Several Datang businessmen were discussing what they had seen about this business negotiation, and when they saw Peng Cheng coming, they immediately greeted with a smile: "Old Peng, when will you, the director of the Department of External Economic and Trade Affairs, be free?" How about we come out and sit together? ”

"Hey, I want to too, but for a while, foreign trade and economic cooperation have just been established, and it is a time of many events, when will things be straightened out, how about a certain east?" Peng Cheng snorted, led Hadlink to his side, and then said in a very familiar tone: "But don't say that you don't take care of you, this one next to me is Mr. Hadlink of Byzantium, and it depends on you whether your products can enter Byzantium in the future." ”

Fanzi and Datang don't use the title of adult much because of their different habits, so Peng Cheng has always called Hadlink as Mr., and Hadlink is not opposed to such a title.

"Hahaha...... Lao Peng knows that you are the best friend!" The silk merchant Zheng Keming showed a hint of understanding, laughed and arched his hand to Peng Cheng, and then arched his hand to Hadlink: "Mr. Hadlink, you are polite!" ”

Hadlink learned from the others, arched his hand at Zheng Keming and the others, and said word by word in the stiff Tang Dynasty official language: "Hello! ”

Zheng Keming and the others obviously didn't expect this foreign old man to be like this, and they were stunned for a moment in surprise, and then raised their thumbs at the same time: "Mr. Hadlink, amazing!" ”

"Hahaha......" Hadelink smiled proudly as if he had completed a very great achievement, and said at the end: "Datang's official language is really too difficult to learn, see laugh, see laugh!" ”

"Mr. Hadlink, come, let me introduce you, this is Zheng Keming, one of the top silk merchants in the Tang Dynasty; This is the glass merchant Qian Fu; This is ......"

Peng Cheng was originally a businessman in Chang'an, although he was not the top, and he was not in the same circle as Zheng Keming and others, but some simple information could not help him, and after a while, he introduced all the people in front of him.

As soon as Hadlink only heard the goods handled by a few people, a bright smile immediately bloomed on his face, and he once again dragged a half-baked Tang official sentence: "Fortunately, fortunately!" ”

It seems that this old man should have put a lot of effort into today, Peng Cheng and Zheng Keming glanced at each other, and they already had a trace of understanding in their hearts, and they were also full of hope for this business negotiation tonight.

You must know that if this old man doesn't want to do business with the Tang Dynasty, or if the idea of doing business is not very strong, he doesn't need to learn the official dialect of the Tang Dynasty at all, and with his status as a Byzantine nobleman, he really doesn't need to get so close to the merchants of the Tang Dynasty.

Although there are differences in some concepts between the Tang Dynasty and foreign races, there are still many commonalities in the difference in the status of officials and businessmen, in terms of social status, although the nobles of different races value money, they also do not need to please a group of businessmen in this way.

So after a short look at each other, Zheng Keming was the first to speak: "Is Mr. Hadlink also interested in the silk of the Tang Dynasty?" ”

"Yes, I'm interested, but I don't know what the price of Mr. Zheng's silk is?" Hadlink didn't go around in circles, and as soon as Zheng Keming asked, he immediately asked back.

"According to Datang's standards, the price of each horse is about fifteen," Zheng Keming replied without thinking.

This price was negotiated in advance, and it was already five times the price of silk in Datang, but it was still much cheaper than the price of domestic silk products in Byzantium.

Peng Cheng stood aside and saw that they had already started to talk about business, and knew that it would be embarrassing for him to stay here any longer, so he smiled at Hadlink and said, "Mr. Hadlink, you talk first, and the official will lose money." ”

Hadlink is not a fool, of course he knows what Peng Cheng means, but he has no reason to keep Peng Cheng now, so he can only nod and say: "Although Lord Peng is convenient, I still have to have a good chat with a few gentlemen." ”

"Loss!" Peng Cheng smiled slightly, and nodded at Zheng Keming and the others.

"My lord, please!" Zheng Keming and the others also did not keep Peng Cheng, and arched their hands to see him leave.

As soon as Peng Cheng left, Hadlink also returned to his normal expression, looked at Zheng Keming and said: "Mr. Zheng, I want to know why the price of the silk sold to us is so high, as far as I know, the price of a silk horse in Datang should be about two to three times." ”

"No, no, this price is actually not expensive, you know, the silk sold in Datang is actually subsidized by the government, but exported to foreign countries is not, this is a kind of resource outflow, the government will cancel some policy support because of the outflow of resources, and the subsidized part of the cost will also be canceled."

"Mr. Hadlink, we are merchants, not philanthropists, and we need to feed a large number of workers, and we will not sell our goods without a certain profit."

Zheng Keming and Hadlink stood opposite each other, talked eloquently, and poured out to him the words that everyone had gathered together to discuss some time ago.

Silk is woven from silk, silk is spit out by silkworms, silkworms are insects, are renewable, and the leaves eaten by silkworms are also renewable, where is the loss of resources? Hadlin Keming knew that what Zheng Keming said was not the same thing, but he had no way to refute it, Datang was a powerful country, and he had no way to threaten with force, so he could only let the guy surnamed Zheng talk nonsense there.

However, the glass merchant Qian Fu was more discerning, and seeing that Hadlink's face was a little ugly, he joined in with a haha: "Mr. Hadlink, Lao Zheng is a straight-talking person, don't be surprised." But in some respects, the price he said is not really expensive, you can think about it, as merchants of Datang, we actually enjoy preferential policies in many aspects, such as transportation, we can use the railway, which is much easier than you buy things in Chang'an and ship them back, right? Another example is security, if you buy something from us at this price, we can send it to the border safely and securely, and ensure that there will be no problems, and if you transport it independently, how can you ensure the safety? ”

Hadrink's brows furrowed, I have to say that Qian Fu's words really went to his heart, and the problems of transportation and safety were indeed what he was worried about, if he could really use the railway to transport these things to the border as Qian Fu said, this price was really not unacceptable.
