The best old woman is too fierce, stepping on her ex-husband and beating up her traitorous son!

Chapter 139 Competitor Appears

Liu Yunde didn't like Mrs. Wen that much, and he didn't feel ashamed that he couldn't protect the woman.

He had just discovered that Mrs. Wen had no nostalgia for him, which made Liu Yunde very upset.

It was obvious that these women were all obedient and respectful to him, so why did they immediately turn against each other once they were out of his control?
There was Li Xiaoyue before, and now there is Lady Wen.

He touched his face. Is he too old to make women fall head over heels for him and obey his orders?
But after hearing what Widow Wang said, Liu Yunde's eyes lit up, "Madam, what you said makes some sense."

Widow Wang saw that Liu Yunde didn't like Mrs. Wen very much, so she sighed, "I lost my child before and hurt my body, so I can't take care of you. I have asked my grandmother to keep an eye on me. If I meet a decent-looking girl, I will keep it for you." .”

It is true that Liu Yunde has no interest in Widow Wang. If there is a young married woman, of course he is willing to do so. "It's fine that the lady makes the decision."

Widow Wang is disappointed in men, but she also knows that she needs such a man if she wants to live a pure life.

"Yunlang, having a concubine is a trivial matter. While we are helping Mr. Fan do things, shouldn't we think of ways to get spinning wheels and looms?"

"We are in Zhenxiguan, and wool is cheap. You can buy as much as you want. But the wool yarn made is worth five taels of silver per catty. It is simply a huge profit. It is not making money, it is robbing money!"

Liu Yunde looked melancholy, "Qinglan, why don't I want it? You can easily get tens of thousands of taels of silver, 10,000+ taels of silver, who wouldn't want it?"

The reason why Widow Wang was willing to come to Lihua Village with Liu Yunde was because of the spinning wheels and looms.

What Li Xiaoyue can do, she can do it too if she finds a way.

"I heard that Carpenter Sun employs many carpenters. We can pay to buy some of them."

Liu Yunde stroked his beard and said, "The hired carpenters are all making large items outside, parts that can be seen by everyone in the workshop."

"The most critical part was made by Carpenter Sun himself, and he also wrapped it in a wooden box to cover it. Those ordinary carpenters don't know that."

Widow Wang smiled and said, "Let's build the outside first. As for the inside, while we wait, we will offer a large reward to the carpenters. As long as they can get enough money to spin twenty rods, we will give 100 taels of silver."

"Maybe there will be a dead husband under the heavy reward. Three cobblers are as good as one Zhuge Liang, and it's not necessarily true that they can imitate cats and tigers and make a spinning wheel!"

Liu Yunde's eyes lit up when he heard this, "Qinglan, you are smarter. I always try to steal it in one step, but I always fail. Your method is actually safe."

Widow Wang smiled and said, "Li Xiaoyue is a human being, not a god. She can figure it out. I believe there are smart people who can also figure it out after receiving enlightenment."

Liu Yunde did what he said, and after the carpenters finished work at night, he was tempted with a lot of money.

These people were honest and made all the confidential parts except for the confidential parts that Carpenter Sun was responsible for.

All the work was done overnight, and each of the three people received 50 taels of silver.

Widow Wang sent people to Fucheng to hire carpenters, and worked with these three carpenters to perfect the spinning wheel.Although the progress is slow, gradually I can spin two threads, three threads, and up to eight threads.

Widow Wang was really surprised to achieve such results in just ten days.

Liu Yunde was also excited, "Qinglan, you are still smart. Although you can only spin eight strands now, it is much faster than before."

Widow Wang was proud, "Give those carpenters some time and they can continue to improve. I have already asked people to make a hundred smaller spinning wheels, entrusted the merchants to purchase wool for me, and also bought some paints one after another. We will also start the wool business this year. Come on, take a piece of the pie.”

Liu Yunde was convinced, "Yes, if we rent a house directly in the county town and hire some women to work, we will definitely be able to make money."

Widow Wang is indeed a good business person. After leaving Lihua Village, she sent a beautiful 15-year-old plump girl to Liu Yunde to serve him.

Waiting for the woman to get pregnant and give birth to a child, leaving the mother and leaving the child.

During this time, she rented a yard near the river.He spent a lot of money to hire carpenters to make eight-strand spinning wheels and put them into use one by one.

With the samples bought from Li's shop, Widow Wang asked others to follow the example, but she was really confused.

Although it is slightly worse than Li's wool, it is not bad.

Li Xiaoyue sells it for five taels of silver per catty, and she sells it for four taels of silver per catty at Wang's Silk and Satin Shop.

The daily quantity is not large, but more than 20 kilograms can be sold, which is hundreds of taels of silver.

Widow Wang was very excited. The cost was only [-]%, and the net profit was [-]%. It was a huge profit.

Li Changfu was quite angry when he saw that the Wang's Silk and Satin Shop across the street also sold wool.

Customers who originally wanted to buy wool at Li's shop heard that it cost four taels of silver per pound, so they all went there to take a look.

Today's sales volume is a little less.

Li Changfu looked at Wang's Silk and Satin Shop with hatred, wishing he could destroy his shop right now.

"Changfu, the guests are here, and someone wants to buy briquettes." Brother Li reminded him that if he didn't stop him, his nephew might have his own ideas.

Li Xiaoyue came to the city today specifically to pick up Mrs. Gongsun.

I happened to pass by my shop and came to take a look.

Looking at it, he saw Widow Wang selling wool, and Li Changfu stared at the Wang family silk and satin shop from time to time.

"Changfu, what are you so angry about?" Li Xiaoyue didn't know whether to laugh or cry. Fortunately, she asked her eldest brother to follow her, otherwise Li Changfu might have done something!

Li Changfu felt aggrieved, "This Widow Wang is so cunning. She bribed the carpenter who worked for Grandpa Sun to make a loom and sell the wool at a cheaper price than us."

Li Xiaoyue didn't care. "Isn't it like this when you open the door to do business? Those carpenters are hired, not bought. If they stop working, they are free."

"Nowadays, when people come up with woolen yarn, that's their job. They can't steal it or rob it. Besides, independent businesses in the world are indeed profitable, but they are also enviable."

Although Li Changfu felt that his mother was right, he still felt uncomfortable.

If it were someone else doing the wool business, Li Changfu might not be like this, but as long as he had anything to do with Liu Yunde, he couldn't help but be angry.

"Okay, don't be angry. Take a long-term view." Li Xiaoyue persuaded, "This afternoon, you go home early. I will pick up Mrs. Gongsun and I will entertain the old lady at home in the evening."

"Yes, mother." Li Changfu became less angry after his mother's persuasion, "By the way, the other party sold it for four taels of silver per catty and took away a lot of our business. Do we want to lower the price?"

Li Xiaoyue shook her head, "There is no need to lower the price. The price will still be the same as before. Even if the price needs to be lowered, it will be lowered next year."

In the first year, if the wool cannot be sold at a high price, then the supply of wool will increase and the price will be even lower.

In addition, because the supply of wool is small and demand exceeds supply, if you can't buy cheap ones, you will naturally buy expensive ones.

Even if she sells less, she may not make less money.

Widow Wang saw Li Xiaoyue, holding a round fan, and walked over with a chuckle. She wanted to see Li Xiaoyue's angry and aggrieved look, "Thank you Madam Li for your ingenuity, and let me take advantage of it."
