The whole family wears it! Roll it up together! The envy of all the rich in Beijing
Chapter 167: Trading with the Kang Family
“Eight thousand taels at a time!
Eight thousand two times!
Eight thousand two or three times!
make a deal!
Congratulations to Room 2 for winning this Crane Longevity Painting! "
"Eight thousand taels to buy a pair of embroidery!
So rich!
But my sister's embroidery is worth a fortune!"
Bai Jin'an was so excited that it seemed as if she had embroidered the picture of crane and longevity herself.
"This is much more than what I earn in a year as an official!"
Bai Mengshang was also very jealous, but he was more happy.
This is his daughter!
My daughter is so awesome!
Not to mention Hong Tianqiao, whose eyes were full of pride.
Hong Wenchu and Hong Wenyuan also admired and envied him.
Although the first item was worth 12,000 taels, it belonged to someone else. This 8,000 tael screen was embroidered by their cousin!
What an honor!
"Dad, don't be blindly envious, your status and position cannot be bought with money.
People envy you, but they can’t envy you as much as they do.”
Bai Jintong was so excited as she spoke that she wanted to run down and see who was so discerning and rich.
She couldn't wait to get her own money, which was the first huge sum of money she had earned!
I originally wanted to ask the attendant Kang Yuanchun where he was, but then I thought about how he had to preside over the auction and other matters. If I called him, he would definitely come no matter how busy he was, but it would only delay his work, so I decided to hold back.
After the auction is over, he will eventually come and give the money to himself.
Let’s talk about it then.
“Hahaha…our whole family is awesome!”
Bai Mengshang felt very relieved after hearing his daughter's words.
When they were about to look at the next item, Kang Yuanchun came over from a special alley with his men, followed by a servant holding a tray of banknotes.
As soon as Kang Yuanchun entered the room, he first glanced at his fiancée, but he didn't dare to look at her for too long. After all, he was in front of their elders, and if he looked at her too long, he would appear frivolous.
And there is also his fiancée's younger brother. Although he has not been dissatisfied since the engagement, he cannot hide the murderous look in his brother-in-law's eyes when he looks at him. He is still very polite.
But Hong Wenchu had already noticed Kang Yuanchun's gaze and blushed a little.
The Bai family was not blind, but seeing that he liked Hong Wenchu so much and still remembered to behave politely in front of others, the whole family was happy to see it happen.
This shows that he cares about Hong Wenchu and that he made the right choice for this marriage.
"uncle and auntie."
Kang Yuanchun called for help first, and the servant behind him came forward with a tray.
"This is the auction money for Miss Bai's Crane Longevity Painting. Please keep it for yourself, Miss Bai."
"Thank you, Mr. Kang!
But don't rush to collect this money.
Since Master Kang's family is an imperial merchant, they should be involved in all kinds of business, right?"
Bai Jintong had not thought of this before, thinking that it would be better to give the eight thousand taels to his own people instead of using it to buy supplies from others.
And our own people will not betray us.
“Yes, if Miss Bai wants something, just tell me.
Even if my family doesn’t have it, I know a lot of people who do business, and I should be able to buy what Miss Bai wants.”
Who is Kang Yuanchun?
Although he loved reading since he was a child and was determined to pass the imperial examination and become an official, he was also well versed in business and social skills due to the influence of his surroundings.
As soon as I heard Bai Jintong ask this, I knew she must want to buy something.
Originally, he wanted to say that if he wanted something, as long as the Kang family had it, he could just say a word and the Kang family would deliver it to his door. But he knew that Lord Bai, or rather, the entire Bai family, would not like that, so he changed his tone at the last moment.
"Do you have any food to sell?"
"Yes, could it be that Miss Bai wants to use all the eight thousand taels of silver to buy food?"
Kang Yuanchun is not only perceptive, but also smart.
The Kang family happened to have a large granary with a total of 60,000 shi of grain.
"Yes, any kind of food will do."
"We have food now, but if you want something, there may not be enough. You should also know that the bulk of Longguo's food comes from Yunguo selling it to Longguo.
Yun Country is not selling grain to Long Country right now, so Long Country’s grain supply is also quite tight right now, so you can stock up more at home.”
Kang Yuanchun felt that the Bai family still had a strong sense of crisis.
Food prices are rising day by day right now. Now is definitely not the highest time, but it can be said to be the lowest time.
If Yun Kingdom continues to stop selling grain to Long Kingdom, the price of Long Kingdom's grain will become more and more expensive in the future.
"Do you want to buy just one type, or a variety of combinations?"
When Bai Jintong saw Kang Yuanchun like this, she knew that their family should have it.
"Well, let's start with one. Do you have rice with husks?"
Bai Jintong thought it would be better to buy the ones with shells, so that they can be used as seeds and can be preserved for a longer time.
When you want to eat at home, you can grind the rice bran and feed the livestock.
And buying rice with shells is much cheaper than buying rice directly.
Bai Jintong thought that she bought a lot and might have to import other large goods from the Kang family in the future, so she used Zhuangzi as a shield again.
"You should also know that my family bought a large farm some time ago, and we raise a lot of livestock on it. I bought the shells because I thought the shells could be used to feed the livestock."
Kang Yuanchun nodded, this was true.
"Okay, husked millet is three cents a pound, but I'm not sure if every grain has rice in it, there are some with empty husks."
Kang Yuanchun was talking about the purchase price and had no intention of making money from the Bai family.
However, he did not say that this was the purchase price. Anyway, after the Bai family bought it, they naturally knew that he was giving the purchase price.
He said he didn't want money, but the thing cost eight thousand taels. He could afford to give it away for this little money, but the Bai family would definitely not accept it.
So he gave a purchase price because they were relatives.
Bai Jintong didn't know at first, but since the system asked her to stock up on supplies, she went to the grain stores on the street to check, so of course she knew the prices.
The husked rice sold in the shop was sold at five cents per pound at the worst quality, and it had a lot of empty husks in it, accounting for about one-tenth of the total.
“Mr. Kang, I trust you to buy from your family, but I don’t want your family to make a loss.
To tell you the truth, I may not buy it just this time, and I may need food continuously in the future.
You've been doing too many business deals at a loss, and I feel bad for taking advantage of you, but you can't always be at a loss, right?
I know you don't want to make money from me, but I can't let you lose money. You have to at least sell it to break even!
Otherwise I would buy it from someone else. I am embarrassed to buy it from you."
No one else in the Bai family interrupted and let the two talk on their own. They were looking at the new items being auctioned outside and were enjoying the look very much.
When Kang Yuanchun saw that the elders of the Bai family were handing over such a big matter to a little girl, he thought it was agreed in advance.
It seems that he was too suspicious. The girl is beautiful and intelligent.
Three cents is indeed the purchase price, but if we add the labor and transportation losses into the pure purchase price, four cents per pound would be needed to break even.
"Okay, four cents a pound.
There is no need to say more, Miss Bai. I feel uneasy if I make money from you. Just like you said, you need to protect your capital. You don't need to buy from others. Many of them are unscrupulous. If you don't know when you buy, it is possible that half of the bag will be empty shells.
You should buy it from me.”
"make a deal!"
