It not only makes the people benefit, but also makes the emperor happy, and it is also very beneficial to his reputation as Duke Wei, can Grandpa Wei be happy?

It's just that the business in these years is still too underdeveloped, and the logistics are pitifully low in addition to transportation.

There are no means such as TV advertisements that can spread quickly, Rao is Wei Gonggong stopped all the way, and the scope of welfare distribution was limited to both sides of the canal, no more than 50 miles.

As a result, there is a very small audience.

If there are fewer people who buy things, you can see the income from selling things.

It took a few days to sell two ships, and this has to be sold until the Year of the Monkey?

It's not that Gonggong Wei didn't want to take these goods as the first batch of materials for him to go to sea to make a fortune, at the beginning, he really hit the idea, simply empty gloves white wolf, with the redemption resources of Shandong bigwigs, with the friendship of the Ming people to go to sea to earn a trade surplus.

It's just that after listening to some "reports" from southern businessmen, Gonggong Wei dispelled this idea.

The consequence of this is that he will pay for his death.

Because, the goods purchased by the Shandong bigwigs are basically shipped from the south, and the price far exceeds the cost.

In other words, if Gonggong Wei wants to get rid of this batch of goods in the south, the price must plummet, otherwise it will be uncompetitive.

In this way, it is not necessary to make money and trouble, and to do a lot of hard work.

Therefore, it is better to sell it on the spot, and the people will get it cheaply.

However, although the idea is good, it is difficult to put it into practice.

It took a few days to sell two ships of goods, and most of the money was copper coins, which was enough to make Gonggong Wei lose his soul.

It is conservatively estimated that this batch of goods will have to be sold all the way to Yangzhou to clear the warehouse, and it will take at least two months.

Father-in-law Wei was in a hurry, and once personally got off the boat and shouted, half selling and half giving away.

As a result, he was angry.

Maybe his reputation as a good man of Wei Gonggong spread too far, so that some people regarded him as a great good man, and even gave birth to the idea of receiving it for free.

If Wei Da idiot doesn't give it, he will not be a good person in the blink of an eye, but a bad eunuch and a traitor from Beijing.

Although there are few such people, it seriously affects the mood of Gonggong Wei.

I can't be general with them, so I won't wave my hand and give the people a "pig burst".

Fortunately, there is a good side.

According to the analysis of several shrewd old horse thieves under Zheng Duo, there have obviously been large transactions of large quantities of goods at the big market recently, and the buyers are nearby merchants.

These merchants, who were much more sensible than the common people, did not come forward to buy them themselves, but paid someone to buy them for them, and then paid for them.

The reason why this is the case is probably because these businessmen know that this Wei Gonggong is a good person, but no matter how kind he is, I am afraid that no one wants anyone to bargain under him.

To avoid trouble, it is better to hide behind the scenes.

Gonggong Wei pondered, these merchants were teaming up to gather his wool.

He sold half of the old man and half gave away, selling all the way, in order for the people to make a real profit and make a name for himself, but it was obviously against the original intention to ask the merchants to get involved.

However, this is the inevitability of a market economy.

There is no one in the world who sells anything and does not allow anyone to buy it.

Zheng Duo knew the true intention of Father-in-law Wei, so he proposed to send more people to visit tomorrow, but if he saw the bulk purchase, he would withhold it.

"It's not proper, the merchant is also the emperor's people, and our family can't look at it differently."

Gonggong Wei vetoed this proposal, and the class is one. Just because we sympathize with the poor and the disadvantaged, we should not be prejudiced against the rich.

One is willing to sell, the other is willing to buy, how can people be deducted just because they buy more.

"Otherwise, limit the purchase, set a quantity, and only buy as much as one person is allowed." It was Sister Xiuzhi who came up with the idea, with a calculated look.

Gonggong Wei shook his head: "When will it be sold?" ”

"This doesn't work, that doesn't work, so what do you want?" Sister Xiuzhi was not happy.

Father-in-law Wei smiled and instructed Zheng Duo: "Tomorrow, it will be sold as individual customers and wholesale." ”

What is a casual customer, Zheng Duo understands, what is wholesale, he is puzzled.

"Ordinary people come to buy it, and the price is lower. If you buy in bulk, the price is higher. "Father-in-law Wei is contrary to the normal state of the world, and the people who do business are expensive for individual customers and cheap for wholesale. By his point, it had changed.

"This?"

Zheng Duo and Sister Xiuzhi both made this method confused, and they couldn't figure it out.

"Let's do it, clearly mark the price, and Tong Suo will not be bullied."

Father-in-law Wei didn't bother to explain, and waved his hand to Zheng Duo to go down.

There's nothing illogical about this.

For the basis of this trade is not profit, but of love.

Therefore, it can be explained.

The people are still affordable, but their purchasing power is small, so they can't help him Wei Gonggong clear the warehouse.

It is understandable that the businessman pursues profits, but he scolds his father-in-law Wei, which makes his father-in-law angry. Then simply increase the price for you, so that you can get less wool from your father-in-law, and your father-in-law's heart can be smooth.

The most important thing is that the bulk purchases of the merchants can quickly help him reduce the burden on his father-in-law Wei.

Compared with the actual market price of these goods, even if the price is raised, the merchants still make a lot of money. Therefore, don't worry about them not buying.

Father-in-law Wei is vigorous and resolute, and he is talking about faith.

On the second day, a notice was posted on the pier, bluntly stating the rules of trading here.

As a result, rave reviews.

The merchants who had been hiding in the shadows all surfaced to the surface, and used the money to purchase the goods they had long admired.

I really don't know, I take a risk.

After Zheng Duo's inspection, he learned that half of the merchants in it had followed all the way from Jining.

It can be said that wherever Grandpa Wei goes, they will go.

Originally, it was limited to the fact that the other party was a big eunuch, with soldiers and horses, and the merchants did not dare to float on the waves, so they acted steadily and masturbated slowly. Now that it's okay, Father-in-law Wei opened the market by himself and clarified the conditions, although the price is a little higher than before, but after deducting the cost of intermediate procurement, it is not much. The key is to save time and effort.

On the same day, four ships were emptied at once.

Under the mutual spread of merchants, more and more buyers and sellers from the surrounding prefectures and counties moved closer to Weishan Lake.

Such a cheap good thing in the world is rare in a hundred years.

Gonggong Wei saw that the situation was very good, and the scenery here was good, so he simply stayed for a few more days.

For the next few days, before dawn, the wharf was crowded with merchants who had come to buy.

One, two...

Within a few days, more than half of the goods were emptied, and the net profit of Father-in-law Wei was more than 70,000 taels. There was an empty ship's hold full of copper coins.

According to the value of the remaining goods, in the end, Gonggong Wei was able to get more than 100,000 taels, and with the real silver cash paid by Chen Zeng before, the redemption fee of 500,000 taels was discounted by 6%, and the actual amount was about less than 35 taels.

The other twenty taels were the cheap people, and the merchants were sent away.

It is true that Gonggong Wei values money and likes money, but he really looks at these 200,000 taels.

It's better to be happy alone than to be happy with everyone.

After a few days of large-scale dumping, the market is close to saturation.

The remaining more than ten ships of goods are ready to be brought to Xuzhou for sale.

The benefits can't be called all in one place.

The canal is connected to Weishan Lake, after the fleet entered Weishan Lake, Gonggong Wei sat on the Taishi chair, looking at the sparkling lake, bored, and suddenly thought that he should not waste his life, in vain the trust of the emperor, and must do something meaningful.
