"Uncle Cai, you also know that the production of sweaters is really low, and it must not be as many as before, but now under the guidance of Master, we have produced a batch of down jackets, it depends on whether you are interested?"

"Since it was instructed by Mr., it must be fine, but what about leather clothes, leather pants, and leather shoes?" Steward Cai seemed to be very relieved of Cao Yan's suggestion, and did not put forward any opinions.

"We are already gathering people to expand production, and there should be 10,000 sets at the end of the month, but the shoes are estimated to be less, only one or two thousand pairs." Luo Ming had a little headache, the eucommia on the market was almost scavenged by him and Cao Yan, but this thing was originally used for medicinal purposes, and the demand was already low, and no one planted it.

Although the mountain of Cao Yan's house and everyone present are also full of barren mountains, it takes time for this tree to grow, and it is estimated that the output of the shoes in recent years has been like this.

"If there are fewer shoes, there will be less, I want them all, don't sell others." Steward Cai hurriedly said.

The leather goods that Cao Yan made out did not smell rushed, soft and shiny, warm and convenient to wear, and it was not watery when it was rained on rainy days, especially the leather shoes, the soles were soft, and it didn't hurt his feet when he walked long distances, and he fell in love with them as soon as he wore them.

When he bought it at that time, he was told by Luo Ming that the output of this thing was not high, so the price was high, thinking of the thing that was robbed last time, he hated it again, and cursed a few words in his heart.

"Okay, then I'll try my best to help Uncle Cai prepare."

"Oh, and what about the price?" Steward Cai thought about it and suddenly asked.

Seeing that Luo Ming agreed simply, he remembered the news he had heard in the past few days, and everyone was ready to increase the price to get the goods from Luo Ming.

"I just wanted to say this to Uncle Cai, you also know that this day is getting colder and colder, now these things are like grain, when it comes to green and yellow, the price of this grain will definitely double, you can go to the East Market and ask, what price is offered by others now." Luo Ming was a little embarrassed, he was afraid that he would say the price directly, and Steward Cai was not happy, so he wanted him to go to the market to ask.

"Rabbit cub, don't play with your Uncle Cai, they are them, I am me, you give a happy price," Steward Cai knew that he would definitely not be able to purchase it according to the original price, thinking of this, he scolded the merchants of the United Commercial Bank and the group of thieves in his heart.

But fortunately, there were not many purchases last time, and the losses were also made up, this time, he decided to make a big one, and exchanged the millions, plus the money brought from home, to exchange them for things and ship them back.

"We need to add three layers to the original." Luo Ming smashed his mouth and spit out this price that made Steward Cai's heart bleed.

Joke, he Cai Steward just prostituted such a large sum of money from the United Commercial Bank for nothing, he eats meat, and he always has to drink some soup with him.

"What do you say?" Steward Cai clutched his chest and felt that his blood pressure was a little high.

"Uncle Cai, it's really low, and the East City has been added to the fifth floor." Luo Ming explained.

"Those people, can you have a relationship with Uncle Cai and you? Don't you want to think about it, when you were young, I hugged you and said to your father, you must have a great future in the future, have you forgotten? Steward Cai hurriedly played the emotional card.

Luo Ming's face was entangled, this old guy came here again.

"Then you say, what price?" Luo Ming asked with an embarrassed expression.

"Add one layer," Steward Cai said, he also knew that he couldn't say this without adding himself, after all, the East Market really added five layers in order to grab enough of these things, and some distant places even added seven layers, and he also thought that as long as he transported them to the capital, then he was sure that the price of these things would definitely be doubled and sold, or he could sell them directly in the East Market and make a profit.

"Uncle Cai, my family is so big that I have to eat and drink Lazar, your price is too ruthless." Luo Ming complained bitterly.

This made the people around him look at him with wrong faces, and I really wanted to ask, doesn't your conscience hurt when you say this? Cao Yan only gave you a million taels of silver some time ago, you can eat the delicacies of the mountains and seas until you die, right?

"Then you give me a real price." Steward Cai also took a step and said.

"That's it, two-and-a-half." Luo Ming said.

"Two and a half floors?" Steward Cai calculated it in his heart, although it was half a layer less, but this amount of walking was a terrifying number, and he definitely couldn't go too far, Luo Ming's family was no easier to bully than the United Commercial Bank, and several elders of his family were all officials in Beijing, so he could only grit his teeth and agree: "Okay!" ”

Seeing that the conversation with Luo Ming was over, Steward Cai looked at Cao Yan with a smile and asked, "Sir, don't you increase the price of your things over there, right?"

Cao Yan thought of the perfumes, mirrors and other items sold on his side, it seems that this thing has little to do with the weather, but there are more people who have come to buy recently, and the price has risen a little, and the highest in the East Market has been added to three layers, of course, this is the price of scalpers, Cao Yan did not add it.

Cao Yan shook his head, "I didn't add it, but the supply has been a bit tight recently." ”

"In this way, I am willing to add two and a half layers, please Mr. must sell them to me first, and I will load them together and transport them away when the time comes." Steward Cai smiled.

This sentence is a bit shocking, Luo Ming stared at Steward Cai for a long time, a little impulsive to cut him, the price on his side has risen, and the price has been cut by half, and Cao Yan has not increased the price here, but he Steward Cai actually took the initiative to ask for a price increase, and this price is the same as what he worked hard to get, so what makes sense?

"Okay," who is not selling this buying, not to mention that the price is still rising, Cao Yan happily agreed.

"Then thank you, sir, by the way, Xiao Luo, Uncle Cai has done such a big business with you today, you always have to invite this meal, right?" Seeing that the business was negotiated, Steward Cai relaxed and sat at the table and everyone was polite.

"That's natural, Uncle Cai, feel free to do so."

……

After three rounds of drinking.

"Steward Cai, did the person who robbed you last time figure it out?" Xia Haibo asked after taking a bite of the dish.

Steward Cai looked around and saw that there were no outsiders, so he said: "I figured it out, there was a subordinate who hid in the bushes while people were unprepared, and after we all ran away, when those masked bandits took off their scarves, he saw the faces of several people, and this time he came back and checked the wanted notice, only to find out that it was the group of people in Jiulong Village who were caught by you last time." ”

"What, they're not afraid of death and come out again?" Someone shouted in surprise.

"It's just that I'm not afraid of death provoking our Xiangguo Mansion, this time I will definitely ask Cai Xiangguo to write to the imperial court and send troops to exterminate them again." Steward Cai said through a little gritted teeth.

"Then Steward Cai, how are you going to transport the goods back this time?" This time, Steward Cai made such a big deal, I'm afraid it was a little difficult to leave quietly, so Cao Yan asked.

"This time, I am going to take a detour to Chuzhou, take the Shandong border, not Anhui." Steward Cai said his thoughts, and then looked at Cao Yan, wanting to hear his opinion, because this matter could not be concealed at all, as long as his large army left the city, then he would definitely be targeted.

"I don't think this matter is appropriate," Seeing that Steward Cai had been staring at him, Cao Yan also knew that he wanted to ask what he meant, so he spoke.

"Why?"

"There are more powerful mountain bandits over there, and if you go over there, it is estimated that the chance of being robbed is much greater." What Cao Yan said was the news I learned last time in Dengzhou, and there were also Song Jiang and his group in this space.

"What then?" Steward Cai was a little anxious when he heard Cao Yan say this.

"In fact, it's very simple, you just need to remember to set the route every day, before departure, send a number of horses to ride in front, patrol back and forth, no problem to go, if you encounter an accident, don't hesitate, immediately turn around and go back." Cao Yan made a move.

"Master, you're talking about marching and fighting, right?" Luo Ming looked at Cao Yan a little crying and laughing after hearing this.

"It can also be understood in this way, anyway, transporting these things can also be seen as marching and fighting." Cao Yan didn't think there was anything, in this era, as long as you pass by a mountain, there is a 50% chance of encountering bandits, isn't it normal to transport goods as a march? ?

Steward Cai's eyes rolled, and suddenly he suddenly opened his mouth, figured out the key, and hurriedly thanked him: "Thank you, Mr. for your advice,"

The price of these two and a half layers is worth it, if Cao Yan's method was used last time, then he would have been able to find out that there was a problem on the official road, and if he turned around and returned to the city immediately, he would have escaped if he didn't get it, and the vegetable housekeeper said secretly: "Sure enough, there is no vanity under the fame." ”
