this……
Xu Qian looked at Zhao Ping in shock.
Isn't this a fool?
Even if you know our purpose, you can't just say it in front of us, right?
Doesn’t this make it clear that he is on the opposite side of us?
There is no city and no scheming.
Xu Qian labeled Zhao Ping.
This kind of person is the easiest to deal with.
Xu Qian was not embarrassed and laughed, "Mr. Zhao, what are you talking about? We can place an order, so naturally we hope you can complete it without delaying our use."
"We are all businessmen. There is no need to seize the property. Wouldn't it be better to make a fortune together?"
Even the title was changed from Zhao Ping to Mr. Zhao, deliberately raising Zhao Ping's status and bringing him into an equal position with them.
Others also agreed, praising Zhao Ping's extraordinary ability for being able to weave so much cloth in such a short period of time.
Tongbai, the only owner of the largest cloth shop in Donghai County, asked curiously, "Mr. Zhao, how do you weave so many pieces of cloth?"
"secret."
Zhao Ping said with a smile.
"snort!"
Tong Bai snorted coldly, "Everyone can tell lies. For now, you'd better take out the 20,000 pieces of cloth."
"Bring your carriages and horses over here, and I'll order people to load the cloth."
Zhao Ping said.
"Won't you let us see?"
Tongbai frowned, "What if there's something wrong with your cloth?"
"For example, passing off inferior products as good ones."
"Come here, will it be too late for you to watch?"
Zhao Ping asked: "Or do you want to see how I weave? Want to learn my skills?"
Tongbai's old face turned red when his evil plan was exposed.
Fortunately, it's dark enough that it's hard to see.
"snort!"
"I own the largest cloth factory in Donghai County, and the textile technology is all passed down from the capital. Do you really think I will covet your poor skills?"
"So best."
Zhao Ping said indifferently: "Everyone, please wait here for now."
After saying this, Zhao Ping asked some villagers to help pull the carriage, donkey cart and the like to the factory base.
As for outsiders, they are absolutely not allowed to enter the production base.
There are not only new brewing techniques, but also new textile machines, and even Zhang Jiuya, who forges weapons, has moved there. It is Zhao Ping's biggest support in the Dawei Dynasty and must not be lost.
The guards are tighter than the Zhao family.
A piece of cloth weighs about twenty kilograms, and a carriage can carry twenty pieces, which is already the limit.
Twenty thousand pieces of cloth would require at least a thousand carriages.
Each of the five families brought only ten carriages and fifty carriages, which could only transport a thousand pieces of cloth at a time.
Including loading and unloading, it takes almost a full day.
Unload it at the east entrance of the village.
As for how to deal with the five families, it is Zhao Ping's business.
Tongbai and others also carefully inspected the cloth and made sure there were no quality problems before accepting it.
Soon it was noon.
Mu Qiaoqiao made braised pork, sweet and sour pork ribs, etc.
In such an era where vegetarian food is the mainstay, the fragrance can spread for two miles.
Xu Qian and others naturally smelled it.
My stomach has made an unsatisfactory growl.
"Mr. Zhao, it's almost noon now. Can you let us in for a quick meal?"
Xu Qian came up and asked.
"Excuse me."
Zhao Ping shook his head, "The documents between us only say that one hand delivers the goods and the other hand pays the money. There is no such thing as taking care of the food."
"So, I can't promise you."
"We can spend money."
Xu Qi'an didn't give up, it was so delicious.
It tasted better than the food he had eaten at Yipinxiang, and his greedy stomach had already been aroused.
"I can pay five taels of silver for a meal."
"I'm not short of money."
Zhao Ping said disdainfully: "After the cloth is delivered, you will still give me ten thousand taels of silver, not less than five or eight taels."
"Fifty taels."
Xu Qian said again.
"Not for sale."
Zhao Ping refused directly, "Huzi, let's go home for dinner."
"Sir, you eat first."
Li Hu shook his head, "I'm here to guard. If they dare to go in and rob, I will let them lie down and go home."
"you!"
Xu Qi'an frowned deeply.
To deal with Zhao Ping, naturally we also investigated Zhao Ping's situation.
First of all, he comes from a second-rate background.
You can find this out with just a quick search.
Secondly, he is a medical officer.
The medical officer who impressed Lin Hua of Yun'an County even became a disciple on the spot in front of the county magistrate Huang Fengnian.
Tian Fuhai’s daughter Tian Rou was also cured.
At the same time, he was also a contributor to solving the plague in Yun'an County.
Nowadays, all the people in Yun'an County are praising Zhao Ping, and many people even have statues of Zhao Ping enshrined in their homes.
Finally, Zhao Ping is still a businessman.
He runs acacia wine, a textile factory, and even runs an escort agency, but he has never been an escort.
As for the suppression of bandits, Zhao Ping and Xu Tianhua deliberately concealed it, and no news was spread.
Even if they investigate, they can only find Xu Tianhua and Qi Liang.
Xu Tianhua is not in Yun'an County and cannot verify it.
Qi Liang went to suppress the bandits. No need to explain, this is the best proof.
However, no one dared to underestimate Zhao Ping.
Especially Li Hu beside him.
From what Tian Fuhai said, he was a master who could defeat Zhou An with one move.
Although they also brought some guards and entourage, most of them were unloading cloth and were very tired. They wanted to rush up to grab food, but it would be strange if they didn't get beaten all over the ground.
Xu Qian did not dare to cause trouble to Zhao Ping, so he could only vent his anger on Tian Fuhai.
"Tian Fuhai, what bad idea did you come up with?"
"That's right, Tian Fuhai, should you give us an explanation for today's situation?"
Tongbai and others also pressed Tian Fuhai.
According to the agreement, others who want acacia wine want acacia wine, and those who want a textile factory want a textile factory.
But Tian Fuhai wanted someone.
He planned to make Zhao Ping his slave and brew acacia wine for their Tian family forever. This was the long-term solution.
But the problem is that Zhao Ping came up with 20,000 pieces of cloth.
Zhao Ping could not be coerced to complete the document requirements.
Tian Fuhai was also a little dumbfounded.
statement?
What explanation can he give?
He could only apologize and say with a smile: "Masters, you really can't blame me for this matter. No one thought that Zhao Ping could really spin 20,000 pieces of cloth in a month."
"Master Tong, you are in charge of the largest cloth factory in Donghai County. Do you believe that a textile factory in a small village can produce 20,000 pieces of cloth in a month?"
"Do not believe."
Tongbai immediately shook his head.
Just kidding, even if his textile factory wanted to produce 20,000 pieces of cloth in a month, it would be difficult for him to do so.
After all, textile machines are too expensive, one costs twenty-five taels of silver.
They only prepared 400 looms in the cloth shop in the county town, which cost 10,000 taels of silver.
Being able to produce 10,000 pieces of cloth every month is pretty good. It can meet the expenses of the county and city, and at the same time, it can also sell some for takeout.
If it is expanded any further, it will be a waste.
Zhao Ping's textile factory has just been built. How many textile workers can it recruit?
How many looms can there be?
Twenty thousand pieces of cloth were spun in a month. Even if his eyes could see it, Tongbai felt it was unreal.
It is thought that Zhao Ping bought the cloth from somewhere else.
However, this did not prevent him from holding a grudge against Tian Fuhai and dragging him along to deal with Zhao Ping. In the end, he did not even lose anything, and his work was all in vain.
Then he said coldly: "Tian Fuhai, if you don't believe it, don't believe it. Now that Zhao Ping has handed over the goods, there will be nothing wrong with us."
"You can stay in Xiping Village by yourself, and we will go to Yun'an County to drink and eat meat."
"Yes, let's go."
Xu Qian agreed.
The other two people also nodded.
The four of them took their accompanying servants and even the carriage away.
Tian Fuhai, Tian Zhen, Zhou An, and the escort servants they brought were left behind, plus ten carriages and a pile of cloth.
How to transport this...?
Tian Fuhai wanted to cry but had no tears. He felt like he shot himself in the foot.
Am I wrong?
Shouldn't he listen to Tian Yi and become Zhao Ping's enemy?
Tian Fuhai fell into deep self-doubt.
