Chapter 67: What to Fight with the King?

The purchase restriction does effectively reduce the number of shipments, and also gives the subsequent transportation team more time to transport.

In the beginning, it was normal, some people bought a maximum of ten horses, and most people just bought one or two horses for their own use.

But a quarter of an hour later, Niu Fang noticed something unusual.

At this moment, all the customers who came to buy cloth bought a maximum of ten pieces of cloth, and if they were not dressed like ordinary people, it would be fine, and seeing these people with patches on their bodies turned out to be fifteen hundred yuan, which attracted the attention of Niu Fang.

"Your Highness, the little one has already sent someone to investigate, and it is confirmed that someone is playing tricks, and he is currently investigating behind the scenes, but at the current rate, our inventory can only last for an hour at most." Niu Fang hurriedly reported the news to Li Yuanjing.

"Leave them alone, just explain it when it's out of stock and close the door, and wait for tomorrow to continue!" Li Yuanjing waved his hand.

Does it matter if anyone is messing around behind their backs?

For myself, it doesn't matter at all, whether you make trouble or not, the money I should make is still a lot of money, it was originally prepared according to the amount of one day, and now it can be over in half a day.

Li Yuanjing thinks that this is a good thing, and he can take this opportunity to give the guys a half-day vacation to rest, and the combination of work and rest is still very important!

"Really?" Cheng Chuliang looked at Li Yuanjing depressedly, and said a little unwillingly: "With such a big background, they still dare to mess with us, will it make them more and more arrogant?" ”

"I think we should expand as soon as possible, on the one hand, go to various places to buy raw materials, regardless of them? The price of a horse of one hundred and fifty dollars is not less, and who is it not sold to? Fang Yiai said disdainfully.

"Yang Li has recruited some apprentices again, and now he can build 20 looms a day, and there should be more than 1,100 looms in the weaving mill at present, and an average of one can weave one ......horse in five days," Cheng Chuliang said, he is in charge of the affairs of the weaving workshop, and he knows the situation best.

Originally, it took about seven days to weave a piece of cloth, Li Yuanjing proposed the mode of assembly operation, but there are not many places that can be improved in the assembly operation of the loom, and after several tests, the efficiency is only two days higher than before.

1,100 units, 1,100 pieces of cloth in five days, an average of 220 pieces per day, such a small number is not enough for the sales of Wanmin cloth stores in an hour.

Li Yuanjing was silently calculating in his heart, doing business cannot be done blindly, and the places that should be considered must be taken into account, otherwise they can only lose a mess.

The population of Chang'an is less than 500,000, and together with the surrounding population, the entire Guanzhong region is barely about 2.5 million, and these are only the number of people registered.

After the wars at the end of the Sui Dynasty, land annexation and other factors, the number of recluses in the early Tang Dynasty doubled, and in a few decades, the population of the Tang Dynasty was about twice as small as that of the Sui Dynasty, and most of these people became recluses.

Therefore, Li Yuanjing's preliminary estimate is that there are about five million people in the entire Guanzhong.

Although the hidden household does not exist on the books, it is actually real, and according to the consumption power of one cloth per three people a year, it is estimated that about 1.6 million pieces of cloth are needed to supply.

Overcapacity?

It doesn't exist, the Guanzhong region is saturated, and it can be transported to the Central Plains region with a larger population, even if a piece of cloth is sold for one hundred and sixty yuan, it will still make people crazy to rob it.

The technical advantage is an absolute advantage, for example, now, even if the Zheng family also engages in a large-scale production model, it still can't play itself.

Can producing a piece of cloth in seven days be the same as producing a piece of cloth in five days?

The simplest conversion, their cost is higher than their own, share it evenly, four pieces of cloth a month are more, and the output is less than seven hundred yuan, while their own side can produce six pieces of cloth, more than one horse more than him, even if it is reduced to one hundred dollars a horse, they still have to earn, but the Zheng family will definitely lose money.

Therefore, when there is an overwhelming advantage in technology, the least feared thing is the price war, which is also the horror of scale and technology.

"Tell Yang Li to mobilize the people of Huangzhuang and expand the scale of the weaving workshop to 5,000 units as soon as possible." Li Yuanjing said to Cheng Chuliang, and then looked at Liu Hu: "Technically, it must be kept secret!" ”

Near noon, the Wanmin cloth shop still closed its door.

The twenty or so truckloads of cloth that had just been delivered were sold out without even resisting a quarter of an hour, leaving the store with no goods to sell.

After the explanation was done, Niu Fang closed the shop, and the transport team was still busy, the warehouse was cleaning, the guys were cleaning, and the account room was making the final reconciliation.

Everyone was busy, but Li Yuanjing and those little rabbit cubs, a few people were bored playing mahjong.

This time, though, instead of playing with money, they played a small game with sticker strips.

"Your Highness, this is today's bill, this is yesterday's bill!" In the afternoon, Niu Fang found Li Yuanjing with a thick bill.

Yesterday's bill was obviously much thinner than today's, and Li Yuanjing didn't bother to look at them one by one, and directly picked up the top piece of paper, which was the general account counted by the account room.

Yesterday 1,987 pieces of cloth were sold, and the total income was 298,000 and 50 dollars.

The cow steward took five times the reward, and the fourteen men took the same one, a total of nineteen times the reward, and the total account balance was 284,750 yuan, the total cost was 158,960 yuan, and the net profit was 139,090 yuan.

Yesterday's tax payable was 29,800 and 5 dollars!

Today is even more terrifying, in half a day, a total of 3,200 pieces of cloth were sold, with a total income of 480,000 yuan, a profit of 224,000 yuan, and a total of 48,000 yuan in taxes to be paid, and a total of 77,805 yuan in taxes in two days.

According to the current algorithm, it is 110 always more, although the money is not much, but if you consider that this is just a store, just two days, then who would dare to ignore it?

If there are 1,000 such shops in the entire Tang Dynasty, theoretically, the imperial court can increase its tax revenue by more than 20 million yuan a year.

After reading these accounts, Li Yuanjing felt confident in his heart.

"Prepare the tax money and take it away later!"

"No!" Niu Fang nodded, although it was unreasonable, but if King Zhao spoke, he had to do it.

Under normal circumstances, the tax is levied once a month, and the goods will be registered when they enter the city, and each copy is sold, both parties have a contract as evidence, and the contract is uniformly made and issued by the government, and the government will check the quantity of your purchase, the number of contracts used, if there is no problem, just follow this.

If there is a problem, it will be checked one by one, this is a big project, ordinary merchants do not dare to do this, whether it will be found out or not, they will be rectified.

Anyway, the backstage is King Zhao, and there are so many second ancestors, Niu Fang is not afraid at all, if the store is rectified, the most uncomfortable are a few of them.

Just those people in Chang'an County, do they have the courage to come to the Wanmin cloth shop?
