Lin Haoran saw everyone's reflection in his eyes, although he has the prestige of making a decision, he is not an arbitrary person.

He coughed lightly, and after attracting everyone's attention, he asked the shopkeeper Weng: "Shopkeeper Weng, how much silver taels did our joint workshop spend on cotton this year?" ”

"This ...... We haven't officially counted it yet, but the cost of purchasing cotton should be more than 120,000 taels! The shopkeeper thought about it seriously, and then replied solemnly.

Hey?

Hearing this number, everyone was surprised for a while, but then relieved. After all, the sales of this year's Liangong Workshop cloth have reached hundreds of thousands, how can the cotton procurement be low?

Lin Haoran took a sip of tea and asked with a smile, "What do you think about next year?" ”

"Once the workshop in the east of the city is completed, we will definitely have to purchase more cotton, and the cost will definitely be more than 200,000 taels, or even 300,000 taels!" The shopkeeper Weng analyzed honestly.

Everything had to be compared, and many of the people present were shrewd businessmen who quickly figured out the deal. The investment of 400,000 taels seems to be very large, but the potential benefits are not small, and they can even solve their own cotton needs by themselves.

What's more, in addition to planting cotton crops, they will also grow chili peppers, which can also generate a lot of profits through Yipin sauce and United Restaurant.

Lin Haoran nodded slightly, turned his head to look at the silent Huazi and said: "Outside of the flower staff, if we want to purchase 300,000 taels of cotton in the next year, can your Huajia guarantee to buy it, and can you guarantee the current purchase price?" ”

"This ...... I! ”

Hua Zisu does not have the excitement of falling pies from the sky, this amount is okay, once it reaches a certain amount, the difficulty and price of procurement can go up.

Just this month, he officially signed a contract for the purchase of 100,000 taels of cotton next year with the joint workshop. Even if it was this amount, he felt very struggling, let alone 300,000 taels.

Everyone looked at his spitting appearance, knowing that this was beyond the scope of the Hua family's ability, and I am afraid that only the Xu family in Songjiang would have the confidence to agree in the entire Ming Dynasty.

As soon as they thought about it, they found that the problem of cotton was much more serious than they imagined, and it was even a stepping stone for them to move forward.

Lin Haoran looked at the people present again, and said with a heartfelt attitude: "Our joint workshop is to achieve an annual output of one million horses, ten million horses, but have you ever thought that once the cotton from Jiangsu and Zhejiang cannot reach us, then there will only be a pile of rotten wood left in our workshop!" Whether it is now or in the future, I feel that it is necessary to pay attention to the issue of cotton! ”

"We can't hold on to our feet temporarily, I, Shen, support this plan!"

"400,000 taels is a ball, I, Yang Chunlai, agree to this plan!"

"I agree too! No matter how difficult it is, we will go to Luzon to build our cotton and pepper base! ”

……

Shen Liuye and the others had already moved, but not only did Lin Haoran make a clearer statement, but they saw the current situation clearly.

In the final analysis, it is the weakness of cotton that makes trouble. The huge purchase of cotton is one thing, and the instability of cotton, no one dares to guarantee that the cotton in Jiangsu and Zhejiang will not be cut off, which directly affects the production of the joint workshop.

Even if they had already started a cotton storage program, it would be depleted in less than a month at the current production rate of the joint workshop.

"Although this investment is not small, I support the advancement of this plan!"

Zhao Fugui also expressed his support, and his concern about the risks of this plan is not false, but it is completely out of public interest. And he didn't want to be like Gu Mancang, trying to make everyone settle for the status quo, and then being kicked out of the game directly by Lin Haoran.

Although he now has more than ten times the profit from selling his shares, he doesn't think it's going to be a good deal. Not to mention that United Business Finance has a bright future, just holding Lin Haoran's thick thighs, he feels that everything is worth it.

In particular, plantation in Luzon may seem like a risk, but the joint workshop can afford it and is worth the risk. If it is successful, then the joint workshop will not be constrained by Jiangsu and Zhejiang cotton, and the cost will be recovered in a few years, and it will be able to make a long-term profit.

Huang Dafu is a newcomer to the joint business group, and chooses to sit in the last seat, seeing all this in his eyes. While feeling the enthusiasm of the United Business Group, he also secretly admired Lin Haoran.

From the establishment of the United Cooperative Workshop, to the voyage of the United Fleet, and then to the idea of the cotton base today. In just over a year, under the leadership of Lin Haoran, a perfect cotton industry chain has been gradually built.

Once the plan of the cotton base is implemented, no matter what direction it will develop in the future, the United Business Group will be able to grow day by day with Leizhou cloth alone, and become the most powerful consortium in the entire Ming Dynasty.

Lin Haoran looked at everyone with great satisfaction, watching the plan be progressed step by step, and there was a sense of satisfaction in his heart, and then he said: "Since everyone has no opinion, then this project has been decided, and we will promote the plantation plan next year!" ”

"Good!" Shen Liuye and the others nodded one after another.

After negotiating the matter, Lin Haoran left the shopkeeper Weng and Yang Chunlai behind, and the shopkeeper Weng drew up a list of gifts, so that Yang Chunlai could send New Year's gifts of varying amounts to the relevant officials or generals.

Lin Haoran is now the day of Leizhou Mansion, but there will be a day when he will leave. And if you want to continue to firmly grasp this place, in addition to his residual prestige, some public relations spending is naturally indispensable.

In the same way, since last year, Lianhe Workshop has quietly set up a public relations department, which is handled by Yang Chun, and the relationship between all parties is increased with money.

Because the New Year is very close, the streets of Leizhou are full of New Year's goods, and Hu Niu has also purchased a lot of New Year's goods, planning to bring them back to Changlin Village on the 29th of the year.

Although she was very happy in Leizhou City, she was even more looking forward to returning to Changlin Village for the New Year, especially going back with her brother, which made her even more excited.

But in this festive atmosphere, a hurried bell shattered the festive atmosphere in an instant. With an urgent military message, the gates of Leizhou City slowly closed, and Leizhou Wei quickly went to the various city gates.

"The Wokos are coming?"

Soon the news came that nearly 1,000 Japanese invaded Leizhou Bay, and some Japanese invaded Leizhou Bay, and some Japanese invaded the mouth of the Nandu River.

After learning the news, the people of Leizhou City seemed to be very panicked, and many people looked up at the sky to the east, and it was a dark cloud coming from the east, which made people even more frightened.
