Chapter 50 Women Entrepreneurs
On the second day, when everyone saw Mr. Zhao going up to the court in high spirits, they were all thinking silently in their hearts.

This is what happened again?

When Ying Zheng saw her coming, he didn't know what she was going to report.

The early court proceeded normally, and Li Si first expounded the powerful printing ability of printing.

Some of the bamboo slips preserved by the Qin State have all been rubbed and preserved on paper.

Then others reported something else.

Zhao Jun just listened. After a while, no one spoke, so she came out.

"I have something to play." Zhao Jun came out from the seat next to him.

"allow."

Ying Zheng glanced at her, not knowing what she was going to say.

"The paper workshop and bookstore have been operating normally for more than a month. The following is the amount of money earned from paper making last month."

Zhao Jun took out the form he had sorted out yesterday and handed it to the above, and then told all the amounts.

"Excluding the wages paid to the workers and the taxes paid, the bookstore made a total profit of ten gold, five thousand and a half taels last month."

The main big head is the gold that some rich people buy white paper flowers.

This amount is only the amount of the first month.

According to Zhao Jun's vision, when the name of the paper spreads all over the world, the profits will more than double by then.

"There are so many."

Ying Zheng looked at the paper she handed in with the amount of money written on it, and he didn't expect such a turnover in just one month.

Now the state of Qin no longer has to worry about having no money.

"Okay! Zhao Qing is worthy of being the pillar of the country, and I will reward you a lot."

Ying Zheng smiled happily and rewarded her with some money.

The other people facing up were surprised when they heard the number.

There is envy, there is admiration, and there are many who are sour.

So far, the workshop has been running smoothly, and Zhao Jun's heart is also relieved.

Tired for more than a month, Zhao Jun planned to take a rest, so he waved his hands and told Qingliu all the things about the workshop.

Let Qingliu practice well, and she will read the report and sign it later.

Also, she was so busy that she didn't have time to read more, she only knew Qin Wen well, and she didn't have time to read the modern books sent by the old man.

Now that she is finally free, she has to recharge quickly.

Books on papermaking were temporarily out of use, so she flipped through the pile of books and finally picked the most practical one.

Created by nature.

Zhao Jun still has a lot of deficiencies in her knowledge about agriculture and handicrafts, but she is fascinated by the amount of writing in this book and the breadth of coverage.

It's almost winter here, so she should study this book carefully, it will definitely come in handy when next year's spring plowing.

But the leisurely life did not let her live for too long, half a month later Qingliu came to the door.

"My lord, this meeting really needs you."

Ever since Qingliu took over the work of the handicraft workshop, she has been conscientious and diligent, and hardly bothered Zhao Jun, and solved it by herself.

In the past half month, she has fully matured, and she even looks more lively because of dealing with people more.

The whole person is also more confident.

This time she hurried into the palace and stood at Zhao Jun's door and shouted a few times.

"What's the matter, what happened?"

Zhao Jun yawned and opened the door. Last night, she watched too late, and she slept until noon.

"It's like this. The workshop has been operating normally for half a month, but the paper has spread all over the world. Now Xianyang City has many businessmen from other countries. The bookstore can't sell them so much at once, otherwise the locals will buy it. It's not here."

Qingliu took a breath and spoke quickly.

"So those people found the workshop and wanted to buy it directly from us. I don't know how to sell it to them and how much it should be priced."

Qingliu finished speaking in one breath and waited for Zhao Jun's reaction.

Zhao Jun half-closed his eyes and understood what she meant.

Isn't this just right? Of course, these businessmen are inseparable from transferring large amounts of money.

Before, she still worried about how to find these businessmen.

I didn't expect to be worthy of being a businessman, so I touched it by myself after smelling it.

"In this way, you send an invitation to these businessmen and get them all together. I'll meet them later."

Zhao Jun told Qingliu to go quickly, she went back and changed clothes before leaving the palace.

Qingliu's speed was very fast, when Zhao Jun left the palace, she had already arranged people, and she was waiting for Zhao Jun at the palace gate.

"It's already noon, I arranged them all in Xianyang Xiaozhu, and it happened to be time for dinner."

As Qingliu spoke, he led her to the east.

"Xianyang Xiaozhu? I've never heard of it."

It was the first time Zhao Jun heard of this place.

"It's a newly opened restaurant in Xianyang. It is said that there are people with a background in the imperial court. They serve stir-fried dishes, which taste good. It's a bit far from our Neishi Mansion, so you haven't seen it by the way."

Restaurant, it just so happens that it's also lunch time.

"Qingliu, why do I feel like I haven't seen you for half a month? You know more about this Xianyang than I do. The arrangements are good and progress has been made."

Zhao Jun teased her twice, this is the first time she came here to participate in the dinner.

"No, it's because you are busy with business, my lord. If I have nothing to do, I will run around more to understand." Qingliu replied with an embarrassed smile.

After walking for a while, I finally came to this small building in Xianyang. From the outside, it looks like a two-story building with a yard, and the environment is quite good.

Zhao Jun turned his head and looked around for a moment, then followed Qingliu into the reserved private room.

The room was very big, but it was also full of people. At first glance, there were about seven or eight people, and there was actually a woman in her fifties who was quite older.

"Everyone, this is the head of the workshop and Mr. Zhao, the internal historian."

Qingliu introduced Zhao Jun to everyone without being humble or overbearing.

"Hello Mr. Zhao"

"Hi sir"

Soon everyone in the room responded respectfully.

Zhao Jun glanced secretly and said politely.

"Don't be restrained, everyone, you are a guest, everyone sit down, sit down and talk slowly."

She smiled and talked with the others, directed them to sit down, and finally told Qingliu to call for food.

The serving speed of this restaurant is very fast, and the fragrant food was brought up after a while.

It was the first time for these people to see fried dishes, and they glanced at the dishes on the table in secret surprise.

"This is stir-fried vegetables. Everyone talks while eating."

Zhao Jun didn't care about other people. She hasn't eaten yet, and she's already a little hungry. Let's fill her stomach first.

The others were attracted by the aroma, and it was time to eat, so they didn't say much, but just savored it with a smile.

Zhao Jun filled his stomach and watched everyone speak unhurriedly.

"I heard that you all want to buy paper from the workshop, right?"

When the others heard this, they knew that this was about to get to the point.

"Returning to your lord, yes, we heard that there is a new paper produced in Xianyang that is convenient for writing. We also went to the bookstore to see it when we came here. It was really shocking, so we wanted to buy some."

The older woman of the group spoke first.

"By the way, you see we haven't introduced ourselves to the adults." The woman smiled and said.

"I am a businessman from Qin State, and I am the widow Qing from Berkshire."

Ba Widow Qing, it turns out that she is the famous Ba Widow Qing in the history of Qin State.

The earliest female entrepreneur, the widow Qing who provided a large amount of mercury to the Mausoleum of the First Emperor!
