Chapter 220: The Princes Are Powerful

Luoyang City, Qiu Yijiang, who came to the cloth village, is the largest cloth village business in the capital. There are more than a dozen of his semicolons, all over the capital.

Thanks to the blessing of Kaiyuan Cabinet Fang, he borrowed more than 100,000 copper coins, which made the business so big.

At this time, Laihe Buzhuang ushered in a person, seeing that this person's clothes were not like ordinary people, and the few people he brought were also dragons and phoenixes among people.

Doing business emphasizes harmony and wealth, Qiu Yijiang didn't dare to slack off, and arched his hand: "Childe, may I ask you..."

The person who came was none other than Li Yu, the king of Germany, with several other princes. Li Yu asked the servant to take out a piece of cloth: "Boss Qiu, come and take a look, how is the fabric of this cloth?" ”

Qiu Yijiang has been dealing with cloth all his life, and at a glance, he knew that this was a fabric made of high-grade craftsmanship, he picked up the fabric and looked left and right, and was really surprised and delighted: "What a perfect handiwork, this craft can be." There are so many pieces of cloth in my shop, but none of them can be so fine. ”

King Li Yu and several princes glanced at each other, he smiled and said to Qiu Yijiang: "Boss Qiu, Ming people don't say secret words, I am a weaver." We can supply you with the silk cloth in your shop, and it is all this kind of craftsmanship. ”

Qiu Yijiang was overjoyed when he heard this: "That's good, I don't know how many sons there are." As long as the price is right, I'll take it all. ”

It must have taken a lot of effort to make this fabric. Like this kind of material, it is hard to find, Qiu Yijiang expected that the other party would not have a lot, so he decided to eat it in one bite.

Who knew that Li Yu said: "Well, how much do you want." Even if we supply you with the whole Lai and Cloth Village, we will provide it all. To tell you the truth, I came this time just to discuss with Boss Qiu, and in the future, all the fabrics you have here will be supplied to you by us. ”

Everyone thought that Qiu Yijiang would be full of promises, where to find such a good thing. Unexpectedly, Qiu Yijiang sighed: "I can't hide it, Son's cloth and material naturally don't have to be picked, but my suppliers have been paid for many years." We've been friends for decades again. Besides, where do you have such a big power that you can supply me? To tell the truth, in the entire Luoyang City, I came and Buzhuang accounted for two percent of the market. If these children of eunuchs are the sons of eunuchs, I will come to Buzhuang and occupy ninety percent of the market share, you can think about it. Your material is really good, but if you want to supply such a big market as me, I'm afraid that no one can do it if you look at the whole Datang. ”

Li Yu is the prince, and he is the brother of today's son. I didn't like to bargain with these merchants in the first place, and I already felt that it was a bargain to do business with them, so he sneered and stopped talking. Next to him, his subordinates stood up with a strong attitude: "You can take a good look, these are all His Royal Highness the Prince of Luoyang City, and our master is the brother of today's son." As long as we can say that what can be offered to you is what can be offered, how can you not know how to lift! ”

Qiu Yijiang was shocked when he heard this, and hurriedly saluted: "It turns out that you are His Royal Highness the Prince, the villain should die, the villain has eyes and does not know Mount Tai, and please forgive His Royal Highness!" ”

Li Yu originally didn't want to reveal his identity, and the status of businessmen in feudal society was not high. If it is known that the prince himself has come to discuss business with people, it will inevitably make people laugh.

"Okay, Boss Qiu, this king also knows your concerns. You're afraid that you will use too many materials and we won't be able to supply them. So you don't dare to offend your former suppliers, isn't that reasonable? King Li Zhen asked.

Qiu Yijiang nodded busily: "His Royal Highness the Prince forgives the sin, the villain has this concern." Your Highness, you don't know, they all say that this buyer is the uncle. But when it comes to me, these suppliers are the masters. To tell the truth, there is a shortage of fabrics in the capital, and these suppliers are all like uncles. If Your Highnesses can afford to provide a small shop, the villain will naturally be grateful. But I am afraid that His Royal Highness will suddenly cut off the goods for the villain, and the villain will go back to those suppliers, and they will turn their faces ruthlessly. ”

What he said is the truth, the capital is not what it used to be. Luoyang City has gradually become prosperous and rich, and the people's consumption power has been greatly enhanced. Especially those dignitaries, wealthy businessmen, and wealthy businessmen, they are not bad for money. This fabric business is in short supply in Luoyang City, and those suppliers have hoarded Juqi and raised the price of cloth. As a downstream Qiu Yijiang, he can only endure to continue to raise the price of cloth, and now a piece of cloth in Luoyang City has reached a consistent 200 yuan, even so, it is still in short supply.

This Li Yu said that they were supplying Qiu Yijiang, and if they were supplied for a few months, they suddenly ran out of stock. Qiu Yijiang went back to those suppliers, and they were afraid that they would not buy his account again.

The pious king Li Yu is more good at business, and he nodded: "Shopkeeper Qiu's words are reasonable, so be it." How about you come with us to see what we can do and decide whether to work with us or not? ”

"Yes, yes, Boss Qiu will take a trip with His Royal Highness the Prince to see the perfect weaving factory. If Boss Qiu thinks that we can cooperate, we will give you a monopoly on the business of Buzhuang in the future. Seeing that the business was going to be yellow, Li Yu, the king of Yi, couldn't help but be anxious.

Qiu Yijiang was still hesitating, and King Li Yu frowned: "In this way, I will give you another two percent reduction in your supply price, no, fifty percent!" What do you think? ”

As soon as these words came out, Qiu Yijiang was shocked. Such a delicate cloth is indeed hard to find even with lanterns. This prince even lowered the price by 50%, which means that only half the price can be purchased.

If the purchase price is reduced by half, your own cloth bank can follow and reduce the price. In this way, I am afraid that the cloth business of the entire Luoyang City has become his and the cloth village.

Then King Li Yi and King Jing Li Mi felt that the drop was too high, but Li Yu waved his hand: "Boss Qiu is a cheerful person, if you agree, you will go with us to see our weaving factory." If you don't think it's suitable, this business will be treated as if we haven't talked about it, and we will leave! ”

As soon as he heard that he was leaving, Qiu Yijiang hurriedly greeted him: "Go, go, the villain will follow." ”

Yihe, in the southern suburbs of Luoyang City, Prince Li Yu and their water-powered textile wheel are here.

Qiu Yijiang made a sedan chair and was staggered out of the suburbs. He was a little flustered, what weaving factory would be here? Could it be that these princes are not here to do business, but want to kidnap tickets? Judging by their dress and style, it doesn't look like a fake, why is it?

While he was thinking wildly, he suddenly heard the rumbling sound of water, as if countless grinding machines were rotating. Qiu Yijiang couldn't help but lift the sedan curtain, and then he was stunned.

More than a dozen hydraulic windmills are constantly rotating under the turbulent river of the Yi River. Dozens of young men in Tsing Yi were busy back and forth, the sedan chair stopped, and Qiu Yijiang walked down in a daze.

Then he saw a scene that shocked him, the huge hydro-textile carts had dozens of spindles on each cart turning back and forth. An ordinary spinning wheel, three spindles on one spinning wheel is considered a lot.

What's even more terrifying is that the spinning wheel does not need to be rotated by human power at all, and under the strong thrust of the water, the windmill rotates day and night. Under the continuous rotation of dozens of spindles, the green cloth was spun out of the spinning wheel one by one.

For a while, Qiu Yijiang's body shook a little, which was terrifying. In this way, the shipment of these spinning wheels must not be scared to death.

It's just that only three of the more than ten spinning wheels are working, and the other hydro spinning wheels are idle.

King Li Yu pointed to these spinning wheels and said, "Boss Qiu, let's open the skylight and say something." Truth be told, our current capacity is only enough to supply the weaving capacity of three spinning wheels. A spinning wheel can spin 100 catties of hemp in a day and night, because we have limited funds. If Boss Qiu is willing to cooperate with us, these more than ten spinning wheels can be around the clock to supply you with a small Laihe cloth village, I think this king can still be more than enough. ”

Qiu Yijiang only felt that his throat was a little dry: "His Royal Highness..." he didn't take these princes in his eyes at first, and he didn't even ask Li Yuming.

Li Yu said angrily: "This is our Prince De, as well as King Di, King Qian, King Yi, King Sui, King Jing, King Qi, and King Ya. Our Highness befriended you as a prince, and that was the creation you cultivated when you cultivated! ”

Qiu Yijiang hurriedly laughed: "Yes, yes, your Highnesses are fine." The villain is blind to his own dog eyes, so let's do it, Prince De, this business villain did. This deposit, no, the villain can pay the full amount. As long as His Highness is willing to cooperate with the villain, the villain will pay the full monthly amount in advance. In this way, His Highness can also purchase cotton and linen, and these spinning wheels will be able to operate. I wonder what your Highnesses think? ”

Several princes were overjoyed when they heard this, and after being busy for several months, a stone finally fell to the ground in their hearts. They have calculated this hydro-powered spinning mill, and the profits can only be described as terrifying.

Li Yu, the eldest king, is the eldest, and he is in charge of everything: "Okay, since Boss Qiu said so, then let's talk about this business." ”

Qiu Yijiang was a shrewd businessman, and he was afraid that the princes would regret it for a long night, so he hurriedly saluted and said: "Your Royal Highness, it is better for the villain to draw up a contract when he goes back later." Let's sign and draw a pledge, so that we can make a certificate. ”

Everyone was about to happily agree, but the pious king Li Yu stopped everyone: "Boss Qiu doesn't have to be in a hurry, in this way, let's go back to the house first." As for this peace agreement, the business has already been negotiated anyway, and it will be the same tomorrow or a few days later. ”

Qiu Yijiang scratched his ears and cheeks anxiously, and he couldn't wait to find paper, pen and ink to sign the contract now. But since the pious king said so, he did not dare to say anything more.

Li Yu knew that this younger brother was shrewd, so he no longer objected when he said this: "Boss Qiu, you can take a look at it casually, there is no rush in the contract." ”

Qiu Yijiang was overjoyed when he heard this, and hurriedly studied around the several water-powered spinning wheels. Seeing the fabric weaving out in a steady stream, he still couldn't understand the trick after watching it for a long time. Many of the brackets are inside the spinning wheel, and without drawings, he can't understand them even if he looks at them for a month.

"Third child, why don't you let this Boss Qiu sign the contract? Let's save this worry after signing it," King Jing asked in confusion.

Li Yu smiled and said: "These businessmen are polite on the surface, but they don't know that there are no businessmen or treacherous. The more we rushed the ducks to the shelves, the more he thought we were in a hurry to beg him. Forgive him first, let him be anxious for a few days. ”

Dewang Li Yu gave a thumbs up: "The third brother is so smart and born to do business." ”

Then Wang Li Yi said excitedly: "That is, the third brother has always been smart, let's forgive him like this, this Boss Qiu will not dare to bargain with us in the future." ”

Li Yu looked at Qiu Yijiang not far away: "Bargaining ? If he refuses to do it, there is still a cloth village in the capital, and others will not be able to ask for it. You wait and see, within three sentences, this Boss Qiu will definitely still mention the signing of the contract. ”

Sure enough, this Qiu Yijiang rushed over after a while: "Your Highnesses, the villain looks at the contract, since it is the same since it is signed early and late, why don't the villains hold a banquet in Fengju tonight, and sign this contract by the way?" ”
