Pastoral Valley Fragrance

Chapter 354 Price War

Pingfu helped Ruyi home in a hurry, nagging, "Such cheap cotton cloth doesn't make much money in the first place. If they sell it like this, what business do you think we have over there?"

Ruyi didn't know the important point, but Pingfu said something was wrong, so she believed her husband, and continued to say happily: "Isn't that good? Anyway, they sell it so cheap, maybe they want to deal with the goods and return home? Besides, you see that this street is in such a location, it will not affect our shop anyway, anyway, in this weather, I am afraid that many people will buy cotton cloth."

Pingfu couldn't say why, but he was just worried, "Although I don't know what's wrong, it's just that Boss An told me before that people who do business always want to make money for themselves, so it doesn't make sense to look at it like this. , there must be some other tricks, anyway, I will go to Yunjin Pavilion to find them later."

Ruyi chuckled, "No matter what it is, there is nothing wrong with it. It is best to inquire about it. If there is nothing wrong with it, we will buy back all their cotton cloth and transport it to other places for sale. Is it still possible? Make a fortune."

It's a pity that Pingfu laughed a little, went to the house, closed the door, and went straight to Yunjin Pavilion.

When he arrived, shopkeeper Wen frowned and stared at the street closely, as if he was afraid of missing any figure. When he saw someone looking over, he opened his mouth and smiled, ready to welcome in, but seeing that the person had no intention of coming in, he was With a look of disappointment, he muttered, "Even if it's raining and no one comes, there's no need to be so deserted. It's early in the morning, and I finally sold two feet of damask. Listen to what others say, and buy it back for bordering. ? What needs such attention?”

Pingfu walked up to him, "Brother Wen, isn't Huzi here? You want to see the shop yourself?"

Shopkeeper Wen shook his head, "Huzi went home to serve his wife, and asked me to look at the shop. There was no business in the past two days anyway. I still don't believe it. You said that when the business is good, you are very busy, but now you are deserted. I'm really not used to it. Hey, what are you doing with the cotton cloth? It was brought from the workshop? Why don't you go back to accompany your wife?"

Pingfu smiled stupidly, a little startled, even more impatient, and said, "Master Wen, I went out with Ruyi to buy this cotton cloth today, do you know how much it is?"

Shopkeeper Wen patted him on the shoulder, "You boy, it's cheaper not to stick to the shop as before, but it's only you who have the steadfast duty. How much do you think this cotton cloth is?"

As he spoke, he unfolded the cotton cloth, and touched it carefully, "Six taels?"

Pingfu was also not used to detours, so he shook his head suddenly, "Four taels!"

Shopkeeper Wen stopped dozing off, and stared wide-eyed, "Four...four taels! Where did you buy it? Others, what kind of business method is this?"

Pingfu nodded, "I also find it strange, but it's on Pingshun Street, I don't know about other places, but it's been three or four days, and cotton cloth is sold like this every day. , it seems that everyone around is aware of it, so I just wanted to come over and tell you."

Shopkeeper Wen seemed to understand something, greeted Pingfu, and gave him four taels of silver, "This cotton cloth is supposed to be bought by you, look at the shop, I'll go out for a while."

The news of getting back startled Shopkeeper Wen, not only in Pingshun Street, but in addition to the few places where they have shops in Yunjin Pavilion, the cloth shops in those small streets have lowered their prices by a lot at the same time, except for cotton cloth, it is The same is true for brocade and fine silk, no wonder there is no business in Yunjin Pavilion.He didn't dare to stay. It's not unreasonable to be wary of the Xie family these days. As soon as he saw this, he thought about him, and quickly informed An Jinxuan and An Jinlin, and even An Jinhua came over. Duan Wuwei went to Pingzhou, and the rest sat in the hall.

Shopkeeper Wen began to speak, "If it wasn't for Pingfu who came to tell me, I wouldn't have paid attention to such things. The streets where those shops are located are not very prosperous, but if they sell those cotton cloths and ordinary satin, that's enough. Let us not pay attention, and Bi Ling is also [-]% cheaper than our damask, and now basically only some old relationships come to the door, in the future... It's hard to say."

An Jinxuan frowned, was it the Xie family that Jing Zhe said was the attack?How could he be so blatant, and why would his old fox do such a thing?It shouldn't do him any good, right? "Do you know why those shops are like this?"

Shopkeeper Wen shook his head, "I didn't have time to ask, but there were few people coming to our place these two days. When I went there, I checked carefully. The original owners of these shops have changed, and the new owners have only taken over half a year. You have been lukewarm all the time, could it be that you want to use this trick to win people over?"

An Jinhua has been silent since he came here, but now he is chatting with An Jinlin, "Let me tell you, there used to be a landlord and a countryman who didn't have much knowledge. I thought about it at night, but I didn't think of any way, so I had to put it in the room and hug it..."

An Jinlin was still thinking about what shopkeeper Wen said just now, and he was impatient, "Why are you talking about this at this time? You said you have a way to rush over here, but you don't know how now, what are you talking about here? ?”

An Jinhua rolled his eyes, "Then who do you dare to say is the person who knows the Xie family best here? It's me. Although I fell into his hands before, I made a mistake, and I didn't take precautions at the time, but now It’s different, can’t I say it?”

An Jinlin didn't know what to say, An Jinhua laughed happily, as if he was not affected at all, and continued the story just now, "After that, he thought of a way to melt 2000 taels of silver and cast it into a big This way, no thieves can take it away, so you can sit back and relax. Haha, hahaha—”

An Jinxuan looked into his eyes, "You mean that Xie's family is going to die. Although this method is stupid, it is useful?"

An Jinhua smiled proudly at An Jinlin, "Look at you, he is much smarter than you, and the family business must be handed over to him in the final analysis, we have to be convinced, the foundation of the Xie family for so many years, As for our side, it’s obvious that we’ve already lost our vitality, right? Now he’s not sure about what kind of means he can use, but if it drags on for a long time, what do you think we still have a chance of winning?”

The faces of several people present were a little pale.An Jinhua's words may not sound good, but it is the truth. Xie Hong's move is not smart, but he is prepared, and what about them?There is not much money left, if it is delayed for a year or so, how many people will come back to our shop?If we can't get the goods out and the money can't come back, then I'm afraid we won't be able to give the money promised to Wuxian raw silk, let alone how the purchasing department will explain it.

Shopkeeper Wen clapped his hands, suddenly excited, "I...I remember!"

An Jinxuan was puzzled, "Remember what?"

"Gu Yu said it last time, what is it called, is it broken silver or something?"

An Jinhua said in a low voice, "What are you talking about? The silver will break too? It's funny!"

Shopkeeper Wen still wanted to say, isn't that what Gu Yu said that day?What's wrong, he still intends to send someone to send a message to her as agreed before, as soon as this situation arises.

An Jinxuan made a decisive decision, "Let's wait for two more days to see what happens. If it really doesn't work, we'll drop some appropriately. I've done the math. If a piece of material drops one or two or two, as long as the time is right After more than two months, it should be manageable."

This is probably the only way to do it, otherwise what else can I do?When I met a deadly opponent, I had to spend it.

The situation was not as optimistic as expected. In two days, even the original regular customers were a little shaken. Someone came to tell them, "The people in those shops also approached the Lu family, saying that the servants wanted to buy more clothes. , you can go to their place, our side..."

An Jinxuan gritted his teeth, "Two taels down!"

Shopkeeper Wen shook his head, and finally there were people in the shop that hadn't opened for a few days, but things didn't get much better. After a day, no one came to the door again.

In the continuous autumn rain, everyone's frowning brows have never been loosened.

In the house that night, An Jinxuan told everyone the bad news, "Those shops have lowered another one or two. If this continues, we will be in trouble. Let's lower it, and the money recovered will not be able to make up for the vacancy." , No surrender, no business coming to the door, so we can only keep those things, and next year they will only be old goods. Xie Hong really gave us a problem, this time I am afraid it will be difficult. No wonder Jingzhe will make me ready. "

An Jinxuan can't afford to spend a day here, and Xie's family, because of the reduced price of cotton cloth, and other materials are also sold out, seeing that it is getting more and more prosperous. With this, Yunjin Pavilion has nowhere to go .

The people from the Hua family came once, but they could only send two new looks, so there were still few people.Fortunately, the people in the shop and workshop were not in a panic. They each did their own work, and they couldn't help with anything else, so they had no choice but to not add to the chaos.

Time didn't stop because of Xie's pride, nor because of Yunjin Pavilion's gloom.It's another autumn morning.

An Jinxuan's hair was turning gray, and he still hadn't thought of how to deal with it, let alone how to fight back. He hadn't slept all night, and he hadn't found anything. When Huzi unloaded the door panel, he saw a black shadow in the shop, which made him startled. Jumping, he took a closer look and it turned out to be An Jinxuan, "An... Boss An, you?"

An Jinxuan shook his head, stood up, and walked into the autumn rain. The slight coolness made him wake up a little bit, and he saw a group of carriages entering the street with blurred eyes. , and there was no one on the street at this time, he turned to Huzi and said, "There are so many people here so early, it seems that we also need to do business well, and we will always find a way."

The carriage has already arrived in front of him, and a person jumped off the first one, "Brother Jinxuan!"

An Jinxuan smiled happily, "Gu Yu!"
