Chapter 115 Trading Life
Just after the New Year's Eve, the price of grain is also rising steadily. The market price of 100 tons of grain is 600 taels, while Cheng Jinzhou only asks for 400 taels, which is comparable to the price of grain in Shaonan after autumn.

Qin Yu's huge business company naturally didn't take the sale of hundreds of taels of silver seriously, and agreed without haggling.Then, I saw Mr. Qin An commanding the staff to pile up the cloth into the warehouse on the north side of the yard, and then transport all the grain to the south.

An ordinary warehouse in Daxia often has a structure with a door on one side and a building on three sides. There are 1 pieces of linen for 5 taels of silver, which almost fills up the north side. Shi Yan stands by and counts the money, and then counts the money. Cheng Jinzhou Then he drank tea and waited for him.

That's all, Shi Yan sent the strange Qin An out, wiped his sweat and asked: "Third brother, what about now?"

"Well, you guys go out. No one is allowed in." Cheng Jinzhou Shi Shiran stood up and entered the crowded warehouse.

Shi Yan and Meng Da Meng Er immediately walked out of the house, pretending to look at the workers who had just left.

After a long while, Shi Yan whispered to Meng Er in a low voice: "Do you think Third Brother is doing some Star Warlock experiment?"

Meng Er ignored him and turned his head away.

Shi Yan has resold things with Cheng Jinzhou more than once, and he couldn't suppress his curiosity. Taking advantage of Meng Dameng's boring gourd, he said to himself: "I guess it's the kind of star array that can teleport, maybe it's even more powerful Yes, the star array that can directly make things disappear, I heard that they are all high-level things. You said, did the third brother learn any strange astrology in the outer peninsula? It is because this star array is too expensive to use. Ten thousand taels of silver. However, if the third brother can become a first-level star warlock, even if the master sells the land, he may have to pay for it..."

Shi Yan is also a child at heart, he said a bunch of things happily, and then said worriedly: "Second brother Meng, you can't tell the third brother."

Meng Er was much older than him, so he snorted calmly, and still didn't look at him.

Shi Yan also calmed down.After he came to the capital, he didn't have any friends to chat with. Even Shi Mo, he couldn't meet him all day long, but Meng Da Meng Er, although he didn't like talking too much, he could let him talk more.

After about 10 minutes, Cheng Jinzhou came out of the room, pulled out a tattered stool from the yard, sat down, and said, "Go find some coolies and take away the food in the room."

"Is it the warehouse in the south?"

"From the west." Cheng Jinzhou laughed silently. The three people following him were all confidantes. He basically didn't worry about leaking secrets, but he couldn't make it so obvious.

If a large-scale material transaction can avoid everyone's eyes, Cheng Jinzhou is of course willing to do so, and it doesn't even matter if he pays more for it.But as the quantity and types of materials increase, such an illusion is unrealistic. Even if he can get rid of everyone and come and go in the warehouse area without fear of danger, gold and silver weighing dozens of catties are not something he can carry. moveable.

However, with the improvement of Cheng Jinzhou's status, his self-confidence has also increased. Which noble family has no secrets and dirty things, and everyone can hide it, so can he.

Sure enough, Shi Yan rode away without saying a word. He dared to chat casually with Meng Da Menger, but he didn't dare to talk nonsense with Cheng Jinzhou.

Cheng Jinzhou ignored the dust on the warehouse wall and leaned against it on a bench.

For a while, there was no such wanton life.

From the moment he came to this world, he was forced to accept the aristocratic life - he likes the food of the aristocrats, the privileges of the aristocrats, but he doesn't like the constraints of the aristocrats.

Perhaps some aristocratic children will use rebellion to fight against constraints.Cheng Jinzhou, who has always been unstable, can't do this because he is worried that other people's attention will cause worse problems.

The life in Xiajing also seemed to be a little turbulent. Until now, in the outer peninsula, although he only had contact with Warlock Cao Fengxing and others, he rarely felt safe and comfortable.

Even if they were leaning against the wall in all directions, no one would make irresponsible remarks.

Neither can the nobles.

The two people with blue cloth covers carried the store manager Qin An to the warehouse area at a trot.

Cheng Jinzhou was too lazy to move, stretched out his hand and pointed backward, and then said to Shi Yan: "Go and make some tea for me."

Shi Yan didn't even have time to wipe off his sweat, and went down the mountain again.

Qin An walked in the door strangely, and was speechless when he saw Mi Shan who was pretending to be overflowing.

He thought it didn't matter if he collected several thousand dan of grain last time. Now it was at least 10 times more, but it made him hesitate.

"Change them all to linen. What else do you have besides sisal?" Cheng Jinzhou leaned his back against the wall, seeming to have guessed his thoughts.

If you don’t use a lot of cash, it’s only the exchange of materials, which is within the scope of Qin An’s decision. At least hard currency like grain can be used to pay taxes. So Qin An became serious again: “The west pier is mainly made of sisal. , the merchants in the north have jute, but the price is a little more expensive."

Cheng Jinzhou also traded jute. He shook his head and said, "Where are the others?"

"How about abaca? The clothes made of this kind of cloth are not strong enough, but they are more comfortable."

"Just it." According to customer service 010, sisal is basically the cheapest hemp fabric, and they determine the price based on raw materials, and the price of abaca will at least not be lower.

These are things that Qin An can decide on, and immediately nodded and said: "I'm afraid it will take a day or two to transport them. The abaca is placed in Huangjin County."

"That's it." Although Cheng Jinzhou could go to other places to do business, but he had just escaped from the gate of the Liyuan, and he didn't want to leave the outer peninsula at all.

……

The price of abaca in the Star Alliance is 50% higher than that of sisal, and the customer service 010 likes to buy it. You can tell from the time he stayed after he appeared. He is very supportive of Cheng Jinzhou's behavior of exchanging abaca for stars. of.

The more the customer service comrades earn, the more peace of mind Cheng Jinzhou will feel. He simply lived firmly in the outer peninsula for half a month. On average, he can conduct a transaction every two days, and a cycle every four days can make his hands Funding doubled.

1 taels of silver turned into 2 taels in an instant, and then 4 taels. If it could go on forever, Cheng Jinzhou felt that he might be able to buy Shaonan City in a few months.

But when the funds exceed 3 taels of silver, there are more restrictions.

The first is the problem of transportation. 3 taels of silver can buy 7500 tons of grain, which can be loaded on 10 ships. If it is inland waterway shipping, it can even be connected into a fleet of 30 or even 50 ships.For areas such as the outer peninsula that require fast loading and unloading, each ship needs about 100 coolies.Of course, the Cao Gang and other gentlemen who eat the wharf are extremely welcome, but in terms of actual operation, the troubles have increased exponentially.

The same restriction applies to warehouses. The total volume of a warehouse on 10 acres of land is only 3 cubic meters, and the stacking of 10 pieces of cloth will basically occupy all the space. Warehouses in the outer peninsula are not so easy to purchase, Cheng Jinzhou It is also not good to use the ring recklessly - even though he is already very reckless.

When the money in his hand accumulated to 5 taels, Cheng Jinzhou decided to buy the book "Real Rice Planting and Processing", including all the video materials, and used up 1.4 taels of cloth.

"It's just small money." Cheng Jinzhou said unwillingly.

Recently, a lot of business has been done in a row, and books have been sold to Cheng Jinzhou. Customer service 010 responded in a good mood: "You can make a lot of money through the Star Alliance library. You are the most courageous person I have ever seen. One of the little ones."

"One of them is not bad. Those who are braver than me, are there many who survived now?" Cheng Jinzhou snorted.

Customer service 010 paused for a moment, and said, "Many people are doing well."

"This is in the outer peninsula." Cheng Jinzhou said with self-knowledge: "People don't envy nouveau riche, and tens of thousands of taels of silver may not be taken seriously by others, but if you earn tens of thousands of taels of silver a month, I think the emperor Your Majesty wants to know what I do for a living."

Customer Service 010 may not want to get involved in his life, so he just said: "Currently, there is only so much real rice information that can be given to you. If you want to obtain similar information, you must reach Star Alliance Level 4."

"Yes." Cheng Jinzhou gritted his teeth. 1 taels of silver is at least 30 US dollars to buy. In China, apart from buying a house, it can basically be said to be invincible.The books in the Star Alliance library are like houses, there will always be so many, and they will always be so expensive.

"Third Brother, Qin An is here." Shi Yan gently knocked on the door.

Cheng Jinzhou flipped through the "Real Rice Planting and Processing" he just got, and said impatiently: "Talk about things."

"Qin An said that a batch of cloth has been prepared, will it be delivered?"

"how many?"

"20 million horses."

4 taels of cloth can be exchanged for 2 taels of grain. Cheng Jinzhou's profits are huge, and the other side's profits are not small, especially when the shops in the West Wharf are in operation, they have the posture of a modern enterprise. .

Cheng Jinzhou saw that the warehouse behind him could no longer hold it, he waved his hand and said, "Tell him that the last batch of cloth is ready, and we will talk about it later."

"Yes." Shi Yan didn't ask anything, what happened recently has exceeded his expectations.

"Go to the Star Warlock Tower, and see what Mr. Cao Feng is doing." Cheng Jinzhou looked at the screen that appeared in the void of the ring, and got on the two people who carried it in the front yard. Although the sedan chair was slow and small, it was more stable and comfortable. When it is very good, it feels like a flat ground, which is something that no sedan can achieve.

Shi Yan asked the boy to deliver the message, followed behind and said, "Mr. Cao Feng recently bought a large batch of crystals, and even said he wanted to buy a glass workshop. I heard that Warlock Liu Kuangxing also supported it."

"Glass workshop? That thing is expensive." Cheng Jinzhou, who felt he was a rich man, moved his buttocks.Glass is a good thing, and practical things spread much faster. From the extreme west to the Great Xia, the technology here is only 30 years behind. At the level of the 17th century, it can almost be said to be on par. After all, China has been able to claim to be the world leader for many years in the ever-changing technological revolution.

Shi Yan stuck out his tongue and said: "I heard that Mr. Cao wants to buy one that can be used immediately, and the other party will add 12 taels of silver."

"Is it worth 1 acres of land?" Cheng Jinzhou thought with eyes wide open: Star warlocks are indeed very profitable.
