Chapter 196 Follow the trend

There is no blind person in the world. As long as the first person makes money, there will naturally be someone following the trend. Although it has only been opened for two months, the profits obtained by Hongfu Bu Factory have not been hidden from others. At least not from Ni Mingde.

The Ni family was not a native of the capital, but a military household. They had been doing various business for many years. When the Hongfu Bu Factory started construction, he saw the profits. However, he could not figure out the tricks at that time, but soon he figured out the tricks.

"The bidder went to Jiangnan to buy a 2-qian silver for silver, and transported it to Zhangjiawan and offered it to the cloth merchants for three-qian and two. When it comes to the hands of the people, it is four cents. If you want to set up a factory in Lugou, how much profit will this cloth be!"

Double the profit!

Squinted his eyes, Ni Mingde asked again.

"Yezhu, have you arrived at the iron factory?"

When Ni Mingde went to the iron factory, he not only went to negotiate to buy a fabric loom, but also needed the iron factory to help him build a new fabric factory.

He has seen that the houses in those factories are different from ordinary houses, and they may not be able to play around without them.

"The output is twice as large as Hongfu?"

Xu Siyuan looked at the outsider in front of him in surprise.

"Are you sure? Hongfu has 1,000 looms."

Look at the fact that there are not many looms, but they are all hydroloons, twice as fast as those in Jiangnan.

"That's right!"

Ni Mingde nodded and said.

"Since you want to start a factory, it's better to be bigger. For the factory, Ni is an amateur. He has never been in contact with the weaving industry in the past. But this may be a good thing. As long as the scale is large and the production of more cloths will be more difficult, the business will naturally be easier. However, it's still a matter of trouble for Mr. Xu. After all, from the loom to the factory, we have to help the iron factory. In addition, even the future yarn is required to be provided by your boss, and it's easy to say..."

While speaking, Ni Mingde took out a silver note from his arms - the silver note from Yulong Bank.

"This is Yulong Bank's banknotes, a total of 100,000 taels."

Before coming, he had already found out that Yulong Bank's owner is the owner of Lugou Iron Factory and also the owner of the sponge mill, so he exchanged for such a huge silver note.

It's so generous to take action!

Even if I am used to seeing silver, it is 100,000 taels!

This is indeed the biggest business that the iron factory has already built, and even Qi Jiguang's 20,000 flintlocks...the "thunder gun" cannot be compared with it.

"Young Master, will we help him?"

Xu Siyuan asked cautiously.

"Why don't you help? We are opening our doors to do business, and we can't refuse any business."

"But the Liu family..."

"Liu family?"

His brow jumped slightly, and he pondered for a moment, Shi Yiwen said.

"I will tell him personally that the iron factory is open to business, and naturally it will not refuse business. Moreover, the cotton cloth market in the north is very large, and even 100 Hongfu can't satisfy it. He will definitely understand it."

If it weren't for Liu Baitao's first to come to him, Shi Yiwen wouldn't have explained anything at all. After all, what he needed was a huge industrial group, not a few households. Only when more and more people entered this industry could he help destroy the Jiangnan Gentleman Group and win this "financial war".

"Also, you can post a few advertisements in the Morning Post to promote looms, and report more about the situation of Hongfu cloth factory, so that more people will come in. Our yarn mills will also expand and increase production capacity."

After expressing his thoughts one by one, Shi Yiwen asked with a smile when he looked at Xu Siyuan who was thinking.

"Why, is there anything else I can't figure it out?"

"Young Master, I have always been curious. Weaving has obvious profits. Why don't we do it ourselves, but let outsiders do it?"

"outsider?"

Shi Yiwen was stunned for a moment and then explained.

"Siyuan, why do you think Nanbu is obviously expensive, but the trademarks still purchase Nanbu instead of Hongfubu?"

From Liu Yiming, Shi Yiwen already knew the problem facing Xin Hongfu - the label dealers do not buy Hongfubu. All of those label dealers specializing in the transportation and sales of cotton cloth, and specializing in purchasing Jiangnan cloth to sell to Junzhen.

"Well, young master, after you told me that day, when you sent me a "thunder gun" to Jizhen, I asked in detail that the so-called "brand dealer" was on the surface "business", but in fact, they were slaves of Jizhen generals. They were operating transactions for Jizhen generals, and those generals had good friends with officials in Beijing, as for those cloth merchants..."

Suddenly, Xu Siyuan stopped talking, and he looked at Shi Yiwen and said.

"Young Master, I understand."

"Jiangnan grain cloth is not only relying on the market, but also non-economic factors such as politics. The cloth merchants in Jiangnan and the military officials in Jiangnan are themselves one. They are integrated through various complex relationships. If the trademark trader gives up the southern cloth and get the northern cloth, it will definitely cause dissatisfaction among some officials in the capital. Therefore, it is impossible for them to buy the northern cloth, even if the northern cloth is cheaper!"

After pursing his lips, Shi Yiwen glanced out the window.

"I can indeed spin and weave my own yarn and cloth, and I can make all the profits and take everything alone, but do you believe it or not, when I expand the weaving factory to have tens of thousands of looms and can produce tens of millions of cloth a year, before the Jiangnan scholars attack me, I guess the local scholars in the Northern Zhili will attack me. Eating alone will not be fat... It is not just hard to fat, it may be fat!"

"So, the young master means to distribute the weaving factory to the local scholars, we control the yarn, and then use the cloth machine, use the yarn, and form them together, and use their hands to fight against the cloth merchants in the south?"

"threaten!"

Shi Yiwen said seriously with his lips pursed.

"Now, we are not a threat to Jiangnan. After all, the north needs more than tens of millions of cloth every year. Even if we weave tens of millions of pieces, it will not have much impact. Therefore, we must take advantage of this time to expand the power of the group as much as possible. Only the group can fight against the group. A person... is weak and can hardly whistle alone."

If I were alone, I would probably not even know how to die in the end!

The experience of traveling to the doctor in the martial arts world taught Shi Yiwen a lot of things, from making friends with locals to not being able to eat alone, and all of them are now used in business, and the same is true.

"Oh, by the way, tell Ni Mingde that we can only give him so many one thousand looms. After all, there will be more people coming in to set up factories next, but..."

After a pause in his speech, Shi Yiwen realized another problem.
