Chapter 204: The Three Cotton Merchants of Zhou Village (3)
When Qiao Yun heard this, his nose bubbled with joy, and he hurriedly got up and said, "Thank you Gongzi He, thank you Gongzi He!" ”
Under the leadership of Qiao Yun, He Zhiyuan and his party of six came to He Ji Cotton Store in a moment. m.141biz. Before I arrived at the front of the store, I saw a man in his fifties standing in front of the store, looking anxiously left and right. He Zhiyuan thought to himself that this person was probably the owner of He Ji.
That man was He Peijia, the owner of He Ji, and he was overjoyed when he saw the man walking towards this side with a group of people. Hurriedly walked a few steps forward and greeted him, "He Gongzi can come today and let the old shop shine, and the contemptible person is He Peijia, the owner of He Ji." ”
As he spoke, he presented the name card with both hands, led the way in front of his head and invited He Zhiyuan to enter the main hall in the backyard, and then immediately instructed the servant, "Quickly serve tea to He Gongzi and go to the best dragon well!" ”
After the two sides sat down with each other, He Zhiyuan looked like he was thousands of miles away, and said straightforwardly, "I know very well the purpose of Boss He's asking the guy to invite me here, but unfortunately I have already negotiated with Liu Ji yesterday, and I will sign the contract today." ”
"Why is He Gongzi in such a hurry?" He Peijia smiled and said without getting bored, "If you come to Zhou Village to buy cotton yarn, how can you count yourself as a trip to Zhou Village if you don't ask everyone in Zhou Village." ”
"In Zhoucun, we He Kee cotton business is the largest, regardless of the quality of cotton yarn or price and specifications, we Ho Kee are the best and most complete, otherwise how can we do the biggest? You're right? ”
He Zhiyuan smiled and listened to him, neither nodding nor shaking his head.
He Peijia then asked, "I don't know how much cotton yarn Gongzi He is going to purchase this time?" ”
This time, He Zhiyuan knew it in his heart, and said directly, "This time I am going to purchase 1,500 quintals first, if the price is fair and the quality is high, we can cooperate for a long time." I don't know what price Boss He can give me? ”
When He Peijia heard this number, she was immediately excited. 1,500 quintals, almost one-third of his monthly turnover, if you can cooperate with him for a long time, He Ji will leave the other two far behind, and be the boss steadily. However, with such a big list, Liu Ji must have given a very saying, "Our Ming people are not secret words, since He Gongzi wants to sign a contract with the Liu family, it must be the Liu family who gave you a very favorable price." I will directly give you the lowest price of seven taels of silver and deliver it to your door! ”
He Zhiyuan shook his head with a smile and said, "Thank you very much for Boss He's sincerity, I have already negotiated with the Liu family, and we will cooperate next time." With that, he got up and left.
"Childe stays!" He Peijia hurriedly said, "I'll drop another penny, this should be satisfying, right?" ”
He Zhiyuan still smiled and shook his head, then turned around and was about to leave.
Seeing that a big business wanted to collapse, He Peijia was in a hurry, and said urgently, "If the cotton cloth produced by He Gongzi is underwritten by our He Ji, the price of cotton yarn can be negotiated again." ”
Because he had promised to let the Zhou family underwrite all the cotton cloth, He Zhiyuan had not inquired about the purchase price of cotton cloth again, and now he might as well take this opportunity to ask by the way, so he turned around and asked, "What price can you He Ji pay to buy cotton cloth?" ”
He Peijia saw that things were slowing down, and he was happy in his heart, this is his way, "Now the market purchase price is nine dollars and five cents of silver, I will give you one or two silver horses, and the price of cotton yarn will be reduced by another dollar!" ”
When He Zhiyuan heard the purchase price of the cloth, he was grateful to Zhou Fuliu in his heart, and she really gave the highest purchase price. The purchase price of the cloth given by Zhou Fuliu is two or four dollars of silver, because Zhou Fuliu knows that the width of the cloth woven by He Zhiyuan is twice as wide, so the price is naturally twice as high, and it is converted into a narrow pair of cloth is one or two or two dollars of silver. He Zhiyuan believed that Boss He would not be able to give this price no matter what.
He Zhiyuan shook his head with a smile and said, "Thank you Boss He for your sincerity, but there are already merchants who have underwritten my cloth, and the price she gave me is much higher than yours!" Leave! ”
After speaking, he walked away quickly without looking back.
"Hey, Master He, don't go. Let's talk about it again," a desperate emotion welled up in He Peijia's heart. He said sadly in his heart, starting next month, the king of cotton yarn in Zhou Village will change hands.
After He Zhiyuan left, He Peijia was upset, and asked the shopkeeper to discuss countermeasures, and after a while, Gu Chonglin came to the main hall, at this time, the shopkeeper Gu already knew the news that the business had not been negotiated. He Peijia said, "The owner doesn't have to be upset, 1,500 quintals of cotton yarn per month, his Liu family may not be able to eat it." When the Liu family can't receive cotton yarn, he will definitely come to us. ”
He Peijia sighed and said, "What you said is also reasonable, but such a big business was robbed by the Liu family, how can I feel comfortable in my heart." The kid from the He family just said that the purchase price of cotton cloth given by someone was higher than one or two silver, which one has such guts? Dare to open such a high price to collect cloth? ”
"Boss, you are really a noble person, how forgetful." Shopkeeper Gu said with a smile: "You forgot that the Zhou family and the He family in Qingzhou have formed an in-law, and the Zhou family started the cloth business as early as last year. ”
After being reminded by the shopkeeper, he suddenly realized, "I was confused for a while, and I forgot about it." With the Zhou family here, it is impossible for his cotton cloth to be sold to other families. No wonder he doesn't want to do business with us, it's because of this layer. ”
The shopkeeper Gu went on to say, "The owner, I heard that the He family has improved the loom, which can weave a four-foot wide cotton cloth, which is twice as wide as the original, and presumably the efficiency of this weaving cloth can also be doubled. ”
"Can you weave a four-foot-wide cloth? Can this message be confirmed? He Peijia asked in surprise.
"Listen to what Guy Liu said, this may be true." Shopkeeper Gu replied.
He Peijia thought about it carefully and felt that it was very possible. Yesterday it was reported that he could produce 15,000 pieces of cloth per month, and according to this calculation, he should need 750 quintals of cotton yarn, but today he clearly said that he needs 1,500 quintals of cotton yarn per month, which is exactly twice as much, and he must have produced cloth four feet wide.
"So he really improved the loom." He Peijia muttered.
Shopkeeper Gu asked, "Owner, how should we deal with it next?" ”
The walnut in He Peijia's hand was spinning rapidly, and his mind was also thinking quickly.
After a long time, the walnuts in his hand suddenly stopped, and at the same time, he made up his mind and said to the shopkeeper Gu, "Inform all merchants that the price of our cotton cloth will be reduced by half to speed up shipments, and we will pay close attention to the return of funds and reduce the purchase of cloth from Jiangnan; Send a reliable person to Juzhou to find out the style of the He family loom, if you can get a pattern or buy the weaver of the workshop, the lord will be rewarded; Third, I personally went to the Zou family, and we joined forces with the Zou family to increase the purchase price of cotton yarn, and grabbed the cotton yarn in the market with the Liu family, so that the Liu family could not deliver the goods on time. I don't believe that the He family will not come to do business with us by then! ”
Shopkeeper Gu was shocked when he heard the owner say this, this is equivalent to firing at the same time with the He family in Juzhou, the Zhou family in Qingzhou, and the Liu family in Zhou Village at the same time, can there be a chance of winning in this way? It was he who reminded, "Boss, we have made too many enemies in this way, and the risk is very great." ”
"What are you afraid of, Shandong Sicheng's cotton yarn is in our hands, and we are afraid that they are new to the industry?" He Peijia said conceitedly.
"The owner sent someone to find out the style of the He family's loom, is it planning to open a weaving workshop?" Shopkeeper Gu asked tentatively.
"I have planned this for a long time, and now I have this suitable opportunity, so I naturally can't give it up. We have our own cotton yarn and cloth sales channels, so there is a lack of weaving workshops, and with weaving workshops, we are complete. He Peijia replied.
The shopkeeper Gu gave a thumbs up and praised: "The owner is clever!" ”
Coming out of He Ji Cotton Store, He Zhiyuan turned back and came to Liu Ji Cotton Store. At this time, Liu Congjing was as anxious as an ant on a hot pot, he had already heard from his buddies that He Zhiyuan was invited to He Kee's cotton store by He Ji's buddies, and he had such a variable, how could he not be in a hurry. But at this time, he could only do it in a hurry, and there was nothing he could do.
Seeing He Zhiyuan returning, Liu Congjing was overjoyed, and he had a feeling of being lost and regained. He invited He Zhiyuan's master and apprentice to the main hall and instructed the servants to serve tea.
He Zhiyuan said lightly, "Halfway through, I was delayed for a while by some miscellaneous matters, and I am a step late, and I ask Liu Gongzi to forgive me." ”
Where did Liu Congjing mean to blame, hearing He Zhiyuan so polite, he felt flattered, and hurriedly said, "It's good to come, it's good to come!" He Gongzi held me so high in Liu Ji, it was too late to be grateful, where was there any meaning to blame. ”
"It seems that Liu Gongzi knows what happened just now?" He Zhiyuan said with a smile.
"The He family has always liked to use this method to rob other people's businesses, and we are used to it." Liu Congjing said helplessly: "The He family relies on himself to be the boss of the cotton merchant in Zhou Village, and he has been stealing business from our Liu family in the past few years. ”
"But I like the way He Dongjia does things." He Zhiyuan said lightly: "So I simply dealt with it and left in two sentences." ”
Liu Congjing arched his hand and said, "Thank you Gongzi He for choosing our Liu family as a business partner." ”
Subsequently, Liu Congjing instructed the servant to bring the prepared contract and asked He Zhiyuan to look at it, He Zhiyuan read it, signed and sealed the contract, Liu Congjing also signed and sealed it on behalf of his father, and in less than a quarter of an hour, a large order of several hundred loads of cotton yarn was completed.
An hour later, He Zhiyuan took this contract and embarked on the road back.
At the same time, He Peijia personally went to Zou Ji Cotton Store and found Zou Zhengsheng, Zou Ji's owner, and the two were locked in the room and conspired for a long time.
As soon as He Zhiyuan left, Liu Congjing did not dare to delay at all, and immediately ordered his men to immediately buy a large amount of cotton yarn on the market!
According to past experience, a desperate rush to buy cotton yarn is about to blow violently in Zhoucun and its surroundings
