After coming out of Gewuyuan, Zhao Ning's head was buzzing.

He did not return to the palace immediately, but walked outside for a while.

The snow is getting heavier and heavier, and there are no people on the streets.

Zhao Ning truly feels the technical progress pressure brought by basic standards.

He thought for a while and decided to use his limited brain to rewrite a standard of weights and measures when he went back.

This standard of weights and measures does not need to be vigorously promoted. It can be used in Gewuyuan and some special manufacturing yamen.

As a time traveler, the weights and measures I wrote are of course those of later generations. After all, they have been verified by human civilization for hundreds of years.

As we were walking, a rather familiar voice suddenly came from behind: "Guan Zhao."

Zhao Ning turned around and looked around, only to see a clear and elegant figure standing in front of her, holding an oil-paper umbrella, reflecting in the white snow world, like a beautiful painting.

It turned out to be Qian Jinshu.

"Guan Zhao, what a coincidence, we met here."

Zhao Ning raised his head and realized that he had reached the vicinity of Fan Tower.

"Yes, what a coincidence, we meet again."

"Is Mr. Zhao coming to Fanlou to drink tea?"

"Oh, yes." Zhao Ning replied casually.

"Guan Zhao, please come this way."

"Miss Qian, please."

The two entered the Fan Building and found a private room to sit down. The stove was burning brightly and the boy brought in some dried fruits.

"My little lady, I still want to thank Mr. Zhao for the introduction last time." Qian Jinshu said politely, "I owe Mr. Zhao a big favor."

"It doesn't matter." Zhao Ning said with a smile, "By the way, have you started preparations in Hangzhou?"

"Preparations have begun."

"Do you have a sea ship?"

Qian Jinshu said: "We thought of a way ourselves and asked someone to build it in Hangzhou."

Oops, Zhao Ning couldn't help but sigh in his heart, this capable person is reliable in doing things, so let him worry less.

"By the way, how does Mr. Zhao know Taiwei Wang?"

Zhao Ning was slightly startled and said, "Oh, we also cooperate."

"I see."

Qian Jinshu didn't ask further questions.

Not long after, another man suddenly came in.

This man was dressed in a long dark green coat and mink fur, and was dressed noble and elegantly.

His eyes fell on Qian Jinshu: "Ms. Qian is really here."

"Guan Li."

"Ms. Qian, I have something important to discuss with you."

Qian Jinshu said: "I'm afraid it's not very convenient now."

Li Qing looked at Zhao Ning who was standing aside. Zhao Ning stood up and said, "If you have something important to do, I won't bother you."

Qian Jinshu said quickly: "Guan Zhao, it's okay. In fact, I also have something important to ask you."

Li Qing frowned and said, "Then let's talk together?"

With that said, he sat down and called the boy to add dried fruits and tea to him.

Before Zhao Ning and Qian Jinshu could speak, Li Qing said: "Ms. Qian, on behalf of the Tokyo Chamber of Commerce, I am here to invite you to join."

"You just go to my brother. I am a weak woman and not suitable."

"Brother Qian is not in Tokyo, so I came to discuss it with you."

Qian Jinshu said: "Then we will discuss it after he comes back."

Now everyone knows that the Qian brothers and sisters have Wang Taiwei behind them. Wang Taiwei is in charge of the Taifu Temple Yamen. For a time, there is an endless stream of businessmen who want to cooperate with the Qian brothers and sisters.

When Zhao Ning heard about the Tokyo Chamber of Commerce, he seemed to have some impression. Wang Zongliu mentioned it and it seemed that it was established at the end of last year. He heard that the president was called Li Ji, and it was said that he was the person Cai Mao strongly recommended to support.

This Li Ji was originally a Huaixi businessman. Last year, Zhao Ning killed Zhou Yan, who secretly controlled food prices. Through some unknown means, Li Ji arrived in Tokyo and actually met Cai Mao.

The Tokyo Chamber of Commerce was also established.

Li Qing said: "Ms. Qian, I'm looking for you for another matter."

"What's the matter?"

Li Qing said: "Have you ever heard of soap?"

When he said this, Zhao Ning's ears immediately stood up.

"I've heard of it." Qian Jinshu took a sip of tea and said, "I heard that it was made by the Zhao Guan family themselves."

"That's right, did you know that there are new adjustments to the soap formula?"

Qian Jinshu said: "I've heard of it too."

Li Qing continued: "I bought the latest soap and found that the formula has been improved and the materials used are much cheaper than before."

Zhao Ning's heart skipped a beat. Good guy, this person has a keen sense of business. He discovered it so quickly.

He remembered that the soap was improved two months ago. It was an improvement. Expensive things like lard were removed and replaced by honey locust.

The cost has indeed dropped significantly, and the most important thing is that the quantity of raw materials has increased.

Hasn't Zhao Ning already written "On the Assembly Line Strategy of the Song Dynasty"?

It is because the manufacturing of soap has improved and it can be manufactured on a large scale.

The first batch of leeks has been harvested long ago, and now is the time to expand the production line, lower the price, and use quantity to increase income.

Moreover, Song, Jin, and Xia are now entering a stalemate stage. Once a truce is truly entered, trade wars and currency wars are inevitable.

The "Assembly Line Policy of the Song Dynasty" was intended to increase production capacity, engage in external dumping, and fight trade wars.

It was definitely not scrawled by Zhao Ning after he was full.

He didn't expect that someone in Tokyo would smell the business opportunity so quickly.

Li Qing continued: "I want to cooperate with Lady Qian on this matter."

Qian Jinshu immediately understood that Li Qing wanted to make soap and sell the soap to Hangzhou.

The southern part of Hangzhou is hot and humid, and people there bathe more frequently. Business must be easier than in the capital, and there is a court in the capital to do this business. Li Qing does not want to go against the court.

Li Qing added: "Ms. Qian, to be honest, I fell in love with Mrs. Qian at first sight when I first saw her."

When Qian Jinshu heard this, she couldn't sit still.

Li Qing deliberately glanced at Zhao Ning, as if he was deliberately showing off.

Zhao Ning sat there motionless drinking tea.

Qian Jinshu said: "Guan Li is joking."

"I'm not joking. I have already mentioned it to my father. When your brother comes back, my father will arrange for a matchmaker to come to propose marriage."

Qian Jinshu took a deep breath and said, "Li Guanren, to tell you the truth, I am already preparing to study at the University of Tokyo, and I am not planning to get married yet."

Li Qing said reluctantly: "What a coincidence, I am also preparing to take the entrance examination to Tokyo University."

Qian Jinshu put down her tea cup, glanced at Zhao Ning who was drinking tea intently next to her, and then said to Li Qing: "Then you should study hard."

Qian Jinshu said: "Guan Li, let's discuss this matter later."

This Li Qing seemed to be a person with a rather domineering personality. He continued: "Ms. Qian, don't you also need more food? My father knows someone in Huaixi. Weng Yanguo and Weng Cao are my uncles."

As soon as Li Qing mentioned Weng Yanguo, Zhao Ning, who seemed to be drinking tea calmly, his ears almost stood up to the sky.

Huaixi transfer envoy Weng Yanguo is actually this boy's uncle?

Zhao Ning still remembers that on the first day of September last year, when the Jin army was just about to go south, Weng Yanguo's memorial "Concerning the country and the people" flew to the capital, and the artillery was directed at the new policy of Gyeonggi Road, which triggered the excitement of officials from all walks of life and the officials of the capital.
