Article 174: Doing Business Spiritually

  Xiaoyonghe Front Street, Egret Dyeing Square.

  There is also a plaque on the shop in front of the dyeing workshop, called Bailu Buzhuang. The shops in this area are basically like this. The shops in the front and the workshops in the back are actually all one.

   When Cheng Ling brought Hong Guangyi out, the shopkeeper who stayed outside had already taken a merchant, She Bingfu, to look at all the fabrics in the shop.

   The shopkeeper's name is Niu Wen, and he was originally a member of the green jacket delivery team.

  Because when he was on the boat, he was slightly better at reading and arithmetic than others, and his mouth was sharp, so when he got here, Cheng Ling arranged for him to temporarily be the shopkeeper of Bailu Buzhuang.

  Hong Guangyi is a big manager. In the future, he will be in charge of the dyeing workshop affairs, and the people under him will be trained one by one.

   Niu Wen's face was red, and when he saw Cheng Ling came out, he quickly introduced the two sides.

   After the introduction, She Bingfu politely called Cheng Ling "Cheng Dongjia", and of course Cheng Ling also politely called "She Weng".

  Because this She Bingfu looks older, and his temples are already slightly frosted, of course there is a little respect for the seniors.

  She Bingfusheng had a good-natured and wealthy appearance, and came with two long attendants, a coachman, and a carriage.

  According to himself, he had visited many dyeing workshops in the Xiaoyonghe area before, and had seen a lot of fabrics. It is not that he was not satisfied, but he could not agree on the price.

   Then why did you go to Egret Dyeing Workshop?

She Bingfu said with a smile: "Businessmen seek profit, Cheng Dongjia, I'll tell you the truth. I heard that Egret Dyeing Workshop is new to the business, so I wanted to try it out. If this business can be made, Egret Dyeing Workshop can make profits. Geometry?"

  Is this cheating?

   It doesn't count, after all, people say it so straightforwardly, but it seems sincere and lovely, not offensive.

   What's more, businessmen seek profit, this is a truth. Who wouldn't be happy to take advantage of it?

   Niu Wen is already inclined to make a profit. After all, Egret Dyeing Factory has been open for so many days, but he has not even done a single business. With so many mouths waiting to eat, Niu Wen is anxious.

   But Cheng Ling is here, Niu Wen has no control, he can only resist the urge to wink.

I saw Cheng Ling smiled slowly and said: "There are 83 pieces of fabric in stock in the dye house now, and each piece has a market price. She Weng wants to make a profit, and he can make the decision. On the basis of the market price, he will always make a profit of 150%. She What does Ong think?"

  She Bingfu frowned and said, "There are only eighty-three horses in total? This... is a bit too few."

   He has already revealed his identity as soon as he arrives. He is a big businessman from Sanyang County!

  Shanyang County is thousands of miles away from Yongzhou. For a merchant like him who has come from afar, as long as he places an order, there is no reason to make a fuss.

   Otherwise, if you bring too little goods, it is not enough to go back and forth.

   Niuwen was even more anxious. Yes, She Bingfu is a big businessman. If this big customer just ran away like this, it would be very heartbreaking.

   He couldn't care less about Cheng Ling's presence, and hurriedly said, "Don't worry, She Weng, we are a dyeing workshop here. How much fabric do you want? We can dye it again at any time!"

  She Bingfu glanced at Cheng Ling, Cheng Ling didn't say anything, but it was regarded as a default of Niu Wen's words.

  She Bingfu said: "Oh, within ten days, can you have 500 horses?"

   Five hundred horses!

  Niu Wen was heartbroken and flustered, spit out his saliva, and said quickly, "This..." His eyes slid to Cheng Ling again, but now flustered has the upper hand.

   Mother, five hundred pieces of cloth, how much is that? His old cow can't count!

  I think he used to be just a rude coolie who didn't know a bunch of big characters. In the end, he followed the owner, not only across the ocean, across the sea, but now he can read, pick up an abacus, and act like a shopkeeper...

  He, he, he... why did he float away?

   This kind of business, can he talk about it?

  Cheng Ling took Niu Wen's expression changes in his eyes. From this point of view, although Niu Wen is somewhat clever, his literacy and arithmetic are slightly faster than other companions, but after all, there are still too many deficiencies.

But Cheng Ling didn't show it. Instead, she gave Niu Wen a slight nod of encouragement, and then said to She Bingfu: "She Weng, within ten days, we can't dye five hundred pieces of cloth. No matter what kind of cloth , it doesn't work."

  She Bingfu:…

   The genial smile on his face stiffened for a moment, Cheng Ling's answer was a bit too straightforward. In the shopping mall, is it really good to be so simple? She didn't plan to fight for the order of 500 pieces of cloth?

  She Bingfu suddenly sighed: "Cheng Dongjia, you... ah! Within ten days, five hundred pieces of cloth cannot be dyed. You dye house... Don't blame the old man for saying that the old man is really worried about you!"

   After he finished speaking, he looked as if he had nothing to say, cupped his hands at Cheng Ling, and turned to leave.

   Niu Wen was so anxious that he wanted to tell him to stay, but he didn't dare to say anything without permission, so he quickly turned his attention to Cheng Ling again.

   But seeing Cheng Ling standing there calmly, he was not in a hurry.

  She Bingfu had walked several steps, but Cheng Ling insisted on not keeping anyone, until She Bingfu walked to the door of the shop and was about to go out, Cheng Ling finally made a sound.

  She said: "She Weng, although it is difficult to dye 500 pieces of cloth in ten days, I can give half of the 80 pieces of cloth in stock now. The total profit is 20%. Does She Weng really want it?"

  She Bingfu turned his head, his face suddenly filled with smiles.

   Finally, Cheng Ling sold the 80 pieces of cloth in stock at a total price of 60 taels of silver.

   Although she made a profit of 20%, she was able to clear the original inventory at one time, which is a virtuous circle for the development of the dye house.

She Bingfu smiled and left his address to Cheng Ling and made an appointment with her. If Cheng Ling changed his mind within three days and wanted the large order of 500 pieces of cloth, he could come to his residence at any time. find him.

   also said: "Cheng Dong's family is young and promising, and I'm just talking too much. With your ability, you should be determined to forge ahead!"

   said, and shook his head again, as if he felt sorry for Cheng Ling's "timidity".

  After She Bingfu left, Niu Wen hurriedly said to Cheng Ling: "Master, let's work harder, can we really not dye 500 pieces of cloth in ten days?"

  Cheng Ling waved his hand, but instructed Hong Guangyi: "Go to the back and tell Wu Yun, ask him to bring a few people, and go to She Bingfu's residence to keep a close eye on it."

  Hong Guangyi was startled and said, "Lang Jun, what's wrong with this person?"

  Cheng Lingdao: "It's hard to say, but there's nothing wrong with being careful. When we do business, we must first remember a principle, do a lot of things as much as you can. Don't be greedy for cheap and don't be rash, and naturally you won't be afraid of any traps."

   This sentence is both a beating and a point. Hong Guangyi is not bad, but Niu Wen broke out in a cold sweat on his back in an instant. The previously impetuous heart could not help but feel awe-inspiring at this time.

What Cheng Ling didn't know was that after She Bingfu left, he first said to his long-stalker: "This young man surnamed Cheng is either cowardly or very shrewd, and the original plan is probably not going to work."

   Chang Sui said quickly, "How do we explain the Dai family?"

  She Bingfu was silent for a long time, but did not speak.
