Chapter 58: The War of Silk (2)
Ji Qiao actually replied: "What else can I think of!" You can't go anywhere during this time, so just practice at home. ”
Lin Shi was a little stunned when she heard this, this is not like Ji Qiao's character, so she looked at her mother.
Dongfang Jiao said: "It's useless to look at me, my mother said it earlier, listen to Qiao Gongzi for big things, you will stay in the house to practice during this time." ”
"Do you have a plan in place? has been hiding from our father and daughter. An Banghou still saw something.
Lin Shi also found out at this time that her mother and brother looked very indifferent, and they must have something to hide from themselves.
Suddenly, he grabbed Ji Qiao's ear, and said angrily: "You dead pig, I have been angry for a day, tell me what is going on, otherwise I won't let go." ”
Ji Qiao screamed in pain and begged for mercy: "You let go, I'll say it right away." ”
After Lin Shi let go, Ji Qiao rubbed his ears and said, "Master Hou, madam, you don't care about this crazy girl." ”
Dongfang Jiao smiled and said: "I said it earlier, the big things are up to you." Discipline this dead girl is already a major matter for the Hou Mansion, and we really can't do it, so you can only come by yourself. ”
"Madame Dongfang, what do you mean by that? Sounds weird and scary! ”
Ji Qiao felt a little scared, this was to indulge Lin Shi to deal with herself!
Dongfang Jiao still smiled: "I don't mean anything else, I just found that in front of you, we can't find a sense of existence anymore, so we decided to let this dead girl hit you more." I won't hide it from you, when you perform too well, I have the urge to kick you a few times to express my joy! ”
Lin Shi suddenly kissed Dongfang Jiao, and then said happily: "Mother is right, I often have the urge to kick him." ”
Ji Qiao smiled helplessly: "You two are too polite!" ”
"Don't digress from the topic, let's talk about how you dealt with Xuanwu." Lin Yan desperately wanted to know the reason.
Dongfang Jiao said happily: "Just wait to count the money, the 20,000 pieces of silk we produced ourselves have already been sold." ”
Lin Shi asked eagerly: "How did you sell it?" I only see the goods coming to the warehouse every day, but I don't see the shipments! ”
Ji Qiao was about to open his mouth to explain.
Dongfang Jiao immediately stopped: "Let me talk about this matter, I have been holding it in my heart for a long time. ”
And then tell the story:
"When we were building the warehouse, we had people secretly dig a tunnel from the inside, which led to the back mountain, which was two miles long.
During this time, while we were producing silk, we had people smuggle silk out of the tunnel in the middle of the night.
In order not to let the people of Xuanwu Hou find out, we did not take the main road, but used horses to carry over the mountains and mountains.
These silks were transported to the surrounding states of Zhao and Wei, and sold to those big merchants for three hundred and fifty yuan a zhang.
The price is more than half the cost of their own production, so it sells quickly. Seeing the huge profits, these businessmen are also very secretive and do not tell outsiders. ”
Lin Shi immediately said angrily: "You don't tell me and my father this!" I've been anxious for a day. ”
Dongfang Jiao replied with great contempt: "You and your father, can you hide things in your hearts?" Besides, your whole weather is whirring, so that the people of Xuanwu Hou have seen it, and they believe that we have suffered a big loss. ”
Lin Shi asked again: "Then Xuanwu Hou is now selling a large amount of silk at such a low price, or it won't be long before the entire Qi market will be occupied." In the future, it will also spread to merchants in other countries, and we will not be able to sell it. ”
Dongfang Jiao said excitedly: "We already have a countermeasure for this, more than seventy percent of the silk sold by Xuanwu Hou today has been purchased by our people." The people bought it for a hundred and thirty yuan, and we collected it from them for a hundred and fifty yuan.
The people didn't expect to make so much money as soon as they changed hands! So mobilize the whole family to buy it.
Today, a few shops in Xuanwuhou sold a total of 20,000 zhang of silk, but nearly eighty percent of it came to us, and people secretly transported it from the tunnel into the warehouse at night.
Linzi City has a population of more than 100,000 people, plus the surrounding people, a total of more than 200,000 people, Xuanwu Hou does not sell hundreds of thousands of zhang of silk, and can not find clues.
After merchants from other countries found out, Xuanwuhou's silk was also out of stock. Besides, he didn't dare to keep selling so cheaply, because it was selling at a loss, and the more he sold, the more he lost.
At that time, we will have more silk inventory, and we will slowly sell it to other countries in the future. The quality of the silk collected is almost good, and it is ready to be priced at two hundred and fifty-one zhang, and the gap with ours will be widened, and those merchants will not have an opinion. ”
Lin Shi asked again: "Then how did you find out that Xuanwu Hou had placed people in our factory?" ”
Dongfang Jiao said proudly: "This is simple, when building the factory, I found that a few people were particularly suspicious, and they always looked around. I was also particularly interested in those things designed by Qiao Gongzi, and observed them carefully for a long time.
At that time, we were suspicious, but Qiao Gongzi didn't let it be exposed, so he made a plan and asked them to send information to Xuanwu Hou. ”
Lin Shi immediately smiled and said, "Ji Qiao, come over and let me kick, I want to express my feelings." ”
Ji Qiao scolded: "Get out of you!" Go and practice more kung fu to deal with Xuanwu Hou, and when he finds out, he will definitely come to Yin. ”
......
The next day, Ji Qiao didn't go out.
The silk and satin of several shops in Xuanwu Hou are selling even more hot! Sold 40,000 zhang of silk in one day, and sold a total of 60,000 zhang in two days.
On the third day, 60,000 zhang were sold.
On the fourth day, it rose to 80,000 zhang.
On the fifth day, it was sold for 100,000 zhang.
In just five days, a total of 300,000 zhang of silk was sold.
......
Xuanwu Hou is a little incomprehensible! One zhang of silk can make at least three sets of clothes, and there are more than 100,000 people in the entire Linzi City, and even if you add the surrounding people, there are more than 200,000 people. On average, each person buys nearly one and a half zhang, how can there be no downward trend in purchasing power?
Xuanwuhou's silk inventory is now not much, less than 100,000 zhang. Keep selling, and the day will be gone; Stop, it's like a slap in the face.
......
On the sixth day, Xuanwu Hou restricted purchases, selling only 20,000 zhang of silk and satin, and asked people to follow those who bought.
But after a day of follow-up, no problems were found, and these people all moved the satin back home.
......
On the seventh day, Xuanwu Hou still asked people to sell 20,000 zhang of silk, and sent people to keep an eye on a few who bought more, and ordered them to follow up at twelve hours throughout the day.
In the second half of the night, the people sent back reported:
"Master Hou, these silks were bought from the people in the middle of the night, and they were all shipped in the direction of the Anbang Hou territory. After we tracked down to the territory of Anbanghou, we found that many people came to pick them up, so we did not continue to follow. ”
Xuanwu Hou suddenly felt a little like five thunders! yelled: "Ji Qiao, this villain is yin against me!" ”
However, after calming down, he asked curiously, "How did they get out of the city?" ”
The visitor replied, "They have bought off the guards at the city gates." ”
Xuanwu Hou couldn't stand the stimulation a little, but he was very puzzled, Ji Qiao's money? Aren't they all trapped?
......
On the eighth day, Ji Qiao saw that Xuanwu Hou sold silk in limited quantities for two consecutive days, and guessed that he had found the clue, so he called all the workers back and asked them to continue working.
On the day of the start of construction, Dongfang Jiao called the four spies arranged by Xuanwu Hou over.
Then let Lin Shi and Lin Qing submit them by force.
