People in Datang have been expelled from school

Chapter 214 Preparing for Winter
"I didn't praise you." Li Tai couldn't laugh or cry.

The three of them walked out of the warm shed, and fell asleep next to the stables after being drunk.

On the second day, carloads of wool were delivered to Jingyang.

After being woken up by Duhu, Li Zheng finally woke up. Li Tai and Cheng Chumo had already left.

The oxcarts were filled with wool, and he said with a silent smile, "Xianhou, the hundred thousand catties you want are all here."

Li Zheng asked Li Yifu to start unloading, calling hundreds of villagers to unload the wool.

After confirming that the servings and quantities were correct, Li Zheng and the Turkic businessman came to the stables silently.

"I don't know if these Wool County Hou are still satisfied?"

Li Zheng poured him a bowl of boiling water and said, "Thank you for your hard work, this business is yours from now on."

Li Zheng took out the contract and said to him: "This is a contract of [-] guan. From now on, you will be my wool supplier. There is a total of [-] guan of wool. Now I will ask Li Yifu to pay you the money for these goods." , from now on, you can settle with Li Yifu for all the wool you bring.”

Mou hurriedly saluted, "It is my honor to do business with the county lord."

Li Zheng continued: "I will have business every year in the future, and I hope that the business between you and me can be unimpeded."

Mou understood Li Zheng's meaning, and quickly said: "Don't worry, the county magistrate, the villains on the road are very familiar, and I even sent military information to General Li Jing back then."

This is a year-round business, and it is best to have someone who can walk between Guanzhong and Turkic.

The two signed the contract, and then said silently: "The county lord, there is something that the villain still feels that he needs to explain to the county lord."

"You said."

Mou nodded and said, "In the beginning, besides the county marquis, there were also people who bought wool."

"Who?"

Mou took out a bill and said, "This is the wool bought by two other families. General Cheng bought three thousand catties for one, and I don't know how the other party bought one thousand catties for the other."

"I dare not lie to the county lord. I am sincere in my business with the county lord."

Li Zheng crossed his legs and said, "Then what if someone steals goods from me in the future?"

Mou quickly said: "The villain will definitely do the business of the county lord first, and then do other people's business, the county lord can rest assured."

Li Zheng nodded with a smile and said, "Go to the entrance of the village to pay the bill. I hope there will be more wool next time."

"Don't worry, the county magistrate." Mo Vo hurriedly saluted.

After he left, Xu Jingzong whispered to Li Zheng, "Can this person be trusted?"

"Of course I can't believe it." Li Zheng looked at the contract in his hand and said, "A speculator like this has greater benefits. He will definitely turn his head and run after others."

"In that case, do you still want to do business with him?"

Li Zheng said with a smile: "You find a trustworthy person, follow him, and let me know his business way."

Xu Jingzong who understood immediately said: "I understand the meaning of the county lord. Ming Xiu plank road secretly crosses Chencang. The county lord wants his business way. We can do it ourselves in the future."

Making a silent movement, Li Zheng whispered: "There are not many businessmen between Turkic and Guanzhong. A stable transportation line is very important. If you spend regular money to buy a bag of rice, you can eat it for a month, but if you buy You can eat every day with a knife."

Xu Jingzong nodded, "I will arrange people here next time, and I will do business with Mou on the next trip."

"Thanks for your hard work."

"It's what I should do."

Teaching a man to fish is worse than teaching him how to fish. Xu Jingzong left Jingyang and returned to Chang'an. He arranged for a few clever rangers to follow Mou's business and find out his way of doing business.

A group of aunts in the village were at a loss looking at the carts of wool, and they didn't know what the wool was used for.

In later generations, wool is a very important textile material because it has good elasticity, strong moisture absorption and more importantly, good warmth retention.

The wool on the Turkic grassland is also called Mongolian wool in later generations. It is said that it is Mongolian wool. This kind of wool is very soft.

It is a good material for making clothes, and the wool on the grassland can be said to be a golden mountain.

As if he had seen a lot of silver cakes flying towards him, Li Zheng said to Xu Jingzong: "Let me just say, the sky has changed and I want to get rich."

Wool cotton quilts can be made, and you will never be afraid of freezing this winter.

Daniu and Di Renjie had been taught the process before, and the aunts in the village knew how to do it quickly after watching the two children make a few woolen bags with needles and threads.

The clothes of many children in the village are made by the aunts themselves. This kind of work is easy to see.

Soak the wool with water and put it in the sun to dry.

You can also put some spices when sewing, and it will be fragrant when you wear it.

A piece of cotton-padded clothes is almost finished.

Di Renjie felt it for a while and said, "Teacher, it's really warm."

For such a piece of clothing, the wool inside is about a catty, and it is very light and light to wear.

Such a piece of clothing should sell for fifty cents, Li Zheng was thinking about the price.

Xu Jingzong said: "I think one hundred coins is more than enough."

"Let's make it cheaper. The cost is not much. One hundred yuan is too much for people who can't afford it. This is not perfume. Poor people don't need perfume, but poor people still have to wear clothes."

Li Yifu said: "The county marquis has a kind heart."

Fifty coins a piece, many ordinary people in Chang'an should be able to afford such clothes, and they can afford such clothes after ten days of work.

Today Datang's GDP is still too low.

Li Yifu did a careful calculation in his mind, and for ten yuan a catty of wool, including the capital and cloth money, he could earn about twenty yuan for a piece of clothing, which was nearly doubled every time he went back and forth.

If Li Zheng raised the price, maybe he could earn more.

Li Zheng told Xu Jingzong: "Go to Cheng Yaojin's house and buy Cheng Yaojin's wool."

"Is it also ten cents a catty?"

"Cheng Yaojin has three thousand catties of wool in total. You can ask him if he sells it for fifteen cents per catty."

Cheng Yaojin in Chang'an still had some doubts when he heard Xu Jingzong's words, "Fifteen coins a catty?"

Xu Jingzong nodded, "The County Marquis indeed ordered so."

Cheng Yaojin drank the wine and said, "Go back and tell Li Zheng that I won't sell it."

Xu Jingzong said again: "At present, only the county marquis in Chang'an is harvesting wool. I don't know what use the wool is for General Cheng."

"The old man has his own uses." Staring at Xu Jingzong's expression, Cheng Yaojin asked: "At the beginning, you were also one of the eighteen bachelors in the Qin Palace, why did you go to follow Li Zheng, is life not good in court? "

"If General Cheng wants to sell it, come and find me."

After Xu Jingzong finished speaking, he turned around and left without answering Cheng Yaojin's words. Everyone has his own ambitions, so there is no need to say more.

Now after leaving the court, Xu Jingzong felt a lot more relaxed, and gradually fell in love with Li Zheng's life like a wild crane.
