Chapter 8: Step by step is the best policy

No eloquence.

Lu Wu even had to pay attention to his words and use, avoid speaking a few words that the nobles could not understand, and gave a large number of explanations.

But even if he is careful, there are still many words that are not available now. If he speaks them, he will inevitably be asked questions and explain them one by one.

Sometimes, the process of explaining a new word will require more words to be explained, which makes Lu Wu very tired.

How were the other nobles, there was no indication.

Wei Xiang is the person in charge of negotiations and questions. He would always say some words to Lu Wu that he had never heard of before, and nodded frequently after listening to the explanation.

"Wu is strange." Han Wuji smiled helplessly and said, "There are so many slangs, so weird."

This is an era of different pronunciations and different speeches in ten miles.

They were surprised by Lu Wu's words that had never been heard before. If they didn't think about it deeply, they would think that it was the unique vocabulary of each region, just like Han Wuji.

They generally understood Lu Wu’s idea.

Some of the techniques used in large iron pots will be dedicated to Wei's family, and then Lu Wu will engage in catering with Wei's family by investing in the "patent" of the iron pot.

"Sure." Wei Xiang pretended to stop and thought for a while, and then said, "I'm the master of you."

He had already seen with his own eyes that Lu Wuhui cooked a lot of dishes. If he wanted to do catering, he would not make much money. He needed to send a chef (called Ku Ding at this time) to learn the dishes of Lu Wuhui.

Lu Wu agreed immediately.

He took the opportunity to make some requests, such as whether he could get the help of Wei Xiang when he was transporting pottery to sell it.

It was Wei Prime Minister, not Wei Family.

Lu Wu did not have the qualifications to let the entire Wei family endorse him.

Wei Xiang asked, "Wu, also made pottery?"

When they were serving the dishes just now, they saw a lot of novel styles of pottery, but in fact they had already had questions in their hearts.

Lu Wu used the same set of words he liked to think about, and vaguely exposed them.

Han Wuji smiled and said, "Shi Shi should not be humiliated."

The turmoil in Jin State that the Zhao family was destroyed had not yet completely subsided, and the eight ministers occupied the second one, the Zhao family, was destroyed.

There were originally twelve nobles in Jin State. After a bloody battle between the nobles to replace the nobles, Duke Jing of Jin adjusted the nobles to only eight nobles.

Shi Xie was one of the winners of that battle and was promoted to General of the Army.

He was named Qi, and the reason why he was called Shishi was that some of his ancestors became the judging (judge) of Jin. His son took the official as his surname and his descendants were called Shishi. Later, due to changes in position and his fiefdom, he was divided into three branches: Liu, Fan and Yushi.

Therefore, Shi Xie is just a title of chasing his ancestors, and is usually a member of the Fan family. (After his death, he was named "Wen", and was known in history as Fan Wenzi)

The position of General Shi Xie was very prominent, and the Fan family was also an insurmountable mountain in Jin State that wanted to sell or were selling pottery.

Han Wuji just ate a meal from the old Lu family and was extremely satisfied with it, otherwise he would have been too lazy to remind him.

The affairs of the senior officials of Jin State were not something that the little nobleman Lu Wu should get involved. He didn't want to provoke the big nobles now, but just wanted to improve the family's financial difficulties.

Lu Wu hurriedly said that the number of pottery sold would not be large, and he would not go to some big cities to sell it.

His current idea is to go to some villages to sell them first to see if he can make the porcelain out and then take the high-end luxury route.

Wei Xiang thought about it carefully and replied, "Yes."

Lu Wu, who achieved his goal, no longer made any requests, and did not even ask how to allocate shares.

It was just because he knew a lot about the ancient aristocrats that he would not come out to take care of those "trivial matters" in person. It should be the family manager (now a retainer) who fought for it.

Otherwise, the nobles would blush and not talk about it if they went to fight in person. If they were not good-looking, it would be embarrassing to spread it.

Han Wuji and several nobles didn't want to move until they were eaten.

Wei Xiang, who had many questions, invited Lu Wu to go out for a walk and digest food.

As for Lao Zhuo, the old Lu family, he found an opportunity to choose the important gifts brought by Wei and tell Lu Wu about them.

"Master?" Lao Zhuo was both happy and distressed, and asked, "(Reply)?"

Chinese etiquette emphasizes that when you receive a gift, you should give it a return gift.

For example, many of the little nobles in the old Lu family are very poor, let alone compared with the Wei family.

But Lu Wu said: "No need to give it back."

When he went to Lucheng Da Iron Pot, he taught the craftsmen some new skills in vain?

Technology has been dedicated to Wei.

In addition to iron pot technology, some forging techniques are not technology?

Therefore, the gift from Wei to the old Lu family was a return gift.

Of course, technology is more expensive than those gifts, but its status is unequal, so it can only be like that.

Therefore, the old Lu family can accept those things with peace of mind and no need to prepare any gifts for them.

The old man from the family got the answer and left happily.

Wei Xiang, who was standing aside and watching the whole journey, came over after Lao Zhuo left, pointed to the building he had not seen when he came before, and asked, "Why is it fast?"

It’s not a big deal to build a house with huge manpower and material resources.

It took the old Lu family eight days to prepare all the materials needed, but also built more than 30 houses, which really shocked Wei Xiang.

Wei Xiang felt that even though the old Lu family had prepared materials for building a house, the speed of building a house would be too fast.

Now is an era of lack of vocabulary, which is destined to have the limitation of the theoretical system.

Lu Wu thought about it and talked about the very rough management science.

We first start with the qualities of the person we want to use, take what kind of appointments we should do, and then explain the reasons for how to organize them. We provide necessary guidance during the process, and then mention what kind of incentive methods to adopt.

Wei Xiang did not interrupt the whole process. When Lu Wu stopped, he began a question of "100,000 Whys".

In fact, even if Wei Xiang didn't have so many problems, Lu Wu would create opportunities to guide him.

The Spring and Autumn Period was an era when there was relatively no ceiling in identity. The premise was that they had enough talent, and they also had to know how to connect and socialize, and had a pair of eyes that were not blind. (Confucius's father was a white man. When he attacked the city, he carried a gate to the gate to allow the defeated army to have time to evacuate, and was appreciated and promoted to a nobleman)

Of course, Lu Wu must properly show his talents and control a bottom line that is less than the "stunning" level in order to gain more appreciation.

He took a few steps to let Wei Xiang discover his talents, which was a natural transition, not a sudden shock.

The Wei family, who is in the rising period, has a family environment that will determine that they will give more respect to talented people, and they want to recruit them; they will not kill them like old conservatives, who are not from their own families.

Wei Xiang's words "Can you be an official?" proved Lu Wu's adventure and achieved success.

"It's not as good as the crown." Lu Wu did not refuse, but just talked about his age, and said heavily: "Let's wait for the future!"

Nearly a month, Lu Wu was not breathing in the spring and autumn eras.

He learned from Lao Zhuo, who had little knowledge, that he had to have a way to climb up.

And this approach is to be appreciated by the great nobles and provide positions.

Simply put, it is not just Jin State, but all countries. They control this and that. The only way for the people below to make progress and get the opportunities they provide is.

This "only" includes everything, even if you go to the battle, let alone get some positions.

Now what Lu Wu wants to do is to make the family's current situation better and build his own "base".
