Zhang San has no idea about cooperating with the Wang family. The two families are not familiar with each other. In addition, the other party is a wealthy family. Such a family will either swallow him up or be liquidated by Li Shimin in the future.
Zhang San would not be so stupid. Besides, the core technology is in his own hands. Cooperating with Li Tai (Li Shimin) is just to take advantage of their power and make himself look valuable. After all, the Zheng family has fallen, and Li Shimin is
I rarely care about myself anymore.
Although Zhang San doesn't want to be missed by Li Shimin, who made him live in a feudal society? If he doesn't have a good relationship with the big boss, everything he does in the future will not go smoothly.
Zhang San is now working hard to turn himself into a useful person, a person useful to Li Shimin, and then use his own expertise to help Li Shimin make some money.
Now that the glass business is divided between myself and Li Tai, and there is Li Shimin standing behind me, there is no need for outsiders to join in. After all, I only have 30% of the dividends, and most of them belong to the old Li family. If the old Wang family joins in, this cake will not be
Has it become smaller?
In addition, Zhang San is also suppressing production. The prices of some glass products on the market are still very high at this time, but they are only 20 to 30% lower than the market price.
I guess the Wang family came here for this reason.
It's just that Zhang Sanqian missed one point in his calculations. The Wang family is also engaged in the glass business, and it seems that the business is quite large.
Aren't you making the same mistake again?
Thinking of Li Shimin's slightly meaningful smile that day, Zhang San felt that he had been tied to the chariot by Li Shimin unintentionally, but this time he jumped into the trap on his own initiative.
At this time, the Li Shimin and Wang Xie families were competing with each other. In the early days of the founding of the People's Republic of China, the emperors also relied on the support of these aristocratic families. However, as the country became stronger and the external hostile forces gradually lost their threat, the emperors would often turn their guns and attack them.
Those particularly powerful aristocratic families were gradually weakened.
Even if those aristocratic families are loyal to the emperor now, they cannot let it develop, because who knows what the next generation will think of the successor sitting on the dragon throne?
Fang Keying is already five months pregnant, and her belly has grown a lot. In addition, the weather is getting hotter, and the pregnant woman's temper is getting worse and worse.
However, Fang Keying's bad temper was all directed at Zhang San. Zhang San said, "Who said the seed in his belly was his own?"
It’s better to pamper your wife and children by yourself.
Zhang San cooks delicious food for Fang Keying in different ways every day, hoping that Fang Keying can take advantage of the delicious food and give himself a good look.
"Sanlang, this dish is a bit salty, that green vegetable is bland, and that pork rib soup is so fishy..." Fang Keying frowned while eating, commenting on each dish he ate.
Zhang San said with a smile: "Okay, let's not eat this. Let's try these meatballs and this stir-fried pork..."
Mrs. Xu shook her head and smiled, her daughter had really bad taste, but seeing that Zhang San always listened patiently and carefully recorded Fang Keying's comments, she felt very sorry for Zhang San.
"Okay, Keying, these dishes are delicious to me, but you just haven't had a good appetite lately. Seeing how hard you are putting the mistress into trouble, your forehead is sweating." Mrs. Xu couldn't help but persuade her.
"It's not difficult, as long as Keying can eat, I'll be fine at home." Zhang San said with a smile.
Fang Keying pouted and said, "Mother, I understand."
Before the three of them could say anything, Zhang Fu ran over and said that the emperor had summoned the lord, but Eunuch Sun was waiting in the living room.
"Come on, it looks like we have to work. Wife and mother-in-law, you eat first and I'll go take a look." Zhang San put down his chopsticks and said hello to the two of them.
"Okay, go ahead, take this with you to eat on the road, you haven't even eaten a few bites." Mrs. Xu said, giving Zhang San a scallion pancake.
"Be careful on the road, Sanlang. Ask Zhang Fu to take someone to accompany you." Fang Keying warned Zhang San.
"Okay, wife, I understand. I'll go over first, my mother-in-law." Zhang San chuckled. As expected, his wife was very tricky, but she still missed him in her heart.
Pregnant women feel most insecure at this time, especially now that she has Xiaoyu by her side, so Zhang San also understands Fang Keying very well.
In addition, the incident itself was his own fault, and Zhang San felt very guilty.
Sun Xi saw Zhang San and asked him to follow him into the palace. The emperor wanted to see him.
Ever since Zhang San was assassinated last time, Zhang Fu would always follow him whenever he went out.
"I said Eunuch Sun, why is the emperor asking me to do this in such a hurry? I have only had one bite of this meal." Zhang San asked while biting the scallion pancake.
"Hey, Lord Marquis, this servant doesn't know. Besides, what time is it? You're already having dinner?" Sun Xi replied.
Also, this time is neither noon nor morning, but there is a pregnant woman at home, so it is necessary to eat several more meals every day.
After Zhang San followed Sun Xi into the palace, Li Shimin had just finished his morning court.
After meeting Zhang San, Li Shimin asked directly: "I heard that the Wang family wants to cooperate with you in the glass business?"
Zhang San complained in his heart: I knew this was the case. Li Shimin knew it too quickly, right?
"Back to the emperor, yes, a descendant of the Wang family named Wang Hao came to me and said that the Wang family wanted to do business with me, but I didn't agree." Zhang San replied truthfully.
"Why didn't you agree?" Li Shimin asked.
"I'm not familiar with the Wang family. Besides, this Liuli business minister has already cooperated with King Wei, how could he cooperate with others." Zhang San didn't say that he was cooperating with Li Shimin. After all, Li Shimin had said that he would not get involved, but this was shameless.
Yes, he just didn't say he didn't want the dividend.
And he also got 40%, and he and Li Tai each got 30%. But doesn’t the money of Li Tai’s son also belong to him?
After this calculation, Li Shimin monopolized 70% and did nothing.
"Actually, you can agree. After all, the Wang family has been running the glass business for many years, and they have more channels than you."
Zhang San was stunned when he heard what Li Shimin said. How should he answer this? Aren't your two families in conflict now?
And give this piece of fat to the other party?
"Although they have been selling colored glaze for many years, the emperor also knows what the colored glaze is made from. According to the current price on the market, it is a huge profit. Do we still need to give him a piece of fat meat?" Zhang San asked cautiously.
"This is because you have no vision, isn't it? Why don't you make money if you have money? Anyway, their Wang family has a big business. Why don't you just sell it to them at the regular price?" Li Shimin said.
"But they just want to provide channels and then share the profits. They are nothing." Zhang San actually knew how to cooperate with the Wang family, but he didn't know what Li Shimin meant. After all, the Wang family is now looking for trouble with Li Shimin.
It's better to look stupid at this time, so as not to blame yourself for problems later.
"That's not right. How much money can you make selling it in Chang'an? But the Wang family's glass business has been sold to Goguryeo. It's boring to use this sand to make money from the people of the Tang Dynasty. What do you think?"
Li Shimin has made it very clear. If he waits for Li Shimin to finish everything, he will look too useless.
So Zhang San bowed and replied: "I understand, when Wang Hao comes to see me again, I will agree to cooperate with them."
"You can just take care of this yourself. Now that the treasury is empty, you can think of a way to make more money to replenish the treasury." Li Shimin said.
"Damn it! If the treasury has no money, shouldn't you go to Changsun Wuji? He is the Minister of the Ministry of Household Affairs, why would you go to him?" Zhang San said sadly in his heart.
Of course, Zhang San did not dare to say this, so he could only nod his head and replied: "I will do my best."
