Plane Merchant Fancy Death

Chapter 139 New Ideas

"The current situation in our Chamber of Commerce is a little bit bad." Scam said directly.

"A little bad?" Ye Junwen asked.

"Yes, the debt of the Chamber of Commerce has reached a peak now."

Scam immediately told Ye Junwen about the situation. The main reason was the civil war.As I said before, the recent income and expenditure of the Tarken Chamber of Commerce itself is in the red, and after Ye Junwen took over, he didn't give them any development funds, just gave them some fresh products for them to sell.

However, in the current situation, the first batch of goods was snatched by the Eighth Prince, and even though they agreed to return them, the goods are still in the main city, and the main city has been beaten up, so they can't get in now.The second batch of goods is still in the hands of Scam, so it’s really impossible to get out. Their target audience is nobles and big businessmen, and now this group of people’s attention is on the civil war, and no one has time I don't care about the luxury of seasonings and perfumes, so I can't ship them at all.

If the goods cannot be shipped, of course there will be no money coming in, and the money going out will be spent soaring.The main reason is Ye Junwen, he asked Scarm to produce pet grooming pills, which of course required investment.The main investment is to find an alchemist, because there are a lot of needs, so Scam also contacted the Alchemist Association, and they sent a large number of people. Although the technical content of this pill is not high, alchemists can do it. We can do it, but we need a lot of people, so the cost is of course high.

Not to mention other raw materials and the like, of course they all require money, so the current situation is that the Tarken Chamber of Commerce has been spending and has no income, which has led to the debt of the Chamber of Commerce reaching its peak. Basically, now It is no longer possible to borrow money.

However, Ye Junwen also brings benefits. This is mainly because Ye Junwen's status has risen and he is already the Duke of the Empire. This status allows the Tarken Chamber of Commerce to borrow more money, that is, relying on a support That's why the Tarken Chamber of Commerce is still developing recently, otherwise it is estimated that the Chamber of Commerce has gone bankrupt by now.

Having said that, the current situation is not optimistic. Although Ye Junwen's status has received more loans, it has now reached its limit because the current civil war situation is unclear. Although Ye Junwen is a duke, what about after the war?If the eldest prince wins, what will happen to the Duke who takes the lead in confronting him?If Ye Junwen is killed after the war, who will repay their money? So although some people are willing to invest, there are still many people who are unwilling to borrow, and currently it is indeed impossible to borrow.

"That is to say, if our things can't be sold, we will go bankrupt?" Ye Junwen said.

"Yes my lord," Scam said, "this subordinate is guilty."

"It's not your fault." Ye Junwen nodded, "I didn't consider the possibility of a civil war when I was choosing products, so let's think about how to deal with it."

"Judging from the current situation, even if the civil war is over, it will take some time for our products to be sold," Scam said.

Ye Junwen nodded. After the civil war, no matter which side wins, their vitality will be seriously injured, and their goods are not necessities, so it is still more troublesome to sell them.After thinking about it, Ye Junwen said, "Can we trade with other two countries?"

Yes, there are a total of three empires on the Human Race side. If this side cannot be sold, Ye Junwen thought about whether to trade with people from the other two countries.

"Trade with other countries at this time may cause trouble." Scam said, "The most important thing is that our chamber of commerce has no experience in conducting transactions with chambers of commerce in other countries..."

Ye Junwen nodded. Dealing with people from other countries would indeed cause suspicion, not to mention that he was just promoted as a duke.However, Ye Junwen was not very worried about this. After thinking about it, Ye Junwen said: "You can find someone to try to contact with chambers of commerce in other countries. Don't worry about any trouble for now."

"Yes." Although Scam felt that there was a problem, but since Ye Junwen said so, of course he could only follow orders.

"However, distant water cannot save near fire." Ye Junwen said, "Even if we get in touch with chambers of commerce in other countries, we are still in danger of going bankrupt under the current situation, right?"

"Yes, my lord." Scam nodded, "Even if we get in touch with chambers of commerce in other countries, it will take some time to talk. Our current situation is indeed very dangerous."

"Then we can only rely on the merchants of the Tang Dynasty, right?" Ye Junwen said, "If we can find products that can be sold now, our funds will be returned immediately."

"This is a good idea, sir." Scam thought the same way, and now this is the more reliable method.

"Then... what are they selling?" Ye Junwen asked.

"The best thing, of course, is arms." Scam said, "However, Datang doesn't seem to be able to provide them. If there are other things, they are food and medicine..."

It is true that these things were the most scarce during the war, but the problem is that food and grass are really hard to sell. Ye Junwen shipped it this time, enough to feed 10,000+ people for 6 days, which can earn a lot of money. How much?Besides, it's not the rich people who are in food shortage at all, but the common people who have no food to eat, and they not only have no food to eat, but also no money. It is impossible to make money from them, Ye Junwen What is needed is to make money from the army, simply put, to make money from the treasury.

"Then it can only be medicine. If you let the pharmacist look at it, maybe it's penicillin or something...but..." Ye Junwen already wanted to cooperate with the previous master pharmacist to launch some new medicines and the like .However, the problem now is that, as far as the current situation is concerned, it doesn't feel like medicines will sell well here.The main situation is that the lives of the soldiers here are not valuable. The important generals and non-commissioned officers can just ask the pharmacist or the priest to treat their illnesses directly, while the soldiers here consume resources.If they really can't be saved, they won't save them. Even if there are medicines, they won't buy them to treat soldiers if they are too expensive. Isn't this a waste.So Ye Junwen felt that even if he really had the medicine, he might not be able to sell it for any money.

"Arsenal..." At this time, Ye Junwen suddenly thought in this direction.Before, I thought it was impossible to sell this kind of thing, it was because he was from China after all, this thing is absolutely forbidden in China, it is impossible to buy it, but it can’t be bought in China, you can buy it outside, Ye Junwen went out by himself It's over if you don't buy it.What's more, Ye Junwen happened to have such a way now.

In fact, this road was the one he found recently, and that was the international security company they had done business with before.That's right, before Ye Junwen's yellow wax medicines, the other party's security company sent people to see the effect, and they did the experiment themselves, of course they were astonished.The effect of this thing is really scary. Generally, minor injuries can be completely cured in a few seconds. Is there any better battlefield medicine than this?
Their security company has a lot of business, including protecting important missions or locations in some dangerous areas, so the loss of personnel is common.With this artifact, of course, a lot of personnel losses can be reduced, so of course they are willing to buy it. As for the price, Lin Yinbao's price is very exaggerated, but the other party doesn't care.

Let's not talk about the yellow wax medicine, let's talk about the way of arms.Although this international security company cannot approve guns for its business in China, of course their troops abroad must use guns.In that kind of dangerous area, you must have a gun, otherwise you can't let your men go up and fight people with knives in the face of militants.

Although they didn't take the initiative to talk about this with Ye Junwen, Ye Junwen felt that they should have a way to do this, and now that the two sides still have a transaction relationship, they should be able to help the other party to make a connection.So Ye Junwen should be able to get the ammunition now.

If I can get some ammunition, it is of course subversive for such a thing to appear in an area where cold weapons are used to fight.Ye Junwen felt that not only the emperor here, but also people from other forces would come to their side to buy this stuff.Just like the current situation, the main city is besieged, if each of the imperial guards under the emperor has a gun, why panic, then the emperor can't buy it.

Thinking of this, Ye Junwen decided to make a batch of arms. Judging from the current situation, it should be more reliable than food and medicine.

"Well, when it comes to arms, the merchants of the Tang Dynasty told me about it a few days ago, and they seem to have a batch of such things recently." Ye Junwen said.

"Really? What kind of weapon is it? A saber? Or a spear? Is it sharp?" Scarm asked immediately. Now that there are few weapons everywhere, there is no place to buy them, so they are really easy to sell.

"It's not swords or anything like that." Ye Junwen said, "Da Tang's weapons are all high-end."

"Huh? That is... a special weapon? Like the kind of musket used by dwarves?" Scam asked.

"Fire guns? Are there such things here?" Ye Junwen was slightly taken aback.But after asking a little bit, I realized that that kind of musket is just a primitive flintlock gun, which can only be produced by dwarven blacksmiths. They are used as decorations or collectibles, not enough to equip the army.

"It's not that kind of low-level toy." Ye Junwen waved his hand after listening, and said, "It seems that I want to show you primitive people the weapons of Tang Dynasty."
