Xie Si'an sat for a while and then left, and then Su Wan went to the warehouse to pick out fabrics so that Mrs. Zhang would be free to help make the cloak.
On the second day, Shangwen, the second son of the businessman, came to Shiqiao Village and Suwan to report the situation.
"We took our things all the way north, and when we reached a few towns in the north, we began to sell the things we brought over, and made a lot of money because of the price difference."
"We sell the goods we brought over there, and buy the goods there. Madam doesn't know, there are also many good things in the north. They are cheap there, but they are very expensive here."
"After clearing the goods, the things sold there almost filled the carriage, so we rushed back."
Su Wan looked at the account book that Shang Wen handed over. It stated what was bought here and at what price, and what price was sold there, and then he bought things there. A list, and a list of what the cavalry spent on the road.
The writing is very detailed.
"At what price are you going to sell it?"
"Returning to Madam, I discussed it with my elder brother. There are not many things brought back this year. Right now, they will be sold in the three cities of Guiyan City, Emperor City and Lanzhou City. First, send someone to inquire about the price, and then deliver the goods there. .¡±
"It's good to inquire clearly. After all, it is something that has been brought back with hard work. If it is sold cheaply, it will suffer."
People who can afford wool have some family background after all, so they don't have any worries. Those who can't afford it won't buy it, and those who can afford it are not too expensive.
"I was afraid that you would be overwhelmed, so I chose someone for you. A steward of my previous shop, surnamed Lu, named Lu Ling. You can hand over the affairs of the Imperial City to him in the future."
"Imperial City is a place to make money. I don't want to give up easily. You two must be the same. It's just that the relationship on the Imperial City is complicated. The two of you brothers don't understand the affairs there. So arrange a steward as a suitable."
Shang Wen nodded hurriedly after hearing the words: "Madam is thoughtful, my eldest brother and I are just two people, we really have no way to separate ourselves, and we don't understand the affairs of Eastern Zhao. If the imperial city can arrange a steward The best, this way, my eldest brother and I can do things more easily."
"If there is someone from the Imperial City to help, then my elder brother and I will stay in Guiyan City and go to Lanzhou City. When this matter is over, we need to find more people who can help."
Su Wan said: "Over there in Lanzhou City, you can ask Mr. Ji to go with you. Mr. Ji has been in Lanzhou City for many years, and he has a lot of connections. Things will be much easier with him."
"As for the matter of returning to Yancheng, you can also ask Mr. Xie's family. After that, you can decide what to do. I will only see the result then."
Shang Wen was taken aback when he heard it. After unloading the things last night, he was still discussing with his elder brother how to deliver the goods. After all, they are not familiar with the place where they live. I am afraid that some people will come out after making money. Take a share.
In the past, their brothers encountered such things a lot in the Western Wei Dynasty. Because they had no backing, they could only swallow their anger. In the end, they lost the family business they had run for several years, and the two brothers had to leave their hometowns.
Now that Su Wan has taken action, she has dealt with these matters cleanly. In Dongzhao, there are probably few people who dare not sell her face.
The Xie family is one of the four largest clans in Guiyan City. With the help of Mr. Xie to lead the way, whoever dares to come up to trouble them.
Come to Ji Yunpu again, after all, he used to be a member of the Ji family in Lanzhou City, even though he has left the Ji family now, but the old friends and contacts are still there, and with him leading the way, this business will not be offended and come to trouble.
In this way, they are only responsible for selling the goods, and they don't have to worry about other problems.
Shang Wen came back to his senses, and hurriedly said: "Madam, don't worry, the subordinates and elder brother will definitely handle these things beautifully."
"Okay." Su Wan nodded, "You two brothers also take advantage of this time to get to know more people by staying with Mr. Xie and Mr. Ji. You can't trouble them every time in the future. I will write two letters to you. Just take it with you."
"yes."
Su Wan turned around and went to the study to write two letters. One was to Mrs. Xie, explaining the current situation, and then asked Mr. Xie for help, and the other was to Ji Yunpu for the same reason.
Mr. Xie is okay, he is here in Guiyan City, just do a favor, but Ji Yunpu is going to follow Lanzhou City, it is hard work for him in such a cold day.
Su Wan thought about what kind of thank you gift would be suitable for these two families.
After she finished writing the letter, she wrote another copy of Lu Ling's address, dried it and put it in an envelope, then handed it along with the ledger to Shang Wen for him to take away.
Within two days, the merchant brothers began to act, and divided the goods into three batches, one batch was handed over to Daxia Xie to take people to the Imperial City, the other batch was kept in Guiyan City for sale, and the last batch was sold by Shang Wen and others. Ji Yunpu took them to Lanzhou City.
The weather is cold now. Although many people have prepared winter clothes early, they can afford to sell them with spare money at home. Good things are too rare. Besides, it¡¯s not too long before winter, so you can make them immediately after you buy them, and you can make them soon put on.
Whether it is the imperial city of a country, Lanzhou city of Lanzhou, or even Guiyan City, an old city that has been around for hundreds of years, the most indispensable thing is rich people, and the quality of wool and fur brought back by the horse team is also high. Not bad, so it sold out quickly.
It took three days for the Emperor City to be robbed, five days for the Lanzhou City, and ten days for Guiyan City.
Some of the remaining medicinal materials and some odds and ends were also sold quickly, but within half a month, all the things brought back were sold out.
?Because it was late November, and there wasn't much business going on this year, the two merchant brothers came over with the account book and reconciled it with Su Wan.
After finishing the calculation, Su Wan distributed his two brothers' share of the money to them, and also distributed a hard-earned money to those who went to follow the horse team this time. As for how the two merchant brothers and Lu Ling will distribute the imperial city She doesn't care about the share and how much she gave to Daxia Xie.
Su Guan handed over the management to the merchants and shared three-tenths of their profits. Naturally, she would not share any more. Although she helped find Lu Ling, it is a fact that the two brothers of the merchants are not busy. The share will naturally be deducted from them.
However, the deduction is only some share from the imperial city. Even if the two brothers of the merchants in each place arrange a big steward, even if they give them half or 10%, the money that the merchant brothers get is also a lot of money. .
When the business gets bigger in the future, the money you get will be even more immeasurable. (Remember the site URL: www.hlnovel.com
