What a shrewd person Na Xiao is, before he puts the goods on the price of the Nasatsuma Clan, he must first figure out the market for this year. www.biquge.info Pen Fun Pavilion sent the port commissioner, and he took Li Tu to the port to inquire about the price of goods.

After a few walks around the port town, they found a road with a few decent shops around it. There are Japanese-style flags in front of the shops with Japanese written on them, which is probably the Japanese sign of the store. However, on the door of the store, there is a wooden Ming-style signboard. Look at those signboards, they are all wholesale companies.

It seems that they are all businesses run by the Ming people.

Xiao Xiangui chose a "bag of groceries" with the largest façade and walked in with everyone.

As soon as the people entered, the owner of the shop greeted them.

The boss was a middle-aged man, short and stocky, wearing a scarf and an agarwood-colored Ming-style gown. As soon as he saw the visitor, he said a welcome speech like a cannonball.

"Ouch, where did this auspicious wind blow the distinguished guest, I said that there was something good to come to the door today, sure enough, sure enough! In the next bag to remember the grocery store Bao Shinqing, when did you come to Kagoshima? Sit! Sit inside! Please take a seat! ”

"Ada, hurry up and serve the tea, use this year's new tea!"

The people walked to the shop and sat down in order. After sitting for a while, Xiao Er brought tea.

Seeing that the guest took a sip of tea, the bag of Xinqing asked with a smile,

"You're a maritime merchant, right? Where did it come from. ”

Xiao Xiangui looked around at the layout of the store, and replied with a smile: "In Xia, Xiao Xiangui is a merchant from Zhangzhou. I just arrived in port today, and I have brought in a boatload of raw silk, silk and cane sugar. ”

As soon as he heard that there was a shipload of goods, the bag of Xinqing's eyes lit up, and he said with a smile: "Raw silk!" Satin! Cane sugar! Haha, it's all good stuff. Mr. Xiao looks like an old Jianghu, and the price difference between these goods in Zhangzhou and Waguo is the largest, and the difference between sales is several times. Bao Xinqing, here first, congratulations to Mr. Xiao for making money every day! ”

Xiao Xiangui laughed, went straight to the point, turned his head and asked: "A batch of high-quality Zhangzhou white silk has been shipped down, and there are 5,000 catties of Zhangzhou yellow silk, I don't know how much it can be sold in your bank?" ”

The bag of Xinqing squinted, but he was not in a hurry to say the price, but said lightly: "Mr. has the goods, let Xinqing see the goods." ”

Xiao Xiangui raised his hand, took two bundles of raw silk from the head manager Xue Yiming, and handed them to Bao Xinqing: "There is a belt!" Mr. Clear. ”

The bag of Xinqing took the two bundles of raw silk, walked to the light of the shop, and examined it carefully, before turning back and sitting down.

"It's a good silk, but..."

Xiao Xiangui hurriedly asked, "But what?" ”

The Bao Xinqing raised his head and asked, "But there is something unknown below." When Mr. Xiao's ship docked, could the port pursue the city of the palace to greet him? ”

Xiao Xiangui nodded and replied honestly: "This is indeed the case." ”

Hearing this, Bao Xinqing leaned back, and said with a regretful face, "The water is used in a hurry when this silk is degummed, and it is a little frizzy." I'm afraid it's not worth the psychological price of Mr. ”

Xiao Xiangui paused for a moment, looked at his raw silk suspiciously, and then looked at Bao Xinqing. Halfway, Xiao Xiangui asked in a deep voice, "How much is the bid?" ”

Bao Xinqing touched his goatee with his hand, "This silk is only one hundred taels and one quintals in Zhangzhou, and when it is shipped to Japan, it will be doubled on the ground." Mr. has made a lot of profits, which is gratifying. ”

This bag of Xinqing did not answer the price, but first pondered how much silver Xiao Xiangui could make. He took out Xiao Xiangui's words and said them again, as if he was unwilling to let Xiao Xiangui earn so much silver.

When a word came out, Xiao Xiangui's face was no longer good-looking.

After being silent for a while, the bag of Xin Qingcai said: "One hundred and seventy taels of white silk and one hundred and fifty taels of yellow silk." ”

This Bao Xinqing is also an old fox, and after a few tests just now, he knew that Xiao Xiangui was not here to do business with him, but to inquire about the price. Sooner or later, this goods will have to be sold to the Satsuma Domain officials. Unhappy, he quoted a very low price.

In fact, if Bao Xinqing quotes a suitable price, this business will not be successful, and it may be traded next time. But this Bao Xinqing is a master who refuses to suffer, and he is unwilling to let Xiao Xiangui know the market in Kagoshima, so he insists on quoting a very low price.

Hearing this, Xiao Xiangui was a hundred unhappy, and immediately put away the raw silk and stood up.

"Say goodbye!"

The bag of Xinqing did not leave any guests, but followed Xiao Xiangui to the door.

Sending the guests to the door, Bao Xinqing suddenly said: "I have something to say below." ”

Xiao Xiangui turned his head and asked, "What's the matter?" ”

Bao Xinqing pointed to the surrounding shops and said, "If Mr. goes to another house to ask, it can only be this price!" ”

Xiao Xiangui was stunned when he heard this, looked at the surrounding shops, and did not speak.

After a long time, he reacted, snorted coldly, and Xiao Xiangui left this commercial street with everyone.

#####

After an afternoon of shopping in Hefangjin, the group did not ask about the market of goods, but bought a lot of wine and meat and returned to the ship.

In the evening, Xiao Xiangui sent down the wine and meat and opened the meat for the boatmen. He also left some of the best lamb and beef leg meat for barbecue, and called the chief manager, the general shopkeeper, the helmsman, and the finance deputy to the tail building to enjoy the food together.

It seems that he thinks very highly of Li Tu, and Xiao Xiangui called Li Tu, who was not qualified to sit with the head manager.

After twenty days of wandering on the sea, everyone was about to eat the birds with a supply of clear soup and little water. At this time, there was meat and wine, and everyone let go of their stomachs, and they were staggered for a while.

After traveling to this era, Li Tu ate a month's worth of rice and twenty days of supplies, and this was the first time that he could let go of eating meat, and he was also busy eating.

After three rounds of wine, Xiao Xiangui put down the cup and said:

"Now I'm going to leave Kagoshima and sail the boat to Hirado, I don't know if it's too late?"

When everyone heard this, they were stunned.

However, the head manager Xue Yiming always understood Xiao Xiangui's thoughts, and asked in a deep voice: "Is the owner of the Satsuma Domain afraid that the lord of the Satsuma Domain will buy and sell strongly, and give a low price?" ”

Xiao Xiangui nodded, and said, "I always feel that this is a little wrong with Jinfang. ”

Wang Jian took a sip of sake and asked, "What's wrong?" ”

Xiao Xiangui turned the wine glass, pondered the language, and then said:

"I've been in Hirado for two years, and I haven't seen an official come out to greet a businessman. When I arrived at the Satsuma Domain, I wondered about the warm welcome and always felt that something was wrong. ”

Wang Jian put down the wine glass, his face was a little red, and he said, "What's wrong?" ”

Xiao Xiangui took a breath and said, "Could it be that this Satsuma clan is ready to buy my goods at a very low price. This greets me, does it mean that I am determined, is it afraid that I will run away? ”

Wang Jian didn't ask again, just sat there straight and didn't speak.

The head manager, Xue Yiming, ate a piece of roast beef, and said: "When you went to inquire in the afternoon, you were pressed by those merchants, last year Baisi sold two hundred and forty taels in Pinghu, but now it is pressed to one hundred and seventy taels by the merchants." Owner, you are afraid that these merchants will collude with the lord of the Satsuma domain and press your price together. ”

"When the time comes, the inside and outside will collude to eat you, and it doesn't make sense for you to say anything."

"You want to run away now! Go to Hirado and sell the goods for a fair price! ”

Looking at Xue Yiming, Xiao Xiangui nodded and said, "That's the truth!" ”
