There are risks in doing a mature silk thread business, and the storage of threads is a big problem.

Chen Chuan himself said just now, setting fires, moisture-proofing, and insect-proofing. Chen Chuan and Liu Biao were in contact with each other, so he could do this silk thread business in this Jingzhou situation.

The business is also very big. However, Chen Chuan did not dare to buy too many cooked silk threads to avoid improper storage and losing all his money.

There is no way, no one can guarantee that such a thing is safe. Even if it is an accident, it will definitely be tragic.

And doing this business is of course fast in and out.

After purchasing the goods, it is true that it is sold quickly, and there is no benefit to squeeze it in your hands. And if you can sell 200,000 cooked silk thread at once, then the price can of course be discussed.

Quickly in and out.

There is a risk when holding cooked silk thread in your hands. If you sell it quickly, you will earn a little less money. But you will quickly collect funds and quickly acquire a batch of cooked silk threads.

Anyway, because the south is stable, there are many families who plant mulberry trees and raise silkworms. Jingzhou's raw silk production has always been large and the supply is sufficient.

Just sell it and you can buy it back. The shorter the buying and selling cycle, the more you make.

Businessmen in ancient and modern times understand this truth.

Chen Chuan was immediately moved, but soon became suspicious again.

Although the local businessman in Fangling has been doing business with me, the scale has always been very small. Why did he suddenly become generous? Could it be that there is a fraud?

This is called looking down on people.

But it's normal.

Just like two farmers, living next to each other for many years, wearing the same linen and torn clothes every day, regardless of wind and rain. Suddenly, the neighbor became generous, put on brocade clothes, and got on a chariot, and behaved as if he was a scholar.

It only brings thriller.

Chen Chuan is a philandering businessman, so the first thing he thought of was a fraud. So Chen Chuan leaned his head and asked: "The business of 200,000 kilograms of cooked silk thread is quite big. Where did Mr. Li make a fortune recently?"

Li Zhong was also a businessman who had been a lifelong businessman. He didn't know that Chen Chuan was suspicious when he heard this. However, the other party's reaction was normal.

When talking about this, Li Zhong was a little proud.

"As the saying goes, officials and businessmen, only if there is an official behind them, you can do business. Mr. Chen, you have some connection with Liu Zhennan, so the business is getting bigger and bigger. But this time I encountered such a good thing."

Li Zhong was a little proud and a little excited.

This is the joy brought by wearing Guanping's tiger skin.

As Li Zhong said, officials and businessmen, officials and businessmen, the characters in front and the characters in the back can only make a fortune by colluding with merchants. Why did Li Zhong agree to the matter of running a factory?

Why did Guan Ping sell his capital without investing?

Of course, the main reason is that he is optimistic about this business. Guan Ping has a good official reputation and has a brand.

Another reason is that I also want to take the Guanping boat.

I can see how much money I have made after Liu Biao became the lord of Jingzhou. Although Guan Ping is only the governor of Fangling County, his population has grown up like a snowball.

Of course, Li Zhong is just an ordinary businessman, with a short vision and no longer can tell that the Guan family is in an upward period and its future prospects are limitless.

Just because Guan Ping is the prefect of Fangling and Guan Yu is the left general Du Xinye, this official skin is already Li Zhong's ten minutes of intention.

Only by collusion between officials and businessmen can the water rise and the ship rises.

Chen showed relief when he heard the words, and believed Li Zhong's words. Speaking of collusion between officials and businessmen, Chen Chuan was deeply touched. It must be known that before Liu Biao came to Jingzhou, he was just a small businessman.

After Liu Biao became the lord of Jingzhou, Chen Chuan began to make a fortune.

If a businessman does not have the protection of an official, he cannot be bigger.

Chen Chuan, who was able to make his business bigger, his status began to rise, and his contact level began to be different. He knew deeply that Guan Ping was not simple.

Don't look at it from other perspectives for now.

From the perspective of a businessman, Guan Ping helped Liu Bei with advice and did a lot of things. The Mi Liquor was developed. This was not a means for a businessman, but he could only tell a secret recipe.

But later, Cai Mao and Zhang Yun combined to resist Mi's wine together, which almost made Mi's wine die. Guan Ping personally went to Jiangdong, and after a series of methods, Mi's wine entered the case of the Jiangdong gentry and became a must-have for the banquet.

Because the Guan family is really strong at the moment, Guan Ping personally went south to capture Fangling, and defeated the Sima of Wang Wei's camp at the foot of Miliang Mountain. He was brave and good at fighting, and looked very similar to his father.

It is the talent of a powerful general.

Liu Biao began to investigate everything about Guan Ping, and this investigation was really amazing. Guan Ping had a Mi family wine and went to Jiangdong to do something, Liu Biao knew.

In addition, Guan Ping took the opportunity to suggest that Liu Bei set up a market in Xinye City to attract businessmen from all over the north and the south to collect taxes from the bulk transactions.

Simply put, it is to start a business in a tooth business.

Yashang is a middle-aged merchant, responsible for communicating with all sides of the north and the south. For example, the merchant from Xiangyang from Bashu wanted to buy cloth, but because he had just entered the treasure land and could not find a way, he looked for Yashang.

After the introduction of the Yashu Bank, the transaction was completed and a sum of funds was collected as a reward.

Guan Ping set up a market in Xinye and ordered Mi Fang to manage it. Merchants gathered from the north and south hang the goods in the market and keep them in the government office. Then, whoever wants to buy what can be seen at a glance.

Isn’t it just a business that the government collects taxes?

Although Mi Liquor makes a lot of gold every day, the Shinye market is also a big deal. Otherwise, Shinye would not have reached its current level so quickly.

Although Xinye's population has increased slowly, various military supplies, leather, iron ore, beef tendon, grain, firewood, and various supplies have accumulated in mountains.

The granary and the arsenal were full of stuff.

I heard that the valley can provide 200,000 military and civilians and save money for three years, which is really terrible. There are also buying horses and oxen everywhere, and I heard that the cavalry has a scale of 1,000.

It's really terrible.

A war horse requires ten gold. A cavalry of a thousand scale costs ten thousand gold. I heard that Xinye's cavalry is still one person and two horses, one war horse and one slow horse.

In addition, the cost of serving war horses and slow horses is simply astronomical. In addition, as a merchant, Chen Chuan knew that there were very few war horses in the south, and the number of cavalry in Guanping was expanding rapidly. I am afraid that if he bought war horses at a premium, it would be possible to buy one war horse with 1500 gold.

Xinye made a lot of money, but he spent more money, like flowing water. This force is really terrible, just like a machine of war, using all the money on the machine.

And all this is the idea that Guan Ping came up with.

Mie wine, market.

From the perspective of a businessman, Guan Ping, a teenager, is really like a God of Wealth coming from heaven, and it is terrible.

From the perspective of a strategist, Guan Ping solved the money and food crisis for Liu Bei. Not to mention that he is resourceful, at least he has many ideas.

clever.

Guan Ping defeated Wang Yan, a battalion under Wang Wei, on Miliang Mountain, and was absolutely brave and good at fighting. I heard from others (Liu Yan) that Guan Ping was also good at leading troops. Liu Bei tried to be a Sima of another department, commanding hundreds of people, uniformed in an orderly manner, and the military order was very strict, which was definitely unusual.

As a businessman, Guan Ping is excellent.

As a strategist, Guan Ping seems to be good too.

As a general, Guan Ping is also excellent.

The most incredible thing is that Guan Ping actually went south to capture Fangling and settled firmly. Xiangyang and Fangling are separated by mountains, and the roads are blocked.

Only the Han River is connected.

But news kept coming from Fangling. I heard that Guan Ping was doing a good job as the prefect and his power increased greatly. He is currently training and preparing for the troops.

Although Guan Ping is now under his father Guan Yu, he is also considered a prince.

The title of princes can be explained differently in different periods. In peacetime, princes refer to princes, and no matter how many households are enfeoffed, they are princes.

Nowadays, princes refer to heroes.

Zhang Lu, the county magistrate of Hanzhong, was dominated by Hanzhong for many years and was also an iron-clad prince. Guan Ping seized Fangling, and under his command, he had tens of thousands of soldiers and 200,000 to 300,000 people, and he was also a prince in the same area.

The father and son work together and can already go hand in hand with Zhang Lu.

Of course, the strength of a force cannot be concluded through simple calculations, and it also needs to involve all aspects.

The main reason is that the princes are strong, the subordinates are strong.

If the civil and military under his command are strong, the people will be strong and the soldiers will be strong. If the people will be strong and the soldiers will be strong, you can defeat the many with few, just like Cao Cao defeated Yuan Shao.

Chen Chuan was a little aware of it and was able to get in touch with the core circle of Jingzhou, so he was a little worried. He was well aware of the current situation in Jingzhou.

The military preparations are abolished, and the army is filled with vulgar people.

Although there are many warships, many have been damaged and have been disrepaired for a long time.

Civil officials have many problems, mostly because they are greedy and empty talk, occupying high positions and real power, just like Cai Mao, Zhang Yun, and Kuai Yue and other think tanks are on the edge.

Chen Chuan felt that the current Guan family and Liu family were like Cao Cao and Yuan Shao. If there was no external force to borrow, the Guan family would eventually defeat the Liu family.

At most, I'll just take a few more years.

Chen Chuan was very worried about this.

Chen Chuan and Liu Biao have some connections. They have been doing business for many years and have a wealthy family. I am afraid of this.

This is also the shortcomings of the officials and businessmen. If the officials are defeated, how can the merchants survive?

In short, Chen Chuan felt that Guan Ping's future was limitless, so he was a little envious of Li Zhong, a little businessman, who was lucky enough to be able to make a fortune after Guan Ping's butt.

What a lucky guy.

Many distracting thoughts circling in their minds, but eventually disappeared. Chen Chuan returned to the present, and he smiled and bowed to Li Zhong, saying, "Congratulations to Mr. Li."

After congratulations, Chen Chuan pondered for a moment before saying, "The 200,000 kilograms of cooked silk thread is indeed a big business. I currently only have 100,000 kilograms of cooked silk thread in the warehouse, and it will take three days to raise 200,000."

"Three days does not matter, what is the price?" Li Zhong also changed back to the business channel and said seriously.

"How about 440 pounds of cooked silk thread per pound?" Chen Chuan pondered for a while, then asked tentatively.

The price of cooked silk thread has always been stable, the market price has been maintained at 450 yuan per catty, and the cost of a piece of cloth costs 9,000 yuan.

The middle-aged merchant sold it to the woman at the same price. After the wife weaved the cloth, the merchant bought a piece of cloth for 9,200 yuan and sold it for ten thousand yuan.

The profit is already quite high.
