Chapter 87 We Want It All (Part [-])

Lu Daxiong was not idle when he was taking a bath, even busier than when he was working as a errand.

In a few days, he and Lu Sanbao bought all the defective cloth from the two adjacent counties.

I have to say that this time Chen Xingyan was really generous.

Boss He had left with his things for less than half a month before sending someone back.

"Greetings to Mrs. Chen, the younger one is a steward under Master He's command. I come here to pick up some goods from you on Master's order."

After speaking, he respectfully submitted a letter.

After Chen Xingyan read it, he only raised his eyebrows slightly, and said in a lazy tone: "It seems that your master's business is good."

"You're welcome. Mrs. Chen, my master told me before we left, but we will take all your smocks, no matter how many. And they will be loaded to Fucheng soon."

Chen Xingyan took a sip of tea unhurriedly: "I'm not busy with this one. I have quite a lot of stock now. Let me tell you first, how is this gown sold in Fucheng?"

"Of course it's wonderful."

The steward is also a smart person, so there is no need to hide this kind of thing.

Besides, if the land sales were not good, it wouldn't be possible to buy the second batch of goods so soon.

"Okay, I have one thousand and one hundred pieces here, are you sure you want to take them all away?"

"Sure, sure! By the way, this is the silver that our master gave you. The previous deposit will not change, but it is still 100 taels. If you have something later, you have to keep it for us."

Chen Xingyan nodded, this Boss He is indeed good at doing business.

The Wang family has been on fire for the past two days, and there are also things similar to their smocks in the county. It’s just that they sell land cheaply, and they only sell one for 25 yuan, and you can get five pieces for [-] yuan, which is much cheaper than theirs. up.

Also because of this price advantage, a lot of business was robbed by several families.

This is how their inventory is saved.

Mrs. Wang lowered the price intentionally, but after looking at the other party's items, she felt that her own items were obviously better and more refined.

Chen Xingyan was not in a hurry, and after two days of stopping, he found Liu Dazhuang.

The patrol office in the town can work temporarily, and the rest of the work will have to wait until the beginning of spring.

Liu Dazhuang was also idle when he was idle, so Chen Xingyan asked him to be in charge of selling these gowns.

"I'll give you a price of 23 renminbi a piece, and you can earn as much as you sell. Boss He Da in Fucheng wants 23 pieces of goods at a time, and he is also a regular customer of our medicine, so he can give him this price. , [-] Wen is the lowest price I can give you."

Liu Dazhuang felt that this sister-in-law was really open-minded.

If she didn't tell her, she might not know about it, besides, this business belongs to the Lu family, so she didn't need to explain to herself at all.

After all, they didn't treat him as an outsider.

"Success, then thank you sister-in-law."

"You are not too busy thanking you. Now there are some things similar to ours in this county. The land is cheap, but the price of our overalls does not change. How many pieces you have taken these days are just recorded in the account and wait for them to be sold. Give it to me after the money."

Liu Dazhuang felt that this was inappropriate, how could he sell other people's goods first?

"Sister-in-law, this is not appropriate. I can take at most one hundred pieces, and I still have the money."

"Listen to me." Chen Xingyan raised his hand to stop him and said, "Sell it first, and if it's not easy to sell, then just bring everything back. Our smocks are made of thicker fabric, so wearing them in winter will not only prevent the winter clothes from getting dirty." , it can also keep warm. Especially when the wind blows, the effect of this overall will be more obvious."

"Okay, I understand what sister-in-law means, then I'll come over tomorrow and get a hundred pieces."

"Well, you don't have to go to the same town every day, you can go to the nearby town or the village market to try."

Liu Dazhuang thanked him, and then went back to discuss with his family.

Of course, several famous big markets in Gaoyang County cannot be held on the same day.

Moreover, the loading and unloading of goods at the market in Qingshui Town is still very fast.

Da Zhuang Niang felt that this business could be done, so she took the initiative to go to the town with him to sell smocks and try it out.

Because of Liu Dazhuang, both Qi and Changpu stopped selling things outside.

Liu Dazhuang sold it for two days, and the proceeds were returned, but the warehouse of the Lu family was emptied all at once.

Mrs. Wang has been in a hurry for several days, but looking at the empty room now, she feels a little uncomfortable for a while.

Lu Laohan said to her: "I just told you not to worry about it! Look, they took away a thousand pieces last time, and this time they just wrapped everything up. Are you still worried?" What?"

Wang said awkwardly: "I'm not afraid that things won't be sold, and they will fall into my own hands. It's fine if I sell it, and I won't worry about it in the future."

Lu Laohan said: "My daughter-in-law looks like a fool, so you don't have to worry about it. Think about it, since she came to our house, is this life getting better? Just stay at home and let you Do whatever you want."

Lu Laohan is relatively relaxed, because there is basically no work in the field in winter.

Lu Xiaoliu also came to look for Chen Xingyan when he heard the news that Liu Dazhuang was going to sell the overalls.

"You also want to sell gowns?"

Lu Xiaoliu nodded and said, "It's winter, there's no work in the fields, I think I can do more, and save more food for the family."

You can't die without charcoal, but if you don't have food, people will starve to death!
Chen Xingyan nodded and offered him the same price as Liu Dazhuang.

"You'd better discuss it with Da Zhuang. You should stagger the time and place of going to the market. Just don't get together."

"Understood, sister-in-law."

Lu Xiaoliu didn't have much money, and worried that he wouldn't be able to sell them, so he only took fifty pieces.

In less than two hours on the first day, all the gowns were sold out, and the next day they asked for a hundred pieces.

On the other side, after discussing with Chen Xingyan, Fang's side divided the work among a dozen women from her natal side, and the number of smocks that could be collected on this day was even more.

Once the wages are settled in five days, it is time to start again.

Fang followed her youngest son, mainly helping her hold the money box.

The women who came to pay their wages all had relaxed smiles on their faces, and they were still inquiring about each other.

"What do you want to buy with your wages?"

"I have discussed with my family to buy some cotton. This year, the family has no crops, so I will buy some to make two thick quilts."

"My family does have cotton, but we don't have enough land, so my man will go to the town to buy some coarse grains later."

"My man went up the mountain to cut firewood, and I was thinking about making him a winter coat. By the way, I also put on a gray smock for him. Not to mention, this job is good, and the clothes are not dirty. It also saves us women from washing their clothes and freezing fingers in the cold weather!"
