Chapter 537
"Why?"
Yang Min and Duan Lianshan said in unison, with puzzled looks on their faces!
"Currently, we supply 100 pieces of cloth every day, and we lose 400 taels for each piece of cloth sold. That is, we lose 40 pieces of money a day, which is equivalent to 40 taels of silver. Even if we lose money for a month, it is 1,200 taels of silver. This little money
, what does it count for?”
"Since the Song family took the initiative to provoke a price war, but was unwilling to spend money, they only supplied 50 pieces of cloth every day. After calculation, they only lost one or twenty taels a day! They are so stingy, so they have the nerve to start a price war.
It’s so ridiculous!”
“That’s not how a price war works!”
Lin Xu said with a smile.
Seeing Lin Xu's calm look, Yang Min and Duan Lianshan looked at each other!
A loss of 1,200 taels of silver in one month is nothing!
You know, a house in Jiangling County with a good location and a back garden is only worth 50 taels of silver! An acre of good paddy field outside the city is only worth 10 taels of silver!
1,200 taels of silver is enough to buy more than 20 houses with back gardens in the county, enough to buy 120 acres of good paddy fields!
In order to support Lin Xu in the price war with the Song family, Duan Lianshan took out the 1,000 taels of silver from the bottom of the box at home. He originally thought that he could help Lin Xu, but seeing that Lin Xu was so enthusiastic about spending money, he wrote this
1,000 taels of silver is not enough for a month!
"Sir, how do you want to fight?"
Yang Min was also stunned by Lin Xu's words and asked weakly.
"I just said, continue to expand the supply of fabrics! For the time being, increase it to 200 pieces per day. We will see the situation later. If it doesn't work, continue to increase! This price war must be resolved quickly, and I don't have that much time to spend with the Song family.
Get down!"
Lin Xu made a splash!
"Although our textile and dyeing factories have expanded production, it would be very difficult to double the supply all at once..."
Yang Min raised objections from another angle.
"It's easy to talk to the dyeing factory. As long as there is sufficient supply of gray fabric, just go straight to the dyeing pond!"
"But how to solve the problem of gray cloth? We only have so many looms. Even if we continue to add more looms, it will take time..."
"This problem will be easier to solve. We can directly purchase gray fabrics!"
"You mean to purchase gray cloth directly from the people?"
"No, this is too troublesome! Let's purchase gray fabrics in batches directly from those gray fabric merchants!"
After hearing this answer, Yang Min was even more surprised: "If we purchase gray fabrics directly from gray fabric merchants, our costs will increase a lot!"
"The price war has already begun, so how can we care about this little money? In addition, purchasing gray fabrics from gray fabric merchants is only a temporary expedient! Our textile mills and dyeing factories must continue to expand production capacity!"
In fact, Lin Xu knew very well that from a pure business perspective, purchasing gray fabrics was a more efficient way. The profits of textile factories were much lower than those of dyeing factories. Compared with the soap he was about to launch,
, cement, glass and other monopoly industries’ profits are even more incomparable!
However, textile factories are a labor-intensive industry that can provide a large number of jobs.
There are still so many people waiting to come to Linshan Village to work. Fortunately, the men can go to the construction site, but for the women, for the time being, jobs must be provided by expanding the production capacity of the textile factory.
According to the plan, he planned to gradually "annex" all the surrounding villages with Linshan Village as the core, and establish a stable "rear base", and a large population, or in other words, a large labor force, would establish this "rear base".
The basis of the "rear base".
After all, he is still worried about this fucking era!
It is better to believe in no one than yourself.
Only when you have strong strength can you advance and retreat with a well-founded basis!
