Chapter 157 Cloth prices plummeted, and Wang Wenyan lost so much that his mother exploded!

This year, Zhu You's success in school cannot be said to be a source of wealth, but it can also be said that he only makes money but does not make money.

The people had no land, so he divided his imperial estate.

The people did not have the tools to plow the fields, so they took out the money from their own funds.

The people raised chickens, ducks and cattle, but Zhu Youxiao still had to pay for it from his own funds.

The common people had no one to produce textile looms and looms, so Zhu Youxiao had to invest money in them.

There is also the production and design of flintlock muskets. Although Zhang Haogu mainly pays for it from the Ministry of Household Affairs, sometimes Zhu Youxiao still needs to pay for it.

Anyway, throughout this year, Zhu Youxiao didn't see any money back.

Now Zhu Youxiao's internal money is really a cockroach that will be silent and a mouse that will shed tears.

Today, Zhu Youxiao finally saw the money coming back.

A net income of 20,000 yuan a month would be 240,000 yuan a year.

Seventy percent of this money belongs to Zhu Youxiao, and the remaining 30% belongs to Zhang Haogu.

After a rough calculation, I assume that I can share 168,000.

Zhu Youxiao was showing off his math skills. He was still in the capital. What if he opened a branch in Jinmen? He opened a branch in Shandong and Zhejiang.

As long as there are ten stores, it will be 1.68 million taels per year.

Based on a rough calculation, it seems that the money is much faster than that of my own imperial village.

"This good Longlou still needs to be changed!"

Zhang Haogu on the side said: "We can expand the shopping area for women, add a children's clothing area, and open a separate room for women to make facial masks. It must be clean and hygienic!"

"What is a facial mask?" Zhu Youxiao asked curiously.

Zhang Haogu casually opened a small box and said with a smile: "Your Majesty, this is a gouache prepared by searching through ancient books, using honey, plant flowers, eggs, semolina, and coarse beans.

Mix it and make it into a slurry. Apply it on your face to keep it moisturized and treat some skin diseases!"

"Now that we are here, we have to let the family members of these dog officials spend more money, make a show of face, and charge them two taels of silver. This is not too much!"

Zhu Youxiao nodded: "It's not too much!"

Now that his internal funds are empty, Zhu Youxiao is also a little anxious. In the past, his internal funds were relatively wealthy, but this year's expenses are really too large.

When your money is empty, you really have no sense of security at all.

Now that he sees this way to make money, Zhu Youxiao really wished he could make more money at that time.

Spending too much money makes me, the emperor, feel distressed.

Eunuch Wei was right. The Dog Emperor's land was divided. Maybe when it was first divided, he was still very excited and felt that he was a holy master and a benevolent king. But when he turned around and ran out of money, he would have to talk about Zhang Haogu.

If the dog emperor is not allowed to earn more, there will still be discord in the future.

"Boss Zhu, brother, the Haolong Tower you see is actually only part of it!"

Zhang Haolong smiled and said: "We have opened a few new stores in Fangshi. Boss Zhu, brother, do you want to go and take a look?"

"Oh?" Zhu Youxiao suddenly became interested: "How many shops have been opened in Fangshi?"

"Yes, Haolonglou's clothes, rouge and gouache are mainly sold to the rich and powerful, but the cloth and wool from this market are sold directly to the common people!"

Zhang Haolong said with a smile: "Ordinary people also need to keep out the cold, but these things are not very suitable to be placed in this Haolong Tower, so these shops are placed in Fangshi!"

The same thing is sold at two completely different prices.

Zhu Youxiao nodded: "Okay, let's go and have a look!"

…

…

"Wang Gong, Wang Gong, something bad has happened. The price of cloth has dropped!"

Just when Zhu Youxiao was heading to Fangshi, in a mansion, a servant also came to Wang Wenyan in panic.

Wang Wenyan frowned: "Has the price of cloth dropped?"

"Wang Gong, look!"

The servant quickly took out a piece of fabric and placed it in front of Wang Wenyan: "This is the fabric I just purchased from Ruyifang!"

Wang Wenyan was slightly startled. He took the cloth and took a look at it. He couldn't help but be slightly startled.

"Good cloth!"

The color of this cloth is very bright.

Wang Wenyan has been doing a lot of fabric business in recent years. Jiangnan, which is the headquarters of the Donglin Party, has always been in the fabric business.

Wang Wenyan could tell the quality of the cloth at a glance.

This fabric is of the highest quality!

Obviously, this is not an ordinary homespun cloth, at least it is a cloth with a certain level of weaving. By the late Ming Dynasty, the germination of capitalism had already appeared.

This Jiangnan fabric is produced with enough looms.

It is already a small-scale industrialization.

Silk and fabrics are all from the north.

In this northern business model, Dadi purchases all kinds of homespun cloth from everywhere and then sends it to the capital for sale.

In the final analysis, it is a small-scale peasant economy, but it is different in Jiangnan. It has already formed a scale and industry, and it is completely inferior to the north.

Wang Wenyan purchased a large amount of fabric from Jiangnan this time because he had a premonition that there would be a cold winter this year. If the fabric price increased, he would definitely make a lot of money.

Some time ago, Wang Wenyan used many methods. First, he released a large amount of cloth that was not cheap, which caused an impact on the cloth in the capital. The quality and price were not as good as mine. Naturally, no one cared about the northern cloth and could not sell it.

One round of shock caused the price of fabrics in the north to plummet.

After that, Wang Wenyan quickly purchased a large amount of northern fabrics at low prices, and then quickly raised the prices.

In the past, Wang Wenyan would have disdained to use this method. The price of southern cloth is already high, and it can be sold at a high price, which is a high profit. However, this year is a shock. Winter is coming soon. You can still endure the severe cold now.

, but, will you try it after a while?

The cold is really unbearable. No matter how expensive the price is, you have to buy it.

What happened to homespun cloth? What happened to the poor quality? If you don’t want to freeze to death, you have to buy it.

The profit from this transaction is at least one million or more.

Even if he gives some of it to the people in the dynasty, he can still make a lot of money.

And now, an unexpected opponent appears.

Reaching out to touch it, the expression on Wang Wenyan's face became more solemn. The cloth was woven extremely densely, and its weaving technology was even better than that of the south.

After all, the looms in the South have not been improved. There will always be flaws when weaving. No matter how skilled the weaving machine is, it will still be rough. It may look silky smooth to a layman, but to a true expert

In my eyes, there is still a problem.

But now, Wang Wenyan found that he couldn't find any problems.

In the past, it was the cloth from the South that beat the cloth from the North, because the looms in the South were more sophisticated than those in the North, and because the South had already formed an industrial chain.

The quality is good and the price is low, which naturally has an impact on the fabrics from the north. In the past, fabrics from the south were used to beat the fabrics from the north.

But now...

Wang Wenyan suddenly discovered that the fabrics in the south were not as good as those in the north?

Looking up, Wang Wenyan looked at the servant: "How much does this cloth cost?"'

"Two denarii a piece of silver."

"What?" Wang Wenyan jumped up on the spot and stared at the servant: "What did you say, how much did it cost?"
