Chapter 214, Zhang Mao's trick

Stinky boy, stinky boy~"

Then Liu Jin had just begun to think about his next move, and a hearty voice came from outside.

"English duke?"

As soon as Liu Jin heard this voice, he knew who it was, and now the only ones who would call him like this were Zhang Mao and Zhou Jing, so he also hurriedly got up and walked outside.

I saw Zhang Mao in civilian clothes, followed by a few people in extraordinary clothes, looking at the demeanor and bearing of these people, plus Zhang Mao talking and laughing with each other, I think most of them are also noble.

"I've seen Gong Zhang."

Liu Jin smiled and said with Zhang Mao bowing his hand.

"Come, I'll introduce you."

Zhang Mao smiled and began to introduce the people on the side.

"This is Zhu Fu, the Duke of Chengguo."

Zhang Mao pointed to a middle-aged man on the side and said, this Zhu Furen is very good-looking, dignified, coupled with a luxurious dress, and the bearing of a national prince, he will definitely be a proper girl and a killer in the future generations.

"I've seen Cheng Guogong."

Liu Jin smiled and bowed his hand in salute.

"Haha, Liu Gongzi doesn't have to be polite, just call me Lao Zhu."

Zhu Fu is very easy-going, there is no arrogance, of course, it may also be because of Zhang Mao's relationship, so he has a good impression of Liu Jin.

"This is Xu Guangzuo, the grandson of the old man of Dingguo."

Zhang Mao quickly pointed to a young man in his twenties on the side and said, this person turned out to be the descendant of Xu Da, the king of Zhongshan, which made Liu Jin couldn't help but take a closer look.

From later generations, Xu Da's name is naturally like thunder, he is the most successful one among the founding heroes of the Ming Dynasty, before his death was the prince of the country, and after his death, he was posthumously crowned as the king, and the two princes of the two countries said that they were the descendants of Xu Da, and they were also the only ones in the Ming Dynasty.

But Xu Guangzuo in front of him didn't look like a descendant of a military general, but more like a weak scholar, neither tall nor strong.

"I've seen Xu Gongzi."

Liu Jin greeted Xu Guangzuo with a smile.

"Liu Gongzi is polite."

Xu Guangzuo is also relatively easy-going, without any arrogance, and gentle and elegant.

After introducing each other, Liu Jin also took a few people to the living room, drinking tea and chatting at the same time.

"Stinky boy, I won't talk nonsense, this time the three of us came together to buy a boat for you."

After a visit, Zhang Mao also said straight to the point.

The three of them hurried over from the capital, naturally not to come to enjoy the mountains and rivers, but to make a fortune.

"Buying a boat?"

When Liu Jin heard this, he was slightly surprised, because Zhang Mao had already ordered three fishing boats from him last time, but he didn't expect that it would only be a few days, and he came to buy a boat for himself again.

"Yes, buy a boat."

Zhang Mao nodded solemnly, then thought about it and said: "I want to buy a few big boats, not the kind that go to sea to fish, but the kind that can go to sea to do business." ”

The last time he was in Tianjin, he saw with his own eyes that the fleet returning from North Korea brought back three million taels of silver, and the boxes and boxes of silver not only dazzled his eyes, but also made Zhang Mao's eyes red.

So as soon as he returned to the capital, he immediately contacted some other key friends and nobles, and everyone discussed that they would also scrape together money and find Liu Jin to buy a few sea ships to go to sea to do business.

In the past, they didn't know that this sea trade made money, but now that they see the huge profits of sea trade, they naturally can't be calm, so the leaders of the three military generals and nobles have come to Tianjin.

As soon as Liu Jin heard this, he immediately understood, and then looked at Zhang Mao, Zhu Fu, and Xu Guangzuo, and it was clear in an instant that they must be jealous of the huge profits of this sea trade, and they couldn't calm down.

Of course, this is what Liu Jin wants to see, only when more and more people participate, the power to push open the sea gate will become greater and greater, and the strength of these generals and nobles can naturally not be ignored.

"Zhang Gong, that kind of ship is expensive."

Liu Jin thought about it and replied.

"Stinky boy, just say it."

Zhang Mao looked at Liu Jin, he was already ready to be slaughtered.

There is no way, if you want to eat and drink spicy food, the investment of this premise is indispensable.

Of course, Zhang Mao is also an old fox, knowing that the major shareholder of this shipyard is the prince Zhu Houzhao, and ordering a ship here is also tantamount to currying favor with the prince and the future Emperor of the Ming Dynasty.

"One hundred thousand taels, no two prices."

Liu Jin gently quoted a price.

As soon as his words fell, Zhang Mao couldn't help but raise his eyebrows, Zhu Fu's eyes widened slightly, and Xu Guangzuo's mouth widened slightly.

This price is just too expensive, not ordinary.

Even though they are representatives of military generals and nobles, they are all from the family of the Duke of the Kingdom, but when they hear this price, they still feel very expensive, and it is conceivable that Liu Jin's asking price is really expensive.

There is no way to build a ship, building a ship is a technical job, and the cultivation of this talent requires time and investment, and if the ship is not expensive, there is no way to maintain it.

"Stinky boy, this price is too expensive, as far as I know, this lucky ship will cost no more than a few thousand taels of silver, and your ship sells for 100,000 taels, too expensive, too expensive."

Zhang Mao shook his head again and again, although he had already been ready to be slaughtered, but when he heard this price, it was still difficult to accept.

"Zhang Gong, I admit that the price is indeed expensive, but this ocean-going ship is different from the general ship, the sea-building ship has extremely strict requirements from the selection of materials, preparation, materials, ship structure, design, etc., and even the paint on the ship, it has its own requirements, not just any kind of it."

Liu Jin nodded, and admitted that the price was very expensive, but Liu Jin also knew that he should never negotiate the price with the customer, but talk to him about the value.

"Gong Zhang, you also saw it last time, my fleet only went down here for half a month, and brought back three million taels of silver with a boatload of glass products."

"I'll tell you the truth, in addition to the seamen's wages, bonuses and glass costs, the profit of this profit is also two million taels, and this is just a trip to North Korea, if you go to the Japanese country, go to a more distant place, this profit will be even greater."

"So don't look at the price of my ship, but it's definitely worth the money, and you can earn it back with profits on a trip to North Korea."

Hearing Liu Jin's words, Zhang Mao, Zhu Fu, and Xu Guangzuo's eyes flashed, and they earned two million taels of silver from a trip to North Korea, which was really blushing.

"Having said that, but your price is too expensive, for the sake of me introducing you to my wife, let's be cheaper."

Zhang Mao thought about it and said with a bargain.

β€œβ€¦β€¦β€

When Liu Jin heard this, he was speechless, this Zhang Mao was only mentioned last time, and now he has not introduced it at all, he can take it out and bargain, and he really has nothing to say.

"Zhang Gong, this really can't be cheap."

"But if you want to go to the ocean, I can allow you to go to Tianjin Maritime College to recruit people, only seafarers who graduated from Tianjin or the academy can really sail to the sea, this is always okay, make sure you invest this money, you will definitely not lose money, there will only be a lot of silver."

It is naturally impossible to reduce the price, but it can solve the employment problem of the Maritime Academy, the first batch of colleges to go to the Golden Continent, and then batch after batch of enrollment, these students will naturally have to find a job after graduation.

He, the principal, naturally wants to find a way out for his students.

Zhang Mao, Zhu Fu, and Xu Guangzuo glanced at each other, and nodded slightly, obviously there is no way, although the price is expensive, but this reassuring ship is only available here, and it also protects the seafarers, saving a lot of worry.

"Okay then, it's no problem to sell me three, right?"

Zhang Mao nodded and agreed to the price, although he could find a way to get a lucky boat, but to be honest, if Liu Jin didn't handle it, he was really not at ease.

Although the ship on Liu Jin's side is expensive, he is very relieved that he has something to handle, and he only needs to follow the road that Liu Jin has walked to make a fortune, save trouble, and be stable.

"Three is too many, I can only sell you two."

When Liu Jin heard this, he immediately shook his head and said, good things are said to be properly engaged in hunger marketing, not to mention that it is not easy to build this sea ship, and if it is sold all at once, there is no room for him.

"Stinky boy, the price can't be less, and this boat won't sell me more, and you're doing business, do you want me to introduce you to a wife?"

When Zhang Mao heard this, he couldn't help but say.

β€œβ€¦ Zhang Gong, it's not that he refuses to sell the ship to you, the main thing is that this big ship to go to sea is difficult to build, not to mention that Zhang Gong has invested too much this time, and the risk is also big, isn't it, let's take our time first, and it's not too late to buy a few more ships when we make money. ”

Liu Jin was speechless again, this Zhang felt that he had been going to use this introduction of his wife to scare himself, as if he was the one who couldn't find his wife.

"Lao Zhang, I think it's okay to order two, and three at once, it's really too much."

Zhu Fu thought about it and said to Zhang Mao, and Xu Guangzuo on the side also nodded in support.

"Alright then, let's order two, you kid should build me the ship as soon as possible."

Zhang Mao nodded helplessly, and then said: "When you build a boat for me, I will introduce you to the beautiful ladies who are like flowers and jade." ”

β€œβ€¦ I would like to thank you in advance. ”

Liu Jin was speechless again.

Not long after several people agreed on buying a boat, Zhao Erhu hurriedly walked in and said to Liu Jin: "Brother Jin, there are two groups of people outside who have sent a post, one is Jianchangbo and Shou Ninghou, and the other is Changningbo Zhou Yu. ”

"Jianchangbo and Shou Ninghou?"

"Changning Bo Zhou Yu?"

When Liu Jin heard this, his eyebrows immediately changed slightly, it seems that there are many people who smell blood, and they all want to come and eat.
