Chapter 1281: No Way to Think
Moreover, such a large weaving workshop would be ruined if it did not operate at full capacity!
Once the workers left, it became difficult to get together again.
Zhao Zhai and Zhao Ye's acquisition journey was not smooth. The silk weaving industry in Suzhou and Huzhou was also very developed. Every year, the local silk was in short supply. How could they get any extra silk to sell to other places?
It would be fine if merchants from other places came to purchase a small amount, and they could buy some at a discount, but if they came with a purchase of 100,000 taels of silver, that would be 250,000 to 260,000 kilograms.
How is it possible to acquire so much?
When they had purchased less than 10,000 kilograms, they attracted the attention of several leading merchants in the local silk industry.
They were very angry and thought that Mr. Zhao had come here deliberately to disrupt the local market.
Then they united to put pressure on them and drove them away!
Zhao Ye was a sensible man. He knew that a strong dragon could not defeat a local snake, so he apologized, said nice things, and left Suzhou in a good mood with the more than 8,000 kilograms of silk he had received.
He knew in his heart that even if he stayed any longer, he would not be able to acquire it.
Several big local merchants have already said that even if I don't leave, I won't be able to buy any more silk.
No mulberry silk farmer would offend the local business owners and choose to sell to themselves.
It was already good enough to be able to bring back more than 8,000 kilograms of silk safely.
Ultimately, he was thinking things too simply.
This matter is too urgent and there is no room for turning back.
What Zhao Zhai encountered in Huzhou was similar to what he encountered. Zhao Zhai received more silk than him, and was only driven away when he had purchased nearly 20,000 kilograms.
However, Zhao Zhai had a bad temper to begin with, so how could he be willing to be driven away like that?
If Qin encountered such a thing, she would definitely have the same idea as him, that is: I am spending money to do business, I am not forcing anyone to buy or sell, nor am I stealing, why don't you let me buy?
The result was that Zhao Zhai was troubled by a few hooligans during the acquisition, and was later put in a sack and beaten up.
Zhao Zhai was so angry that he groaned and cursed in the inn, and he refused to back down: You won't let me buy it? I want to buy it! I didn't steal or rob, and it's fair and square, so why can't I buy it?
Zhao Zhai ordered his people to continue buying, and also said that they could increase the price!
He just didn't believe it. Could there be anyone who couldn't get along with money?
As a result, he suffered miserably!
Not only could he not buy a single strand of silk, but he was also tricked into paying more than 50,000 taels of silver! He returned to Yangzhou City in disgrace.
Zhao Mu was almost angry to death!
It was okay for Zhao Ye, although the amount of silk recovered was small, but this was actually within his expectations.
How could it be so easy to purchase such a large amount of silk from other places?
The silk weaving industry is well developed in the Jiangnan area, and silk is a scarce commodity in every city. The silk is basically only enough for the local silk weaving industry. How could it be possible to supply it in large quantities to other places?
But although that bastard Zhao Zhai recovered more than 10,000 kilograms of silk, he lost more than 50,000 silver coins. When the account was calculated, he was at a loss!
However, due to the lack of silk, the weaving workshop was forced to stop production within a few days!
At that time, you will either have to pay the workers for nothing or fire them.
And the inability to deliver on time due to production suspension is an even bigger problem!
The Zhao family's little property must be compensated in full!
Zhao Mu had no choice but to go to Zheng's mulberry garden with a pinch of his nose.
