Chapter 348

"Husband, how can you do this! She is our sister!"

Zhen Mi's nose was crooked.

He didn't see the joy of Yuan Tan's return at all, but was horrified instead.

Cai Yanfang's heart is like a cat, is it true that she is luring wolves into the house?

No, it's obviously cat stealing.

Fu Shou was shy, red and white, not knowing how to deal with it, so he ran behind Cai Yan and hid.

Cai Yan made a fuss again and hid behind her.

It was like that when I was a kid.

Cai Yan: |`O'|

Yuan Tan, you stinky and shameless, why are you still the same as when you were a child playing eagle and catching chickens!

At that time, there were quite a few girls in the palm of the bead who were not married on the street of Guihua, so they all had to come here again!

With a thick skin, Yuan Tan said sternly, "Why are you looking at me like this? I really misunderstood. Am I, Yuan Tan, a sneaky person?"

Isn't this sneaking around?

All the girls want to smoke.

It really is: I don't send out Baihua's hair, but if I do, I will be scared to death.

If you want to fight with the goddess, you should wear golden armor all over your body.

Shaoqing.

Yuan Tan started grilling skewers, and his movements were skillful, not losing to the barbecue stall owner.

Zhen Mi came over, "Husband, I heard from Cai's sister that your first love just got married recently..."

Secretly thought: Do you still want to snatch your first love from her current husband?

"Really, I still have my first love? I forgot about it." Yuan Tan scratched his head.

Seeing this innocent appearance, Zhen Mi was blown away with rage.

Those who are married forget it, and those who are not married are all sweets? |'O'|

At this time, Cai Yan was telling stories to the maids,

"You don't know, back then, although your eldest son was from the best family background, he was as stupid as a pig, and he was the worst kid on the street..."

Yuan Tan: (⊙﹏⊙)

As expected, she was the first assistant of her childhood sweetheart, and she knew all kinds of embarrassing things.

The maids looked at each other.

I didn't expect the eldest son to have such a history of blood and tears.

However, now the eldest son has become the most beautiful boy in the world.

Yuan Tan: O(∩_∩)O

...

This afternoon.

Jizhou Biejia Mansion.

Don't drive is equivalent to the first deputy of Jizhou executive.

As Bie Jia, Xu You lived a very leisurely life.

Came back from a meeting with Yuan Shao.

Of course, he could also see that Yuan Shang was fighting for the heir with Yuan Tan.

In his opinion, Yuan Tan Wentao's martial arts strategies are much stronger than Yuan Shang's.

But Yuan Shang was loved by Yuan Shao.

It's hard to say who will inherit the foundation in the future.

He didn't stand in line.

With his qualifications, he doesn't need to stand in line.

The three sons of the Yuan family were the ones he had grown up with since he was a child, and when he saw them in private, he would call him Uncle Ziyuan.

As Yuan Shao's friend and childhood friend, Xu You has a very special position in Yuan's family.

"Master, Jizhou Pottery Merchant, Dong Guoyi, Xiang Yun, and Gong Di are asking to see you."

As soon as Xu You entered the mansion, the attendant brought the news.

As Jizhou Biejia, he is in charge of Jizhou's government affairs, and business roads are also included.

These three people are the largest pottery merchants in Jizhou.

Pottery is pots, bowls, pots, bottles, all kinds of containers, and painted pottery is a must-have for decoration.

It seems inconspicuous, but it is an indispensable thing for all families, from the public to the common people.

In this era of relative technology monopoly, it is one of the most profitable industries.

Shaoqing.

Xu You sat high in the hall.

The three of Dong Guoyi stood in the hall.

Xu You did not grant a seat.

Although the three of them are rich, they are not nobles.

The three naturally judged the situation and did not take it seriously.

Dong Guoyi said: "Master Xu, the prime minister is so powerful in the world, and the eldest son is a hero in the world, that's why Liu Yu surrendered without a fight."

"Hehe, the news is quite well-informed. What does this have to do with you? You people, you smell too much, and you don't go to the Three Treasures Hall for nothing. If you have something to say, I am very busy with business." Xu You said disdainfully.

Dong Guoyi was embarrassed, and hurriedly said: "Ji Kiln has already declined, so we thought that the kilns in Jizhou would unite to form Ji Kiln and replace Ji Kiln in the world."

In this case, they will be even richer.

Xiang Yun said: "We plan to spread the word to the world and hold a painted pottery festival, inviting celebrities and nobles from all walks of life to participate."

Gong Di said: "It will be even better if there is the seal of Jizhou Prefecture on the call to action."

Xu You immediately understood that these people wanted to raise the flag of the Yuan family to increase their background and momentum.

Gong Di said: "Jizhou's commercial roads are prosperous because of this, and the tax revenue will increase a lot. Mr. Xu is in charge of Jizhou's government affairs. You are with the prime minister, and you have honor on your face, don't you?"

Xu You picked up the tea bowl and drank it without saying a word, but his expression became sad.

Dong Guoyi immediately said: "Your Excellency, there is something bothering you, why don't you tell us and see if we can help?"

Xu Youdun felt that these people were very upright, "It's not convenient to say."

"What's the harm in talking about it?"

Then Xu You said with a face of shame: "My wife likes painted pottery the most, and spends five thousand guan on buying painted pottery every year."

Dong Guoyi immediately said: "What you said is not to slap us in the face. Mrs. Zun likes pottery and still spend money? If you need it in the future, just come and get it."

Xu You was noncommittal, "It's really not a big deal. I have a younger brother who has a good relationship with me. Recently, he got into the bad habit of gambling and owes 10,000 Guan."

"We paid the money." The three said in unison.

Xu You waved his hands again and again, "How can I make you spend money? I'll think of another way. But, you don't know that the prime minister will expand the army recently, apportioning Jizhou's military expenditure of 100,000 guan, and there is still a shortfall of 20,000 guan."

Gong Di said: "Your Excellency, you don't need to worry about this matter, the military expenses will be paid by our Jizhou Pottery Chamber of Commerce."

Xu You was dissatisfied and said, "How much do you pay for the military expenses? My son, who is young and does nothing, learned from others in business, and lost 30,000 guan."

"We're out."

"I..." Xu You thought about it.

Dong Guoyi said: "My lord, think about it carefully, is there anything else?"

Crack, Xu You jumped up against the crime.

All three were shocked.

Xu You said indifferently: "Since the three of you are so righteous, how can I, Xu You, be ruthless? How about this, a total of 50,000 guan, I will handle things for you."

"Your Excellency is wise." The three saluted.

After a while.

The three of Dong Guoyi left Biejia Mansion.

In the carriage.

Gong Di was the first to scold Xu You for being shameless, "What, Jizhou's lack of military funds is because Xu You is corrupt and asked us to pay for it?"

"Insatiable."

"Hey, two dear friends, you can't say that. It is because of Mr. Xu that our business can be carried out." Dong Guoyi laughed.

"This is 50,000 guan, not a small amount." Xiang Yun frowned.

Dong Guoyi said: "Of course, we can't let the three of us take it. With the great seal of Jizhou sealed by Mr. Xu, whoever wants to join our Jiyao Chamber of Commerce has to pay. If you don't join our Chamber of Commerce, don't do it in the future." The pottery business."

If it works, the three of them are the pinnacle of the industry.

Take control of a business and make money every day.

"In the future, we will rely even more on Master Xu."

The three looked at each other and smiled.

...

Jizhou is stable.

Yedu is prosperous.

Almost all leading figures from all walks of life have industries in this new capital city, and they are still the main industries.

This is also one of the important reasons for the prosperity of Yedu.

As an economic, cultural, political, and military center, Yedu must be indispensable in any aspect.

Surrounding Yedu, a city with a population of one million, all walks of life, from large chambers of commerce to small workshops, have raised tens of thousands of practitioners from all walks of life.

night.

Dong Guoyi's mansion.

He summoned all the masters of the kilns in Jizhou.

With everyone present.

Dong Guoyi said confidently: "Jiyao is gone. My people in Jiyao have heard that Yan Shan and the others are missing."

"Why don't we set up the Ji Kiln Chamber of Commerce to replace Ji Kiln's status in the world?"

"Here is the document from Mr. Xu You, Jizhou Biejia, so you don't have to worry about the government."

"The purpose of the Chamber of Commerce is not to merge, but to unite. Advance and retreat together, make rules together, and make money together."

After hearing these remarks, the people in the various kilns were quite moved and began to discuss.

Suddenly someone said: "I heard that a kind of porcelain has been discovered, and the disappearance of Yan Shan and the others may be related to this."

These were people in the pottery industry, and of course got the news before anyone else.

Dong Guoyi said: "I have heard it too. I think that porcelain is very magical, but it is not a category. It should be a kind of kiln transformation. If not, it is impossible for that person to carry only one piece..."

"So it can't be mass-produced, so you don't have to worry about it."

Speaking of it, the appearance of porcelain is like a mountain pressing on the hearts of all potters.

But what Dong Guoyi said made sense.

All the people who come to the kilns are proficient in this way.

It is also considered to be an artifact obtained by accident.

Gong Di stood up at this time and said: "We should seize this opportunity to produce a batch of high-quality products and open up the reputation of our Ji kiln."

Xiang Yun also said: "Now that His Majesty has moved the capital, Liu Yu has surrendered, and the Northland is peaceful, it is time to make money."

Ever since, the Ji Kiln Chamber of Commerce was crowdfunded, and everyone united to make money, which was approved.

However, additional funds are needed to manage the official staff.

There are more than a dozen kilns in various counties here, and they contribute capital according to the scale and work together, which is not too much.

For a better future, everyone does not have any opinions.

So it was settled.
