The charming legitimate daughter is reborn, addicted to the abstinent prince's pampering

One night passed, and on the next day people found that all the cloth shops in Yong'an City were closed.

The bosses of each cloth shop put their big carts into small carts, pulled up their own cloth and followed the carriage of Zhao's cloth shop closely, as if they were in a big fight, as if they could make a sure profit by following Zhao Bingcheng's pace.

The group of people hurried on without stopping, and finally arrived at the next capital before dawn.

Everyone had not slept all night, they were tired and their horses were exhausted, and they really had no strength to continue on their way.

Zhao Bingcheng felt that it was almost the same. It was time to stop and rest and carry out his plan from this capital.

"Everyone must be very confused as to why I am on my way in such a hurry. It is not convenient for me to reveal the real situation to you. We are all businessmen. When doing business, we must first pay attention to integrity and secondly, pay attention to keeping things secret. Once a good thing like making money is exposed, it must be revealed. It will attract more competitors, and the size of the pie is fixed. If there are more people competing for it, the portion each person will receive will become smaller."

The owners of the cloth shop are all smart people, so they naturally understand this truth.

"Shopkeeper Zhao has great foresight. We will leave Yong'an with you just because we trust you. As long as we can make money, we can do whatever we want."

"We can ask no questions. I believe that as a person like Shopkeeper Zhao, he can't sell out the hundred or so of us."

"Yes, we all listen to Shopkeeper Zhao."

Zhao Bingcheng is very satisfied with this.

"In that case, let's find an inn to rest first, and then continue on our way after we regain our strength."

"Huh? Is that all?"

Zhao Bingcheng is inscrutable:

"Of course not, we have to do something very important."

"What's the matter?" everyone asked in unison.

"Collect the ducks and geese!"

Everyone had question marks on their faces, thinking they had heard wrong.

duck?Goose?

They should be in the fabric business instead of switching to poultry business, right?

Everyone was dumbfounded.

Even more dumbfounding is yet to come.

Zhao Bingcheng picked out eight clever and smooth-talking people, and asked each of them to take charge of one direction, namely east, south, west, north, southeast, southwest, northeast, and northwest, and would "acquire unlimited amounts of ducks and geese." The news spread.

Each duck costs twenty cents. If the duck is killed, skinned and cleaned, the purchase price of duck meat and duck down will directly double to forty cents.

The same reason.

Each goose costs [-] cents. If the goose is killed and cleaned, the purchase price of goose meat and goose down is [-] cents.

The price was so ridiculously high that the cloth shop owners and all the clerks were shocked.

In Helian Kingdom, one tael of silver is equal to one thousand penny, which can buy two hundred buckets of rice, which is two thousand kilograms of rice, which is equivalent to five penny per bucket of rice.

Following Zhao Bing's move, the price of an untreated live duck can be purchased for four buckets of rice, which is [-] kilograms, while the price of ducks and duck down that have been treated according to his requirements is equivalent to eight buckets of rice, which is [-] kilograms.

Goose is even more exaggerated. The processed goose and goose down are worth one hundred kilograms of rice.

Isn't this...isn't this crazy?

If a family of four saves some food, one hundred kilograms of rice can last for more than two months. At this time, ordinary people mainly eat cereals. Except for officials and officials, ordinary people do not eat rice every day, so this One hundred kilograms of rice is not too much to eat for a year and a half.

"Well, Shopkeeper Zhao, did you say something wrong?"

Zhao Bingcheng was very firm: "I was right. A live duck costs [-] cents, and a goose costs [-] cents. If the seller is willing to deal with it cleanly, the price will be doubled."

The reason why Zhao Bingcheng did this was because there was no other way.

They were pressed for time, and the amount of down required for [-] winter coats was not something that [-] ducks and geese could handle.

In modern times, it takes at least thirteen ducks to make a 120g down jacket.

Border soldiers cannot only wear a down jacket, but also need down pants underneath.

The border is cold, and the down content of clothes must be much higher than 120g. If each soldier needs 300 ducks and geese for winter clothes, [-] soldiers will need [-] million ducks and geese.

If Zhao Bingcheng's people were required to slaughter such a huge quantity to get the velvet, they would be too exhausted to finish it.

If you have enough money, there will be people who are not afraid of trouble.

Once the good news about making money spreads in the city, people will flock to it. They only need to wait at the inn for others to deliver duck meat and goose down to them.

This way you won’t waste your rest time, and you won’t have to worry about not getting the down you want.

As for the duck and goose meat, Zhao Bingcheng planned to send it to the border to reward the soldiers. It was winter anyway, so there was no need to worry about the meat going bad.

Zhao Bingcheng's decision shocked Bu Xingdong's family.

They really believed in Zhao Bingcheng, and they really didn't intend to get to the bottom of it, but Zhao Bingcheng's sudden decision to acquire poultry was still confusing.

"Shopkeeper Zhao, are you sure you want to do this?"

"I'm sure! As long as this is done, all of us here will be respected by the world."

Respect is what businessmen dream of but dare not hope for.

Scholars, farmers, and merchants were at the bottom of society.

When a person has money and no worries about food and clothing, he will have spiritual needs. Compared with making money, what they need now is to be recognized by others.

Zhao Chengcheng throws out the spiritual need "dignity" as bait, seizes their pain points, and stimulates their curiosity. Driven by curiosity, they will try to find the answer, and they will naturally cooperate willingly in the process of finding the answer. He acts.

Zhao Bingcheng used this heart-grabbing technique at a critical moment. This is called taking advantage of the situation and using it correctly.

The eight workers followed Zhao Chengcheng's instructions to spread the news, while Zhao Chengcheng and others stayed at the inn peacefully.

This capital is five hundred miles away from Yong'an City. It was noon when Zhao Bingcheng left Yong'an City. He hurried on the road just to get as far away from Yong'an City as possible.

The sky is high and the emperor is far away, Concubine Wen's hand cannot reach this long.

It doesn't matter even if Concubine Wen gets the news, he will only stay for one day and will go to the next city after one day. When Concubine Wen realizes that he has been preparing to collect winter clothes, he is almost at the border.

Zhao Chengcheng had everything planned and went to sleep peacefully to recharge his batteries.

And the fact that he acquired ducks and geese was like having wings, and it spread throughout the city in less than half a day.

It is undeniable that the appeal of money is powerful.

People who have ducks and geese are going crazy with joy. The city instantly becomes lively, and a craze of "men, women, old and young come together to gather duck feathers in every household" begins.

People who don’t have ducks or geese stamp their feet anxiously.

But there are always more solutions than difficulties. Some people smell a business opportunity and immediately set off to rush to a nearby city.

The live ducks were purchased for fifteen cents each and the processed ducks were thirty cents each, and then sold to Zhao Bingcheng, which was a proper middleman transfer for the price difference.

This "gathering of duck (goose) feathers" activity continues from noon until dark.

The ducks and geese were plucked until every feather was left, and their internal organs were treated extremely cleanly.

Looking at the down, sacks and sacks are almost piled up.
