Chapter 438 The end of wool cloth

"Could it be because the quality is so poor that you only dare to sell it at this price?" a citizen muttered.

"No! It's not!" Leiner arranged for the troublesome official to hear this and pointed at the man who spoke: "Sir, our fabrics are of very good quality!"

"Oh no! No, no, no! You must have heard it wrong, I didn't say anything!" The citizen was startled suddenly, he was afraid that what he said accidentally just now would cause trouble for himself.

"No, please don't be afraid sir, I want you to be a witness for us! Witness the quality of our woolen cloth!"

The official waved a small piece of wool cloth to the citizen and said: "Touch it, look at it, feel it, he will definitely give you a completely different feeling from linen! He is like that Tough, so comfy and soft! At the same time it's very warm!"

"It's such a perfect cloth that you can get three horses for only one copper!! The official shouted loudly to the crowd behind.

"Is this real?" Is there really such a quality fabric at such a low price? "

These people, including some small traders, rushed forward, wanting to see if this kind of fabric is really good and cheap.

"Oh my god, this is a softer and more comfortable fabric than linen!!" A businessman in a slightly more ornate dress said exaggeratedly while stroking the woolen cloth in his hand.

"My lord, the last time I was in the residence of Earl Allen in my memory was such a soft and comfortable fabric! It was expensive velvet from all over the south!"

The facial expression of this businessman is extremely sweet, and it can be seen that the experience in the mansion of Earl Arlen made him feel very honored.

"Perhaps, the only silk that can be better than this kind of fabric is the silk from the mysterious Eastern Empire tens of thousands of kilometers away!" The businessman said coquettishly, with a high-spirited expression.

"Dear sir, is it okay if I want to buy six hundred bolts of woolen cloth?" the businessman said decisively.

"Coax!" His words immediately caused a commotion among the crowd.

Six hundred bolts of cloth is not much for a large territory or even a barony, and it can be easily digested.

But for ordinary people, these six hundred bolts of wool cloth are worth two gold coins, which is enough money for a family of five to live a good life for two years.

"Okay, no problem! As long as you pay now, you can take away the six hundred pieces of wool immediately, and if you don't bring that much cash, you need to pay a deposit of 5% of the total amount first !"

The official said with a smile on his face, and his expression towards the businessman became more and more kind.

"It's a pity that I don't have much cash with me now. I can only pay you a deposit of one silver coin. I will bring my work and money to pick up the goods tomorrow!"

"No problem sir, we are waiting for your arrival anytime!"

The completion of the first transaction stimulated the rest of the onlookers. Many of them were businessmen who traveled far and wide. Goods with such low prices and high quality could be easily sold no matter where they were.

As businessmen, they all have the minimum business vision. Obviously, such high-quality and cheap products will attract the favor of countless people, and even the former commoner cloth, linen, may be greatly impacted.

"I want 300 pieces! I want 500 pieces! I want 2,000 pieces! Please handle it for me first!" The merchants completely squeezed out the small townsfolk, frantically wanting to order this magical woolen cloth.

"No problem sir! 2,000 horses are the priority!" The officer looked at the frantic scene in front of him and couldn't see his teeth. The officials around him hurriedly recorded everyone's shipments and deposit amounts with charcoal pencils and parchment paper. .

When the predetermined quantity of wool cloth reached 15,000 pieces, the official said to the merchants with regret: "Please forgive me, the quantity of wool cloth ordered has reached 15,000 pieces, and we may need more than one." It will take a month to produce the goods you need!"

"Therefore, I am afraid that we will temporarily stop accepting orders. We have distributed the tools for producing woolen cloth to ordinary villagers. If you want woolen cloth very much, you can try to buy it from them!"

After hearing the official's words, these merchants sighed regretfully. Although they were unwilling, they still didn't have the guts to be rude to the Duke's people.

As a result, many merchants who did not grab the woolen cloth followed the officials' instructions and went to various villages to find traces of the woolen cloth.

"Wool cloth? What is that?" The villager who was questioned looked at the businessman in front of him suspiciously and asked in puzzlement.

"You don't know woolen cloth?" The businessman was full of doubts. At that time, which official asked him to come to the village to look for woolen cloth, but now they don't even know what woolen cloth is?

"Could it be that he lied to me?" The businessman became more and more frustrated, and said with a glimmer of hope: "It is the fabric woven by the shuttle, the raw material is wool, and the quality is very good. A woolen cloth factory, and not long ago they sold woolen cloth."

"Is it woven with a flying shuttle?" The villagers were a little puzzled, but they still said, "We do have the flying shuttle. It was given to us by the Duke for free, but we don't know how to use it..."

"Does that mean you can't produce woolen cloth?" The businessman became more and more frustrated.

"Perhaps yes, it's a pity!" The villager shrugged and said, if he hadn't really mastered the method of using the shuttle, he would also like to sell the woolen cloth to the merchant.

"Great! We didn't sell the flying shuttle!" After sending the businessman away, the villager couldn't help but be filled with joy.

When those merchants bought Feishuo everywhere, only a few people including him in the whole village did not choose to sell Feishuo.

As more and more merchants went around to buy woolen cloth, the villagers who thought it was just an exception could not help but become eager.

"My God, why didn't the Duke tell us how to use the shuttle? Could it be that the previous incident annoyed the Duke? It must be like this, otherwise he might not have opened this factory!"

These villagers were annoyed, and almost hated the merchants who bought Feishuo back then.

At the same time, news of the woolen cloth also spread in the northern border as merchants sought to buy it everywhere.

After learning that there is a cloth that is much better in quality than linen, and the price is only one-third of the linen, everyone stopped buying more linen while taking advantage of the price reduction.

They waited for the better woolen cloths to come into the world, and for a while linen, which was so hot a few days ago, was almost unsalable.
