Chapter 16 It's a pity
In private, Huang Dache sat on the couch, leaning against the desk, looking at the account book in his hand, and Du Shi explained on the side of the room.
Li Li fulfilled the agreement with Huang Dache and gave Du the idea to make money. The idea was indeed good, that is, to directly improve the mirror making process.
After the improved mirror making process, unprecedented bronze mirrors are made, which are resistant to falling and have significantly reduced production costs, so the profits are significantly increased.
"A new mirror costs 1,000 yuan, and you can earn at least 200 yuan... Now the store only sells itself, and can sell 300 bronze mirrors every month, which means you make a profit of 60,000 yuan, and there will be more in the future..."
"Li Li is indeed able to teach people how to fish."
Huang Dache pondered. He didn't know much about making mirrors, so he asked Du: "Where has this technology been changed?"
"No need to make a model, and..." Du said, laughing: "That's a new process he figured out by himself. It is said that he needs to use hydraulic power and what kind of stamping should be used..."
Huang Dache couldn't understand: "Singling duck? What kind of duck?"
Du smiled and shook his head: "It's a craft, and I didn't understand it very much at the beginning."
She used the model sent by Li Li to explain to Huang Dache what "stamping" is.
Two dough cakes, one white and one gray, are placed in a round concave area, and then the slightly smaller round dough cake is placed on the gray dough cake, and then use the "hydraulic hammer" to press it down with a force.
Therefore, the white bread is pressed into the gray bread, and the bottom of the gray bread is also pressed out of the protrusions (buttons) and patterns due to the pattern.
Then, there are push rods on the top, bottom, left and right of the concave band. Push forward hard, push the side wall of the gray-faced cake inward, push out four protrusions, and jam the white-faced cake.
In this way, the white bread is firmly embedded on the gray bread and grinding to become a smooth cake (mirror).
From the front, the edges of the cake surface (mirror) are gray, and are wrapped in a white circle.
Du explained: "The white surface is copper tin, the tin is about 20%, the gray surface is copper lead, and the lead is about 20%. Stamping depends on hydraulic power, and mirror making does not require modeling, saving a lot of costs."
"Of course, copper tin or copper lead is not that soft, so when stamping, you have to burn two pieces of dough to redness and become soft, so that's what happens..."
Huang Dache probably knew the particularity of the bronze mirror when casting it, and found it strange: "Impossible? When the two mirror materials are pressed together, will they not crack or crack when they become cold?"
"Didn't you say before that if the mirror material is not adjusted properly, it will be injected into the ceramic mold after melting. When it gets cold, the mirror will crack or have cracks and small holes."
"A single mirror material is so troublesome. If the two mirror materials are burned red and pressed together, will it be even more troublesome after they become cold?"
Du nodded, took out a roll of paper, and told Huang Dache about the key points written on it. Huang Dache saw that the roll of paper was very thick, so he waved his hand:
"Okay, okay, needless to say, you can just know."
Huang Dache didn't plan to dig deeper into the question. Since Du knew the craftsmanship, he would be relieved.
Li Li is indeed capable, just like helping the cat-catcher Peng, he taught people how to fish and helped him find a way out of the room.
It also relies on the magic weapon of quality and low price to make the Du Niang Mirror Store short of new mirrors. In order to prevent other companies from maliciously slandering, it also specially launched a low-priced "burial special mirror".
Not only did it avoid the new mirror being maliciously slandered, but it also opened up the financial path of "fury". During this period, families who held funerals inside and outside Poyang City have come to Du Niang Mirror Store to buy this special bronze mirror.
Li Li's workplace was also manufactured by the mirror shop to ensure the supply of mirror embryos.
Therefore, the income of Jingdian increased several times, which made Huang Dache look at the account books and felt unbelievable.
Moreover, Li Li also suggested that the Mirror Store and the Big Cat Peng Restaurant do not eat alone. Just as the Big Cat Peng Restaurant supplies fish paste to other Mirror stores, Du Niang provides new mirror embryos with mirror embryos to make a fortune together.
Huang Dache thought this method was good. After all, eating alone would easily attract jealousy. When he was alive, he could still shock the little ones, but when he left, Du and his mother had no backing.
Huang Dache knew that his legitimate wife and sons would not care about the life and death of the mother and the mother, so if Du could make money steadily through the mirror shop, he would have a support in the future.
Now, the strategy Li Li set for Jingdian is to "down the price" and follow the civilian route, and while taking the small profit but fast turnover, it will not make people think that they are getting rich and making money as low-key as possible.
Huang Dache put down his account book and sighed: "Li Li is really amazing. With this magic weapon in your mirror shop, you won't have to worry about the rest of your life, and I can leave with confidence."
"Don't say this, you will be fine." Du said, a little sad, Huang Dache didn't care: "It doesn't matter, my life is worth it."
"I have suffered many sins and committed many sins. Even if there is retribution, retribution will be retribution. I am not afraid. I was originally a cheap life that could live to this day, with all the children in the house, and you are with you by my side, it's worth it."
Although Huang Dache has more than one outer room, Du’s status in his heart is completely different. He is not a relative, but a benefactor.
Many years ago, Huang Dache was just a beggar in Poyang City. On New Year's Eve, a certain year, he was hungry and cold and was about to die on the street. A girl gave him a bowl of hot rice and an old velvet dress.
Many years have passed, and he has been considerate. He has kept the clothes well and still remembers the bowl of rice. He still remembers her: the little lady named Du, who makes mirrors at home.
Later, when he learned that the other party had become a widow and was driven away by his in-laws' family, his mother's brothers were not good to her, he found her.
So she became his outdoor room.
"What is Li Li's experience? So capable?" Du asked, but Huang Dache didn't know what to say. After thinking about it, he revealed something: "A few days ago, I heard from a friend in the county party that Li Li's family's official status had been cancelled."
Du exclaimed: "It's sold out? It's not easy."
"It's not easy. If you lose your official registration, you don't have to hide elsewhere, but stay in Poyang." Huang Dache murmured and began to think.
Generally speaking, the officials and families in prefectures, counties and counties need to be the commander of the corresponding public chief and the court allows the officials and families to be dismissed.
Or, if there are powerful people like the sect, the king and other powerful people, they will have to secretly come, buy officials and change their household registration secretly.
Huang Dache had connections in the county party committee. If you want to operate, you can help Li Li cancel his official registration, but he cannot stay in Poyang, so his whole family must move to the public and settle down in the local area with his nationality.
Because Huang Dache wanted to bribe officials in the public garrison and secretly change their household registration, he was shameless. But now, Li Li is a righteous and open-minded official registration and has become a good citizen of the household registration.
According to the news revealed by his county party friends, this incident originated from Jiankang, not Jiangzhou Prefecture Party, so it means that Li Li has noble people to help him.
It may be a noble person from Jiankang, or a noble person has connections in Jiankang.
After inference, Huang Dache felt that he had underestimated Li Li. Li Li could come up with a good idea for Du and could indeed make a lot of money, which means...
This shows that Li Li is indeed capable and has a lot of skills. It is just a trivial matter to fulfill the original agreement. This person not only knows how to make money, but also has a support.
When Du saw Huang Dache thinking about something, he expressed his opinion: "Li Li held a workshop in Baishi Village, and the mirror was done there."
"I think that Li Sanlang can help Big Cat Peng with ideas to make money. Then, he wants to make money himself, even if he is just selling fish hooks, he thinks he can make a lot of money, otherwise why would he do it?"
"Taking the bronze mirror as an example, I think he must have a way to reduce costs, so even if you sell fish hooks, you will make a profit, and the profit is quite good, at least not less than making a mirror."
Huang Dache pondered: "You mean..."
Du: "I think Li Li is really capable, so it's better..."
"No, he offended the Poyang Palace after all, and he will be in trouble sooner or later." Huang Dache fiddled with the teacup with one hand, and sighed with regret: "It's a pity that he is less than sixteen years old, and he has such ability..."
Du asked: "But he has a way to eliminate his official status... Maybe, aren't you really afraid that the people in the Poyang Palace will make things difficult?"
Huang Dache thought about it for a while, but still felt that Li Li would finish sooner or later, so it was really a pity.
While he was talking, a servant came to report that the mansion was the one who asked him to go back quickly, as if something was a big deal.
"Big thing? What big thing?" Huang Dache murmured, talked to Du for a while, and then went back quickly.
