Chapter 106: How to Make a Profit

It should be a season of spring rain, but the sun is shining every day, but the courgettes called Happy Village are growing very well, but these melons and fruits that gradually waft out of their fragrance do not make Yu Xiu'er's mood better.

"The husband has not considered this matter, how can he answer the emperor like this!"

"Uh, will the consequences be serious?"

"I'm afraid that my husband will not be able to become His Majesty's confidant in this life."

"Well, I didn't want to be his confidant in the first place!"

"Husband is cautious, you are the emperor's retainer, if you can't become the emperor's confidant, then ······"

The two had a quarrel for the first time, and there was always a collision between two completely different thoughts, so although they lived in the same room tonight, they did not sleep in the same bed.

Sun Xiangfu, who slept alone in the bed, couldn't fall asleep over and over, the ancients were not stupider than modern people in some aspects, at least Sun Xiangfu always felt that his head was not enough in front of Li Shimin, as an emperor, Li Shimin almost mastered a trump card that was the best in this era, that is, the amount of information.

After the eldest grandson Wuwu took charge of the harem, he has been living frugally, but the amount allocated by the imperial court to the harem is not less, plus the supply of the Fisheries Department and the Food Supervision Department in the past six months, the harem can be said to have mastered huge wealth, where did the money go? Li Shimin did not follow Sun Xiangfu's original suggestion to make charity and distribute it to the poor, but repeatedly expanded his secret guards.

Therefore, he can know in detail the every move of Chang'an, and even some important ministers outside Chang'an, in this situation of information asymmetry, who can play Li Shimin is strange.

Sun Xiangfu knew this, so he never doubted that Li Shimin would have the last laugh, but if he was asked to sell himself to another person from the bottom of his bones, he couldn't do it.

He is a modern man, he feels that he should live for himself, the emperor pays him a salary, provides him with protection, then, he contributes labor and earns some benefits for the emperor, which is normal, but it is limited to the exchange of benefits, and if he is allowed to sell his conscience, it will be a bit too much.

And Yu Xiuer is just the opposite, she is a person of this era, thinking that people should be loyal to their beliefs, since Sun Xiangfu chose to be loyal to the emperor, then the emperor should be his faith, he should unreservedly contribute everything to the emperor, so that for the emperor, for Sun Xiangfu himself, it is good.

It can't be said that any of them have wrong thoughts, in modern terms, Sun Xiangfu's thoughts are right, in ancient times, Yu Xiuer's thoughts are right, and what is wrong is that a modern person has returned to ancient times.

As soon as the morning dawned, the two who didn't sleep well were called up by Uncle De, and the quarrel was a quarrel, and the play still had to be rehearsed, so this scene equivalent to the final scene for Xu Xian and Bai Suzhen began to be rehearsed, and then it was the play of Xu Shilin and Hu Meiniang.

Due to the bad mood, the crying scene of the two was very slippery, and after more than an hour, the eyes were about to cry and swollen, and it was almost noon, the guests began to come to the door, and the play could not continue to be rehearsed, and the two went backstage to remove their makeup, Sun Xiangfu softened first, and pressed his hands on Yu Xiuer's shoulders and said, "Don't be sad, don't be sad, you will listen to your husband in the future." ”

"No, it's the concubine's fault, the mother has confessed, the concubine should marry her husband and follow her husband." When Yu Xiu'er heard this, her eyes turned red.

"Well, did my mother-in-law say that? Then you have to be obedient, no matter how you quarrel in the future, you are not allowed to sleep in a separate bed with your husband······

Ouch! Don't pinch me by the waist······"

The quarrel was sudden, and the reconciliation was fast, but this incident reminded Sun Xiangfu that he would never affect his family's happiness for other people's bullshit in the future, even if it was the emperor's matter.

In the afternoon, Zhang Yi, Zhao Muchun, Yang Qiu, and the three of them visited together, and Sun Xiangfu received them in the office of the restaurant.

"Sun Xiamu, seeing that the weather is getting warmer, even if our supreme leather goods open, they won't be able to catch up with the good time, so you have to hurry up and come up with ideas."

"yes, yes! The goods prepared by the royal court are full of several large warehouses, and His Majesty's deadline has passed, and if we don't start selling at a profit, we will have to roll up and leave. ”

As soon as Zhao Muchun and Yang Qiu came up, they complained first, of course, Zhang Yi's situation was not much better, the Forestry Department and the Animal Husbandry Department finally had something to sell, his side, but there was no output at all, originally, if Li Shimin agreed to Sun Xiangfu's seedling plan, the royal farm would also plant some cotton, courgettes and watermelons, but Sun Xiangfu's plan was vetoed by Li Shimin, so he can only wash his neck now and wait for it to fall.

"Have you chosen the shop in the East Market?" Sun Xiangfu stretched out his hand to stop Zhang Yi, who was about to open his mouth to speak, and asked.

"The choice is good, according to what you said before, the large shop that was chosen, and the decoration has been completed."

"Well, Yang Xiamu, you go back immediately now, and let someone send some of the goods produced by the Supreme Leather Goods to Wangjiang Tower. The day after tomorrow, before the White Snake show, let's have a product show. However, your animal husbandry department has to pay Wangjiang Tower a thousand yuan. ”

"A thousand?" Yang Qiu was stunned when he heard this.

"Don't think it's not worth it, this is the cost of eating two meals in the big private room of Wangjiang Building, only charging you a thousand yuan is considered a discount, and after the storage of your leather goods is displayed, it will be an instant hit." Sun Xiangfu is confident.

"Hit?" Yang Qiu was stunned again.

"Well, that's what it means to be crazy." Sun Xiangfu waved his hand and explained.

The leather jackets, boots and bags of the supreme leather goods are designed by Sun Xiangfu in accordance with some styles in later film and television dramas, among which there is a kind of high-heeled leather boots, which is a fatal temptation for women, and the whole temperament of the woman wearing high heels will change.

"Then, what about our imperial furniture?" Zhao Muchun asked urgently.

"It's easier for you to send a made chaise longue, rocking chair, stroller and the like to each powerful person in Chang'an, remember, only send one, and tell them when you send it that this thing is specially made in the palace, and the workshop of the Forestry Department does not produce much, so Your Majesty can only reward them with one."

"And then?"

"And then you're waiting in the shop to collect the money! Remember, whether it is the royal furniture and the supreme leather goods produced by the things, they must not be sold at a low price, the lowest is more than ten times the cost, there is no upper limit, when the time comes, you will find that the higher the price, the more people will buy. ”

Zhao Muchun obviously doesn't know the Tao here, since he is high-end, he has to make people feel high-end, how can he make people feel this way?

First of all, it is a special name made by the court, and even if others want to imitate it, they don't dare to imitate it at will, after all, the face of the emperor, and the things related to the emperor, can it not be high-end?

After that, it's a super high price, can such a high-priced thing not be high-end?

This is the first feeling of most consumers when they see an ultra-high-priced product, whether they buy it or not, it is not practical, the first feeling is that this thing must be high-end.

"But our Agricultural Division has no goods to sell!" Zhang Yi said with a bitter face.

"That's why I didn't let you go to the East Market to open a shop!" Sun Xiangfu spread his hands and said.

"So how does the Department of Agriculture make a profit?" Zhang Yi asked.

"Let me ask you, what are the advantages of the Department of Agriculture over the Department of Forestry and the Department of Animal Husbandry?"

"Well, after the spring ploughing, there will be more than 10,000 mouths left in my agricultural department to eat." When Sun Xiangfu asked, Zhang Yi's face became even more bitter.

"Your agricultural department has 3,000 households, more than 10,000 people, more than 4,000 strong men alone, and thousands of Turkic prisoners who were distributed to you last time! This is your wealth! ”

"People, what is the use of people?"

"You are stupid, you knew before that these people were sent to work in various palaces to collect benefits, but now that the farming is over, you don't know how to take some work? There are more than 20 large-scale fishing farms to be put into use in the fishery industry, and the follow-up pig farms, chicken farms, and feed processing workshops will be put into construction, which requires a lot of manpower.

Now the Department of Agriculture has sent people to help take care of it, help with construction, and bring some industries that must be used to manpower under the umbrella of the Department of Agriculture. ”

Labor is the greatest wealth, no matter how many ideas Sun Xiangfu has, it takes labor to realize, and the agricultural department that has the largest population can cooperate with other departments in many aspects, as long as these people are used reasonably, the wealth created will be greatly increased.

The three of them didn't know why, the seemingly difficult problem came to Sun Xiangfu, and it was solved by dividing it by two, so they went back to arrange the deployment of manpower and material resources, and Sun Xiangfu found Yu Xiu'er and asked her to pick some tall and handsome women among the waiters in the restaurant.

This request almost caused Yu Xiu'er to be beaten, and finally, after learning Sun Xiangfu's true intentions, Yu Xiu'er wanted to break this husband's head to see what was inside, how could there be so many Pegasus starry sky thoughts.

So, Wangjianglou came to an internal beauty pageant, and a long blanket was also laid on the stage, after the products of the supreme leather goods were delivered, these selected girls began to change into products and practice catwalks on the long blankets, of course, Sun Xiangfu will also stuff some private goods in it, such as the products in Nie Sanniang's ready-to-wear shop, and many of them were put on the stage like Sun Xiangfu.

"Remember, smile confidently, imagine, you are the most beautiful woman in the world, pay attention to the high-heeled leather boots under your feet, you will be a little unaccustomed to wearing them at first, you will not take them off for these two days, these things will be yours in the future."

Off the stage, Sun Xiangfu felt a lot of pressure to train a group of models in two days.
