Chapter 364: A Kind Woman
Since Fei Xin said that he was in urgent need of iron ore now, Tang Ming had nothing to hesitate about, and followed him to the dock to meet the so-called messenger. When the pen and fun pavilion were on the www.biquge.info road, Tang Ming had already learned from Fei Xin's mouth that these people had been pulling iron ore to sell to Daming, and they could be regarded as having official status.
But as long as the island people run on the sea, he is a pirate here in Daming, and he is still the most difficult pirate. No matter what their status or status, it is useless to say anything when they knock their hats. Fei Xin didn't think so, he was very optimistic about the people who came to trade this time, and he seemed to know something, but he always refused to tell Tang Ming, saying that he would know when he saw someone!
If you don't say it, you will pull it down, Tang Ming didn't pester Fei Xin, the dock built with a pure cement structure made those who came very curious. They didn't even let go of the cement floor on the ground, squatting there to study and almost stick out their tongues to lick it, Tang Ming watched them study for a long time, but there was only confusion on their faces.
I couldn't help sneering in my heart: "Lao Tzu's cement, if you devils can study it now, what is this?" Then he can just take a piece of tofu and hit it headlong and kill it. ”
When Fei Xin opened the door of the dock inn, Tang Ming stepped in, and as soon as he raised his head, he saw a woman with heavy makeup facing him. The thick layer of foundation on his face made Tang Ming feel unappetizing, and the makeup was too thick to see his appearance, but the figure wrapped in a wide robe could still be vaguely seen. Of course, this is Tang Ming's experience when he studied ancient women wearing robes.
Tang Ming was in a hurry, and he was only wearing regular clothes at this time, and the woman from the island country didn't know that the protagonist was coming, but stared at Tang Ming back and forth with interest. Tang Ming, who was originally a coward, was a little embarrassed by it, and asked a strange woman who suddenly looked at herself with a strange gaze, and she was calm, or how to say that women in island countries are more open, Tang Ming would be deeply understood.
After Fei Xin closed the door again, he walked up from behind Tang Ming, and said to the woman with heavy makeup with a smile: "Miss Watanabe has been waiting for a long time!" ”
The woman retracted her gaze that was patrolling back and forth on Tang Ming, nodded and replied in a skillful Da Ming dialect: "General Fei is polite, it's already a disturbance to come without telling you, and you should wait!" ”
Fei Xin smiled apologetically, and then pointed at Tang Ming and said to her, "Miss Watanabe, this is Weihaihou." After finishing speaking, he pointed to the Watanabe lady and said to Tang Ming: "Master Hou, this is the Watanabe Village Miss who led the team this time, the Watanabe family has strong strength in the island country, and the most prosperous port in the Watanabe harbor island country is owned by their family. ”
Tang Ming, the samurai family of the island country, still knows a little bit, women usually look very delicate in the island country, but in fact, they are also important members of the family. is not as patriarchal as the Ming Dynasty, and the women of the island country are also fond of dancing swords and sticks under the pressure of the times. Just like the Watanabe village in front of her, she looks harmless at this time, in fact, once she picks up the katana, she will immediately become a crazy lioness, there is no doubt about this.
The population of the island country has always been small, and every child of the samurai family, male or female, is trained harshly from an early age. This is also their way of survival, and there are often fights between families, and only when every member of the family can take up arms and fight, can the family keep the peace.
Although Watanabe Village is a daughter, Tang Ming doesn't treat her as a woman, the expression on his face is tight, and he said coldly: "I heard that Miss Watanabe Village brought a lot of iron ore to trade with me, I don't know how much?" What do you want to exchange? ”
Tang Ming's first impression of Watanabe Village was that of a sunny boy, and when he heard Fei Xin say that he was Weihaihou, that is, the object of her negotiation this time, he couldn't help but be stunned for a moment. Hearing Tang Ming's cold and hard words, she also put away her contempt, and officially said: "Watanabe Village, the eldest daughter of the Watanabe family, has seen Master Hou, and it is not surprising that she will be uncomfortable if she comes to disturb her this time." As for why he found Hou Ye, he must have known what he meant, so the village didn't say much. There were a total of 40 sea ships the size of the Ming warship, 100,000 catties of iron ore, and the objects exchanged...... If you can, the village wants to exchange the materials you used to build the dock and this house with Hou Ye, I wonder if you can? ”
"Exchange cement!" Tang Ming secretly rejoiced in his heart, he had already planned it just now, and if he exchanged money, he would definitely not have it now. The only money left was used to buy some much-needed goods from Luzon, and he was going to go there to exchange for silver for white flowers, and if he wanted to exchange for things, he would have it, and he could give her the goods that were going to be pulled to Luzon first.
I just don't know what she wants, so I asked just now, but I didn't expect this Watanabe village to want cement. Tang Ming is now so poor that he only has cement left, and now he is constantly producing it day and night. I heard that nearly ten large warehouses are about to be full, and I am worried that I have to pay a lot of effort to pull this thing to Daming to sell. Now it can be regarded as finding the wronged leader, the cement thing is only here for him, not for Nanjing.
It can be said that people who understand cement are priceless, and those who don't understand it will dislike it as dust that pollutes the environment. Obviously, this Watanabe village saw the magic of cement, so he wanted to exchange it with him. Tang Ming felt that his opportunity to make a fortune had come, and he felt embarrassed if he didn't slaughter this woman ruthlessly.
Tang Ming, whose mind was full of dirty thoughts, smiled and said, "It's possible that Watanabe Village doesn't know the value of my thing, but it's not cheaper than your iron ore at all." This thing we call cement, and it also requires a series of processes of mining, grinding and firing to get it. The finished cement only needs to be mixed with a certain proportion of sand or gravel to dry naturally, and I believe that Watanabe Village should also know about its effect, so I won't say much! ”
The more Watanabe Village listened, the more her brows furrowed, and she didn't think about how cheap cement was at first, but the bottom line should be not much different from iron ore. But listening to what Tang Ming said just now, her iron ore seems to be less than one-tenth of other people's cement, and the drop is so big that Watanabe Village hesitated for a while.
She had thoroughly understood the hardness of cement since she landed, and it was no different from stone. There were also laborers working outside the docks, and his men had already seen it in person, and the whole process was very simple, and it was the best choice for building the city wall.
