Chapter 51: The Great Order (Chapter 2 of the New Year)
"Thank you, Mrs. Lu, it's just that it's useless, the four shops in Jixian County are probably worth no less than thousands of yuan, I wonder if Mrs. needs the help of the kid?"
Ma Qiang looked at Lu Ning, Lu Ning lowered his head and smiled, and then boasted, "What is Mrs. Lu, isn't this a point?" If the little immortal master doesn't dislike it, how about you and I be commensurate with sister and brother? ”
Ma Qiang looked at the injury on Zhang Sheng's face and took a breath, with such a wife, it is normal to be pressed.
"That's... What does my sister need? ”
"My sister doesn't have anything else to ask for, but I just see that the toothbrush and toothpaste are bought and sold quite a lot, your brother is a county lieutenant, and he has no future, Immortal Brother, can you help your brother and share some toothbrushes and toothpaste with your brother?
Brother Immortal, don't worry, we will definitely not sell in this Ji County, we also have shops in Changping County, and we guarantee that Brother Immortal Master will only make more. ”
"This?" Zhang Sheng didn't expect his wife to fall in love with this deal, and he was a little surprised for a while.
"Ma'am, is this...."
"Listen to me!"
"Ahh
Ma Qiang didn't care whether Zhang Sheng had another new injury, and his brain quickly weighed it.
His own daily chemical products such as toothbrushes and toothpaste can definitely raise a big family's business, but as a later generation, he knows better that a person can't make a fortune, even if he pulls up Dasongcun and Nanlou, it is too thin in Handi.
Zhang Sheng is a member of the Zhang family in Yuyang, and Lu Ning is a member of the Lu family in Zhuo County, both of which are the largest families in the local area, and if they rely on them, they will definitely be able to open up the trade routes of the whole Youzhou soon.
If it was a peaceful era, he could still slowly start his own trade routes, but the Yellow Turban Rebellion was just around the corner, and he should find a way to hoard money and food as quickly as possible to prevent big changes.
It's complicated, but in fact, it only took a few seconds for Ma Qiang to make a decision.
Ma Qiang took the kettle and added some water to Lu Ning, and then said with a smile, "Since my sister said this, I will also tell the truth, I told Brother Zhang before, I am not an immortal master, but I just know something that outsiders don't know."
Since I have taken out toothbrushes, toothpaste, etc., I hope that everyone in the world can use them, so that I can reduce the problem of dental disease to the world, which is also a merit.
In this case, I hope that this matter will be used by everyone as soon as possible, this is not profitable, it is just a trivial matter.
In this way, in addition to Jixian County, I handed over the sales of toothbrushes, toothpaste, soap, and soap to my sister in the entire Youzhou, but I also have requirements. ”
Hearing the entire Youzhou, Lu Ning's eyes lit up.
Unlike what many people thought in later generations, the women of the big family at this time basically read and were good at business.
Although the Han Dynasty did not discriminate against merchants as much as the later Ming Dynasty, the social atmosphere of valuing agriculture and light commerce has slowly developed, as a family of men with a face as long as they can study, they will be sent to study, but people still have to eat, and the truth of making money in business is actually known to all families, so it has slowly developed the custom that men read literature and practice martial arts, and women run family businesses.
In fact, this is also a manifestation of the social division of labor outside the male protagonist and the female protagonist, and this division of labor has been a common phenomenon in China in later generations, and the wife is often in charge of the economy in the family.
As Lu Zhi's younger sister, Lu Ning is only rude to Confucianism, but he is proficient in business and farm management, so he will know that there is a big profit when he sees a toothbrush and toothpaste, and his eyes light up when he hears that Ma Qiang is willing to hand over all the sales channels in Youzhou to her.
"I don't know what my brother wants?"
"First, I want pricing power, the final selling price of all products must be determined by me, of course, I will give my sister enough profit."
"Of course, it can." Lu Ning nodded in acceptance.
"Second, I have to collect money first and then give the goods, that is, the advance payment system, sister, you should also see that I don't have much money in my hands, and if I don't have money, I naturally can't buy raw materials and organize a large number of production, so I need to collect money first."
"Okay, no problem."
"Third, the sales in Youzhou are limited to the places where my Han people gather in various counties and counties, and the sales of alien races such as Wuhuan have been handed over to Lord Nanlou before, and I also invite my sister Haihan."
Saying that, Ma Qiang took out the token that Nanlou gave him and put it on the table, Zhang Sheng and the others are knowledgeable, Lu Ning took a breath and looked at Ma Qiang, she didn't expect Ma Qiang to have a relationship with a Lord Wuhuan, nodded and said, "Yes." ”
Ma Qiang clapped his hands and smiled, "Okay, let's negotiate like this, if someone wants to enter this business in the future, I will let him go to my sister to talk, or that sentence, I will determine the final selling price, and I don't care how the profits are distributed." ”
Lu Ning chuckled, "Good brother, you want to use your sister as your big shopkeeper." ”
Ma Qiang said with a panicked face, "Don't you dare, besides, sister, you should count it, as long as my supply is enough, this transaction, my sister will make tens of millions of profits a year, I'm afraid it will be more than that." ”
"But what if the supply is not sufficient?" Lu Ning is indeed good at management, and soon found the problem, if all the sources of goods are provided by Ma Qiang, then once Ma Qiang no longer gives goods, the Zhang family and the Lu family, who have paid a lot of money to open up the trade routes in other counties in Youzhou, may lose all their money.
"It's simple, we can add a pricing agreement, for example, my toothpaste, I set the selling price in Jixian County to be two hundred yuan, because of the existence of freight, so the price in each county may be slightly higher, my sister needs to order three months in advance, I will measure the output to determine whether it can be delivered on time and make an agreement with my sister."
My sister needs to give me an advance payment of 30% when the contract is signed, and then the goods will be added to 10% for every 10% delivery, and finally the 30% does not need to be paid.
In addition, if the boy does not deliver the goods on time, unless it is because of force majeure such as floods, earthquakes, wars, etc., the goods need to be discounted to the sister according to the delay time, if it is ten days late, it will be free to the sister, so what does the sister think? ”
Lu Ning rolled his eyes, feeling that this kind of payment method was extremely novel, but it could indeed protect the best interests of the two parties, and then looked at Ma Qiang with the appearance of a young man, and secretly thought about his origin, how could a person with such a thinking really be just a mountain hunter, if he was not born, everyone would have been guided by a famous teacher, or this person was really a child of immortals.
"My brother is very good at this, so my sister is going to place an order now." Lu Ning covered her mouth and chuckled, "My sister only has a little capital, so my sister will first ask for 50,000 toothbrushes, 200,000 boxes of toothpaste, 400,000 boxes of soap, and 50,000 boxes of soap to try the water. ”
Lu An and the others, who had been sitting behind Ma Qiang and had not spoken, were all short of breath when they heard this, and Yue Yang, who was not good at mathematics, began to wrench his fingers again.
How much does that cost! How many trotters can you buy to eat?
