Chapter 10: A Booming Business
Because James lowered the exchange price of gold and silver by 3 percentage points, so that the businessmen thought that James must have discovered a huge gold mine or the spokesperson of a superpower, and now some countries are using the gold standard, and some countries are using the silver standard financial policy, so a large number of gold and silver exchange people can still accept, and James proposes a limited number of exchanges every day, so all the merchants are proud of knowing James, and they are all scrambling to exchange gold with James, especially the Spaniards, Now they are preparing to withdraw from the Philippines, and they are desperate to exchange silver for gold, which is not only small in weight and light in weight, but can save a lot of shipping costs, and can make money simply by taking it out and trading, and the Europeans themselves prefer gold.

The Dutch here, also for this purpose, want to exchange silver for gold, so as to save too much freight, you must know that it is not close to return to the Netherlands from here, and then, British merchants and French merchants also came to James to exchange gold, because it is only considerable to save freight, and can also exchange more gold, which will go into their own pockets.
Japanese merchants also came, and Japan itself had plenty of silver, but gold was in short supply, so they still wanted to exchange silver for more gold.
James was in no hurry, but the amount of exchange was multiplied every day, which was exactly what the merchants wanted to see.
James said: "Young master, the speed of exchange is too slow, I think it is still fast to exchange money while collecting cash." “
"Fighting for the lack of more than enough, you can let customers who have a good relationship with you do this, and ordinary customers still limit the exchange volume every day, you know, we can't protect a large amount of wealth at present, we can only do small business, otherwise it is easy to be remembered, in the past few days, Long Yi They have secretly executed several spies." Zhang Wei said worriedly.
"Young master, why don't you synthesize a group of soldiers and put them in the system hall first, and if there is danger, you can release them at any time."
"I've synthesized almost 6 battalions of soldiers, and now I can fight at any time, but I don't want to develop that step, if I can make money with anger, I can make money with anger, and now the most important thing is for us to earn points."
"Alright then, let's exchange the Spaniards' gold first, the price they offer is 1:33, and if you can exchange a little more, it will be a little profit."
"Okay, you ask the Spaniards to bring the silver, I will first exchange his silver for points, and then exchange it for gold for him, it will only take a few minutes, but the other customers still exchange it slowly, let them beg us, so that your business can be done."
"Yes, young master," James said and went out.
Zhang Wei knew that these foreign devils hung their appetite before they were completely satisfied, and let them have certain interests, so that they would not be able to stop, otherwise, after fully achieving their goals, out of jealousy or wanting greater benefits, they would definitely continue to trouble James, and it was better to be a long stream.
Although Zhang Wei is not afraid of them, but he is not willing to trouble for the time being, since Zhang Wei came, he has fired all the outsiders in the house, and all the synthetics are used, and Zhang Wei can also check whether there are people around from the system map to enter or approach the house, but he can't keep an eye on the map all the time, so it's better to be careful.
James made an agreement with the Spaniards to transport the silver to James' estate that afternoon, and then after inspection, the equivalent of gold could be obtained, and of course, the transaction was carried out in secret. Zhang Wei also released 1 battalion of soldiers in advance and hid in the manor, ready to fight at any time.
James said to Andres: "This time you have asked for too much time, I have to risk inviting you here to trade, and your amount is too large, I feel very dangerous, there seem to be many eyes around me watching me, may God bless me." ”
"Mr. James, we're really sorry to have caused you trouble, next time we will definitely contact you in advance."
"I'm grateful that you can understand my difficulties. Now let's send the goods to the warehouse for quality and quantity leveling. “
"Yes, sir, please first."
The silver was 10 tons in total and was transported in more than 10 wagons. James asked to identify the quality, weigh and check the quantity, record and move the silver to the warehouse, of course, it was the porters dressed as soldiers, and after the silver was moved into the warehouse, Zhang Wei immediately exchanged it for points, and then bought all the gold and put it in the warehouse. When all the silver on the 10 carriages was put into storage, Zhang Wei's work was completed, but the value increased by more than 2 times.
After the weight and quality appraisal of this batch of silver fully met the agreed requirements, and after calculating the quantity of gold, the porter began to move the gold just purchased outside according to the specified quantity to identify the quality, weigh and record; Then it was moved to Andres's carriage.
The whole transaction process lasted more than 2 hours, and the result was a happy one, and Andres asked to increase the number of transactions in the future.
James said: "Mr. Andres, it's not that I don't want to expand the trade with you, it's just that I have a limited amount of gold in stock, if you want to expand the quantity, you must notify me in advance, so that the headquarters can prepare, I said, your amount is relatively large, I feel that danger is approaching me." ”
"Mr. James, I'm sorry for your trouble, but I'll definitely let you know in advance next time."
"Okay, happy cooperation!"
"Happy working together!" Andres' carriage drove out of the estate.
"Young master, we must have made a lot of money this time."
"Such a large-scale exchange is profitable, but it also exposes our warehouse, and it will be indispensable trouble in the future."
"No, young master, at least they won't leak us until the Spaniards have all redeemed it."
"I hope so."
"Then young master, how will we exchange the small amount in the future?"
"It's still the old rule to exchange 1,000 kilograms of gold in the morning and 1,000 kilograms in the afternoon, but it must be agreed in advance that each customer can exchange a maximum of 100 kilograms of gold per day."
"Yes, young master, I'm also afraid that if I continue to exchange like this, I will be targeted sooner or later."
"So, wherever you go, you have to take Ryuuji and Team 1 with you."
"Yes, Young Master Xie cares"
Now the strength is not strong, and I dare not exchange in large quantities, if I defeat Britain, France and the Netherlands in the future, I can exchange it unscrupulously. However, the current exchange speed has made Zhang Wei gain a lot, which is faster than robbing money, and it is a legal money grab, and the system is really not thin on itself.
For the safety of their own lives, the strength of the 1 battalion released did not take back the system, let them be stationed in the manor, and they gradually synthesized 5 battalions in the system, I believe that they can cope with general emergencies, but they are not equipped with artillery for the time being, if there is really a large-scale war, then they have to buy artillery at any time to participate in the battle.
