Chapter 1008 (2/2)

”The cost of the extraction is not only for the guards, but also for the fortresses along the way. Please escort us through the most dangerous section. It's expensive, but it's worth it as long as you can keep people and goods. All over the world, only the three of us and express can get through the military relations. We can stay in the fortress on the grassland at night. Please escort the caravan. Other car and horse shops, when they arrive at the grassland, are full of vegetables. If they are killed by the robbers, they will be killed. ”

”This is why the goods must be uniformly loaded with the special carriage of Sanhe express. Our special carriage still runs in the desert without delay. The merchant's own carriage can be counted as many as possible. When they arrive at the grassland and desert, they all stop cooking and delay their work. ””It's a small thing to delay. I'm afraid I'll stop in the desert at night and be taken advantage of by the robbers. Even if you avoid the ring horse robbers, you have to guard against the wolves. Prairie wolf, desert wolf, all the way to the west, all the way risk. Sanhe express is the only one with the strength to ensure the safety of people and goods

”And we three and express promise, even if there is an accident on the way, the payment and goods will still be brought back to you. In the same way, if the goods are not available, we will not charge for them. We will take you to Xiliang for free. ”

Three and express staff, said Wang Xiaoxi heart suddenly jump.

”This trip to Xiliang is very dangerous.”

He asked him sternly, ”are you afraid? Now it's too late to regret. It's too late to dispose of the goods. ”

Wang Xiaoxi frowned, pondered for a moment, bit his teeth, and firmly said, ”one hundred steps has already gone fifty steps. There are three express escorts, nothing to be afraid of. Mr. Yan, don't worry. I will take the goods to Xiliang and come back safely. ”

”I believe you.”

Sanhe express informs Wang Xiaoxi that he will start in five days and ask him to be ready.

……

Meanwhile, Yuhua lane.

Several northern merchants headed by Wu Dabiao gathered together with a dignified look.

The ”Royal” signboard was the only one. For a time, it was against the rich merchants in the south of the Yangtze River.

In those years, it was really beautiful.

However, the powerful businessmen in the south of the Yangtze River are too large. Relying on years of sea trade, rich Jiangnan, easy to do business, accumulated terrible wealth.

Jiangnan rich merchants united to form the Jiangnan chamber of Commerce, with millions or even tens of millions of taels.

If so much money is thrown down, it can kill people.

The northern merchants were unable to resist and had to give up part of the capital market.

At present, the market of Beijing is led by Sihai Shaofu, and the local luxury merchants in the capital dominate, followed by Jiangnan chamber of Commerce.

Even the southwest and Lingnan chambers of commerce are catching up with each other.

the northern chamber of commerce is under great pressure and has a hard time.

The market in Beijing is too big and the wealth is amazing.

The key is that the population of Beijing is still rising year by year.

It is estimated that the population of Beijing and Xinmin county has exceeded 3 million.

Outside, there are also vast markets in towns and townships in the capital, which have been developed all over the world. Looking at all the small businesses, it is also a terrible market.

Everyone wants to have a share of the wealth in the capital.

As the saying goes, ”if you don't advance, you will retreat.”.

We can't live on our laurels all the time.

”The goods of Xiliang must go. ”Zhou life show” calls on everyone to go to Xiliang to seek gold, which is equivalent to empress dowager's calling on everyone to go to Xiliang and develop markets in the western regions. It is thanks to the support of the empress in the early years that we are able to have a firm foothold in the capital and compete with the local and Jiangnan tycoons. ”

”However, in recent years, we all hold the idea of eating the old money, guarding their own land, no one to develop new markets. As a result, our advantages were gradually eroded by the rich merchants in the south of the Yangtze River. How long has it been since we were contacted by people in the palace

”The Jiangnan chamber of Commerce next door is flourishing. As far as I know, they have at least three caravans to Xiliang, and even intend to go deep into the western regions. Because of this, the father-in-law of the palace personally appeared and met the president of the capital branch of Jiangnan chamber of Commerce. ”

”Empress Dowager needs someone to go to the western regions market for her and open the door to the western regions completely. We northern chamber of commerce still want to have a foothold in the capital and hope that empress empress will give us a sweet meal, so we must go to the western regions.”

”I've decided to purchase 500000 to 1 million liang of goods, and let my eldest brother personally lead the team to the western regions.”

Wu Dabiao patted the table and said in a loud voice.

He glanced at the crowd. ”What do you think? Tell me. If you want to, we have the money to contribute, and in the future, you will certainly have your share. If you don't like it, you can go out and go downstairs now. In the future, when it's not your turn, don't be sour

The crowd looked at each other.

”It is certainly feasible to buy goods in the western regions. After all, the profits of the western regions are not bad. Business is to make money. Just how to ship the goods? Now Sanhe express almost monopolizes the market, but Sanhe express charges 10% of the selling price of Xiliang. If we buy one million taels of goods, I'm afraid it will cost tens of thousands of taels to Sanhe express, which is too expensive. ”

”In addition, the goods should be sent three times and express delivery, and the customs duty should not be less than a cent. Because all the goods must be loaded with the special carriage of Sanhe express. The variety, quantity and value of the goods are clear at a glance

”Customs duties plus the cost of Sanhe express are basically equivalent to the value of the goods. In other words, one million taels of goods have to pay an additional cost of 1 million taels. If the goods are transported to Xiliang, if there is no profit more than five times, it's OK not to do business. ”
