Unparalleled Fortune in Qing Dynasty

Chapter 146
In the end, Brother Jiu came out of the Qianqing Palace in a daze, and he was still in a trance after he came out.

The tenth brother Yin heard that his ninth brother was summoned by Huang Ama, and was afraid that Huang Ama would beat him, so he hurried over after learning the news.

Just happened to meet Yinzhen who was in a trance.

Yin looked at Yinzhen worriedly: "Ninth Brother, Huang Ama didn't hit you, did she?"

Yinzhen shook his head: "Huang Ama didn't hit me."

Yin breathed a sigh of relief: "It's fine if you don't get beaten."

In his opinion, as long as you don't get hit by a board, it doesn't matter.

Yinzhen came back to his senses now.

"Didn't you say that Niu Colu's mother was unwell and needed to take care of her, why did you come here?"

Yin told the truth: "I'm not afraid that you will be spanked by Huang Ama. I'm thicker and thicker than you. I think I can help you a few times when you are spanked."

Yinzhen: Although I know he has good intentions, I can't expect him to be kind.

Yin: "By the way, what did Huang Ama say, did she agree with you to do business?"

Yinzhen nodded: "Huang Ama agrees."

Even if it is a little different from what he thinks, he can't tell this stupid goose clearly, and I will tell him later.

Yinzhen has already made up his mind, anyway, he has Huang Ama's permission, he can do other things while doing the business of pencils.

He still wanted to "pit" people like the third elder brother.

It's best to earn some money from the third brother, so as not to make him hateful.

Yin only heard him say that Huang Ama agreed, so he nodded happily: "That's really great, since you're fine, I'll go back first."

Yinzhen stopped him: "Wait a minute, what happened to Niu Colu's mother?"

Speaking of Concubine Niu Colu, Yin felt a little depressed: "Emiang is still the same, and the imperial doctor said that she can only keep her."

Yinzhen sighed inwardly: "I'll go with you to see Niu Colu's mother."

Yin nodded: "Alright."

……

Then Yinzhen knew about Kangxi's decision. Yinzhen had no objection to handing over the pencil to Yinzhen, and Yinzhen had nothing to say about Yinzhen's business talent.

In the dream, Yinzhen relied on his ability to turn stones into gold to make money bags for Lao Ba, otherwise, with his virtuous name, Lao Ba would not be able to win over half of the court to speak for him.

Yinzhen always felt that the eighth elder brother in the dream had the capital to win the heir, half of which was given by Yinzhen.

Therefore, Yinzhen felt that it was all right to leave the matter of pencils to Yinzhen.

……

"Fu Jin, brother Jiu came to see me."

Brother Nine?
Tong Cheng'er remembered that Yin Zhen had said once that the matter of pencils would be left to Brother Jiu to handle in the future.

She put down the notebook in her hand, and said, "Please come in, brother Jiu."

"Yes, Fujin."

Then, she said again: "Go to Qiqiaoyuan and bring the five masters here."

"Yes, Fujin."

The five masters from Qiqiao Academy came first, last time they improved the pencil, Tong Chenger was generous and gave another sum of money, so they were all eager to be ordered by her.

"The servant has seen Fujin."

"The masters are polite."

"Xie Fujin."

Tong Cheng'er asked them to serve them tea, and then said: "I called a few masters here today, and I have something to talk about. Brother Jiu will come over later, and this pencil will be sold in the future, and this sale will be made by Jiu A Brother will take care of it, five of you can make pencils, so I decided to let two of you follow Brother Jiu for a while, which one of you would like to?"

The five looked at each other, they had heard of Brother Nine, as far as they knew, this Brother Nine should not be very old, follow him, will this have a future?
For a while, they didn't know how to make a decision.

Tong Cheng'er took a sip of tea and asked, "Why, no one wants to?"

No one spoke.

"Ninth elder brother is generous, you won't suffer any loss if you follow him, and you will only follow him for a while, and you will come back in the future."

She chose these five people based on their character, but she was really lucky. The five of them were more flexible in their minds. If they were really going to be given to Brother Nine, she would be reluctant!

In the end, two spoke, the youngest two.

Tong Cheng'er took a look at the two of them, left them behind, and let them go back for the rest.

Not long after, Brother Nine came in.

After greeting each other, Brother Nine said, "Fourth Brother asked me to come and find Fourth Sister-in-law, Fourth Sister-in-law, do you see this?"

Tong Cheng'er smiled and nodded: "Your fourth brother told me that I have already prepared everything for you."

After finishing speaking, she introduced the two people on the side to Yinzhen.

After the introduction, Tong Cheng'er ordered Rulan to go to the study to bring a stack of files, and handed them to Yinzhen: "The materials needed for the pencil, I sent someone to inquire about the origin and price of some of these materials. Yes, your fourth brother said that although you are talented, it's your first time doing business, so I'll give you these, so you don't have to take some detours."

Yinzhen is not a person who doesn't know what is good or bad, although he is a little surprised that the fourth brother can think so much for him, but since it is a good intention, he has no reason not to accept it.

"There's my fourth brother and fourth sister-in-law."

Tong Cheng'er smiled slightly: "It's all what it should be."

Having said all this, Tong Cheng'er inevitably said a few more words.

"Did your fourth brother tell you the meaning of this pencil?"

Yinzhen shook her head: "Recently, the household department has been a little busy, and the fourth brother probably hasn't had time to talk about it yet."

Tong Cheng'er: "If you don't mind, let me tell you something."

Yinzhen: "Let the fourth sister-in-law speak directly."

He did have two pencils with him, and Huang Ama gave them to him, but when he gave them, he didn't say how to use them, but only told him to come to Fourth Brother.

The fourth brother asked him to come to the fourth sister-in-law again.

Of course he didn't mind knowing more.

Tong Cheng'er: "That's what your fourth brother planned..."

Tong Cheng'er shared the idea of ​​"How to use pencils to reduce the silver required for children's enlightenment so that most ordinary people can also have books to read" to Yinzhen.

After Yinzhen listened, she understood what she meant.

The cost of this pencil is very low, and the price should not be too high after it is made, otherwise ordinary people cannot afford it.

This made Yinzhen feel uncomfortable.

He came from a wealthy family, and his mother favored him. Although he was not outstanding academically among his brothers, he was serious about earning money in business.

Since it is serious, it is natural to make money.

It can be said that what he earns is not only money, but also a sense of accomplishment.

Seeing his pale face, Tong Cheng'er asked him: "What's the matter, what doubts do Brother Jiu have?"

Yinzhen just wanted to shake his head, but he didn't shake his head in the end, he was puzzled and said, "Sister-in-law Si, this pencil doesn't make much money, so it's kind of boring."

After Tong Cheng'er listened, she shook her head and said, "Why did the ninth brother say that?"

Although Yinzhen has never done business, she is interested in this way and has learned about some of it.

"The cost of pencils is low, and the price is not high. If the price is set according to the price that ordinary people can afford, then the profit of a pen is only a few pennies."

Tong Cheng'er heard that Brother Jiu thought the profit margins of pencils were low.

Thinking of this, Tong Cheng'er couldn't help laughing.

Even though she said this, Tong Cheng'er knew that the pencil was a way of small profits but high sales, and there was a lot of money to be made in it!
Thinking about it this way, Tong Cheng'er saw that Brother Jiu was not very old, so she wanted to mention a few words. In fact, it was not a point. After all, she has learned a lot about modern marketing methods, so she can naturally learn a little bit. Come here, it's not bad to "enlighten" the children.

"Ninth brother, how many people are there in the Qing Dynasty?"

Xintang frowned, he is still studying in the study, how could he know this.

He shook his head: "I never knew, I don't know why fourth sister-in-law asked these questions?"
