"Gong!" Jiang Li raised his hand coolly to stop his opponent Ding Kui from touching the cards, and then reached out to touch the last card in the pile. "The card is twenty thousand, hahaha, what a fool!" He collected all the cards in front of him.
Push it down on the table.BiquΩ Δ
Long Kun said with a dark face: "You don't have Jiangxi's 20,000 yuan but you come to attack my Dongfeng. What's the point? Are you Jiang brothers uniting to bully others?"
Jiang Xi pushed his cards into the pile, rubbed them randomly a few times, and then said: "If he wants to take my 20,000 yuan, it's just a little kid, but it's completely different if he takes your Dongfeng, and besides, there are so many things on the table."
I hit one for 20,000, and asked him to wait for three more. He will hit the three Dongfeng whoever touches the east wind in his hand. If you hit them like this, you will get the right one."
Ding Kui looked at the three elders on the mahjong table, and there were ten thousand grass-mud horses galloping in his heart: These three learned so fast. They just played all night yesterday, and today's level has improved to such an extent. It's too scary.
.
The first set of mahjong tiles appeared in the world of Shenyuan, and only a few people could play it. Of course, Ding Kui had the highest level. However, Ding Kui's highest level only lasted for one night, and he was defeated by three elders the next day.
Falling flowers and flowing water.
"Huh, that's it for today. Next time I'll find help. I'll take this deck of cards with me so that you two won't practice secretly at home." Long Kun was having bad luck and decided to call a truce.
"Hahaha, Long Kun, Long Kun, we have been working together for more than ten years. Don't I still know your virtues? Can you give this card back?" Jiang Xi said sarcastically.
"Isn't this little fire jade a big deal in the eyes of your old Jiang family? Tomorrow I will ask the craftsman to make ten or eight pairs of rosewood gold ones for you." No one knows the craftsman and has access to high-end materials.
Unlike Long Kunduo, it is normal to do some private work in the equipment department.
"Brother Long has already spoken, let him take it back." Jiang Li tapped the table with his right index finger, and the mahjong tiles on the table jumped one by one into the wooden box beside the table, "The thing is Kui'er
Whatever you come up with, don't let others copy it first, wait until Kui'er figures out a trick."
"I know this even if you don't tell me. I just want to take it back and let the craftsmen see how to improve the difficulty of making it." How could Long Kun be so unsure when he came to Jiang Mansion for two consecutive days.
"Seeing how quickly you got started, a few more sets of mahjong can be promoted faster, but we must firmly occupy the dominant position so that people in the future will think of us when they play mahjong."
Mahjong is very easy to imitate. You can just draw it on paper and use it as playing cards. The threshold is very low. Ding Kui does not want to completely eliminate counterfeit goods. The key is to make a fuss about the leading trend.
"You set the rules, how to play. Everyone will learn from you in the beginning. It's hard to predict what will happen in the future. I think you can make a lot of money just by selling Tinder Jade Mahjong in the capital.
First of all, the mahjong tiles are rare items that have never appeared before and cannot be bought anywhere else. With the fire jade and the careful craftsmanship of senior craftsmen, it is reasonable to sell them for one thousand gold coins, right?"
When Jiang Li said this, everyone present nodded.
"Gong Wei and I lead the upper class nobles to play mahjong, and the middle and lower nobles will surely imitate the game. With the businessmen clinging to the powerful, it shouldn't take long to sell a thousand pairs.
During the engagement ceremony, Kui'er gave the king a pair of the highest quality mahjong. At that time, everyone knew that the mahjong was made by Kui'er, and only our products were authentic.
If you don't want this mahjong to be imitated, you can work hard on patterns, fonts and unique marks. Materials are easy to find, but skilled craftsmen are hard to find, and it is not easy for others to mass-produce it," he continued.
"What my uncle said makes sense. This card can be carved with dark patterns. Only those who are familiar with dark patterns can figure out what the card is without looking at the face." Ding Kui drew inferences and broadened his mind.
Long Kun picked up a mahjong tile, touched the surface with his thumb, and said: "Interesting, this is also a way to play. Dark pattern carving is very labor-intensive, and the equipment department happens to have several senior craftsmen who are good at this, and they brought them out
The disciples are qualified for the job."
The Long family was not the first to understand Mahjong, nor was it the first to create it. If Long Kun wanted to get a share of the mahjong business, it would be hard for him to do so without making some contribution.
"Let the two principalities worry about doing business. Kui'er will feel uneasy if there are gossips in the future." Ding Kui looked ashamed.
"Haha, I'm just talking here. Each family has its own industry. How can we support a large family without doing business? The specific arrangements will be done by the deacons who manage the industry. We need to control the direction.
Taking care of a new thing will not lower our status. How many patriarchs of a family with thousands of years of history can do a new thing? That is equivalent to the king's achievements in expanding his territory. To be honest, Duke Wei and I are both greedy." Jiang
Li knew that Ding Kui had gone astray.
This cannot be blamed on Ding Kui's lack of knowledge. The Ding family is not much different from the run-down little nobles. They have no territory, few clan members, and very little family property. Ding Qi has been absent for a long time, and now even Ding Kun is not staying at home.
"Haha, I made a joke to everyone. It's just that there is no long-term profit from selling tiles. Fire jade is resistant to wear and tear. A pair of mahjong tiles can be passed down from generation to generation. The total demand is limited. This mahjong can become a long-term entertainment for people.
Options will not be popular for a while and then no one will care about them. If you want to make enough profits, you need to make a fuss around them.
It takes four people to play mahjong, and the number of participants is no more than no less. It is an excellent way to organize a gathering of close friends. There are many things to talk about at the mahjong table, so home is not the only option for playing mahjong. You can create a place artificially, a
A place with high privacy, high comfort and high convenience." Ding Kui came up with his core idea.
"Oh? You mean a place similar to a restaurant?" Long Kun roughly understood what Ding Kui meant.
"More or less, we can also provide meals, tea and wine. We also provide a unified carriage to take guests home, so guests don't have to park their own family's carriage at the entrance of the venue. This way, the privacy will be much higher." Ding Kui even paid attention to the details.
Have thought about it.
"It can be used for leisure and entertainment, and it can be used for discussing business. It is also the first store of a new business. The Jiang family has done this." Jiang Xi made the decision immediately.
"What did you do? I'm still here. Kui'er, come to Long's house tomorrow and your grandpa will talk to you." Long Kun was unhappy.
"How about this, Ding, Jiang, and Long families do it together. You can run Anguo County and Weiguo County separately, and everyone else should share it equally. How about it?" Ding Kui knew that it was not suitable for anyone to do it alone, and he didn't have the ability to do it alone.
If you have the strength to monopolize it, you might as well run it in partnership.
"Okay, Jiang and Long will provide money, people, and connections. Kui'er will be responsible for coming up with ideas. The three of us will work together to build the first store in the capital."
Jiang Li had actually discussed this with Ding Kui a long time ago, otherwise Jiang Xi would not have said this in front of Long Kun. He really wanted to rule out the need for the Long family to call people from the Long family.
"I heard that you are going to attend the auction tomorrow?" After talking about business, Jiang Li started talking about Ding Kui's personal affairs.
"Yes, Kui'er wants to take a look. If there are some things that are not expensive, consider buying them."
"Well, get in touch with young people in the capital more, and you will often deal with them in the future. Do you have enough money? Not enough to reach Jiang Nai's point." Jiang Li knew a little about Ding Kui's family background, but he also knew that the Ding family had spent money recently.
More.
"Yes, if you don't have money, you can tell me that the son-in-law of the Long family must not be shabby." Long Kun was not to be outdone.
"Haha, Kui'er has made a lot of money recently and has a lot of money. My father once told me that he has already prepared the officiant for the engagement. I don't need to buy anything expensive. I won't spend much money at the auction. No.
You beat me more at the mahjong table than you guys." Ding Kui said with a wry smile.
"A third elder of the Senate and a commander-in-chief of the staff, all I can say to bet money with them is give them away." Long Kun and Ding Kui had the same problem.
"Come on, come on, there's still some time for you to appeal." Jiang Xi reached for the wooden box containing the mahjong.
"Farewell!" Long Kun stood up and left.
"Kui'er dropped by to see my father-in-law." Ding Kui had no intention of fighting anymore, so he chose the thirty-sixth strategy, leaving the Jiang brothers watching behind with smiles.
At noon on August 5th, the Lu Chamber of Commerce Shaodianguo headquarters was extremely busy. The auction will be held on time at one o'clock after the luncheon.
Lu's Chamber of Commerce is very considerate and has specially prepared a luncheon to take care of the buyers who come from afar. Buyers from the capital can also take this opportunity to communicate with acquaintances and avoid bidding against each other for the same thing. No one is willing to pay more.
Some money is not.
Ding Kui had notified Yang Mian before that if Yang Mian didn't call too many friends, they could come to his VIP room. He also invited Long Shuang and Kong Ren to attend the auction, so that they could sit and chat together even if they didn't buy anything.
Chat and teach them how to play mahjong.
As usual, Hua Nuan drove Ding Kui to Lu's Chamber of Commerce. This time, he only brought one more person, He Guangsheng, to let the little guy see the world, and secondly, He Guangsheng was familiar with his friends and could pick him up at the door.
People enter the VIP room.
"Guang Sheng, wait at the door now. When Mr. Long, Mr. Kong and Mr. Yang arrive, take them inside. Don't let them be stopped at the door because they don't have an invitation letter." Ding Kui was afraid that He Guangsheng would be shocked by such a lively scene.
Come on, forget all the important things.
"How about I wait with Guangsheng?" Hua Nuan seemed to be seeing such a lively scene for the first time.
"Okay, don't cause trouble, but if someone provokes you, you must not give in. Remember, you are losing my face."
"Master Ding, the people here today are all distinguished people, all distinguished guests of the Lu Chamber of Commerce. The headquarters is closely guarded by Chamber of Commerce guards, so nothing will happen to you. Please come here and I will guide you."
Dong Song, who had been waiting in front of the door for a long time, came over quickly when he heard what Ding Kui said.
"Am I the first to come? Didn't you bring other distinguished guests in?" Ding Kui asked as he walked.
"Haha, you are so good at predicting things. You are the first distinguished guest to arrive today." Dong Song said with an apologetic smile.
