Chapter 561: People in the Northwest Completely Restore Normal Life
Tang Mingrui had already thought of countless business strategies in his mind, and even had a preliminary plan for the prices of these ingredients. Especially this delicious and refreshing wine, which made him see unlimited business opportunities.
The unlimited business opportunity is not about how many are sold, but about the high price.
After countless collaborations, He Zhiran was very satisfied with the prices set by Tang Mingrui, so she didn't plan to worry too much this time.
Anyway, her business with Tang Mingrui was based on profit-sharing. The issue of price not only affected the interests of the Mo family, but also how much Tang Mingrui could earn.
There is nothing secret about the method of making a copper pot. Anyone who is interested can learn it by looking at this pot and studying it a little.
He Zhiran's confidence in the exclusive hot pot business mainly comes from the dipping sauce and soup base seasoning.
These are all production methods unique to the Mohist school, especially the raw materials, which no one else can get.
Therefore, she told Tang Mingrui with certainty that hot pot could be an exclusive business for a long time, and even if someone imitated it, it would be a low-end business.
Unfortunately, He Zhiran only made wine from the wild grapes in the courtyard this year and did not reach the level of mass production.
Besides, she could see that both fathers seemed to have a special liking for this wine.
So, these small amounts of grape racks can only be used by her family for now. When the grape yield on the mountain increases next year, she will be able to brew wine in large quantities. By that time, she can cooperate with Tang Mingrui, and it will surely be another considerable income.
Tang Mingrui felt very sorry that he could not cooperate in the wine business immediately.
But he was not greedy. As long as he maintained sincere cooperation with the Mohist School, these businesses would be his sooner or later.
This meal not only made Minister He like life at his daughter's home more, but He Zhiran also signed a contract with Tang Mingrui to open a hot pot restaurant.
It was still the same as before, the Mo family was responsible for providing the food and ingredients, Tang Mingrui was responsible for running the shop and doing business, and the profits were still split 50-50 between the two families.
In addition, the mature vegetables in the Mo family greenhouse can also be provided in large quantities to Tang Mingrui's restaurant.
Tang Mingrui was exactly what he wanted.
He felt that this trip was the most rewarding one since he came to Mohism.
How could someone who could become a future great merchant fail to see the huge profits of hot pot?
In short, Tang Mingrui returned with a full load this time, and he started preparing to open a store after returning.
Now that Mo Jiuye is guarding the western border, the people in the northwest have completely resumed their normal lives.
His shop wouldn't be affected by the war at all, and his shops had already expanded to other states...
After the cooperation with Tang Mingrui on the hot pot restaurant ended, He Zhiran continued to develop other industries.
…
Time flies, and in the blink of an eye it is the twelfth lunar month.
On the country road leading to Xiling Village, Mo Jiuye led a team of people and rode at full speed towards home.
As early as a month ago, he received instructions from Nan Yu to capture all the barbarian royal family and nobles and escort them to the capital.
The rest of the people continued to live their original lives.
At the same time, the vast territory of Manyi also became part of Mo Jiuye's fiefdom.
He followed He Zhiran's advice and distributed some winter food to the barbarian people to appease the people.
After those people have gone through a winter without anyone starving to death, they will certainly be grateful to Mo Jiuye, and may even think that Dashun's conquest of the barbarians is a great thing for them.
Indeed, what do ordinary people think?
It’s nothing more than that their family can have enough food and clothing, and they will support whoever can give them such a life.
It was indeed so. After receiving the food distributed by Mo Jiuye, the barbarians knelt on the ground and imitated the Dashun people, shouting "Long Live the King of Zhenxi". Some even said that they were willing to serve the King of Zhenxi like slaves for the rest of their lives.
He didn't know whether these people could really work like slaves, but Mo Jiuye was sure that these people supported him sincerely.
When spring comes next year and flowers bloom, he will send the barbarians a quantity of horses, cattle and sheep according to his wife's plan.
Although the land in the barbarian areas is barren, it does not mean that there is no resource at all. On the contrary, there is a lot of it.
However, the ordinary seeds in the hands of the people had no yield at all after planting them. If this continued for a long time, a lot of land would be left barren.
Before Mo Jiuye left, he asked Liang Hao to stay with a team of people and appointed him as the governor of the barbarian area.
This governorship is no ordinary position.
In the prefectures of Dashun, the chief was generally a prefect, and in some places the imperial court would also send a general. In other words, a prefecture usually had one civil official and one military general.
Of course, the Northwest region is special. Because there is a large army guarding the western border, there is no post of general in the provincial capital.
In Dashun, the governor was a combination of the prefect and the general. In other words, Liang Hao was both the prefect of the barbarian area and the general here, with a team of 10,000 people under his command.
This 10,000-man army was sent by the imperial court to attack the western border. Mo Jiuye commanded effectively and had a large number of bombs in his hands, so that the Dashun side suffered almost no damage throughout the battle.
Anyway, the princes who own fiefdoms can maintain a certain number of troops. Besides, the barbarians have just recovered their territory, and it is unreasonable to have no troops to garrison them.
Mo Jiuye wrote directly to Nan Yu, requesting that some soldiers be left behind as guards.
When Nan Yu sent the army to the western border, he had thought that there might be 20 to 30 percent casualties. However, the information Mo Jiuye reported to him was that there were almost no casualties.
In this case, he might as well do a favor and keep the part of the army that he planned would be killed or wounded in the battle, and transfer the rest.
In this way, not only did Mo Jiuye's needs get met, but he himself also felt that there was no loss.
After all, if Mo Jiuye had not gone to fight, the soldiers he sent out would most likely never return, and he felt that it was not a loss at all.
The most important point is his trust in the Mo family.
When he asked Mo Jiuye to fight, he had the idea of trusting people and not employing people if he is not sure, and it is still the same now.
Mo Jiuye was not greedy. He had his old subordinates as his private soldiers, and he also had the 10,000 troops given by Nan Yu.
After the New Year, he can develop slowly and doesn't have to worry about the number of troops.
After settling the barbarians, he and his brothers rode home at full speed.
He had never felt so worried when he went to the battlefield before.
Now it is completely different. He misses his lovely wife and two lovely children so much.
He has been away for several months, and Ranran must have worked hard for this family.
Will the two children still recognize him as their father?
With anticipation, Mo Jiuye braved the severe cold and arrived at Xiling Village as quickly as possible.
After paying his respects to his parents and briefly explaining the course of the war in the western border, Mo Jiuye couldn't wait to rush back home.
