Chapter 72: Imperial Merchant Selection

Shen Liangfu remembered his father's hard work and gray sideburns in the past few days.

These are all sins suffered for the affairs of the emperor!

In the past, he was not able to help his father.

But now!

He carefully touched the fabric in his hand, and he couldn't help but feel a sense of pride in his heart.

This time, I'm going to help my father!

As a result, Shen Liangfu told Gu Beichuan and Pan about the affairs of the imperial business.

After Gu Beichuan heard this, his brows furrowed slightly, and he said, "Do you want to use my silk to compete with that flowing cloud satin in order to run for the imperial merchant?" ”

"Not bad." Only then did Shen Liangfu know that this kind of light and cold material was called silk.

"Yes, but I'm just a half-finished product, if I can't choose it, wouldn't it be a big mistake?" Gu Beichuan frowned.

He had no sales channels, so the silk was originally to be sold in the Shen Ji cloth shop, but there was no meaning not to give it.

It's just that the silk produced in the workshop now has a really hard to talk about.

Compared with the silk of later generations, it is simply a heaven and an underground.

If there is no election, wouldn't it be a major event that will ruin people's Shen Ji Buxing?

However, what he didn't expect was that Shen Liangfu, who heard this, suddenly knelt down on one knee, clasped his hands into fists, and said sincerely: "Except for silk, now Shen Ji Buxing has no other way, and I also ask my teacher to help!" ”

It's not that Shen Gui hasn't looked for other materials, he has found it!

The whole Huainan has been searched!

But... What's the use?

If Huainan really had materials comparable to Liuyun satin, how could their Shen family become the number one cloth merchant with water-like satin?

As for the surrounding counties, the textile level is not as good as Huainan.

How can they even have something that Huainan doesn't have?

Originally, their father and son had to accept the end of losing to Qian's cloth shop.

But who would have thought that there is no way out of the mountains and rivers, and the willows and flowers are bright and another village!

This time he came to Nanshanju to give him such a big surprise!

He couldn't imagine how a man who didn't know anything about the cloth merchant industry could come up with a new fabric.

But it doesn't matter!

The important thing is that with silk, they Shen Ji Cloth Store will have the capital, and they can compete with Qian's cloth store for the position of this imperial businessman!

Gu Beichuan was also a little helpless between his eyebrows, you said so, what else can I say?

"That's it, if that's the case, then take it."

"It's just that it's a semi-finished product after all, so don't get your hopes up."

Hearing this, Shen Liangfu's whole person became excited, nodded and said sincerely: "Thank you teacher." ”

"It's getting late today, and the mountain road is even more rugged, if you go back to Huainan at this moment, it will inevitably be inappropriate."

"It's better to rest in Nanshan Ju for one night, and then leave tomorrow."

Shen Liangfu also nodded when he heard this.

Although Bagong Village is not far from Huainan, it is also a few days' walk.

The matter of choosing the emperor's businessman, no matter how urgent it is, is not in a hurry for this night.

Early the next morning, Shen Liangfu bid farewell to Gu Beichuan, and then hurriedly went on the road.

However, when he returned to Huainan, he realized that something was wrong!

The selection of the imperial merchant was actually advanced! Father has already set off for Gangnam County!

What else can I do?

Keep chasing!

Even if you buy a fast horse, take the trail and set off.

If you are faster, you should be able to reach Jiangnan before your father!

……

Gangnam-gun!

The county watchman's house!

Today's county guard mansion is particularly lively.

Because a noble man is coming!

One of the nine Qings, the subordinate officer of the Dasi Nong, Taicang Order, was ordered by Emperor Renxuan to go to the two counties of Jianghuai to select outstanding cloth merchants and grain merchants to play as imperial merchants!

In fact, this matter was mentioned by the minister in the court very early.

After all, Emperor Renxuan's martial arts, his life's wish, is to attack Dayan in the north, destroy Daliang in the west, recover the territory of his ancestors, and recover the mountains and rivers of Daqian!

Da Liang is okay, due to the separation of the Canglan River, the two countries do not have close intersections.

But Dayan is completely different, even across the Yayu Mountains, there is friction with Daqian!

So between the two countries, there will be a war!

Over the years, the great cadres have been raising their glory, and they are also for this battle!

And this selection of grain merchants and cloth merchants is to prepare for war!

Its importance is self-evident.

Only the cloth merchants with the best craftsmanship and the grain merchants with the highest output can stand out.

In order to show the importance of this selection, this selection meeting was even held directly in the county warden's office.

It is to show the determination of fairness, justice and openness!

It was still early, and cloth merchants came one after another.

They looked at each other, and secretly pondered in their hearts the output and craftsmanship of each other's cloth shops.

And keep the most competitive opponents by heart.

"Hahaha!" However, at this moment, a slightly meaningful laugh came from outside the door.

A middle-aged man dressed in cloud-white brocade walked into the county guard's mansion.

When you see this person, even one of them stands up to greet him.

"Brother Qian, I haven't seen you for many years, but your demeanor is still the same."

"Where is it, Brother Wei, you are also radiant, and the sword is not old!"

"This time the imperial merchant selection, I'm just here to join in the fun."

"After all, with the rich brother's flowing cloud satin and jade in front of me, what hope can I have?"

Hearing the conversation between the two, some people couldn't help but be secretly shocked.

"Flowing clouds? Could this person be the owner of the Qian family's cloth shop? ”

"Did he really get his hands on the Flowing Cloud Satin? This was the royal family of Nanliang back then, how could it be? ”

Qian Tong listened to everyone's discussions, and his heart was very useful, and he deliberately raised his voice and said: "What is Brother Wei talking about, although Liuyun satin is good, but the two counties of Jianghuai, Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon, maybe better material will emerge." ”

"Eh, Brother Qian is really too humble."

"In my opinion, the winner of this imperial merchant selection must be Brother Qian."

"When his brother Qian's business is prosperous, don't forget to pull the younger brother."

"It's easy to say, it's easy to say."

These words reached the ears of the cloth proprietors present, and they were particularly harsh.

Everyone has been waiting for this imperial business selection for a long time.

During this period, I don't know how much money was invested and how many workers were hired to send out new fabrics.

There are even some cloth proprietors who are already in debt, just to get the quota of the emperor and make a comeback!

It can be seen that everyone attaches great importance to this selection.

However, listening to the conversation between the two, it seems that the money has long regarded the imperial merchant quota as something in the bag.

This is called them, how can they bear it?

When even one person stands up angrily, it is still polite:

"Qian Dongjia, Wei Dongjia, as far as I know."

"This flowing cloud satin is the Southern Liang royal family, the Gongpot three years ago."

"If it becomes the Gongbu of my great cadre again today, won't it seem that my great cadre is not as good as Nanliang?"

"Is it a little inappropriate for you to take his things and make a loud noise in the county guard's mansion?"

As soon as these words came out, Qian Tong's face instantly became gloomy.

Can Daqian be compared with Nanliang?

At its peak, it can be compared.

In other words, the territories of the three eastern regions combined, almost comparable to the Southern Liang.
