I heard my whole family are villains

Chapter 176 Firmly Reject
Although the court did not expressly stipulate that scholar-bureaucrats were not allowed to engage in business, they valued reputation very much. During the imperial examination, they had high requirements for personal morality, and they should not be stinky after becoming an official.

Therefore, even if they are engaged in business, the property of the important officials of the imperial court will be listed in other people's names.

Unless there is a huge benefit, they will never destroy their reputation.

Therefore, upon hearing this sentence, Lao Liu shook his head without thinking, "This is impossible!"

The more powerful the person is, the more he cherishes his feathers.

Although selling paper is better, it still makes people doubt the purpose.

Mu Yao didn't take it seriously, "Some people value gold and silver, while others prefer power and fame. If the three are taken into account, nothing is impossible."

Old Liu was speechless, "It's easy to say!"

Everyone knows the truth, but how can everything go well?

If it can be done, the Liu family will not need to ask for help, and there will be big bosses rushing to protect them.

"It can be done," Mu Yao said firmly, "as long as our paper is amazing enough!"

"The best paper at that time came from the Zheng family in Jinzhou. It was greasy and white in color, soft and thin in nature. It was light and firm, and it would not be damaged by long-term storage. in front of."

"Bailu paper has been around for a long time. It is precious but not uncommon. Naturally, no one made an idea. It must not be the case to replace it with a new one."

"Whimsical," Lao Liu still insisted on his point of view, "No matter how good the paper is, it is impossible to pull those high-ranking people into the mortal world."

"Forget it," Mu Yao knew that what he said was useless, so he didn't waste his words, "I'll put this aside for now, let's talk about it when we see the finished product."

"If it is true as you said, the old man promises that all the profits of this business will be given to you."

After all, even if you don't make money, being able to keep the Liu family is a big advantage.

"No need," Mu Yao didn't accept the kindness, "In business, you can divide the accounts as you like."

Selling paper was just a whim, but the more he thought about it, the more feasible it became.

"Daughter-in-law, I want to cooperate with Liu's family to sell paper." After returning home, Mu Yao immediately discussed with his wife, "Just the flower curtain paper, Xie Gong paper, and jade button paper that you will make soon."

Su Dai: ...

During the summer harvest, Mu Yao was very busy, but she and Nan Zai were very comfortable. When they came home at night, they still had some energy to vent.

Then find something for yourself.

The paper consumption at home was too much, so I thought about doing it myself, and said a few words casually while soaking the bark, but this guy remembered it clearly.

"Why did you make such a sudden decision?"

"There is too little money in the family, so I have to find a way to make some money, and I can also push the Liu family by the way. It's the best of both worlds."

"How are you going to do it?"

"Let me tell you first, I was inspired by Lu She." Mu Yao coughed before continuing to explain, "If according to what you said, the paper made by our family is beyond the times and ten times better than that produced by Zheng's. Must be crazy to buy."

"It's not that exaggerated, is it?"

"Yes, otherwise the Jinzhou Zheng family would not have survived for 200 years."

It is one aspect to be uplifting from descendants, and the other is good popularity.

The scholar-bureaucrats asked for others, and they would not consciously give in when getting along.

"If so, wouldn't meddling in the paper industry be an enemy of the Zheng family?"

Su Dai, who lives in Luo'an Town, has not yet realized the power of a famous family, but she is not stupid and knows what these four words carry.

Not only the background, but also time and struggle.

"Zheng's Bailu paper is the most famous, but the annual output is limited, and the supply is in short supply. They are not so overbearing that they do not allow any artificial paper, but..."

After a turn in the conversation, Mu Yao explained, "Jin and Lin are adjacent to each other, and the Zheng family is very sensitive in this regard, and they don't want to get into trouble, so no one directly confronts them."

"anything else?"

"However, if someone is interested in this piece of fat and has enough interests, the scope of operation will be much larger."

"Having said that, it's not easy to retreat completely."

Who wouldn't want to take a bite of the obvious fat?
This is no longer an enemy of the Zheng family.

"Well," Mu Yao also knew the seriousness of the matter, "I think so, first publicize the reputation of paper to attract the attention of the whole world, and then let the nobles of the aristocratic family fight for themselves."

The side that wins must have power.

Those who lose may not be willing to give up.

Under public opinion, the center of the storm was the calmest.

This move is wonderful, but it is only on the surface.

"The idea is very good. If you want to take the imperial examination, how can you ensure that you will not be settled by Qiuhou?"

People in the officialdom are all human beings, how could they be reconciled to being treated like a monkey?

Any stumbling block can make people miss the fame.

"Isn't there still the Liu family?" Mu Yao chuckled, "If there is only a shortage of shops and people, why should we share most of the benefits!"

Taking all the risks by oneself, but giving large sums of money to outsiders, isn't this a head-scratcher?
Su Dai was stunned.

After thinking for a while, she really couldn't figure it out, "If you want to make money, there are plenty of ways, and there is no need to risk the world's displeasure."

It doesn't cost much money, so why pull yourself into the center of the vortex?

"I'm just not convinced," Mu Yao said in a cold voice, "These big shots mess up other people's lives with a single move, why?"

What about little people?
Still don't suffer!
After listening, Su Dai suddenly said, "You bastard, you have a strong desire for revenge!"

The person behind the scheme plotted against the Liu family, but kept his head in the air. He obviously had concerns.

They are not afraid of the Liu family, but it is impossible to cover the sky with one hand.

The Liu family alone can't take revenge, but for the boss at the center of the vortex, it may be just a matter of words.

"So-so, not as good as your daughter-in-law."

The corner of Su Dai's mouth twitched, "Don't be modest!"

This guy is so ruthless when he doesn't suffer a loss, if he is bullied, can he destroy the world?

After weighing it over and over again, she denied the proposal, "I don't agree to this."

"why?"

"It's stupid to play with fire and burn yourself. Besides, Mr. Liu didn't move, why are you so anxious?"

"It's not that he doesn't want to take revenge, but that he has too many scruples. A big family and a great career are the confidence and the iron chains that bind him."

"That's not okay," Su Dai insisted. "A person must have basic ethics. The mastermind behind the scenes is not against us. It's too much to kill people rashly based on imagination!"

"Dai Dai," Mu Yao didn't feel that he was acting preemptively, "the fight for interests is more cruel than you think, believe me, they won't give up, let Master Liu hide last time, next time it will only be worse ruthless."

"It's not you who should be in a hurry," Su Dai rolled her eyes. "You are so young, what are you worrying about? Go to study and practice calligraphy when you are too free. You have missed a lot of homework. If you waste time, Not to mention Qiu Wei, Nan Zai can hang and beat you!"

In the end, under Su Dai's strong suppression, Mu Yao had no choice but to give up his plans and concentrate on swimming in the ocean of knowledge.
