Chapter 613: Cotton Cloth Becomes Blood Cloth?
The demand for cloth was too great, so big that Fang Jing felt that it was a tricky problem, but no matter how tricky it was, it could only be like this.
With so many workers in the workshop, can't they rob people? Selling ready-made fabric? Fang Jing wouldn't do such a thing.
If it really came to this point, Fang Jing was estimated to be poor enough to sell bottoms, besides, Fang Jing had never thought about taking ready-made things out to sell, at least he wouldn't.
He needs to drive Fangjia Village and drive some talents, otherwise, why do so many things, after all, in Fang Jing's future future, he may choose to leave, so he has to bring some things to Fangjia Village in advance.
This was also Fang Jing's deepest thought in his heart, no one had ever told him, not even his sister, he had never said it.
However, only Fang Jing knows about this matter, and the others are better not to say it, so as not to worry about it.
"The owner, this order is too big, it will take a long time, and this merchant is not from our Datang, but from Fusang." The steward ran over and followed Fang Jing to talk about 100,000 pieces of cloth.
"Next, we control the time ourselves, pay the deposit first, and raise two percent of the original price, if you can't get started, we won't accept it." In the end, Fang Jing gave a general idea.
The order of 100,000 horses, which will take two or three months to complete, is a big amount, a big one, a small one, and a small one.
As far as the production capacity of the Jinzhou Workshop is concerned, the production capacity of 40,000 cotton cloths a month is not much, no matter how big it is, it is impossible to produce at night, and it can only be produced during the day, so there is a production capacity of 40,000 cotton cloths.
"Okay, then I'll talk to him about it." After the steward finished speaking, he left, returned to the grocery store, and began to discuss with the merchant, in the end, there was no problem at all, it depended on the Fang family's grocery store, when it could be loaded.
Half a month later, several boats left the Fangjia Workshop Wharf on the Han River and headed downstream.
The final destination of these ships was Fuso, and the ships were loaded with 20,000 horses of cotton cloth and were operated by the people hired by the shippers.
Fang's workshop, there is no ship yet, so I can only hand over the matter of transporting goods to others, but in the future, maybe there will be my own ship.
A few days later, the boats loaded with 20,000 pieces of cotton cloth went all the way down the Han River, and after reaching the Yangtze River, they went all the way east to Yangzhou.
"Remember, this time, we don't want anything, destroy the cloth and kill people, and sink those ships again, do you understand?" At this time, in a certain house in Yangzhou, a group of masked people were gathering together, listening to their leader's instructions.
"Yes, understood." And the masked men answered.
The night began to get deeper, and on the Yangtze River wharf in Yangzhou, all the lights began to go out, and the ships parked on the wharf were one after another.
And the ships loaded with the cotton cloth produced by the Fang family's workshop are naturally among them, and after tomorrow, the cloth on these ships will eventually be changed to a large ship, otherwise, as soon as these small boats operating in the Han River enter the sea, they will go to die.
"Head, those three ships." A man in black whispered to their leader, pointing to the three ships on the docks.
"Go, kill me." The leader came this time, he killed people and destroyed the ship, and he didn't care about anything else.
"Kill"
"Help, help."
“……”
Although there were not many people on the three boats, there must be more than a dozen people in total, but these masked people didn't say much at all, and cut people when they saw them.
And on the nearby ships, as long as someone comes out to check, they are killed, and you don't say anything, don't make a noise, and don't come out, but it's fine.
"Head, burned, right? It's too time-consuming. A masked man, with a knife still dripping with blood, approached his leader and shouted.
"Then burn it."
Not long after, the three ships at the dock were already on fire, and they could not be extinguished.
And the people in Yangzhou City also began to know that the wharf was on fire in the middle of the night, and even the local officials of the state capital ran out to check the cause of the fire.
But when they saw that many people had died, everyone's face didn't quite understand what was going on.
"My ship, my ship." There were not only three ships that were burned, but several more ships were affected, which made the affected boatmen cry and grieve bitterly when they saw their own ships burned like this.
"Thorn History, what do you think about this?" An official in Yangzhou approached their top official to find out what his immediate boss thought of the murder and arson.
"Let's take a look after we find out." If there were no dead people, maybe it would be a small fire, but now at least fifteen corpses have been found, which is obviously murder and arson.
In the next few days, there was a sudden rumor in Yangzhou City, saying that the cloth sold by the Fang family's high-end grocery store was all blood cloth, as long as the clothes were made of cotton cloth or something, they would definitely suffer bad luck, and maybe they could die, just like the three ships that transported the Fang family's cotton cloth, and the people on the side took the boat, all of them died.
This wind, I don't know from which person's mouth, or where it came from, at least, this makes the Fangjia high-end grocery store in Yangzhou City basically have no business, and the person in charge of things, when he receives the telegram, is only open normally.
As for whether it can be sold or not, it is estimated that it is unlikely.
And Fang Jing, who was far away in Chang'an City, never thought that someone would do something on the boat, he had been waiting in Chang'an City to do it here, but he didn't expect that in the end, he made a mistake.
"The owner, 20,000 pieces of cotton cloth, this is all money, these people are too ruthless, burn the cloth when it is burned, and kill people, alas." The steward looked at the telegram in his hand, and then at Fang Jing in front of him, although he was anxious, he couldn't help it, he wanted to know how his host Fang Jing would act.
"It's time to jump out, it's not going to jump out yet, let them jump." Fang Jing was still waiting, waiting for all the people behind these to jump out.
After all, Fang Jing seemed to have disappeared in this world, except for this Fang family restaurant, he had never been anywhere, and even the people in the restaurant were very rare.
Perhaps, the ship carrying cotton cloth is just the beginning, and there are more things to come.
At present, the Yangzhou incident is just a matter of throwing stones to ask for directions, and in the future, as long as Fangjia Village does not jump up directly, then they will inevitably have a big move.
And Fang Jing, what he needs is to come out with these big moves, and he can solve them once and for all, saving him from having to destroy one every time he jumps out.
