"Five...... Five knife coins!" The wealthy merchants present were all surprised, for to them, this price was almost equivalent to the price of cabbage compared to their expectations. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

"That's right, five knife coins. Su nodded.

"Su Gongzi, I don't understand this. Since these papers are so precious, so rare, and simply unique in the world, how can they be sold for five knife coins? Although they are small in profit and quick turnover, they are too thin, and they can be ten times more expensive. Shopkeeper Lu frowned.

"Do you know what the raw materials are for papermaking?" asked Su Qi.

"Please ask Mr. Su for advice. The wealthy merchants present were all engrossed in listening attentively, and they got some clues about papermaking from Su Qi's mouth.

"The raw materials are tree bark, grass roots, plant ash, broken hemp heads, broken fishing nets. Su Qi said.

"What? This, how can these things make paper like this?"

Everyone was shocked, they couldn't make any connection between the garbage they saw everywhere and the thin, flexible paper in front of them.

"That's right, so I said, this is a profitable business, even if it only sells for five knife coins, I still make a lot of money. Su Qi said confidently, "Moreover, the reason why I sell it so cheaply is naturally due to my own considerations." ”

"Childe, please!" Several wealthy businessmen all restrained their contemptuous expressions and bowed their hands very humbly.

"I want to make all the people in the world afford to use paper! My goal is not those rich businessmen and tycoons, but every ordinary person, even the poor and the peasants!" Su Qi said.

"Master Su, this ...... Forgive the old man for being stupid, those poor people and subordinate farmers can't even read and write, how can they come to buy paper?" asked Boss Chu.

"If I sell paper very expensively, I can naturally monopolize the market and target the rich businessmen. However, those civilians still use bamboo slips, and I just added one more choice between bamboo slips and silk silk. ”

"However, if I sell paper very cheaply, it will completely replace the position of bamboo slips and silk silk, and when the time comes, everyone, rich and poor, will have to use paper!

"Moreover, when these people get used to light and thin paper, they can no longer get used to bulky bamboo slips and soft silk silk full of folds, and paper will become an irreplaceable necessity for them!"

"As to why I conclude that the peasants and slaves will also be able to read and write in the future, there is no need to explain this to you. Su Qi said.

Only then did several wealthy businessmen reflect on it, and they couldn't help but praise each other, lamenting Su Qi's foresight.

"I don't know if this idea of mine is worth a million gold?" Su Qi looked at a few wealthy businessmen with complicated expressions and said confidently.

"It's worth it! It's worth it!" Boss Lu had already put on a flattering smile and gave Su a thumbs up, "If Su Gongzi can monopolize the paper business in the future, it will really be a million profits, but this recipe is ......."

"Rest assured, it is not easy to make paper out of rags and hemp, and if you don't believe it, you might as well go back and try it. In the future, when I use people, I will naturally be drawn from all the Su family's disciples, and the few core joints will naturally be my henchmen, and this secret recipe will definitely not be leaked. Su Qi said confidently.

Several wealthy businessmen knew that Su Qi's words were ostensibly reassuring them, but in fact they were hinting to them: "You don't have any other thoughts, even if you know the raw materials for papermaking, it is impossible to make paper, so let's obediently buy shares." ”

"What do you think? I can only sell ten shares for one share, and if you are not satisfied, I can go to someone else. There are definitely not a few trading companies in Zhaowu City that can come up with ten thousand gold. Su Qi smiled.

"Buy! Isn't it ten thousand gold, in the future, when Su's trading company becomes bigger, my income will be more than a hundred times! I will immediately ask my subordinates to give ten thousand gold!" Boss Chu was the first to make a decision.

"Su Gongzi, I am willing to pay 30,000 gold to buy your three shares, I don't know what Su Gongzi wants?"

"One person only sells one share, and more does not sell. Su Qi shook his head.

"Ahem, Master Su, why should this be serious......" Boss Lu wanted to say more, but when he saw Su Qi's face sank, he secretly said "not good" in his heart. If Su Qiyi is unhappy and doesn't sell, then he will lose a lot.

Fortunately, he reacted very quickly, and hurriedly smiled and said: "Okay, just follow Su Gongzi, ten thousand gold shares! In addition, I will give another hundred gold, and this small amount of money should be used as a small congratulatory gift for the opening of Su's trading company." ”

Su Qi's face was a little pale. Soon, the remaining wealthy businessmen contributed money one after another, and one of them bought a share. In addition, there are several wealthy businessmen who have booked shares for their friends. After that, the deposit will be sent one by one.

Tian You was also very enthusiastic, Su Qi took care of him and specially sold him two shares.

You must know that according to Su Qi's plan, the future of Su's trading company in the future is unlimited, and tens of millions of industries are also possible.

For Su's trading company, Su Qi is very confident. Papermaking originated from the memories of his previous life, and although it was only the simplest papermaking technique, it was not perfected until the Han Dynasty or even later, and in the current era, it is hundreds of years ahead.

So Su Qi didn't worry about other people making paper at all, as long as he did a good job of keeping the formula secret, the paper made by others couldn't be compared with his paper at all.

As for the sale of shares, there are two reasons. First, Su Qi's trading company was just starting out, and he was in urgent need of money, and he didn't want to borrow it, so as not to owe too many favors and make it difficult to do it in the future; second, by tying the interests of the trading company with a few wealthy businessmen in this way, he would be prosperous from then on, and many things would be much easier to do in the future.

After the meeting, everyone dispersed, all of them were full of red light, which was undoubtedly a win-win situation.

After Su Qi returned home, he received a deposit from several wealthy businessmen within a day or two, and soon collected 100,000 gold.

Su Qi handed over all this money to Su Dengxiao. Su Dengxiao saw so much gold for the first time, his eyes were spent, and his saliva was watering.

Su Qi arranged for Su Dengxiao to find more than a dozen trusted Su children from the Su family's fiefdom to help set up a trading company and prepare for the paper factory, and some important positions were all held by the Su family's children. As for the inconsequential work, it was all done by the purchased peasants and slaves.

Su Qi specially told him to treat the slaves well, and all the slaves he bought were all free, and the wages were more than ten times higher than those outside, so these slaves were all grateful to Dade and naturally did their best to work.

And Su Lang took a few martial cultivators, together with Zhao Yang's people, to protect the safety of the Su family trading company and prevent some businessmen from coming to spy on the process of papermaking.

After everything was arranged, the specific matters of establishing a trading company were handed over to Su Dengxiao. Although Su Dengxiao said that he would never be a big shopkeeper at first, when he saw this profitable business and Huang Chengcheng's gold, he immediately changed his mind, and together with Luo Ping, he devoted himself to the affairs of the trading company.

Su Qi has already seen that soon the trading company will develop at a very fast speed, and the financial problems he is worried about will also be alleviated. So next, Su Qi began to continue to close his door, ready to go to the ruins.
