Chapter 15 Suzhou drizzle
"With 300 private houses, custom embroidery drawings, plus orders from parity and bargaining areas, the total income of their trip is ...... Nine thousand taels! ”
Qin Ruo couldn't hide her shock while holding the bill.
"It's not just that, a horse of Ayara costs two taels of silver, but it can make ten sets of private houses for one hundred taels, and the net profit is a full ninety-eight taels, and the cost is almost negligible." Song Che said with a smile and winked at Shen Wenjun:
"What do you think, ma'am?"
Shen Wenjun said: "Ten taels of silver for a private house, except for those Qinglou women, how many people can afford it?" ”
Song Che said with a smile: "Then reduce the quality, the private house does not necessarily have to be ayaluo, it is also possible to use silk and coarse cloth, as long as the brand name is played, why worry about no buyers?" ”
Shen Wenjun snorted lightly: "From a prostitute. How loud can the name of a woman be? ”
"Madame's not right."
"What's wrong?"
"First, people sell themselves in the dust, and they are also forced to be helpless, the same mother is pregnant in October, why should it be divided into three, six, nine and so on? Second, most of the women in Qinglou are amorous people, rich and noble, they are powerful, and it is common for them to have three wives and four concubines in the family, and most of our customers in the future will be these people. ”
"Yes, who doesn't know, the merry boy's favorite thing is to drag the good family into the water and persuade prostitutes. Prostitutes are good. Song Gongzi saw that he was this kind of person, and he was just surrounded by a crowd of people, don't mention how happy you laugh. ”
"This is my basic hospitality, even if it is a prostitute, it is a customer, and the customer is the food and clothing parents, besides, the guys with handles in the store, which one is not smiling?"
"So you men don't have a good thing!"
"According to you, our dad is not a good thing, is he?"
"Song Che, you-"
Shen Wenjun was so angry that he stomped his feet, and ran upstairs in three or two steps.
"Uncle, the young lady is impatient, and the more agitated she becomes, the more she can't do it." Qin Ruo sighed.
Song Che shook his head: "I call it 'the countryside surrounding the city', occupying the high ground imperceptibly, and eating soft rice hard." ”
A few days to come.
The private house was listed and opened.
One after another, there were magnificent carriages and horses parked at the door of Yunshuifang, and a few maids came down, walked into the private room, quickly selected, and left quickly.
In ancient times, women often closed their doors because of the feudal idea of "abiding by the rules", especially women from large families, may not have been out a few times in their lives.
Once people are lonely, they will find fun to please themselves, and it is precisely this selling point that private rooms can be favored by noble ladies.
As the business of private houses and silk is getting better and better, the daily turnover of the market has stabilized at more than 2,000 taels, and the number of employees has expanded from the initial dozen to more than 130;
Among them, there are 24 people in the dyeing workshop, 56 people in the weaving workshop, 23 people in the embroidery room, and 27 male and female clerks, all of whom are open-minded, studious, shrewd and capable fresh blood.
The reputation of Yunshuifang has leapt to the top of Suzhou in one fell swoop, and all households in the north of the city are willing to come here to buy cloth.
Of course, there are many negative effects brought about by the rising tide, in the already depressed economic environment, many small cloth shops have been robbed of passenger flow, those who have the capital to eat the bottom, and those who have no capital have closed their doors.
Shopping malls are like battlefields, natural selection, survival of the fittest, who can not follow?
In recent days, Song Che has not gone home, and when facing Shen Wenjun, he can avoid it, try to talk less and do more.
Shen Wenjun's mouth is getting higher and higher day by day, and her stubborn temperament will never allow her to give in first.
This woman is shrewd and capable, but she is too arrogant. Of course, it is no wonder that as the only daughter in the family, she desperately wants to compete with men and make a career.
It wouldn't hurt to take this opportunity to sharpen her temperament.
……
At the end of March, the spring breeze was annoying, and the city of Suzhou was drizzling.
It stands to reason that the tender Jiangnan and the gentle rain should be more comfortable.
But......
Song Che hadn't smoked for five days, and the reaction of withdrawal was even worse than death.
The timeline he traveled through was very different from that of regular dynasties, and through a simple comparison of currency, system, and culture, the Great Liang Dynasty should be equivalent to the Great Song Dynasty more than 900 years ago.
When tobacco was first introduced to China, it was during the Wanli period of the Ming Dynasty more than 400 years ago, and if the two different ancient timelines were the same, then he would have to wait at least 500 years before he could smoke a cigarette......
In five hundred years, Lao Tzu has already become a pile of white bones!
"Phew!" Song Che spat out the tasteless dried mint leaves in his mouth, took a deep breath of moist air, and pretended to swallow clouds and spit out fog.
"Uncle! Something happened! Go down and take a look! Suddenly there was a shout outside the door.
Song Che hurriedly went downstairs.
There were three shopkeepers sitting in the hall, their noses were bruised and their faces were swollen, their heads were bleeding, and Qin Ruo and the maid were helping them bandage them.
The three of them are all field guys who are responsible for purchasing raw cloth externally, and the round-faced one is the captain of the army, whose name is Wang Xian.
Song Che frowned: "What happened?" ”
Wang Xian saw Song Che going downstairs, and his injuries were gone, so he limped forward to complain: "Uncle, let's go to Wang's Silk Workshop in Dongshi to purchase raw cloth according to your instructions, but I met people from Chen's Firm, they said that they also came to purchase the original cloth, but you also know that the original cloth of Wang's Silk Workshop is collected by us, and we paid a deposit a few days ago. ”
"Uncle, you have to be the master for us!"
"How can this be reasonable, miss, uncle, I will gather the brothers of the dyeing workshop and find them to settle accounts!" Li Tian said angrily.
"Hey, they're hooligans, we're not," Song Che raised his hand to stop it, and rushed to Wang Xian and the others: "Don't worry, uncle, I am a person who retaliates with a tooth for a tooth, how they hurt you, I will definitely ask them to pay back ten times, the most important thing at the moment is to recover the injury, and the wages during the period, as well as the cost of soup and medicine, can be reimbursed." ”
A few guys helped Wang Xian and the others out of the shop.
Qin Ruo was indignant: "Chen's firm has its own silk mill and has never disdained external procurement, and what they are doing today is obviously aimed at us." ”
Song Che said: "If nothing else, it will be difficult for us to buy the original cloth in Suzhou Silk Mill from now on." ”
Qin Ruo said: "At present, all of us are newcomers, and it is very difficult to produce 100 horses a day, far less than the number of horses sold every day. ”
"How about going outside the city to recruit a group of weaver girls?" Shen Wenjun proposed.
Qin Ruo said: "But Miss, we can't accommodate more weaver girls in the shop, if we recruit new people, the only way to open another workshop, site selection, decoration, loom, and training, these can not be completed in three or five days." ”
Song Che said: "The Chen family can monopolize the original cloth today, and tomorrow it will monopolize the silk thread, and it is useless to recruit many people." ”
"It's better to raise prices, and the one with the highest price will get it?" Shen Wenjun proposed again.
"If you bid, you will really fall into their trap," Song Che said: "After a series of activities subsidized by group buying and full reduction, the profit is already lower than the market price, and then the price of plateau cloth will definitely be beyond the means, and you must know that Chen's is mainly a businessman, and a shipload is tens of thousands of horses, and there are channels to sell at a high price, and those who do retail will never be able to do wholesale." ”
"So what are we going to do? If you are bullied, do you endure it? Shen Wenjun gritted his teeth.
Song Che smiled: "Madame, you don't need to be in a hurry, you have to think slowly." "Then I'm going upstairs.
"Song Che!"
"What for?"
"Go home and live!"
"I think it's nice to live in the study."
"Back! Family! Live! ”
"Ah, you little pump girl, according to you, according to you......"
