Chapter 15: The First Transaction

"This ......" He Laohan looked embarrassed and asked tentatively, "How many pairs of pants does the young man think should he make?" ”

Cui Wenqing replied without thinking about it: "Naturally, the more the better, and according to the different materials of the pants, the selling price should also reflect the distinction between high and low, ordinary people can use raw silk and cotton cloth, rich businessmen can use linen cloth and silk arrowroot, dignitaries can use cotton silk and brocade, and you can pay back the fifty taels of silver within ten days." ”

He Laohan nodded imperceptibly, but he was very hesitant in his heart, and a trace of fine sweat overflowed on his forehead.

If according to Cui Wenqing's words, it is equivalent to pressing all his net worth on this pants, and everyone will be happy if he wins, but if he loses, he will ...... That's a lot of money!

Cui Wenqing naturally also saw He Laohan's hesitation, the emergence of new things in the past will be subject to a certain degree of suspicion, he has already taught He Laohan the way to make money, as for whether He Laohan is willing to do it, Cui Wenqing can't do anything.

For a while, the atmosphere in the store was solemn and dull, and only the sound of He Laohan's soft gasping was heard.

At this moment, Bai Yifei, who had been silent, suddenly broke the silence: "Uncle, when I get off the horse, I often feel that the flesh of my legs rubs and hurts, and sometimes I even wear out the skin, if I wear the pants you said, I don't know if it may relieve the pain?" ”

Cui Wenqing smiled and said, "General Bai, if you can put on your pants and ride a horse, you will never have the embarrassing symptoms you just said." ”

"Is this true?" Rao is Bai Yifei's calmness, and he couldn't help but show surprise at this time.

"That's true." Cui Wenqing nodded solemnly.

After receiving an affirmative answer, Bai Yifei was immediately excited, and said happily: "What our cavalry is most afraid of is grinding meat on horseback when riding a horse and galloping, if you can do this, it will definitely relieve the pain of the cavalry galloping long distances, and it can also greatly improve the combat effectiveness, uncle, you are a god!" ”

Hearing this, Cui Wenqing was stunned, can the pants actually improve the combat effectiveness of the cavalry? Oh, what an unexpected bonus.

Bai Yifei didn't think too much about it, and said directly to He Laohan: "Uncle He, give me three thousand pairs of these pants first, and I want to promote the use of the whole army, and the material can be the cheapest cotton cloth." ”

"What? Extremely? Extremely? Mountains (3,000) ...... Strip? Surprised, He Laohan's tongue was a little knotted.

"Yes." Bai Yifei nodded affirmatively, and said solemnly, "Three thousand pieces are only the number of my department, if the effect of the pants is excellent, our Zhenwu Army will definitely purchase it on a large scale and promote it in an all-round way." ”

He Laohan was stunned by this sudden big business, and he was surprised, happy and unbelievable in his heart, and said in a trembling voice: "General Bai, after Xiao Lao'er's estimate, the cost of a pair of cotton pants must be about fifty yuan, and with a little profit, you, you ......."

"Ben will give you two hundred taels, pay a deposit of ten taels first, and send them when the pants are ready, and then pay you the final payment." After Bai Yifei finished speaking, he took out ten taels of silver from his arms and slapped it on the desk.

He Laohan's eyes immediately straightened, and then he believed that everything was true, and the muddy old tears flowed out again, and he hurriedly got up and bowed to Cui Wenqing and Bai Yifei: "Thank you Cui Gongzi and General Bai for your help, the little old man really can't repay it, and he will definitely be a cow and a horse to repay your kindness." ”

Cui Wenqing personally helped He Laohan up, and said with a smile: "The old man doesn't need to be polite, the lotus leaf is a life-saving benefactor, and there is nothing to worry about in trivial matters." After that, he turned his head to look at the lotus leaf, but saw that Xiao Lori's face was also full of tears, and she was grateful.

After a little thought, Cui Wenqing decided to help He Laohan again, and said solemnly: "Uncle, once the pants are launched, counterfeiting is inevitable. ”

He Laohan was confused, and said: "Brand? What does this mean? ”

Cui Wenqing knew that there was not much brand concept at this time, and explained in an easy-to-understand manner: "That is, you can take a resounding name, as long as people buy pants, the first thing that comes to mind is your name." ”

He Laohan suddenly realized, and said excitedly: "Childe, it's better to call it He Ji pants!" ”

Cui Wenqing chuckled lightly and said: "This name is too ordinary and vulgar, and it has no characteristics at all, so this son will give you a popular and loud name." ”

After that, Cui Wenqing thought for a while, picked up the pen and ink, and wrote two big words on the rice paper - "Bird's Nest"!

Bai Yifei He Laohan looked at it, and he was shocked, and at the same time laughed with a strange face: "It's easy to understand, it's really high!" ”

Back at Zhefu, it was the setting sun, and the blood-red light stretched the shadows of Cui Wenqing and the others for a long time.

Standing still at the foot of the mansion steps, Cui Wenqing smiled at Bai Yifei with a fist and said, "Thank you General Bai for today's events." ”

Bai Yifei bowed his hand and replied: "The governor is worried about the safety of his uncle, so he asked his subordinates to follow and protect, and he really deserves a word of thanks from his uncle." ”

"I'm not talking about this, but General Bai bought pants to relieve the He family."

"Uncle, I am a soldier below, and I have always paid attention to reality, and the pants are indeed beneficial to the soldiers, so the last general will buy it, and it has little to do with relieving the crisis."

Cui Wenqing smiled and said, "General Bai believes in me like that? Not afraid that pants won't be productive? ”

Bai Yifei chuckled and said, "The last general just thinks that the man who can conquer the Grand Governor is definitely not simple, and he can trust it." ”

Cui Wenqing was full of depression when he heard what he said, and he dared to believe in him so much, it was completely for the sake of Zhezhao's face.

Entering the mansion and entering the Mei Garden, Cui Wenqing took the lotus leaf and just walked to the door of the library, and saw a tall woman standing there, and he vaguely recognized that this woman was Zhe Zhao's confidant and beloved general, and it seemed to be called Mu Wan.

"The last general, Mu Wan, has seen my uncle." Seeing Cui Wenqing coming, the woman immediately stepped forward and bowed.

Cui Wenqing bowed slightly, and said with a smile: "I don't know what the female general is doing standing at the door?" Will you be the keeper of the door for me? ”

didn't seem to be used to Cui Wenqing's ridiculous tone, Mu Wanying's eyebrows frowned slightly, and she didn't greet politely, and said stiffly: "Uncle, the Metropolitan Governor asked you to go to her room for a while." ”

"The Grand Duke? You say? What is she looking for me? Thinking of the incomparably beautiful, but cold as an iceberg, Cui Wenqing immediately retreated.

"The last general doesn't know, but my uncle will understand when he goes."

Cui Wenqing knew that he couldn't hide, so he had to nod his head and say yes, and explained a few words to the lotus leaf, and then followed Mu Wan towards the small building where Zhe Zhao lived.
