Chapter 27 Pricing
In the blink of an eye, a few days passed, and Haoyue Textile Factory had been established for half a month.
At this time, Yu Hao was doing research in the room of the textile factory, and Lu Xiaoxiao rushed in in a hurry.
"Master, the goods from our factory have come out. Miss Li asked you to come over quickly!"
"real?"
Yu Hao threw away the design drawing in his hand and rushed out of the room.
At this time, in the open space of the textile factory, Han Bing was instructing the brothers in the escort department to load boxes one by one onto the carriage.
Li Shihan stood aside, with the joy of the harvest on her face.
In the past half month, she, like Yu Hao, had lived and ate in the textile factory. From teaching the workers how to use the textile machine to the production of the first batch of goods, she had put in a lot of effort.
Seeing Yu Hao, Li Shihan hurriedly came up to him: "My lord, according to your request, this first batch of goods, including linen, cotton and silk, totals 60,000 pieces, of which linen is the largest, with a total of 30,000 pieces."
"so much?"
Seven hundred and fifty textile machines worked day and night, producing 60,000 pieces of cloth in just fifteen days, which far exceeded everyone's imagination.
And this is when the workers have just gotten started. If they are given a period of familiarity, the output will even double.
"Sir, the cost of the cloth produced by our textile factory is less than half of that of other cloths. Should the price be determined according to the market price?"
After all, the textile factory belongs to Yu Hao, and Li Shihan only holds 30% of the shares. Yu Hao still needs to decide the pricing.
"What is the price of cloth on the market now? What is the cost?"
The maid Chunlan immediately took out a bamboo slip and said: "Back to my young master, the price of cloth in Daqian is not much different now. Coarse cloth is three hundred cents per piece, linen is six hundred cents per piece, and cotton cloth is one tael of silver per piece.
A piece of silk and satin costs thirty taels of silver per piece, and the cost of all kinds of cloth is about 70%."
Yu Hao nodded. The reason why Daqian cloth is so expensive is because of the high cost, especially the labor cost.
This is the advantage of the new textile machine, which greatly saves labor costs with extremely high working efficiency.
Even though Yu Hao gives workers such high treatment, the cost is still less than half of that of other workshops.
"Let's see, linen and cotton are sold at 70% of the market price, and silk and satin are sold at the market price. The quality of the silk and satin produced by our factory is better, and we don't have to worry about not being able to sell it at the market price." Yu Hao thought for a while.
said.
As for coarse cloth, textile factories don't produce it at all.
Even Hao Hao found it uncomfortable to use when wiping his buttocks. How could it be made into clothes and worn on the body?
Yu Hao wanted the people to be able to afford clothes, not just linen clothes, but linen and even cotton clothes. This was Yu Hao's original intention.
So from the beginning, Yu Hao did not let the textile factory produce coarse cloth.
After listening to Yu Hao's words, Li Shihan frowned slightly. She knew that Yu Hao wanted to make clothes affordable for the people, and she was already prepared that Yu Hao would keep the price very low.
Although the current price is lower than the market price, it is still much higher than Li Shihan expected, and many people still cannot afford it.
Although he could earn more money this way, Li Shihan always felt a little uncomfortable.
When she agreed to start a business partnership with Yu Hao, in addition to wanting to make a comeback, she was more moved by Yu Hao's kindness in caring about the world.
Has Yu Hao forgotten the original intention of building the factory?
Yu Hao seemed to have seen what Li Shihan was thinking, and did not explain too much. Instead, he said: "The textile factory has just started and needs funds to develop. If you want to let the people wear cheap clothes, it will not happen overnight. It needs to be considered over the long term.
."
How could Yu Hao forget the original intention of building the factory?
Although he said that, Yu Hao already had a perfect plan in mind, but he couldn't say it out yet. If it were leaked, the plan would be ruined.
Li Shihan nodded deeply and thought no more.
"Shihan, I'll leave the sales to you. Prepare two boxes of fine silk and satin for me. I want to go to the palace."
"It has been prepared for you a long time ago." Li Shihan smiled slightly and pointed to the carriage next to him.
…
Imperial Palace, Yangxin Hall.
Ever since the news spread that Li Mingyang had a small notebook with the names of corrupt officials in his hand, all the dignitaries in Wudu City were so frightened that they couldn't sleep at night.
In order to show the authenticity of the "little book", Li Mingyang personally led a team to search the homes of two corrupt officials.
In addition, the Imperial Guards were out of the city for training, and the Jianguo Temple took over the city defense. The people of the Jianguo Temple wandered around the streets all day long, which put all the unclean officials in danger.
The Jianguo Temple always handles cases in a flawless manner, and no one dares to say that his or her name is not written in that little notebook.
For a time, those officials with ulterior motives donated money to the treasury for various reasons, fearing that the emperor would settle accounts with them.
There are even rumors that as long as you pay more money like the Minister of Household Affairs, the emperor will not ask any questions.
This resulted in all these officials spending a lot of money, with one donation amounting to tens of thousands of taels of silver.
Zhu Song almost smiled crookedly. Apart from him, only Li Mingyang and Yu Hao knew what the "little book" was about.
Originally, I just wanted to squeeze out the cost of purchasing the divine arm crossbow from corrupt officials, but I didn't expect that it would cause such a big chain reaction.
Now the treasury has not only given back a wave of blood, but also allowed all these corrupt officials to come out on their own.
The most ridiculous thing is that these corrupt officials were afraid that the emperor would not know that they had donated money. When donating money, they repeatedly asked the Minister of Revenue to submit their names to the emperor.
After being frightened once, the Secretary of the Ministry of Revenue became a lot more honest. He actually made the account books public and reported the names of all corrupt officials to Zhu Song.
"These bastards, thanks to my trust in them, none of them are clean." Zhu Song looked at the list handed over by the Secretary of the Ministry of Revenue, and his teeth almost broke.
At this moment, Feng Yulou suddenly walked in and said: "Your Majesty, the prince-in-law is here, and he has brought many boxes, saying they are gifts for you."
"Tell him to go back, my father doesn't want to see him!" At this moment, Princess Jianyang suddenly said.
She felt dizzy when she heard Yu Hao's name. After a few days of clean life, this annoying guy came back again. It's really annoying!
"Jianyang! Don't be rude! That is your future husband-in-law, the only consort in this dynasty! Let him in quickly!"
Queen Hu glared at Princess Jianyang fiercely. She was wearing a complete tiger skin, and even if it was summer, she couldn't bear to take it off.
Zhu Song glanced at Queen Hu strangely. Didn't she ask him to terminate the engagement between Yu Hao and Jianyang a few days ago? Why did she admit Yu Hao's identity as the consort today?
A woman’s thoughts are indeed unpredictable!
