Three Kingdoms Swept the World II

Chapter 160 New Products of the Eastern Han Dynasty

In Qin Feng's last life, he had several big organizations under his command, some were in charge of making money, some were in charge of gathering information, some were in charge of inviting officials to "drink tea", and so on.

However, large organizations require extraordinarily large funds. Therefore, in this life, if you want to spread all the organizations, you need to spread the money-making organizations first.

This money-making organization is the "Huaxia Chamber of Commerce".Qin Feng planned to take advantage of the few years before the chaos in the Eastern Han Dynasty to develop the Huaxia Chamber of Commerce into a national chamber of commerce, and to open stores everywhere.While raking in money, other organizations can follow suit.

For example, intelligence guards can hide in the branches of the Huaxia Chamber of Commerce in various places.

Therefore, when he heard that Zhou Shan, who was in charge of the Chamber of Commerce, was coming, he paid special attention to it and immediately sent a message.

After a while, a radiant Zhou Shan entered Qin Feng's "office" and immediately said: "Master, Zhou Shan is back."

Qin Feng smiled and said, "Get up quickly." When he got up, he couldn't help asking immediately, "Zhou Shan, how is the preparation work for the Huaxia Chamber of Commerce?"

Zhou Shan hurriedly said: "Master, everything is ready, that is..."

Qin Feng was anxious and said, "What is it?"

Zhou Shan said: "It's just a few stores short." He immediately explained: "My subordinates want to open in the best location, but they are not willing to sell good stores."

Qin Feng breathed a sigh of relief, and said: "So that's what happened, it doesn't matter, it happened to be a big family with a storefront in the center of Luoyang North Market today, and I did it in the morning, and you will take someone to collect the storefront in the afternoon, and in the evening Just send the money to His Majesty!"

Zhou Shan was delighted when he heard the words, and said, "This is really great. Luoyang North Market is the largest market, and the stores in the center are all long-established, and they are hard to find."

After Xun Yu heard this, sweat dripped from his forehead.Although Qin Feng's move was a little bit of power for personal gain, but because Qin Feng was too impartial, even Xun Yu didn't care about this little flaw.

Qin Feng hurriedly said to Dian Wei: "Dian Wei, you go down immediately to prepare for the trial. Prepare the tiger head guillotine for me. I have the guillotine here. In the afternoon, you and Zhou Shan will go to collect the store."

"Okay~." Dian Wei cupped his fists, turned and walked out.

It is said that Dian Wei soon came to the lobby, and said to the yamen servant on duty: "Is it time to clean up the blood in the lobby yesterday? This morning, the Lord is still waiting for someone to kill."

The yamen servant hurriedly nodded and bowed his waist and said, "It's been washed and cleaned. The three guillotines of dragon, tiger and dog have been washed three times, and the tiles are shiny. I guarantee that the knife will go down without the skin. Just wait for Master Qin to open the guillotine!"

Only then was Dian Wei satisfied and left.After he left, the servants began to discuss, "It's exciting to work with Mr. Qin!"

"People look at us differently."

"In the future, I will work hard with Mr. Qin, and I will be able to kill people and be loved by the people. It's really enjoyable."

On the other hand, Qin Feng's office.

Xun Yu wiped the sweat from his forehead, and said with concern: "My lord, my lord is going to open a chamber of commerce. The selection of goods is very important. I wonder what kind of goods my lord is selling?"

Qin Feng was very happy to see that Xun Yu cared about him, and he said to himself that he didn't want to lead you out of the mountain in vain.He felt that he had to cooperate well with Xun Yu, and in the future he would fight for world supremacy, and Xun Yu would be in charge of showing him the situation behind.

Qin Feng said with a smile: "Zhou Shan, do you have any samples, show Master Xun to have a look."

Zhou Shan came here in complete condition, how could he not bring a sample to show the lord, even if the lord didn't say anything, he would show it later.Zhou Shan hurried out of Qin Feng's "office", and when he came back, his subordinates carried in four or five large wooden boxes.

Qin Feng got up and walked down the hall, and came to the front.Dian Wei, Xu Chu, and Xun Yu could not help but surround them.

Although Zhou Shan already knew what the items in the several big wooden boxes were, he couldn't help showing the excitement of presenting the treasure. He opened the first wooden box and said, "My lord, this is a bamboo box made according to your production method." Paper."

I saw that the wooden box was full, and there were several stacks of paper, which were clean and flawless.

Dian Wei and Xu Chu clicked their tongues in amazement, Xun Yu was extremely shocked, took out an A4-shaped paper, lifted it up for a closer look, and said in amazement: "Good paper, good paper, there is no impurity in it, and what is even more commendable is that it is so smooth. , without any uneven texture."

The paper of this era is of high quality, just like the rice paper of later generations.As we all know, there are very deep lines, and some even have impurities and small stains in them.The bamboo paper made by Qin Feng is as clean as the copy paper of later generations.

Xun Yu had never seen such fine paper before, he was very shocked, and said: "Good paper must have a good market."

Qin Feng was well-informed in later generations, so he also picked up one, looked at it, and said, "It's good enough, I can barely write."

When Xun Yu heard it, he was even more shocked than seeing the paper, and said, "My lord, Xun Yu is not boasting that he has seen all kinds of paper in the world. This is the best paper, and he just barely writes?"

Qin Feng just smiled, he didn't plan to say more to Xun Yu and the others, it would save him from not being able to do the current craftsmanship, instead he would be entangled all over.

Xun Yu hurriedly said: "My lord, how much is this piece of paper? I'll sell some to my subordinates first. I'm afraid my subordinates won't be able to get such good paper by then."

Qin Feng thought that you were knowledgeable and knew that it would be out of stock, so he said, "Since it's Wen Ruoyong, what's the deal, this box is yours."

Xun Yu was not hypocritical, and after thanking him, he asked again: "My lord, what is the price of your bamboo paper?"

Qin Feng stretched out five fingers.

"Fifty Wen?" Xun Yu pondered, "It's still a bit cheap."

Unexpectedly, Qin Feng grinned and said, "What fifty renminbi? Tentatively, five renminbi a piece."

"What, five five five...five cents!" Xun Yu was shocked again at that time, and said in a speechless voice: "The paper from other houses is not as good as the adults' bamboo paper, and they all sell for fifty cents a piece. The subordinates thought, what is the matter with the adults?" I also want to buy one hundred yuan, but I didn't expect it to be sold for only five yuan?"

Zhou Shan snorted and said, "Master, one hundred coins? You don't understand the way of business. Such a good paper will sell for at least five hundred coins. Do you know why?"

Xun Yu shook his head, and Zhou Shan said, "This is because it is the only one in the world that monopolizes sales."

"Do you know why my lord only sells it for five cents?" Zhou Shan said again.

Xun Yu shook his head again.

At this time, Zhou Shan became excited, dancing with his hands and feet, and said, "That's because my lord is for the Confucian scholars in the world to be able to use paper. My lord said that even if you don't make money, even if you lose money, you must promote it in the world." Bamboo paper. With this bamboo paper, words and articles can be recorded, and more people can have the opportunity to learn culture. This is why paper can also carry Tao.”

Xun Yu was really shocked, "Paper also contains Tao!" He trembled with excitement, and said: "Disciple Xun Yu represents the Confucian scholars all over the world, and thank the new sage, Mr. Qin Zi, for his contribution to the spread of Confucian culture."

Qin Feng was very embarrassed, and hurriedly helped Xun Yu up, saying: "What Zhou Shan said is exactly what Qin Feng thought in his heart. In the past, a book with thousands of words cost tens of catties of bamboo slips, and people from poor families couldn't afford it." Several sets of books are inconvenient to carry around. Now that we have paper, it’s different. For tens of thousands of words of classics, dozens of sheets are enough, which is a matter of a few hundred pennies, and can be carried with you. "

Qin Feng said with a sigh, "Actually, five cents is too expensive."

After Zhou Shan heard about it, he said in his heart that the lord was telling the truth. In fact, the cost of this paper is not a penny. Selling it for five pennies is already five times the huge profit.

Such huge profits came from the excellent natural environment of the Eastern Han Dynasty, and no one wanted to cut bamboo casually.As for labor, as long as the food is in charge, there are suffering people everywhere rushing to work.

When Xun Yu heard the words, he was completely intimidated by Qin Feng's selflessness and disregard of personal interests. "Others sell it for fifty renminbi, but adults only sell it for five renminbi. I'm afraid it's not enough. Why do you sell it like this? Isn't it to spread cultural knowledge and let more people read and write!"

He really made up his mind at this moment, and bowed again: "Disciple Xun Yu, hereby swear, I wish to follow Mr. Qin Zi to carry forward the Confucian culture, follow the lord to punish rape and eliminate evil, and protect the country and the people!"

Xun Yu called the lord, and the lord basically had two meanings in the Eastern Han Dynasty, one is the subject to the monarch, and the other is the servant to the master.Xun Yu was deeply impressed by Qin Feng's ambition and character, so he recognized the master.

In fact, the Eastern Han Dynasty is not in chaos yet, and people with status in the gentry like Xun Yu don't need to follow anyone at all.Xun Yu was deeply impressed by Qin Feng's ambition and character, so he recognized his master and vowed to follow him throughout his life and never leave him.

Qin Feng was overjoyed when he heard that, he didn't expect such a big harvest, he thought to himself, let alone five cents, it's worth a penny, anyway, he won't pay any money.He hurriedly supported Xun Yu, and said solemnly: "Qin Feng got Mr. Xun Yu's help, no less than Zhou got Jiang Shang, and Han got Zifang!"

Xun Yu bowed again and stood up.

Ever since, from this day on, Xun Yu felt Qin Feng's benevolence, followed him faithfully, and became one of Qin Feng's confidants in the future.

Afterwards, Qin Feng personally opened the second wooden box, and saw that the inside was full of white sugar, shining brightly.Qin Feng said: "This is white sugar. As the name suggests, white sugar is very refined and expensive."

Xun Yu was very surprised, "There is white sugar in the world!"

Qin Feng opened the third big wooden box, and saw the crystal clear glitter inside.Xun Yu settled his mind, and immediately asked, "Is this crystal?"

Qin Feng laughed, and Zhou Shan hurriedly acted as an explainer, saying, "What kind of crystal is this? It's rock candy."

"Bing Tang!" Xun Yu's slightly settled mind was boiling again.

Qin Feng opened the fourth big wooden box again, and saw many pots neatly placed inside, which were the kind of pottery pots used for liquor in later generations.He opened a jar, brought three teacups, poured out the amber liquid, and asked Xun Yu, Dian, Wei, Xu Chu and others to taste it in turn.

"It's delicious!" Xu Chu bulged his waist and drank it all in one gulp.

"It's so delicious!" Dian Wei wiped his beard, "Master, what kind of name is this?"

Xun Yu also looked forward to it.Qin Feng said excitedly: "This is called iced black tea!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Zhou Shan bowed, "My lord, please forgive me, my subordinate named me Qin Laoji. Look, my lord, they are all in red pots. How festive."

When Qin Feng heard that "the liver and gallbladder are torn", it turned out that he had told Zhou Shan the allusion of the red canned herbal tea to later generations. He didn't expect Zhou Shan to come up with Qin Laoji, but the name is quite auspicious.Anyway, Qin Feng came here through time travel, and he can do whatever he wants with the things of later generations, and no one tells him, so he doesn't care about it.

Afterwards, Qin Feng opened the last wooden box, and saw that it was densely packed with small things wrapped in paper, about the size of sugar cubes in later generations.He took one, opened the outer package, and said to Xun Yu and the others: "Everyone, do you know what this is?"

I saw a small white stick lying in Qin Feng's hand.

Even a well-informed man like Xun Yu could only shake his head.
