Section 399 Large-scale acquisition of sandalwood

Chen Rui stood up and asked the sandalwood merchant, "vkogklfoibf."

This is the Phoenician language, which means to ask the sandalwood merchant what the price of the wood is.

This is what Chen Ruigang learned.

After practicing the Immortal Cultivation Method, Chen Rui's mind was very flexible, and he learned the language very quickly.

When the sandalwood merchant saw the business coming, he smiled and said, "kovrjfjod."

That is, 20 gold mats and 60 silver pesos a mina.

Here, ordinary wood can be bought for 1 mina for just a few silver pesos.

Sandalwood is 20 gold mats and 60 silver pesos a mina, which is a very valuable wood.

Chen Rui knew that one meter was the Phoenician unit of volumetric measurement.

One meter is equivalent to about 4 square meters.

Chen Rui said, "I need a lot of 20 gold and one meter. ”

"The price is negotiable, how much you need." Sandalwood merchant said.

"How much you have, how much I need." Chen Rui said.

"20 Jinmat, yes, deal." The Sandalwood Merchant laughed so hard that his mouth cracked, "Distinguished guest, please come with me." ”

This big business allowed him to earn more than 200 gold mats.

You must know that the little nobleman Aster owns a farm, a manor, a forest, a lake, a sugar plantation, a grain shop, and an annual income of only 120 Jinmat.

One Jinmat is equivalent to the income of an ordinary household for several months.

Chen Rui followed the sandalwood merchant to a warehouse next to the market.

The sandalwood merchant opens the warehouse door with a key.

A strong smell of sandalwood came to his nose, and the smell was very mellow, which made Chen Rui feel refreshed.

"Distinguished guests. It's all here. Sandalwood said. A total of 55 mina. You'll need to pay me 1,100 gold mats, and all the wood is yours. ”

Chen Rui didn't answer, walked into the warehouse and took a look, sandalwood was no problem, all of it was the best sandalwood.

Another rough estimate of the eyes, 55 meters, equivalent to 220 square meters, the wood here is almost this value.

In fact. Chen Rui didn't need to worry about these problems at all.

Phoenician commerce is very developed, attaches great importance to business, Phoenician people pay great attention to business ethics, reputation, almost every Phoenician businessman from the beginning of business, the business reputation, business ethics these are imprinted into the bones, never thought of a shortage of pounds and two, with fakes or inferior things to pit others or something.

There is no such thing as a profiteer.

Even if he is a businessman with a very low character and wants to write a bastard on his forehead, he will never violate business ethics. Business reputation.

The sandalwood incense merchant said that all the wood here is sandalwood, which is sandalwood, and will never mix some ordinary wood with sandalwood. Come and deceive others.

The sandalwood merchant said that 55 mina is 55 mina, only more, not less, even if it is less than 1 mina.

After seeing that there was no problem, Chen Rui nodded and said to the sandalwood merchant, "Deal, you are responsible for helping me transport it." ”

"No problem." The Sandalwood Merchant said cheerfully.

"Can you pay in gold?" Chen Rui asked.

It takes 1,100 gold matts to buy this batch of sandalwood, and Chen Rui doesn't have so many gold coins, but there are hundreds of tons of gold in the pregnant sea pearl space, all of which are minted into 12.5 kilograms of gold nuggets without any signs and gold bars ranging from 100 grams, 300 grams, and 500 grams.

"Absolutely." The Sandalwood Merchant said, "You need to pay 1,320 lira in gold." ”

Chen Rui knew that the lira was an important unit of the Phoenicians.

One lira is equivalent to about 32 grams.

One gold Matt coin weighs about 1.2 lira.

In this way, Chen Rui needs to pay 1320*32,42240 grams of gold.

More than 42 kilograms of gold to buy 220 square meters of the best sandalwood, which is simply the price of cabbage.

The current price of gold is 235 yuan a gram.

42,240 grams * 235 = 9,926,400, less than 10 million yuan.

10 million yuan at the current price of the best rosewood, you can only buy a table and 4 chairs.

But here, you can buy 220 square meters of the best sandalwood.

How much is 220 squares, a simple analogy.

A truck carrying timber weighs 45 tons and has an estimated volume of about 40 square meters, and when it is loaded into more than the carriage, the estimated volume is about 50 square meters.

220 square meters is equal to 5 trucks of the best sandalwood, I don't know how many tables and chairs can be made into these woods, how much they can be sold for, and it is simply explosive to get it on the earth.

The two agreed to make a deal.

Chen Rui went to rent a warehouse first.

Then, he took three gold bricks and a few gold bars from the pregnant Haizhu space, and made up more than 42 kilograms of gold and wrapped them in cloth.

Then go to the trading market and find the sandalwood merchant.

The sandalwood merchant found dozens of porters.

He earned more than 200 gold for this big business, and he didn't care about the wages of dozens of porters for less than 20 silver pesos.

The sandalwood merchant ordered the porters to move the sandalwood from the warehouse to the warehouse designated by Chen Rui.

Chen Rui and the sandalwood merchant were chatting on the side.

The sandalwood merchant is called Akso, a timber merchant, mainly dealing in valuable timber, compared to ordinary wood loaded into a ship from the timber production area to the city, the profit is less than 5 gold mat, and the profit from selling sandalwood is about this amount, and like this time, when I met Chen Rui, a big high roller, the profit was more than 200 gold mat.

Chen Rui said to Akso, "In the future, once every six months, sandalwood, including other valuable wood, have as many as you want, and I want as much as I want, and the price will be at the current value." ”

Hearing this, Axol's mouth smiled crookedly, "Okay, no problem." ”

It's a rare encounter with a big high-roller who has already considered desperately buying sandalwood from the timber merchants downstream.

Sandalwood is very difficult to grow, not hundreds of years can not be made, coupled with the sandalwood wood hard, heavy, slender and floating texture, deep color, but also with a mellow sandalwood smell, people are refreshing, by the aristocracy, rich businessmen sought after, no matter on the earth, or here, sandalwood is very scarce.

Sandalwood is also very scarce here, and now only three jungles have sandalwood, and it is very difficult to cut down and transport it out of the deep mountain old forest.

This is also the reason why ordinary wood is only a few silver pesos a meter, while sandalwood costs 20 gold matt and 60 silver pesos for a meter.

20 gold mats 60 silver pesos a mila, only the big nobles, rich businessmen can afford it.

After the handling is completed.

Chen Rui's gold was handed over to Aksol. (To be continued......)
