208 Medicine in the gourd
“…… To tell the truth, the poverty of the eastern Liaodong tribe is more due to the unfavorable geographical environment, but more of it is that the tribes are fighting day by day, and there is no day of peace. ”
In the reception hall of the Itong Ministry, it was as warm as a summer day, and a group of people sat opposite each other and talked closely with each other.
"Of course, as businessmen, we will not go into too much detail about the local bad habits, since we are doing business, I think the patriarch can also understand that we businessmen value profits."
"In fact, during these days, we have traded with the Sakchi Patriarch and other tribes, but we have found that our Liaodong is actually not the hard appearance it shows on the surface, but can have another thing to do."
"This is a plan formulated by our Qixintang and Nanyang Chamber of Commerce, according to the plan formulated by our Liaodong environment, I will describe it to the patriarch and the generals on my behalf."
Although they have a good relationship with Hongmen, and even many of their nobles can speak Chinese that is not fluent, but can also communicate normally, but there is basically no trace of Han people among Yehebu and his allies, so in order to avoid embarrassment, Luo Dian elaborated this plan in front of a group of Yehe nobles and allies.
“…… The land in eastern Liaodong is abundant, although the climate is relatively cold, but if you want to add spring, summer and autumn together, it is not impossible to grow grain. ”
“…… There are several high-yielding crops with short growth time in my Qixintang today, if the surrounding tribes are led by Ye Hebu to plant, with the total of my Qixintang account, it will be self-sufficient in three years at most! ”
“……”
It took Luo Dian half a day to dictate the plan that was full of space and extremely detailed, and the far-reaching beauty it showed was enough to make the nobles of the Sakchi and other tribes fascinated.
"Ugh!"
Sackchi had been instilled with too many things in his head, and he seemed a little dizzy for a while, but when it came to him, he also sensed that something was wrong from this plan.
"Shopkeeper Luo, it's not my villain's heart, but what I don't understand is that since you yourself are businessmen, you should naturally focus on profits, but in this plan, I really don't see anything that you can profit."
"Even if according to what you said, the land in Liaodong is suitable for growing grain, and after a bumper harvest in the future, it can not only support our tribes, but also provide a large amount of grain to sell to you, but at least it will be a few years or ten years later!"
"Hahaha, the patriarch is really careful!"
Luo Dian's heart sank, it seems that none of these masters who can be in high positions are worry-free.
"Of course we don't just have a little kindness, we also have our own calculations!"
"But since we want to cooperate with the patriarch, at least we must first show a sincerity that everyone can see, and at the same time, for our own sake."
"Only after the patriarch and your clansmen can eat and clothe themselves can you do a profitable business and improve your own life with peace of mind, right?"
"Next, what we want to talk about is the main topic of our mutual business!"
Immediately, Luo Dian sat down in danger and looked directly at the Sakchi patriarch with an attitude of discussing business.
"Patriarch, you actually know that the specialties that Liaodong can get your hands on now and are worth a few things: Dongzhu, deer antlers, old ginseng, etc."
"But these specialties have one of the biggest flaws, that is, the yield is scarce, and they are grown in uninhabited land, and it is difficult to pick, otherwise the local tribes will not be left with treasures but live a hard life, and even food and clothing cannot be solved."
"Therefore, in addition to providing my Han nationality with advanced grain seeds and cultivation technology, I will also provide a few excellent technologies that can turn the Yehe tribe into treasure, in exchange for all kinds of materials you need!"
“……”
Sackchi groaned, wondering in his heart what the trap behind Rodin's great offer was, but he couldn't think of the joints when he thought about it. After all, if the Hongmen people have the heart to deal with themselves and others, they don't have to go to such great lengths, with the layout strength of Hongtang's team in Liaodong, even the Great Qing Aixinjue Luo clan has already suffered a miserable defeat, not to mention the Yehe tribe that is slightly inferior to the Aixinjue Luo clan!
"And what are your interests?"
Sackchi couldn't figure it out, so he simply took the initiative to make his words clear, at least he wanted to see how they answered Luodian.
"Our interest lies in the fact that we provide such technology and patriarchs, and the products you produce in the future can only be sold to merchants such as us, and must not be sold to others!"
Luo Dian was confident, such a thing that benefited others and himself, he didn't believe that Sakchi, the current supreme leader of the Yehe tribe, would be able to refuse.
"I wonder if you can tell us what the technology is?"
Sakchi continued to ponder, and in his heart, heaven and man were at war, but he still couldn't refuse what Luo Dian said, and then continued to ask with a heartbeat.
"Yes!"
I thought that Luo Dian would easily refuse himself on the grounds of trade secrets, and use this as a bargaining chip to force Sacki to give in, but he didn't think that Sacky didn't report much hope for the inquiry, but he got a positive answer.
"First of all, the nitrification technology of modified versions of cowhide, sheepskin and other animal skins, as well as the supporting leather clothing, leather shoes, and belt production technology."
"Among the major tribes, there are no others, at most cattle, sheep and livestock, in the past, there were foreign merchants who came to buy animal skins, and the price would be very low, the reason is that you have not mastered the technology of deep processing of animal skins."
"And I, the owners of Qixintang and Nanyang Chamber of Commerce, are willing to cooperate with local tribes to provide and teach you the deep processing technology of animal hides, so that everyone can earn more benefits."
“……”
"There is also milk powder making technology, with this technology, the patriarch can make the local endless cow and goat milk into high-end luxury milk powder, which is not only convenient for preservation and transportation, but also not low in value."
"As for the sales of milk powder, the patriarch doesn't have to worry, I, Qixintang and Nanyang Chamber of Commerce, will work together to contract the sale of all milk powder products."
"Please believe us, in the next 20 years, the milk powder produced by all of us will not only sell well in the entire Central Plains of China, but also sell it to the territory of the East and Westerners to earn the money of those foreign devils."
“……”
"Then there is the technology of canning meat, with this technology, even in the hot summer, the cattle and sheep we slaughter can be stored for at least half a year, and they can be safely transported to those places where there is a lack of beef and mutton products and sell them at a high price."
"You know, in the Ming Dynasty, even if the general landlord's family, there are few people who can eat beef, and the cattle are an important production tool, and the Ming law makes extremely strict regulations, and it is strictly forbidden to slaughter the cattle!"
