Hearing this, Yuan Wai Li and Gao Yuan Wai both trembled and looked at Gu Jun, full of surprise and uncertainty.
Today is different from the past. In Daqian, people are still very superstitious.
You can't say you don't believe in things like oaths, but you can at least be in awe of them.
What's more, what Gu Jun swore was a poisonous oath within a poisonous oath!
"Brother Gu, we believe it! Of course we believe you as a person. There is no need to swear such poisonous oaths." Officer Li saw that the atmosphere was not right and quickly smoothed things over.
"Lao Gao, what do you say now?"
Gao Yuanwai sighed and said: "I believe in your determination, Lao Gu, but after all, this is a major matter related to your wealth and life, so... let's wait until Lao Qian comes, and then we'll see."
When Gu Jun heard this, he frowned at first.
Later, I felt that what the other party said was not unreasonable, not to mention that Lao Qian was the number one cloth merchant in Jiangnan County. If Lao Qian was not convinced, the three of them would not be able to make any trouble, so they nodded and said: " Where is the old money? Why hasn’t it come yet?”
"That's the point of the appointment. Lao Qian has always been punctual, and there hasn't been anything important lately, so there's no reason to be late." Mr. Li muttered.
Gu Jun also began to close his eyes and meditate. Suddenly, a flash of lightning flashed through his mind, making him stand up with a look of surprise and uncertainty on his face.
"Lao Gu, what's wrong?"
"Do you think Feihong's people have already looked for old money? That's why he didn't come?" Gu Jun's voice was low and his tone was gloomy.
As soon as these words were said, Yuan Wai Li and Gao Yuan Wai could not sit still. They stood up one after another and said, "We'd better go to Qian's Mansion now and ask Lao Qian for a clear explanation."
"If it were not for Qian's Buhang to play the leading role, how would we be able to resist Feihong at all? It would be better to pack things up earlier and go our separate ways."
When Gu Jun heard this, his expression was gloomy, but he had to admit that what Li Yuanwai said was reasonable, so he could only sigh.
However, just as the three of them pushed open the box door and were about to leave, they saw a person coming from a distance. It was the owner of Qian's cloth shop - Qian Tong!
"Old Qian, why did you come here?"
"Something happened and I was delayed."
When everyone heard this, their hearts trembled.
For the cloth industry, the Spring Festival is the most popular peak season.
After the Spring Festival, business will be much duller.
This is the situation in every household now, where leisure is tight.
So what can happen to delay his old money? Could it be that Lao Gu was really right?
"Old Qian, we have known each other for so many years, and you have always been regarded as the leader in the circle."
"But today, I'm going to say something you don't want to hear."
"When Feihong was still collecting shareholders, you led everyone to fight against Shen Jibuhang. Now, Shenjibuhang has transformed into Feihong. Everyone was almost forced to have no food to eat, and they never complained. I’ll give you a short sentence.”
"You can't abandon your brothers and vote for Feihong alone."
"If you do something like this, you will be stabbed in the spine."
Hearing this, Qian Tong didn't know what they were thinking, so he smiled and said: "Where are you thinking? The person named Shen and I are incompatible with each other. Even if he wants to go to Feihong, Gu Shijun has to take him first Fire him, otherwise he will be without me, and I will be without him."
"There's something really wrong with being late this time."
"Besides, it's a good thing!" Qian Tong hesitated and did not continue.
Who would have thought that this would make Mr. Li very anxious.
"When did this happen? If you have any news, tell it immediately. Don't hide it. Otherwise, when Feihong robs all our business, it will be too late to tell you."
Hearing this, Qian Tong raised the corner of his mouth and said with a smile: "I have a big order. If it is completed, the profit will be as little as hundreds of thousands of taels, and as much as hundreds of thousands of taels."
boom!
As soon as these words came out, the room fell into silence for an instant.
The drop of a needle could be heard, and the only sound left was the heavy breathing of a few members.
"Old Qian, you can't joke about this. Where did you get such a big order?" Li said tremblingly.
"Even if we are desperate again, we cannot do illegal activities. Otherwise, if we are caught, we will be nailed to the pillar of shame and reviled by the neighbors." The senior official who had been silent could not help frowning at this time.
Only Gu Jun said in disbelief with a little excitement: "Profits of hundreds of thousands taels... If this business is really successful, there will be no need to fear Feihong anymore."
Obviously, these words deeply touched the heartstrings of the three members. But the initiator was still drinking tea leisurely.
"Old Qian! When can we not drink this tea? You should tell us about the order." Li Yuanwai urged.
Hearing this, Qian Tong stopped holding the teacup, but put down the teacup, and said seriously: "You all know that one month ago, King Zhenbei just captured the three northern counties."
"But what does that have to do with us?"
"Stupid, where are the three counties of Yayu, Tianshui and Linyi that are not covered with ice and snow? In addition, when the Beiyan people retreated, they either burned their clothes or took them away. So what the three northern counties now lack is large quantities of cloth! "
"Quantity, the more the better!"
Hearing this, the eyes of the three members immediately lit up.
We are all old foxes who have been in the business world for several years, so when we heard this, we immediately sensed the business opportunities.
This can be earned! And it’s still a huge profit!
"Where did you get this news?" However, Gu Jun did not choose to believe it for the first time, but questioned it.
"Yes, Lao Gu's Xingwen is now employed in the three northern counties. If there is news, Lao Gu cannot possibly not know about it."
"I can even get Liuyun Satin, so I naturally have my information channels."
"As long as you know that this news is absolutely true, it is enough that it cannot be false at all!"
"Then let's go back and start work now? Try to accumulate as much cloth as possible and sell it all from your channel then?" Gao Yuanwai took the initiative, obviously thinking about it.
In other words, in the face of such an opportunity to turn defeat into victory, who outside the three major members can not be tempted?
But when Qian Tong heard this, he shook his head and said, "I can only get the news in advance, but I can't block the news."
"After some time, Feihong will receive news sooner or later."
"When the time comes, with our size and shipments, how can we compete with others?"
As soon as these words came out, it was like pouring cold water on the three people who were thinking fiercely.
"Then what should we do? Is it possible that we really can't get through Feihong's difficulty?"
"What a disaster! Feihong is really a disaster for merchants like us!"
Yuan Li and Yuan Gao both wailed in pain, but Gu Jun's eyes narrowed slightly and his brain was working rapidly.
Suddenly, a bolt of lightning flashed through my mind!
He straightened up suddenly, looked at Qian Tong, and said, "You mean, before the news reaches Huainan, we can do something to take advantage of it?"
When Qian Tong heard this, he laughed and said, "Lao Gu still understands me!"
"The three northern counties are a land of bitter cold. They don't have much requirements for the comfort of their clothes and cloth, as long as they can keep them warm."
"So Feihong's silks look gorgeous, but are actually not popular."
"As long as we are stronger than Feihong in terms of quantity, the overall situation will be decided!"
"As far as I know, whether it's Huainan or Jiangnan, there are quite a few cloth merchants who are forced to make a living by Feihong, right?"
"Let's unite all these people, sign a deed, and form an alliance."
"When the time comes, are you afraid that you won't be able to match Feihong in terms of size?"
