Three Kingdoms: Liu Daer Was Forced Out of the Mountain at the Beginning

According to Liu Yan's arrangement, the nobles in Youzhou have temporarily given up on the Xianbei market.

After turning their targets to Yongzhou and Liangzhou, the Youzhou nobles began to get busy.

The undercover craftsmen who have been quietly collecting information have rarely seen Youzhou nobles come to inspect the workshop recently.

And the soap factory has not stopped working and is still producing as usual.

Then they reported the news to Shopkeeper Zhou.

After Shopkeeper Zhou received the news, he began to pay attention.

At the same time, his Xianbei merchant friends also told Shopkeeper Zhou that the Youzhou nobles did not contact the Xianbei merchants again to mention the sale of soap.

Of course, they did not refund the deposit they received.

The Xianbei merchants who had paid the deposit were busy selling soap among various tribes, and no one immediately went to the Youzhou nobles to ask for a few hundred taels of silver.

Shopkeeper Zhou understood that the tasks assigned to him by Bai Feng and Cao Jie were 80% completed.

However, the Youzhou nobles did not sell soap to the Xianbei people, and their own soap workshops did not stop work. The combination of these two pieces of information made shopkeeper Zhou confused for a while. What exactly were sold in the gourds of the Youzhou nobles? What medicine.

As a cloth merchant, Shopkeeper Zhou could not quickly contact the Youzhou nobles and get information from them.

Shopkeeper Zhou, who could only choose to wait and see what happened, finally decided to send the news back to Hanzhong and wait for Bai Feng and Cao Jie's arrangements.

Although the correspondence took a long time, Shopkeeper Zhou had no good solution at this time.

After sorting out the current situation, Shopkeeper Zhou asked a guard from the Hanzhong Marquis Mansion to escort him to Youzhou to quickly send the letter back to Hanzhong.

Bai Feng, who was in Hanzhong, was naturally waiting for the news from Youzhou.

Bai Feng still has great trust in shopkeeper Zhou's ability.

Mainly, Bai Feng was a little unsure about how the Youzhou nobles would respond.

After all, they dare to reach out for their own interests, and Bai Feng is really not sure what operations they will make in the future.

Soon after, Shopkeeper Zhou's letter was delivered to Bai Feng.

After calling Cao Jie to the study, they both read shopkeeper Zhou's letter together.

"Well, shopkeeper Zhou has done a good job. Not a single piece of soap from the Youzhou nobles has been sold yet, hahaha!"

When he was halfway through the letter, Bai Feng couldn't help but smile to Cao Jie.

"Great, let these Youzhou nobles know the heights of the world. Now they should wake up."

"Husband, if Liu Yan and the others come to plead for mercy, what will you do?"

Cao Jie also felt a breath of bad breath coming out of his chest, and then asked Bai Feng.

"If Liu Yan really pleads with me on behalf of the Youzhou nobles, then of course he has to give him face, but he doesn't want Lizi anymore!"

"Li Zi?"

"Well, we can still let the Youzhou nobles buy shares in the soap workshop. It just so happens that the workshops there are also ready-made. We can put them into production with a little modification."

Then Bai Feng talked about the arrangements after Liu Yan's plea.

"However, the Youzhou nobles who invested in the shares in the first two years did not receive dividends, and they will only receive dividends starting from the third year!"

Bai Feng wants the Youzhou nobles to return their land by providing people and efforts, and then work for the soap workshop for two years in vain.

Two years later, even if these Youzhou nobles could start to pay dividends, the output of Youzhou soap had doubled by that time, and the most profitable period had long passed.

This is the price they should pay.

After hearing this, Cao Jie nodded with great satisfaction and said:

"Well, your husband's method is very good."

"As long as these nobles in Youzhou want to make money on soap, they must follow our rules."

Then the two continued to read the letter.

At this time, Bai Feng's expression gradually became serious.

The operation of the Youzhou nobles indeed exceeded Bai Feng's expectations again.

Originally, Bai Feng thought that after his precise blow was over, the Youzhou nobles should wake up and apologize to him.

But according to the information provided by Shopkeeper Zhou, the Youzhou nobles don't want to just surrender like this.

"Husband, what else can these Youzhou nobles do to sell the soap in their hands?"

Cao Jie did not expect that the Youzhou nobles would be so stubborn and would go against them.

"I think they should wait for our batch of soap to be sold in Xianbei before selling the soap in their hands."

"However, the soap workshops in Youzhou have not stopped production. This shows that in addition to the above plan, the Youzhou nobles have other ways to confidently sell the soaps in their hands."

When Bai Feng said this, he started to think.

He put himself into the perspective of the Youzhou nobles. If he faced this situation, how should he deal with it?

First of all, if you admit your mistake, you will definitely face losses, but the cost of holding the soap in your hands will continue to increase.

After a moment, an idea flashed in Bai Feng's mind.

The Youzhou gentry were selling soap to more than just Xianbei!

Liangzhou and Yongzhou currently have no soap workshops built. Some of Yizhou's soaps will be shipped to these two states for sale, but the quantity is not large.

"Jie'er, is it possible that the Youzhou nobles want to transport this batch of soap to Yongzhou and Liangzhou for sale?"

Then Bai Feng asked Cao Jie.

The direction of Cao Jie's thinking was how the Youzhou nobles could compete with him for the Xianbei market. After Bai Feng's reminder, Cao Jie also felt that this was a high possibility.

"Husband, I think this is really possible!"

Then Cao Nod nodded and said to Bai Feng.

"But if the Youzhou nobles sell soap to Yongzhou and Liangzhou, plus transportation costs and the market price of soap in the two states, they won't make much money."

After Cao Jie's analysis, he came to the above conclusion and began to feel a little uncertain about the actions of the Youzhou nobles.

Bai Feng kept nodding after hearing this. If the Youzhou nobles wanted to maximize their profits, they would definitely compete with Hanzhong for the Xianbei market.

"Perhaps the Youzhou nobles thought they were unable to take back the Xianbei soap market from our hands, so they made this move."

"In this way, it can be explained that the soap workshops in Youzhou have not stopped working. It should be that the nobles in Youzhou plan to make small profits but quick sales in Yongzhou and Liangzhou, otherwise they will face losses."

Bai Feng believed that his judgment was close to the actual thoughts of the Youzhou nobles.

In fact, the Youzhou nobles did this.

"Husband, even if they want to open up the soap market in Yongzhou and Liangzhou, we can't let them succeed!"

After hearing this, Cao Jie spoke directly.

If the Youzhou nobles make a bad start and the following states and counties follow suit, it will be a big deal!
