"Big brother, what kind of family has such a big loss after we have eaten the Xu family, is it just that?" Speaking of the He family, Liu Jichang remembered his hatred for them, and then began to ask.

A fierce look flashed in Yang Zhenglei's eyes, and he said hatefully: "I remember it all, but now is not the time to take revenge, and it is not too late to take revenge when there is a chance in the future." ”

"Big brother, I think the opportunity is coming soon." Liu Jichang immediately took the opportunity to say: "There is one more thing I haven't told you. Boss Chu, who works for the Japanese today, said that Boss Chu and the He family and the Xu family in Hejia Town have a deep holiday, and he also hates the two of them to death. ”

"Even that Japanese businessman has suffered the loss of Ma Qi Mountain's Thousand Households, it is said that Takeda has a small hundred people who are folded in the hands of Ma Qi Mountain's soldiers, do you say Takeda can not hate the Xu family? Why don't we take this opportunity to take revenge on the Xu family and the He family? ”

Yang Zhenglei's attitude changed when he heard the news, and said to Liu Jichang: "In the future, you can't be in a hurry, and you can do a good job in the current business first." ”

Liu Jichang saw that this was effective, and immediately said: "I listen to my eldest brother, and I will call back to Boss Chu tomorrow." ”

A few days later, Chu Ying and Niu Erdan returned to the island where Takeda was located, and after meeting Takeda Hisasa, he excitedly said to Takeda: "Mr. Takeda, good news, great news. I found a general over there to support me, and I also found two helpers, both of whom agreed to work with us. ”

When Wu Tian heard the news, his frown suddenly stretched, and he shouted happily: "Yanxi, Chu Jun, Niu Jun, you have made great contributions!" ”

Niu Erdan hurriedly said flatteringly: "It is all the cultivation of Mr. Takeda that has led to our success this time." ”

Chu Ying scolded in her heart:! You didn't do anything in Anton Wei, and when you came to Takeda, you just thought about asking for credit, what a play! However, in front of Takeda, he did not show Niu Erdan's dissatisfaction, but further said: "Mr. Takeda, I also heard a news from Anton Wei, the people who fought with our samurai last time were the soldiers of Anton Wei's Ma Qishan Thousand Households, and their leader was Thousand Households Xu Tangyi, and now his son has just been promoted to the Thousand Households of Ishinusu Thousand Households. ”

Niu Erdan hurriedly answered: "I also know that Xu Tangyi, he used to be the captain of the He Shaoyun family, a big family in Hejia Village, and he became a thousand households with the support of the He family behind him. I heard that Hejia Village is now a Hejia Town, with a population of tens of thousands of people and many workshops. The He family is also very rich, and its wealth is no less than that of the previous Yangzhou Lu family. ”

"Yo Xi, the information you provided is very important, this Xu Tangyi killed hundreds of warriors under me, and this revenge must be avenged. You prepare one at once, and then go back to Antonwei immediately to prepare for a deal with that general. In addition, find a suitable place in the open sea of Anton Wei so that we can be stationed, and if this deal goes well, we will be stationed here for a long time! ”

The two of them stood up and replied loudly like a Japanese samurai: "Hayi! ”

Just when Chu Ying and Niu Erdan returned to the south, Liu Jichang dressed up as a businessman and came to Hejia Town with two entourages.

Although he had long heard that Hejia Town had risen rapidly in a year, it had now become a commodity distribution center and a production center for many commodities connecting the north and south. But when he really saw the prosperity of Hejia Town and the scale of the city, he was still greatly shocked.

At this time, it was already early summer in May, and the city wall of Hejia Town had been completed. Some buildings in the city have been completed, and some buildings are still under construction, but this does not affect the business of various shops in the city. There are inns, taverns, shops, and houses in the city, and the city is planned in a neat and orderly manner, and the roads are wide and flat, and the area of the entire city is twice the size of the Andong Acropolis.

Liu Jichang walked around the city and saw a raw silk shop, so he walked in. The shopkeeper hurriedly greeted someone when he saw someone entering the store, and said with a smile: "Guest officer, do you want to buy raw silk?" ”

"Yes, it's my first time here, so I'll ask for the price first." Liu Jichang had never done business before, so he could only deal with it indiscriminately.

The shopkeeper said that although Liu Jichang was dressed as a businessman, he didn't look like a businessman, so he quoted a higher price: "Now the raw silk has just been listed, and the price is cheap." If you want local raw silk is seven dollars and five cents of silver, and Jiangnan silk is of good quality, you need eight dollars of silver. The shopkeeper replied.

Liu Jichang didn't know the price at all, and he didn't make a counteroffer but asked directly: "If I want more, how much cheaper can you be?" ”

This shopkeeper now has a bottom in his heart, this person doesn't know the market of raw silk at all. So he continued to ask: "How much do you plan to want, guest officer?" If it's three or five hundred pounds, it's not much cheaper. ”

"I want at least five thousand catties, so what price can you sell to me?" Liu Jichang asked confidently.

When the shopkeeper heard this, he was shocked. Xindao doesn't look like a businessman, one mouth is 5,000 catties, is he deliberately taking my low price, or is there another reason? He is the only shop in this town that deals in raw silk, so no matter what, he still has the confidence to quote it: "If the guest officer wants so much, the local silk can be made seven dollars and two cents a catty, and Jiangnan silk can give you seven dollars and seven cents a catty." ”

When Liu Jichang heard this offer, he knew it in his heart, and then asked: "May I ask if 5,000 catties of raw silk are cash goods?" ”

"Don't look at the small storefront, but we have a warehouse in the backyard, and we can still get 5,000 catties." The shopkeeper replied proudly.

"Can the price be cheaper?" Liu Jichang finally remembered the counteroffer.

"It couldn't be cheaper, it's already the lowest price." The more the shopkeeper looked, the more he felt that this person was a layman, and he no longer gave in to the price.

"Alright then, I'll come back in a few days!" Liu Jichang said simply, and then hugged his fists and said, "Farewell!" After speaking, he turned around and left without listening.

"Hey...... Please stay here, officer. The shopkeeper saw him walking out of the store, and hurriedly shouted: "Guest officer, we haven't finished talking yet, why are you in a hurry to leave?" ”

Liu Jichang stopped and said, "Didn't we talk about it?" I'll come back in a few days, this time I'm just asking for a price. ”

The shopkeeper's room, it turns out that he agreed to this price? It's as simple as that? It seems that this man is not only a layman, but also does not know how to talk business. This kind of cheap does not make money, and it does not make money in vain. Yi hurriedly said: "Guest officer, if you come to pick up the goods in a few days, then give me a certain deposit first, if there are any more goods in these days, I will not sell them." ”

"Deposit?" Liu Jichang was stunned for a moment, and then asked, "What deposit is needed for this?" After a few days, I will definitely come back if I think it is appropriate. ”

After saying that, he walked away, leaving one of the shopkeepers standing in the doorway......

Next, Liu Jichang began to ask the cloth shop for the price again, and this time he walked into the Zhouji Cloth Village. As soon as he entered the store, the man greeted him, and before he could say a word, he said, "Go and call your shopkeeper, and I'll talk to him about a big business." ”

The guy saw that Liu Jichang was still angry, and he didn't dare to slack off. Immediately serve tea, and then say go to the back to ask the shopkeeper. After a while, a man wearing a cyan robe and about thirty-seven or eight-year-old walked out and said to Liu Jichang: "The surname of the contemptible person is Ma, dare to ask the surname of the guest official?" ”

Liu Jichang hurriedly returned the courtesy: "My surname is Liu, and I have come to inquire about the price of cloth in your store." ”

The shopkeeper frowned slightly, and thought in his heart, why doesn't this person even have the most basic etiquette, and he doesn't seem to want to be a businessman. But he still said enthusiastically: "Boss Liu is fortunate to be there!" We sell here all the wide cloth we produce, which is twice as wide as ordinary cloth, but the price is the same, and our kind of cloth is three taels of silver per horse. ”

"So expensive? Didn't you say that the price is the same as ordinary cloth? How is this twice as expensive? One of Liu Jichang's entourages asked, it seemed that he knew the price of ordinary cloth, so he asked.

The shopkeeper hurriedly explained: "We are a wide cloth, which is twice as wide as ordinary cloth, and a piece of cloth is twice as expensive as ordinary cloth, so the price is twice as expensive." ”

Liu Jichang didn't answer the shopkeeper's words again, but asked directly: "Shopkeeper Ma, if I want five thousand horses, what price can you give me?" ”

When the shopkeeper heard that this was really a big customer, he didn't dare to slack off and hurriedly asked, "Boss Liu is here to pick up the goods by himself?" Or is it closed door? ”

Liu Jichang thought that it would save him trouble if they were sent to Anton Wei, so he replied: "You can send it to Anton Dong for me, and you can quickly say whatever the price."

"If you send it to Anton Wei, you will have to add five cents of silver to each piece of cloth." The shopkeeper replied.

"So a piece of cloth is three or two and five cents?" Liu Jichang asked. Before the shopkeeper could answer, he asked, "If I come to pick up the goods, how much will each horse be?" ”

The shopkeeper replied, "If you pick up the goods yourself, each horse is three taels or four dollars." In fact, the shopkeeper had long seen that Liu Jichang did not look like a businessman, so he quoted an inflated price.

When Liu Jichang heard this offer, he no longer counteroffered, but asked: "Shopkeeper Ma, I heard that Hejia Town produces soap, where can I buy soap?" ”

"If Boss Liu wants to buy soap, you can go to our Zhouji Department Store, and go out from here and walk two more intersections and turn left." The shopkeeper replied enthusiastically. Then he asked: "Is Boss Liu satisfied with the quotation of the cloth just now?" ”

"Oh, it's okay. I'll come back in a few days, and I'll talk about it then. I'm here today just to inquire about the price. Liu Jichang said casually.

The shopkeeper saw that Liu Jichang was not sure to buy it, and immediately said: "If Boss Liu is not satisfied with the price, we can talk about it again." "Obviously trying to get him to make a counteroffer.

But Liu Jichang didn't mean to make a counteroffer, just hugged his fists and said: "Ma shopkeeper, there will be a period later!" ”

Then Liu Jichang went to Zhouji Department Store and inquired about the price of soap in the same way. Of course, he couldn't have asked about the wholesale price of the soap.

Within a few days, the news that a big buyer who did not look like a merchant had come to Hejia Town spread throughout Hejia Town......
