Zheng Chenggong thought for a long time and said with a smile: "As far as I know, Su Gang only sells three or two cents per kilogram in Wuhu."

Qin Zhao's eyes lit up when he heard Zheng Chenggong's words.

This was the chaotic era of the 17th year of Chongzhen, and the roads in various places were not peaceful. Sugang was produced in Jiangnan and sold to Guangzhou, and it was necessary to take a boat. There was a risk of encountering pirates or storms along the way. Therefore, Sugang, which was sold at three or two cents to Guangzhou, rose to seven or two cents per kilogram.

With this price, the supply volume is still very small, and the price will increase as soon as someone purchases on a large scale.

Qin Zhao bowed and said, "I don't know that Su Gang was so cheap in Wuhu. This time, the Fourth Master really wanted to make the decision and sell Su Gang directly from Wuhu on a boat!"

Zheng Chenggong gently fiddled with the tea leaves with the lid of the teacup, but did not immediately answer Qin Zhao.

After a long time, he asked, "How much Su Gang Brother Qin wants in a month?"

Qin Zhao replied: "According to these ten days, it costs at least 500 kilograms a month."

Zheng Chenggong smiled and said, "How can five hundred kilograms be enough? I still have the heart to sell your spring soft chair to Fujian, western Guangdong and even south of the Yangtze River. Not to mention 500 kilograms a month, even one thousand kilograms are not enough for you."

Hearing Zheng Chenggong's words, Qin Zhao said in surprise: "The Fourth Master has made such a big plan for me?"

Qin Youli asked in surprise: "Second Master has seen the soft chairs we sell?"

Zheng Chenggong smiled and said, "Although my Zheng family has not bought a soft chair yet, other people who have soft chairs are full of guests these days. Naturally, I went to several families to walk around and see it."

Zheng Chenggong blew the tea leaves and said lightly: "It's really comfortable."

Zheng Chenggong stopped talking and left the time to imagine the future for Qin Zhao.

Qin Zhao and Qin Youli looked at each other, and their hearts gradually became warm.

The business prospects described by Zheng Chenggong are really tempting. If Zheng Chenggong buys sofas in large quantities with Qin Zhao, how many sofas can be sold for a month with the width of the Zheng family's channel? I'm afraid that one thousand can't be stopped? Even if the Zheng family wants to lower the price of the sofa, Qin Zhao can still make a fortune.

Zheng Chenggong smiled and said, "The springs you make are indeed some methods. The quality of the springs is much better than the quality made by my blacksmith. If it weren't for your method of making springs, I would have made a soft chair by myself, without your use of this."

After the spring steel is bent into a spring, it must be quenched, tempered, heated and removed stress. This series of complex processes has countless details, and the difference is a thousand miles away, which is highly confidential by Qin Zhao. At present, only three blacksmiths each know one of the steps, and the probability of leaking is very low. Even Zheng Chenggong cannot steal this commercial secret worth a thousand gold.

Unless Zheng Zhilong leads his troops to break through the Chiyun Peak.

However, the confidentiality of heat treatment steps is on the one hand, and on the other hand, if the experienced master blacksmith can find a heat treatment method to improve the toughness of spring steel if he devotes himself to research. Even if the effect may not be as good as the method brought by Qin Zhao from later generations, Su Gang can also make sofa springs with the "tool steel" Su Gang. The only thing to consider here is time. It takes time for the master to study heat treatment skills.

When the master was studying his skills, Qin Zhao had already made a lot of money.

It is really easy to copy sofas. Doing sofa transactions is a race against time and you have to make quick money.

In addition, we must establish a reputation and brand. After other people’s counterfeiting technology is developed, Qin Zhao will then brand sales as the pioneer of spring soft chairs and take the high-end route.

If Zheng Chenggong is willing to purchase a large amount of money in a short period of time, it is undoubtedly the best.

Qin Zhao bowed and said, "Since the Fourth Master is willing to sell the sofa we wait for, just say the price. If we can do it, we will do it."

Zheng Chenggong smiled and said, "Ten taels of silver per!"

Qin Zhao shouted loudly: "The Fourth Master is kidding. I will lose ten taels of silver in the Qin family. At least thirteen taels of silver per, I will make a profit."

Zheng Chenggong laughed and said with a smile: "Your store sold 14 taels of silver for the first day, and also gave a cushion of water and foam on foot. The young master of the Liu family took apart a soft chair when I was in front of me, and I waited to scale how much Sugang there was in it! I think as long as the price was more than ten taels, you would make a profit!"

Qin Zhao looked at Zheng Chenggong and was speechless.

This marine merchant’s intelligence network is really amazing. In just a few days, he has put out his sofa and studied the structure with others.

"The Fourth Master is joking. Thirteen taels of silver are really worth less."

Zheng Chenggong smiled slightly, gently fiddled with the tea leaves with the lid, and did not rush to answer.

The two of them communicated with each other and slowly figured out the other's trump card. Qin Zhao was more anxious about this business, because it was very important to sell more sofas while the imitators had not yet emerged. For the Zheng family, as long as the transportation and sales channels are in their own hands, it is the same whether it is buying sofas with Qin Zhao or buying sofas with future imitators.

In the end, Qin Zhao had no choice but to give in, and gave in to twelve taels of silver, and then he stopped giving in.

A business with a cost of ten taels of silver is only two taels of profit. Qin Zhao also masters the secret recipe for heat treatment. Qin Zhao feels that he should make these two taels of silver.

Zheng Chenggong saw that Qin Zhao had bitten to death and knew that if he continued to kill him, Qin Zhao would turn against him.

After thinking about it, Zheng Chenggong smiled and said, "Brother Qin Zhao, I'll go to Wuhu to buy Sugang for you. If you sell it, the price of 7 taels of silver per pound is two cents of silver lower than in the market."

Qin Zhao wiped the cold sweat from the price-selling price and said, "Fourth Master, if you are willing to sell Su Gang to me for six taels of silver per pound, I will give you 20% of the dry shares of my spring soft chair!"

Hearing Qin Zhao's words, Zheng Chenggong's eyes opened.

He looked at the shopkeeper on his right hand. The shopkeeper immediately took out a plan and started to play. After knocking it for a long time, the shopkeeper leaned into Zheng Chenggong's ear and whispered: "If the Fourth Master bought more than 6,000 sofas from the Qin family every month, Brother Qin could make more money through this proposal. If less than 6,000 yuan, it would be unprofitable for Brother Qin to follow this proposal."

Zheng Chenggong thought about it for a while and felt that although this soft chair was very popular, it was extremely difficult to sell 6,000 pieces per month.

Zheng Chenggong understood that Qin Zhao was trying to win over him to do business together.

Although the accounts are in the hands of Qin Zhao, the Zheng family can use estimation to calculate the approximate monthly sales volume. If Qin Zhao gives the stock, he will really give Zheng Chenggong money in the future.

With a sneer, Zheng Chenggong said, "What a young man, so bold."

Qin Zhao did not answer this sentence.

Zheng Chenggong smiled and said, "If Brother Qin is so generous, he will suffer a loss."

Qin Zhao replied: "I entered the Zheng family's gate and was afraid that I could suffer no losses. Today I suffered a small loss, and I will get a partner in the future."

Zheng Chenggong laughed when he heard this: "Okay, the word "partner" is well said! In this world, the most difficult thing is the word "partner". With a partner, why worry about not being able to make money? I took over 20% of Brother Qin's shareholding and sold Su Gang to the Qin family at a price of 6 taels of silver per kilogram!"
