The old man's eyes were still cloudy, but a glimmer of light flashed in the depths of the cloudyness. "Counterfeiters do not need you and I to restrain them. They will eventually be annihilated in time."
Xianjin nodded soberly, "Survival of the fittest is the rule, especially in business. But, old man, have you ever thought that if you leave it alone, the ones that will be eliminated may not only be a few cheating rice paper workshops, but also——"
"The entire Xuancheng Paper Industry."
Xianjin spoke calmly but quickly, "Fujian's jade button paper, Sichuan's bamboo paper, jute paper, and silk paper, every generation has its own talented people. If Xuancheng paper loses its reputation and stagnates, hundreds of other types of paper will be eager to take its place throughout the country. Do you dare to bet on this?"
The old man took a few deep breaths. He was very old, and his eyes were cloudy and unclear. It was difficult for him to see people and things ten meters away. He couldn't see the appearance of the girl sitting at the top, who spoke softly but had a clear and powerful voice. But he could vaguely see a stream of air flowing from the back of the person at the top.
An extremely bold, extremely resilient, and extremely upward spirit.
This energy, like a sharp knife, breaks through the barriers and strikes straight into the sky.
Xuancheng, Xuancheng's paper industry has been silent for too long.
Like tired birds in the forest and sleeping animals on the grassland, it is difficult to catch a glimpse of the grand occasion decades ago when the Liuzhang Xuan and Bazhang Xuan were produced and the streets were deserted.
If he could still see the scene of Xuan paper shining on the land of Kyushu during his lifetime, it would be worthy of his hard work in his youth, sweating profusely in the baking room in the dog days of summer and freezing his arms in the fishing pond in the coldest days of winter.
The old man stood up tremblingly, stretched out his hand to take the soft brush, squinted his eyes, and wrote his name stroke by stroke. Finally, he picked up the fifth membership form, held the contract at arm's length, and muttered, "Xuancheng Paper Industry Chamber of Commerce Membership Form... President, Chen Ji He Xianjin; Vice President, Heng Ji Heng Lian; Vice President, Heng Ji Heng Xi... All members must abide by the law and the bottom line, and understand the key points of the contract..."
When a flock of geese fly north, they need a strong leader; when a lion roars to shake the sky, it needs a fierce and powerful leader.
The old man raised his head and repeated Xianjin's name, "He Xianjin."
Xianjin nodded solemnly, "It's me."
The old man smiled and said, "Xuan paper, it's up to you."
After speaking, the old man dipped his finger into the ink and pressed his fingerprint on the membership book.
Xianjin was excited. He took a deep breath and pursed his lips slightly.
The remaining workshops lined up to sign the deeds. Finally, the middle-aged man in a turmeric-colored shirt, who was looking around bored, quickly pressed a dozen fingerprints. Suo'er handed over the pen with both hands and asked softly, "Do you want to sign two more?"
The uncle shook his head and said, "I can't read, so why should I sign?"
Xianjin said, "You can't read, so why did you sign the contract? Aren't you afraid that I will cheat you? "
The uncle looked at Xianjin as if he was a fool. "The Heng family has signed it. I will follow them to sign. There can't be any mistakes, right? If you get cheated, the Heng family will be the first to not forgive you. I will hand them a brick when the time comes."
Such a simple and violent thought...
Xianjin found out where this damn sense of familiarity came from - pure luck, isn't this exactly like Chen Fu!
......
After the sixteen parties signed, the deed was made in duplicate and kept by each party.
Xianjin tapped the table with his hand, pursed his lips and smiled, his voice sounding as steady as someone who had been floating in the clouds all day and finally landed. "Okay, we can finally discuss business."
"That is also the third most important thing today."
WHAT ELSE?
Is there anything weirder than them joining a rice paper merchant association out of nowhere?!
To be honest, everyone is a little tired.
Men who have reached middle age obviously do not have the physical strength and energy to outlast the well-prepared and crazy gold rush.
Xianjin sat in the chair at the head, his eyes burning, "This year's tribute paper will be selected from jade button and Xuan paper. The government has assigned Chen Ji to complete this task, but I plan to sign up for the competition in the name of 'Xuancheng Paper Industry Chamber of Commerce'."
The crowd was shocked.
tired?
Why are you so tired!
Roll them all up for me!
Tribute paper!
The government asked Chen Ji to do it!
Chen Ji beat the "Chamber of Commerce" out!
What does it mean?!
This means that Chen Ji gave up the honor brought by the exclusive use of tribute paper, and instead chose to launch the "Xuan Paper Chamber of Commerce"!
This means that everyone here has the opportunity to become a gong paper manufacturer!
If you brag about this, it will be on the front page of your family tree! Your reputation will be passed down through the ages! Your reputation will be passed down through the ages!
Oh my god!
Is there anything more fortunate than joining the "Xuancheng Paper Industry Chamber of Commerce" for no apparent reason today? ?
