And such a large weaving workshop was not under operation, so it was abolished!
Once the workers left, it was not easy to gather together again.
The acquisition of Zhao Zhai and Zhao Ye was not smooth. The silk weaving industry in Suzhou and Huzhou is also very developed. Every year, the local supply of silk is in short supply. Where can there be excess to sell to other places?
If foreign merchants came to buy a small amount, it would be fine, and they could pick up some leaks and buy some, but one shot would be 100,000 taels of silver, which is 2.56 million jin.
How could it be possible to acquire so much?
When they bought less than 10,000 catties, they attracted the attention of several leading merchants in the local silk weaving industry.
They were very angry, thinking that Mr. Zhao was here to disrupt the local market on purpose.
Then they joined forces to put pressure on them to drive them away!
Zhao Ye was still a sensible person. Qianglong didn't press down on the ground and snakes. He apologized, and left Suzhou with a good voice and more than 8,000 catties of silk.
He knew in his heart that even if he stayed longer, he would not be able to acquire it.
The big local merchants have already spoken, and even if they don't leave, they will not be able to buy another silk.
No silkworm farmer would offend the local outfit and choose to sell it to himself.
It is not bad to be able to go back smoothly with more than 8,000 catties of silk.
In the end, he thought things were too simple.
This matter is too urgent, there is no room for turning around.
What Zhao Zhai encountered in Huzhou was similar to him. Zhao Zhai received more silk than he did, and he was chased away when he bought nearly 20,000 catties.
However, Zhao Zhai was always short-tempered, so how could he be willing to be driven away like this?
If Qin shi encounters such a thing, he must have the same idea as him, that is: I am spending money to do business, and I am not buying or selling by force, let alone stealing, why not let me buy it?
As a result, Zhao Zhai was mixed up by a few hooligans during the acquisition, and then he was beaten by someone with a sack.
Zhao Zhai groaned and cursed in the inn in pain, and was even more unwilling to back down: won't you let me buy it? I want to buy it! If you don’t steal, don’t rob, and be upright, why can’t you buy it?
Zhao Zhai ordered people to continue to buy, and ordered that they can increase the price!
He doesn't believe it anymore, there are still people who can't get along with Yin Zi?
As a result...he was miserable!
Not only was a single silk no longer available for purchase, but he was also seduced by a trap and cheated out more than 50,000 taels of silver! In the end, I returned to Yangzhou City in despair...
Zhao Mu almost died of anger!
Zhao Ye was fine too Although the amount of silk recovered was small, it was actually within his expectations.
How can it be so easy to go to other places to acquire such a large amount of silk?
The silk industry in the south of the Yangtze River is well-developed. In any city, silk is in short supply. Basically, there is only enough for the local silk industry. How can it be supplied to other places in large quantities?
But Zhao Zhai's bastard, although he recovered more than 10,000 catties of silk, he lost more than 50,000 silver. This account is a loss!
And because of the lack of silk, the weaving workshop was forced to stop production after a few days!
At that time, either the workers will be supported by the white-haired wages, or they will have to be fired.
And not being able to deliver on time because of discontinued production is a bigger problem!
For the Zhao family's little property, they have to pay for it all!
Zhao Mu was helpless, so he pinched his nose and went to Zheng's Mulberry Garden.
