The biography of Gu Qi, a poor girl

"ignorance!

If there is no danger along the road, why don't those big merchants in Chongqing form their own caravans to transport their goods, instead of relying on the four seas one by one, and take down the medicinal materials from all over the world at high prices?

Do you think those companies are all stupid?If it weren't for the fact that our Liu family is weak enough to gain a foothold in Yuzhong's medicinal material business, would you be willing to take the risk of going back and forth between the two states as a father to buy goods with the escort team of the Four Seas Escort Bureau? "

"But... [-]% of the market price is too high. If father really complies with Si Hai's request, we won't be able to make any money."

"It's not that there is nothing." Father Liu sighed, as if he had made up his mind, and said, "After all, the price of goods in Yuzhong is far higher than that in Jiangzhou, and the price of many goods can be sold as high as [-] to [-]%. It's nothing to turn it up and down.

The [-]% that Four Seas asked for was based on the price in Jiangzhou City. If this is the case and the cost of going back and forth between the two places is taken into account, this business is not without profit.It's just far from the original calculation. "

"The business of rice grains and medicinal materials is controlled by the whole world, and we are afraid that we will not be able to do it. What kind of business is father going to do?"

"The rice grain business is controlled by the frontier army, even if there is no Four Seas, we can't do it. As for medicinal materials, Four Seas didn't mention whether we can do it, but since we have to rely on Four Seas to transport goods, it's not easy to run into this bad luck.

In my opinion, when Yuzhou officially pluralizes, we can get some grain and vegetable seeds. There are more varieties. All counties, towns, and villages are waiting to plant land, and we may not be able to sell it.And the seeds do not take up space, as long as two cars are enough, as for the rest...

Salt is controlled by the imperial court and cannot be smuggled, but we can bring a cart of sugar, and then a cart of sauce, oil and dried chili.The red oil bacon soup in Sihai Commercial Market is selling very well, and now chili is also a bestseller in the city.

If there is still a cart, just pull some cloth and durable dry food. The frontier army will not check a small amount of dry food, so we can keep it for our own food, which can save a lot.If the money on hand is enough at that time, I will go to the horse market to buy some donkeys. "

Gu "Why don't we buy farm cattle. Now there are slaughtered wastelands everywhere outside the city. If we can bring the cattle back to Lushan County, it will be easy to sell." The young man suggested.

"No, the cattle are traveling too slowly, and delaying the journey will annoy the escort. The donkey is light, and the speed will not be too slow if it is not carrying heavy loads. It can keep up with the convoy."

"The child listens to his father's arrangement, so let's go get ready."

......

In the past two days, besides the Liu family, many small and medium merchants were calculating the pros and cons of shipping goods across the seas.

Naturally, there are countless people here who have just heard of the rules of the Four Seas Escort Bureau and yelled at them, accusing the Four Seas of doing business that eats human blood, and dispelled the idea of ​​cooperating with the Four Seas.However, most merchants still plan to take a gamble after thinking about it. They don't want to be rich and powerful, but just want to take advantage of the opportunity and have a place in the city's commercial banks early.

These four seas can't be controlled, it's a business of your choice, if you can negotiate, sign the contract, arrange a time to wait for the escort team of the four seas to set off.If you don't want to, then you can find a way by yourself.There is no one blocking the gate of Lushan County. Anyone who has the courage to go out is not afraid of death.

The bodyguard team of the four seas has now been adjusted to set out a team every five days, with a total of 30 vehicles, with one head escort and two assistant escorts.There are 50 bodyguards with good fighting skills, 20 first-class apprentices and part-time grooms who have just entered the bodyguard, and [-] second-class apprentices and part-time handymen.

Such a configured fleet can bring [-] small fleets of other merchants at a time.
