Chapter 243 Sun Qiu: Nephew Jiang, I have a good news!
"Everyone, the head of this family called you here today because I have something good to tell you!"
Sun Qiu looked at the shopkeepers and said proudly.
"Good thing!?"
When the shopkeepers heard what Sun Qiu said, they were all stunned!
Given the current situation of the Sun family, can anything good happen?
Is Sun Qiu kidding?
"Haha, everyone, I just received a big business deal, charcoal worth 500,000 taels of silver. What do you think... is this a good thing?!" Sun Qiu looked at everyone and smiled faintly.
"What!?"
"Five hundred thousand taels!?"
"No way!"
When everyone heard what Sun Qiu said, they were all dumbfounded!
That’s five hundred thousand taels!
Even if the Sun family controlled the entire charcoal business in Luzhou County, it would only make 70,000 to 80,000 taels a year!
Now...now a business deal is worth five hundred thousand taels!
This...how is this possible! ?
"Haha, you don't have to doubt it, this business is absolutely reliable, but the 500,000 charcoal needs to be collected within a month. I wonder... do you have any good ideas?"
Sun Qiu looked at everyone's shocked expressions and became even more proud.
Five hundred thousand taels!
His Sun family's assets are only about 500,000 taels!
"Master, if we were to collect goods from all over the country now, it would take at least a month and a half, or even a month to collect 500,000 taels of goods... It would definitely be too late!"
"Yes, Patriarch, the imperial court may also need charcoal now. If we sell all the charcoal, what should we do if the imperial court comes to us?"
"Homeowner..."
The shopkeepers all spoke at once, and their meaning was very simple, that is, it was impossible for the Sun family to gather so much charcoal within a month.
……
Sun Qiu looked at the worried faces of the crowd and laughed again: "Haha, I know that my Sun family alone cannot come up with the money in a month, but...what if my Sun family only needs to provide 100,000 taels of goods?"
"This……"
All the shopkeepers were stunned.
"Master, this is definitely no problem, but the remaining 400,000 taels of goods..."
Everyone looked at Sun Qiu with confusion.
Didn’t Sun Qiu just say he wanted goods worth 500,000?
Now, why does it only cost 100,000?
How much is it?
Sun Qiu saw the confusion of the crowd and said with a faint smile: "It would be difficult for my Sun family to collect all the goods worth 500,000, so I decided that we will collect 100,000 of them by ourselves, and buy the remaining 300,000 from several nearby counties. As for the last 100,000..."
"I want to buy honeycomb charcoal from Jiang Chen!"
"What!?"
When the shopkeepers heard this, they were even more shocked!
Find Jiang Chen to buy honeycomb charcoal! ?
That...that's honeycomb charcoal worth one hundred thousand taels of silver!
Isn't this helping Jiang Chen?
But Sun Qiu smiled faintly and said, "My guest is quite special. He only wants charcoal fire and doesn't care too much whether it is honeycomb charcoal or ordinary charcoal!"
"So, if we use honeycomb charcoal, then... we will definitely make a lot of money!"
"hiss!"
When everyone heard what Sun Qiu said, they all took a deep breath!
Honeycomb charcoal is half the price of ordinary charcoal. If they use honeycomb charcoal instead of charcoal, they can really make a lot of money!
But is this really possible?
Let’s not talk about whether the guest would agree, even Jiang Chen…
Sun Qiu saw everyone's worry and said calmly: "Jiang Chen will definitely agree!"
"With such huge profits, I don't believe he wouldn't be tempted!"
……
After Sun Qiu finished explaining things to his shopkeeper, he personally led people to Jiang Chen's residence.
At this time, Jiang Chen was leisurely basking in the sun in the yard.
Now that Sun Yaozu and Xue Bin have been dealt with, Jiang Chen feels a lot more relaxed.
But at this moment, the old guard at the gate walked in.
"Sir, Sun Qiu is here! He wants to see you!"
"Sun Qiu?"
Jiang Chen was slightly startled.
"How many people did he bring?"
"There are only two guards!" the old soldier said respectfully.
"Only two guards?"
Jiang Chen frowned slightly.
With only two guards, they shouldn't be here to cause trouble, so...
When Jiang Chen thought of this, his eyes suddenly lit up!
"Let him in!"
"Yes!"
Following Jiang Chen's order, Sun Qiu quickly walked in!
"Nephew Jiang! Long time no see!"
Sun Qiu saw Jiang Chen and greeted him with a smile.
When Jiang Chen saw Sun Qiu's smiling face, he also smiled.
"Patriarch Sun is such a rare guest. I wonder what advice he has for you today?"
"Hahaha, nephew Jiang, I came here today to bring you a deal. I just don't know if you can take it!" Sun Qiu said with a big laugh.
"Oh? Any business?"
Jiang Chen pretended to be thinking.
"Not bad!"
Sun Qiu nodded and said, "Nephew Jiang, I want to buy 50,000 taels of honeycomb charcoal from you. I wonder if you have enough goods?"
Sun Qiu said this, looking at Jiang Chen with a smug look on his face.
At the beginning, Jiang Chen chose to cooperate with Xue Wenyan instead of him.
Now, let Jiang Chen know how powerful he is!
……
"Fifty thousand taels of goods!?"
Jiang Chen acted as if he was extremely shocked!
But he couldn't help sneering in his heart!
He guessed it right!
This Sun Qiu really came to him to buy honeycomb charcoal!
It seems that the people he arranged have scared Sun Qiu!
Sun Qiu asked him to buy 50,000 taels of honeycomb charcoal. He must want to take the opportunity to make a fortune!
But if Sun Qiu knew that all this was his plan, I wonder... what would Sun Qiu become!
"Why? Nephew Jiang can't produce goods worth 50,000 taels?"
Sun Qiu became even more proud when he saw Jiang Chen's "shocked" look.
When Jiang Chen saw Sun Qiu like this, he couldn't help sneering in his heart!
However, he pretended to be in a difficult situation: "Master Sun, I have goods worth 50,000 taels, but it will take time to transport, probably ten days!"
"Besides, the transportation fee is quite high. I..."
"I can pay you first, but you must ensure that the goods arrive within ten days!"
"How is it?" Sun Qiu said with a proud look on his face.
"This... is of course no problem!"
"Come on! Uncle Sun, let's sign the document!"
"If my goods cannot be delivered within ten days, I will give you double compensation!"
"But, Uncle Sun, if you regret and want to return the goods in the future, you have to pay me double compensation!"
"How?" Jiang Chen said excitedly.
"No problem! It's settled!"
Sun Qiu agreed without hesitation.
The two quickly signed the contract.
After signing the contract, Sun Qiu left triumphantly.
In his opinion, he made a lot of money this time!
But after Sun Qiu left, Jiang Chen couldn't hold back his smile anymore!
"Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha!"
"Sun Qiu, Sun Qiu, you are so silly and cute!"
"Hahaha!"
Jiang Chen really didn't expect that Sun Qiu was so easy to deceive!
Just as Jiang Chen was excited, the gatekeeper came to the yard again and brought an invitation!
