Daqin Engineers

Chapter 170

As the saying goes, there is no coincidence to make a book, but after holding the two rolls of paper, he found Yun Zhen.

This is actually not a coincidence but inevitable.

Because Yuntian is in the rice grain business...This is the tradition left by Bai Gui, which is the so-called business strategy of "if you want to grow money, take down the grain".

Bai Gui believes that although the profits of daily necessities such as "down the valley" are low, the consumption flexibility is small, the transaction volume is large, and the more you win, you can also get big profits.

This is the modern management theory of "small profits but quick turnover".

So Bai Gui resolutely chose the bulk trade of agricultural products, rural handicraft raw materials and products as his main business direction.

After that, he almost monopolized the industry, earning a lot more family business than those who used jewelry to make huge profits.

Yun Tian is Bai Gui's disciple, and of course he also guards Bai Gui's theory.

And because he is indeed "small profits but quick turnover" in business, he is called a "good businessman" by the people's trust.

The good reputation in turn made the people willing to do business with Yuntian, so they became more and more popular.

It would not seem strange for modern people to know these business theories, but a group of businessmen knew to do so during the Warring States period more than two thousand years ago, that would be quite farsighted.

Because of Yuntian's reputation, the Jing who was worried about being deceived found Yuntian when he looked for it.

It was not Yunqi who received the scriptures, but Shengtian Mipu under the banner of Yunqi.

After plucking up the courage, he handed the two rolls of paper up and asked the man tremblingly:

"Look, my little brother, this thing might change rice?"

Honestly, I don’t dare to ask how many meters can be exchanged. He only hopes to exchange meters.

The guy took the paper and opened it. After looking at it for a long time, he didn't see what it was, so he gave it to the shopkeeper.

At first the shopkeeper thought this was Hey.(Pronunciation: hètí. A by-product from the production of silkworm cocoons in ancient times. It can be used for writing but is expensive)

But at first glance, it is not.

The businessman is always sensitive enough to this kind of novelty, so after asking a few sentences, he took the paper and rushed to find Yunqi.

Yun Tan was also very interested when he saw this thing: it looks like silk but not like silk, and the texture is even and smooth, so he asked curiously:

"Can you ask him how this thing was made?"

"What's the point?"

"How much rice do you want to change?"

The shopkeeper answered:

"It's just one question and three questions."

"Just ask how much rice can be exchanged!"

This is not just being honest, but he has no confidence in the exchange of food.

Although Yun Zhen didn't know the function of this thing, he felt a bit like He Jian, so he picked up a pen and wrote a few words on the paper on a whim.

I was surprised as soon as I wrote:

"The writing and coloring of this thing is clearer than Sibo and Heyu."

"And the black ink can't show through, but it's a good thing to write!"

In the next second, Yun Tian saw the business opportunities in this, and said secretly:

"If this is a manufacturing method that can buy this thing in large quantities and even obtain this thing..."

Thinking of this Yunqi, he no longer hesitated, and said:

"Quickly, go and invite the artist."

The shopkeeper responded and sent a carriage to pick up the sutra.

Yun Tian walked anxiously back and forth in the room. He regretted it as soon as he let the shopkeeper go out. He had known that he should go there by himself... Wouldn't it be a good opportunity to let someone else grab him?

After waiting for a while, the shopkeeper brought up the scriptures, and Yun Tian hurriedly greeted them:

"Lao Zhang, how did you get this thing?"

After a while, he was frightened by Yun Tian like this. He originally wanted to tell the truth, but then he thought:

"The school lieutenant repeatedly explained that the helmet-making matter should not be publicized."

"This matter is also related to the making of helmets, so where can I and other people discuss it at will?"

"Although Yun Qian can't offend him, how can the Captain Qin Army be an easy master?"

"Isn't it wrong to lose my life by accident?"

Thinking of this, Jing only bowed to Yunqi and replied:

"The owner will forgive me. I just want to know if this thing can be exchanged for food."

"If you can't..."

Before the scriptures were finished, Yun Xi replied:

"Yes, naturally it can be exchanged for food."

"How about two catties of rice for each one?"

After being stunned on the spot:

Every two catties of rice is ten dollars.

Ten cards are one hundred dollars, and the ten cards with the weft are two hundred dollars.

This thing is worth two hundred dollars?!

That Qin Military Academy Weicheng did not deceive me, this is a big deal.

Seeing the scriptures, Yun Tian didn't speak, and said that he was not satisfied with the price, so he said:

"If Lao Zhang is not satisfied with the price, then..."

Answered quickly:

"Satisfied, satisfied."

"A total of twenty tickets, so you can exchange for two hundred dollars!"

Yun Tian also wanted to ask for some information from his mouth, but he didn't dare to say more, after he took the money, he ran away just a few perfunctory sentences.

Na Yunzhen sighed with only a few pieces of paper, secretly saying that if someone else does this business, there will be less chance of making a fortune.

At this moment, Fatty came in, holding a roll of paper in his hand...

Shen Bing first heard the scripture in return, saying that a piece of paper can be exchanged for ten dollars, which happens to be the wages of a worker for a day.

In fact, the wages are less forgotten.

Ten dollars a day can only buy two catties of rice, and two catties of rice can only save a family from starvation.

After that, it was because Shen Bing was a Lieutenant of the Qin Army, so he kept his wages to a minimum...

Shen Bing did some market research during this period:

A debt-paying service worker earns eight dollars a day and requires two dollars for a day's ration, so he earns ten dollars.

In other words, ten dollars can only feed five people.

In ancient times, if there were old and young people, there were usually more than five people in a family. Seven or eight people were common.

After knowing this, Shen Bing waved his hand and took the initiative to raise his wages to fifteen dollars a day.

Anyway, now the money is easy to come by, so why not let the people live better?

Jing Zi is grateful to Shen Bing for this move.

After leaving the barracks, he sighed again... When he went to Xunwei and wanted to tell him the good news, he found that Wei hadn't known where to escape.

Jing of course knew what was going on, but it was a pity that Na Wei was mistaken by cleverness, and the good business in front of him has nothing to do with him.

As soon as he walked through the front foot, Yun Tian arrived on the back foot.

Of course, whether Yun Tian can meet or not has to be notified by Shen Bing.

Shen Bing knew why Yun Qian came here, but he would naturally not see Yun Qian in the school lieutenant camp...

It should be said that Yuntian is still useful.

Because business matters are uncertain.

For example, repaying debts with paper... Now it works because it has a small circulation and the scarcity is more expensive.

If there are more and more papers on the market, and the merchants join forces to deliberately lower prices, the value will soon depreciate.

Therefore, if Shen Bing wants to use paper to repay debts, he must not only ensure that artists are willing, but also that there is a stable and credit-worthy buyer in the market.

Only in this way can those craftsmen really get paid and relatively stable, instead of some useless paper for them.

Therefore, Yunqi, a businessman, is important, which is why Shen Bing deliberately asked Fatty to use paper to pay off his debts.
