Chapter 39

Chai Lin said: "It's not available yet, we need to wait for three to five days. However, the supply price of ordinary soap is less than [-] yuan, and the retail price is about [-] yuan. As for the high-end soap, the price is more expensive, and the delivery price is more than [-] yuan One box, the retail price is about [-] Wen. If Mr. Zeng is interested, you can talk to my shopkeeper Zhou in the village in a few days, and I will give you a state agency right then."

Chai Lin gave Zeng Mi five bars of soap as a gift and asked him to try it out before making a decision.

There was a loud voice coming from outside, Zeng Mi asked: "What's the sound outside, it seems that there are many people."

Chai Gang said: "That's the crowd looking at my owner's carriage."

Zeng Mi smiled and said: "There are carriages everywhere, Majiaji has a lot of carriages, it's strange why we only look at the owner of Chai Zhuang, I'll go and have a look too."

As the group of people came out, Zeng Mi saw the luxurious and beautiful four-wheeled carriage at a glance. There were two small wheels in the front and two large wheels in the back. The carriage was closed as a whole, with doors on both sides.

Zeng Mi couldn't help coming over to watch it carefully. The more he looked at it, the more he liked it. The wheels are so exquisite, and they are equipped with black rubber that has never been seen before.

Chai Lin pointed to the carriage and said, "Mr. Zeng, go up and try it out. This carriage is not a bad one. It runs with little bumps and is very comfortable."

"Then I'll try." Zeng Mi went up, opened the car door, and sat on the comfortable seat. It felt really good.The coachman pulled Zeng Mi out of the town and ran quickly. The rammed earth road seemed flat, but potholes were common, and the bumps were very small, but the inside of the car felt very little bumps.

Zeng Mi reached out his hand to check the car window, it turned out to be transparent crystal, the roof was lined with soft cloth, and the outside seemed to be made of thin steel plate.

"It's really comfortable, just a little motion sickness." This is Zeng Mi's evaluation after getting off the car.

"The national unified retail price of this car is 300 taels of silver. If you are an agent in Lingzhou, you can sell five cars a month, and the price will be [-] taels." Chai Lin said.

After hearing this, Zeng Mi was very moved. Even though the Zeng family is very rich, it is difficult to make money these days. The trip to sell donkeys is a profit of one tael per head, and the profit of a trip of several hundred miles is about 300 taels. Not counting the salaries of a group of more than a dozen people, if you encounter bandits and bandits and rob them of your property, the losses will be huge.The profit of this car is two hundred silver, which is not low. As for sales, it should not be a big problem. Although there are many poor people in Song Dynasty, there are also many rich people, and the biggest hobby of rich people is to save face.

Zeng Mi thought for a while, and said: "The matter of soap and carriage agency is very important. I have to go back and discuss it with my father. I also hope that Master Chai understands."

"Where does Mr. Zeng come from, such a big matter should be discussed." Chai Lin expressed his understanding.

Chai Lin sent some samples to Zeng Mi, but it was impossible to send them by horse-drawn carriage.Zeng Mi thought for a while and said, "This carriage is really comfortable, the owner can sell it to me, and we will report back to Zengtou City today."

"No problem, it's brand new, it just came here from Zhuangshang. If Mr. Zeng wants it, I'll give you 500 taels. When I become an agent in the future, I'll return the 200 taels to you."

Zeng Mi smiled and said: "Although the price is expensive, this carriage is worth 500 taels." Zeng Mi was also a rich man, so he immediately paid cash and handed over the carriage.

The two chatted happily, and Chai Lin hosted a banquet at noon to send off Zeng Mibuti.

Zeng Mi drank too much, and it was too late to stick out his tongue. He pulled Chailin and said, "Brother, don't worry, don't worry, I'll go back, discuss it, and come to order. When the time comes, we two brothers will not Don't get drunk."

"Okay, Brother Zeng, it's getting late, so I won't keep you guys here," Chai Lin said.

Zeng Mi got too drunk and stopped riding a horse. Two burly men helped him into the carriage, and a group of more than a dozen people went south to Zengtou City.

October [-]th is suitable for business opening.

Cangzhou City and Pegasus Car Co., Ltd. opened.

The six spacious fronts, especially the six fronts of his, are at the back. There is an open space of more than a hundred square meters in front of the door, and three luxury four-wheeled carriages are parked securely.

There are many ordinary people and merchants who come and go to watch the excitement, and everyone points and points.But few people went to ask the price, because there was no need to ask, the price of this kind of carriage was too expensive, and it was not affordable for ordinary people to use.

A dozen or so beggars came over and booed, shouting: "Boss, Gong Xi Fa Cai, business is booming."

There is a saying in the northern area that there are many beggars who come to the store when they open, and the business will definitely be booming when they come back, so the bosses are not disgusted with the beggars.

The Huazi also brought firecrackers, which were crackling for a while.

Zhou Fu said with a smile: "Thank you, folks, for your support. Please eat money and candy."

The man took out the water ladle, which contained candy cubes mixed with copper coins, raised them high and threw them out, scattering them all over the sky.

Surrounded by watching the lively people swarming up, very lively.

Some snatched three or five pennies more, one or two pennies less, and some snatched a few pieces of candy.

In a short while, the celebrities of the business world and the tycoons of the industry arrived.

"Hey, Mr. Xu, why are you here? Please come inside quickly." Zhou Fu invited Mr. Xu inside.Daguan Xu is the largest grain merchant in Cangzhou. He has four grain stores in the city. He is not young, almost fifty.Since I was a teenager, I have been riding a mule to sell grain and purchase grain everywhere. It is not easy to walk step by step.

Boss Xu said: "Who doesn't know the news that Pegasus is going to open these few days. With our relationship, I have to come to support you whether I buy or not."

"Welcome, welcome, serve tea." Zhou Fu arranged for the sale of tea.

Boss Xu sat down and rested for a while, and said: "Business Manager Zhou, you can arrange for a driver, and I will try the car. I have such legs. When I was young, I ran around and didn't feel it. Now that I am getting old, my legs will suffer from cold in winter. It hurts when the cold wind blows while riding a horse."

"Okay, no problem, just wait a moment." Zhou Fu immediately arranged for a coachman, harnessed two strong white horses, and went for a test drive.From the coachman to the horses, they are all professionally trained.

Boss Xu and an attendant got into the carriage, and the coachman jogged away with the carriage.

Boss Xu was very happy and said, "This car is still really comfortable, that's great. Driver, let's go for a run outside the city."

"Okay, no problem. Mr. Xu, please buckle up your seat belt." The driver said.

Regardless of whether it is a four-wheeled carriage, the safety settings are in place, and there are seat belts on the seats.

Boss Xu fastened his seat belt and sat comfortably on the chair. As soon as he left the city, the carriage accelerated.The wheels with rubber bearings run without any noise, and they are many times stronger than the wooden wheels.

During the morning, Zhou Fu received more than 20 customers in the store, ordered five carriages on the spot, and paid a deposit of [-] silver, and could pick up the carriages seven days later.

From the shopkeeper Zhou to the sales, I was very happy. Although the commission of the directly-operated store is not high, there is still a commission of one or two taels for the sale of a car.The tax bureaucrats were even happier, as they could collect a tax of 50 taels of silver for a car.

 Dear judges, if you pass by, if you have a recommendation ticket, please support it, thank you.
