"What?" Chen Xu stopped and turned around.

"Master Hou, they asked about the purchase of enamel, I don't know how Your Majesty arranged it, if Your Majesty does not allow them to buy enamel, they want to buy more other items at the exhibition and bring them back!" Hu Shang asked cautiously.

"Well, Your Majesty has not yet decided on this matter, but Your Majesty has ordered to prepare a new enamel factory to increase the supply of enamel products, but this time I'm afraid it's too late, you tell them, this time it's better to take advantage of the exhibition to buy more other goods, so as not to run empty!" When asked about the matter, Chen Xu still patiently explained a few words.

"Thank you for telling me!" Hu Shang hurriedly thanked him.

After Hu Shang muttered, a group of Dawan people looked lonely and depressed, but they didn't dare to ask more, so they saluted Chen Xu and prepared to leave.

"Wait!" When a group of Dawan people came to the door, Chen Xu felt a little unbearable, after all, it was indeed not easy for these people to come all the way to the mountains and rivers, and they also gave Daqin ten sweaty and bloody horses, which was almost a bloodless business, and it was not good for Daqin's reputation to spread out like this.

"I don't know what else the Hou Ye commands?" A group of people stopped, and Hu Shang hurriedly asked in Zhongyuan dialect, which was quite fluent.

"No, Dawan is a guest from afar, although His Majesty has rewarded them with not a small number of items, but Ben Hou won them nine horses, so he also sent some gifts to express his gratitude, those soaps and alabaster outside the door are our latest products, used to wash and bathe and smear the skin, although the value is not high, but it is also a rare thing, it is a good thing that the West does not have, you tell them, Ben Hou gave them three boxes of soap and a box of alabaster, worth a thousand gold, easy to carry and not easy to damage, bring back must be loved by nobles and women... …”

"Wow~~" After Hu Shang finished translating, a group of Dawan people were instantly excited, and a group of businessmen knelt on the ground and kept kowtowing to express their gratitude.

Just now they had seen the leaflets distributed by the maid at the door, but because of their identity, they were driven away by a group of wealthy merchants and nobles from Daqin before they could get closer, and they just stood a few feet away and listened to Hu Shang translate the words of a few little ladies who demonstrated the products, and although Hu Shang had never seen soap himself, he had already heard of perfume, so he touted the soap and alabaster vigorously, and seduced a group of Dawan people to seduce their drool.

However, this kind of soap alabaster is the same as perfume, the yield is low and the quantity is small, it is made of the legendary flower essential oil, and even the rich and noble people in Xianyang and Daqin are not enough, and it will definitely not fall into the hands of ordinary Hu merchants, so Hu merchants persuaded them to die, and this heart is still honest to get some enamel or glass porcelain or other high-end goods to bring back to make a fortune.

But just when a group of people were extremely disappointed and couldn't even buy enamel, Qinghehou actually gave them three boxes of soap and a box of alabaster.

This happiness came too suddenly, and it smashed a group of Dawan people a little dizzy.

In the midst of a group of Dawan people's gratitude, Chen Xu instructed a steward to quickly prepare soap and alabaster cream, and after a moment's time, the steward brought a few helpers to carry three large and one small four wooden boxes over and put them in front of a group of Dawan people.

"These soaps and alabaster are a part of Benhou's heart, and I hope that after you return to Dawan, you will convey the hospitality of my Daqin to your monarch and people, and promote friendly trade between the two countries, you can go!" Chen Xu said a few words in a very official tone and then turned around and went upstairs, and a group of Dawan people thanked them again and again, and then carried four wooden boxes and cheered happily.

The matter of the Dawan people is just a small episode, this kind of thing can't be done by ordinary people, only these Dawan people who have just arrived in Xianyang don't know the height of the sky and the height of the sky rashly come to meet the Marquis of Qinghe.

And it worked.

Therefore, a group of Dawan people carried soap and alabaster out of the gate of Qinghe Shopping Mall, and were instantly surrounded by countless businessmen and wealthy people from all over the country who were wandering nearby.

And Hu Shang of the Western Regions, who had been with these Dawan people as guides, was also excited, and began to use his brains when he watched a group of fast Dawan merchants running with boxes.

Soap alabaster and perfume, in Daqin is an extremely scarce and in-demand commodity, Qinghe shopping malls are also sold on weekdays, but it doesn't matter or there are no acquaintances can not buy it at all, because as long as there is a stock instantly, it will be coaxed out by the people who have already booked, the whole Xianyang gathered princes and princes rich businessmen do not know how much, the wax paper wrapped in soap can not fall into the hands of these Hun Hu businessmen, perfume is even more luxurious, I heard that just to buy a crystal perfume bottle is hundreds of dollars, and the bottle with a spray cap is collected as a treasure by the buyer, I have only heard of it on the market and have never seen it at all, if anyone gets a magical spray technique to perform in the Quyuan Miscellaneous House, there will be countless people around in an instant to invite the girl to drink.

Moreover, I heard that the spray cap technology is exclusively used by Qinghe Shopping Mall, and the patent is not disclosed or transferred.

Anyway, the current situation is that all commodities related to floral essential oils are extremely scarce and in demand, expensive or cheap are secondary, and the important thing is that money can't buy them.

And now, these Dawan people have taken shit luck, and they recklessly ran to Qinghe Shopping Mall to squat, not only guarding Qinghehou, but also getting three boxes of soap and a box of alabaster out of thin air.

The opportunity was in front of him, and Hu Shang, who was a guide, felt that he was sorry for his ancestors and conscience if he didn't get something.

Is it to inform the people to click these Dawan people off halfway or to treat them gently?

All the way through the crowded exhibition site, Hu Shang also thought about seven or eight ways in his mind, and finally decided to be conservative and make a fortune, although the various ethnic groups in the Western Regions are better at it, but Daqin is not the Western Regions, the law here is strict, and if you accidentally expose your feet, you will definitely lose your life, and the interception and killing of the envoys of other countries will probably make the Qin Emperor thunderous, and may cause the disaster of destroying the country.

"Now that the Marquis of Qinghe has given you a few boxes of precious gifts, how do you plan to arrange them next!" Hu Shang asked the leader of the Dawan merchants in a low voice.

"Naturally, we should buy some goods quickly and return, now it is March, and there will be heavy snow in August, we must climb the plateau before the snow, otherwise we may be blocked in Shule, not to mention that such a precious goods are not ......safe to stay with for too long," the merchant leader's face was excited and a little worried.

"I also think so, these goods are precious and scarce in Great Qin, I heard that many of the emperor's concubines can't buy them, if the news spreads, someone will inevitably covet them!"

As soon as Hu Shang said this, a group of Dawan people instantly became nervous.

Since ancient times, wealth has moved people's hearts, for the law-abiding Central Plains people, and even more so for the barbaric Hu merchants in the Western Regions, robbery and killing people for goods is simply commonplace, and different tribes can kill you and live for a few sheep, not to mention this kind of precious things that gold can't buy.

"Hurry back to the post house and prepare, and tomorrow morning, I will say goodbye to Emperor Daqin and set off!" Dawan's envoy also became nervous.

"Great Qin, Wuhua Tianbao, Xianyang is such a prosperous and prosperous place, do you really stay for a few more days? Although it is thousands of miles away from Xianyang to Dawan, if it is enough to travel for almost four months, even if it is at the end of the month, it will definitely be able to cross the snow-capped mountain plateau before the heavy snow covers the mountain......" Hu Shang said after the butt of a group of trotting Dawans.

"I'd like to stay a few more days, or even a few years, but as you said, I'm afraid that someone will steal these goods after a long time......," said the caravan leader helplessly.

"I have a way to get rid of other people's covetousness, and I can get some enamel ......"

"Is that true?" Before Hu Shang's words were finished, he was surrounded by a group of Dawan people in surprise.

"Naturally, you may have less soap and alabaster in your hands!" Hu Shang nodded hurriedly.

"That's ......" the merchant leader pondered for a moment and then nodded, "It's okay, if we can get enamel, we can get one box of these four boxes of soap and alabaster back, although the soap and alabaster are precious, but they can only be used for bathing and smearing, I don't like to take a bath, only the nobles of the palace use it, and everything will be used up in a short time, it is far less than the enamel is strong and durable and sold at a high price, as long as you can help us get the enamel, we will divide you with half a box of soap and ten boxes of alabaster ......"

As a qualified merchant and caravan leader, he quickly understood what Hu Shang meant.

"Okay, it's refreshing!" Hu Shang excitedly gave a thumbs up and praised him, and then whispered in the ear of the leader of the Dawan merchants for two minutes.

"Are you sure you can buy enamel this way?" The merchant leader asked with a puzzled face.

"Don't worry, I've been in Xianyang for three years, and I have a deep friendship with many powerful Great Qin nobles, if it weren't for me today, how could I get the reward of the Marquis of Qinghe!" Hu Shang's face was slightly unhappy.

Seeing that Hu Shang seemed unhappy, the merchant leader hurriedly said with a smiling face: "Yes, yes, thank you for your help today, we can meet the Marquis of Qinghe, and we can get these precious rewards, and I will give you some soap later......"

"It's okay, you wait to go back to the post station as soon as possible to prepare, I'll go find someone, remember, a piece of soap plus two taels of gold for two pieces of enamel, this is the lowest price, if others want all the soap alabaster must not be agreed!"

"Rest assured, we can't make a mistake!" With the assurances of the leader of the Dawan merchants, Hu Shang soon left the group and joined the surging flow of people leading to the south gate of Xianyang.

"Gu Buli, don't you doubt this guy?" When Hu Shang couldn't see it, Dawan's envoy asked a little uneasily.

The merchant leader, who was quite extraordinary, calmed down and shook his head slightly: "If you don't agree to him, I'm afraid that something will really happen to this Xianyang who is not familiar with the place, not to mention that I have to go back to Dawan and pass through the countries of the Western Regions, those barbarians in the Western Regions are not kind people, give up their wealth to avoid disasters, if they can successfully transport the remaining soap and alabaster back to Dawan, it is still cost-effective, if he can really help us get some more enamel, even if the task of this trip to trade is successfully completed, I will be rewarded by the king after I go back, In the future, the trade exchanges with Daqin will not all be in our hands, and it will be difficult to make a fortune! ”

"Haha, you're right, let's go, go back to the post station and prepare!" The Dawan envoy was excited, urging a group of Dawan people to hurry back to the city with four boxes.

And that Hu Shang really didn't lie, and after going out to work for half an hour, he really brought back two men in robes who described him as a little sneaky, saying that he had the enamel that the Dawan people wanted in his hands.

After the envoy was overjoyed and invited the two men into the room of the post house, the two men lifted their robes and took out a military kettle, an enamel tea jar, an enamel pot, and even an enamel bowl from their bodies.

These enamel products are the same as those seen by Dawan people, and there are red five-star marks and small seal marks of the red star enamel factory on the outside, which are indeed the goods they are eager to buy.

A group of Dawan people held these beautifully made enamel products to watch, discuss, and play.

The two men also watched the soap and alabaster used by the Dawan people to exchange enamel, and after some fierce bargaining, the two sides reached an agreement that the Dawan people exchanged a piece of soap and two taels of gold from the two men for an enamel tableware and a military kettle, and made an appointment on the place and method of the transaction.

"By the way, let me finally remind you that these enamels belong to military supplies in Daqin, and you can't transport them out of Daqin through normal channels, otherwise they will be confiscated by officials of the Department of Commerce, and if the amount is too large, they will be arrested and imprisoned for smuggling!" After the negotiation, the two men kindly reminded them when they were about to leave.

"Ah, how is this good?" After listening to Hu Shang's translation, a group of Dawan people were instantly stunned, and their faces became frightened.

"Don't be anxious, since they reminded us, maybe there is a way to avoid the inspection of the officials of the Department of Commerce, let me help you ask?" Hu Shang comforted the group of people and said a few words, then turned his head and began to communicate with the two men, and after ten minutes, the two sides seemed to have reached an agreement.

"Ladies and gentlemen, they do have a way to avoid the inspection of the officials of the Department of Commerce, but they need to use money to open the joints up and down, and there are a lot of enamels in this batch, so they spend a lot of money, if you are willing to give you another twenty taels ......of gold, they can help you dredge the joints and send the goods out of Daqin smoothly," Hu Shang began to explain to a group of Dawan people again.

After listening to this, Dawan muttered and quickly nodded in agreement after discussion.

Around noon, a group of Dawan people, led by Hu Shang and his guide, went to an abandoned pottery workshop in the north of the city, and the two men had already brought a large cart of enamel, just like the underground drug and arms trade in later generations, and each side checked the amount of goods and money of the other.

"Seeing that this mark is not ......" a man took out one of the enamels he brought, pointed to the blue seals in italics of 'defective products' on it, and explained, "As long as you have this mark, you can blatantly transport these enamels out of Daqin, and the officials of the Department of Commerce and the officials of the border gates will not embarrass you, don't underestimate this mark, only the Supervision and Construction Department of the Ministry of Industry can inspect and seal it, and we will cover it everywhere, and it will cost a lot of money!" ”

"Thank you, thank you, next time we come to Daqin, we will still ask you to buy enamel, and the price will definitely satisfy you!" A group of Dawan people happily closed their mouths, carefully inspected a car of enamel, and sure enough, each piece was marked with defective products, so they happily delivered a box and a half of soap, half a box of alabaster and a full four hundred taels of gold plus twenty taels of dotting fees.

After the transaction was completed, the two men rushed away in a carriage, and the Dawan people also happily packed the enamel and bundled it back to the post house.
