Huo Xi made some plans and thought up some words before everyone from Taoyedu came back.
I also discussed it with Huo Erhuai and Yang.
It was also the first time that the couple had encountered such a thing, so they just listened to Huo Xi. Yang Fu nodded repeatedly to express his support.
After everyone had eaten dinner, they gathered the boat together again and talked about the ship being requisitioned.
Huo Xi stood up and said, "Uncles, I got some information in the city today and want to share it with you and get some advice. I wonder if you would like to hear it?"
Everyone saw that she was the head of the Huo family at such a young age. They all looked at the Huo family and his wife and became happy.
"Listen, who doesn't know that you, little Huo Xi, are a lucky baby? You have replaced your parents' small dinghy boats with big ones. If it weren't for you, your parents would still have to row that small dingy boat to continue floating in the river, and your uncle probably wouldn't be able to get it.
A mother-in-law."
Yang Fu pouted, why can't I please my mother-in-law?
Look down on me.
But Xi'er is indeed a lucky baby. If it weren't for Xi'er, his family would still be in that small broken boat, and I don't know how long it will take before they can get ashore.
I couldn't help but take a look at Qian Xiaoxia's side. It was great. That little broken boat was no longer my own.
Yu Jiang went back to the countryside today and planned to tell his family about the ship being requisitioned.
Today he suddenly went back and found out that not only were they abused at home, but his wife and two daughters were not allowed to eat at the table. Seeing her mother and daughter squatting in the kitchen eating some leftovers, Yu Jiang felt like needles pricking his heart.
I wish I could have taken them to the boat right then and there.
After comforting his wife and daughter, he reluctantly left his hometown.
After hearing what Huo Xi said this time, he stood up and said, "Xi boy, if you have anything to say, we all in Taoyedu are all in the same group and are destined to be together. This time we must go north together. Everyone.
Being together all the way, it's good to have someone to take care of you."
Everyone responded: "That's right, let the river stop break us up when the time comes. We will still be together and take care of each other."
Qian Sanduo also said to Huo Xi: "Xi, if you have any ideas, just tell everyone."
Huo Xi recounted the news he heard today.
"Can you bring things with you?" "Bring the local products from the north back to the capital to sell?"
Hiss. Is this true?
"Huo Xi, did you hear that correctly? Can the government allow us to do this?"
"Yes, delaying the delivery of food is a big deal that will cause you to lose your head."
Since ancient times, people have been afraid of officials and have a natural fear of people of a higher class than themselves.
Huo Xi then said: "We may not be able to bring much with us when we go. After all, we have to transport food. When we come back, we will have an empty ship. Then we can all show our talents."
Hiss, yes, the food has been unloaded, how can the escort officer still keep an eye on them?
It's a pity to come back with an empty boat. It's wasted.
Many people became enthusiastic.
Mrs. Sun also began to think about what to take with her and what to buy back. Thinking about how much money she could make from this round of transactions, her heart was beating so fast that she couldn't sit still.
Qian Xiaoyu and Yu Jiang felt hot in their hearts, but quickly calmed down.
Bartering between the north and the south is a good idea. But you don't need capital to buy local products? How much can you buy with your three melons and two dates? If you can't sell it, you'll lose all your capital.
Yu Jiang secretly hid some money on his person, but he never did anything so risky.
Listening to everyone talking about it, their brows were furrowed.
Looking at Huo Xi: "Xi boy, do you have any ideas?"
Everyone stopped talking and looked at Huo Xi.
Huo Xi looked at each other, Yang and Huo Erhuai, and received their encouragement.
Then he said: "My family is going to bring some goods to Huai'an. If uncles don't bring anything with them, can you help us load some goods? We will give you thirty cash a day."
"When we return, my family will lend money to the uncle who helps us carry the goods, so that you can have the capital to receive the goods. When you come back, you can sell it by yourself, and my family will share 20% of the money. You can also let my family sell it and make a profit.
My family wants to be divided into 40%."
Everyone was stunned by what he said.
I originally thought it was a great idea to use the transportation of grain to carry out barter business between the north and the south. I just calculated the money at home and found that those with little or no money were already wailing in their hearts.
Should we let such a good thing slip away in vain?
But what did they hear now?
The Huo family actually wants to lend them money as capital? Borrow the Huo family's money to lay eggs?
Everyone went through Huo Xi's words over and over again in their minds and realized that this was a business without capital.
They have the capital to receive the goods!
If you can sell it yourself, you can borrow the Huo family's capital and get 80% of the profit. If you are afraid of losing it, you can let the Huo family sell it, and you can get 60% of the profit.
You won’t lose anything, and you will make money with your blood!
Yu Jiang stood up hurriedly: "Brother Erhuai, count me in. When I go there, I will stop looking for food and help you carry the goods. When I get to the north, I might as well go shopping in Huai'an and buy some rare goods to sell.
."
Uncle Zou also hurriedly took his grandson Zou Sheng's hand and stood up: "Erhuai is also a member of my family. I will also help you carry the goods. If we have anything in mind when we get to Huai'an, I hope you can borrow some money.
Give us."
Huo Erhuai took a look at Uncle Zou and saw that his boat was much smaller than the one they had before.
His old wife and grandson were crowded on the boat, and there were only three of them left in the family.
The older one is older and the younger one is younger. Fortunately, the grandson is twelve years old and can be considered a half-working man.
Nodding: "Hey, let me count you as one of my family."
The people who were in debt due to the storm also stood up in a hurry and expressed their willingness to bring goods to the Huo family.
Qian Xiaoyu also stood up: "Huo Xi, Xiaoxia and I will also bring goods to you on our boat."
Mrs. Sun quickly glanced at Xiaoyu Xiaoxia.
She was thinking about finding some supplies to take to Huai'an. She didn't know what to buy, so just like the Huo family, she just bought some cloth and took it with her.
Unexpectedly, the eldest son actually offered to help the Huo family carry goods.
Qian Sanduo knew what she meant, so he pulled her and signaled her to stop talking.
Except for two or three companies, almost all the ships expressed their willingness to help the Huo family carry goods on their way out. Huo Xi hurriedly asked Yang Fu to register. Then he and Yang Fu boarded these people's ships one by one to check the space in their bilges.
Guess how much stuff it can hold.
Our ship is used to carry the fifty-three bolts of silk cloth, and the space in the bilge can hold thirty more bolts of cotton cloth. If a cabin can be left, more can be carried.
But it is not suitable to be exposed to the outside. It is better to install it in the bilge of each house.
Just be low-key and not attract attention.
She and Yang Fu checked out various ships and found that there were a total of twenty-three ships that could help her load goods. One family could help her bring at least ten pieces of cloth. In this case, at least three hundred pieces of cotton could be brought there.
Huai'an.
Today I spent forty taels to buy a hundred pieces of cotton cloth. My parents should have less than ten taels of silver left in their hands.
Next, we have to collect another 200 horses and spend 80 taels.
Her parents don't have enough money, how should she use those banknotes?
