After being surprised, Qi Chang and others began to look at the goods. After seeing many small ornaments, he suddenly said: "I heard that many such exquisite ornaments once appeared in Gezhou City. Could it be that Mr. Gu also sold them? "That's right!" Gu Yun nodded and admitted, and then said: "It was just a temporary test, and it was closed after only selling for less than a month. This time, I plan to cooperate with you for a long time. In terms of supply, not only There are seven or eight times more varieties than last time, and they are more refined and high-end." Before Qi Chang could say anything, a merchant next to him finally couldn't bear it when he heard that long-term cooperation was possible, and asked first: "Master Gu is planning to do so! How to cooperate with us? " "I just want to do the wholesale business, and I won't open a store. If you want to cooperate, just get the goods here!" "It's simple, but Sir, since we have a long-term cooperation, what should we do if other stores sell the same goods at a lower price when we are selling your goods on a consignment basis?" This businessman was very experienced and solved the problem of price war in one sentence. Gu Yun had already made arrangements for this: "I am taking a boutique route. The wholesale business I am talking about is not wholesale to everyone. How about this, you divide the 49 states in the world and one person is responsible for several states. , I only wholesale to you, and you only sell in those states. If you have your own stores in those states, then sell it yourself. If not, then wholesale to lower-level merchants in those states. . This will prevent everyone from competing with each other again!" Qi Chang felt that Gu Yun was right, and nodded and said: "Master Gu is right. Let's discuss an agreement and stipulate the specific matters. If anyone wants to violate it in the future, we will do it. Let¡¯s resist him together!¡± Gu Yun agreed: ¡°That¡¯s what Mr. Qi said, let¡¯s do it!¡± ¡°Okay, let¡¯s discuss it together!¡± Qi Chang greeted all the businessmen who came and started to discuss the details. Come. Since the businessmen who came this time were some of Qi Chang¡¯s friends, it didn¡¯t take much trouble to discuss it! In just over an hour, everyone discussed the specific agreement, and Gu Yun¡¯s first batch of provincial agents in Dashun were born. After negotiating an agreement, everyone discussed purchasing goods. However, Qi Chang and others brought mostly silver notes and only a small amount of gold notes and cash. In order to leave a good impression on everyone for the first time, Gu Yun held his nose and accepted it, but told them that they must bring gold next time. After wholesale a batch of goods, Gu Yun sent Qichang and others away, and then returned to Liujiazhuang. As soon as Gu Yun returned to the village, Liu Ruyan immediately summoned a group of core brothers and sisters to discuss in the meeting hall. Liu Ruyan was the first to speak. She named Wu Gang, "Well, Senior Brother Wu, please tell me about the recent recruitment of villagers first!" "Yes!" Wu Gang replied: "In the past six months or so, the Qinglong Department has recruited a total of There are 512 villagers, 276 have been trained, 73 have been eliminated, and 163 are still training! " "Well, you did a good job!" Liu Ruyan praised, and then urged: "But recruit villagers. The progress is going to be accelerated, and we will recruit six thousand people as soon as possible!" "There is no problem in speeding up the progress, but can we accommodate so many people?" Wu Gang asked doubtfully. Gu Yun had brewed several batches of wine, but the wine Sales haven't started yet, and now Liujiazhuang is sticking to its old bottom line. "Senior Brother Wu, don't worry. You can build the house while recruiting people, and you can go to Luozhou City to purchase daily necessities step by step. If you don't have enough silver, I can also put down 100,000 taels first. You can just recruit people without worries. The more the merrier! Also, Those who have been eliminated from the training can be placed in the winery first. The winery will soon be profitable, and it is imperative to open branches in other cities and towns! "The wine brewed by Gu Yun has not yet started to be sold. He has just left. The wine in the courtyard has been sold out, and the newly brewed wine will be on sale soon! "Well, Senior Brother Wu, since Junior Brother Gu said to put 100,000 taels in advance, you can rest assured!" After Liu Ruyan finished speaking, she named another senior sister, "Senior Sister Jiang, Senior Sister Ji, please tell us about the situation of the Suzaku Department. !¡± Senior Sister Jiang¡¯s name is Jiang Jie. She is a young woman in her mid-twenties. She looks very bold and is married to a hall leader of the Qinglong Tribe. Another senior sister is also the wife of a senior brother in the village. Her name is Ji Ting. She is about twenty-five or six years old and has a pretty appearance. Jiang Jie and Ji Ting looked at each other, and it was the elder Jiang Jiehui who reported: "Reporting to the village owner, due to the small number of people in the Suzaku Department, the current intelligence collection work is limited to Luozhou and a few nearby cities. And the orphans and The adoption of beggars has not made much progress. Luozhou City is relatively stable and there are not many orphans and beggars. We only accepted 39 people!" After hearing Jiang Jie's words, Gu Yun interjected: "I just got news that Weihe There were heavy floods in the summer and many fields were flooded. Now thatThere are a lot of refugees in Qingzhou, Xuzhou and Yangzhou. There is even a phenomenon of cannibalism. This is a good time for us to develop and grow! " Jiang Jie also nodded and said: "We have also received news that the refugees along the Wei River are spreading to the surrounding areas, but they have not yet spread to the boundaries of Luozhou City! "Gu Yun further said: "I suggest sending people to the disaster area to publicize it, and setting up a porridge shed outside the village, distributing warm clothes, attracting some refugees, and resettling them! As for the funding and food issues, leave them to me! " "Okay, with Junior Brother Gu, everyone can go ahead and do it! As long as we attract the refugees, we will try to recruit as many people as possible. The open space in front of the village can be opened into a residential area. After the refugees are settled, whether we recruit villagers or adopt orphans and beggars to train them, we can greatly speed up the process! "After Liu Ruyan finished speaking, she looked at Gu Yun again, meaning to ask him if he had anything to say! Gu Yun thought for a while and said: "Taking advantage of the large number of refugees, we will recruit a large number of villagers. In addition to training more than 5,000 people with weapons, we will In addition to the villagers who can fight, I also want the rest. So go ahead and recruit. You are not afraid of having too many people, but you are afraid of not having enough people! " "Okay, so be it! Liu Ruyan finished speaking, and finally said with a slightly red face: "Well, there is one more thing I want to inform everyone. Junior Brother Gu and I are planning to get engaged. The wedding date will be after my father's third anniversary. Let me inform everyone first!" " "This is real? "The senior brothers and sisters couldn't believe it, and couldn't help but look at Gu Yun. Gu Yun had only been in the village for two years. Many people were worried that Gu Yun's martial arts was not good enough and he would not be able to bring happiness to Liu Ruyan. " Do you think Gu¡¯s martial arts is not good enough? "When Gu Yun saw everyone's expressions, he knew he was suspected, and had to say seriously: "It's normal for senior brothers and sisters to be worried like this. Okay, then I will set up a ring in the school field and accept the challenge from all senior brothers! " "Junior Brother Gu" Wu Gang wanted to help. Liu Ruyan waved her hand and said, "Just do what Junior Brother Gu said! Well, in order to avoid a protracted battle in the arena, the senior brothers have chosen three representatives to fight one in the morning, one in the afternoon, and one in the evening tomorrow. As long as Junior Brother Gu wins two games, the engagement will be finalized! If Gu Yun loses two games, you know the result! " "I will obey the owner's instructions! "Many senior brothers who have a crush on Liu Ruyan naturally have no objection.
