Ever since he cut off the family's supply, these people have become much quieter and no longer dared to interfere in other people's affairs. They were the typical example of a kind-hearted person being bullied, who ended up not being able to hold back and almost got into trouble. It was really ridiculous.
Yu Xiuming even gave up the shipping business, and even the steel shop that supplied the ships started making other things and stopped supplying.
This caused those elders who were planning to make a big move to collapse halfway. In the end, they asked his father to intercede for them. Only then did Yu Xiuming take over the shipping business again. After Yu Xiuming got the steel, the shipping business started to make a lot of money. It can be said that they just took advantage of the materials. However, Yu Xiuming was definitely not happy that these people actually interfered in his affairs.
After this incident, everyone in the family had witnessed Yu Xiumin's temper, so for a while no one dared to provoke him or make him angry, and they even avoided people. They basically did not say anything about the supplies that Yu Xiuming handed over to the family. After all, Yu Xiuming now had a lot of connections and even a lot of recipes. Why should they bother to offend him? These things were even the dowry of someone else's wife. It would not matter if these recipes were given to them directly at the beginning, but the topic was brought up.
Generally, no son from the husband's family is willing to touch the bride's dowry. If they do, they will be regarded as incompetent. They don't want to be called incompetent and foolish when they are old.
This gave Yu Xiuming more time to focus on his business, which in turn made it flourish. Meanwhile, after reaping so much profit, the family members were even less willing to question anything. After all, the more money Yu Xiuming made, the more he handed over to the family. Since they could still profit, why would they try to stop him?
So this formed an unsolvable closed loop. At the same time, no one dared to say to Yu Xiuming that it was unreasonable or that he shouldn't dote on his wife so much. Instead, everyone pretended not to see it. After all, this thing was someone else's wife's dowry. It was extremely inappropriate to give a copy to the family. What qualifications did they have to say those things here?
As for the actions of these people, we can only say that they are aware of the current situation. Even after they stopped talking, Yu Xiuming was able to act more freely. The main reason was that there were still conservatives among these people who were always unwilling for Yu Xiuming to reform, and now they are silent.
Now, because Yu Xiuming is frantically developing all kinds of new things, the overall strength of the Yu family has increased a lot. So now no matter what Yu Xiuming does, even without the support of City Lord Yu, the elders of the Yu family dare not say anything. They just began to support him vaguely, and some people secretly contacted Yu Xiuming to want to invest.
This is not Yu Xiuming starting to take drastic measures to directly cut out all the rotten flesh of the Yu family. In the past, their family was involved in the business of buying and selling equipment, but Yu Xiuming has never intervened in this matter since he took over. Even though there are still many blacksmith shops, he uses them to research his new cast steel products, which are specially used for wrapping ships. He has never sold any weapons to the outside world.
In fact, they really shouldn't touch weapons. The only reason they could touch them in the beginning was because City Lord Yu was still alive and stood in front of them to protect them from the wind and rain. That's why they sold weapons so recklessly for so many years. But think about it carefully, if the weapons didn't really come from the official hands, and if something really happened to his father, they would be the first to be in trouble. There is no doubt that Yu Xiuming knows these people in his family very well.
Therefore, no one in the family tried to stop him from carrying out the reform this time. They even took direct action to deal with those who were blocking him. Even if some people secretly resented him or wanted to go back to their old ways, Yu Xiuming did not show mercy and directly expelled them from the family. They could not afford such people. Their Yu family was in the limelight right now and did not want to see any fools. Therefore, Yu Xiuming's approach this time was swift and decisive. In just half a month, he had cleaned up the mess of the Yu family.
With the new emperor on the throne, it is naturally not as easy as before to take advantage of loopholes, and Yu Xiuming is now just involved in the affairs of the court. When the reckoning really comes in the future, the Yu family will probably not get anything good, and may even have to pay a lot to save the Yu family. Even if they have some people in their hands, they are too few and cannot compare to the entire army of the Great Zhou.
Now, Yu Xiuming has thrown himself into cosmetics and cannot extricate himself. He not only developed moisturizing lotion, but also extracted toner by distillation. He crushed various fresh flowers and ground them into some blush, blush rouge and powder, all of which have very bright colors.
He also specially researched something like eye shadow. Originally, the raw materials for eye shadow were not easy to find, but Yu Xiuming had a lot of money to spend. He used the money to directly create a new way and even found many alternatives. These were quickly researched out.
It didn't take long for the cosmetics made by Yu Xiuming to find a market again. Yu Xiuming was also a very smart man. He specially found some young and beautiful women for training and asked them to do makeup for the ladies. With the comparison, they naturally sold more and even gave rise to the profession of makeup artist. You have to know that in the past, only personal maids could do this job.
When they put on makeup, they made themselves look like red apples at the beginning, and now they have gradually adopted the appearance of modern cosmetics, which have increased their original six-point beauty to ten points. They became popular all of a sudden, especially in Jizhou City, where the sales volume is even more outrageous.
