Chapter 163: Iron Acquisition

Iron tools have always been out of high-consumption commodities in ancient times, and the lack of iron ore resources has made iron products very valuable.

After some chatting, I learned that the person who sold it was really the Pei family I met yesterday, and I was more relieved that Wei Chi Jingde was short of money, how could he accept so many armors.

To say that the Pei family doesn't need these armors, in fact, they really don't lack them, and their existing heavy armor is the best proof of this, but they lack horses.

It is no exaggeration to say that without horses, the overall combat effectiveness will drop to half.

Horses are very expensive, the number of five hundred, it is really difficult to make up for it, not to mention the price, whether there are so many war horses is another matter.

Pei Renji thought about discussing with Li De, but he couldn't save face, so he had to convert useless things into money and use them to exchange horses from horse merchants.

The process of collecting cannot be blatantly collected, to put it bluntly, I don't want to be exposed.

Hua Chen is a businessman, the so-called interlaced is like a mountain, he doesn't know the actual operation of the blacksmith shop, but if the matter of collecting armor is discovered, it will be dealt with according to the rebellion, his sweat fell instantly, and immediately gave Li De a meaningful look.

Li De didn't know that this was Huachen reminding him that not all business was suitable for him.

The point is that Hua Chen doesn't know what kind of person Wei Chi Jingde will become in the future, but Li De does, so he has no fear, and he can talk about doing business with his father-in-law.

"Brother Wei Chi mean to borrow money or do you want to do something?" Li De asked.

Wei Chi Jingde seems to be not good at thinking, but in fact he is a thoughtful person, he has long thought about this problem, borrowing money with his face may be successful, but the way to get along is not a one-shot deal.

If you let everyone benefit everyone and take the biggest risk in another way, so that the other party can win together, not only is the money easy to get, but the relationship will be more solid.

"The money is not borrowed in vain, and one percent of the profit will be given to Li Gongzi afterwards, is this good?" Wei Chi Jingde said.

"How much to borrow?" Li De asked.

"It's going to take a thousand." Wei Chi Jingde said.

"How much can I get in the dividends of the restaurant?" Li De asked.

Hua Chen knew that he had become an account office again, and after calculating the account book, he said embarrassedly: "Li Gongzi, the dividends are at least three hundred and fifty yuan." ”

"What, how are your accounts calculated, why are you still losing money when you are obviously profitable." Li De asked curiously.

"Li Gongzi, you haven't thought that the carpenter's workshop, the gluten workshop, and the iron pot are all expenditure items, and compared with the income, they are currently at a loss." Huachen Road.

The shopkeeper said that the seasoning is a big expense, and the newly built kitchen, warehouse, etc. are small and a lot of money.

In particular, more than a dozen large iron pots are all real ironware, of course, including cooked copper sticks from the majestic sea, and three hundred catties of iron are worth a lot of money.

Don't talk about Li De at this time, even Wei Chi Jingde felt very embarrassed, he wanted to borrow money from Li De, but the restaurant was worse than his blacksmith shop, and he didn't want to talk about it anymore, because he was afraid that they would be embarrassed.

"Li Gongzi, I don't have to do this business." Wei Chi Jingde said casually.

Li De was caught off guard by Huachen's 'bill', and he was so busy that he didn't even earn back the capital, his attitude was very calm, he knew that cost was cost, and if he wanted to make money, he needed to look at the future business.

"Huachen, do you think that this is a profitable business, if we don't do it, we will really lose." Li De suddenly said to Hua Chen.

"Li Gongzi, if you say so, you have to use my coffin book, and you can sell up to 500 yuan, which can be regarded as a restaurant shareholding." Huachen Road.

As savvy as a businessman, he will never miss an opportunity to make money.

The current matter is not a matter between Li De and Wei Chi Jingde, but a matter of the restaurant as a whole.

Wei Chi Jingde was not very happy, because he could not raise the other 500 yuan, and he was also in trouble.

"Flower shopkeeper, how much money is still on the account, or take it out." Li De said suddenly.

"Nope." Hua Chen simply refused.

"The money on the books is used to maintain the operation of the restaurant, and it cannot be moved." Hua Chen continued to explain.

"Okay, you're good at sticking to this." Li Dedao.

"Brother Wei Chi, let's go talk to them, you can't directly collect the armor, you can directly collect the smelted iron." Li De said to Wei Chi Jingde.

Wei Chi Jingde is not a business material, it is difficult to understand when he hears it, people are willing to sell the armor to let you melt it down and exchange it for money, and suddenly feel that Li De's idea is a little strange.

"Li Gongzi, what the hell do you mean by this?" Wei Chi Jingde asked.

"It's not complicated, what they need is a circulation channel for iron, and finding a blacksmith is a low-key and hidden way to deal with the battle they don't need, so it's the same whether the blacksmith shop smelts or they melt it themselves, so why should we take the risk."

"It's them who are in a hurry, and it's not realistic to sell too much iron at one time, so the price can be pressed, the business is being discussed, and it is safer to collect in batches, and it doesn't pressure the funds."

"Brother Wei Chi supplies to other blacksmith shops, the speed of Qian Hu will not be too slow, and the business can really be done." Li De continued.

Wei Chi Jingde nodded, he felt that it was very reasonable, he didn't necessarily have to eat all the other party's goods for the first time, taking his time could not only ease the capital investment, but also give the blacksmith shop a time to digest.

"Okay, it's decided, after the matter is completed, the return of the principal and the share of the 10% of the benefits will not be too little, right?" Wei Chi Jingde said embarrassedly.

"Haha, of course not, we only paid five hundred yuan, and the matter is handled by Brother Wei Chi, and we don't bother to wait for some time to collect more money, what a beautiful thing." Li De laughed.

Hua Chen also thought that the money for running the restaurant was enough, and he found that he should suffer the most, and the money he took out was his coffin book.

There is no way to let the accounts of the restaurant not be moved, in terms of economic strength, he has the money that can be used, and he doesn't want to miss this opportunity to make money in vain, but he has no complaints.

Wei Chi Jingde left with the money.

The fact that Li De was going to leave was diluted a lot by the appearance of Wei Chi Jingde.

In the evening, the restaurant prepared a large table of dishes, most of which were cooked by Li De himself, and they were basically dishes that everyone had seen for the first time.

"Brother, you left too early in the morning, and you didn't say a word to me when you went back to the restaurant, so I was called over by the third aunt and asked a lot of things, and asked me to play with my fourth cousin, hey."
