Chapter 217: Preparing for Winter

"I didn't praise you." Li Tai couldn't laugh or cry.

The three of them walked out of the warm shed, and fell asleep by the stable.

On the second day, truckloads of wool were delivered to Jingyang.

was woken up by the big tiger, Li Zheng woke up at this time, and Li Tai and Cheng Chumo had already left.

The ox carts were full of wool, and he said with a silent smile: "County Marquis, all the 100,000 catties you want are here."

Li Zheng asked Li Yifu to start unloading, beckoning hundreds of villagers to be busy unloading all the wool.

After confirming that the amount was correct, Li Zheng and the Turkic merchant came to the horse circle in silence.

"I don't know if these wool county marquis are still satisfied?"

Li Zheng poured him a bowl of boiling water and said, "Thank you for your hard work, this business will be yours from now on." ”

took out the contract Li Zheng and then said to him: "This is a contract of 100,000 yuan, you will be my wool supplier in the future, a total of 100,000 yuan of wool, now I will let Li Yifu settle the money for these goods, and in the future, you can take the wool and settle it with Li Yifu." ”

Mo Yan hurriedly saluted, "It's my honor to be able to do business with the county marquis." ”

Li Zheng continued: "I will have business every year in the future, and I hope that the business between you and me can be unimpeded." ”

Mo understood what Li Zheng meant, and hurriedly said: "Don't worry, the county marquis is very familiar with the villains at the checkpoint on the road, and I also sent military information to General Li Jing back then. ”

This is a perennial business, and it is best to have someone who can move between Guanzhong and Turkic.

The two signed the contract, and continued silently: "County Marquis, there is something that the villain still thinks he needs to explain to the county marquis. ”

"You say."

He nodded silently and said, "At first, in addition to the county marquis, some people also bought wool this time. ”

"Who?"

Mo Yan took out a bill and said: "This is the wool bought by the other two, one is General Cheng who bought 3,000 catties, and the other I don't know where the other party came from to buy 1,000 catties." ”

"I don't dare to deceive the county marquis, I am sincere about the county marquis's business."

Li Zheng crossed Erlang's legs and said, "Then what should I do if someone grabs the goods from me in the future?" ”

Mo vomited and hurriedly said: "The villain will definitely do a good job in the business of the county marquis first, and then go to the business of other people, the county marquis can rest assured." ”

Li Zheng nodded with a smile and said, "Let's go to the village entrance to settle the bill, I hope there will be more wool on the next trip." ”

"Don't worry, the county marquis." Silent vomiting hurriedly saluted.

After he left, Xu Jingzong whispered to Li Zheng: "Is this person trustworthy?" ”

"Of course I can't believe it." Li Zheng looked at the contract in his hand and said: "A person who speculates like this has greater benefits, and he will definitely turn around and follow others." ”

"In that case, do you want to do business with him?"

Li Zheng said with a smile: "You find a trustworthy person, follow him, and give me a familiar understanding of his business path." ”

Xu Jingzong, who understood, immediately said: "I understand the meaning of the county marquis, Ming Xiu plank road secretly crosses Chen Cang, what the county marquis wants is his business path, and we can do it ourselves in the future." ”

After making a silent gesture, Li Zheng whispered: "There are not many businessmen who come and go between the Turks and Guanzhong, and a stable transportation line is very important, if you spend the same amount of money to buy a bag of rice, you can eat it for a month, but if you buy a knife, you can eat it every day." ”

Xu Jingzong nodded, "I will arrange people in the next place, and I will do business behind the silent vomit in the next trip." ”

"Good work."

"It's what should be done."

Xu Jingzong left Jingyang and returned to Chang'an, arranged a few more clever rangers, and then followed behind the silent business to find out his business path.

A group of village aunts looked at the truckloads of wool and were at a loss for what they were doing.

In later generations, wool was a very important textile material, with good elasticity, strong moisture absorption, and more importantly, good warmth.

The wool on the Turkic steppe was later called Mongolian wool, which was said to be Mongolian wool, and the softness of this wool was very good.

It is a good material for making clothes, and the wool on the grassland can be said to be a golden mountain.

As if he had seen a lot of silver cakes flying towards him, Li Zheng said to Xu Jingzong: "I'll just say, the sky has changed, and I'm going to get rich." ”

Wool cotton clothes and quilts can be made, and you will no longer be afraid of freezing this winter.

The previous process had taught Da Niu and Di Renjie, and the aunts in the village took the needle and thread and watched the two children make a few wool cloth sacs, and soon knew how to do it.

Many of the children's clothes in the village are made by the aunts themselves, and this kind of work can be seen at a glance.

Soak the wool in water and let it dry in the sun.

You can also put some spices when stitching, and it will also be fragrant to wear.

A padded style of clothing, almost done.

Di Renjie put it on his body and felt it for a while and said, "Teacher, it's really warm. ”

The wool in such a dress is about a pound, and it is very light and light to wear.

Such a dress sells for fifty wen, Li Zheng pondered the price.

Xu Jingzong said: "I thought that one hundred wen was more than enough. ”

"It's cheaper, the cost is not much, a hundred yuan is too much for people to afford, this is not a perfume, perfume can be used by poor families, and poor families still have to wear clothes."

Li Yifu said: "The county marquis is kind. ”

Fifty wen a piece, many people in Chang'an should be able to afford to wear it, and they can afford to buy one of these clothes after ten days of work.

Today, Datang's GDP is still too low.

Li Yifu calculated carefully in his heart, ten cents a pound of wool, counting the capital and cloth money, a piece of clothing can probably earn about twenty yuan, and it has nearly doubled back and forth.

If Li Zheng had raised the price, he might have been able to earn more.

Li Zheng instructed Xu Jingzong: "You go to Cheng Biting Jin's house and buy Cheng Biting Jin's wool as well." ”

"Is it also ten cents a pound?"

"Cheng Yanjin has a total of 3,000 catties of wool there, you can ask him if he sells it at a price of fifteen yuan a catty."

Cheng Yanjin, who was in Chang'an, heard Xu Jingzong's words, and still had some suspicions, "Fifteen Wen a catty? ”

Xu Jingzong nodded, "The county marquis did ask so." ”

Cheng Yanjin drank the wine and said, "You go back and tell Li Zheng that the old man doesn't sell it." ”

Xu Jingzong said again: "Now only the county marquis in Chang'an is collecting wool, and I don't know what General Cheng can do with wool." ”

"The old man is useful." Staring at Xu Jingzong's expression, Cheng Yanjin asked: "At the beginning, you were also one of the eighteen bachelors of the Qin Palace, why did you go with Li Zheng, is the life in the court not good?" ”

"If General Cheng wants to sell it, come and find it."

After speaking, Xu Jingzong turned around and left, without answering Cheng Yanjin's words, everyone has their own ambitions, and there is no need to say much.

Now after leaving the court, Xu Jingzong feels a lot more relaxed, and slowly likes Li Zheng's idle days like wild cranes.
