In the crisp sound, the defenseless Su Xiaomei was taken aback, her hand shook, and the camera almost fell to the ground, but fortunately, Li Chuan's eyes were quick and he grabbed it, so he didn't fall down, otherwise most of the cameras he bought would have to be returned to the factory for repair.

"It's a weird sound."

Su Xiaomei patted her chest, looking like she had palpitations.

Li Chuan smiled wordlessly and bitterly, called up the photos she took, and said, "Come, look at the photos you took." ”

Su Xiaomei turned her head and glanced at it, her eyes were about to pop out: "I really took it, husband, this camera is too amazing, is it really so powerful that Western craftsmen can make such ingenious utensils." ”

"It's amazing!"

Li Chuan nodded: "Science can change everything in the world, but it is ridiculous but it is condemned by those gentlemen as a strange trick...... Forget it, you don't understand this. ”

Su Xiaomei felt that she was being white, so she glanced at Li Chuan again.

"Cameras consume electricity."

Li Chuan said: "A battery is estimated to shine a thousand times, that is, the clicking sound a thousand times, you save some use, and when the solar power generation system is assembled for the husband, you can charge it." ”

"What is electricity?"

Su Xiaomei was even more puzzled, and felt more and more that her husband was too knowledgeable, and compared to him, she was more and more ignorant, a little depressed, and she was really more popular than people.

However, how can my husband know so much, there seems to be no knowledge in many books!

"Electricity is an invisible new source of energy."

Li Chuan said: "When a part of the conductor of a closed circuit moves to cut magnetic inductance lines, an electric current will be generated, simply put, it can generate an electric current by using the magnetic field of the magnet. The current is invisible, but it has a wide range of uses, such as a camera, that is, when a battery is illuminated, the screen will glow, in order to store the image, all of which are the effect of electricity. ”

Su Xiaomei looked at him innocently, feeling like she was listening to a book from heaven.

Ping'er was also confused, but there were little stars in her eyes, feeling that the master was too powerful, and there was nothing that the master didn't understand.

Li Chuan patted his forehead and said, "Okay, I won't explain it to you, I'll count the goods for my husband." ”

"Husband has worked hard!"

Su Xiaomei diligently sent him away, and she couldn't wait to take the camera to study it, for her, the single-lens reflex camera is so amazing, you can get a portrait out without painting, it's too magical.

And the portraits made are so realistic that they seem to come to life, which is really subversive.

All the goods were moved into the warehouse, and Li Chuan counted them again and made a list.

This time there were a lot of goods, several times more than the last one, and even excluding the pork and flour that were going to be used to give benefits to the military households, the goods ready to be sold were at least three times as much as the last time, worth tens of millions of silver.

"My lord, there are too many goods this time, this silver ......"

Wan Youqing seven people looked embarrassed, although they were surprised after learning the approximate number of goods, but also worried about the seven people, not to mention the sought-after Western goods, but this time the number of goods is too much, their silver is not enough!

Even if they were divided among a hundred, they would get millions of taels.

Although Wan Youqing and the seven people made a lot of money from Western goods, after all, the foundation was too thin, and they could not compare to those real wealthy businessmen and powerful people with strong financial resources.

"You can owe the payment first!"

Li Chuan said: "But there is something to be left to you." ”

"Please show me."

The seven of them hurriedly straightened their chests, there was nothing they couldn't do except rebel.

Li Chuan said: "Integrate your caravan, form a caravan that is not inferior to the Jin merchants, and transport grass and baggage to Jinshanwei, no matter where the army under the command of this official appears, the grain and grass must be delivered in time, it may be done?" ”

"This ......"

The seven people looked at each other, all a little hesitant.

There is no problem in forming a caravan, and there is no problem in transporting grain and grass, but the last one is not easy to do, no matter where Jin Shanwei's army appears, grain and grass must be delivered in time, which is definitely not an easy thing.

In the Ming Dynasty, where logistics and transportation are extremely low, as long as manpower and animal power are needed to transport grain to the front line in time, the difficulty of this is unimaginable, and it is far from being able to do it with money and people.

"Why, can't it be done?"

Li Chuan's eyes were blazing, and he was somewhat dissatisfied.

"I am willing to die for my lordship!"

The seven exchanged glances, knowing that this was the only opportunity, since they couldn't get the silver, they had to pay, although it was difficult, but as long as they got the Western goods and earned a lot of silver, they could find a way, so they had to grit their teeth and respond.

"Good!"

Li Chuan clapped his hands and said, "As the saying goes, wealth and danger are sought, and the seven of them are all people who do great things, and this official believes that this matter will not be difficult for you." There are a lot of goods this time, and I will give you eighty percent, and I will be useful if I leave two percent. ”

Seven people have no opinion, I thought that the number of goods this time was about the same as last time, worth four or five million, but I didn't expect it to be several times more than last time, even if I didn't get all of them, eighty percent was more than all the goods in the previous batch.

Although too many quantities will inevitably affect the price, but there are so many rich people in the Ming Dynasty, as long as they can monopolize the sale of most goods, as long as they use a little means, the impact on profits is actually not great, and they still make a lot of money.

As long as this business is done, there will be no doubt that it will be squeezed into the top wealthy businessmen.

The seven of them were a little excited, and they couldn't wait to go back immediately and organize people to come and pick up the goods.

Li Chuan was also very satisfied, the biggest constraint on the army in this era has always been the logistics problem, and it is impossible for the army to go on the road with a large amount of grain and grass, so the grain and grass are mostly transported by the people recruited by the imperial court, which is extremely expensive.

Expecting the imperial court to send grain and grass to Jin Shanwei is a joke.

Li Chuan couldn't help but prepare early, in case Jin Shanwei really wanted to go on an expedition one day, he couldn't recruit people to send grain to the army, and he couldn't always conjure up grain and grass out of thin air, so he could only rely on the power of these merchants.

In fact, although businessmen are not profitable and do not get up early, as long as they are used well, they can have an effect beyond people's imagination.

In fact, to put it bluntly, the power that drives everything comes from interests.

In particular, these businessmen are driven by profits, and they are unfavorable.

As long as these businessmen are kidnapped with profits, they can exert unimaginable power.

It's a pity that the emperor in the deep palace doesn't understand this truth.

The courtiers may understand, but they will never tell the emperor.

When Wan Youqing and others were discussing with Li Changyue to pick up the goods, the officials of Jin Shanwei were anxious to wait, the news had already come out, and the five big ships were indeed Western goods, which made the officials feel at ease At the same time, they were impatient to know the exact news, and wanted to know how much good they could get, and whether the previous efforts were worth it.

Li Chuan didn't let these people wait long, and in the evening of the next day, the officials above the 1,000 households of Jinshanwei received a summons from the commander, and all of them were in high spirits, and they all went to the commander's mansion to discuss the plan of making a fortune.
