Chapter 56
Chapter 61 Hatake Sakumo's Satisfaction (3/3)
The next afternoon.
A villager was planting rice in the field, and after a while, a nearby villager stepped over from his field.
"Ichiro, listen to my mother-in-law, did you take all your savings to buy cloth yesterday?"
"Yes, I feel that a terrible world war is going to break out this time. I guess that some countries will close foreign trade transactions at that time, so buying cloth in advance, whether it is sold at a higher price or used by yourself, is cost-effective."
"Feeling? Guessing? Ichiro, are you just guessing all of these?"
"Of course, I read books for a few years when I was a child, and I have some understanding of these. After thinking about it for a long time, I found that the land of water cannot grow cotton and other textiles, so I bought fabrics in advance."
He put down his hoe and wiped his sweat, with a big smile on his face, a smile every spy must learn, with natural enthusiasm and closeness.
However, the man didn't get close because of the other party's smile, he just looked at the other party with pity, and sighed softly: "Ichiro, it's not that I look down on you, but... if you guessed correctly, Those big businessmen, big people still can't guess? You are good at everything, just this confidence...hey."
The man shook his head and went back to his own fields to farm, and the guy named 'Ichiro' just smiled brightly and said with a smug face: "I went around the city this morning, Maybe you don't know, the price of fabrics today has risen from 100,000 to 110,000 boxes."
"what!??"
.....
The spies used different methods to publicize in various cities and villages, this time, finally some people are willing to buy cloth.
The owner of the fabric store also quickly brought back some goods from the countryside and suburbs, and sold some at the price of 110,000 boxes.
Of course, in the evening, in the Mie City fabric store, the ten captains gathered again. This time, Hatake Sakumo's complexion finally improved, but the doubts in his heart deepened.
"Through publicity and price increases, a small number of people finally came to buy. Today, our store sold five boxes, and other stores should be similar, but there are still very few people who buy it, and those who have been swept away by us. The owner of the fabric store pulled a cart from the suburban inventory and sold it back. With their competition, the tens of thousands of boxes of fabrics we hoarded will never be sold out."
"Sold out? So you don't understand, I never said that I want to sell cloth now, Sakumo, don't worry, just watch, believe in my plan, believe in the eyes of the dead monkey, he trusts me so much, you What else is there to be afraid of?"
"I'm not afraid, I'm just..."
"Okay." Ye Xuan raised his hand to stop Hatake Sakumo's explanation, he raised his chin and his voice became more calm, "Tomorrow, raise the price from 110,000 to 120,000 to let those shop owners feel your enthusiasm. ."
"As ordered!"
.....
The next day, 300 Anbu disguised as civilians again, and soon ran out of cloth in the shop.
Civilian spies continued to publicize, and as the price of cloth continued to rise, the effect of the publicity became better and better. More and more people began to envy the spies who bought cloth for 100,000 yuan, and many people went into the city with money to buy cloth. .
However, when they entered the city, they found that the residents of the city were already lined up in front of the fabric store, and even the fabric store belonging to Ye Xuan in each city was crowded with people.
"Haha, this trick is really good, these people have come to buy it, Little Xuan, hurry up and sell it!" Hatake Sakumo said happily.
"Yes, yes, Mr. Xuan, now is the best time to sell!" No. 104105 businessman spy was also excited.
"No, we don't sell any of our goods. On the 105th, you go out and tell the people outside that all the fabrics are sold out today, but we will ship the fabrics for sale tomorrow. If you want to buy fabrics, ask them to come and buy them tomorrow."
"What? Little Xuan, you..."
"Speak less, do less, see more!"
Ye Xuan glanced at Hatake Sakumo lightly, and was so angry that he was suffocated in one breath.
Then he seemed to think of something, and Hatake Sakumo's heart moved, and his face showed enlightenment: "I understand! If you promote this today, you will make these people who can't buy cloth go back and wait, and while waiting, they will also shout more People come to buy cloth. Early in the morning tomorrow, our Anbu members will go to sweep the goods again. If someone queues up earlier than us, we can increase the price and buy it at a price of 130,000 boxes. The price, our own store will sell in large quantities, right?"
"As expected of Minister Anbu, he is still a bit smart." Ye Xuan praised softly, which made Hatake Sakumo smile and a sense of satisfaction rose in his heart.
Eh? No, why am I satisfied?
Hatake Sakumo was stunned for a moment, only to realize that he actually looks like a child, and is actually happy when he is praised?
He looked at Ye Xuan suspiciously, and then found an emotion called 'smiling' in Ye Xuan's eyes.
“Damn, Laozi, a big man, was amused by a 7-year-old!!!”
Seemingly thinking of something, Hatake Sakumo's face changed, and he immediately turned to look. Sure enough, all the ten captains were holding back their laughter, which made Hatake Sakumo feel even more sad.
My name forever!
He lowered his head reluctantly, desperately trying to find a crack to crawl into, but at this moment, Ye Xuan opened his mouth, and Damn it's voice came into his ears again.
"I'm sorry, my minister, in fact, everything you just guessed was wrong."
Hatake Sakumo: "..."_
