My Brother-in-law is the Prince Chapter 49

Chapter 49 Get Rich

Zhang Fu said: "Brother, don't worry, we pushed the gunpowder on Guo Degan."

Zhang Anshi couldn't help raising his thumb: "The third brother is really smart."

Turning his gaze, he saw Qiu Fu holding booger in his nose, which seemed a bit disrespectful to his elder brother.

Zhang Anshi said: "Fourth brother, be civilized."

Zhu Yong said: "Brother, don't pay attention to him, he is like this, he has been playing for a long time."

"Oh." Zhang Anshi nodded: "Have your family members come? Did you tell you when to ask His Majesty to let you out?"

Both Zhang Fu and Zhu Yong became depressed: "Since we entered the prison, no one at home has come to visit us, only the elder brother has come."

Zhang Anshi comforted them and said: "Just treat them as ignorant, and don't take it to heart."

Zhang Fu muttered: "Only the eldest brother is the best to us, but... the eldest brother... At that time, where did you go? You said you had breakfast, but you never saw anyone."

Zhang Anshi sighed: "Hey, so I made the right move at the beginning. You see, you are the three evildoers in the capital, and the eldest brother, with a little more brains, is responsible for reasoning with people and making peace with others. You are Liu Guan Zhang, the eldest brother is Zhuge Liang, understand?"

Liu Guanzhang must belong to Liu Guanzhang, but this Liu is definitely not Liu Bei, most likely Liu Chan. Of course, don't care about these details.

Zhang Anshi patiently explained: "Look at the present, the benefits are not revealed? If we are all in prison, who will take care of us in the future? Now the elder brother is outside, although you are suffering inside, there will always be elder brother Come to visit, I won't teach you to suffer.”

Zhu Yong patted his thigh: "That's right, why didn't I expect that elder brother is really clever, predicting things like a god, I didn't expect that elder brother has all the plans, he has already thought about it."

Zhang Fu tilted his head, and thought it made sense.

Zhang Anshi said again: "Eggs can't be put in the same basket. You have one basket, and the elder brother has one basket. As long as the elder brother is still there, we will be famous as the three fierce men in the capital."

As he spoke, Zhang Anshi took out the food in the food box and gave them to eat.

Then he sighed and said: "Thinking of my brothers suffering here, I can't eat well and can't sleep well. Take care of your health. After three or five years, your majesty's anger will disappear. Big brother will find a way for you and rescue you." .Ten thousand steps back, wait for my brother-in-law..."

Zhang Anshi's voice became lower and lower: "Wait for my brother-in-law to inherit the throne...Are you afraid that you won't be able to come out? This is just a matter of one sentence. With the elder brother here, I don't teach you to suffer."

"Brother...you take care of your own affairs, we won't suffer much here, so you can rest assured."

Zhang Anshi nodded, these brothers are real people, able to get along.

But his heart was heavy. After all, he screwed up this time. How could he know that "one sulfur, two nitrates, three charcoals, plus a little sugar, Big Ivan" was actually true.

The only good thing is that the emperor just put them in prison. After they are all heroes, their lives should not be in danger. There will always be a way to get them out earlier.

But right now, it's not the time to grieve.

He wants to turn grief into strength, inherit the legacy of his brothers... No, he wants to inherit their spirit of daring to fight and fight hard, and he wants to do a good job of the brothers' business.

Zhang Anshi arranged for a guarantor to invite Zhu Jin out.

It is still the same wine shop.

It's just that when Zhang Anshi appeared, the owner of the restaurant seemed to have seen a ghost.

It was this guy at the beginning, who beat people here to death, and the private room above was almost smashed to pieces.

Are you still here?

However, the more such a person is, the less he can offend him.

So Zhang Anshi went up to the second floor smoothly.

As soon as you enter the private room.

Zhu Jin, who was running around like an ant in a hot pot with his hands behind his back, saw Zhang Anshi appear, his legs softened subconsciously, and he knelt down.

I have to kneel.

Back then Liang Wu...was beaten to death, Zhu Jin thought...these vicious boys were destined to die.

Offended Liang Wu, what else could he do?

But after a few days, I heard that the house of Liang Wen, the brother of Liang Wu, who belonged to Han Wangwei's hundred households, was blown up and disabled.

Think about it, who in the city of Nanjing has such guts, even the king of heaven and I are not so fierce.

Such people are not arrested and exterminated?

But now? But he was standing in front of him alive, nothing happened.

Therefore, the young man who was looked down upon by others in the past has now become a scourge in Zhu Jin's eyes. Brother Liang Wen would die so ugly if he offended this man, let alone him, I am afraid that the other party will pinch him. With a pinch of your fingers, he can be wiped out.

"Little... villain Zhu Jin, I have seen... met... Young Master..."

Zhang Anshi kindly helped him up, and said softly: "Oh, why are you so polite, come, sit down and talk."

"No." Zhu Jin said, "I think kneeling is more comfortable."

Zhang Anshi frowned, and said, "If I tell you to stand, just stand!"

Zhu Jin got up immediately and stood motionless.

Zhang Anshi said: "What do you think about the business?"

"Do it, of course." Zhu Jin said: "But the villain heard that the ordinary cotton yarn outside costs two hundred yuan a catty. The price of two hundred and fifty yuan for such a high-quality cotton yarn is too low. It is also profitable to sell the three hundred coins."

Profit, he has probably converted it, three hundred yuan is indeed a small profit, but there is no way, he dare not make huge profits on Zhang Anshi, otherwise he won't be able to sleep!

"Three hundred dollars?" Zhang Anshi was also a little surprised, and said, "Wouldn't Brother Zhu be at a disadvantage?"

"No loss, no loss." Zhu Jin said with a dry smile: "Business is about long-term."

Zhang Anshi said: "It's just that I may have more than 100,000 catties a year, can you eat it?"

"The veil is in short supply in all the state capitals now, so we don't have to worry about selling it."

Zhang Anshi nodded: "Also... that is, I hope to import some cotton. Do you have a channel there?"

Zhu Jin said without hesitation: "It's easy to say, the villain also has contacts with cotton merchants. In the current market outside, the price of cotton is around 70 yuan a catty. Of course... if the purchase volume is large, the price can be reduced to 60 yuan, or even lower."

"Okay, I'll leave this to you too." Zhang Anshi nodded with satisfaction.

In this era, there is no concept of so-called advantages of scale.

Zhang Anshi's trump card is the advantage of scale. An ordinary cotton merchant may supply a hundred catties or a thousand catties, and the price may be seventy or eighty.

And Zhang Anshi is a real big textile company. In this era, it is definitely a large-scale production, and it is easy to get 100,000 to 200,000 catties of goods, so the price of cotton merchants is sixty, or even fifty-five. Happy to sell too!

The reason is very simple. The large-scale and stable supply reduces a lot of unnecessary selling costs, and also greatly reduces the pressure on cotton merchants' turnover and storage.

Zhang Anshi said in a good mood: "It's very good. In this way, we can make a deal?"

Zhu Jin nodded as if pecking at rice: "Yes, yes, it's a deal. But... about the cotton, I'm afraid the supply is temporarily insufficient."

Zhang Anshi asked strangely: "What's the reason?"

Zhu Jin smiled wryly and said: "Hey, this...don't you know, my lord? Su and Song two mansions are flooded, especially in the Wujiang area, ah...it's really miserable, this land of fish and rice in the south of the Yangtze River, but now countless people are hungry. The people in Lulu, because they had no food and could not borrow food, wanted to go to the city to beg but could not get it, so they starved to death by the side of the road, and even threw their money into the river. After the flood, the cotton production dropped sharply. In addition, even the river is blocked, making transportation difficult."

Zhang Anshi was very surprised, he couldn't help asking: "Is there no rescue from the imperial court?"

"Your Majesty has ordered relief, but such a catastrophe, relying on the imperial court is just a drop in the bucket, starvation is too much."

Zhang Anshi lowered his head. Songjiang, Suzhou and Hangzhou in his imagination must be as lively and prosperous as Nanjing City. How could he have imagined that...it was so bad.
