Chapter 528, this business is too easy to do
On the other side, at the wharf where the Ping'an is located, the business of Wang Gensheng, Tang Mazi, Yao Ding and others is also in full swing, and they are also like other merchant ships, putting out their own things, and constantly comparing with each other to negotiate prices.
"My friend, how do you sell this mirror?"
A businessman wearing gold and silver, constantly looking in front of a full-length mirror, carefully admiring his beard, clothes, and the gold, silver and jewelry he wears, etc., the more he looks at it, the more satisfied he becomes, and he also likes this mirror quite much.
Mirrors, whether in the Ming Dynasty or in the West, or in other countries, have always been basically made of copper, and the Nanyang region is more influenced by the Ming Dynasty, and copper mirrors are used.
Bronze mirrors are very small, and it is impossible to say that the copper mirrors that make full-length mirrors come out, which are too expensive to make, and the requirements for the master's craftsmanship are very high.
The businessman in front of him fell in love with the full-length mirror in front of him at a glance, which was very clear and delicate, and what was even more rare was that he could shine on his whole body and let himself appreciate his wealth.
"This mirror is very expensive, and it is also a very expensive thing in our Daming."
Wang Gensheng saw that the businessman pointed to the mirror, and he couldn't understand the other party's words, so he also smiled and introduced, and then took out some small mirrors, some of which were the size of a palm, those that were packed in the dressing box, and the mirrors that were connected to the dresser, all kinds of styles.
"No, no, I just want this big mirror, this big mirror~"
"Don't worry, my friend, I have money, is this gold enough?"
When Kadan saw that the other party took out some small mirrors, he was suddenly slightly angry, who did he look down on, and he actually used some small mirrors to sell, I have money, so he immediately took out a money bag from his arms, and then took out two small gold nuggets, shook his head, and pointed to the full-length mirror and said.
"It's really rich, just dig out the gold~"
Tang Mazi looked at the gold he took out, and his eyes lit up.
"It seems that he means to buy this full-length mirror, the other mirrors are too small, don't want it~"
Shi Wenlong thought about it and said to Wang Gensheng, Tang Mazi and others.
"These two pieces of gold, they should look like five taels~"
Zhao Li looked at the gold in his hand and said with a slight estimate.
"No, no, my friend, this thing is too expensive, and your little bit of gold is not enough."
Wang Gensheng shook his head again and again and said, all kinds of glass products are still monopolized by Liu Jin, although the price has also dropped again and again, but it is still very expensive.
Especially this kind of full-length mirror, it is a symbol of large households, at the beginning the price was thousands of taels of silver, even if the price has been reduced a lot, a full-length mirror, its price is still hundreds of taels of silver, it is not at all ordinary families can afford it.
This kind of full-length mirror, they also didn't bring much goods over, because of limited funds, they couldn't bring too many of these expensive goods, so they brought more small mirrors, the purchase price was cheap, and it was better to sell, after all, there are always a few who have money.
"You make a price, my friend, gold is not a problem, I can let people take it immediately~"
Seeing that the other party shook his head again and again, Kadan also patted his chest and said, I have money, although you open your mouth, you immediately ordered his subordinates to go home and get gold and silver.
"At least how much we will sell to you~"
Wang Gensheng understood the meaning of the other party, and after thinking about it, he didn't know how to express it, so he remembered the Arabic numerals he had learned at Tianjin Maritime College, picked up a brush and wrote the number 1000 on a piece of paper.
"My friend, how much more will I sell you this full-length mirror."
Wang Gensheng pointed to the full-length mirror, and then pointed to the numbers on the paper and said.
"It's too expensive, it's too expensive, my friend, I'll give you 500 at most~"
Arabic numerals are spread in many places, and Kadan is a businessman, so he also knows this Arabic numerals, and he also picked up a brush and began to bargain on paper.
This kind of mirror, he also knows that it is very valuable, he has never seen such a clear mirror, and he has never seen such a large full-length mirror, which can see everything clearly.
"No, no, it has to be this number, we won't sell it if it's less~"
Hearing that the other party was willing to pay 500 numbers, that is, 2,500 taels of gold, Wang Gensheng and the others were actually happy in their hearts.
But who would dislike a lot of gold, so he kept shaking his head and said.
"I can only get up to 700 at most, and if it's more, I'd rather not."
When Kadan heard this, he immediately hesitated, this thing is really expensive, but he couldn't help but look at his handsome appearance of his jewels in the full-length mirror, gritted his teeth and opened a number and said.
"800, a fixed price, otherwise I'd rather not sell it~" 110 literature
Wang Gensheng thought about it and wrote out a number and said: "In the entire fleet, only the things here in my house are the cheapest, and the things of others will be more expensive." ”
"Well, my friend, 800 is 800, I bought it, who made me like this mirror too much."
Kadan thought about it and finally nodded, this full-length mirror seems to be very rare, very few all the way, and the full-length mirror in other places seems to have been matched by some old friends.
"My friend, do you want to see these things again~"
"It's all good stuff~"
successfully made a deal, Wang Gensheng, Tang Mazi, Yao Ding and others couldn't help but cheer.
A mirror, only a few hundred taels of silver was taken from Daming, and it was transported to Nanyang here, and it was able to sell for four thousand taels of gold, which is definitely a profitable deal.
"This money is too easy to make~"
Shi Wenlong couldn't help but sigh.
"In the past, we were tired and tired of digging on the ground, and we couldn't even eat a full meal at the end of the year, and this sea to do business, just to sell a mirror, the money we earned was enough for us to eat for the rest of our lives."
Yao Ding also said with some sighs.
They were all born in poverty, and they used to be digging in the ground, but by chance, they came to Nanyang and saw the prosperity and wealth outside.
"No wonder Liu Gongzi has always told us that outside the Ming Dynasty, there is wealth, some land, and some wealth, as long as we dare to go out bravely, eating and drinking spicy food is a casual thing."
"Eating and drinking spicy food, what is it, if we sell all these things, we can eat and drink for the rest of our lives~"
Several people continued to discuss with each other, and at the same time looked at Katan again, at the bustling port area, where every cargo ship was extremely busy.
There are many people who come to see the goods and see the excitement, and the sound of bargaining is very endless, and many of the people who have made the deal have the same faces as themselves, filled with excitement and smiles that are difficult to hide.
It's so profitable~
This is not only the thoughts in the minds of Wang Gensheng and Tang Mazi, but at this moment, in the entire port area, every Ming person thinks so.
From the person in charge of the trading house, down to every seafarer who came here, the guys of the trading house, etc., everyone really saw what it means to make huge profits and what it means to make a million profits.
When everyone sells something, they basically open their mouths casually, and they are shouting on the basis of ten, dozens of times, or even hundreds of times the purchase price.
Originally, I thought that these Sulu people would find it expensive and would not buy everyone's things, plus there were many merchant ships here, and the competition between them would be fierce.
But who knows, these Sulu people are very rich, although they will bargain, but the price of the transaction is still very satisfactory to everyone.
You must know that even if the lowest price is called, it is more than ten times the profit, not to mention some black-hearted ones, the price is very expensive, and the price sold is even more expensive, and the profit is even higher.
Daming's things are still very popular in Nanyang.
Ming silk, porcelain, tea, and all kinds of glass products, these things are all sought-after goods, almost every merchant ship here, these things are the hottest to sell.
Next is a variety of glass products, especially mirrors, all kinds of mirrors are very good, this kind of mirror can clearly reflect people, the price is very expensive, but still can't stop everyone from loving it.
All kinds of glass products, that is also a hot item, glass lamps, glass tea sets, glass tableware, etc., colorless glass looks like crystal and the top jade, gemstones, etc., very popular.
Snow salt from the Nagashi Salt Works and snow sugar from Ryukyu Castle are also very popular.
Salt is naturally not lacking in the Nanyang region, where there is a tradition of boiling salt by the sea, but top-quality salt without any impurities like snow salt is very scarce, and the price is also very expensive.
As soon as the snow salt was taken out, after someone tasted it, they immediately did not hesitate to spend a lot of money to buy it, this kind of snow salt is definitely a must-have for rich people.
The same is true for snow sugar, a grain of snow-white, snow-white snow candy, the sweetness is very high, and it is very pure, and the color is very beautiful.
Sugar, whether it is Daming or other countries outside, is the top luxury, something that only the real powerful can often eat.
Such a top-notch snow candy is very popular, and after a casual introduction, these rich people in Sulu also paid out of their pockets to buy these snow sugars.
This thing, not only can be enjoyed by yourself, but it can also be sold at a very high price, and it is a consumable, even if it is tuned, it will be fine, and after these Ming people go back, it will be difficult to buy such top-grade sugar again.
All kinds of things are very popular, so that these people who followed to Nanyang all laughed from ear to ear, this business is too easy to do.
