Chapter 334: Get the News
Because of the small flying machine, Lu Renyi and his party soon arrived in the next city, this is a majestic city, Yucheng is a city with a population of hundreds of thousands, the arrival of Lu Renyi and others did not attract anyone's attention, after all, there are many people coming in and out of a city like this every day, especially businessmen, Lu Renyi and they look like businessmen, it is normal to go in and out of the city.
"This is Yucheng, we have to find a shop here to buy it first, as our gateway here, and then go to contact the merchants here, wholesale our goods, in addition, this is much more prosperous than the previous town, you go to inquire if there is any useful news, see if you can find out business opportunities." Lu Renyi said.
After the order was given, several people set off separately, Lu Renyi came to the teahouse and listened to various news, some of which made Lu Renyi pay some attention.
"Last year's harvest was not very good, the grain harvested at the bottom was much less, and the imperial court did not say that some taxes would be reduced or reduced, and many people could not survive." One person said.
"Yes, if it weren't for the fact that we people still have a bit of a family background, we will have a bad day when the weather is bad and there is no harvest." Another said.
"The recent food prices seem to be rising, those profiteers, it's really hateful, how can they eat if they continue like this." Another said.
"I hope there will be a good harvest this year, otherwise I'm afraid many people won't be able to eat." A rich-looking man said.
"What does it have to do with us that untouchables can't eat, do you know, the emperor is going to choose a concubine this time, all states and counties have got the news, not only the official lady can participate in this election of concubines, but also ordinary people's families, do you have any sisters and sisters in your family, if you are selected, it is really a great thing, but it is a pity that our family is the only one seedling, and there are no sisters." A gorgeously dressed young man said.
The young man's words quickly attracted everyone's attention, after all, it was not their turn to eat if they couldn't eat, and these people who came to the teahouse to drink tea were basically businessmen from all over the world who came here to rest, how could people with no money come to drink tea. The previous talk was just because the weather was bad, the harvest was not good, and their interests were also lost, after all, although they were relatively wealthy merchants, they had not yet reached the point of big merchants, unlike other big businessmen who hoarded food when they encountered disasters, not only would they not lose money, but they would make a lot of money.
"Is this news true? I have a daughter in my family, who is twenty-eight years old, and if she is selected by then, she will not forget the reminder of her little brother. A middle-aged man said.
"It's easy to say, it's easy to say." The young man said.
"I've heard the news too, but there is not much chance of being selected by so many people, so my family won't join in the fun." Another middle-aged man said.
"This is a bad statement, how can you not go because the opportunity is not big." The middle-aged man before said.
"This time, the young ladies of the draft official family were selected to become the masters, and they were not selected to leave the palace directly. And the daughter of an ordinary family is at most a low-ranking concubine and sent away, and if she is not selected, she is likely to be selected as a palace maid, and the daughters of the family are all raised, which is to serve people, I am afraid that there will be no good results in the palace. It's better to find a family with the right family to marry, and you can also get an ally. The man said.
"Brother Tai, Gao Jian, but in this case, you have to arrange family affairs for your daughter as soon as possible, otherwise the list will come down, maybe you will have to stop getting married, and you have to go." Another person reminded.
……
Lu Renyi heard these people's talk and immediately thought of a lot of ideas to make money, since the price of food during this period of time is expensive, then it is naturally cost-effective to sell food, and if you choose a concubine, you can also make a lot of money in this matter, like some gorgeous and luxurious fabrics, you will not worry about sales, and there are some cosmetics, which can definitely be sold out of stock, but just by relying on a few of them, it is impossible to do this, if it is a few months late, it seems that you can only find someone to cooperate, but it is also beneficial to find someone to cooperate, It doesn't take so much trouble for so long, and you can directly gain a lot of money, and you can make a lot of money anyway.
After getting the news he wanted, Lu Renyi sat for a while and left, and went back to discuss with a few other people, how to maximize the benefits, whether to go to various places to find a collaborator, or find a strong collaborator, and directly supply to the other party, how the other party operates, they don't care.
Both methods have their pros and cons, but Lu Renyi still prefers to find a strong collaborator, so that it takes less time, then there is time to do other things, although this time can take the opportunity to make a lot of money, but it will definitely decline in the future, and it is not worth investing too much time.
"You're back too, what's the good news?" Lu Renyi said.
"I heard some specious news, but it is a rumor, I don't know if it's true or not, I heard that the country we are in now is going to war with its neighbors, although I don't know if it's a rumor or it's true, but we can take the opportunity to sell a batch of weapons out, even if it's fake, I'm afraid many people will worry about their own safety, buy some weapons to defend themselves, especially those who are rich, will definitely arm a group of family members, but how to do it, still need to be considered." Wang Qiang said.
"This is indeed good news, I also got a news, the emperor is going to choose a concubine, I think those women will not spare money in order to be selected for themselves, we can take the opportunity to make a profit. After all, food is the foundation, and I am ready to change the plane store to be placed in the capital, which is the most prosperous and closest to the center of power, and can obtain the greatest benefits. Lu Renyi said.
"Then let's contact each of us first, and see if we can find a suitable partner, although this city is big, there are still not many famous families in it, and only the Wang family has some strength, are we going to contact the Wang family?" Zhang Hui said.
"Although the other families are not here, they have an industry, and they can get in touch with other families and magnates through the people in their industry, but it may take a little longer, so let's contact the Wang family first, if we can negotiate, we don't need to spend so much other effort." Lu Renyi said.
Lu Renyi went to talk about the matter with the Wang family, and the others took advantage of this time to arrange the matter of the store in this city, and also went to contact other families, but they didn't talk about it deeply. (To be continued.) )
