and touched the heads of these two little boys.

Eat, eat, and continue to go out to face setbacks after eating. gd1806102:
