Previously, because he was worried that it would be too eye-catching, people would guess the key information of Ye Teng or Tianma City, so he handed over the auction of the war horse to the Yan family, who had a good relationship with players.

But Ye Teng's own Ye's firm, due to the lack of hot commodities, whether it is the acquisition of resources or the auction of weapons and equipment, it is always inefficient, tepid, and unpopular.

After thinking about it again, Ye Teng decided to hand over the long-term scarce product, cultivating cattle, to them for sale in the next five or eight years. At present, in addition to his own use, there are about 10,000 gelding cattle in the Yeteng territory, as well as 12,000 cows and breeding cattle that can be used for grazing.

After calculation, Ye Teng decided to auction 5,000 ploughing cattle in the first batch, and then supply them at a scale of about 1,000 per month, bringing long-term popularity to Ye's Commercial Bank. In this way, it can not only sell farming cattle, but also attract popularity, and by the way, drive the high efficiency of purchasing resources and selling weapons and equipment.

After several wars, Ye Teng collected weapons and equipment from the battlefield piled up, 90% of them were ordinary, 9% were black-iron, 1% were bronze-level, and there were also silver-level and yellow-level, but unfortunately they were all kept for their internal generals.

Fundamentally speaking, it is because the craftsmanship level of weapons and equipment in one's own territory has not kept up, and it is impossible to produce a sufficient number of high-end weapons and equipment for sale. Therefore, if you want to draw a piece of the cake in the high-end weapons and equipment market, fundamentally speaking, you still have to improve the overall level of blacksmiths and tailors.

And although Ye's firm has been purchasing timber and ore for a long time, because the market price of these two types of resources is relatively transparent, it is impossible for Ye Teng to purchase at a price that is too high above the market price, so the amount of resources purchased can only be regarded as a drop in the bucket compared to the Yan family, because there is no special reason, who will specially make a teleportation array to sell resources in Jingcheng County?

Yan Jiayou as a core product to attract players to sell resources to them, Ye's firm has a farming cow as a core product, will inevitably attract a rolling flow of people, come to the firm to sell resources, buy weapons and equipment, after all, due to too many quantities, Ye's business bank's weapons and equipment sales price is half lower than the market, who to buy is not to buy, since you can get points, why not buy Ye's firm?

After discussing with Xiahou Xiu and Zhang Qing, Ye Teng decided to implement a membership quota system for the sale of cultivated cattle. There are three main contents:

First, don't ask for a high price. The market price was set at 100 gold per horse;

Second, the membership system. From this month onwards, customers will get corresponding points for every consumption and sale in Yip's Commercial Bank, and when the points reach a certain level, they can obtain the membership of Yip's Commercial Bank;

Third, the quota system. The number of cattle sold in the next month is announced every month, and members are eligible to buy, and the shares purchased are distributed according to the points of the previous month.

Fourth, the first batch of sales is scheduled for June 15, and the customer's membership quota is calculated based on the points they have earned by June 15.

All the plans have been decided, and on May 24, 187 A.D., Ye Teng still posted the news of the sale of ploughing cattle on the forum in the name of Bao Inquiry:

Title: Thrilling Cattle Supply! 100 gold/head!

Time and quantity: 5000 heads in June, after June, more than 1000 heads per month, long-term supply.

Location: Ye's Commercial Bank in Jingcheng County

Selling method: membership quota system;

Note: For unspecified matters, please contact Yip's Commercial Bank.

Originally, Ye Teng wanted to transfer Zhang Qing to Ye's firm as a shopkeeper for a period of time, and let Xiahou be his assistant to facilitate Xiahou Xiu's growth. Xiahou Xiu was quite happy, but it was a pity that Zhang Qing's words made Ye Teng completely dispel this idea.

"My lord, the business bank may be very busy in the future, and Tianma County should provide support in terms of manpower and technology. I'm willing to go and help out with the rest of the realm, but I want to go in the name of an old fellow, not the shopkeeper. Because I am temporarily the shopkeeper, there will be some adverse effects. Zhang Qing's tone was gentle, after all, it was the first time to refute the lord's opinion, and he was worried that Ye Teng would be unhappy.

"Oh, I want to hear about it." Ye Teng leaned forward and made a gesture of listening, he really didn't know what adverse effects this would have.

"First, Xiahou's prestige in the hearts of his colleagues in the firm will be damaged. They may wonder, why did they have to temporarily replace Xiahou's shopkeeper when they encountered a big event, was it because the lord didn't trust his ability too much? Zhang Qing glanced at Ye Teng and found that the latter's face was as usual, so he continued:

"Second, it is not conducive to Xiahou's growth. On the contrary, if Xiahou is personally at the helm this time, even if the process is a little missing, isn't there still the lord and the other robes of the territory? There's nothing big going on. And after taking the helm of this matter alone, I believe that in the future, when encountering similar scenes, Xia Hou will be able to control it easily. After all, the most complicated scenes have survived, are you afraid of similar or simpler scenes? ”

Ye Teng's face was slightly moved, "Oh, and the third?" ”

Zhang Qing gently twisted the short beard under his chin, and said: "Third, under the membership quota system, the customers who have obtained membership this time may be our long-term customers, if I receive them this time and the transaction is pleasant, then next time he will definitely look for me, and will not find Xiahou as an assistant, which will add many obstacles to Xiahou's future work." ”

"Taught. If it were not for the words of the gentleman, I would do the great wrong thing with good intentions. Ye Teng stood up and bowed to Zhang Qingshen. Xiahou Xiu also stood up and saluted, claiming to be taught.

Zhang Qing hurriedly got up and politely avoided it.

Because the ploughing cattle can improve the farming efficiency several times, but the number of people is extremely limited, and the Han government has not sold it, there are occasional transactions in the market, and merchants buy and sell them from the grassland, but because the quantity is not much, it has been in short supply.

Therefore, when it was learned that Ye's firm would have a supply of cattle, there was an endless stream of people who came to consult. Everyone understands that as the date of Dong Zhuo's entry into Beijing approaches, the beacon fire of the princes' struggle for hegemony is not far off. What is the most scarce in the war-torn age? Grain!

It can fundamentally provide a way to increase farming efficiency and food production, and no matter how big or small it is, especially the player's territory, everyone is not afraid to fight for it.

Therefore, from this day on, Yip's firm has an endless stream of customers. After consulting the rules of the game, he purchased a large number of weapons and equipment, and sold a large number of timber and ore to the Ye family firm to accumulate points.

At this stage, 99% of the forces are unable to achieve self-sufficiency in weapons and equipment, and they will be able to use them sooner or later anyway, so it doesn't hurt to stock up on some first.

The forces that came found another surprise, that is, as long as there are a certain number of points, they will immediately give you the sales quota of war horses and mules and horses, and the price is not high, 26 gold/horse for war horses, 3 gold/horse for mules and horses; The shopkeeper's explanation is that in order to repay everyone's support, some supplies were specially organized and sold to everyone at a discount.

Therefore, from this day on, the money and resources of many big forces continued to flow into the Ye family's trading house, making its business more and more prosperous, although the ploughing cattle were still not seen.
