"Thank you Madam Lu. It's just that you won't receive any reward for your efforts. The four shops in Jixian County are probably worth thousands of dollars. I wonder if Madam needs my help in any way?"

Ma Qiang looked at Lu Ning. Lu Ning lowered his head and smiled, and then praised, "What are you calling Mrs. Lu? This is no longer the case? If the little immortal master doesn't dislike her, how about you and I calling her brother and sister?"

Ma Qiang looked at the injuries on Zhang Sheng's face and took a breath. With a wife like this, it was normal to be suppressed.

"Then...what does sister need?"

"Sister, I don't want anything else. I just want to look at the toothbrushes. The toothpaste business is quite big. Your brother has no future as a county captain. Brother Xianshi, please see if you can help your brother. Share some toothbrushes and toothpaste.

Your brother?

Don't worry, Brother Xianshi, we will definitely not sell it in Ji County. We also have shops in Changping County, so I guarantee that Brother Xianshi will only make more money."

"This?" Zhang Sheng didn't expect that his wife would actually fall in love with this deal, and he was a little surprised for a moment.

"Madam, is this...?"

"listen to me!"

“Ah yo!!”

Ma Qiang didn't care whether Zhang Sheng had suffered a new injury or not, he quickly weighed it in his mind.

His own toothbrushes, toothpaste and other daily chemical products can definitely support a big family business, but as a later generation, he knows better that one cannot make a fortune. Even if he has Dasongcun and Nanlou, in Han Dynasty

It's also too thin.

Zhang Sheng is from the Zhang family in Yuyang, and Lu Ning is from the Lu family in Zhuojun. These two families are the largest families in the area. If they are relied on, they will be able to quickly open up business routes throughout Youzhou.

If it was a time of peace, he could slowly develop his own business, but the Yellow Turban Rebellion was just around the corner, so he should find a way to hoard money and food as quickly as possible to prevent major changes.

It sounds complicated, but in fact, it only took a few seconds for Ma Qiang to make a decision.

Ma Qiang took the kettle and licked some water for Lu Ning, and then said with a smile, "Since sister said this, I will also tell the truth. I have told Brother Zhang before that I am not an immortal master, but I know some things that outsiders don't know."

Just a matter.

Since I took out toothbrushes, toothpaste and other items, I hope that people all over the world can use them. This will reduce the trouble caused by dental disease to the world, which is also a meritorious deed.

In this case, I hope that everyone can use it as soon as possible. Whether it makes money or not is just a trivial matter.

Let's see, I leave the sales of toothbrushes, toothpastes, soaps, and toilet soaps in all counties in Youzhou except Jixian to my sister, but I also have requirements."

Lu Ning's eyes lit up when he heard about the whole Youzhou.

What is different from what many people in later generations thought is that at this time, women in large families were basically educated and were good at business.

Although the Han Dynasty did not discriminate against merchants as much as the Ming Dynasty later, the social atmosphere of emphasizing agriculture over business has gradually developed. As a member of the clan, men with dignity will be sent to study as long as they can study, but people still have to eat.

In fact, all families know that business makes money, so they gradually developed the custom of men studying literature and practicing martial arts, while women run the family business.

In fact, this is also a manifestation of the social division of labor in which men take charge of the outside world and women take charge of the house. This division of labor was a common phenomenon in China until later generations. It was often the wife who was in charge of the family's finances.

As Lu Zhi's younger sister, Lu Ning was only proficient in Confucianism, but she was proficient in business and farm management. That's why she knew there was a big profit when she saw toothbrushes and toothpaste. When she heard that Ma Qiang was willing to sell Youzhou's

Her eyes lit up when all the sales were handed over to her.

"I wonder what my brother wants?"

"First, I want pricing power. The final selling price of all products must be determined by me. Of course, I will give my sister enough profit."

"Of course it's okay." Lu Ning nodded to accept.

"Second, I have to collect money first and then deliver the goods, which is the advance payment system. Sister, you should have noticed that I don't have much money in my hand. Without money, I naturally can't buy raw materials and organize mass production, so I need to

Collect the money first.”

"no problem."

"Third, the sales within Youzhou are limited to the counties and counties where our Han people gather. The sales of foreign races such as Wuhuan have been handed over to Master Nanlou before, and I also ask my sister Haihan."

With that said, Ma Qiang took out the token Nanlou gave him and put it on the table. Zhang Sheng and Zhang Sheng both knew the goods. Lu Ning took a breath and looked at Ma Qiang. She didn't expect that Ma Qiang was actually talking to a person.

Lord Wuhuan was acquainted with him, so he nodded and said, "Yes."

Ma Qiang clapped his hands and said with a smile, "Okay, we have reached an agreement. If anyone wants to join this business in the future, I will let him talk to my sister. Again, I will determine the final selling price and the profit.

I don’t care about the distribution.”

Lu Ning chuckled, "What a little brother, you want to use your sister as your boss."

Ma Qiang said with a look of fear, "You don't dare. Besides, sister, you should have figured it out. As long as I have enough supplies, I'm afraid my sister will earn more than tens of millions a year from this transaction."

"But what if the supply of goods is not sufficient?" Lu Ning is indeed good at business and quickly found the problem. If all the supply of goods is provided by Ma Qiang, then once Ma Qiang stops supplying goods, he will have to pay a lot of money to open up other businesses in Youzhou.

The Zhang family and the Lu family on Junshang Road may lose all their money.

"It's simple. We can add a pricing agreement. For example, for my toothpaste, I set the selling price in Jixian County at two hundred cents. Due to the freight, the price in each county may be slightly higher. Sister needs to order in advance.

In three months, I will measure the output to determine whether we can deliver on time and make a business agreement with my sister.

My sister needs to give me a 30% advance payment when signing the business contract, and then add 10% of the payment for every 10% of the goods delivered. In the end, there is no need to pay the payment for the final 30%.

In addition, if the boy fails to deliver the goods on time, unless it is due to force majeure such as floods, earthquakes, wars, etc., he will need to give the goods to his sister at a discount based on the delay. If it is ten days late, it will be given to her for free. So what does my sister think?

?”

Lu Ning rolled his eyes, feeling that this payment method was extremely novel, but it could indeed protect the best interests of both parties. Looking at Ma Qiang's young look, he secretly thought about his background, how could a person with such a thinking

It may be that he is really just a hunter in the mountains. If he is not born in a family, he is guided by a famous teacher, or it is possible that this person is really a descendant of an immortal.

"Brother, this method is very good. Then sister will place an order now." Lu Ning covered her mouth and chuckled. "Sister also only has a little capital. So, sister will first need 50,000 toothbrushes, 200,000 boxes of toothpaste, and 400,000 yuan."

Boxes of soap, let’s try fifty thousand boxes of soap, time, how about giving it to my brother one after another in half a year?”

Lu An and the others, who had been sitting silently behind Ma Qiang, began to breathe quickly after hearing this. Yue Yang, who was not good at mathematics, started to wring his fingers again.
