Chapter Forty-Six: Unusually Warm Cotton
Encountering such a person can make a resourceful person a little at a loss.
Su Jinan could only helplessly inform: "This winter came early, I am afraid that it will be cold for a long time, and this situation will easily freeze the crops in the field, and many people will freeze to death and starve to death." ”
Wen Mo understood, Su Jin'an, a person with food, would take the opportunity to make a fortune.
"You can obviously stock up your own grain, and then raise the price to make a lot of money, why?"
Why? Probably the patriotic spirit in the soul is "doing trouble"!
Su Jinan didn't say what she thought in her heart, she only smiled and said: "We are friends, I don't want to send the disaster wealth of your people, I'm afraid of being hunted down and killed by you, haha!" ”
The girl in front of him always made Wen Mo feel that he couldn't understand anything, even if it was a sleek old fritter in the court, he couldn't mix it up in two rounds and exposed his true nature.
A veil that can't be lifted is maddening and obsessive.
Therefore, even if she is lying, Wen Mo is willing to believe that the outcome of this matter is not harmful to herself, is it?
"Thank you for being a friend!" Wen Mo said with a smile.
Su Jin'an's lips curled up proudly: "Actually, it's not that you have completely given up making money, you wait a minute, I'll show you something." ”
Su Jinan turned around and ordered Su Bai to light a basin of high-temperature charcoal and bring it over.
Wen Mo was puzzled: "Charcoal? There are also some in this palace, and they are very smoky, and I don't like to use them. ”
"Hey, you're going to observe again?" Su Jinan continued to sell Guanzi.
Wen Momo's eyebrows were raised, and he really sat down next to the carbon basin and looked at it carefully, and after a while, he was surprised: "This carbon has no smoke and dust, it is not smoked at all, and it burns for a long time." ”
He actually grabbed Su Jin'an's hand excitedly: "How did you do it?" ”
"Brother, just speak, take advantage of the opportunity to break your hand." Su Jinan looked at Wen Mo and said coldly.
Wen Mo realized his behavior at this time, and hurriedly withdrew his hand, his ears slightly red.
However, Su Jinan didn't notice this, and after seeing Wen Mo let go, he continued: "I definitely won't say how to do this." But if you give me the palace's carbon and wood list, I can let you take two shares!" ”
When it comes to business, they are all human beings!
"The palace consumes 200,000 catties of charcoal every year, and the price is more than 100,000 taels. It's just that this matter is not under my control, there used to be fixed imperial merchants, and the relationship here is intricate, and it is not easy to replace it. ”
"One hundred thousand? What a strange thing your palace is! According to the price I expected, the high-temperature charcoal is 100 yuan a catty, and the maximum is 20,000 taels of silver, right? ”
Wen Mo was taken aback, and slapped his palm on the table: "Are your words serious?" If that's the case, I can go back and figure it out. ”
"It's really serious, this tree doesn't cost money, and the cost is not high, but it suddenly feels like the money in your palace is so good, is it too late to raise the price now?" Su Jinan looked at Wen Mo with blank eyes.
Su Jinan didn't know how lovely he looked, Wen Mo appreciated it comfortably, and said in a good mood: "It's impossible to raise the price, but I can only take a share of dry shares." And if Miss Jin'an sells carbon into the palace, the orders outside the palace will naturally be endless. I'm afraid the big head is here, right? ”
"This man is so smart and annoying!" Su Jinan said with some jealousy, "I do have this plan, and there is also a kind of low-temperature carbon suitable for selling to ordinary people, the quality is slightly worse, but it is much better than the charcoal you used before, in short, the opportunity to make money sent by God can never be let go." ”
"This Huifeng supermarket has fifty percent of me." Wen Mo's eyes lit up.
"I didn't say no." Su Jin'an threw a silver shack.
In this way, Su Jin'an put the low-temperature carbon at a price of 20 yuan a catty and the high-temperature carbon at a price of 100 yuan a catty in Huifeng Supermarket.
And this carbon wood emperor is the second prince's person, and he can't just change it, after all, taking people from business is like killing his parents.
After Wen Mo thought about it, he sent high-temperature charcoal to all parts of the palace, of course, the most was ten catties, and the less was only one catty. On the other hand, the price of carbon was inadvertently passed on to the ears of the four princes that night.
When the prince sent charcoal to the palaces, the second prince felt that something was wrong, and guessed that it must be related to the carbon wood purchased every year.
But Wen Mo pushed this matter forward at a high speed.
When the fourth prince found out that Huifeng Supermarket had a more useful carbon that could save 80,000 taels in the treasury, he pulled Qian Xingchang, the head of the household, up from the bed in the middle of the night.
"Fourth prince, did you find the wrong account again? Will you be okay tomorrow? My old bones are going to fall apart! ”
"It's not a matter of wrong accounting..."After the fourth prince explained the matter of carbon wood, he patted his chest and said: "Qian Shangshu, if you report this matter, your father will definitely praise you. ”
Qian Shangshu was puzzled: "Such a good thing, why don't you say it yourself, Fourth Prince?" ”
"Hehe, it's not because I'm too young to go to the morning court. Besides, I also caused a lot of trouble to the master, so I should honor the master! ”
The fourth prince shouted that Qian Shangshu was happy in his heart, and after the two discussed, they wrote a recital overnight and listened to it in the morning of the second day.
The emperor agreed in court to purchase high-temperature carbon in Huifeng Supermarket, and there was no chance for the Second Prince's Party to react.
After the second prince returned to his palace, he lost his temper, and all kinds of precious porcelain were smashed and smashed.
After a long time, after calming down, he shouted, "Someone." ”
"Master."
"Go and check the background of this Huifeng supermarket."
"Yes."
In this way, the grain and vegetables of Huifeng Supermarket are only famous in a small area, but the carbon wood is famous among the high-ranking and wealthy people across the country.
The newly purchased 500 acres of land were also being sown round after round, hoarding large quantities of potatoes, corn and cotton.
In order to stack these things, the dam in the backyard was built on top of the original three grain storage warehouses, and two warehouses were added, and a shady warehouse could be used to hang corn for drying. As a result, the dam could no longer dry things, and the land next to it was bought to make a dam.
Luo Mingshu used the new cotton to sew a padded jacket for Su Jin'an, which was so hot that Su Jin'an was sweating.
"Aunt Luo, how much cotton are you using here, it's hot to death." Su Jinan wiped her sweat with a handkerchief.
"It doesn't use much, just two or two." Aunt Luo was a little confused.
"Two-two? I felt like I had a quilt wrapped around me. ”
"Jin'an, you can't have a fever, right?" Aunt Luo was suspicious, and hurriedly touched Su Jin'an's forehead, which was even more strange, "This forehead doesn't look like a fever!" ”
Su Jinan suddenly thought of the difference in his spatial seeds. I wondered in my heart: Could it be that the warmth effect of this cotton is not the same?
As soon as he doubted in his heart, he said to Aunt Luo: "Aunt Luo, why don't you remove this jacket and take out half of the cotton, and I will wear it again to see the effect." ”
This sudden surprise made Luo Mingshu wonder if Su Jin'an was really sick.
"Jin'an, if you take out half of the cotton, the thickness of the clothes will be a little thicker than the single clothes in the autumn. Are you really okay? Would you like to ask a doctor to take a look? ”
"Aunt Luo, I'm really fine, you just do what I say."
Seeing that Su Jin'an was serious and didn't look like there was a problem, Luo Mingshu let go of the doubts in her heart and nodded.
The next day, it suddenly snowed, Su Jinan put on Luo Mingshu's changed clothes, and walked around outside to feel it.
It seems that the warmth effect of this cotton is really better, and I won't feel cold when I wear it like this, Su Jinan was pleasantly surprised.
Qin Xiulan called her from a distance, still holding a thick cotton coat in her hand: "Jin'an girl, why did you run out with so little clothing?" It's raining and snowing in this weather, and you're the one who suffers if you catch a cold. ”
As he spoke, he walked in front of Su Jin'an, and after a complaining glance, he put the clothes in his hand on Su Jin'an's body.
Su Jin's heart was warm, but she took off her cotton coat and just wanted to speak.
Qin Xiulan clapped her hand and said, "What are you taking it off?" "I want to bring the clothes over and put them on Su Jin'an.
Su Jinan had no choice but to grasp Qin Xiulan's hand with both hands.
"Aunt Qin, look, my hands are warmer than yours, your hands are so cold, it's you who should add clothes."
As soon as Su Jinan said this, Qin Xiulan felt it and said in surprise: "Hey, it's really hey, what's going on?" You're dressed like an autumn coat..."
Qin Xiulan's reaction further verified the fact that this cotton is warmer.
Su Jinan pulled Qin Xiulan and said as she walked: "This is a dress made of cotton grown by our family, I tried it, but it kept warm." ”
"Hey, everything you grow in your field is different!"
The two walked to Su's house while talking.
Su Jinan discussed with Qin Xiulan and Luo Mingshu: "I want to make all this cotton into finished bedding and clothes. It's a very large amount, and the two of you will definitely not be able to complete it, see if you can recruit some embroiderers. ”
Luo Mingshu thought for a while: "I used to know some embroidery sisters, but most of them are from our village, which is quite far away from here, and I don't know if I want to come." ”
Qin Xiulan also said: "In addition to me, there are also two sisters in the village who are slightly better at embroidery, and they can go back to their homes at night, but the technology is definitely not as good as that of Sister Luo." ”
Su Jin'an thought for a while: "If the bed in the east wing is moved out and transformed into a floor bunk, so that those embroidery girls can live inside, I don't know if those embroidery girls are willing to come..."
"It's possible to move them, because it's hard for women to find a job. It's just Su Bai, what should I do? Luo Mingshu said.
"Su Bai will live in Jinyu's room first, Jinyu is not at home anyway, and he can sleep with Su Rui in the two days when he comes back." Su Jinan planned.
In this way, the three women discussed, Su Jinan and Luo Mingshu went back to Luo Mingshu's hometown to recruit embroidery girls, while Qin Xiulan went to the two embroidery girls in the village to talk about this embroidery work.
