Poor family mother and son

Chapter 186: Talking to You (Part [-])
Xiri Ahong held the teacup but couldn't put it to his lips.

Such a fragrant tea, something he would not bear to drink on weekdays, but now he can drink it for free but has no intention of drinking it.

King Guli wanted him to come and tell the price to ten yuan per catty, but now people say they bought cotton fields, cotton fields!

"We are short on time and have heavy tasks. Look, when will we trade cotton?" Chu Yuan pointed to the box in the tent, where there was silver, for cash transactions.

Xiri Ahong was sweating a little: "Uh...this year's cotton...this...you know, cotton is a good thing, and our cotton in Voss is a specialty product, so this year's price..."

"No need to lower the price! Our master said that since King Guli promised not to increase the price for ten years last year, she will not lower the price just because she has cotton in her house. It's still Qiwen, don't worry!" Chu Yuan said proudly. Say.

Xiri Ahong's sweat flowed to his temples, making the curved scroll look shiny.

How can I answer this now?
Could it be that they need a lot of cotton, even if they produce it themselves, it is still not enough, so it is still feasible to raise the price?

With a glimmer of hope, Xiri Ahong raised his head to talk, but Lao Yu handed him a towel: "Fat people are afraid of the heat? Wipe off your sweat!"

You are fat!I am fat!

Xiri Ahong still took the towel gratefully, and was about to wipe his face when he realized that the thing in his hand was actually a cotton towel, or a soft and thick cotton towel!
"This is..." Xiri Ahong looked at Lao Yu: "Is this a cotton veil?"

"You can call it that, our master calls it a towel, it's not made of wool, it's made of cotton, it's just fluffy and fluffy." Old Yu said.

"Hey! It's not that there is too much cotton and I don't know what to do. Our master just made up such a batch of towels and gave them to us to wipe our sweat!" Chu Yuan looked nonchalantly, "This thing is really good! Our master made it casually , it is easy to use, absorb sweat!"

In fact, Chu Qing doesn't know how to make modern towels. Chu Yuan and the others spun cotton threads into thick threads and then wove them with the method of knitting sweaters, in order to be soft and absorb water.

Everyone has long hair, and every time they wash their hair, they need three or four large handkerchiefs to absorb water, which is not strenuous enough.

Xiri Ahong held back when he wanted to increase the price.People have so much cotton that they don't know what to do with it?

"Isn't your cotton just over 400 million catties? Is it enough?" Xiri Ahong looked puzzled. Jiangnan Meng's family raised the price to ten yuan to buy this thing. Why don't they know that there is so much of it? What is it for?
"Oh, it's not enough. It's cold. We all wear sweaters and trousers. Those things are warm inside and don't hinder activities. It's much more convenient than wearing cotton robes, so we don't need too much cotton. It's gone." Old Yu explained.

"Wearing a silk robe on the outside, sweater wool trousers on the inside, it doesn't look bulky, and it's still warm to wear. Who would wear a thick robe!" Chu Yuan looked nonchalant.

People don't use cotton anymore.Then how can the price increase!

no!What the prince told me must be done!Terrible!
"Hehe, everyone, Daxuan's population is not a small number. According to the villain, there are more than one place or one city that needs cotton." Xiri Ahong calmed down with the organization language, and it was true that he was suppressed by them just now. For a moment, but this matter is not just bragging to be taken seriously.

"When doing business, you have to take a long-term view, don't you? The so-called 'big business depends on the trend, medium business depends on the situation, and small business depends on the situation'. Cotton should be considered a big business for Daxuan, right?" Xiri Ahong said .

This time Chu Yuan was stunned.

This little old man is so knowledgeable!Is he not a servant?

This chatter, one set of one set, and what others say is right, but I have no way to refute it.

Old Yu also lowered his eyelids, thinking about how to deal with it while drinking tea.

"Then tell me," Chu Yuan couldn't hold his breath, and opened his mouth first: "What do you want?"

This time it was Xiri Ahong's turn to drink tea slowly.

Slowly swallowing the mellow and sweet tea, Xiri Ahong said: "Oh, this year you announced that several groups of caravans have come to our prince to buy cotton. The price of each one is higher than that of the other, and some even sell Up to 22 Wen per catty."

Xiri Ahong paused, and looked at the expressions of Lao Yu and Chu Yuan.

Chu Yuan almost jumped up!Who is it to take off!

Lao Yu put the teacup on the table and made a soft sound before Chu Yuan stabilized his body.

"You're still young!" Xiri Ahong saw Chu Yuan's performance, and his mentality became more stable: "Our prince is not that short-sighted, and he kept his promise and did not agree. But..."

"Just tell me! What's the price?" Chu Yuan was impatient to hear that he was putting gold on his face, paying 22 Wen per catty!
"Hehe, since our lord has confirmed a long-term cooperation with your master, we will naturally leave the cotton to you.

However, although Jiangnan Meng's bid is not high, they want to take all our cotton, which is more than 680 million catties of cotton!Eleven cents per catty! " Xiri Ahong said.

He raised one penny per catty, if it can be settled... the decimals are afraid of long calculations!

"You guys!" Chu Yuan was really about to jump, the letter sent by Zhandui was ten cents per catty, and the little old man in front of him would pay him one cent on the spot!
"Oh, don't worry, there's nothing we can do about it. Our lord also has to think about the people in the territory. With an extra penny, the people can have an extra bite of food, right?" Xiri Ahong took another sip of tea, the taste really not bad!
"So, if you want to wrap up our cotton, it should be no less than eleven coins! After all, we don't want to offend your Daxuan businessmen, and Jiangnan Meng's family is a famous family of Daxuan!" Xi Ri After Ahong finished speaking, he looked complacently at Lao Yu, who was bowing his head in thought, and Chu Yuan, who was irritable and puffed up his eyes.

Chu Yuan suddenly calmed down.

Also smiled lightly.

Lao Yu raised his head to look at him, smiled as well, and nodded to Chu Yuan, which kind of meant "you can play whatever you want".

Chu Yuan also took a sip of tea slowly, and said to Xiri Ahong: "You are right! When doing business, you should take a long-term view.

But, for our master, cotton is not a big business. Our family has a lot of business, which is not bad.

Well, we also understand that you don't want to offend the Meng family, so you can cooperate with them.ah? "

"Ah?" Xiri Ahong didn't expect the other party to do such a trick, and hurriedly asked: "What do you mean?"

"Oh, it's just that we don't buy it." Chu Yuan said.

Xiri Ahong looked at Lao Yu again, as if seeking confirmation.

In his opinion, older people should be in charge.

Lao Yu smiled and nodded: "He's right." Then he reached out and gestured to Chu Yuan, expressing that he was a soy sauce maker, and he had the final say.

Before coming, Chu Qing explained to Lao Yu: This time, I want to train Chu Yuan, let Chu Yuan be the master, and Lao Yu can just beat the side drums to suppress the formation.

Seeing that Lao Yu didn't object to him, Chu Yuan became more confident: "Don't make things difficult for us, we happen to be busy there too, so we won't stay any longer. If the business doesn't work out, our friendship is there. Welcome your lords to visit Daxuan in the future.

By the way, now that you know how to increase your cotton income, we brought back all the fifty people who were stationed here to help. There is too much business at home, and there is not enough manpower, alas! "
