After Yan Hua retreated, Yang Mu looked at the stack of silver tickets in front of him, and tapped his fingers lightly on the table.

Everything is on the right track!

Yang Mu breathed a long sigh of relief.

In fact, he didn't know anything about the school at all, and Yan Hua didn't give him any hints on the details of the reception of those merchants.

All things are played by Yan Hua temporarily.

It's just that Yan Hua was afraid that revealing the stuffing would make him the emperor not have a good face, so he came over in advance to report it.

With a mouth, 300,000 taels of silver flickered, Yang Mu was very satisfied.

That's how the Ministry of Foreign Affairs should be!

Speaking of which, Yan Hua was able to become the secretary of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, but in order to disperse the power of the gate valve, he deliberately promoted a person from a small family to replace him temporarily, and after the imperial examination, he would find a suitable one.

Now it seems that even a blind cat touching a dead mouse, from this time alone, it can be seen that this person has the ability to be the secretary of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, and if he accumulates experience in the future, he will definitely become a diplomat.

A few moments later, a group of merchants entered the temple.

Obviously, after eating a closed door, these merchants are much more honest, and after entering the hall, they don't look around, they follow the little eunuch who leads the way with their heads down, and then bow down respectfully.

"Knock on His Majesty the Emperor of Cangguo, long live long live long live, long live, long live—"

"Wait, are you the merchants of various countries?" Yang Mu sat on the dragon chair and said majestically.

"Back to Your Majesty, foreign businessmen and others are exactly, and it is an honor to have this opportunity to meet Your Majesty."

Yang Mu pondered for a moment and asked, "What is the matter with you waiting to see you?" ”

Everyone hesitated, didn't dare to speak alone, hesitated for a moment, saw Yang Mu frowned, and finally someone said: "Report to Your Majesty, we have come to meet you, and I implore Your Majesty to sell the "Fable Story" to our caravans and sell it in various countries. ”

"Isn't my caravan in Cangguo already sold in Dasheng Country, and you can buy it directly."

"Your Majesty." An old man stood up and said: "The grass people think that this book is a book to educate the world, to benefit all living beings, and it should be greatly promoted, and it is inevitable that it will be sold in one place in Dasheng Country." I waited for the caravan to come in order to beg His Majesty to buy a batch of books directly and ship them to various countries for sale. ”

Yang Mu hesitated for a moment and asked, "What sincerity do you have?" ”

The old man was stunned for a moment, and said softly: "Your Majesty Mingjian, the grass people and others came with goodwill, and I heard that your country is building a new school, so I specially raised 700,000 taels of silver to share your Majesty's worries and ......."

"I know." Yang Mu waved his hand and said, "I'm asking you, what price are you willing to pay?" ”

Hearing this, all the merchants were overjoyed, and the apprehension in their hearts disappeared, and since they began to inquire about the price, the business became half.

"Our nine caravans are willing to purchase 900,000 volumes, and the price can be purchased at the price of one or two silver volumes." The old man said.

Suddenly, several merchants around frowned, their eyes slightly reproachful, although this price is profitable, but no businessman is willing to make a profit on the price.

"A tael of silver?" Yang Mu smiled and said, "You also said that this kind of book is a thing that blesses all sentient beings, is it so cheap for sentient beings?" ”

"......" Everyone was speechless, and after a while, the old man bowed his head and said: "Your Majesty, our merchants are also small businesses, and they have already earned very little by buying them at the same price as merchants in your country, so please be considerate of Your Majesty." ”

Yang Mu said: "Our own businessmen, naturally one or two silver, we are neighbors with Dasheng Country, and it is normal to sell cheaper, since everyone is sincere, I will be more lenient, but ......"

"Your Majesty, please!" Everyone was in a hurry and hurriedly said.

"So much silver, it's useless in my Great Cangguo, why don't we change the way of trading, part of it is delivered in silver, and part of it is paid in goods, how about it?"

Goods?

In an instant, all the merchants understood that the so-called goods allowance was nothing more than payment according to a part of silver and a part of the goods, which was a common transaction method between the governments of various countries.

After all, Cangguo is a small country, a barbarian land, even if you earn money, there is no place to spend it, and you need to purchase the required items from other countries, so it is not surprising to settle the payment in this way.

It's just that how to offset the payment with goods?

You must know that the business done by merchants from various countries is in all aspects, and if it is said that the payment for goods is offset according to the market price, then it is still beneficial to them, which is equivalent to doing business and making it profitable.

However, if the transaction is made at cost price, it will not only cost them manpower and material resources to transport, but also make no money, and the cost of increasing invisibly is extremely uneconomical.

"Dare to ask Your Majesty, how should the goods be paid?"

"According to eighty percent of the sales price of each country, the two sides negotiate and make a list."

"How much money and goods?"

"Thirty percent of silver, seventy percent of goods."

"......" Everyone was silent, and their hearts began to calculate.

General goods, such as salt and iron, etc., the profit is about four or five percent, according to the eighty percent price offset to Cangguo, in addition to the excess transportation costs, that is to say, there is about two percent of the profit, so that the actual price of a book is less than one or two silver.

"Your Majesty, we and the caravan can agree to this price, but there is a reluctant request, and I hope that Your Majesty will not sell this book to other caravans for the sake of our sincerity."

"You want dictatorship?" Yang Mu used the terminology of this era, pondered for a while, and said: "The Ministry of Foreign Affairs has played this matter with me, but everyone thinks that such a book with unprecedented craftsmanship and content will only be tempting to you?" Next, there will be countless caravans coming to Cangguo to contact, how can I refuse? Unless ......"

"Please also make it clear to Your Majesty!" Everyone hurriedly shouted, and when they heard the first half, their hearts sank to the bottom, and they were all very excited when they suddenly heard the turnaround.

"If a few of your caravans can set up shops in our Great Cangguo and can guarantee that no less than 100,000 taels of goods will be transported every month for sale, I will grant you priority, and in the future, all goods from Cangguo will be allowed to be sold."

Priority?

It's a new word to everyone, but you can hear what it means literally.

Priority is not the same as exclusivity.

As for the other goods of Cangguo...... Forget it, everyone is only interested in those beautiful "Fables".

If it is said that for the sake of a profit of hundreds of thousands of taels of silver, it is not a wise choice to transport goods of 100,000 taels of silver every month to such a poor and remote place to sell and fall into a quagmire.

Several of these businessmen have already begun to retreat.

Of course, Yang Mu knows the thoughts of these people, for these businessmen, opening a store in Cangguo is the same as Wal-Mart and Wanda Plaza in the later generations of entering a small county town, and it is not a cost-effective deal.

"Everyone, don't be impatient, listen to what I have said, the first volume of "Fables" is sold out, and there is still a second volume, and you will also enjoy the same treatment."

What the!

Volume II?

Everyone was shocked that there was a second volume of this book!

Thinking about it, it seems to be reasonable, since you can create "Fables", you can naturally create the second volume of "Fables", which is not contradictory!

Perhaps, there will be a third volume, a fourth volume, or something else......

If you can get your hands on it first......

Everyone's hearts were pounding, and when they thought about the conditions of Emperor Cangguo, they seemed to become insignificant.
