wealthy lord

Chapter 88 Win-win cooperation
  Lin Yun couldn't help frowning and murmured: "Imperial envoy? Why are you coming to Yucheng?"

"I heard from Manager Ma that he came here to inspect the situation of the people! And this time I just stopped by Yucheng. I heard that there was a famine in Haocheng and many people starved to death!"

Oona had a sneer on her face. She was not originally from the Daduan Dynasty. No matter how many people died, it had nothing to do with her. Instead, she took it as a joke.

"Haocheng? Famine? How is this possible? Haocheng is a well-known large grain producer in Fengyang County. If people in Haocheng can starve to death, won't everyone in Fengyang County starve to death?"

As a former member of the Lin family, although he was only the humblest bastard, he still carried the reputation of being a heir of the Lin family, so he was very aware of some things in Fengyang County.

"I don't know about that! When Ma Ji comes, you can ask him personally!"

Oona was too lazy to ask more about these things. She stood up and wanted to go back to rest. Suddenly something occurred to her and she said: "That's right! Sir, this is for you!!"

As he spoke, he took out a cloth bag from his arms.

Lin Yun asked curiously: "What is this?"

"I passed by the blacksmith shop in Yucheng. The old blacksmith gave it to you. He said it was ordered by my husband before!"

Lin Yun's eyes lit up. He had been so busy recently that he had even forgotten about this matter.

He quickly took the cloth bag, his eyes shining brightly.

Oona asked curiously: "What is inside?"

"You didn't open it and take a look?"

"Of course I did! But they're all tiny pieces of iron. What's the use of these things!"

She probably couldn't think of what it was even if she tried hard.

Lin Yun smiled mysteriously and said, "This is a good thing! You will know about it later!"

After saying this, Lin Yun picked up the cloth bag, turned around and walked towards his operation room.

Oona curled her lips and went back to rest.

Lin Yun came to the workshop, opened the cloth bag, and looked at the parts of the assembled pistol with joy in his eyes.

However, these parts are too crudely made.

There is extra scrap iron at the corners, and every part is asymmetrical and really looks like scrap iron.

But Lin Yun had been mentally prepared for a long time. It would be damned if this blacksmith shop could produce parts that satisfied him in one go.

Afterwards, Lin Yun made a simple version of the grinder.

In fact, it is a grinding wheel.

However, the rotation of the grinding wheel is driven by Lin Yun's feet, just like riding a bicycle.

The grinding wheel is turning, and he is grinding the parts for secondary processing.

Although it may seem like a small job, the smaller it gets, the more difficult it is. Some small places cannot be touched by the grinding wheel at all.

Lin Yun spent a lot of effort and two whole hours before he could barely polish a gun barrel.

He didn't know how the old blacksmith made this cylindrical barrel, but it looked better than he imagined.

Just then, there was a knock on the door.

"Who?"

Lin Yun stopped the grinding wheel and asked.

"Sir, it's Manager Ma who's here!!"

It was the old village chief who spoke.

Lin Yun's eyes lit up and he said: "Please come quickly!!"

He waited for more than half a month.

The door was pushed open, and Ma Ji and the old village chief walked in side by side. It was also the first time for Ma Ji to come to where Lin Yun worked. Although the room was messy, it still surprised him.

Because he saw a large number of perfumes that had been made and placed neatly on the table. Especially the strong aroma could be smelled from a long distance.

Ma Ji did not wear official robes this time, but a black robe.

"I have met Mr. Lin!"

Lin Yun smiled and said: "Manager Ma, I have been looking forward to the stars and the moon, and finally you are here!"

Ma Ji smiled awkwardly and said: "Don't blame Mr. Lin. Logically speaking, I should have come to see you last week, but the third lady should have told you too! The imperial court sent an imperial envoy who kept finding faults with me, especially in my internal affairs. The mansion is a place where the focus is taken care of, so..."

Lin Yun waved his hand and said: "Manager Ma, there is no need to explain! I have already guessed it! How about it? Is there any good news this time?"

He also pretended to be calm, but in fact, he was almost unable to uncover the pot.

Now it is completely consuming the old capital, which was the money that had been saved to pay off the debts of the three ladies.

Ma Ji rubbed his hands and smiled and said: "Of course! Mr. Lin's plan last time was really clever! I just used a little trick and successfully got Mr. Fu Yin's wife to help us publicize it. After that, I spent some time at my leisure. Yu, just visit one by one! Those ladies and ladies are really willing to spend money!"

As he spoke, he took out a stack of banknotes from his arms.

"Sir, this is two thousand taels of silver! Please accept it!"

Lin Yun's eyes lit up and he said, "Sold a hundred bottles?"

"Not so much! It's just that... I want to stock up on some so that I can sell them easily when the time comes!"

Ma Ji looked embarrassed. When he came, he also thought of an excuse.

But no matter what he says, it will reveal his intention to make a profit.

This idea came to him because of the confidence he gained from visiting each family.

He found that these ladies and ladies were indeed not short of money.

Therefore, he raised the unit price of the perfume to thirty taels of silver as soon as he opened his mouth, and these ladies and ladies really agreed, and no one negotiated the price.

This fully proves what Lin Yun said before, and the valuation is also quite accurate.

Lin Yun showed an intriguing smile and said: "So that's what Manager Ma thinks! This is a good thing! It proves that Manager Ma has already started on the road! But... you want to eat both sides, isn't that a bit too much?"

Ma Ji quickly waved his hand and said: "No... Mr. Lin misunderstood! Xiaguan has already thought about it! You don't have to pay favors to Xiaguan in the future, as long as you can continuously supply Xiaguan with these perfumes!"

He just acted as a middleman to earn the price difference without any investment at all. He could easily make money by relying on his strong connections, so he was naturally happy.

Moreover, such a small bottle can net him ten taels of silver. This thing is still a consumable. If he sells it for many years, he will make a fortune.

That's why he suddenly changed his decision.

And he has not come to Niubei Village to see Lin Yun during this period. It is not because he is really busy and has no time, but because he has not thought of a good excuse.

Lin Yun then nodded with satisfaction and said, "Okay! Manager Ma is indeed reliable! Since it is a win-win situation now, I wish us a happy cooperation!"

“A pleasure to work with… a pleasure to work with!”

Ma Ji nodded and shook hands with Lin Yun.

He doesn't have the majesty of being an official now, he looks like a profiteer.

It can be said that this time the cooperation between Lin Yun and Ma Ji has been highly tied, and neither of them can do without the other.

Lin Yun needs to open up sales, and he certainly can't do it on his own. Only Ma Ji can help.

If he were to find the Qiu family father and son, they would definitely be brutally slaughtered.

To be able to sell Ma Ji at a high price, it also needs guaranteed products.
