Chapter 960 Ready to Go to the Factory ([-])
"You don't know?"

"I really don't know this. The place where the Bai family army used to guard the border was only a big salt lake, surrounded by a large area of ​​saline-alkali land, and there was no mutual market for doing business with foreigners. This is the first time we have heard that the imperial court will collect so much tax." Lao Jiu Grandpa shrugged his shoulders and smiled.

"If calculated in this way, the price of this batch of cotton that Bai Jiajun ate is very expensive, so is there any profit?" Lu Chen was worried.

"There is money to be made. The quality of cotton is very high, and it can be made into medium and high-end gray cloth. There will always be rich people who are not short of money in this world. They have seen a lot of good things, know the goods, and see the good value for money. No matter how expensive things are, they are willing to pay for them.”

"If it's really a good thing, it's expensive for a reason."

"Let me show you the samples. In order to discuss business, the owner gave some samples. You will know what is peerless cotton at a glance."

Zhao Lin, who was serving at the side, bowed his knees slightly, opened the door and went out as if to get samples, but in fact, he went back to the Qianhe Realm to get cotton through the entrance and exit of Qi Ke's opened spirit realm. The cotton samples given by the captain of the ocean ship did not reach Qi Ke's hands.

Estimated the time it would take to walk back and forth in these three courtyards, as if stepping on a spot, he held up a tray and pushed the door in. On the tray was a bag of snow-white fluffy things that looked like white clouds.

The two village chiefs who had been staring at her since Zhaolin entered the door stared straight at her, and their gazes followed Zhaolin's footsteps, as if glued together, until the tray was placed in front of them, they didn't move their eyeballs for a while.

"Oh my god, is this cotton from overseas?!"

"Touch it, it feels pretty good."

"Oh, my hands are dirty, this snow-white ball, it's good to get dirty." Old Ninth Master rubbed his rough palms.

"My hands are rougher, so I can't tell if it's good or bad." Lu Chen moved in the same way as Old Ninth Master.

"No, it's no wonder that I heard that the embroiderer in the embroidery workshop never does rough work with her hands. Except for needles and threads, she has to take care of her hands at other times, otherwise the good material will be ruined. I saw this ball of cotton today, so I know why It's true, the cloth woven with this cotton yarn is so soft, people with rough hands will scratch the cloth." Lao Jiu said with emotion.

"Such a good cotton, the more expensive it is, the more expensive it is."

"That's right, since it's this kind of cotton, it must be profitable."

Seeing Mian, the two village chiefs somewhat believed that the business would be profitable, and then the topic turned to what to do with Qi Ke's small business when she was not in the village. At this time, Qi Ke pulled out the second housekeeper. During the time, Zhuangzi's affairs are handled by the second housekeeper, and the small business will continue as usual, which will not affect the normal life of the villagers. If someone encounters difficulties in growing vegetables in the greenhouse, he can ask the second housekeeper for advice.

At the same time, Qi Ke also told the two village chiefs bluntly that she invested the 1000 taels of silver in the account of the village official. If the factory's business goes well, the 1000 taels will soon be earned back with interest. When I earn money, I will build clinics and schools for the village.

The clinic and the school are urgently needed in the village. Hearing Qi Ke say that the money earned from the public account was used to build this, Lao Jiuye and Lu Chen both gave their thumbs up and firmly supported them. They said they would choose a site in the village first and wait for Qi Ke Come back years ago to discuss again.

Qi Ke asked them to keep it a secret first. After all, the matter has not been done yet. If the big words cannot be fulfilled, the prestige of the three village chiefs will be wiped out.

Lao Jiuye and Lu Chen naturally said that everything was fine, and they followed what Qi Ke said.

Of course, Qi Ke is not going to leave so fast, she will stay for a few more days to finish sorting out the orders from the trade fair.
