Chapter 110: Forgive you as a ghost, and drink my son's foot-washing water!
Zhao Hao was indeed right. Mr. Liu hung the two of them for more than two hours. It was not until he finished his meal and got up to sleep that someone called them over.
Now there is no need to make up emotions. Zhao Hao and his two faces are ashen, and their anxious expressions can't be gone.
"Oh, my nephew is here too?" Mr. Liu sat under the grape trellis. He saw the two of them coming and didn't get up. He just spoke sarcastic words there: "Why didn't you say it earlier? Uncle, please invite you to try Suzhou cuisine."
"Official Liu really did what he said." Zhao Hao showed his complicated mood at this moment appropriately.
"Uh haha..." Liu Yuanwai then stood up with a slight smile, and sat down and said, "Boss Tang, Nephew Zhao may have some misunderstandings. I am not targeting your family, but my Suzhou Chamber of Commerce has decided to not sell silk for a few months. The price of silk does not rise as much as we expect, so no one is allowed to sell it."
"Oh, that's right..." Tang Youde said with a worried look on his face: "What should I do now? I have already negotiated the factory, loom and weaver, and I have paid a deposit of tens of thousands of taels. If I can't buy silk, wouldn't the money be wasted?"
"Why don't Boss Tang go to Song, Chang, and ask again?" Mr. Liu made a fake suggestion, and then directly extinguished his hope and said, "But now the price of silk has risen to three or three. It is estimated that no one will take action before five or three."
"Ah..." Tang Youde's tears fell down and he said dejectedly: "When that time, I'm afraid the daylily will be cold."
"I'm really sorry, but I'm not the only one who decides the Chamber of Commerce." Liu Yuanwai squinted his eyes and looked at Zhao Hao, seemingly apologetic, but in fact he deserves a beating.
Boy, I have eaten more salt than you have ever eaten. I want to be with me, but you are even more tender!
"You are cruel, I admit defeat this time." Zhao Hao said with a dark face: "I can't twist my arms, so I agree to break off the engagement."
"Hahaha, the forced melon is not sweet, my nephew should have figured it out long ago." Liu Yuanwai looked increasingly proud, but he continued to grasp it with great regret: "But before, even if he has retired from the marriage, I can't sell it to you, otherwise how can I, as the president, convince everyone?"
"Then...whether... borrow silk?" Tang Youde looked at Mr. Liu carefully.
"Borrow silk?" Mr. Liu looked at Fatty Tang, not surprised by this.
Because since there are specialized machine owners and recruit professional weavers to produce in the factory, borrowing silk has become the norm in the industry.
Small farmers produce each household, and they always have as much silk as they weave. The looms are often idle for half a year. But it is different to start a factory. Professional weavers need to start work every day, and weaving households must keep a steady stream of silk to provide each loom with enough raw silk.
Raw silk is expensive, and large-scale procurement is inevitably difficult to turnover. Borrow silk first starts construction and waits for production to repay debts after completion, which has become the business model of all machine owners.
But Mr. Liu was still a little wary of Tang Youde's proposal to borrow silk.
"I heard that Boss Tang sold tens of thousands of kilograms of silk before. Since he had plans to open a factory, why not keep some for yourself and sell them all?"
"Oh, it's all about tears." Tang Youde explained with a wry smile: "The big head of buying silk funds was offered by Master Xuelang from Dabaoen Temple. His purpose was to earn money from the temple construction. When he saw that he had made enough money, he insisted on selling silk. He was the major shareholder, so he naturally had the final say."
"In addition, I am also optimistic about the silk weaving industry. I feel that after opening a sea, this industry will definitely make more money than opening a southern store. So I want to take advantage of the price of the yard, loom, and weaver, and the price of raw silk has not yet risen to the top, so I quickly withdraw money and buy it."
Tang Youde said as he spread his hands and said, "I was so clever at that time. I thought it would take less than a month or two to open a factory. The price of silk will definitely not be so high at that time. I will sell it high first. If I buy it low at that time, wouldn't I save a lot of money inside and outside?"
"Hahaha..." Now Liu Yuanwai had no doubts about him. He smiled and patted Tang Youde's arm and said, "This is called "Apart from the line is like a mountain". If Boss Tang wants to change the line, he has to pay the apprenticeship fee."
"Oh, this time I've really invested a lot of money." Tang Youde said, bowing to Mr. Liu and begging, "Look, I've persuaded Mr. Zhao to come too. He raised his hand and no longer made things difficult for Mr. Liu. Mr. Liu will give us a way out."
"Well..." Mr. Liu pretended to think about it. But in fact, there was nothing to think about for him.
First of all, for some reason, he needed to break off the engagement immediately, otherwise he would offend someone again.
Secondly, he did not lie. The price of raw silk is at least five taels, or even higher. Moreover, the price of silk will be at a high level, and it will be maintained until the raw silk is on the market next spring, so that it will be possible to pull back slightly.
Therefore, the 100,000 kilograms of silk he had stored in Curry, rather than having long hairs on it, it would be better to lend it out and earn a ticket of interest!
Thinking of this, he let go of his brows and said, "How to calculate interest?"
"Borrow it for three months first, and follow the industry rules." Tang Youde replied.
"Nine out and thirteen return..." Liu Yuanwai pondered for a moment, shook his head and said, "The price of silk is hard to tell at that time, and it is not easy to calculate if it is sold as silver."
"It's simple. I borrow silk to repay the silk without money. Isn't it simple?" Tang Youde seemed to make up his mind and said what Liu Yuanwai likes to hear the most.
In a bullish market, borrowing silk to repay silk is of course more profitable than borrowing silk to repay silver.
Seeing that Fatty Tang was so generous, even if he didn't have the conditions to break off the engagement, Mr. Liu wanted to lend him silk.
"How much do you have to borrow?" Mr. Liu asked.
"I can't use much silk as soon as I get up, but I'm going to add the loom to 500 units within three months, and it will take about 20,000 kilograms of silk to withstand it." Tang Youde said the number.
"Twenty thousand kilograms of silk are nothing before, but now they are worth it." Liu Yuanwai glanced at Zhao Hao and said, "I'm afraid I can't borrow so much for you just by just a marriage letter."
"I can also use Tang Ji as a guarantee. If I don't pay it back then, both stores belong to Mr. Liu." Tang Youde gritted his teeth and was bound to win.
After a brief calculation, Mr. Liu had already investigated. Tang Youde's two southern goods stores were located in downtowns, with a large scale and a lot of profits. They could be worth 20,000 taels of silver.
"It has to be added with very fresh flavor." Mr. Liu was so smart that he was unwilling to take any risks. He glanced at Zhao Hao and said, "Can you make the decision?"
"You're ruthless, you can." Zhao Hao nodded expressionlessly.
After the most difficult conditions were negotiated, Mr. Liu did not need to make things difficult for the two of them anymore, and the three parties quickly established a contract.
Then the next day, the two sides came to Bailuzhou Wharf to deliver the goods. When Mr. Liu transferred 18,000 kilograms of raw silk to Tang Youde's name, Zhao Hao also exchanged his daughter's Geng Tie for his own.
When Fatty Tang went to send Liu Yuanwai back, Zhao Hao played with his Geng Tie for a moment, and then tore it apart and threw it into the river.
"Huh, now my father and son have finally regained their freedom..."
Zhao Hao stood on the dock with his hands behind his back, feeling that the world was much wider.
At this time, Fatty Tang came back, carefully took out the deposit certificate and asked Zhao Hao, "Young Master, what should we do next?"
"Didn't you say it? I've sold them all for me in the past two days, and a pound of silk is not allowed to be left!" Zhao Hao looked at the groups of egrets in the distance, revealing the sneer of a cat-show rat.
If you are a traitor named Liu, you should drink my master's foot wash!
