Chapter 1808: Use your brains

50,000,000 guan, that is, 500 million guan, this is a very large number, if converted into modern currency of the same value, even if it is exchanged for American knives, it will take about 800 billion.

But you can't compare anything vertically, in the era of Datang, you have to measure something according to Datang's standards.

For example, 50,000 yuan, this number may seem huge when we look at it now, but from the standpoint of the country, it is actually not much.

At this time, the Tang Dynasty had annexed the entire east and west, whether it was a peninsula or something else, and the northern border was close to the northern circle; The south extends to Australia; As for the west, the Indian Ocean has become the territorial waters of the Tang Dynasty; And to the east, well, the Wa Kingdom is still at war, but at least half of it is also controlled by the Tang Dynasty.

With such a huge territory, what is 50,000 yuan?

Not to mention that Datang does not only sell grain, silk has been sold in Datang for nearly the same amount of money, and the export price has tripled, that is, three times a horse; Porcelain, there is no standard for this thing at all, just like the rice bowls of later generations, a set of fifty is also available, and a set of five hundred is also available, so it is not expensive to sell a bottle for five times, right?

But the people who came were all nobles from Fanbang, so are you embarrassed to buy only one silk? Just buy a bottle, a bowl? What about the face?

Oh yes, Datang also has a lot of glass products, such as small mirrors, such as exquisite lighting, this thing is also unique to Datang, a small mirror is not expensive to sell for 200 Wen, right? Lighting is not expensive to sell, right?

Do you want to buy some when you come to Datang? Small mirror, are you embarrassed to buy only the size of a palm? Why don't you buy a few people to be high? Such a big mirror, a few flips, it's not a hundred, right?

It's the same with lighting, you can't just buy one, right? Those fanbangs like to live in castles, why do you have to change the lights of the entire castle when you buy lights, right?

What do you really just buy a small mirror the size of a palm? Also buy only one lamp? Cheng, we also sell, but what about the face?

Also, the bulldozer and tractor, the nobles of Fanbang also have land at home, right? When you get to Datang, don't you want to buy one and go back? That's too much to look down on, isn't it? And these things come in pairs, and you can't just buy one if you want to buy them.

Okay, you buy one as well, so much iron adds up to a lot of money, right? Datang can restrict the export of steel, and you are embarrassed if you want to ship it out without adding some money? Charge twice the export fee, 500,000 yuan a piece, not expensive, right?

What the? You say it's too expensive not to buy? Okay, let's find a similar one, give him a set for free, and give him some money.

Someone has bought it now, right? So do you buy or not sell? Those states are all hostile to each other, do you buy them if the enemy buys them? What about the face?

There are also perfumes, photo cars, bicycles, the first four and eight luxury carriages, etc., etc., these are not available in the foreign Fanbang, you can't buy it when you come to Datang! Do you want to take some back and give them away?

Don't buy? Don't bring? What about the face?

In the end, the things are bought, the competition is over, and you want to go back? You can't carry it back by yourself after buying so many things, right? Datang is not a certain treasure, a certain east, in this era of tight materials, it is a seller's market, free shipping is such a thing that Datang will not do, so ...... You have to pay for the freight, right? Don't give? It's okay, don't take the things, stay in Datang.

We Datang are not stingy, and admit that the things are yours, and no one will touch your things, but you have to pay the storage fee.

Oh yes, you have to eat when you're a foreigner, right? There are so many places in Datang, so many scenic spots, you have to go and see them when you come, right? You have to buy some souvenirs, right? That's a lot of money, isn't it?

……

Speaking of this, Li Chengqian suddenly felt that the standard of 50,000 guan seemed to be a little low, and looked at the group of old scumbags who were stunned and almost stared out of their eyes and asked with some uncertainty: "You say, do we want to raise the standard a little more?" 50,000 seems to be a little less. ”

No one spoke, and everyone was immersed in what Li Chengqian had just said.

If it is really as he just said, let alone 50,000 yuan, even 500,000 yuan will not be a problem.

But, but is this still His Majesty the Emperor? Looking at Li Chengqian squatting on the dragon chair, talking while digging his nose, no matter how you look at it, he is a profiteer who buys and sells.

Finally, after a long silence, the old guy Chu Suiliang walked out: "Your Majesty, Your Majesty, the minister, the minister has a sentence that I don't know whether to say or not!" ”

"Talk, what can't be said, this is the early dynasty, where everyone discusses, if you have anything to say, say!" Li Chengqian was still imagining just now, and he was a little high.

Lao Yu raised his eyes and looked at Li Chengqian, who was a little carried away, and hesitated for a long time before saying: "Your Majesty, you, you are an egg belongings, this, these things are all thought up by you alone, this ......."

"How is it possible, it's man-made!" Li Chengqian jumped down from the dragon chair, circled around the table twice, then poked his head with his hand and said, "You have to move your brains and think about it!" ”

After that, his eyes swept and he saw Cheng Biting Jin who was squatting on the side, coughed and said, "Let's take my father-in-law as an analogy......."

"Uh, what's wrong?" Lao Cheng was still in a daze, and was suddenly called a little stunned.

"Father-in-law, if, I mean if, if you look at him......" Li Chengqian said, stretched out his finger and pointed at Chu Suiliang: "He replaced all the lights in the house with electric lights, what would you do?" ”

"What else, the old man smashed it all for him!" Cheng Yanjin didn't think about it, and said with a grin.

For a while, the hall was terrifyingly quiet, and everyone was peeking at Li Chengqian, looking like they wanted to laugh but didn't dare to laugh.

Li Chengqian also felt very embarrassed, he suddenly realized that he shouldn't have asked Cheng Yanjin, the devil, this brain circuit is different from others, and it is not strange to have such an answer.

And another more embarrassing thing is Chu Suiliang, this old man glared at Cheng Biting Jin angrily, and said in his heart, how can I offend you, mother, mother, Lao Tzu bought a few electric lights, and your old man was going to smash the old man! !

After a long time, Fang Xuanling seemed to figure out what Li Chengqian meant, and walked out of the court: "Your Majesty means to sow discord?" Let those countries that are hostile to each other look at each other unpleasantly? ”

"Yes, that's what it means, if no one buys something, we can give it away for nothing, for example, give two tractors to the Japanese country, and then say that the Japanese people bought it themselves, you say, what will other countries think, will those nobles also buy a few, after all, face is still very important to them."
