Chapter 71 (1/2)
At the beginning, he was the merchant's mercenary and unprincipled. Naturally, Ralph would not really be angry with him. He was just a habitual preemptive. Regardless of whether the other party had such an idea, he would cheat him first, then bully and lure him, so that he could know his position clearly.
In Sean's words, this is just a more conventional trick. Now it's the seller's market, and the initiative is in their hands. If they dare to pick a fault, agents like him will grasp a lot of them with one hand and some people will rush to cooperate with them.
Seeing that the other party was suppressed, Ralph put forward his real request, ”the old rule is to barter, but this time, in addition to grain and salt, 70% of the goods are replaced by this kind of thing. Do you know?”
A dark stone was thrown in front of chebman.
”Flint?” ”What do you want this thing for?” he said in surprise? It is of no use except for burning a fire to keep warm. What you lack most in the mountains is wood, isn't it
”Why is there so much Ralph said grimly, ”just tell me if I can do it or not.”
”There is no shortage of this kind of thing. A mountain near lingdu is made of this kind of flint, so we only need to organize people to dig it.” ”But how much is this stuff priced?” cheberman said grimly? If it's too low, I can't afford the transportation fee alone. If it's set too high, you won't like it, do you? ”
”Don't worry. We just said that we do business on the principle of mutual benefit and mutual benefit, and we will never let you suffer any loss. The price of flint is 5:1 to the price of grain, and five carts of flint top a cart of grain. How about the reasonable price?”
”Five carts of black flint top a cart of grain.” In his mind, chebbman thought quickly, from the qualification of digging out the flint to the cost of hiring someone to dig it out and transport it. He found that there was still a little surplus, although it was not big, but it was also a piece of meat. He was relieved.
At the same time, he was also secretly surprised. It seems that there are masters behind the other party. The price card is very accurate, which always leaves him a piece of meat, which makes him itchy. Although he knows that this is the intention of the other party, he is still led by the other party.
This time, chebbman did not dare to play with the rifle any more, but quickly accepted and put forward his own practical problems. ”The first batch of transactions mainly focused on grain and salt. After all, there is no ready-made flint. I not only need to hire people to mine, but also need to do a good job in all aspects. Only in this way can our business last for a long time, and there must be no less than two during this period In three months, the proportion must be increased bit by bit. You also know how difficult it is to go after entering the mountain. Just transporting these grains and salt will cost us a lot of manpower and material resources. If we replace it with flint, which is five times larger, the difficulty will be greatly increased. ”
”That's understandable.” Ralph said with a smile, ”but you can rest assured that when your flint can be transported to the mountains, there will be a new road waiting for you.”
”In that case, it's not good enough.” Chebbman agreed, but he didn't think so. He thought it was such a simple thing to build roads?
In particular, it is more difficult to build roads in mountainous areas with a length of 780 kilometers. The most important point is that the relationship between the two sides is not so mild. This rugged and difficult mountain road is their biggest barrier. If they build the road under the bus, they will not be afraid of the army led by Manyu to rush in.
The appearance of chebbman, Ralph saw in his eyes, but there was no desire to explain. This kind of people's insight limited their imagination, so speak to them with facts.
”By the way, what is the maximum supply of this kind of leather armor? I have a number to determine the size of the flint mine. By the way, does this kind of leather armor have a name? It's more unique to have a name of your own. ”
”There is a name. Tang's inlaid armour, one hundred pairs a month.”
”Tang's inlaid armor? Good tongue twister name, also become, just show a little unique. A hundred copies a month, less! ”
”It's a little less now, but it's only for a while, and the quantity will increase soon. But our products are not only about this, we also have a variety of finished drugs. You can also have a look at them.” Ralph once again magically pulled out a pile of bottles and jars, which made chebbman look around frequently, wondering whether the other party had any other things hidden.
Different from last time's silence, Ralph was able to encourage his eloquence to introduce the function and curative effect of the product he had just taken out. ”This is the essential medicine for hemostasis and muscle generating powder, and it is an essential medicine for killing enemies when traveling. Any knife wound can be wrapped with hemp cloth after being sprinkled. It can not only be used for external use, but also for internal use. It has a marvelous effect in hemostasis and muscle regeneration. ”
”this is Zhuanggu powder, which is very effective for fracture injuries and can speed up the recovery of bones. However, before taking this powder, you need to correct the bones first, otherwise it is easy to grow crooked, which will cause great trouble. In addition, it can also be used as an auxiliary medicine for bone forging, with good effect.”
”This is duanchang San. It's a strong poison. If you take it no more than one tenth of a pound, it won't be fatal. However, it can effectively kill a variety of parasites in the body's intestines and stomach. The only drawback is that severe abdominal pain and diarrhea will accompany the process.””Qure powder, boiled water for a variety of acute diseases with fever have a certain remission effect, especially for wind cold diseases.”
