Chapter 1856: Really Expensive (Medium)
Lao Fanzi was a little hesitant about the price, just listening to silk, he could imagine that other things would not be cheap.
But fortunately, this thing is long, the boat is high, the purchase price is high, and the bid price is just as high, and you must not lose money after buying it in China.
At this moment, some other Byzantine merchants saw Hadlink chatting with several Tang merchants, and they also came over, intending to listen to what they were talking about and see if it was possible to join in.
With the arrival of those people, the atmosphere became lively again, with the help of a translator like a split personality, a group of people chatted very familiarly, and the customs and cultural landscapes of various places were easily brought by these businessmen who went south and north.
Seeing that these merchants were chatting happily, Hadlink casually greeted them and left, and went around to find traces of Pengcheng.
As a representative of the Byzantine mission, he was at best a needle-threading figure, and when the merchants became acquainted with each other, there was not much left of his role.
After going around and around the welcome building, Hadlink finally found Peng Cheng in a box on the second floor, and with him was the representative of the Great Food Country, Moyeku.
The names of these alien races are very strange one by one, except for the people of their own country who probably know what they mean, the Tang people generally listen to them according to the pronunciation of the characters.
"Mr. Hadrink, just now the official was talking to Mr. Moyeku about you, but I didn't expect you to come!" Peng Cheng saw that Hadlink was hesitating at the door, not knowing whether he should come in or not, and immediately greeted him warmly.
And that Mo Yeku took this opportunity to stand up and said in the half-baked official dialect of the Tang Dynasty: "Master Peng, since Mr. Hadlink is here, then I will say goodbye first, and you must not forget the things you just mentioned, farewell!" ”
"Uh......, okay!" Peng Cheng originally planned to introduce Hadlink and Moyeku, but before he could speak, one of them flashed, which made him feel so embarrassed.
Fortunately, Hadlink walked into the box at this time, and relieved him with a smile: "Master Peng, I have known Moyeku for a long time, and it was very embarrassing to meet two years ago because of a little misunderstanding, I understand your kindness, but ......"
"So that's the case, hey, it's all because the official didn't figure things out in advance, he should be punished, he should be punished!" Peng Cheng saw that Hadlink didn't seem to care much about Mo Yeku's indifference just now, so he snorted and gave him a seat.
"Master Peng, I just chatted with a few businessmen from your country, and found some small problems, I don't know whether to talk about it or not!" After Hadlink sat down, he pondered for a while, and suddenly looked up and asked.
Peng Cheng vaguely guessed what this old man wanted to say, but he couldn't take the initiative to bring up this kind of thing, so he said very hypocritically: "Mr. Hadlink just said that although this is the first time we have met, the two of us are familiar at first sight, and there is no need to be polite." ”
However, Peng Cheng still underestimated the straightforwardness of the old fanzi, and saw that this Hadlink just paused, and then said: "Lord Peng, I found that the prices of the things sold to us in your country are very expensive, I don't know if this is the official meaning of the Tang Dynasty?" Or is it the meaning of a folk businessman? ”
I have to say that Hadlink's question was really beyond Peng Cheng's expectations, he never thought that this old man would be so direct, and actually brought this kind of tacit thing to the table, if it wasn't for some preparation in advance, maybe he was really asked by this guy.
Thinking of this, Peng Cheng's face showed a wry smile, and after a long time, he said slowly: "Mr. Hadlink, there is a famous saying in Datang, which is called rare and expensive, don't look at the many things in Datang that are sold very cheaply, but you must know that Datang is actually very big, with Datang's current material output, it is evenly distributed to everyone's head, in fact, there is not much." When we sell things for export now, to put it bluntly, we are selling out the interests of the people and the resources on which future generations will depend for their survival. ”
"Think about it, what would you think if someone in your clan sells the items allocated to the clan at a normal price, but doesn't get a high return? There are not many materials in the clan, if you can't exchange the limited materials for greater value, do you think there is still a need to do business? ”
"It's the same with our Datang, we are now selling the things of future generations, but in order to prevent future generations from scolding us, we must take back some other benefits, only in this way can we leave a chance for future generations to survive, right?"
Holy! Hadlink really wanted to smash the wine glass in his hand into Peng Cheng's face.
I cried for a long time about poverty, and I talked about it for a long time, but in fact, it didn't mean the same thing, just to see how stupid the old men are!
But impulsiveness is the devil, you can't be impulsive, and if you are impulsive, you won't have a chance to talk about the next thing, Hadlink endured the grievances in his heart, nodded stiffly, and agreed with Peng Cheng's words.
But soon he asked again: "Lord Peng, I see that this welcome building in your country is brightly lit, but there is no candle flame, I don't know what the reason is?" ”
"You mean electric lights?" Peng Cheng looked up at the glass chandelier overhead and stretched out his finger.
"Electricity? Lamp? "Hadlink was a little incomprehensible, and with his experience and learning, there was no way to associate electricity and light with different things.
"Yes, this is the electric light, a tool that can be lit without fire." Peng Cheng nodded, looking at Hadlink's appearance, he couldn't help but think of what he looked like when he first saw the electric light, and he couldn't help but laugh secretly in his heart.
"So, is this one sold?" A hint of longing flashed in Hadrink's eyes.
"This ......" Peng Cheng wanted to say that he was selling, but considering the credit problem, he still shook his head: "Mr. Hadlink, I won't tell you, this lamp is actually useless even if you buy it back, it needs another set of large equipment to use with it, and another set of large equipment, I don't have the right to decide on this matter." ”
"Why? What kind of equipment is that? Hadlink asked, puzzled.
"Anyway, it's a big set of equipment, so big that you can't imagine, and the price of this set should be described as priceless, so I don't recommend you to buy this set." Peng Cheng said very seriously and responsibly.
However, he did not know, and the more he said this, the more curious Hadlink became, and the more curious he was, the more he wanted to buy it!
