The poor big families have to find a way to quell the war in the courtyard - so many people plan to spend some money. Go to one more mirror like this, and forget it, most people's families are the most vicious, and they are nothing more than one or two. One more should settle the bill.
It's just that when they sent a housekeeper to look around for the Fucheng store. only to find that this kind of mirror could not be bought on the market at all. Some people even went to see Guangzhou. However, even if it is the Guangzhou Mansion. The party with the most overseas curiosities. I can't get 1 at all.
The inquiries here have aroused the interest of the merchants over there. After listening to the requests relayed by the housekeepers, they all said: Such a silver and clear glass mirror can only be made by Westerners. And that's not a low price. I'm afraid that the rich people of a small party like Hainan Qiongzhou can afford it.
In fact, about the value of these silver mirrors. The big guys have been speculating. Of course, they wouldn't believe the dozen gold that Shorthair boasted about at the banquet. If it's really so valuable, people will give it as a gift? And it's a dozen copies in one delivery?
But when the people they sent returned from Guangzhou to see the world. Brought back the evaluation of the jewelry dealer over there - this kind of thing is not sold in the first place. Even if it is really sold. I'm afraid it will take two thousand taels of silver to get it. The main family in general. It's really impossible to afford it.
As a result, the contradictions in the families of the big families have not subsided. On the contrary, it was greatly escalated because of this - originally for the defeat of the one. The man also gave some gold and silver jewelry. Or two more private money and the like can still be fooled. But now it's so expensive. Then the original compensation will be greatly increased - women are always insensitive to this kind of thing.
β¦β¦ In a word. Daming Chongzhen for three years. From August until the end of the year. It was a very unquiet time for those big families in Qiongzhou Mansion on Hainan Island: in addition to dealing with those short-haired old men who captured the mansion. It is necessary to calm down the commotion of the tenant farmers in the village. Their own backyards were also lit up by fire...... Of course. For the culprits who caused a qiΔ. This is exactly what they want to see.
As more and more housekeepers and servants came to the city to inquire about the so-called "silver mirror box". The agreed cooperation pairs: Xu Jing Mo Peng. and related carpentry rows. Jewelry store and other bosses. Several people have to go to the state government every day to visit. Inquire when this side will be shipped. Fulfill the promise they made before: allow them to sell their goods.
Since the occupation of Qiongzhou Mansion. Xie Xi and others have always taken the most cautious attitude in dealing with the relationship with the public, especially in the case of merchants. It is treated in line with the concept of attracting investment from the modern government.
This cautious attitude finally showed its effect after a few months - if the previous Ming Dynasty government was changed. Those people didn't dare to step into the gate of the government casually. The Ming Dynasty had always adhered to a discriminatory policy towards merchants. During Zhu Yuanzhang's time, merchants were even forbidden to wear satin clothes. Although it was gradually relaxed, the merchant class was still discriminated against at the meeting, especially in the eyes of the government. A merchant is a bag of money that can be extorted at any time.
In the past, you only had to step through those two red lacquered gates. Ten of the ** will be peeled off a layer of skin. That's pretty good. If it involves lawsuits and complaints. It is possible to go bankrupt or even give it away. Merchants in the Ming Dynasty were extremely honest. A large part of Cheng DΓΉ was also forced out by this kind of bad bureaucracy. They don't dare to go to court.
But now. Changed to short-haired masters. This yamen has become safe to enter and exit - shorthair is even specially arranged with 1 waiting room, where guests can also drink tea and taste small snacks. Merchants are a very sensitive group. They soon felt the egalitarian attitude. Naturally, he was much bolder.
ββ¦β¦ Although it also costs money. But never in vain. Give money and do things. Or simply do things first and collect the money later...... Shorthair is still very good at doing things. Although he is still an official master. But he acts like a fellow of my generation......"
For some small merchants who have recently come to negotiate with them. Xu Jing, Mo Dapeng and others all bragged at them as if they were familiar with the way. It seems that I have been working with this side for many years...... But in fact, deep down in their hearts, they were still a little nervous - although they had accepted everything they had accepted before, such as invitations to dinner and gifts. The procedures that should be taken seem to be in place. But the two sides have not really worked together before. What kind of things will the shorts come up with? They don't know the bottom of their hearts.
But. All worries. All doubts. After inviting them to visit the dock warehouse, they all disappeared - the big leader of the shorthair. That old Mr. Li, Xie Pang Wenlin and other leaders personally accompanied them over. This glory alone was enough to flatter the merchants.
And when they came to Baishatou and walked into the newly built storehouse. These businessmen completely forgot any previous thoughts. No matter what they thought beforehand. At this moment, there was only one expression left - jaw-dropping.
"This ...... Are these ready to be sold? β
Even the trader for many years. Guangzhou, Jiangnan, Beijing, etc. have all run. He has always been known as a well-informed Xu Jing and Xu officials. At this time, I can only open my mouth wide. I can't even notice the saliva coming out. He has always looked down on those country men who have never seen the world, but his image at this time is even worse than those people.
What is piled up in this warehouse is cotton cloth.
A large part of the family's business project is the cloth village. Although Chinese silk is famous, it is the most sold among the people. It can also be cotton.
When Xu Jing and Xu Xin'an recovered from the initial shock. Immediately rushed to a pile of fabric. Didn't even ask the owner of the warehouse. But no one here minds his somewhat rude behavior - Yan Wenchang two days ago. The reaction of Wang Xinzhi and others was similar to now.
"Sure enough, it's a fine cotton...... How can there be such a dense yarn count? How is this knitted? β
Xu Jing is really an expert. At a glance, you can see the difference between this cloth and Ben's homespun cloth. Professor Li thought he was not satisfied with the quality of the fabric. Somewhat apologetic explanation:
"These are woven fabrics. Even the yarn and thread are made in batches by machine. The yarn itself is relatively thick. The woven cloth is also on the heavy side. It's really not as light and breathable as hand-woven fabric......"
Unexpectedly, Xu Jing immediately turned back. His face was full of surprise:
"It's heavy! Of course, the thicker and stronger the cloth, the better! I wore silk directly with light and breathable. People who buy cloth hope that the heavier the better. β
Professor Li laughed. He forgot that the ancient people used to soak the fabric with rice water to make it thicker and more stiff when washing clothes. This is the case with the so-called "pulp washing". If you really don't care about keeping warm, rich people wear pixia and yarn in winter. I don't use cotton either.
"This fabric is good. Our Qiongzhou cloth is famous. Ben's income is one penny and five dollars. When it is shipped to Guangzhou, it can be sold for two dollars of silver. Your cloth is much denser than the cloth of Qiongzhou. I think I can sell it for at least two or five or three dollars......"
Speaking of this, Xu Jing was stunned. Only then did I think that I didn't seem to be the owner of the goods, so I raised my head and piled up a smile:
"This ...... I wonder if these are the "distribution" models that you have mentioned? Two dollars and five horses. My Xu family is all-inclusive! β
Pang Yu and Ao Sayan grinned behind them. Just now, Xu Da "seemed to be excited at first glance. But the two have been putting together intelligence work lately. It's not completely unknown to the market in Guangzhou - the official price of a cloth there is three coins and silver has not changed for many years. Private bargaining is even higher. The quality of this woven fabric is good, and it must be no problem to sell it for three dollars and five dollars - the old guy is here to set up an ambush. As soon as you turn around, it's a profit of 3. No wonder businessmen have made a fortune these days.
But he didn't say it directly. Just laughing:
"It is intended to be distributed. However, Xu Yuanwai's family can't eat it. β
Xu Jing's face immediately showed a look of righteous indignation. Obviously, they are very dissatisfied with the strength of their family. I just didn't wait for him to speak. Ling Ning waved his hand behind him first:
"This warehouse is more than 1,200 horses. There are ten libraries in the back, totaling about 13,000. If we ship all the cotton we received this time. This number can be doubled by the end of the year......"
Xu Dayuan immediately stopped talking. He could eat more than 10,000 pieces of cotton cloth if he tried his best. But when will it be sold? To know in this day and age. Most ordinary families are still accustomed to weaving their own yarn to make clothes. And Shorthair clearly has other good things to come up with. He didn't want to take up all his money.
Afterwards. In the Iron Tool Library. There was a similar scene. But this time the performer is Mo Dapeng. This guy's family has been engaged in the smuggling of metal utensils, and I heard that he has also minted copper coins privately. He is an expert in metalworking.
However, it seems that the more expert it is. The more powerful it becameβMo Dapeng actually used his fingers to verify the sharpness of the blade of a sickle. As a result, the people next to him came before they could stop him. It was cut off with a small piece of meat.
But the fat man didn't care. Anyway, he has a lot of meat on him. While someone next to him helped him bandage. Another hand was also stretched out. Thumbs up and praise:
"Good! Good knife edge...... It's clearly not a hundred steel. Can it be so sharp? β
- Xu Jing just wants to suppress the price, this is good. I asked directly about the secret. However, this is explained by a bunch of current nouns. What is added to the carbon element to guide the crystal rearrangement and so on...... Mo, who only listened, only rolled his eyes. But it's not easy to say that Shorthair lied to him.
Fortunately, after such forging. When they finally came to the storeroom where the glassware was stacked. A group of people are finally more self-contained. When they see the ingenuity of the work. It's as crystal clear as a work of art. But there is no shortage of all kinds of glassware with value. and large pieces of colorless clear glass and silver-bottomed glass mirrors. Just a little sparkle from the eyes. But he didn't dare to lean on it again.
Visited until now. Originally, the businessmen who thought differently were only concerned about one question - how to cooperate with shorthair? Some people were afraid of being blackmailed or cheated. But by this time they had already made up their minds - as long as the other party opened the plate. Take it anyway.
β no matter what the cost. As long as I can have a relationship with short hair. That one warehouse after another. But it's all out-and-out gold and silver! ββ
