Mohist Tang

As the Confucian journals quietly increased their space, the originally declining sales volume gradually stopped.

After the Confucian journals current affairs news, there are a lot of advertisements. Although many people in Confucianism are dissatisfied with this, they can only pinch their noses when they think that Mohist Periodical is pressing harder and harder. admit.

In line with the hype of advertisements in Confucian journals, Aristocratic Familys shops have discounts and promotions to attract customers. Coupled with the large advertising fees paid to Confucian journals, profits have been reduced a lot. In the previous era of huge profits Gone forever.

However, the money of Aristocratic Family is not at all white flowers. Under the advertisement of Confucian magazine hiding the sky and covering the earth, the shop and workshop of Aristocratic Family gradually stopped the decline. After all, the real money is still Those elites who intensively study Confucianism are the main consumers of Great Tang.

Furthermore, Confucian journals also specifically singled out the low-quality problems of small workshops and advertised them in an effort to make the goods of the Aristocratic Family workshops high in price. Although Mohist Periodical is cheap, most of them are fake and inferior. Product phenomenon.

Aristocratic Family deliberately instructed its subordinates to purchase Mohist Periodical products, and even if they were deliberately damaged, they reported it in Confucian journals, destroying the reputation of small and medium-sized workshops.

Furthermore, after some people deliberately damaged the goods, they handed over papers to Ch_ng’n County and asked Mohist Periodical to compensate ten times the loss. Although these were all gone, they also made the city full of wind and rain. , So that the reputation of Mohist Periodical shopping and small and medium-sized workshops plummeted.

“Reporting to Your Majesty, Chang’an City, it is said that Mohist Periodical shopping for fake and inferior goods, once the market is exposed, it will surely let the people of Kwan Nei Road bury hidden dangers. Marquis of Mo is hard to say. Blame it.”

“Also, Marquis of Mo, for the sake of Mohist Village seeking instant benefit, but disregarding the safety of the people of the world.”

“Please also Your Majesty order a thorough investigation of Mohist. Periodical shopping allows people all over the world to use things that they can rest assured.”

After the Aristocratic Family and Confucian journals set off the wind and rain, the Imperial Censor of the Aristocratic Family even heard the wind, and one after another Impeach Mo Dun.

“Mo Dun, do you have any excuses!” Li Shimin did not have the habit of blocking guns for Mo Dun, and directly pushed Mo Dun to the front desk.

Mo Dun frowned, came forward and made his debut: “Replying to his Majesty, the goods on Mohist Periodical are not fake or inferior. Instead, they are cheap and cheap.”

“How fast and saving?” Yu Zhining snort disdainfully said, “In that case, what is going on with so many low-quality products on the market?”

“If there is a quality problem People can refuse to pay, not to mention that some goods can be exchanged within three months. Nowadays, Mohist Periodical shopping is implemented for only three months. This small official does not know why these people do not apply for exchange at all. Unless they were artificially damaged.” Mo Dun took a deep look at the Imperial Censors.

“Even if they are not counterfeit and shoddy products, these goods are produced in small workshops. The low-price competition of sloppy-work, Mohist Periodical has contributed to the flames. The entire Kannai business community is mourning, and the merchants are angry. This account Why should it be counted in Mohist Family?” Yu Zhining scolded angrily.

“Also, as soon as Mohist Periodical shopping and Kyoto Express came out, many shops in Chang’an City were closed down, and the merchants suffered heavy losses. What did Chancellor Mo say?” A group of Imperial Censors played, no matter what However, the closure of so many shops is indeed inseparable from the Mohist Periodical shopping, this is indisputable for Mohist Family Son.

Mo Dun was silent for a moment and said: “The closure of the shops in Chang’an City certainly has the impact of Mohist Periodical shopping, but it has nothing to do with the high rent and cost of living in Chang’an City. After all, Mohist Periodical No matter how cheap you shop, you will not sell at a loss. The merchants will also have a certain profit. The high rents and the hard-won cost of living in Chang’an City eat up all the profits of the merchants. This is all the business closures The reason.”

Yu Zhining hearing this frowned said: “Anyway, Mohist Periodical shopping is directly related to the closure of shops.”

“The business circle is like a battlefield, even if not For Mohist Periodical shopping, there will also be merchants going bankrupt. Not to mention, even with the size of Mohist Village, it is not a few times that it is on the verge of bankruptcy.” Mo Dun said without denying.

The officials of Five surnames Seven Clans suddenly looked embarrassed. Mohist Family couldnt get rid of them after several difficulties. What embarrassed them even more was that Mohist Family Son applied Art of War to commercial warfare and used them The falling flowers and flowing water.

“Business war!” Numerous officials nodded one after another. In the past few days, they have been eye-opening, technology wars, price wars, and market wars. Commercial warfare routines emerge in endlessly one after another, and it is even more enjoyable than Sandbox military exercises.

“Even so, the Mohist Family owes an explanation to the merchants in Chang’an City.” Yu Zhining made a strong argument.

Mo Dun had long expected: “What explanation is needed, but it is the survival of the fittest. Besides, Mohist Periodical shopping is not only an impact but not good for businesses.”

“hmph! Benefits Marquis of Mo, could it be a joke!” Yu Zhining taunted.

Many officials also laughed out loud. Mohist Family Son was too thick-skinned, and he ran out of other shops and closed down, even saying that it was beneficial.

Mo Dun explained: “You dont know that Mohist Periodical shopping is not only for ordinary people. There is also a merchant version. The merchant version publishes workshop prices. In the past, merchants often needed to go far to buy goods. It takes more than half a month to purchase goods for a few hundred miles. It also requires hiring manpower, carriage, and food, drink and lodging, which is not a small expense. With the Mohist Periodical Shopping Merchant Edition, merchants only need to book on Kyoto Express , Just sit in the store, and there will be Kyoto Express to deliver the goods to the store door, and it is direct from the manufacturer, the price is the lowest, the merchants cost is reduced, even if the price is reduced, it can benefit a lot.”

“Business version!” Numerous officials were stunned. They did not expect that Mohist Family would have this move. In this way, it is indeed beneficial to the merchants. In this era, the transportation is inconvenient and long-distance travel is not an easy task.

With the merchant version of Mohist Periodical shopping, merchants can save two weeks of practice every time they purchase goods. Compared with the cost on the way, the little shipping cost of Kyoto Express is almost negligible.

“The price is the lowest, shouldn’t it be the inferior goods of poor quality!” Yu Zhining taunted.

Mo Dun looked all around and proudly said: “In this world, high prices do not mean good goods. The price is determined by the labor time the workers spend on the goods.”

“Working hours determine the price. Marquis of Mo is joking?” Suddenly, many numerous officials were astonished. They were the first time they heard about it, and they doubted.

Mo Dun looked at the misty Great Tang elite, and suddenly a sense of superiority emerged: “If you don’t believe it, after listening to this Mozi’s secret story, it may be a little clear. “

“Mozi is close!” Numerous officials hearing this could not help but listen. They may have some opinions about Mohist Family Son, but none of them questioned Mozi, especially the fire Mozi’s closeness is more thought-provoking. It is quite expectant, but it is a pity that Mohist Family Son reveals a little bit like squeezing toothpaste.

Mo Dun said loudly: According to legend, when Mozi was a teenager, he didnt like to read. He often threw bamboo rolls and went to play. One day a teenager Mozi met a gray-haired old woman by the river. Sitting on the low stool on the grinding blade stone, holding a thick iron pestle in her hand, grinding the grinding blade stone up and down, with a focused expression, even if the young Mozi looked at her for a long time, she did not notice.

Young Mozi asked: “Old lady, what are you doing? “

“Grinding the needle! “The old woman replied without raising her head, and still earnestly grinds the iron rod in her hand.

Young Mozi is surprised: “But you are holding a huge iron rod with a small needle. , Can such a thick iron pestle be ground into a needle? “

While grinding, the old woman said: “Yes, the iron rod is thick and big. It is very difficult to grind him into a needle, but I keep grinding it every day. One day, I will It is ground into embroidery needles. “

The young Mozi was deeply touched, and said: “As long as the skill is deep, the iron rod can be ground into a needle, and this is how things in the world are. “

So the teenager Mozi worked hard, and finally created the Mohist Family, and became the sons of Hundred Schools of Thought.”

“As long as the skill is deep, the iron rod will be ground into a needle!”

As soon as this statement came out, the entire Imperial Court numerous officials suddenly fell silent. They are in a high position, and naturally they understand this sentence better than others. They can occupy a high position not because of natural luck, but more than The ordinary person put in too much effort and eventually grinds the useless iron pestle into embroidery needles.

“Mozi’s great wisdom, I deeply admire it.” Li Shimin said with emotion.

The others were nodded, and Mozi did not disappoint them again.

“This statement can certainly inspire the world’s students to work hard!” Kong Yingda sighed, until now, Confucius’s words and deeds have always been the models for the world’s students to imitate, but Mozi’s words are no less than Confucius.

“Many thanks for your recognition of Mohist Family, Mozi’s feelings are indeed beneficial, but there is another feeling underneath.” Mo Dun sighed, “In the age of Saint Mozi, embroidery needles should have Its so expensive that the old lady will not hesitate to grind the needles with an iron pestle.”

“How expensive are the embroidery needles!” Numerous officials couldn’t help but stunned, and they scolded Mo Dun with their eyes. Feeling interrupted, one is work hard, extremely inspirational, the other is copper stinks everywhere, extremely indecent, it is simply worlds apart, so that everyone’s heart responds.

“Mo Bian once said that everything can be divided into two to look at the problem, youngster’s view is not at all wrong, and we are not discussing high prices.” Mo Dun weakly looked at the group of officials Unkind eyes said.

Only then did the ministers remember that they were discussing the price issue, but they were even biased by Mozi.

“As you can imagine, it takes several years for an old woman to grind into an embroidery needle, and the price of at least a hundred words is probably not an exaggeration!” Mo Dun said loudly.

The ministers were silent, and if it took a person for three years, paying her a hundred dollars is already extremely cheap.

“Great Tang’s forging technology is extremely mature. As far as the casting needle is concerned, the best blacksmith can forge 80 pieces a day, so now the price of Great Tang’s embroidery needles is a penny. “

Qunchen’s heart moved. According to Mo Dun, it is true that the less time it takes to manufacture goods, the cheaper the goods are.

“One penny, the price before then.” An Imperial Censor coldly snorted and said, he happened to have heard his wife and daughter Xizi zi said that the price of embroidery needles has dropped sharply. Up.

Mo Dun nodded and said: “This adult is right. The price of embroidery needles has dropped significantly because the needle casting workshop adopts Mohist Family’s latest Mohist Technology and assembly line production. One thousand needles can be made. Let alone one penny, ten penny, those workshops are not at a loss!”

“A thousand needles!” Everyone took a deep breath and had to Said that Mohist Family Mohist Technology has become a decisive factor in prices. In recent years, Great Tang’s prices have generally fallen, which is directly related to the wide application of Mohist Technology.

“You adults can imagine that an old woman who grinds an embroidery needle in a few years is worth at least a hundred words. An ordinary workshop can make 80 needles a day, and an embroidery needle is worth a penny, while a workshop using Mohist Technology Thousands of needles can be made a day, and ten can be bought for a penny. It can be seen that the less time I spend on manufacturing goods, the cheaper the price. It is not good for high-priced items, but low-priced goods are of poor quality.”

A group of Imperial Censor looked at each other in blank dismay, so that they will not lose to anyone else, but these economics knowledge, they are all confused and indistinguishable.

Only Dai Zhou took a deep look at Mo Dun. Numerous officials thought that Mozi felt that as long as the skill is deep and the iron rod is ground into a needle, it is a famous saying, which contains great knowledge.

But he believes that Mohist Family Son understands from this story that labor time determines the price, and its intelligence is not lost to Mozi, and no one of the numerous officials at the scene is aware of this.
