Section 539: Unequal Commercial War
This year, cotton will drop sharply, and cotton and linen are actually cloth. For ordinary people, linen is so cheap. This year, few people will definitely buy cotton coats, and fine linen underwear is actually quite good.
Not to mention cotton cloth, even silk will have a decline in sales.
Han Jiang has prepared a lot of money and has been waiting for a chain of price cuts caused by the plummeting price of silk.
Once the price is reduced, Han Jiang will buy a large amount in Lin'an City, and then add half to 10% to each silk weaver.
All these silks were shipped to Nanyang.
Han Tuozhou returned to Han Mansion, sat in the study and said to Han An: "Brother An, send someone to tell Qian Kuan. Let me control the time when the second batch of cloth arrives in Lin'an. When they move the cloth of these hundred ships back to the warehouse, even if they bring empty ships, they will set up two hundred ships for me."
After listening, Han An whispered: "Master, Shaojun said that the new ships in Yinan City are all 850 new sea ships, and the number of linens has been stored in about four million in the past six months."
Han Tuozhou's eyes widened: "Didn't it mean that a hydroloom can weave one and a half pieces in a day and night?"
Han An explained: "One piece of Yinan City is 100 feet, which is ten feet. In other words, the new loom is only weaving, regardless of the length. No matter the hopper is full, people will measure the size and pack it."
One of Lin'an City is forty feet, and Han Tuozhou asked: "Then are four million horses a hundred feet or forty feet?"
Han An knew: "The ones transported to the army were 100 feet per horse, and the ones sold to the market were 40 feet per horse. Four months ago, a large water truck could drive twenty looms, with about 230 heavy water power. Then new water trucks were constantly being built, which means that the number of looms had already exceeded 5,000 looms."
Han Tuozhou understood: "In other words, 800,000 feet of fabric can be weaved in one day and night?"
"It's almost the same, but I know that it shouldn't be all from Yinan City. There are Yidong City and Yibei New City at present. Lao Nu said that there should be all there, and there are more than fifty weaving workshops at present."
Han Tuozhou originally wanted 200 ships of 500 materials to embarrass Duke Sixiu.
But now, according to Han An's words, wouldn't it be too much if three hundred and eight hundred and fifty ships are filled with cloth?
While Han Tuozhou was thinking, Han An said again: "I forgot to say that although there are a lot of cloth, the dye seems not enough. Although there are a lot of dyed grass in Jiaozhi, it takes at least 100 days to turn the grass into dye. If you want to have a good color, you have to add twenty more days. Most of the cloth in Yinan City is undyed."
"It doesn't matter, it doesn't matter whether it is destined or not."
"Yes, it can be used without stain. The demand for white fine linen in Lin'an every year is also huge. What's more, the cost of our fine linen is one-seventh of that of our Yanzhou linen."
Han An's sentence had no other meaning. He originally thought Han Tuozhou knew about it.
But after hearing this, Han Tuozhou almost threw away the tea bowl.
It is only one-seventh of Yanzhou linen.
This bastard, Han Tuozhou began to scold Han Jiang in his heart. He didn't tell himself such an important thing. It would be like to spend 30% of the market price in Lin'an. You can even make a profit of half the price, and you still have two or three times the profit.
Han Tuozhou cursed Han Jiang for a while and slapped the table gently: "Brother An, since that's the case, don't show mercy. Next, I'll see who will cry and pretend to be pitiful. I'll send a message to Qian Kuan and our shops. When the mansion of Duke Sixiu was moved by one hundred ships and six hundred thousand pieces of cloth, the new cloth was not stained, and the price was reduced by 100%."
"Yes, I'm going to do it."
If you don’t dye, you will definitely need to reduce the cost of dyeing. White linen is originally a separate product.
This is wider than the original Lin'an fabric, and can be directly used as a quilt. For ordinary people, this saves a lot. It was originally made of two pieces of cloth, and a quilt requires fourteen feet, but now it only needs seven feet.
Suddenly, Han Tuozhou remembered a sentence from Han Jiang.
The top of the industry is to set rules and standards.
Then, the fabric has a wider width. If the original fabric is not enough, the original fabric will not be easy to sell, and not everyone can make a wide-width loom.
In fact, the outcome of this Lin'an Bushi battle has been decided before the battle was fought.
The moonlight is in the sky, and the night is already late.
Li Jing still couldn't find Han Jiang, so he had no choice but to go home.
Speaking of Wancheng and Xiangyang.
The three camps belonging to the Zaoyang Army soared into the sky. The Xinyang Army, about 200 miles away from the Zaoyang Army, received a letter of emergency rescue and went to fight to prepare to rescue the Zaoyang Army.
The army was gathering in the barracks, and countless torches appeared around them.
The Xinyang Army, stationed in Guangzhou, belonged to the absolute front line of the anti-Jin period. It was originally affiliated with the four counties. Forty years ago, Xinxi County and Baoxin County were assigned to Caizhou and belonged to the Jin Dynasty.
After the Wancheng army conquered Caizhou, they naturally would not let these two counties go.
The Zaoyang army was besieged, and the Xiangyang army on the west side and the Xinyang army on the east side naturally had to send troops to rescue them.
The Xinyang Army did not know how many people the Xiangyang Army sent. The Xinyang Army sent about 30% of its troops and was about to go out of the camp. The countless torches around made the Xinyang Army give up its plan to go out of the camp.
Woo...
This sound!
The loud voice is used in the army, also known as recruiting troops. It is one meter long, and two people need to carry it in the front and one person behind is responsible for blowing it.
If the force is less than 10,000, the army will not use large numbers.
Immediately afterwards, another long trumpet sounded, and the sound spread far in the darkness.
One after another, a continuous loud noise sounded.
Suddenly, the loud squeal stopped suddenly, and a terrible silence fell into the surroundings.
Dong, Dongdong!
The sound of drums appeared in the northwest of Xinyang Army.
The new recruits who have been in the army for three months can hear it. This is the marching drum. The veterans can even hear the distance of the drum.
Then, drums began to appear in the four directions, namely north, northeast and west.
A veteran of Xinyang Army couldn't help but grab the gun in his hand: "Eight hundred, eight hundred war drums, at least..."
No need to guess, because people have already appeared within visible range.
All the black lacquer is in the water.
One square after another, the footsteps of each step are like a person.
With this marching alone, no veteran dares to underestimate the other party. This is an elite, an absolute elite.
At a distance of 150 steps, the soldier stopped, everyone in the square sat down to rest, and countless figures began to run, pushing the catapult cart, and the crossbow cart began to move forward.
The footsteps did not stop.
Another unit is still approaching.
Another large formation of more than 5,000 people, all of which are Zhuqishan Wenjia.
Chapter completed!
