Shenshi, Lantian County, Qinjiazhuang.
In the past few days, many strange faces have come to Qinjiazhuang.
They often linger near the Qin Mansion's greenhouse.
As soon as you see someone coming out of the greenhouse, you will follow them quietly, and then in a place with few people, ask them about the Qin Mansion's vegetable greenhouse.
Of course, they don't just rely on words. Most of the time, they spend money to buy some news about the vegetable greenhouses from the people who work in the greenhouses.
In addition, the Taiyuan Wang family has not sent anyone to the house to discuss and purchase methods of growing vegetables in the past few days.
There were other nobles who came to the Qin Mansion to pay their respects, but they were all rejected by the concierge because the master was not at home.
Among them are many aristocratic families and some Guanlong nobles.
In fact, Qin Ming had anticipated this situation after returning home.
If you think about it from another person's perspective, if you were Wang Gui or another aristocratic family, you would also have the idea of a vegetable greenhouse. We will also send more people to the village to inquire about the specific situation with the farmers working in the greenhouses.
Let alone the Tang Dynasty, even in later generations, there is no way to prevent following-the-trend production, piracy, and counterfeiting.
Chinese people are smart, this has never changed.
Moreover, the principle of the greenhouse is actually very simple. As long as he puts more thought into it, Qin Ming believes that he can always figure it out.
Therefore, Qin Ming has now basically given up the idea of selling the planting method to Wang to make a profit.
Through this incident, Qin Ming also reflected and reminded himself that there are too many smart people in the world and he cannot treat others as fools.
Fortunately, judging from the current situation, even if the Taiyuan Wang family or other families obtain planting methods, they will not be able to grow vegetables for a while.
At least the original intention of building a greenhouse to make a profit has been achieved.
Qin Ming now pays more attention to brewing workshops and other industries in the future.
This incident can be regarded as a reminder to Qin Ming that he should pay attention to the issue of industrial confidentiality.
The problem at the tea roasting workshop is easy to solve.
Firstly, Ximenglou has become famous now, and secondly, he has recently arranged for people to acquire some tea gardens around Chang'an City.
After spring begins, he will send people to the south to continue purchasing tea plantations.
Now even if other families have acquired the tea-frying technology, they can still ensure that their own interests are not damaged by blocking the way from the source of tea.
As for breweries and other industries, Qin Ming felt that we should start with some production equipment and try to cover up some important production links.
People who work like this don't know the specific production principles. Even if others ask about it in the future, they won't be able to explain it.
Also, he needs to invest more in the research institute so that they can continuously improve existing processes and technologies.
Another thing is to strengthen the security of the institute and the Qin Mansion.
Although no one has come to the house to steal these days, as the house's properties increase, it will be difficult to say in the future.
The matter of the new residence has to be put on the agenda, and the mass production of soap has to wait. Now that the Qin Mansion has a lot of business, it is time for him to put his time elsewhere.
If you want to make the industry bigger, relying on these people alone will definitely not be enough.
It seems that we still need to pay close attention to cultivating talents.
You still can't just think about making money, you also have to have a certain reputation in Datang.
If he had status and status in the Tang Dynasty, these aristocratic families would not poach his own family so blatantly.
And if you don’t want to be an official, you have to find a way elsewhere.
For example, regarding matters related to Qingbei Medical College and the hospital, several days have passed and Daochang Sun has not been seen. Qin Ming also felt a little guilty.
But we can't just wait for Daozhang Sun. It seems we have to think of other ways.
It’s better to arrange the things in front of you first.
Thinking of this, he asked his servants to find Qin Da and Li Chun.
After the two people came in, they saluted Qin Ming and said:
"Son."
Qin Ming looked at the two of them and smiled:
"Come, sit down."
After the two sat down, Qin Ming poured tea for them personally, and then he said to Li Chun:
"Manager Li, how is the construction of the soap workshop going recently? How many days will it take to complete it?"
Li Chun thought for a while and said:
"It will probably take about ten days to get back, Master."
"Well, try to speed up the progress as much as possible. After the workshop is built, you will need to build a new mansion and the campus of Qingbei University. For the brick kiln, ask them to build a few more kiln entrances."
Li Chun was overjoyed when he heard this. He finally came to work again. He asked excitedly:
"Sir, do you have the drawings of the school building and the mansion? If so, I can arrange for someone to lay the foundation first."
Qin Ming thought for a while and said:
"Well, I'll do as you say. I'll give you the drawings in the next two days. You go down and arrange the manpower first."
After hearing this, Li Chun stood up and saluted, and happily walked out of the study room. He was already eagerly hoping to arrive early tomorrow.
Because Qin Ming's designs are always unique, both the current settlement and the new soap workshop are very different from the current buildings.
Moreover, Qin Ming's drawings are very detailed. He has gradually come to like the feeling of turning drawings into physical buildings.
This also made him wonder what the new residence and Qingbei University campus would look like.
...
After Li Chun left, Qin Ming and Qin Da were the only two people left in the room.
Qin Ming looked at Qin Da, who was sitting on the sofa with a embarrassed look on his face, and smiled and said:
"Ada, there are two things you need to do."
Qin Da stood up after hearing this and said:
"Master, please give me your orders."
Qin Ming stood up, pressed his shoulders, asked him to sit down, and then said:
"Sit down first and don't be so impatient."
"The first thing you need to do when you go back is arrange for the escort to secretly follow those who were recently at the Zhuangzi inquiring about the greenhouse.
Whose family are they sent by? "
Qin Da laughed and said:
"Sir, we have sent people to follow. The results should be available tomorrow."
When Qin Ming heard this, he patted Qin Da and laughed:
"Yes, I want to go with the young master."
Qin Da was a little embarrassed by the young master's praise. He scratched his head and said:
"Sir, I didn't think of this."
"Who came up with that?"
Qin Avenue:
"It's that Zhang Wenyuan. He recently joined the first escort team. He is now mainly responsible for the security of the workshop and greenhouse area. It was he who suggested sending people to follow those outsiders today."
Qin Ming smiled and nodded when he heard this, and then said:
"Well, pay more attention to this boy in the future and focus on training him."
"Yes, sir."
Then Qin Ming's face turned cold and he looked at Qin Da Dao:
"Well, there is one more thing. You should do it as soon as possible. Tell the people who work in the mansion that from now on, they are not allowed to reveal the affairs of the mansion and the workshop to others. Once all the people who leak the secrets of the Qin mansion are discovered, anyone who follows All the family and friends he has connections with will be dismissed by the Qin Mansion and will never be hired."
Qin Da was a little embarrassed by Qin Ming's sharp eyes. This was the first time he saw the young master looking at him with such eyes.
But he agreed very much with what the young master said. After all, he also knew that most of the Qin Mansion's income now came from the greenhouse and two workshops.
But he thought for a while and said:
"Sir, would you like the person who leaked the information before..."
Qin Ming interrupted Qin Da’s next words and said:
"The Qin Mansion will let bygones be bygones for what happened before, but we must focus on these people in the future. At the same time, tell the people on Zhuangzi that if you find anyone who leaked secrets, you can report it. As long as it is verified to be true, the Qin Mansion will reward you with ten coins. From this incident on It’s up to you to take charge.”
Qin Da quickly stood up and said:
"Yes, sir, I will make arrangements right away."
After saying that, when Qin Ming nodded, he walked out of the study door.
