Chapter 9: Hope Dashed

Ruyi's crisp voice is very good, casually said 140 Wen, this simple number, such as a stick on the head, smashed Zhao Xin is a little blindfolded, preliminary research card system, to upgrade, need money, need a lot of money, think about relying on the card to make money, who knows, the reality has given him a huge impact, need to use 150 stationery to show out of the ceramics, in the store only sell 140 Wen, according to the market price there is no profit, let alone the purchase price of large quantities, is there such a sad urging, What is this embodied pricing, even the goods of the Song Dynasty can't be compared, isn't it the technology of the 32nd century, why is it so bad?

There is still a glimmer of hope in Zhao confidence, children may not remember clearly, porcelain this thing, the same shape, is also divided into different categories, what firing process, the type of porcelain, a slight difference is a thousand miles, this porcelain, but the graphics are similar to those in the Ruyi home, quality, such as the high-end of Yijia, different types, quality ceramics, the price is very different, this point, after the archaeological edification of later generations, he is very understanding.

Keeping the hope of meaning, next, Zhao Xin was a little absent-minded, Ruyi and Green Lotus didn't bother much, just waited beside him, about 9 o'clock in the morning, Wang Song came, every day as a routine, came to pay attention to Zhao Xin's situation, such as how to eat, how to sleep, whether there is any uncomfortable place, in short, pay attention to the extreme, chattering words, let Wang Song become a mother-in-law, keep talking.

Because of Ruyi's answer, he was a little uneasy, he perfunctory Wang Song, pretending to be chatting, asking the price of this set of things, Wang Song looked at these porcelain, I don't know what Zhao Xin's purpose is in asking these, or he gave an exact answer, which is similar to what the little girl said, and it should be more accurate. This is a very ordinary porcelain, which will be produced in many places, and is one of the most common kinds of porcelain among the folk kilns.

The market of Bianliang is 155 Wen, the price near the canal is almost like this, at most the difference of one or two Wen, the price is relatively stable, the origin is cheaper, between 130-145, there is a porcelain kiln near Ruyi's home, the transportation is not added a lot, relatively low, a little remote place, inconvenient places, a little higher.

Porcelain is different from grain, itself is relatively light, a single set, can add freight is not high, such a porcelain, to the frontier, will not exceed 170 Wen. The only priceless is to go abroad, things are scarce, in the Great Song Dynasty, porcelain that can be seen everywhere, in the Liao Kingdom and Western Xia, it is a relatively scarce commodity, it will be a little more expensive, it may turn over two or three times, and it is even possible to be semi-coherent or even consistent.

Wang Song is so serious, Zhao Xin is even more helpless, of course he knows that the runway foreign prices are high, not to mention the Western Xia and Liao, where the Song Dynasty is closer, such porcelain can also be seen, more distant Europa, the price of porcelain is probably a hundred times that of the Song Dynasty, or even hundreds of times, the distant sea frontier, in the Age of Discovery, porcelain from China to Europe, either through the ancient Silk Road, or through the southern seaports, transported to Southeast Asia, India, through Arabia, in the Middle East by land, gradually spread to Europa, the long distance, coupled with the fragility of porcelain, the final price will rise to the sky.

This is completely meaningless for Zhao Xin, not to mention the far side of Europa, in the navigation technology has not developed on a large scale, under the premise that surveying technology and navigation tools have not appeared, it is almost impossible to reach the place, even if it is Liao and Western Xia, it is also an elusive dream, whether it is identity, or age, Zhao Xin can not go over, always can not make this in a remote place of the runway, gross profit 20 Wen, can not be compared with other commodities, remote areas, most of them are relatively poor places, There wasn't much sales in the past, so selling a few sets and earning a few hundred wen was not a waste of time.

Now the population of the entire Song Dynasty is concentrated around the canal and the south of the Yangtze River, and it is made out, with a gross profit of 5 Wen, not counting the cost of sales, you put it in the store to sell, there must be a profit, and a fool will sell it to you if there is no profit, the only good point is to run to Liao or Western Xia, which is not realistic, no matter how dangerous it is, Renzong will not let him run over there.

Wang Song is very familiar with general affairs, Zhao Xin came to be interested, and continued to ask about some things about the price, Wang Song answered one by one, according to the difficulty of production, as well as the value of the item itself, most of the things, are more expensive than the market price 5% to 30%, this is calculated, according to the freight and profit to evaluate, it is almost more than twice as expensive, except for remote areas, or areas with underdeveloped transportation, if there is a little profit, other profits are very small, and the same is true for basic raw materials, which makes Zhao Xin disillusioned, The fortune plan is over, and this common card can't be used to make a fortune.

I didn't want to use the spare tire of soap, it seems that there is no way, rather than embodying some porcelain and the like, making a meager difference, it is better to rely on chemistry to make money, chemistry at the beginning of high school, in the Song Dynasty, which has no chemical foundation at all, is also an absolute gold hand, especially soap, which is an indispensable industrial product for most families.

Soon, Zhao Xin regained his confidence, making a fortune was a whim, that was to prepare for the future, how could the traverser be stumped because of money, not to mention a big killer like soap glass, even if it was something simple, it could make him make a fortune, but it was a little more troublesome than the embodiment of the present, and it also took a longer time to invest a certain amount of energy.

The road to making a fortune has been blocked, and it can not be said that it has been blocked, and there is a certain role, the strength of the ordinary card is stability, such a card, can be used in an emergency, for example, grain, the market price of a stone of rice is 600 Wen, the price of the current is 800 Wen, this is the price of grain just down, until now in October, the fluctuation is not large, but after a few months, the price fluctuates hugely, Bianliang in ordinary years, a stone of grain is about 600 Wen, when the green and yellow are not connected, Grain will rise to 1 to 200 Wen, which can be doubled, and when it comes to floods and droughts, it will be even more boundless, three or five times is also there, and 10 times has also appeared.

According to the rules of the card, the card manifestation is constant, price stability has always been the most important thing in a mature country, large fluctuations in prices, will produce violent turmoil, the powerful industrial polity, far from the feudal society can be compared, there are large-scale disasters, as long as it is not of a national nature, will not cause large fluctuations in prices.

This constant price is a huge advantage, in the green and yellow, or before the grain comes down, the price will be very high, and it also has the value of selling, not to mention the border pass, the food is scarce, it is possible to multiply 10 times, Shaanxi a bucket of white rice is as high as 100 Wen, 20 times faster than ordinary rice, the reason is very simple, on the one hand, it is a side plug, and it does not produce rice, from the south of the Yangtze River to Bianliang, because there is the Beijing-Hangzhou Grand Canal, it is a lot more convenient, and then to the border pass, the road is far away, sometimes the grain of a stone is transported, and it costs three or five stones, The price of grain is much more expensive, but it is the border of Liaosong and Song, it is not so expensive, the relationship between the Beijing-Hangzhou Grand Canal, the transportation cost is far lower than that of land transportation, the price of grain may be a little higher, the high is quite limited, that is to say, the actual grain in Baozhou, the same unrealistic, can not make too much money, unless changed to Longxi.

Disillusioned, Zhao Xin asked Wang Song to look for some iron materials and copper coins and the like, and made a certain comparison, mainly to see the difference between providing materials and not providing, after providing materials, the time will be greatly reduced, about 40-70%, and the amount has also been reduced, which looks exciting, and the use of materials is a very good direction. After careful calculation, Zhao Xin's illusions were shattered again, what was reduced was the price of the material itself, as for the cost of handwork, or the previous proportion, obviously, I don't know if he was unlucky or something else, in this time and space, this card does not have much interest with the outside world, that is, the ex-factory price of 20%-50% of the increase, if the material is provided, it will be reduced to 5-30%, except for a small number of large fluctuations, there is no operating value at all, the fluctuations are relatively large, and it is not a long-term business, It can only be done at a specific time, and it is not possible to obtain long-term benefits.
