"This is definitely here to cause trouble!"
Jiang Liang slammed the newspaper with an angry look on his face.
I would have been happy to wake up in the morning. The sales of Yuguang Porcelain have been very good some time ago.
As a result, when I returned to the public house after the court meeting, I picked up the newspaper and the headline on the front page turned out to be Yuguang Porcelain from the Ministry of Industry.
[Junzi Meng scolded him for being indecent, and the people smashed the jade-glazed porcelain in shame. 】
The above content simply darkened Jade Light Porcelain to an extremely dark level.
It's as if after buying this Jade Light Porcelain, you become a villain who is greedy for money and treasure.
Everyone knows the sales situation of Banshan Daily in the capital, but they don’t talk about it.
Although Liubu now has newspapers, in order to maintain the dignity of the court, the use of words and dictionaries is extremely particular.
The degree of publicity among the common people is far less than that of Banshan Daily, which only uses vernacular Chinese.
If this continues, no one will dare to buy Yuguang Porcelain.
What will the people think if they find out? Do you still want the official voice?
Zeng Ping, the minister of the Ministry of Industry, put down the newspaper and said with a worried look: "Sir, if this continues... I'm afraid Fang Zhengyi will win."
"While Banshan Daily is doing its best to promote bicycles, it is also belittling our products."
"How to deal with this?"
Taking advantage of this moment, Jiang Liang also regained his composure and arranged: "Immediately arrange for the Ministry of Works to issue a clarification in tomorrow's newspaper."
"Send someone to the pawn shop in the capital to see if it has affected the sales of Yuguang Porcelain."
Naturally, the Ministry of Industry does not do business. If they want to compete in sales, they entrust famous pawn shops in the capital to sell them.
There are many dignitaries in those places.
Zeng Ping nodded and said: "Sir, over there with Fang Zhengyi..."
"Fang Zhengyi, please go and ask for me on my behalf. I want to talk to him personally. With such despicable methods, does he still have Da Jinglu in his eyes? This is slander! As the commander of the Jinyi Guards, he knows the law and breaks the law. If it really doesn’t work, I will go to His Majesty to take part in a copy of him, even if I confront him face to face!”
"Even if the Firearms Department of the Ministry of Industry is established later, he must not be allowed to establish some bullshit academy of science. Otherwise, where will the face of my Ministry of Industry go? Will Fang Zhengyi still extend his hand to the Ministry of Industry?"
Zeng Ping sighed: "Sir, if we had known this, we shouldn't have allowed him to compete again. We won last time."
Mentioning this matter, Jiang Liang also looked regretful: "Who knew that his methods were so despicable? But... it's not all good. At least the craftsmen sent by Taoyuan County are sincere in their work."
"It doesn't matter! There's no reason why Yuguangci can't beat a bicycle. Just go and invite him."
.......
There are huge crowds of people in front of the street bicycle experience point.
Fang Zheng and Li Yuanzhao were hiding in the crowd and observing the situation.
The experience point has started to sell bicycles, and there are many people who are interested in seeing the situation.
After all, it’s a multi-pronged approach and overwhelming publicity, but it’ll be damned if there’s no sales.
Basically, nine out of ten people who tried it out ordered one.
Most people pay more attention to the purchase qualifications of tricycles.
At this moment, the experience point is extremely hot. In addition to ordinary people, there are also a group of children gathered around, watching the Twister cars with envy.
One child was reluctant to leave, and the other child saw the opportunity and jumped into the car.
He twisted happily.
The child who had just finished playing said to his parents: "Mom, I want to buy a twist car!"
“How do you sell a twist car!?”
"Fifty taels a car, no negotiation."
"What! Are you crazy? Just fifty taels for a piece of broken wood?"
"Mom, I want to buy a twist car."
"Be obedient, we won't buy it."
"I want to buy it! I want to buy it!"
"Pah! Pah!" "Woooooooo~"
The parents led the crying child away, leaving Fang Zhengyi there in a silly mood.
Li Yuanzhao glanced at him contemptuously and said, "Old Fang, you are really nothing!"
Fang Zhengyi shrugged: "Your Highness, these are wonderful childhood memories. Those children will have to thank me in the future."
Li Yuanzhao curled his lips and said: "If nothing else, I think although this place is lively, people are only willing to buy it after a trial ride. If we continue at this rate, can we really beat the Ministry of Industry?"
"You must know that a porcelain vase of Yuguang Porcelain can be sold for hundreds of taels, and many high-ranking officials and nobles are not short of this amount of money."
"If a family buys just one or two bottles, they don't know how much money they have. If a bicycle is sold for five cents, the chance of winning is still slim."
Fang Zheng smiled and said: "Your Highness, don't be anxious. People are still worried about buying back and wasting it. But as soon as the first batch of goods is sold, everyone knows that this thing is simple and easy to use, and they won't have so many worries. Ten more days will pass One day, they are willing to buy it even if they don’t test ride it.”
"What's more, I haven't finished playing this card yet!"
"What other cards are there?" Li Yuanzhao became more energetic.
"Patriotic card!"
"???"
Seeing his confused face, Fang Zheng explained with a smile: "Part of the income from selling bicycles will be donated to poor people in other remote areas. Buying bicycles is charity. Even if it brings glory to the country, it is equivalent to the people giving their own savings." Yin De.”
This matter is still feasible in the Beijing area.
At the feet of the emperor, the income and education level are relatively high.
A lot of people donated money to Jianjiang when there was a food shortage in the capital before. Logically speaking, it should be feasible this time.
But in Da Jing... there are no foreign products, that's the problem.
Generally, this card can only be played by provoking confrontation.
However, Founder had a plan early on, and it would not be useful to copy it as it is, and it needs to be localized.
Therefore, an original Yin De model was added to the propaganda...
Using superstition to tell people to buy bicycles and donate money to the poor is equivalent to buying bicycles to accumulate negative virtue for themselves!
Even the temple and Taoist temple are preparing to send a group of people to station themselves to guide the propaganda.
Li Yuanzhao touched his chin and wondered, "Is this possible?"
"It works. Maybe some people will come to the sales point to bow and salute our bicycles!" Fang Zhengyi said with a smile, "I have already taught the newspaper about the subsequent publicity. Let's wait and see how they promote it."
"Where will the money from selling the bicycles be donated?"
"Taoyuan County."
"..."
Li Yuanzhao looked at Fang Zhengyi speechlessly and said, "Taoyuan County is considered a remote area, and there are still poor people?"
Fang Zheng coughed twice and said in a low voice: "Your Highness, it's propaganda... To be honest, can it still be called propaganda? Besides, this bicycle is sold at a discount, and the follow-up three-wheeled Chechnya is not going to make money. "
"It won't be long before someone will imitate bicycles or something like that on the market. I will stop doing it once the market is established, and leave the rest to the private sector for their own development."
Li Yuanzhao looked at the lively experience point, nodded thoughtfully and said, "Thank you for your hard work. You have many clever ideas, but I just thought of a way."
"What can I do?"
"Why don't we hold a bicycle race from the capital to Taoyuan County, and see who is faster, and the first place will be rewarded with one hundred taels of silver! I'll pay for it, what do you think?"
A trace of surprise flashed across Fangzheng's eyes, he stretched out his thumb and exclaimed: "High! Your Highness is so tall! Let's do it this way. When the first few batches are almost sold, let the people hold a competition and divide the prizes into three. Then the bonuses will be distributed. . I think we should also hold a modification competition to encourage the world's skilled craftsmen to improve bicycles, and give money to those who contribute."
Li Yuanzhao rolled his eyes and said happily: "This is a good idea!"
The two began to discuss continuously.
Not long after, a guard in royal robes suddenly appeared and approached the two of them.
Panting, he cupped his fists and said, "Your Highness, Mr. Fang! Someone from the Ministry of Industry has invited Mr. Fang to come and talk."
