"The so-called planning before acting is actually psychology. I called you here today to discuss this matter with you."
After Zhang Feng finished speaking, Wei Zheng, Yuchi Gong, and Cheng Yaojin asked in unison, "What is this psychological warfare you speak of?"
"That's not right."
Wei Zheng added, "It's psychology. Could this be a new subject in your academy?"
Zhang Feng rubbed his forehead and said, "It can be considered a new subject in my academy. However, let's not talk about this today. Let's talk about paper first. How much do you think this paper should be sold for? "
"A thousand! No matter what, it can't be lower than Xuan paper! "
"Old Man agrees too!"
"Old Man thinks that it's appropriate to sell this paper for a thousand strings of cash. However, do you think anyone will buy it?"
The few of them spoke one after another. Li Chengqian and the others nodded in contemplation, frowning occasionally.
Zhang Feng, on the other hand, was eating and drinking the entire time with a smile without saying a word. .
After a long time, Zhang Feng said, "Actually, I initially wanted to sell this paper for a thousand strings of string of cash. But after thinking about it, Li Gan, you also know the cost of this thing, so I felt that a hundred copper coins would be the most appropriate. But I also felt that if I really did that, it would definitely benefit other profiteers. So I divided the paper mill's shares into six portions, one for each family …"
"What about me?"
"Also, what about Old Wei?"
Yuchi Gong could not take it anymore and hurriedly stepped forward.
He was extremely jealous of the paper mill!
Not to mention the paper mill, just the salt mine alone was enough to make these old fogeys rich. That was only ten percent of the shares. Now, there was the paper mill as well. Heavens! It was already good enough that he could choke Zhang Feng and ask him for it.
When Zhang Feng heard this, he said, "Don't worry. Since we're all here, we're all brothers. We'll temporarily split the papermaking workshop like this. However, I'll leave the issue of selling to you. I only want 700 copper coins. As for how much you sell, I don't care!"
When Yuchi Gong heard this, his eyes, which were as big as copper bells, instantly narrowed into crescents.
Although he didn't get 10% of the profits, what the f * ck was this?
This was even more profitable than the dividends they had received. It was simply a huge profit!
Even if he sold it for a thousand copper coins per catty, he would still be able to earn three hundred copper coins!
Oh my god.
Is this the manifestation of my Yuchi Clan's ancestor?
Compared to Yuchi Gong's excitement, Qin Qiong was a little better. Seeing this, he also cupped his fists in excitement. "Little friend, don't worry. I, Old Wei, will take this matter to heart. I definitely won't accept too much! I'm selling it at a discount! "
When Yuchi Gong heard this, the thoughts in his mind instantly vanished.
Wei Zheng and the others didn't mind.
Li Chengqian, on the other hand, couldn't sit still. ,
"Feng Zi, if they all have one, then … then what about me?"
"How about me?"
When they heard this, half of the fire in their hearts was extinguished.
Right, if they all had one, then what about the Crown Prince?
What about the Emperor?
This was distributed according to family members. How could the Emperor be the same as them and only get 10% of the profits?
Zhang Feng hadn't thought that far. He thought about it and said, "You and your father will each get 10%."
When he heard this, Li Chengqian sat there happily and counted with his fingers.
The others also felt a little more at ease.
"Cough cough, Feng Zi, have you forgotten that there's still the matter of the honorary vice president?"
Zhangsun Wuji waited for the others to finish speaking before asking leisurely.
Zhang Feng's eyes instantly widened.
Right, how could he have forgotten about that old man?
What the f * ck.
After some thought, Zhang Feng said, "Well, when Lao Li delivers the things he promised me, I'll arrange it myself!"
"Enough talk, let's drink, drink!"
"Wait a moment."
After they finished dividing the spoils, Wei Zheng held down Zhang Feng's chopsticks and asked with a smile, "Now that we've finished talking, can you tell us why you didn't give us the paper? If this gets out, Lao Li and the rest of us will lose face in Chang 'an City. "
"You're not a good brother!"
When Zhang Feng saw that they had brought the topic back to this, he knew that he couldn't avoid it. He could only sigh and say, "I know how you feel, but you should know that this is not something I can decide. Once the white paper is released, it will inevitably have a conflict of interest with the four major paper mills in Chang 'an City and the Ministry of Works."
"The reason why I didn't give it to you was that Old Li broke his promise to me. Most importantly, I didn't want to get you involved in this. Do you know why I gave it to the Four Great Scholars?"
When they heard this, they shook their heads.
Even if they had their own thoughts, they didn't dare to make wild guesses.
"That's because, as great scholars, they come from aristocratic families with big businesses. With the four great scholars standing in front of them, why do you insist on sticking your heads in front of them?"
"I know that you have some connections in the officialdom, but can you compare to the four scholars? Even the emperor has to treat them with respect. They have a lot of disciples and whatnot. If they were to announce that this thing was useful, even if it was a pile of dog poop, people would rush to get it. But what about you? "
"You're just merchants. Once you're involved in this matter, even if you don't get killed, you won't be able to escape. Do you understand?"
"…"
