Enter the Room

There is a big flaw in this approach.

As long as one kiln or workshop violates the plan, this plan will collapse.

But the forest is big, and there are all kinds of birds.

Song Jiuyun is not very optimistic about this approach.

But she still agreed.

Chairman Ma and Master Yan were very happy.

The Songjia Kiln Factory is now the largest kiln factory in Jingdezhen, not just one of them. It employs the most kiln workers and fires the most types of porcelain. One family can support a Xingjia Glaze Shop. Without Song Jiuyun Without their participation, their plan is like the moon in a mirror, impossible to implement.

"Then we've settled on this," said President Ma, "I'm going to summon my colleagues and gather at the Feng Temple in seven days to discuss the price reduction of blue and white porcelain."

Song Jiyun had no intention of attending the party.

She pointed to the small workshop that was still smoking and said: "Look, I still have a kiln to burn, and I really can't leave. Can I ask our shopkeeper Zhou to attend in my place?"

She also knew what President Ma was worried about, and promised: "I am also a member of Jingdezhen, a member of the guild, and I must advance and retreat together with everyone. No matter what decision the Feng Shen Temple makes at that time, we Songjia Kiln Factory will definitely comply with it. You can rest assured!"

President Ma was a little disappointed.

Song Jiuyun, who can fire all kinds of porcelain with a rate of finished products much higher than ordinary people, is now a man of the hour in Jingdezhen. When porcelain burners mention Song Jiuyun, they all praise him with their thumbs up, and his reputation is very high. Without Song Jiyun's participation, this party would lose a lot of color.

He still wanted to fight for it, but seeing that Song Jiyun was firm, he couldn't force it, so he had to say goodbye to Song Jiyun in despair.

After Zhou Zheng and Song Jiyun saw off President Ma and others, he said hesitantly: "My boss, do we really want to join them? We may not all be able to work together."

He is not very optimistic about this approach either.

Song Jiyun smiled and said: "No matter what, since they are willing to give it a try, we should also support them."

Then she asked about several old merchants: "It is impossible to reduce prices, but we can compensate in other aspects. For example, the prioritization of their orders."

She didn't explain what the order was, but Zhou Zheng already understood it.

Nowadays, the most difficult order for their kiln factory to arrange is, of course, Buddha statues!

Song Jiyun also said: "Tell them, in business, only win-win can the business last long. Now they think our blue and white flowers are too expensive, so they can go to Liangyu Kiln Factory to purchase them. We will never do this because of this." There is a gap in the heart.”

Zhou Zheng had been working for Song Jiyun for such a long time, and he could vaguely feel her pulse. He said excitedly: "Does the boss have any countermeasures?"

"No!" Song Jiyun laughed, "I just don't want to use the springboard of the guild."

Zhou Zheng saw her smiling like the spring in May, so bright that there was no haze at all, and she didn't believe it at all.

He also laughed and said, "Master, I know what to do."

Song Jiyun couldn't help but tease him: "What do you know?"

Aren't you afraid of guessing wrong?

Zhou Zheng rarely said slyly: "I don't know anything. I only know that I will do whatever my boss tells me to do."

After he finished speaking, he waved towards Song Jiyun and said, "Master, I'm going back to the kiln. Since the blue and white flowers can't be sold for a while, I have to discuss it with Master Luo and the others to see if these blue and white-burning masters can First transfer to other workshops to help."

The wages of the master craftsmen and kiln workers at the Songjia Kiln Factory are among the highest in Jingdezhen, so the master craftsmen and kiln workers in their factory are also the most skilled in Jingdezhen. After Song Jiuyun took charge of the kiln factory, he changed the previous rule of piece-rate work and allowed the master masters and kiln workers to participate in the profit sharing. If Qinghua's business goes down, the income of these people will also go down. But when people are idle, things tend to get into trouble. It's better to try to find something for them to do.

Song Jiyun didn't keep him, she was in a hurry to burn her alum red.

What made her a little strange was that for several days in a row, she felt as if someone had touched the burned alum red on the shelf. She even put a hair on the alum red, but the hair was still in its original place. place, but the weird feeling still lingers.

Maybe she was distracted by a few hexagonal boxes.

She sighed in her heart - out of sixty hexagonal boxes, five were burned, but the cup she put in had a yield of about 80%.

Song Jiuyun could no longer see it.

As she put the burned hexagonal box into the brocade box, she said to herself: "Nine is the highest number. I can't burn any more. That's it!"

Zhou Zheng came to tell her good news: "Not only did those old merchants not leave, our blue and white porcelain business has actually gradually improved."

"Eh?!" Song Jiyun was also quite surprised.

Zhou Zheng said with emotion: "Speaking of which, I owe this to Qian San."

The one who bought their Jingglai.

"Tell me about it!" Song Jiyun stopped packing the brocade box and went to the accounting room with Zhou Zheng.

Zhou Zhengdao: "I brought your words to those old merchants, but as soon as they heard that we could give them priority in arranging orders, they immediately stopped leaving. This was originally expected, and there is nothing to say.

"What people didn't expect was that Qian San came to our house to purchase goods again. He heard from our people that the blue and white flowers from Liangyu Kiln were two-thirds cheaper than ours. After thinking about it, he decided to purchase goods from our home. Inevitably, some colleagues were curious and asked him why he insisted on hanging from a tree instead of taking advantage of him.

"Then Qian San said, he believes in our kiln factory and you, the owner.

"He said that our kiln factory is going through the most difficult time. He believes that as long as we get over this, we will definitely compensate him."

"There are still such people now!" Song Jiyun couldn't laugh or cry.

"That's also because you have a good reputation, boss!" Zhou Zheng took the opportunity to flatter Song Jiyun. "After hearing this, those merchants slowly began to purchase goods from our house. However, they asked us to write down the time of their purchase. It’s clear. From the looks of it, he must have listened to Qian San’s words and wants to talk to us about priority orders when he comes to our house to buy other porcelain.”

"That's okay!" Of course Song Jiyun couldn't disappoint those who believed in her, "Just help them write it down."

"There really is a way to compensate!" Zhou Zheng lost his voice after hearing this.

"I can definitely compensate them." Song Jiyun smiled and pretended not to mention the matter anymore, but asked how his trip to the mountain temple went.

"Everyone agreed!" Zhou Zheng was still a little excited when he talked about this. On behalf of the Song Kiln Factory, he not only sat on the main seat, but also sat under Chairman Ma, and Li Zixiu, who was present. As a person whose status is second only to Chairman Ma, the aura that attracts everyone's attention is really intoxicating.

But after being excited, he was also worried: "I saw that some small workshop owners agreed, but they agreed reluctantly. I wonder if this method will work in the end?"
