Things went far more smoothly than Zhang Fugui expected, and after he settled outside the Jianmen Pass, he made an agreement with the merchants who came and went, because it was profitable, these people naturally sold their goods to Zhang Fugui.

When the goods were delivered to Zhang Fugui, he began to grade the goods, separating the high-grade, inferior-grade and inferior products into different warehouses.

The two guys who came with Zhang Fugui are good businessmen, and they use Fan Li's "Business Economics" - trade with things, and don't leave the food, and don't dare to tell Zhang Fugui that they need to transport the best products to Yangzhou to avoid the cost loss caused by the accumulation of goods.

Zhang Fugui said with a smile: "No, now send the inferior and inferior products over, and then finally send the upper grades." ”

The two of them were puzzled and asked, "Why is this? In this way, the goods are piled up, and those expensive ones will not be damaged by the accumulation of moisture? ”

Zhang Fugui said with a smile: "No, that was before, and now the account is not calculated like this, first send inferior and inferior products over, because we cut off the supply here, so that other places can only buy from us because of shortages, so that inferior and inferior products can also be sold at a good price." ”

The two of them couldn't help but ask, "You mean to say that these are not shipped to our own store for sale, but sold to other families nearby, right?"

"Yes, these goods will be sold at our purchase price plus shipping to those stores in need, not to our own stores. ”

"But then we won't be able to make money, and won't we help others make wedding dresses in vain, and we will add strain and labor costs in vain? And as we continue to buy and sell, if we don't make a profit, won't we lose money in vain?"

Zhang Fugui smiled: "You just listen to me, I have my own opinions." ”

Although the two didn't understand Zhang Fugui's approach, they even thought that he was a fledgling kid who didn't know anything, and secretly said that his father's industry would be lost by him sooner or later.

But after all, the two of them are just buddies after all, they have been with the Zhang family for so many years, what Zhang Fugui is called, they still won't refute, they used the only remaining silver to hire someone to transport things to Yangzhou, in order to avoid any problems on the road, the two can only escort it in person.

But after coming and going, the little silver given to him by Zhang Fugui's father would quickly drain up like flowing water, and the goods transported to the Jiangnan area could not be cashed in time because of the long distance.

During that time, he couldn't help but worry, he continued to ask for it, but the silver had already been spent, and he also knew that the few hundred taels of silver was already the most money his father could take.

But the goods sent from Shuzhong were transported to his warehouse and asked him for money, but there was no way, so he had to make an IOU first.

He had no choice but to think that Li Moru gave him the sword at the beginning, and he remembered that Yang Juan had said that the sword cast by Lao Yang Tou was very valuable, so he made the idea of selling the sword.

He still clearly remembers the first time he took the sword to the pawnshop to sell it, and the shopkeeper in the pawnshop said that he would break the sword for twenty taels of silver.

Zhang Fugui felt that Yang Juan would not deceive himself, and Li Moru was by no means the kind of lazy person, and the sword that Li Moru specially forged for himself was definitely not a broken sword in the shopkeeper's mouth.

He walked out angrily with a sword, and found a lot of pawnshops in a row, all in the same tone, at this time, Zhang Fugui thought that the old Yang Tou had said before, swords and people, they need to meet people who know the goods, he handed over the business in the store to his trusted buddy, and he went to Chengdu Mansion.

The emperor lived up to his painstaking efforts, he met a person in a place called Heming Mountain, he saw Zhang Fugui holding a sword looking for a buyer, and asked Zhang Fugui to take a look at it when he was curious.

Zhang Fugui didn't think much about it and showed him the sword, the moment the man pulled out the sword, he only heard a crisp sword sound, and he couldn't help but praise the good sword, he took a hair and put it on it, and with a gentle blow, the hair was instantly broken into two.

The man couldn't help but be surprised, "Sure enough, it's a sword that breaks when you blow your hair." ”

Zhang Fugui himself didn't understand very well, so he said: "This is my family's ancestral sword, if it weren't for the fact that I was desperate, I would never have sold it." ”

The man said, "It's a pity. ”

"What a pity?"

"It's a pity that the sword didn't meet its owner. ”

Zhang Fugui said: "Can't you see that it's a sword? If you want, you can make a price, and I will give it to you." ”

The man replied, "Although I know the sword, I cannot use it without it, and I am afraid that it will fall into my hands." ”

Zhang Fugui had no choice but to gamble, he told the man the origin and meaning of the sword, and said that he was really in need of money, so he thought of selling the sword.

After hearing this, the man pondered for a long time and said, "In this way, this sword, one thousand taels will be pressed on me first, and when you earn money, one thousand and one hundred taels will come to me for redemption." ”

"Ten interest, aren't you a little dark?"

The man said: "To be honest, if you go elsewhere to borrow money, and you have nothing for a short time, with this sword, no one else will lend you money, let alone ten profits, that is, twenty or thirty, you can't borrow it, and if you think it's not worth it, you can sell this sword to me for a thousand taels of silver, and if you want to buy it at that time, the one hundred taels of silver will be the right to compensate you for disappointing your friend." ”

Zhang Fugui was helpless, he was really in a hurry to use money at the moment, and a thousand taels of silver was indeed a lot of income for him, he gritted his teeth and said, "Okay, make a note, and when the time comes, I will definitely come to redeem the sword." ”

In this way, Zhang Fugui sold the sword to the man, who said that he was on Heming Mountain, and if he wanted to redeem it, he could send someone to him at any time with money and notes.

After getting the money, Zhang Fugui hurriedly brought the silver back, but when he went back, something else happened, because of the weather, the piled up of high-quality products was damaged by more than 10%.

At this time, the two men who had delivered the goods also returned, bringing back the silver that had been sold for the goods.

After paying off his IOU, he began to think about what to do with the fine goods that were piling up in the warehouse.

He said to the two, "Please make another trip and deliver these fine products to my father's shop, and tell him not to raise the price, but to sell them at the price of the local market, and then take the goods with him because of the dampness and mold." ”

The two of them were puzzled and asked, "Young Master, wouldn't it be a loss to send the high-quality goods to your own shop H and sell them at the current market price?" Also, why do you have to spend so much effort to send those damp and moldy goods to where to go, isn't this a waste of manpower and financial resources?"

Zhang Fugui sent a letter to the two of them and said, "When the time comes, he will understand if you give this letter to my father." ”

Although the two of them complained, after all, they were both old men who had followed Zhang Fugui's father for many years, and although they were dissatisfied, they had to do what Zhang Fugui said.

Li Moru asked: "Fugui, I don't understand, why do you have to transport those bad goods to your father so far? Could it be that you still want to sell those things?"

Zhang Fugui said: "No, what I wrote to my father was to burn those goods that were damp and moldy on the street. ”

Zhang Qingshan couldn't help but praise: "Awesome, rich, this trick is very good." ”

Li Moru was confused when he heard this, and asked, "What is Fugui doing this for?"

Zhang Qingshan said: "Fugui This is to tell those who buy things that our bad things will never be sold to them, so that they can buy their own things with confidence, because Fugui sends them to their own homes are high-quality products, so that the people who buy them will naturally know that one is good, and if this continues, the store of the rich family will become bigger and bigger." ”

Li Moru nodded and said, "Understood, amazing, rich." ”

Zhang Fugui said: "Alas, this is also no way, that single business, I lost almost two hundred taels of silver, but fortunately, since then, everything began to work normally, and the money kept up in time. ”

Zhang Qingshan said: "No, if you do this, your business will get bigger and bigger, but it is not enough to support the current scale of your Zhang Mansion." ”

Zhang Fugui said with a smile: "The currency wants to go like flowing water, the way of big business." After I make money, I will naturally use the money for other livelihoods, and I can't let the money rot here, that would be too stupid. ”

Li Moru hurriedly asked, "Tell the second brother, what else have you used to do with the money?"

"First of all, I took out some money to buy an industry, bought land in Yangzhou and Suzhou to build some inns, these places have many merchants, so the demand for inns is naturally more, so if you buy an inn, you will basically not lose. ”

"Then, I sent people to Chengdu Mansion to talk to those who weave Shu brocade, and let those skilled weavers sell me all the Shu brocade they weave, and if they weave high quality and quantity, I will also have rewards. ”

Zhang Qingshan said: "You want to monopolize the business of Shu Jin, right?"

"Well, I found that if you want to become bigger, you have to do this, I am afraid that in the future, some people will look at the business I am doing and blush, and follow my example, and buy the goods from Shu outside the Jianmen Pass, if they lower the price, it will cause me a huge loss. ”

After hearing this, Zhang Qingshan couldn't help but praise: "It is indeed a good job to anticipate the enemy's opportunity and occupy a favorable position." ”

Zhang Fugui smirked: "How about it, I'll just say, I will definitely become the richest man in the world, Moru, why don't you quit the rivers and lakes now, and follow the third brother to play the world?"

Li Moru said with a smile: "Forget it, Brother Zhong Kui told me a word, once you step into the rivers and lakes, you will never be able to get out again, and the rivers and lakes are so big, how can you and I avoid them, one day, I will reach the realm of Huiyang Immortal Master, and when the time comes, the second brother will protect you." ”

Li Moru's face was a little embarrassed, "And I just haven't seen you for a long time, come to see you, stay for a few days, and I'm leaving." ”

"You're leaving?"

"Well, there are too many people staring at me right now, and if I stay here too often, I'll get you in trouble. ”

Zhang Qingshan nodded, "Well, but, second brother, be careful in everything in the future, when you use the disguise technique, remember to cover up your previous behavior and habits, so as not to be recognized." ”

"Hmm. ”

Zhang Fugui said: "From the south to the north, it is rare for our brothers to get together today, come and have a drink." Since he started doing business, Zhang Fugui has been busy in the past few years, and he has never felt so relaxed now.

The three of them took a sip of the wine glass and exclaimed with joy.
