For Qin Miao, the luminous pearl in front of him was already a coveted existence, but Shao Xi told him that this luminous pearl was nothing compared to his business! So how big is this business? Qin Miao couldn't imagine it.
Although the Qin family father and son have used all kinds of overt and covert, legal and unfair means to accumulate wealth over the past few decades, it seems that before the business mentioned by the young man in front of them, their little family property seems to be Became insignificant.
What business can bring such huge wealth? Qin Miao was completely moved.
For him, whether or not to cooperate with Shao Xi in business is secondary. What he cares about is the wealth. If he can kill his partners and monopolize the wealth like he did when the Qin family started, he believes that in the future The Qin family will be as rich as any other country. How can they not be tempted by this huge benefit?
However, Qin Miao is still quite cautious. He doesn't know if Shao Xi is bluffing. He must be 100% sure before he cooperates with such a stranger. Moreover, he must find out whether Shao Xi has any background. In order to judge whether we can attack Shao Xi in the future, and how to do it?
"I am now the head of the Qin family. If Mr. Shao has any business, just discuss it with me. My father has been recuperating for many years and no longer cares about the business, so I don't need to do anything for him. I can make the decision. .”
Shao Xi didn't want to be too deliberate. Since Qin Miao said that he could make the decision, then just talk to him. When it came to the things where he couldn't make the decision, he would naturally call the old guy out, so Shao Xi didn't in a hurry.
"Since Boss Qin said so, I will talk to Boss Qin. My business is divided into two parts. In the first part, I plan to spend all the large quantities of cloud yarn in Jiangnan for hoarding. Boss Qin also does the cloud yarn business. , you should know that the price of cloud yarn in Yujiang County dropped sharply a few months ago, which is a good opportunity to buy in large quantities.
"It's just that I've consumed a lot of money on hand, and I need to find a partner to invest a lot of money to help me complete the acquisition and hoarding of Yunsha. This business is very profitable, so I came to see Qin Let’s discuss with the boss to see if Boss Qin is willing to participate in this business?
"If Boss Qin is willing to participate, you only need to pay some money, and I will take care of all the other things. Whatever Boss Qin earns by then, just give me 10% of your hard-earned money."
As soon as Shao Xi said this, Qin Miao smiled and said to Shao Xi with a knowing look: "Master Shao, this is not wise! Then the price of Yujiang County's cloud yarn dropped a few months ago. I heard it was because The Zhao family was disposed of by an official from the capital, and the Yunsha industry they had controlled for many years changed hands.
"Since the tax on yarn has dropped, the price of yarn has also dropped. Judging from the current situation, the price of yarn will not rise again in a few years. Mr. Shao, you choose to buy a large amount of yarn at this time. If you start hoarding, wouldn’t you throw all these clouds into your hands? You might lose all your money by then!”
The Qin family has been in the gauze business for many years, and they are very familiar with the market of gauze. Based on so many years of experience, although the price of gauze seems to have dropped significantly at the moment, there is a possibility that it will rise again. It is also extremely low. After all, as the Zhao family controls the yarn industry all year round, it is difficult for the private yarn tax to happen again in the short term. In the future, the price of yarn will be stable for a long time.
Therefore, the current practice of buying a large amount of cloud yarn at a low price, hoarding it and waiting for the price to increase before selling it is indeed extremely risky. Qin Miao will naturally not do this kind of business that is very likely to lose money.
But what Shao Xi said next made him change his mind.
Seeing Shao Xi put his hand into the bag again, Qin Miao's heart was moved. He didn't know what kind of treasure Shao Xi was going to take out. His eyes were unconsciously staring at the hand that Shao Xi put into the bag, with greed in his eyes. , as if he wanted to snatch Shao Xi's satchel away.
What he didn't expect was that what Shao Xi took out from his bag was a riding whip, but it was not an ordinary riding whip, but a gold-wire riding whip.
The riding whip is made of gold threads and looks bright and shiny, like gold.
"Boss Qin is well-informed, can you tell what this riding whip is made of?"
Qin Miao took the golden horsewhip from Shao Xi's hand, turned it over and looked at it repeatedly, with a look of surprise on his face again, and couldn't help but look up at Shao Xi.
"This is..., is it woven from the python skin of the golden dragon python that is unique to Bozhou? This golden dragon python is rare in the world. Judging from the quality of the python skin used to weave the riding whip, it is at least a golden dragon python that is over two feet tall. Such a golden dragon python The leather is considered to be the best in the world.
"Using this kind of python skin to weave a riding whip is really a rare luxury in the world! I didn't expect that Mr. Shao would have so many treasures. Today, Qin really opened his eyes and gained knowledge. "
Shao Xi took back the riding whip and put it back into his bag. Qin Miao was so jealous!
"Boss Qin, it doesn't matter what this riding whip is woven from. What's important is who uses it. Boss Qin doesn't think that this riding whip originally belongs to me, right? Even if I have a small fortune, I still can't reach it. To such a level of luxury, this riding whip was a gift from Princess Haizhu of Southern Zhao Kingdom.
"I think Boss Qin must have heard that Princess Haizhu of Southern Zhao is very fond of Jingyuan's silk, cloud yarn and other fabrics, especially the green mist purple cloud yarn that I will buy and stock up next time. The princess’ favorite.”
Qin Miao was confused for a moment. This riding whip belonged to Princess Haizhu of Southern Zhao Kingdom?
The person in front of him actually has some dealings with the Nan Zhao royal family, which shows that his status is absolutely extraordinary, and the business he does is definitely not ordinary business. You must know that not everyone can do business with the royal family.
In just such a moment, Qin Miao's suspicion of Shao Xi was greatly reduced. I am afraid that no one except the Nanzhao royal family is qualified to own the riding whip just now. It is absolutely a royal item.
"I didn't expect that Mr. Shao is still connected with the royal family of Nan Zhao! I dare to ask if the young master is an official in the court? Otherwise, how can ordinary people talk to the royal family of Nan Zhao? Not only did he receive a gift from Princess Haizhu of Nan Zhao, but also It’s such a precious golden dragon and python leather riding whip! I dare to ask, what kind of business is Mr. Shao doing?”
Shao Xi was secretly glad that the girl had given him this riding whip, otherwise Qin Miao might not have believed what he said.
"How can I be an official in the court? I am just a traveling businessman. However, I was lucky enough to have some pieces of green mist and purple cloud yarn in my hand when I went to Nanzhao to do business. I happened to be spotted by Princess Haizhu who was out of the palace to play. Knowing that the other party was a princess, how could she dare to ask for money? So she gave the pieces of cloud yarn to Princess Haizhu. Unexpectedly, Princess Haizhu was more generous and gave her a riding whip in return.
"This is not the most important thing. What is important is that I learned from the princess that the Jingyuan Dynasty and the Southern Zhao Kingdom will formally establish diplomatic relations and open up border trade between the two countries. The princess also said that after the two countries establish trade, The first thing is to buy a large amount of cloud yarn produced in Jingyuan Jiangnan.
"All the women in Southern Zhao also love beauty. This cloud gauze will definitely sell well after it enters Nan Zhao. Therefore, I took advantage of the price reduction of Jiangnan Yun gauze to purchase and hoard in large quantities. I will wait until the borders between the two countries open up. This batch of cloud gauze will enter the market. The price for buying Nan Zhao is sky-high, isn’t it a huge profit?”
Qin Miao was also quite excited when she heard what Shao Xi said. Just as Shao Xi said, this Yunsha could indeed be sold at a good price if it entered Southern Zhao.
However, he had been in business for many years, so he naturally thought more. After thinking for a moment, he realized that things were not that simple.
"Although what Mr. Shao said is right, after the opening of border trade between the two countries, Yunsha can indeed be sold at a good price in Nan Zhao, but after the two countries established trade, we are not the only ones selling Yunsha. Then Jiangnan is the Yunsha If they also participate in the cloud yarn business in these two countries, wouldn’t they have a price advantage over us? At that time, our cloud yarn will still not be sold!"
Shao Xi had long expected that Qin Miao would have such concerns, so he explained: "If the information is not accurate, I would not dare to do this. The imperial court sent envoys to Nan Zhao in the first half of the year. Judging from the time, The envoy should be returning to Kyoto soon, so it should already be winter by the time the Holy Spirit issues an edict to open the border areas between the two countries for trade.
"At that time, the sericulture industry in Jiangnan was almost stagnant, and the yarn manufacturing in Jiangnan would also decrease accordingly. So we took advantage of this time to purchase and stockpile yarn in large quantities. When the trade between the two countries was opened, due to the previous Our large purchases will inevitably result in their low inventory. When the time comes, we will have a large amount of cloud yarn in our hands, and we will naturally have the final say on the price.
"When Jiangnan's yarn manufacturing picks up next year, the yarn in our hands has already been sold short, and we have already made all the money we should make."
Seeing Qin Miao nodding her head while listening, Shao Xi knew that the other party was getting closer and closer to his fishhook, so he hurriedly added: "Besides, I didn't say that we must wait until the two countries establish trade. Selling cloud yarn, I have some friendship with the governor of Nanshui County, and at this time, I have begun to conduct private transactions there secretly.
"This is the time when prices are at their best. Prices won't be as high as they are now in winter, so Boss Qin needs to get involved as early as possible. Opportunities to make money are not always available."
Shao Xi's words were perfect, because Shao Xi did the same thing.
As soon as he left Nanzhao, he asked Tao Qingyun to send people to Yujiang County to inform them to start hoarding cloud yarn. After the two countries established trade, he would make a lot of money from Jiangnan's cloud yarn.
At this time, he was just using this trick to seduce the Qin family. How could he easily find someone to cooperate with in a truly profitable business?
At this time, Qin Miao was already excited, but he was still very cautious and asked Shao Xi: "Although what Mr. Shao said makes sense, after all, you and I have met for the first time. How can we make me believe you?"
Shao Xi smiled slightly when he heard this.
"That's exactly what Boss Qin asked. This is about the second part of our business."
