Chapter 210: The Plan Comes Out
Hearing this, Yuan Li and Yuan Gao both trembled and looked at Gu Jun, full of surprise and uncertainty.
Today is different from the past. In Daqian, people are still very superstitious.
You can't say you don't believe in things like oaths, but you can at least be in awe of them.
What's more, what Gu Jun swore was a poisonous oath among poisonous oaths!
"Brother Gu, we believe it! Of course we believe you as a person. There is no need to swear such poisonous oaths." Officer Li saw that the atmosphere was not right and hurriedly smoothed things over.
"Lao Gao, what do you say now?"
Gao Yuanwai sighed and said: "I believe in your determination, Lao Gu, but after all, this is a major matter related to wealth and life, so... let's wait until the old money comes, and then we'll see."
When Gu Jun heard this, he frowned at first.
Later, I felt that what the other party said was not unreasonable, not to mention that Lao Qian was the number one cloth merchant in Jiangnan County. If Lao Qian was not convinced, the three of them would not be able to make any trouble, so they nodded and said: " Where is the old money? Why hasn’t it come yet?”
"This is the point of the appointment. Lao Qian has always been punctual, and there has been nothing important recently. There is no reason to be late." Mr. Li muttered.
Gu Jun also began to close his eyes and meditate. Suddenly, a flash of lightning flashed through his mind, making him stand up suddenly, with a look of surprise and uncertainty on his face.
"Lao Gu, what's wrong?"
"Do you think Feihong's people have already looked for old money? That's why he didn't come?" Gu Jun's voice was low and his tone was gloomy.
As soon as these words came out, Yuan Wai Li and Gao Yuan Wai couldn't sit still anymore. They stood up one after another and said, "We'd better go to Qian's Mansion now and ask Lao Qian for a clear explanation."
"If it were not for Qian's Buhang to play the leading role, how would we be able to resist Feihong at all? It would be better to pack things up earlier and go our separate ways."
When Gu Jun heard this, his expression was gloomy, but he had to admit that what Li Yuanwai said was reasonable, so he could only sigh.
However, just as the three of them pushed open the box door and were about to leave, they saw a person coming from a distance. It was the owner of Qian's cloth shop - Qian Tong!
"Old Qian, why did you come here?"
"Something happened and I was delayed."
When everyone heard this, their hearts trembled.
For the cloth industry, the Spring Festival is the most popular peak season.
After the Spring Festival, business will be much slower.
This is the situation every family is in now, with little leisure time.
So what could happen to delay his old money? Could it be that Lao Gu really told him right?
"Old Qian, we have known each other for so many years, and the circle has always regarded you as the leader."
"But today, I'm going to say something you don't want to hear."
"When Feihong was collecting shareholders before, you led everyone to fight against Shen Jibuhang. Now it's better. Shenjibuhang has transformed into Feihong. Everyone is almost forced to have no food to eat, and they don't complain. I’ll give you a few words.”
"You can't abandon your brothers and vote for Feihong alone."
"If you do something like this, you will be stabbed in the spine."
Hearing this, Qian Tong didn't know what they were thinking, so he smiled and said: "Where are you thinking? The man named Shen and I are inseparable. Even if he wants to go to Feihong, that Gu Shijun must take him first Fire me, otherwise I will be without him, and I will be without him."
"There is something really wrong with being late this time."
"Besides, it's a good thing!" Qian Tong hesitated and did not continue.
Who would have thought that this would make Mr. Li anxious.
"When did this happen? If you have any news, tell it immediately. Don't hide it. Otherwise, when Feihong robs all our business, it will be too late to tell you."
Hearing this, Qian Tong raised the corner of his mouth and said with a smile: "I have a big order. If it is completed, the profit will be as little as hundreds of thousands of taels, and as much as hundreds of thousands of taels."
boom!
As soon as these words came out, the room fell into silence for an instant.
The sound of a needle dropping could be heard, and the only sound left was the heavy breathing of a few members of staff.
"Old Qian, you can't joke about this. How can you get such a big order?" Mr. Li said tremblingly.
"Even if we are desperate, we cannot engage in illegal activities. Otherwise, if we are caught, we will be nailed to the pillar of shame and reviled by our neighbors." The senior official who had been silent could not help frowning at this time.
Only Gu Jun said with a little excitement in disbelief: "Profits of hundreds of thousands taels... If this business is really successful, there will be no need to fear Feihong anymore."
Obviously, these words deeply touched the heartstrings of the three members. But the instigator was still drinking tea leisurely.
"Old Qian! When can we not drink this tea? You should tell us about the order." Li Yuanwai urged.
Hearing this, Qian Tong stopped holding the teacup, but put down the teacup, and said seriously: "You all know that one month ago, King Zhenbei just captured the three northern counties."
"But what does that have to do with us?"
"Stupid, Yayu, Tianshui, and Linyi counties, where is it not a world of ice and snow? In addition, when the Beiyan people retreated, they either burned their clothes or took them away. So what the three northern counties now lack is a large amount of cloth!
"
"Quantity, the more the better!"
Hearing this, the eyes of the three members immediately lit up.
We are all old foxes who have been in the business world for several years, so as soon as we heard this, we noticed the business opportunities in it.
This can be profitable! And it’s a huge profit!
"Where did you get this news?" However, Gu Jun did not choose to believe it for the first time, but questioned it.
"Yes, Lao Gu's Xingwen is now employed in the three northern counties. If there is news, Lao Gu cannot possibly not know about it."
"I can even get Liuyun Satin, so I naturally have my information channels."
"As long as you know that this news is absolutely true, it is enough that it cannot be false at all!"
"Then let's go back and start work now? Try to save as much cloth as possible and then sell it all through your channels?" Gao Yuanwai took the initiative, obviously thinking about it.
In other words, in the face of such an opportunity to turn defeat into victory, who outside the three major members can not be tempted?
But when Qian Tong heard this, he shook his head and said: "I can only get the news in advance, but I can't block the news."
"After some time, Feihong will receive news sooner or later."
"When the time comes, with our size and shipments, how can we compete with others?"
As soon as these words came out, it was like pouring cold water on the three people who were thinking fiercely.
"Then what should we do? Is it possible that we really can't get through Feihong's difficulty?"
"What a disaster! Feihong is really a disaster for our merchants!"
Both Li Yuanwai and Gao Yuanwai were wailing in pain, but Gu Jun's eyes were slightly narrowed and his brain was working rapidly.
Suddenly, a flash of lightning flashed through my mind!
He straightened up suddenly, looked at Qian Tong, and said: "You mean, we should do something to take advantage of the situation before the news reaches Huainan?"
When Qian Tong heard this, he laughed and said, "Lao Gu still understands me!"
"The three northern counties are a land of bitter cold. They don't have much requirements for the comfort of their clothes and cloth, as long as they can keep warm."
"So Feihong's silks look gorgeous, but are actually not popular."
"As long as we are stronger than Feihong in terms of quantity, the overall situation will be decided!"
"As far as I know, whether it's Huainan or Jiangnan, there are quite a few cloth merchants who are forced to make a living by Feihong, right?"
"Let's unite all these people, sign a deed, and form an alliance."
Chapter completed!
