Chapter 229: Bundling of Interests
Several merchants still didn't understand, Gu Qing patiently explained, "Whoever gives it away for free has to be right, as long as someone knows how good it is, they will naturally buy it, soap is a consumable, as long as it is used up, it needs to be bought again before it can be used in the future."
"I see." A merchant arched his hand and said, "Recruit highly, the county waits for a clever plan." ”
"Don't be a sycophant, you guys listen, soap is good or bad, I'll ask the factory to make improvements in the way soap smells." Gu Qing said, "What is being given now is the most ordinary soap, and there will be a lot of soap with fragrance in the future, and the price can be slightly increased." ”
The merchants are all shrewd people in the business field, they can understand what Gu Qing means, they have also used soap, it is indeed very easy to use, and it is also very convenient, not as difficult to use as horn soap, and it saves trouble.
"You've been expanding your business a lot lately." Gu Qing looked at several major merchants with a smile, and said to the subordinates in the family, "Show tea to a few shopkeepers." ”
"Gu Houye." A merchant stood up and said, "We are willing to hand over 30% of the profits in the business to Hou Ye." ”
"It's not good." Gu Qing said with a smile.
"Hou Ye, we have always been a business relationship, and now Hou Ye has given us such a good opportunity, we can't take this benefit in vain, drink water and think of the source, we have always come to the merchant is a cheap business thanks to Hou Ye, we are willing to be in the same boat with Hou Ye in the future."
"Hehehe......" Gu Qing smiled, "You old foxes, don't think I don't know what you're up to, you're afraid that you can't hold on to eating too much, and you want to pull me into the water. ”
Several merchants laughed.
"But why don't I want the money sent to the door." Gu Qing said to them, "I can be your rear, but you can't say it to the outside world." ”
"That's nature." A few merchants said, "Today is the only thing we know." ”
It's all human spirits, Gu Qing sighed and said, "You have already eaten the fat of the Lu family." ”
"Eat it all." The merchant said.
"Good!" Gu Qing nodded, "Since I'm also on this ship, I have something to ask you." ”
"Master Hou, please speak." The merchants replied.
"You go to buy jade from the Western Regions and wool from the grassland, I have a big business to do." Gu Qing said to them, "This matter is low-key, I don't want this deal to be intercepted by others." ”
"Master Hou, don't worry." The merchants said, "We brought 100,000 yuan of silver, and we will hand it over to Hou Ye first, all of which are the money that we have cooperated with Hou Ye over the years, and we should also have Hou Ye's share." ”
"100,000 times, we can earn so much in these days of cooperation," Gu Qing wondered.
"Don't hide it from the marquis." The merchant's mind was seen through, and he replied embarrassedly, "The Lu family's family background was bought by us, and we found that some of the Lu family's merchants have a good family background, and we acquired a merchant of the Lu family, because of the chaos in Fanyang, we found a warehouse under that merchant, which was full of money, and we didn't dare to take it, so we ......"
"I took it." Gu Qing nodded.
A few days later, under the operation of Chang'an merchants, soap finally opened up sales in Chang'an, and the business improved all the way from sending to selling, and the soap with fragrance became a hot commodity with spirits.
In the palace, Wang Qin reported the progress of the matter to Li Eryu, and confirmed that the Lu family had the intention of rebellion, and now the head of the Lu family is already on the way to Chang'an, which is a big deal, but Li Er did not react much, "Your Majesty, that Li Yifu has a connection with Gu Qing, and as soon as the Lu family has an accident, this person went to the Cui family." ”
"Leave this kid alone." Of course, Li Er knew that there was Gu Qing's shadow in these things, and Gu Qing had always had an inexplicable force in his hands, and this force was still very hazy for Li Er.
Wang Qin nodded, these days it is becoming more and more difficult to figure out the thoughts of this emperor, the emperor's heart is unpredictable, maybe for Your Majesty, Gu Qing has other arrangements.
Empress Eldest Sun came to Li Er's side with dignified steps and took out the soap, "Your Majesty, this is a new thing made by Gu Qing's workshop. ”
"New thing" Li Er picked up the soap and observed it and smelled the fragrance again, and carefully smelled the smell of osmanthus, "This thing has a fragrance"
"Yes." Empress Changsun explained, "Now this thing is in demand in Chang'an, and the people in the palace also took a lot of effort to buy it, and I don't know what tricks Gu Qing used to retain the fragrance." ”
"It's this kid's plan to make a fortune again!" Li Er took the small soap in his hand, "What is this thing used for?" ”
"It's for washing the body and washing clothes." Empress Eldest Sun said, "This Gu Qing's mind of studying and making money is really incredible, hot water bottles, eyes, and this soap are all from the needs of daily life, which makes people refuse and makes people buy it calmly, the concubine has calculated an account, these things seem cheap, but they can become the necessities of the people's lives, compared to glass, these things have more long-term benefits." ”
"It's a shame that such a mind is used in business." Li Er took the soap in his hand, "Send a message to Gu Qing, and make special soap as a tribute in the palace." ”
"Your Majesty made an order this time, I'm afraid that Gu Qing, this kid, will beat his chest again." Empress Eldest Sun laughed quietly.
"This kid is in the eyes of money." Li Er said, "Fang Xuanling doesn't care about this disciple, if he uses this mind in the national policy of governing the world, I will be pleased, the few strategies he approved in Zhongshu Province at the beginning are really good, but this kid has been fishing for three days and drying nets for two days, leaving behind the official I gave him, and living a fairy life." ”
Gu Qing was like a wild horse that had escaped the leash, galloping on the way to make money.
"The concubine prepared some extra soap, and planned to give it to the sisters in the palace." Empress Eldest Sun said.
Li Er nodded, "You can call the shots about the affairs of the harem, you don't have to ask me, has King Wu returned, and the official roads in the south of the Yangtze River have also been repaired." ”
Wang Qin replied, "Your Majesty, His Royal Highness King Wu is already on his way back. ”
"Hmm!" Li Er said again, "Qingque has been in the academy these days, I heard that he is losing weight"
"Yes." Wang Qin also said, "His Royal Highness the King of Wei is following Gu Qing's method, and now the King of Wei eats less. ”
"As soon as the people of the Lu family arrived, they brought the head of the Lu family to me, and I want to ask him well!" Li Er's face was cold.
Wang Qin bowed down and went to arrange the matter, Li Er looked at the soap in his hand and fell into deep thought, and the eldest grandson queen stood aside and looked at the scenery in front of her, thinking about Gu Qing in her heart.
