Chapter 808: Preemptive Strike
"By the way, Prince Prince, what down jacket factories did you just say that these two restaurants came into being? What does this mean?"
Seeing that the topic was wrong, Zhang Han's eyes turned and immediately changed the subject.
"Yes! I have been promoting it in the newspaper for the past two days, saying that I would set up a down jacket factory and buy useless feathers. What is this doing?"
Meng Yi followed closely behind and asked questions.
"Yes, what strange things are you fiddling with?"
Even Ying Zheng looked at him in confusion.
"Nothing, just literally!"
Ying Feiyu shrugged slightly.
"Literally?"
The few people looked at each other, completely unresolved.
"Is there anything else I don't know about this? Down means feathers and down, and this clothing naturally refers to clothes! Joining them together, that is, clothes made of feathers and down!"
Looking at the dazed expressions of the few people, Ying Feiyu had no choice but to explain to the few people.
"Make clothes with feathers? Isn't this a joke?"
After hearing his explanation, the few people found it even more incredible.
How can one make clothes with feathers?
"That's right! Feathers have a good warmth effect, and make clothes warmer than cotton!"
"You kid is quite smart. You buy a lot of ducks and geese, make feathers into clothes and sell them. The ducks are made into roast ducks, and the geese are made into iron pots? You can use them all!"
I know this guy is very active, but this is too active.
He made all the money in three aspects!
"There is no way, the feathers collected alone are not enough to supply the consumption of down jacket factories!"
Ying Feiyu shrugged helplessly.
"But in this way, will you compete with the people for profit?"
As the emperor and the leader of all people, Ying Zheng had anything new, and the first thing he thought of was what impact it would have on the people.
"Not only will it not affect the people, but it will also promote people's income growth!"
Ying Feiyu smiled confidently.
"Oh? What do you mean? You have made clothes that are warmer than cotton jackets, so the people will naturally make cotton jackets less. Wouldn't the cotton grown by cotton farmers have lost sales?"
"No, no, no, cotton has many uses. Making cotton jackets is just one of them, and it is the one with the least consumption! Weaving cotton into cloth is the most consumption! So, even if all the people change to wear down jackets, it will not have much impact on the sales of cotton!"
"The main raw material of down jackets is feathers, the output will not be too large, and the price will be higher than that of cotton jackets! For example, those who are not well-off in families will still choose affordable cotton jackets!"
"In addition, purchasing feathers can increase people's income! Purchasing live ducks and geese can also promote the development of the breeding industry, so that people can have more ways to make money while farming!"
Ying Feiyu explained in detail.
The old guys nodded repeatedly.
"Well, Your Highness the Crown Prince is right! I really didn't expect that a small down jacket could actually drive the economy of Daqin!"
"Yes! Every time His Royal Highness does something, he is thinking about the Qin Dynasty and the people! I really didn't expect that a few simple shops can still drive the economy of the people!"
After some explanation, everyone realized that this invisibly created opportunities for the people to make money.
"Every household has surplus food. After feeding ducks and geese, you can exchange them for money. It's really a good idea!"
Ying Zheng also had a smile on his face.
"Actually, the duck and geese still like to eat grass. Whether it is the elderly or children, they can be driven out to feed them, and it will not delay the young and strong laborers in the family going to work in the fields! When the grass is withered and yellow, the ducks and geese grow up and can be sold directly!"
"In the past, people would not raise a large amount of breeding. Now down jacket factories have been purchasing them all year round, so people will definitely make the money, and even many breeding farms are born that specialize in breeding for a living!"
Ying Feiyu said while gnawing on the meat in the pot.
"Well, you guys did a good job!"
Ying Zheng was very satisfied with this.
I used to think that this kid was just concerned about making money and didn't bring them with me.
Unexpectedly, I had other plans and was promoting people's income!
"Father, several ministers, you should eat, don't just look at it..."
Everyone was immersed in Xiao Zhengtai’s words before, but now that he reminded him, everyone suddenly realized that there was a lot less meat in the pot.
"You little brat, where are my duck legs?"
Ying Zheng also cursed.
How long has it been, the duck leg he just was about to pull was gone!
"Hehe, my son first tastes how it tastes for my father!"
Ying Feiyu gnawed off the last piece of meat from the duck leg bone in his hand and shook the bone in his hand.
"you……"
Ying Zheng was so angry that his teeth were itchy, and he even began to wonder if this kid was just using the words to divert their attention, with the purpose of relieving them from their food and drink.
"Your Highness, your speed is too fast, right?"
After discovering that all the best pieces of meat in the pot were gone, the old guys also had a bitter face.
"There is no choice. After the morning court, I went straight to this place. I haven't even eaten a bite of the meal yet! Besides, no one will let you eat it!"
Ying Feiyu shrugged, showing a natural expression.
"Come on, eat it quickly. If you don't eat it, you won't even have these!"
Seeing Ying Feiyu picking up chopsticks again, the old guys quickly rushed to scramble.
"This is mine!"
"What's yours, I picked it up first!"
"I saw it first!"
"If you go to this thing first, it will naturally belong to whoever you want to see it. What's the use of just seeing it?"
"Well! It's delicious. This method is much better than what we stewed at home before!"
"The roast duck tastes amazing! It's not fishy or stinky, crispy on the outside and tender on the inside...!"
The old people who officially started eating were praised and couldn't stop.
Ying Feiyu had enough food and drink, said hello to the old guys, and immediately flew away!
As for whoever paid for the meal, he wouldn't care!
Anyway, these old guys are all rich, so they don’t have to pay for this meal at all!
Until nightfall, there were still many waiting in line at the entrances of the two shops.
Originally, the curfew system of Daqin was very strict, and I was worried that someone would make trouble at night!
But two years ago, Ying Feiyu had already proposed to lift the curfew.
At that time, the people were able to eat and wear a warm and peaceful life!
Life is stable, who is willing to come out to rob the house at night?
However, there are not many patrols at night. If you find that someone is still in trouble, you will be punished immediately!
After the curfew was lifted, the opening time of stores in Xianyang City was delayed a lot, and restaurants would be opened until late at night!
The roast duck restaurant is no exception. It was not until midnight that the people gradually left!
The shopkeeper dialed the abacus all day and really counted the money and the hands were cramped!
It’s a pity that nothing is his money!
The waiter also ran back and forth all day, and felt that his legs were almost no longer theirs!
The cook is almost the same, and he keeps busy!
Chapter completed!
