Chapter 53: A Belated Storm

The new army's live-ammunition training has become routine, and as long as you get close to the Xuanwu Gate every day, you will hear from a distance the dull sound of gunfire coming from inside the military courtyard, like bursting beans.

Li Er regarded this army as extremely important, so after learning that Zhao Chen was limiting the number of bullets per person to shoot training to five every day, he asked Zhao Chen to add two more.

Li Er didn't say what he wanted Zhao Chen to do if he wanted Zhao Chen to train the army as soon as possible, but from Li Er's impatient attitude, plus the shipbuilding drawings he asked Zhao Chen for before, even if Li Er didn't say anything, in fact, there were some things that Zhao Chen could probably guess.

Zhao Chen also agreed to Li Er about the arsenal, but the specific date was temporarily postponed, at least, after the new army was thoroughly trained.

Because, Li Er is now waiting for the new army to come out, so he doesn't want Zhao Chen to allocate his energy to other places at this time.

March is a good season, in such a season, the spring flowers are blooming, the earth is warm, and everywhere is a picture full of hope,?? However, it was also in such a hopeful season that a storm that Li Chengqian had been brewing for a long time finally opened quietly in Chang'an.

When he went out in the morning, Xiao Zhao Xi was a little uncomfortable, so at noon, the more Zhao Chen thought about it, the more uneasy he became, so he came back from the military courtyard.

Then, when his carriage entered Xinghuafang, he happened to see a few familiar people coming in from another exit of the workshop, and several people were holding a cloth in their arms.

Zhao Chen was thinking about Xiao Zhao Xi in his heart, therefore. I didn't think much else, so I sat in the carriage. Directly entered the Hou Mansion.

However, when he was sure that Xiao Zhao Xi was fine. When I came out of the inner house, and then saw a few little girls in the house, all of them were happy, shouting for new dresses to wear, I realized the seriousness of the problem.

Nowadays, if you don't celebrate the New Year, although these subordinates in your own house are treated better than those outside. From time to time, they will be rewarded.

But it's not so good that in this idle month, it's so extravagant that it is to give its own children and tear cloth to make dresses!

What's more, during the Chinese New Year, Qin Yuyan saw that they didn't give the babies a few feet of cloth for the sake of making dresses. I can't give up the New Year, how can I be reluctant at this time?

And the only reason for this is that in today's market. The price of cloth has been so low that these people who are frugal on weekdays are tempted.

"Yuyan. What's going on? "It's okay in the afternoon, Zhao Chen simply didn't plan to go out. I changed into a home robe and made a cup of hot tea. Sitting in the flower hall with his wife and children at home, he looked at the happy little girls over there and asked.

"I'm going to make a new dress, so I'm naturally happy!" Hearing Zhao Chen's words, Qin Yuyan suddenly touched Xiao Zhao Xi's chubby cheeks with doting eyes, and said without raising his head.

"Well, I'm asking, why are they so willing to spend money all of a sudden?" Hearing Qin Yuyan's words, Zhao Chen pouted and smiled, and then paused to look at Qin Yuyan and asked, "During the Chinese New Year, I didn't see that they were willing to spend money!" ”

"It's not because of my husband!" Zhao Chen's words fell, and before Qin Yuyan could speak, Xiangcheng on the side had already said: "Since Husband is like this, I'm afraid that the entire Chang'an people are busy tearing cloth to make dresses!" ”

"Becauseβ€”me?" Zhao Chen was originally still a confused person, but he didn't expect that when he heard Xiangcheng's headless words, he was even more confused, and looked at Xiangcheng with a somewhat stunned expression, and pointed to his nose.

This is too fucking nonsense, I don't know what happened from beginning to end, but as a result, I inexplicably became the initiator.

"That's right!" It's good that Zhao Chen didn't mention it, but as soon as he mentioned it, Xiangcheng had a little doubt, looked at Zhao Chen and asked: "Husband, what are you doing, taking out so much cloth at once, and buying it at such a low price, let ... It's all incomprehensible! ”

"I'm going to go!" When Zhao Chen heard this, he couldn't stay calm anymore, and when he spoke, he put the teacup on the stone table, sat up straight, and beckoned to Xiangcheng: "Come on, come on, what's the situation, you come and tell me about it!" ”

At worst, it is malicious competition, and at worst, it is a serious undermining of the market economy.

Moreover, the most important thing is that under this seemingly ordinary vicious competition, in fact, it is aimed at the nobles of the major families, so this is especially to put yourself on the muzzle.

"Don't you know?" Seeing Zhao Chen suddenly sit up, his face was obviously unkind, and Xiangcheng's face also changed, but he still looked at Zhao Chen suspiciously and asked.

"Know a fart!" When Zhao Chen heard this, he said unceremoniously: "Your husband is busy with the affairs of the military academy and the palace every day, how can he have such idle time to do such a hateful thing!" ”

The three women who originally thought that their husbands were the initiators, heard Zhao Chen's words, looked at each other, and suddenly showed shocked eyes.

"Just say it as a concubine!" Glancing at each other, Xiangcheng still had a shocked look on his face, looked at Zhao Chen and said, "Our husband, how can you do such a thing, lose money and make money!" ”

"Focus!" When Zhao Chen heard Xiangcheng's words, the muscles in his cheeks couldn't help twitching, and then he looked at Xiangcheng and said directly: "What's going on with the cloth?" ”

"It was Sister-in-law Rui who heard a few people in the workshop say yesterday!" Seeing Zhao Chen's face, he became a little impatient, and Qin Yuyan on the side hurriedly answered: "It is said that there is a new door curtain in the east and west markets in the past few days, and the cloth sold in it is the same as that on the fourth floor, but because of the new opening, it is being sold at a low price!" ”

"The newly opened door curtain is said to have been opened by Chang'an Hou?" Hearing Qin Yuyan's words, Zhao Chen's brows couldn't help frowning slightly, and then he looked at Qin Yuyan and asked.

This is the crux of the matter, he doesn't care who sells cloth, he doesn't care how much he sells, the only thing he cares about is that someone pulled in without his knowledge.

"......" Hearing Zhao Chen's words, the three women in front of him immediately glanced at each other, and then collectively shook their heads at Zhao Chen.

"Then how do you think I'm doing it?" Zhao Chen saw the three women in front of him, all shook their heads at him, and suddenly their faces were ugly, and they looked at the three women in confusion and asked.

"The cloth thing, isn't it only on the fourth floor?" Hearing Zhao Chen's words, Qin Yuyan hesitated slightly, and seemed to feel that they were preconceived before, and they were a little too taken for granted, so they looked at Zhao Chen a little embarrassed and said embarrassedly.

"That's right!" Qin Yuyan's voice fell, and Xiangcheng on the side also spoke: "And listen to them, the sales method of the two new stores is good... I don't think I've ever heard of it before! ”

"Okay!" Hearing Qin Yuyan and Xiangcheng's words, Zhao Chen immediately reacted a little, which was actually caused by habitual thinking.

Because, the cloth is only available on the fourth floor, because only Zhao Chen can think of such a novel sales method, so under these two elements, it is natural to associate this matter with Zhao Chen.

Moreover, Zhao Chen also estimated that in the entire Chang'an, not only the three women in the family would think of him like this, I am afraid that many people will think of him for the first time.

What the hell is this, it's really a disaster!

"I'm going out!" Thinking of this, Zhao Chen immediately got up from the chair and walked towards the bedroom of the inner house, and when the three women in the flower hall were stunned, they had already changed into robes and walked out of the inner house.

"By the way, in the past few days, people from the mansion, no matter who it is, will let Zhang Lu block it!" Coming out of the inner house, Zhao Chen looked at the three women in front of him as if he remembered something, and said, "Before this matter is resolved, it's best not to go out to meet people!" ”

"Xianggong, is it so serious?" Hearing Zhao Chen's tone, the three women in the flower hall suddenly changed their faces, looked at Zhao Chen and asked.

"Cutting off someone's money is like killing your parents!" When Zhao Chen heard this, he smiled bitterly at the three women in the hall and said, "I hope he doesn't go too far!" ”

When these words fell, Zhao Chen immediately walked towards the outside of the mansion, however, when he was about to walk to the gate of the mansion, he suddenly turned around and said loudly to Xiangcheng in the hall: "Remember Niangniang, don't go for the time being!" ”

Li Chengqian, the bastard, unknowingly, calculated all the noble families in Chang'an, including his own mother, Empress Changsun, who was fat, and simply made Zhao Chen admire the five-body throw.

If he hadn't been involved, Zhao Chen would definitely applaud this bastard with both hands!

It is conceivable that the opening of cloth shops in the east and west cities has been linked to the means of selling at low prices, and under such a crazy move, the entire noble family has almost lost all their money.

In the March season, it was the time when last year's grassland wool arrived in Chang'an and entered various textile workshops, but at this time, Li Chengqian's textile factory sold cloth at a low price.

The emergence of cloth will quickly occupy, Chang'an's low-end market, coupled with the low price of cloth sales, will almost occupy an absolute advantage of sheep textiles, completely driven out.

In the past, woolen textiles, which were all the rage in Chang'an, would lose all their competitiveness, and there were only two options left, either to fight a price war with the cloth, or to wait to be put in the warehouse and completely gnawed into a pile of Western velvet by rats.

And no matter which one, the result is actually the same, that is, there is no return!

Choose the right place, the right time, as soon as you make a move, you will go straight to the point, Li Chengqian's hand, it is Zhao Chen, and he is a little caught off guard! (To be continued.) )
