"This is the entrance of Majia village to mohou. Please give me some advice." village head Ma respectfully presented a beautifully made mohou hat and gloves to Merton.
When Merton looked down, he saw that the mohou hat was made of top-grade cloth. The workmanship was extremely fine. The style was more beautiful and warm. The gloves were different from the crude version of Merton's design, but all five fingers could be exposed, which was warm and convenient.
"Guidance! Is it that Majia village is going to engage in hat and glove business?" Merton felt a move in his heart and immediately understood the plan of village head ma. It's not a gift to him, but to let him palm and eye.
Village head Ma immediately bowed down in the snow tunnel: "Majia village has long admired mohou's ability to turn stone into gold. It was amazing to see the hat designed by mohou today. The villagers all think that this hat is of great use. The villagers are willing to give it to mohou for free in exchange for the opportunity to make mohou's hat."
Village head Ma held up the 100 yuan silver note paid by Merton in cash with both hands, and the villagers looked at their hard-earned huge wealth that would be lost overnight. Although their eyes were eager, no one raised an objection.
Merton was surprised and said, "I didn't expect a small northwest village to have such courage."
You should know that 100 yuan is nothing in Chang'an City, but a remote village head in the northwest is a huge sum of money, which is why villagers do not hesitate to destroy their carefully made quilts to complete orders.
"Please allow me," village head Ma said firmly.
"Get up! Let's forget the money. Ben Hou hasn't recovered the money he spent. It's not inevitable that you want to use this hat, but your ideas can move Ben Hou." Merton said faintly.
Village head Ma was delighted to know that Merton had agreed to half of it. At present, only the scheme of Majia village can move mohou.
However, village head Ma knows that this step is the most difficult. You know, what can make the Tangtang ink family look at is not a small fight, but the eyes of the ink Hou with real materials.
At present, the head of Ma village took a deep breath: "Ma village is located in the northwest. It is sparsely populated, the land is barren and the grain output is less, but it is suitable for the production of cotton. Ma village has collected enough cotton seeds and will try its best to plant cotton next year. In this way, there is no shortage of raw materials for making hat covers."
Merton nodded and said, "this is also an advantage."
Encouraged by Ma Cun's growth, he continued: "as for technology, Lao Lao is ready to buy a lot of spinning machines and weaving machines. It's best to buy Sewing machines. In this way, we can certainly speed up the production of hats."
Merton nodded irrefutably. Village head Ma could think of spending a lot of money on machinery and expanding reproduction, but he was also a talent.
"Finally, Majia village decided to follow the example of Mojia village, solve the human, material and financial resources of the whole village, and try its best to make mohou hats," said the head of Majia village.
The northwest is bitter and cold. Majia village has been in trouble for a long time and has been suffering from no way out. Now there is a broad road in front of him. He naturally wants to firmly grasp it, and the best learning object of Majia village is Mojia village.
As for the situation of Mohism, the merchants who came and went naturally have been making a lot of noise. Now that they have received the money of Mohism and used the ideas of Mohism, they should be more thorough and directly let Majia village follow the example of Mohism village. In the end, at the beginning, the foundation of mohia village was not as good as Majia village. Maybe Majia village also broke a path.
"Imitate Mojia village!" Merton's eyes brightened and looked at the gray haired village head for the first time. He didn't expect that the old man in front of him had such courage.
Village head Ma saw Merton's performance and immediately knew that his plan was successful. Mohou was already moved.
"Yes, Majia village is willing to take Mojia village as a template to bid farewell to the Mohist concept. All villagers collectively participate in the production of hats and gloves and share the profits." the head of Majia village said solemnly.
Merton looked at village head Ma, shook his head slightly and asked, "do you know that many villages in the world have followed the example of Mojia village. At the beginning, they did make great achievements, but in the end, they all failed. Some were defeated by dignitaries, some were defeated by greed, some were not divided between public and private, and some were destroyed by internal fighting."
Village head Ma bowed his head and said, "that's because they don't have a village head like mohou and don't really care about Mohist ideas."
Merton asked, "are you sure you can resist the temptation of money, the coercion of powerful people, the doubt and internal struggle of the villagers?"
Village head Ma grew up, but finally bowed his head and said, "I don't know."
Merton did not laugh at him, but nodded: "You're honest. In that case, I'll give you the most important step to the success of Mojia village, that is to distinguish between public and private. Today, the 100 Guan money is divided into two, the 50 Guan money is distributed as the reward of the villagers, and the 50 Guan money is the capital of the whole village. In the future, it is a common practice. Half of the money earned is distributed as dividends, and half is used as the collective property of Majia village to buy machinery and equipment Raw materials, continue to work and make money. In this way, there is no guarantee of great wealth, but there should be no problem in getting rid of poverty and backwardness. As for imitating the Mohist village, it depends on your future development. "
"Majia village will not let mohou down," Majia village said gratefully.
Merton looked at his hat and gloves and said faintly, "the workmanship is good, but it's a little ugly. It's said that there are many fur in the northwest. If you lining it with a layer of fur, it's beautiful and warm."
"Fur!" village head Ma was overjoyed at the speech and immediately realized that this was the guidance of mohou. The biggest advantage of the northwest is animal husbandry. A large number of fur are produced and sold every year. The price is not expensive, and the fur required for the hat is not large, even some leftover materials. In this way, the cost is greatly reduced and extremely beautiful.
"If the hat and gloves are unsalable, but go to Chang'an city to find Ink magazine, which can ensure you to get through the pass." Merton had a good impression of Majia village and couldn't help promising.
"Thank you, marquis Mo!" village head Ma was overjoyed and thanked again and again.
But Merton waved his hand. Majia village is just his unintentional layout on this snowy road. As for that, it depends on their fate. However, as Merton said, Majia village, as the place where Merton first created the mohou hat, this gimmick alone is not a difficult problem for Majia village to get rid of poverty.
Merton saw that all the soldiers had put on their hats and gloves, and the cold was not enough to stop the firearm supervisor. Even if the road ahead was snowy, Merton still waved his whip and said firmly, "firearm supervisor, let's go!"
"Yes!" the newly equipped firearm officers and men stepped on the snow again.
When Majia village saw the firearm officers and soldiers disappearing into the wind and snow, they came back to their senses one after another and couldn't help cheering,
"Send people to buy Cotton immediately and try their best to make mohou hats and gloves!" Ma Cun growled.
"Yes! Village head!"
All the villagers responded in unison. If they were still worried about making mohou hats, but after mohou personally instructed, everyone was full of confidence.
That's the mojiazi, the mojiazi who turns stone into gold. All the villagers of the Majia believe that as long as they follow the guidance of the mohou, their Majia village will one day become the Mojia village in the northwest.
Merton didn't know that his next move would create an important textile and fur town in the northwest and become the first successful model of the Mohist village model.
