Chapter Seventy-Six: The Dancing Yin Business War XI
Chengdong Market, Jingping Chamber of Commerce.
"Hold them back?" Mu Jing was reading a book, reading a copy of "The Mean", he asked Zhang Heng while reading.
Although he is also a college student, he is only a college student of a business college, not a student of the Chinese department, at most he has only audited some courses of the Chinese department, and if he wants to pretend to become a reader in this era, he has to work hard.
The Four Books and the Five Classics are mandatory.
It is not easy to read some Confucian classics, whether you have read them or not, but also to learn to understand them deeply, and to use the thoughts of people of this era to understand the mystery of these articles.
"Big shopkeeper, since the day before yesterday, the price of the cloth in our hands has been reduced three times in a row, and they have also reduced the price three times, and finally we stabilized the price at about two hundred and fifty yuan, they are ten dollars lower than us, we pretend not to dare to reduce the price, they think that this price war is won!"
Zhang Hengyu reported: "Since then, most of the customers have been snatched away by them, but they are also afraid of the empty inventory in our hands, so they are dragged to the cloth market, and it is estimated that even Gongchang and those scholars are also paying attention to this side at this time!" ”
"Good!"
Mu Jing put his books together with both hands, and the breath in his body suddenly exploded, like a rising red sun, and he said loudly: "You guys start to do it!" ”
He arranged the task in a deep voice: "Remember, starting from the periphery, we must be cautious at the beginning, all the purchase actions can not be in the name of the caravan, they must be private, the whole must be broken into parts, the action must be light, each purchase can not be too much, can not attract attention, but to buy many times, before they react, we can't take the initiative to expose our intentions!" ”
"Understood!"
Everyone looked solemn and nodded their heads.
"Zhang Heng, Sun Hao, you two as the executive treasurer of Jingping Commercial Bank, your duty is to execute, this battle is the first battle after the establishment of Jingping Commercial Bank, you have to let people see your ability clearly, otherwise no one in Jingping Commercial Bank will obey you in the future!" Mu Jing looked at the two of them, his voice was calm but heavy, and the two old rivers and lakes were a little out of breath.
"Yes!"
The two nodded heavily, their eyes were as hot as fire, and Mu Jing told them that Shang Jia could come out, and they were also moving in this direction.
"Xu Lin stays, others go and do things, this battle is related to the future development of Jingping Commercial Bank, and it is also related to your net worth, so no step can be wrong, you must do the best, so you all have to watch carefully!"
"Please rest assured, we will not let you down!"
Everyone departed in unison.
Xu Lin stayed, he looked at Mu Jing: "Big shopkeeper, they all have something to do, how do I feel that I am a little redundant!" ”
"That's not your point!"
Mu Jing said indifferently: "The Xu family is cast, you should know that in the era of war, your Xu family is the most popular!" ”
He had a intention in his heart.
The intention was to change the Xu family's workshop into a military factory that would provide weapons and equipment for the Mujia Army in the future.
"The big shopkeeper wants the Xu family workshop to build weapons for the shepherd's soldiers and horses?" Xu Lin's eyes lit up.
Mushan is the only remaining Nanyang Yellow Turban of a Qu Shuai, although it is a small Qu Shuai, it is also a Qu Shuai, so outsiders call Mu Shan, most of them become Mu Shuai, or the title of the grass on the mushroom mountain in the past, Mu is the master.
"How many workshops does the Xu family have?"
"Eight!"
"How many weapons can be made per day?"
"What kind of weapon does this look at?"
"What if it's a spear?"
"The spear only needs to cast the gun head, this is not difficult, if there are enough ore materials, more than two hundred gun heads can be cast every day, but the spear needs a gun shaft, and the gun shaft is not ordinary wood, but needs a special wood, the gun shaft made of this wood is tough enough, but Wuyin does not, not even Nanyang, so Nanyang does not have many guns, even if there is, the composition is not good!"
"Does Nanyang use a lot of knives?"
"It's not that I don't want to cast a big knife, one is because it is very laborious, and the other is that our Xu family's craftsmanship is insufficient, so we can only cast the head knife, which is the most commonly used weapon in our Han Dynasty, and the casting of the head knife is also a weapon to measure the level of iron control!"
Xu Lin thought for a while and said, "Our Xu family can do twenty refinements, and the level is in Nanyang, middle and upper!" ”
In ancient times, there was a term, the Hundred Refining Treasure Knife.
Twenty refining is a standard, like a long knife weapon, at least it must be more than fifty refinement, if it is a real treasure knife, at least one hundred refinement.
"What about the Xu family's Red Fire Sword?"
"It's different!" Xu Lin said: "The Xu family's method of forging the red fire sword cannot be popularized, and it takes at least one or two years to cast one, and the most precious materials are needed, but the Xu family was able to break through the twenty refining sword at the beginning because of a breakthrough in the process of casting the red fire sword!" ”
After Mu Jing asked a lot of questions, he began to fall into his thoughts.
Xu Lin stood quietly beside him, not daring to disturb.
Mu Jing was actually reminiscing, recalling some things he had seen in books, or hearsay, and he was alive and interested in what he could find in the encyclopedia...... The casting process, he thought about it anyway.
"I heard that the steel frying method appeared in the Western Han Dynasty, but it was not popularized!"
"There is another one, the steel filling method!
"This should be easier to use!"
"But I just don't know how limited these manufacturing processes are to the casting conditions!"
The memory is fairly clear.
Soon he remembered several casting processes.
He wrote down some in detail, although he studied business management, but physics is definitely top-notch, with some remembered technology, in conjunction with his physical level, a steelmaking process beyond the times was unearthed.
"Take this method back and try it, and see if you can refine a fifty-refining treasure sword!"
Mujing Road.
"The big shopkeeper will also cure iron?"
Xu Lin was surprised.
"You forgot, I came from the Taiping Dao, the Taiping Dao has dabbled in countless things, and I also learned a little, there are a lot of the Taiping Sutras that were inherited by the Mo family back then, and I just remembered some of the skills of the left way of the side door." Mu Jing quickly came up with an excuse.
"But the fifty refining knife can only be done unless there are some big workshops or the Mo family inheritance family!" Xu Lin was still very confident in the forging method of the Xu family, he looked at the forging process on it, but he couldn't see anything abnormal, and said with some frowns.
"Give it a try!" Mujing shrugged.
"Okay!"
Xu Lin took the forging method and walked away.
*********************
In May, the weather begins to get hotter and hotter in early summer.
Gong Mansion.
Gong Chang, the head of the Gong family, knelt on the top seat, and the merchants sitting on his left and right were all Wuyin merchants, their faces were not very grim, but they were not very happy, but they were a little dignified.
"How's the cloth doing?" Gong Chang asked.
"Brother Gong, we have stabilized the price so far!" The woods arched their hands.
This roller coaster rides, their Lin family, and some silk merchants have suffered heavy losses.
But in the end, Zhang Heng didn't mean to lose both.
So the market is quite stable at the moment.
"What I want is Zhang Heng, they are bankrupt!" Gong Chang said coldly.
He was a little anxious, more than a month had passed, but Zhang Heng and Sun Hao were still standing in Wuyin County, and if this continued, the scholars would doubt his ability.
"Brother Gong, it's not that we don't do our best, we all do our best!"
Lin Mu said bitterly: "I can't help but lose!" ”
"We're all losing money right now!" Several silk merchants are also speaking.
"Can the price still be reduced?"
Gong Chang frowned and asked.
"Brother Gong, Zhang Heng is on guard, he ordered more than 10,000 pieces of cloth from Xiangyang at the beginning, if the price is really reduced, he can only lose both!" Lin Mu shook his head: "It's impossible to defeat them!" ”
"What about the rest?" Gong Chang drank cold.
The market is not only for cloth, but also for other goods, grain, salt, timber, ore, ...... If they don't wait, they don't believe that Zhang Heng and they can do everything.
"What kind of Jingping firm they set up, and among the Jingping firm, there are more than a dozen merchants, and these merchants are now closed except for Zhang's Silk Village, and even the Chengnan Restaurant is closed, they would rather be quilted than operate, we have no way to start!"
Someone whispered.
"Damn it!"
Gong Chang became more and more impatient: "I don't believe it, so many of us can't get a Jingping firm from them, keep an eye on me, I want to see how long they can close, and in terms of silk, you are reducing the price a little bit and suppressing the Zhang family!" ”
"Good!"
Lin Mu nodded, and agreed.
