Chapter 51: The Third Great Plan for Making Money

  The second update is here, thank you for the interesting rewards and likes from several big brothers! The third update will be uploaded around 10 o'clock. Cheers!

  The four men did not get up and continued to kneel on the ground, knocking their heads to Zhang Sun and saying: "We will definitely do our best for the young master with no private thoughts."

  "Alright, everyone get up, who among you has been to Zhuozhou?" Changsun Chong asked.

  "I've been there!" Chang Sun Hua stood up and said, "I followed the Chang Sun family's merchant caravan to purchase medicinal herbs there, it was very hot!"

  Chang Sun Chong took out a piece of paper and said, "Have you ever seen this kind of leaf?"

  "After looking at it, this kind of leaf is called birch leaf, the leaves are very big and sturdy, and not easy to rot, waterproof, so the local people like to use this thing as a roof or raincoat. Young master, what do you want to use this for?" Chang Sunhua asked in confusion.

  Chang Sun Chong laughed and said, "Since you know him, go get me two ships' worth of birch leaves. I have a big use for them!" Chang Sun Chong instructed, "As for the expenses, just go to the accounting room to withdraw the money."

  Chang Sun thought of making sanitary napkins, which would require cotton. He asked Chang Sun Hua to procure the cotton, now called white fluffy and white fluffy seeds. Next year, they would have people plant cotton, so the price of white fluffy would drop a lot, and there would be a possibility of expanding the business.

  "Uncle Fu, this is the method for brewing high-proof liquor. You find a craftsman to make the necessary tools." Changsun Chong handed over a stack of papers to Changsun Fu, "This must be kept secret, it's our family's way of making money, can't let it leak out. When you find craftsmen to make the tools, have them work in batches, so they won't know about the other parts."

  "Master, I know you will do your best. The craftsmen we've hired are all from our family's fiefdom and estates, very loyal. Plus, with your suggestion earlier. However, this year the grain is scarce, not enough to eat, so I suggest we try a small scale first, and when there's more grain, we can expand." Longsun Fu knew that strong liquor made money, but how could common people afford it when they couldn't even get enough food? Where would they get the money to buy liquor, or the grain to brew it?

  Chang Sun Chong had forgotten about this, fortunately Chang Sun Fu reminded him, otherwise he would have had a few more purple footprints on his butt.

  "Alright, I'll do it your way!"

  Chang Sun had a technique for making glass and glass mirrors in his hands, which was shiny and made beautiful vessels. It was a great profit, but he didn't dare to swallow it alone. The next day, he entered the palace and presented the things to Empress Dowager, letting her also accumulate some private money, giving more dowry to the daughters, and filling their underwear.

  As for papermaking and printing, with the strength of their eldest grandson's family alone, they cannot quickly expand the scale. Thinking of those idle brothers, it would be better to pull them together to do business, let those old guys see that they are not useless and can also make a name for themselves.

  "Uncle Gui, Uncle Rong, this is the method to reform the paper-making technique. As long as you follow what I said above, you will definitely succeed." Zhangsun Chong smiled and said, after making paper and toilet paper, let's find my brothers to discuss ways to make a fortune together.

  Four people received things and went their separate ways.

  Originally, Zhangsun Chong was worried that these people would leak secrets. After listening to this, Zhangsun Wuji sneered: "The contracts of their fathers, mothers, sons and daughters are all in the hands of the Zhangsun family. If they betray the Zhangsun family, they will worry about their lives. They dare not betray us; besides, there are many people starving outside, these people rely on the Zhangsun family, at least they have not starved to death, they should be grateful."

  "So that's how it is!" Although I think this way of doing things is inhumane, with these people's contracts, one effort and eternal ease, the situation of betraying the master has decreased a lot.

  "Son, it's more fun to have many people happy together than just one person being happy alone. We can't be the only ones making a lot of money, we also need to bring your brothers along!" Zhangsun Wuji knew that the bird that sticks its head out gets shot, and the tree that stands out in the forest will be blown down by the wind. He hoped his son wouldn't just look at the present, but also see the long-term future.

  Chang Sun smiled and said, "Dad, don't worry, I'm going to give the most profitable business to Auntie, so she'll have some money and it will be more convenient for her to do things. As for papermaking and printing, I plan to get my brothers from Chang'an to join in and share the risks."

  Chang Sun Wuji nodded, feeling relieved and said: "Good, now I can rest assured! Tomorrow when you arrive at the palace, you must not mess up the rules. The Emperor and I have already settled your marriage with Chang Le, tomorrow when you enter the palace, don't forget to bring some gifts that a girl would use."

  Chang Sun Chong's face turned pale as he said, "Dad, I'm cousins with Princess Chang Le, isn't this not good?"

  Chang Sun Wuji looked at Chang Sun Chong's displeased face and said with a stern expression: "What's wrong? Noble bloodline! You little brat, do you want to learn from Cheng Jia Lao San? I'm telling you, no way. Chang Le has been raised by me and your mother since childhood, she is virtuous and gentle, quite like your aunt's demeanor. You'd better behave yourself, when Chang Le comes of age, I'll arrange a marriage for you. You also know that in the past, you were not well-behaved and often annoyed Chang Le, from now on, don't do such things."

  "Dad, you know it too, Chang Le doesn't like me, she thinks I'm ugly!"

  "Good looks can't be eaten as rice, nor can they be used to buy things. What's most important for a man is to have integrity and talent. Back then, your mother didn't think much of me either, but I still defeated many rivals and won the beauty's hand." Longsun Wuji was very proud of his heroic deeds in his youth. At that time, Li Er was also one of the pursuers of Duan Shi, but his wife chose him, which shows how excellent he is. Appearance isn't the only standard; it's still necessary to look at inner qualities.

  Chang Sun Chong knew he couldn't resist, so he could only accept. As for whether the next generation would become stupid or not, that would be said later! The multi-treasured pavilion above the house had already been filled with people by Duan Shi's order. His father reminded him to pay attention when meeting the Crown Prince of Chang Le tomorrow, and he couldn't drop the chain at critical moments. Seeing no one around, he took a Xian He Teng Yun Ling Zhi Pan Hua incense burner into space, arriving at a popular accessory store in the post-apocalyptic world.

  A little beauty dressed between mainstream and non-mainstream saw someone coming in, and hastily asked: "What do you want to exchange?" Her store had been open for a long time, and Zhangsun Chong was considered her first customer.

  Chang Sun rushed in and saw the transparent glass cabinet behind, full of lovely and beautiful decorations, and asked: "What do little girls like?"

  The little beauty's eyes rolled around and asked: "Hehe, is it for your girlfriend?"

  "Alright then!" said Zhang Sun Chong with a nod.

  "Hehe, then the gift you give must be very special, very beautiful and shocking. Small trinkets won't do, look over there, they have all sorts of crystal princess hair crowns." The little beauty introduced, "Most girls are interested in shiny things!"

  Chang Sun Chong placed the Xianhe Tengyun Lingzhi Panhua incense burner on the table and said, "How many can you exchange for this?"

  The little beauty measured with the energy measuring machine and smiled: "I know yours, since you want to give it to your girlfriend, just give this big princess hair crown, four weeks are all white transparent diamonds, a few pink ones in the middle play a finishing touch; The remaining time energy points can be exchanged for six small princess hair crowns, just right to give to your sister."

  "Okay, you help me pick!" Zhangsun felt that they were all about the same, couldn't make up his mind, and directly let Xiaomei help choose.

  Chang Sun was satisfied with the items in hand, left the doomsday space and carefully placed the exquisite box. The next day, she would give the large hairpiece to Princess Chang Le, and the other six would be given to her younger sisters as birthday gifts. This beautiful princess hairpiece would surely dazzle Princess Chang Le's eyes, and once she accepted the gift, everything else would fall into place!

  Spoiling women, for Zhang Sun's sake, there is no obstacle at all. For older female relatives, they should be respected and relied upon, inducing their maternal care; as for young people of the opposite sex, it's even simpler, being nice to her one moment and provoking her anger the next, unable to guess his thoughts, after a few times, she will love him and hate him at the same time.
