Datang: My apprentice is Li Chengqian

Chapter 155 The Slowly Recovering Datang

Thanks to the construction of the new palace, Chang'an City was originally a bit depressed, but immediately changed a lot.

The people also slowly felt the changes in their lives.

The consumption desire of nobles has also become stronger.

The most direct manifestation is that the business of many shops in West Market has become more prosperous than before.

"Lang Jun, this is the bronze mirror we just arrived yesterday, all of which are carefully selected and of high quality.

In the entire West Market, there is no one whose bronze mirror is clearer than ours.

So even if the price is more expensive, I think it should be able to sell well. "

Standing beside Gao Jin, Gao Peng smiled obsequiously while introducing the situation in the shop.

The Bronze Mirror is an important source of income for the Gao family. Although Gao Jin is not yet in charge of the family, Gao Shilian has already let him get in touch with the family's property.

For these nobles, although they despise businessmen verbally, they suppress the status of businessmen.

But in practice, every household has its own shop and workshop.

For example, the Gao family, the bronze mirror workshop and the shop belong to the existence with the highest market share in Datang.

"These bronze mirrors do look quite clear. It's not an exaggeration to sell a bronze mirror for a hundred bucks."

Standing in front of a bronze mirror, Gao Jin carefully examined his handsome figure.

Copper is money these days.

Bronze mirrors are entirely made of pure copper, so the price is naturally very high.

Fortunately, this thing itself is not prepared for ordinary people, so whether it is one hundred guan or two hundred guan, it has nothing to do with ordinary people.

"This time we have prepared hundreds of bronze mirrors at one go, and if we can sell all of them, we can at least earn tens of thousands of coins.

At that time, we can consider opening a few more bronze mirror shops in Jiangnan Road. "

Although Gao Peng is now only in charge of the business of the bronze mirror shop in the West Market, as a domestic slave of the Gao family, he naturally hopes that his business can spread all over the world.

Maybe Gao Jin will let him take charge of all the bronze mirror business of the Gao family.

"Well, for such a good mirror, we need to publicize it well, and don't be reluctant to spend money. Anyway, the wool comes from the sheep, and the money we spend in the end must be earned back from these customers.

Isn't that "Datang Daily" very popular?Then we'll pay to advertise there.

Anyone who buys bronze mirrors from our shop will return it within seven days if they are not satisfied! "

Gao Jin looked around at the bronze mirrors in front of him, obviously very confident in their quality.

These days, when people buy things, as long as they don't encounter real quality problems, few people go back to return the goods.

So in Gao Jin's view, the slogan of his family is more of a slogan.

A slogan to convey to consumers the excellent quality of their bronze mirrors.

"No problem, I'll go to the "Datang Daily" later to see if I can take down all the advertisements in the past few days."

My husband has already spoken, so Gao Peng naturally has no doubts, and is immediately ready to start promoting the bronze mirror.

Although it costs money to advertise in newspapers, even if the final income is a little less, as long as the sales increase, that's fine.

For a shopkeeper like Gao Peng, the size and sales of the shop are what he cares most about. As for the income, it is just the icing on the cake.

This is similar to the state-owned enterprises of later generations. The leaders are most concerned about the scale.

Of course, in the case of expanding scale, if the income can improve, that would be great.

Once people are asked to choose a development focus from scale and income, the leaders of state-owned enterprises will definitely choose scale.

Although Gaoji Bronze Mirror Shop is not a state-owned enterprise, for a shopkeeper like Gao Peng, such a shop is similar to the nature of state-owned enterprises in later generations.

……

"Your Majesty, I heard that the construction progress of the new palace is faster than everyone expected?"

In the imperial study room, Empress Changsun came to Li Shimin with a bowl of chicken soup.

In order to prove that he is the most suitable person to be the emperor, Li Shimin has been working hard since he ascended the throne.

For ordinary officials, there is a rest day every month.

But for Li Shimin, it is 360 five days a year, and he is busy every day.

Busy during the day and busy at night.

Although the focus of being busy may vary.

So in the afternoon, Empress Changsun would often come to the imperial study with some chicken soup in person, so that Li Shimin would have time to rest.

"Well, Xiedao, this guy actually fired a good thing called cement. I have personally confirmed the firmness of the concrete. It is really the best thing for laying the ground and building beams and columns.

In this way, the construction of the palace can save a lot of giant wood, not only save a lot of money, but also greatly reduce the difficulty and time of building the palace.

Now it seems that the possibility of completing the construction of the new palace this winter is really not non-existent. "

Li Shimin was quite interested when he heard Empress Changsun talk about the new palace.

The faster the new palace is built, the happier Li Shimin will be.

At that time, I won't have to stay in the East Palace so aggrieved to work.

"When it comes to unconstrained ideas, no one in Chang'an City can compare to Qin Dalang. During this time, I heard that there are even fewer beggars in Chang'an City, and all of them have been recruited to work in Datang Construction Engineering.

As long as you work hard, you can have fish to eat.This condition of having fish and meat every day has completely settled the hearts of countless refugees and beggars. "

Although Empress Changsun said that she never interfered in political affairs.

But as a queen, how could she not understand any political affairs?
"Well, so many censors have impeached Xiedao to propose a new palace construction plan, and I almost can't stand the pressure.

Especially which Wei Zheng almost didn't compare Zhen with King Zhou of Shang.

Fortunately, judging from the current situation, the imperial court did not spend a penny, but the palace was already under construction.

The most important thing is that all the refugees now have satisfactory arrangements, which is very rare. "

Li Shimin is still a person who knows things, and it is very difficult to know what kind of things to solve.

Obviously, it is absolutely as difficult as reaching the sky to resettle refugees and find jobs that satisfy them.

Just like the resettlement households of later generations, if you want to find a satisfactory job, the conditions in all aspects are even better. How can it be so easy?

"Facts have proved that even Wei Zheng sometimes misunderstood. If this situation continues to develop in the direction predicted by Xie Dao, then not only will the court not spend more money, but also because of the construction of the new palace, the business of a bunch of workshops will be reduced. It's booming."
