Chapter 260
At this moment, Mo Heng was having a good time advising others. When he saw Xu Qing, he waved his hand and told them to go about their business. Then he walked up to Xu Qing and said, "My lord, why are you here?"
Xu Qing looked at the scattered crowd and said, "It seems that the training of new craftsmen who make rice paper is not going well?"
Mo Heng sighed: "When I was learning art when I was young, if I were like them, I would have lost several layers of skin, alas!"
Xu Qing patted Mo Heng on the shoulder: "Take it step by step slowly, they are still young and still have a lot of room for improvement."
Mo Heng stopped thinking about the craftsman, looked at Xu Qing and said, "Your Majesty, is there anything you want me to call over?"
Xu Qing said: "I have a new idea, and I need the help of my husband."
Mo Heng nodded and said: "My lord, feel free to speak, as long as I can do it, I will do whatever I want."
Xu Qing said with a smile: "National Chamber of Commerce plans to open a fireworks workshop."
"Firework shops?" Mo Heng frowned after hearing this and said, "My lord, it's not that villains are attacking you, but there are many fireworks shops in the capital, and after their continuous improvement, the styles of fireworks are also different. It is unique, it can be said that even if we open a fireworks shop, we may not be able to make money, not only will we not be able to make money, we may even lose money, sir, think twice!"
Xu Qing shook his head and said: "As long as our fireworks look better than theirs, we will naturally occupy the market."
Mo Heng said: "But..."
Xu Qing said: "Sir, you have to have confidence in yourself. Even if you don't have confidence in yourself, you still have to have confidence in me. I have been running the National Business School for so long. When did I ever do a business that lost money?"
What Xu Qing said immediately made Mo Heng stop talking about continuing to persuade.
Yes! The dignified Uncle Anding, the president of the National Chamber of Commerce, when did he ever do business at a loss?
Mo Heng is no longer a worker in the paper workshop, and has learned a lot about the industry of the National Chamber of Commerce.
The most amazing thing is the newspaper. One kind of newspaper that records the same content only costs one copper coin, but the other one costs a penny? !
And there are silly big dogs willing to buy it? !
Ultimately, what is needed is that such a thing called an advertisement can be published in such a small newspaper, and a few words can get such a considerable income!
Mo Heng has lived most of his life, and he has never seen such a good businessman!
The current Mo Heng in the National Chamber of Commerce can be said to be under the jurisdiction of anyone except Xu Qing.
Although Mo Heng's income is not as exaggerated as the real one thousand taels a month, there is still no problem with one thousand taels a year.
No matter how capable you are, you should enjoy high treatment. This is the rule set by Xu Qing.
Otherwise, why should the National Chamber of Commerce retain talents?
...
Xu Qing and Mo Heng walked on the road and said, "Mr. Mo."
Mo Heng said: "My lord, what's the matter?"
Xu Qing said: "Don't call me Sir in the future."
Mo Heng asked suspiciously, "What is it called?"
Xu Qing said: "If you really don't have a title, you can call him the dean, and tell the people in the National Chamber of Commerce later, if you can be called the dean, don't call him Lord."
Mo Heng nodded and said, "Yes, my lord, ahem, dean."
Xu Qing doesn't like others to call him Lord. Although he has been in this world for more than a year, Xu Qing has inevitably been assimilated by this world a lot, but there are still many places where he insists on own.
For example, addressing the problem is really not good, calling him a handsome guy or a handsome guy is fine!
Just don't call him "Ye" in the title. He who has received nine years of compulsory education sounds uncomfortable. I guess it would be uncomfortable for others to call a seventeen-year-old young man "Ye".
Both are uncomfortable, so just change the name.
I am still a seventeen-year-old spotless and beautiful boy, an honest and reliable young gentleman, what kind of master should I be if I have nothing to do!
Sounds old.
After the last Chinese New Year, Xu Qing had the idea of opening a fireworks shop. Fireworks in this era are still too monotonous. They can fly into the sky and explode a few flowers, or the craft is more complicated, just blowing out a few words and words. A pattern or something.
There is still huge room for improvement.
Moreover, opening a fireworks shop can also find a reasonable and legal reason to better obtain raw materials for making real firearms.
Mo Heng has a new task today, which is to make the firearm that Xu Qing thinks is qualified.
The action and execution power of the State Chamber of Commerce is definitely the fastest among the many yamen of the imperial court.
This is also something that can't be helped. With enough money as an incentive, it's hard to think about it quickly.
In just a few days, the fireworks workshop was completed, and among the many workshops, the fireworks workshop is the closest to Andingbo Mansion. It is convenient. Xu Qing can observe the progress of the fireworks production at any time, and propose improvement plans. As for the deeper point, it is convenient It is possible to receive the production progress of firearms at any time.
He, Xu Qing, wants to make a firearm quietly, and then amaze everyone!
Andingbo Mansion
bedroom
Su Qian was sitting behind the table drawing with a brush. She had just completed a painting and put it away when she saw Xu Qing pushing the door and walking in with an excited face.
Xu Qing walked to Su Qian's side and said, "Lady, do me a favor."
Su Qian nodded and said, "Husband said so."
Su Qian felt that her husband was very strange these few days. He had never seen his husband so excited. He left early and returned late every day. The reason was that the National Commercial College built a shop next to the Andingbo Mansion.
Even, my husband hasn't practiced well these days.
This made Su Qian very curious, what was it that could hold her husband's mind so much.
...
Today's Su Qian, after Xiao Ruxue's careful teaching, has perfected her painting skills.
This is different from the ladies of other families. The ladies of other families will marry the husband's family after the natal family has trained the piano, chess, calligraphy and painting.
But Xu Qing's family is not, the lady of Xu Qing's family married first, and then started to learn piano, chess, calligraphy and painting.
In the end, under the guidance of Xu Qing, Su Qian drew a few sketches. They were long and short, but they were all tube-shaped. I don't know what they were used for?
Su Qian looked at Xu Qing and couldn't help being curious, could it be that the things painted on these pictures were the culprits that made her husband so excited these days?
Your husband is really an amazing person.
Su Qian opened her mouth and asked, "What kind of thing did my husband ask my concubine to paint?"
Xu Qing said with a smile: "A weapon for self-defense."
"Weapon?" Su Qian asked suspiciously, "Without any edge or blade, how can it be called a weapon?"
Xu Qing shook his head and said, "It's a long-range weapon."
"Long range?" Su Qian thought of this and shook her head again: "No, there is no bow string and arrow, how can I hurt the enemy?"
"Young lady will know when you make it." Xu Qing said with a smile: "Speaking of which, I have been slack in martial arts for the past few days."
Su Qian looked at the sky outside, and her pretty face was covered with pink: "Husband, it's not dark yet, it's not time to practice..."
Xu Qing hugged Su Qianheng and said, "Isn't this a reflection of my hard work?"
