Chapter 252 Bidding Auction!!

After the completion of the stocking factory, it is expected that its income is not as large as penicillin Before the construction of the stocking factory, Gu Zhou took out a part of the stockings to sell to Desunmet Commercial Bank, Desheng Commercial Bank keenly perceived the business opportunity, first let the stockings shine on the most famous female stars in Guangdong, and then it was a regular advertisement in the newspaper, which caused a sensation.

Finally, limited sales are available at major stores.

In just half a month, some upper-class young ladies in Guangdong almost had a pair of stockings, as if they couldn’t see anyone without a pair of stockings when they went out.

As one of the most prosperous provinces in the country, Guangdong has merchants from all over the country, and such a commodity with huge benefits will naturally not be missed by them.

So wealthy businessmen waved banknotes to buy stockings, hoping to sell stockings all over the country.

Among them, there are also foreign companies from all over the world.

According to statistics, in 1911, there were nearly 3,000 foreign companies nationwide, and the capital of some foreign banks in China exceeded 10 million yuan, a very large amount, and some foreign banks had a monopoly position in some regions or industries.

When the time was right, Desheng merchants 590 announced that if they wanted to buy stockings, they would come to Qingshan Town.

As a result, businessmen from all over the country and even from all over the world poured in, and Qingshan Town had thousands more foreigners in a short period of time.

Gu Zhou’s way of making money with stockings is very simple, one province and one agency, which auction arrives, which one becomes an agent, and can purchase goods from Gu Zhou.

The agency right in Guangdong Province was naturally handed over to Desunmet Commercial Company.

In addition to Guangdong Province, there are 21 provinces, as well as Beijing and Shanghai, and Tianjin auctioned a total of 24 regional agency rights.

As for abroad, Dongying, the United States, the sun never sets, Germany, France… Ten proxy zones are also set up.

Like penicillin, nylon stockings are also Gu Zhou’s exclusive business.

To put it bluntly, love to buy or not.

Don’t buy and go away, some people buy.

Gu Zhou was not afraid that someone would reverse research nylon stockings in a short period of time based on nylon stockings.

Nylon technology is very simple in modern times, but in this era, it is a very high-end technology.

Historically, the largest chemical industry company in the United States had a general direction, decided to pay $250,000 a year for research expenses, and it took more than a decade to develop nylon.

And even if nylon is developed, there is still a distance from Ding Yehua.

Now that you have a finished product, you can reverse study it, and it will take at least five years to get results.

Five years of exclusive business around the world is enough.

The auction venue is a makeshift wooden shed that houses hundreds of people.

These hundreds of people who participated in the competition for agency rights included old people in their sixties and seventies, and young people in their twenties and thirties, men and women, suits and coats, Westerners and Orientals.

Speaking Northeast dialect, Wu, Cantonese, Xiang, Gan, Hakka and other dialects, Mandarin, English, Japanese, French, German, it is simply the noisiest place Gu Zhou has seen in the world.

Fortunately, most of the foreigners bring their own translations, and a small number of them can speak official language.

Knock knock!

The huge drumbeat suppressed all the sounds, and hundreds of people looked at Gu Zhou who walked up the high platform in unison.

“I’m Gu Zhou, some of you know me, some don’t know me, but it’s okay, you just need to know that I’m the owner of the nylon stocking factory, and then I will personally host this agency auction.”

After that, Gu Zhou stopped for half a minute to translate his words for the translators.

“I don’t talk nonsense anymore, the first area, Shanghai’s stockings sales agent, starting price, 50,000 oceans!” The minimum markup is a thousand oceans. ”

Shanghai’s sales area is naturally far inferior to the provincial sales area, but as the most prosperous area in this land, Shanghai’s competitiveness can rank in the top three.

After ten seconds of silence, a businessman held up a sign of +10,000.

“Good! 60,000 oceans! ”

“Eighty thousand oceans over there!”

“One hundred thousand oceans!”

“The sales agency right in the Shanghai area, 180,000 oceans, there is no bidding!”

“180,000 once! 180,000 twice! 180,000 three times! Congratulations! ”

“One hundred thousand once, one hundred thousand twice, one hundred thousand three times! Congratulations to this gentleman for obtaining the sales agency right in Hunan region! ”

The auction was held for a whole day, and all the agency sales rights in the last 24 regions were auctioned out, of which Jiangsu, Zhejiang and Fujian ranked the top three, with 250,000 oceans, 240,000 oceans and 220,000 oceans respectively.

Shanghai and Beijing ranked fourth and fifth.

Xinjiang, Gansu and Guizhou are among the bottom three, with only 50,000 oceans, 55,000 oceans and 60,000 oceans.

The top ten foreign sales areas are as high as 500,000 oceans and as low as 300,000 oceans.

After the auction, according to statistics, more than seven million oceans were sold for agency rights alone.

This does not include payment.

In the next five days, the major agents paid all the money, so a truckload of millions of stockings was transported from Qingshan Town to Guangzhou, a national cargo distribution center, and then from Guangzhou to all parts of the country and even the world.

Ten days after the auction, nylon stockings began mass sales across the country.

On May 15, 1940, the first batch production of nylon socks was launched, 7.

80,000 pairs of stockings were snapped up in one day.

At the time, it sold for $1.50 a pair.

At that time, the production of nylon stockings was very small, and the supply was far less than the demand.

And this time, Gu Zhou prepared enough nicheng stockings.

Through the summary of telegrams from various provinces, on the day of large-scale sales, a total of 500,000 pairs of nylon stockings were sold nationwide, and a pair of nylon stockings was sold in three oceans.

The foreign data was summarized after a few days, and the sales volume exceeded one million pairs a day, and a pair of nylon stockings cost $1.50 a pair.

News related to nylon stockings can be seen in major newspapers around the world, and they are considered rare and rushed to buy.

The sale of nylon silk stockings under the advertising effect and word of mouth caused a huge sensation.

In the advertisement, nylon signifies a new life and future, meaning the spoonful advantage of spring humans over nature.

Nylon is light and tough, non-rotting and wrinkle-free.

The newspaper’s phrase “as thin as spider silk, as strong as steel wire, as beautiful as silk” to praise this fiber, rushed to buy it in stores, and the chaotic situation forced the security organs to dispatch police to maintain order…
