After lunch, Lin Xu took Yang Min to the east end of the village.
Now, Yang Min has the "official identity" of Ruolan's distant cousin and no longer needs to hide at home every day.
"Sir, is this the land you are talking about? It's really not small! And it's very flat! The most important thing is, there is a river nearby! The biggest fear when opening a textile workshop is a fire! Because the things in the workshop,
They are all flammable! Once a fire breaks out, the consequences will be disastrous! There is a river nearby, which is really great!"
Yang Min looked at this place and was very satisfied and praised it repeatedly!
"Xiao Min, after our workshop is completed, what kind of fabrics will you mainly make?"
"Of course it's cotton!"
Yang Min answered without thinking, and then explained in detail!
"There are three main types of fabrics on the market now, silk, cotton and linen. Silk is too expensive, only those with money can afford it, and sales are too small! As for linen, although it is cheaper, the fabric is rough and very uncomfortable to wear. Basically
Only people with very poor families would wear it."
"However, most of these people have spinning wheels at home. They can just weave their own cloth and don't buy it in the market at all."
"So, cotton sales are the best!"
"I have made a calculation based on my family's cloth sales before. Cotton sales account for about 70%, while silk and linen combined only account for 30%!"
"Sir, you have now manufactured a new type of spinning wheel. The efficiency has been greatly improved, which means that our costs have been greatly reduced! After our cloth is spun, we can sell it at a price lower than the market price in the early stage. It will definitely become a blockbuster!
"
"There is no cloth merchant in the entire Jiangling County who can be our opponent!"
"Song Ji, just wait to die!"
The more Yang Min talked, the more excited she became, and her eyes shone brightly.
Listening to Yang Min's talk, Lin Xu always had a smile on his face. Yang Min's ideas completely coincided with his own!
This also made him more convinced that it was very appropriate for Yang Min to take the helm of the textile workshop.
After Yang Min said these words, she realized that she was just the shopkeeper, and Lin Xu was the boss. It was the boss who had to decide how the business should be done. Her job was to execute it according to the boss's wishes.
"Sir, this is my personal idea. Do you think this is okay?"
"Haha, okay, the thinking is clear, very good!"
Lin Xu smiled and said: "Cotton is indeed the future development trend. However, we do not produce cotton here. Are you familiar with the raw material supply channels?"
"Of course I'm familiar with it! Our family's original specialty was cotton! Although my brother is the shopkeeper, I help him with many things in the business, from buying cotton, to weaving, printing and dyeing, and finally
I know everything about the sale!”
"That's good!"
Lin Xu nodded: "In the initial stage of our textile workshop, we will do as you said, mainly making cotton! After we have accumulated a certain amount of accumulation, we will also make silk. Although the sales volume of silk in our Jiangling is low, but
The sales volume in Suzhou Prefecture, Hangzhou Prefecture, and even in the capital city is not low! In addition, silk can also be sold overseas!"
"Besides, our Suzhou Prefecture has always been the center of the country's textile industry. How did we get this reputation? It's not cotton, but silk!"
"With the new spinning wheel, whether we are weaving cotton or silk, our cost is much lower than others! What's more, I still have many methods that I haven't used yet!"
"I can say now that as long as our cloth enters the market, no cloth merchant in the country will be our opponent!"
"We need to do a big undertaking, and we can't just limit our vision to the small Jiangling City!" This chapter has been completed!
