Chapter 234: Business Investigation
The cloth shop guy is disgraced, Song Qianhu's is not very good-looking, Lao Tzu is here to conduct business investigations, or even to invest, you don't say that Pizhou sent someone over to negotiate investment promotion, and you actually treat me as a safe silver?
Lao Tzu has always copied money directly, who can value your little money? Isn't this a fucking insult!
Song Qing defended himself loudly in his heart, but he still had to bring out a kind smile on his face, for fear of scaring this guy, and after a long time, he saw that the guy finally had a human appearance, so he said: "I am a merchant from Xuzhou, and I came here to see the business, not a person who collects safe silver, little brother should not panic." ”
"Are you...... Travelling merchant? The guy was still suspicious, but he didn't dare to say anything, so he hurriedly invited everyone in, arranged a seat for Song Qing, hurriedly went to make tea and pour water, and stood aside with low eyebrows, waiting for the merchant uncle's lecture.
Song Qinglai came to this store purely temporarily, but he couldn't ask anything, he didn't think about this cloth, and he could only ask how much various fabrics were worth, whether they were cheaper or more expensive than Xuzhou, and he didn't count in his heart, but his current identity as a merchant was bound not to be like this, so he had nothing to say: "Don't you sell clothes here?" ”
The guy was stunned for a moment, and then grinned: "The guests are joking, how many of us in Daming are buying clothes to wear outside?" Not all of them bought materials and took them home to make them, there was only one ready-to-wear shop all over the city, and they were all specialized in making silk and satin, only for those rich families. Moreover, the rich families also have a tailor at home, and they will not easily go to his house, which is actually a cloth seller. The boss can only write his own craft, so he can make two bodies for others, and earn some hard-earned money. ”
"And such a thing?" Song Qing was really a little surprised, turned his head to look at Ding Kui, Ding Daguan didn't say anything, but he had already expressed very clearly about that look: You don't even know the fucking way, how can you live so big?
Song Qing really didn't pay much attention to this. After he came through, he mixed in the barracks, basically wearing a military uniform every day, and today this robe was specially ordered to find someone to get it. I don't know who it came from, but if you think about it carefully, it seems that it was really like this in ancient times, and women in every family could do needlework. I bought all the fabrics and made them at home. Including Luo Xiaobei, who also bought flower cloth before, but didn't buy a flower dress directly, it seems that there are really few ready-to-wear stores.
This is a way to make money, there is no shortage of manpower on his side, how many women are idle at home, and his mother Song Li is the best example, and he still helps to do some things when he is busy with farming, especially during the slack season. That's almost all day at home, and all kinds of stealing things often start from this.
If only all these women could be organized. The reason why everyone doesn't buy ready-to-wear clothes is just a habit that has always been a habit, and how many tailors can there be in the ready-to-wear shops opened by idle traders? He can only make a few things for those rich families, and he can't do it in large quantities, but he has the advantage of the guard, and even the bandit wives in the cottage can use it, which can be regarded as helping the women find something.
He is really a genius, but this guy is also good, if it weren't for chatting with him, maybe he wouldn't have thought of this, Song Qing was very happy with the plan he thought of, and ordered casually: "Lao Ding, reward this little brother with two taels of silver!" ”
Ding Kui was very surprised, he didn't know how to say such a few words, why did he want to reward the guy with two taels of silver, although Song Qing was arrogant in his money, but he never spent money in a wet manner, this is really rare today, but after all, it is two taels of silver, after a few days of wealth, Ding Daguan didn't care much about this, and casually took out a piece of silver from the blanket and handed it over.
But the little guy was even more surprised, he couldn't figure out why he could get these two taels of silver, although he had nearly two months' wages, but there was no reason for this, after all, he was not very steady, staring at Song Qing bitterly for a long time, suddenly his eyes were straight, and his heart was also shocked, so he knelt down and kowtowed, crying and said: "Uncle, the villain doesn't dare to ask for your silver, the villain will marry a wife and have children in the future, and continue the incense for the family, I really can't do that kind of thing!" ”
What is that kind of thing, Song Qing really pondered for a while at first, but after thinking about it, he felt disgusted, and said angrily: "Phew, don't pee and take pictures, uncle really has that problem, and he can't look down on you like this, the silver is rewarded for you, love it, hurry up and get your shopkeeper back, I have something to tell him!" ”
The guy flew out of the house, and when he left, he took the piece of silver with him, anyway, this guest officer is looking for the shopkeeper, even if people like to be older, there is nothing else to do, seeing that this kid slipped away, Song Qing couldn't cry or laugh, and saw that everyone's eyes were a little weird, so he had to change the topic and said: "Is the cloth in this store cheaper or more expensive than our Xuzhou?" ”
Luo Xiaobei was simple-minded, but he didn't come up with anything, and immediately replied: "Naturally cheap, and a lot cheaper, this is the wharf, there are many goods to and fro, if you sell it to the west and the north, it is estimated that it will become more and more expensive, but it is cheap to buy it locally in Pizhou, otherwise your subordinates will not buy fabrics here." ”
Although Ding Kui couldn't guess that Song Qing was going to do ready-to-wear business, he could also guess that this was to make some articles on the fabric, and then said: "The fabric here is sold in Xuzhou, how much can be earned, but if ordinary merchants add labor and the like, they won't make much, our dog camp is different, buy the fabric and let everyone take it back, it must be able to make money, in fact, if you really want to do this business, it is best to go to Suzhou, where there are many workshops specializing in weaving, and it is cheap to buy cloth directly there." ”
"Suzhou is too far away, I can't take care of it for a while, buy some in Pizhou first, take it back to test the water, and see if it's good to sell." Song Qing took a general look at the fabrics in this store, there were all kinds of clothes, and he was more or less satisfied, and asked: "If we have ready-to-wear clothes in Xuzhou, the price is not much more expensive, and the style is relatively novel, and the appearance is better than what you make at home, will you buy it?" ”
"Brother Qing'er, you don't want to buy and sell ready-to-wear clothes, right?" Ding Kui asked with some surprise: "This business is generally not done, didn't the guy just say that there is only one ready-to-wear shop in the entire Pizhou City, but we don't have one in Xuzhou, can this kind of business make money?" Even if you make a few clothes, how much money can you make? ”
"Naturally, a few pieces can't make much money, that's because the scale is small, but if I do hundreds or even tens of thousands of pieces, do you think I can make money?" Song Qing said, seeing that everyone looked incredulous, and said: "Don't forget that those old ladies in our guard are idle at home all day, you said that if you find some work for them and earn some money to supplement the family, will they do it?" Xiaobei, just talk about your mother, find such a job for her, and take everyone to make clothes together, will she do it? ”
Luo Xiaobei probably thought about it, but nodded and said: "After following the adults, there is no shortage of money to spend at home, but if there is such a job, my mother is probably still willing to do it, and my sister is also willing, it is better than being idle all day long." ”
"Where's Lao Ding's house?"
"Eighty percent is also willing......" Ding Kui was very reluctant to answer this question, but he couldn't answer truthfully, after all, he was the only one in his family who had a literary and artistic youth plot, and the others were all very realistic, just like Luo Xiaobei said, even if life was better, if he could earn a few melons and two dates, there would still be people to do it.
These people now belong to the advanced households that have been lifted out of poverty and become rich, but the family still maintains this habit, and the rest of the women of ordinary military families can be imagined, and for a while they all felt that Song Qing's idea was very reliable, saying that it was hundreds of thousands or even tens of thousands of clothes, it was really not impossible.
Seeing that everyone seemed to approve of his plan, Song Qing immediately ordered: "When the shopkeeper comes back, talk to him about the cloth first, and after lunch, go to me to find a painter and embroidery, and offer a high salary to bring all of them back to Xuzhou. ”
This thing sounds a little incredible, but since Song Qing has risen, he has done a lot of incredible things, whether it is killing people on the battlefield, or later Bibo Pool and supermarkets, they are all done when everyone can't see the future, and even simply don't look at Lu, long-term trust has been cultivated, since Lord Song said so, others really have nothing to refute, because you can't find what this person hasn't done before, even if it's Ding Daguan, he is also comforting himself with 'capable people can do anything'.
After a while, the shopkeeper finally came back, Song Qing immediately proposed to buy a large amount of cloth, the shopkeeper danced happily, and also gave a very favorable price, Song Qing paid a deposit, agreed to send the cloth to the dog camp outside the city tomorrow, and chatted with the shopkeeper a few words, then took people out of the house, and when he walked to the door of the store, he happened to see the guy lying in front of the door nervously, the old man with a pouting buttocks, should be eavesdropping on the conversation, it is estimated that there is still a little bit of meaning to see Song Qing's true face.
Song Qing laughed very mischievously: "You lie on your stomach like this, if a man rushes out from behind, won't you suffer a loss?" ”
The guy's face was red, and he fled in shame, Song Qianhu looked up to the sky and smiled, many people passed by here, and turned back again, but a few girls standing in front of a green building on the opposite street were scratching their heads and making gestures in this direction, reminding Song Qing to spend his money in a serious place...... (To be continued......)
