Three Kingdoms: Liu Daer Was Forced Out of the Mountain at the Beginning - Chapter 1375
At this time, the nobles in Youzhou were ready to sell soap.
Different from what Shopkeeper Zhou did, the nobles in Youzhou would definitely not sell the soap in large quantities to Kebineng or Budugen in order to make the most profit.
The first customer they chose was the Xianbei merchants in the mutual market.
Even if the soap is sold directly to Xianbei tribal leaders or wealthy households, the profit will be higher, but because of language and trust issues, it is still convenient to sell it to Xianbei businessmen.
In the next few days, the Xianbei merchants in the mutual market have all learned that there are a lot of soaps on the Youzhou gentry, and they are about to start selling them.
Because the soaps that Ke Bineng and Bu Dugen bought from shopkeeper Zhou have not yet circulated in Xianbei, Xianbei merchants in the mutual market were very excited after learning the news.
This is a great opportunity to make a fortune!
At the same time, Xiao Cai and other craftsmen who were undercover in the Youzhou soap workshop continued to pass on the movements of the nobles to the shopkeeper Zhou.
Shopkeeper Zhou, who had already emptied all the soaps in his hands, was now waiting for this batch of soaps to circulate in Xianbei.
After all, the time when he sold soap was too close to the time when the nobles in Youzhou sold soap.
Only after this batch of soap is circulated in Xianbei, will the soap produced by the nobles in Youzhou be difficult to sell.
Shopkeeper Zhou also asked his Xianbei friends to help him pay attention to the sales of this batch of soaps.
According to the news of the shopkeeper Zhou’s friends in Xianbei, the batch of soaps he sold to Kebineng and Budugen have already started to be sold in Xianbei, and Xianbei merchants in the mutual market will also know about it soon.
The Youzhou nobles, who were confident and ready to make a fortune, were enthusiastically sought after by the Xianbei merchants at first.
Some Xianbei merchants have even paid a deposit for the purchase of soap, just hoping that they can buy more soap.
Today’s Youzhou nobility finally has a feeling of raising their eyebrows in front of the Xianbei people.
Once upon a time, how did the Xianbei people come and beg them?
Thank goodness for not looting their belongings!
The night before the Youzhou nobles were about to officially start selling soap to Xianbei, they all came to the residence of the prefect, Liu Yan.
“I heard that the Xianbei merchants are very fond of the soaps we produce in the past two days. Some Xianbei merchants have already ordered some of the soaps?”
Inside the mansion, Liu Yan asked the Youzhou nobles.
“Prefect, half of our 10,000 bars of soap are already booked!”
“Those merchants in Xianbei were afraid that they would buy less, and many of them paid us a deposit. We received more than three thousand taels for the deposit alone, hahaha!”
“The official sale will start tomorrow, and these soaps are estimated to be sold out in one day!”
“Prefect, we will build more soap workshops in the future. There are hundreds of thousands of people in Xianbei, enough for us to earn a lot of money.”
After hearing the words, the Youzhou nobles said to Liu Yan one after another, with obvious smiles on their faces.
Liu Yan was also full of smiles after hearing this.
The situation is very good, and I will have a large amount of money soon, which is really a good thing!
Afterwards, Liu Yan and the Youzhou gentry feasted and celebrated at the mansion, and the drunken gentry did not leave Liu Yan’s mansion until the middle of the night.
The next morning, the Youzhou nobles who waited for the Xianbei merchants who had paid the deposit to come and pick up the goods, waited left and right but no one came.
“What’s happening here?”
“These Xianbei merchants were afraid that they would buy less yesterday. Why is there no one to pick up the goods today?”
At the door of a warehouse full of soap, a Youzhou nobleman couldn’t help asking the craftsman beside him.
This craftsman is Hanzhong undercover Xiao Cai.
“Don’t worry, sir. It is estimated that the Xianbei merchants are still on the way. After all, there is still a long way to go from the mutual market to the warehouse.”
Xiao Cai heard the words to the Youzhou nobility.
However, Xiao Cai’s heart is already blooming, it seems that the action of the shopkeeper Zhou should be a success.
……
At the mutual market place, a group of Xianbei businessmen were gathered to discuss something.
“There is actually a large number of soaps for sale at King Khan?”
“What? There are 10,000 bars of soap!”
“The price is still 70% of the market price? How can it be so low?!”
After two days, these Xianbei merchants who had been in the mutual market finally learned that Ke Bineng and Bu Dugen had purchased a large amount of soap from the hand of the shopkeeper Zhou.
Now Xianbei has set off a frenzy to buy soap.
If it weren’t for these Xianbei merchants in the mutual market who learned the news in time, they would have lost a lot of money to buy soap from the nobles in Youzhou.
“How should this be done? I have already paid the deposit to the Youzhou nobility!”
“Yes, yes, I paid a deposit of one hundred taels of silver just to buy fifty pieces of soap!”
“The price of the nobles in Youzhou is 30% higher than that sold by King Khan, but King Khan sold it to us for 70% of the price. If we take it to each tribe, at least we can earn another 20%!”
“You don’t need the deposit, you can’t make it.”
Soon, the Xianbei merchants in the mutual market reached a consensus that if they bought soap from the nobles of Youzhou, not only the cost would be higher, but the profit would also be lower.
And a well-informed Xianbei businessman told everyone that this batch of soap was delivered directly from Hanzhong. UU reading www.uukanshu.com
The quality is definitely better than that produced in Youzhou!
Lower prices, better quality, and more profit!
The Xianbei merchants naturally gave up the soap produced in Youzhou and returned to Xianbei, where they bought the soap from Kebineng and Budugen and sold it to the tribe.
The morning time passed quickly, and the soap rush that the merchants in Youzhou had expected did not happen.
Every nobleman in Youzhou who was waiting outside the warehouse for Xianbei merchants to pick up the goods had already noticed something was wrong at this time.
So these Youzhou nobles went to the mutual market in person, wanting to find out the Xianbei merchants, especially the Xianbei merchants who had paid the deposit.

After coming to the mutual market by coincidence, the nobles of Youzhou found that most of the Xianbei merchants were no longer here.
“what is happening?”
All the Youzhou nobles present were a little stunned.
Then a Youzhou nobleman came to the Xianbei merchant who was still selling fur and asked him about it.
The Xianbei businessman’s answer made all the Youzhou nobles who were present felt the world spinning.
“They all went back to the tribe, because King Khan is also selling soap. The price is 70% of the market price. The soap is still delivered from Hanzhong. I heard that there are a lot of them, at least 10,000.”
The Xianbei businessman who sold fur finished talking and began to sell his own fur, but no Youzhou nobles were in the mood to pay attention to him…Click to download this site APP, massive novels, free to read!
