Chapter 91 Selling Iron at a sky-high price
"Brother Dingchen has been loyal to my eldest brother, and he has been entrusted with a heavy responsibility. One woman can't deal with two husbands, and one man can't deal with two masters. Let's let Brother Dingchen go." Suddenly, a vague voice came.
Everyone followed the voice and saw Shi Xin, who was picking up a chicken leg and nibbling it: "Mr. Zhang, did you say what you just said?"
"Yes." Shi Xin then swallowed the mouthful of chicken into his stomach and replied slowly.
"Brother Dingchen..." Xu Da looked puzzled. We have been together since childhood. Instead of helping us, you help an outsider?
"Brother Zhang saved my life. Without Brother Zhang, there would be no Tang He today, so please don't be surprised." Tang He hesitated and said that this topic was really a little heavy.
"Forget it, a gentleman is not difficult for others. No wonder Brother Dingchen." Zhu Yuanzhang also said, "So I don't know why Brother Dingchen came this time?" In the language, there is no enthusiasm just now.
"I..." Tang He still wanted to explain, but he didn't know where to start.
"We are here to help Mr. Zhu." Shi Xin said with his mouth full of oil.
"Help us? Will you help us eat?" Xu Da couldn't help it anymore and began to laugh bluntly.
Shixin didn't care at all. He went to sell refined salt to large households, and he had suffered too much.
"What can Mr. Zhang do for us?" Zhu Yuanzhang also opened his mouth. He could see that the man with a face in front of him was actually as wise as a fool, and he underestimated him just now.
"Help Mr. Zhu fight the tartars. In the tyranny of the Yuan Dynasty, we Han people were demoted to the fourth class. Now the general trend of the world is to drive the Mongolians out of the Central Plains, which is the responsibility of all Han Chinese!" Shixin said these words with great righteousness.
After saying these words, he tore off another chicken leg and then nibbled it up.
"I don't know how Mr. Zhang is going to help us fight the tartars? Do you go to the Tatar's place to eat a mouth full of oil and eat the poor? Xu Da continued to sneer.
"No, no, no, we are like-minded, so I came here happily. At the Tatars, even if I carry the sedan chair, I won't go." Shi Xin said with a righteous face.
Eight-lifted sedan chairs? It's almost the same for eight Yuan soldiers to take you there! Everyone is happy. This is really a person who doesn't know the depth of heaven and earth.
What are you talking about? Hurry up and get to the point. Tang He can't stand it anymore.
"I came all the way and found that there were not enough weapons in your barracks?" Shi Xin said slowly. He
Everyone's face changed slightly. This is the secret of his army. Although there are many people, there is a temporary lack of weapons, so they did not attack the Miao tycoon in Hengjian Mountain. Miao tycoon once besieged Haozhou with the Yuan army. Zhu Yuanzhang has long wanted to eradicate them. He suffered from a lack of weapons, and the soldiers also lacked training. There is no movement.
If it is known by the Yuan army and sends troops to attack, it will definitely be defeated.
"I don't know what good strategy Mr. Zhang has?" Zhu Yuanzhang asked with a blank face. His joy and anger did not appear on his face, and his expression was still natural.
"I'm here to solve the weapon problem for Mr. Zhu."
"How do you say this?"
"I have thousands of pounds of iron, and I am willing to sell it to Mr. Zhu at a low price. Mr. Zhu can make enough weapons."
"What, how many kilograms of iron? What about bragging?
"That's right, it's difficult to get dozens of pounds of iron. Where can I find so much iron?"
For a while, everyone was talking about it.
"I don't know if Mr. Zhang's words are true?" Zhu Yuanzhang asked.
"If you don't believe it, you can ask Brother Dingchen. Needless to say a few thousand catties, even tens of thousands of catties of iron, I can also get it."
Tang He heard Shixin's words and nodded quickly: "Yes, that's right, this iron, how much it needs."
The blast furnace is placed on the north side of the base. Tanghe has seen it for a long time. After burning for a day, 2,000 catties of iron water can flow out from it. Even if it costs ten thousand catties of iron, it is a matter of four or five days.
A waist knife needs about three catties of iron, and a wooden spear needs half a catty of iron. If it is a fine steel spear, it will take 40 catties!
I heard that there was so much iron, and everyone's shock just now had gradually gone, and they began to smile.
However, what I have to hear next is to make Zhu Yuanzhang's flesh painful.
"I don't know what the price of this iron is?" Zhu Yuanzhang asked.
Speaking of the price, Shi Xin finally became interested: "This price, Brother Dingchen brought me here. They are all old acquaintances. Naturally, it should be cheaper. Moreover, we are anti-yuan's big plan. Naturally, we can't calculate the price too high, right?"
These words made everyone nod, and these words came to their hearts. Those who resist the tyranny of the Yuan Dynasty should be more supportive.
Xu Da picked up the glass and looked up to drink the wine in the glass.
"It's one tael of silver per catty. It's easy to settle the account." Shi Xin's lips touched up and down and said these words.
"Poo!" All the wine in Xu Da's mouth was sprayed out, one tael of silver per catty? This is ridiculously expensive, isn't it?
Zhu Yuanzhang couldn't help it. He got up from his seat, took the wine jug, and walked down slowly.
"Come on, Mr. Zhang, I'll give you a toast." Zhu Yuanzhang filled Shixin's glass.
"Come on, since you're here, just treat it as your own home." Zhu Yuanzhang personally picked up the wine glass and handed it to Shi Xin.
Do you want to get me drunk with this glass of wine? I don't drink that much. Shi thought with confidence, but his face was full of smiles, "Then it's better to obey than to be respectful."
After saying that, as soon as I looked up, a glass of wine went into my stomach. It was warm. The meat I just ate was a little greasy. I felt much better after this wine. I could eat a few more pieces of fat meat later. I had to seize this opportunity.
"Sir Zhang, is there any room for negotiation about the price of this iron?" Zhu Yuanzhang asked with a smile.
Shi Xin didn't raise his head. He lowered his head and took a mouthful of meat. He said vaguely, "When I came, the eldest brother ordered this price. If it's less, I can't explain when I go back. But..."
I knew you were going to bargain, so I was prepared.
"But what?" Zhu Yuanzhang eagerly waited for his answer. His army lacked weapons, otherwise he would have attacked the city long ago, especially Jiqing (now called Nanjing). This is a feng shui treasure, with the spirit of a king. There are six dynasties before and after. If this place is occupied by others, he will become very passive.
"Although the price can't be less, I can give you more." Shi Xin said.
This is also a way to talk about buying and selling. The price remains unchanged. You can be given something, and many people will feel that they have taken advantage of it. Afterwards, they will find that the gift is worthless and use at all.
However, Shixin is not a annihire. He wants to give Zhu Yuanzhang something, or iron.
"For every 100 catties of iron, I will give you two catties. If it is a thousand catties of iron, I will give you 50 catties, two thousand catties of iron, I will give you 200 catties, five thousand catties of iron, and I will give you a thousand catties. How about it?" Shi Xin turned his eyes and said by the way.
The more you buy, the greater the proportion of freeda, and the more it can promote a large amount of transactions. In terms of business, Shixin can be said to be self-traped.
Zhu Yuanzhang's eyes were shining: "Okay, then I'll take 5,000 catties first."
Shi was secretly happy in his confidence. It seemed that they were really short of iron, and they reached an agreement so quickly. When I came out this time, I finally achieved this big thing. Five thousand catties is five thousand taels of silver. Using five thousand taels of silver and buying six thousand catties of iron are also sold at a sky-high price.
(Today, I originally planned to code only two chapters. My typing speed is slow, and I have to think about it. This chapter takes at least two hours. Every time there are three or four updates, I have to sit in front of the computer for seven or eight hours. Yesterday, I updated four chapters. Today, I planned to take a break, but when I opened it, my collection exceeded 2,000. I was very excited. I immediately refueled and updated another chapter, which was regarded as a Thanksgiving greeting to all book friends.
Don't worry if you like hot-blooded books. Just bear with it for a few more days. When Zhang Yang has made a weapon, you can start.)
