Chapter 69: The Arms Trade (Part II)

"Arquebus?!" Marquis Harlan gasped in surprise, "but I heard that this is one of your cards in Remlos Castle, and are you really going to sell it?"

"No way. Murphy shook his head, pretending to be helpless, "We are too short of money now, and I hope to exchange these goods for a sum of money to stabilize my governance and the normal operation of my territory." ”

Murphy admits that he has a certain element of lying, although the city's finances are a little lacking, but not so short, and under the turnover of the city hall, the security in the city has also returned to normal, almost everyone has their own job, and the level of production has even exceeded the highest level in history.

It won't be long before the steam engine will be installed on the line, and at that time, Remlos Castle will completely get rid of the backward semi-manual and semi-mechanized production and officially enter the era of steam industry!

Strong productivity means more capital, and this truth is still relevant in this world.

The productivity of the high-level transcendents is indeed very strong, but the cost of hiring them is also ridiculously high, in comparison, although the production capacity of the steam engine is a little worse than that of the high-level transcendents, but it is better than the cost performance.

"I don't know what kind of cooperation method His Highness plans to make?" Marquis Harlan was obviously moved, suppressed the excitement in his heart, and asked expressionlessly.

"The process of making this arquebus is not difficult, but I think the nobles don't know how to make iron, and this batch of goods is best sold to caravans, anyway, there are only more than 10,000 pieces, and they can make a lot of money after selling them farther away. Murphy was secretly calculating.

"Lord Harun, I don't have a lot of arquebuses in my hands, I can sell about two thousand to Crescent City at most. Murphy grimaced.

"If I ask for them all, how much gold will I need?" Harlan hurriedly shouted anxiously when he heard that there were only two thousand pieces that were not enough for his entire line, and he was afraid that Murphy would sell them to others.

"Each arquebus costs a metal naso, after all, the weapon is enchanted and the cost is very high, so I am already selling it to you at close to the cost price. Murphy shook his head, pretending to be in pain.

"Okay! I want it all!" After all, Marquis Harlan is only twenty-three or fourteen years old, and he doesn't know how to think about the pros and cons, plus the economic development of Crescent City is excellent, and he can be called wealthy, and it will not hurt his muscles and bones to spend 10,000 gold naso to win this batch of arquebuses, so he hurriedly accepted it.

"Well, I've drawn up a trade contract here, and if you sign it, the arquebus will be yours. Murphy squinted and smiled, pulling out the trade agreement deed from the drawer.

Things went unexpectedly smoothly, the whole rhythm of trade was in his own hands, and the Marquis of Harlan agreed almost without thinking, and with this money, it was possible to carry out the industrial plan.

Marquis Harlan took the contract handed over by Murphy and read it carefully.

"I don't have any problems, I just want to know when I can take these arquebuses. Marquis Harlan pretended to be calm, but in fact, his heart was already excited.

"As soon as you sign the contract, I will arrange it for you immediately. Murphy spread his hands and lured Marquis Harlan into signing the contract like a devil, "And I can sell you a batch of buckshot at half price." ”

"Okay, I'll sign it!" Marquis Harlan couldn't hold back any longer, and put his hand on the small circle on the contract paper.

"Yes, Lord Harlan is indeed a happy man!"

Murphy pressed his hand against Harlan's hand, and the circle glowed blue, and a blue mark appeared on the hands of the two.

Sign a few more different contracts, and my hand will become a rainbow. Murphy looked at the four-color contract mark on his hand and couldn't help but spit out.

"Your Excellency Harlan is staying in the humble house for a few days now, and I will entertain you well!" Murphy laughed, who wouldn't welcome the wronged boss?

"I haven't eaten enough of your food yet!I'm sure you'll get all the money you've earned from me back this time!" said Marquis Harlan, who laughed in unison, bought an arquebus, strengthened his army, and was in a good mood.

"Your Excellency Harun, go back and rest first! I will arrange for you to visit the arquebus tactics tomorrow. Murphy stood up, smiled and patted him on the shoulder.

"Then I won't disturb Your Highness and go back. Marquis Harlan smiled and got up to go back to his room.

"Lord Carolon, please cover my study with a soundproofing spell. ”

Smiling as Marquis Harlan left, Murphy said to Carolen, who had been monitoring the situation in the house in real time.

"Your kid's heart is really black, your arquebus is enchanted, a total of only nine silver naso, you sell it to others hardware naso, that is, that kid has little experience, low strength, empty marquis title but no marquis level strength, otherwise you can sign this agreement so easily." Carolon watched the whole process of the transaction and couldn't help but complain.

"It's also to give him a long memory, to increase his experience, besides, Crescent City is not short of money. Murphy replied casually in his mind.

"Alright, I don't want to listen to your nonsense, the soundproofing spell has been given, let's start your next step. Carolon replied and said no more.

"You're Lord Jonas Alsace, aren't you?

"Don't dare to be, don't dare to be, Jonas, the president of the Old Crescent City Chamber of Commerce, has seen His Highness Murphy. Jonas bowed respectfully.

"You're Kony's father, and naturally my elder, so you're welcome. Murphy returned the old man's salute, "I have a business I want to do with you." ”

"Kony and I have talked about it, is it still about arquebus?" the old man asked, a little knowingly.

"Not only that, I have learned about the strength of your Chamber of Commerce, and you have made great contributions to the current development momentum of Crescent City!"

"It's the old marquis who governs it properly, I just played a trivial role, but it's a pity that the old marquis left early, and the little marquis's experience is not enough." ”

The old man let out a long sigh, and his words revealed some of his thoughts on the matter of the Marquis of Murphy Pit Harlan.

"It's an old man, I'm afraid it's not easy to deal with. Murphy straightened his posture, this is a big businessman in front of him, not a little cute new man like Marquis Harlan, he saw it in his eyes when he pit Harlan just now, but he didn't say a word.

"Sir, let's get straight to the point. Murphy pulled out a plan and handed it to Jonas.

Jonas nodded, took the plan, and looked at it carefully.

"Your Highness, I think this agreement can be revised. Jonas looked up and said euphemistically, "The price of an arquebus is a bit too high.

"According to my inference, the price of three kilograms of pig iron is only three silver naso, after the blacksmith processing and transformation, the labor cost is three silver naso, the low-level enchantment is at most one gold naso, the cost is full of only one gold and five silver, and the price of four gold naso forgive me for not accepting. ”。

"Sure enough, it's hard to deal with it after a long time. Murphy said to himself.

"It's okay old man, we have time to talk about it. Murphy said with a smile, his fingers tapping on the tabletop.
