Chapter 110: The magic weapon of price increase
After beating Li Dang, who was unwilling to cooperate, into the Jimo City Prison, Li Fu hurriedly returned and returned to Bai Mingzhe.
Jimo County Shou Mansion,
Bai Mingzhe poured a bowl of water for Li Fu, and then listened quietly to the news of the three uninvited guests.
After getting along for a long time, Li Fu was no longer restrained in the face of Bai Mingzhe, he sat on the ground with his buttocks, and said with a big grin: "General Nanzhong, I was really said by Jun, Longxi, Beidi, and Yanmen couldn't wait to send people in order to get salt." Moreover, the people they sent were not simple. ”
"Who is the person sent by Longxi? Li Jiao? ”
"Nope. It's his younger brother Li Kang! ”
"Li Dare?" A hint of surprise flashed in Bai Mingzhe's eyes, "General Li Guang's heart is also big enough. Li Dang hasn't been crowned yet, right? The thousands of miles from Longxi to Jiaodong is probably not only the road for transporting salt in Longxi, but also the road for General Li to test his son! ”
"Harm!" Li Fu supported the ground with his palms, pointed his fingers behind him, and leaned back, "Brother Guang has seen the temper of Daxing'er, maybe he intends to temper and temper Dare'er's heart, and he is worried that he will suffer a loss." ”
"Well, it's good to temper and temper, and the province has provoked people who shouldn't be messed with." Bai Mingzhe nodded, he agreed with this very much.
Others don't know, but he knows very well the extent of Li Dang's unruliness.
According to historical records, Wei Qing became a general of the chariot cavalry, and when the sun was in full swing, after Li Dang heard that Li Guangzhi's death was related to Wei Qing, he beat Wei Qing without saying a word, and at the same time, he also laid the groundwork for his death.
Beat up the general of the cavalry?
Throughout the ages, this guy is the first!
Although Wei Qing is reluctant to pursue it, there is a nephew who is similar to Li Dang and is as unruly as Huo Quai!
No, taking the opportunity of hunting, Huo Quzhi released a cold arrow and directly killed Li Kang.
If Li dared to live and had a stronger heart, I am afraid that there would be no matter of Li Ling surrendering to the Xiongnu in the future.
Thinking of this, Bai Mingzhe sighed and sighed secretly: Li Guang is really unlucky.
The eldest son and the second son died early, not to mention, the younger son was shot to death, and the grandson, because he was wronged, directly surrendered to the Huns.
One of the most tragic families of the Western Han Dynasty.
Bai Mingzhe advised: "Li Fu, I know that you have correspondence with Longxi. Please tell General Li Guang that Li Kang's heart still needs to be tempered. Ben hopes that by the time he meets him on the battlefield, he will be able to stand on his own. ”
Li Fu sat down and arched his hand, "The last general is Brother Guang, Li Dang's nephew, General Xie's high hopes!" ”
"No need to be polite." Bai Mingzhe waved his hand, "That...... Who was sent by Yanmen? ”
Although he had only seen one time just now, Li Fu had already clearly remembered the middle-aged man with the face of the Chinese character, so he said: "Hedong Zhang Cigong!"
"Oh, it was him." Bai Mingzhe put his right hand against his chin and whispered: "Zhang Cigong, I don't know if he is greedy for money or not, but I know a little, this guy is lustful." In this way, when discussing business with him, you will send two beautiful women a day in advance, but the wind blows in his ears in his room, and let him increase the price! ”
"Uh-uh-uh." The corners of Li Fu's mouth twitched wildly, "General, will this work?" ”
Isn't it too authentic to use a girl to raise the price?
"This is called a beauty trick, it will definitely work!" Bai Mingzhe smiled treacherously, "Anyway, Chang'an pays for it, and we are just raising the price." Besides, I have already discussed with Your Majesty that the profits obtained by Jiaodong, Nanzhong Army will leave thirty percent as military expenses, and the rest will be owned by Chang'an. Every three months, the Nan Zhong Army calculated the income from the merchants, and sent the excess profits to Chang'an to supplement the loss of Chang'an's payment. ”
Bai Mingzhe got up, walked to Li Fu, sat on the ground with his ass, patted the other party's shoulder, and smiled slyly, "As soon as this money goes in and out, Chang'an makes a lot of money, and Wunan Zhongjun makes a lot of money. No matter how you look at it, Longxi doesn't lose, right? ”
"Besides...... Don't forget, at the blacksmith of the Nanzhong Army, there is also a set of sharp weapons on horses. ”
"Longxi has inconvenient transportation and low iron ore content, so even if you master the production method, there is no raw material available. If the bronze is soft, if it is replaced, it is not only extremely easy to wear, but also expensive. ”
Bai Mingzhe's voice was like a devil's whisper, "Longxi wants a lot of equipment, and it definitely needs more military spending!" Let Yanmen cut military spending, won't Longxi's military spending be raised? ”
After being assimilated by Bai Mingzhe for a long time, Li Fu now also has the idea that a friend of the dead Dao is not a dead poor Dao, so he nodded, "Well, the general has a point. ”
"Hey, hey, Li Gong, it's imperative to negotiate the price with those three people." Bai Mingzhe glanced at the silk book spread on the desk, to be precise, glanced at the distribution map of the iron ore on it, and said softly: "Ships, the Mo family has already built nine times, and there are a large number of iron mines and coal mines in the west of Wei's Korea, where the Wunan Zhong Army is about to march. As long as this battle is fought, the Nanzhong army will no longer be short of money. However, the premise is that the military expenditure is sufficient and the follow-up supplies are sufficient. ”
"For the sake of the future of the Nan Zhong Army, I hope that Li Gong will spare no effort to ask for a price! With horseshoes and stirrups to support, even if the asking price exceeds the market price, those three borders will be 'willingly' paid! ”
He knew the generals on the border too well.
The horseshoe and stirrup, the two great horse artifacts, can allow them to obtain a lot of military merits in a short period of time, and can give them the confidence to take the initiative to attack the Huns, there is no reason why they don't want to!
Even if you know that you will suffer a loss if you buy salt at a high price, you have to be willing to greet you with a smile.
As for the businessmen as middlemen, Bai Mingzhe's original intention was to hope that they would develop into the express delivery service industry.
Let a small part of the merchant's profit come from salt, and most of the profit comes from the profit from transportation!
Li Fu pondered Bai Mingzhe's words and asked in a deep voice: "General, although the lowly position does not mind selling at a high price, if the price is too good, it will definitely offend all the border gates. Although they don't say it on the surface, they must be dissatisfied in their hearts. Dare to ask, what is the upper limit of the price? ”
"Wu Nan Zhongjun will not mention the price ceiling first, let them make a price first! If they offer too low, then ...... Tell them bluntly that the price cannot be less than four hundred and twenty dollars! Back then, Jiaodong coarse salt was almost at this price, and they didn't suffer too much! ”
"Of course, if they feel that Chang'an can't come up with so much money for a while, I can promise them to collect the money in installments."
"Installments?"
"That's right! Pay in four installments, each time 30% of the purchase price! ”
Li Fu's eyes lit up, and he suddenly realized, "What an installment!" Invisibly increase the price by two! The way of business warfare is terrifying! ”
