Chapter 303: Acquisition at a low price

At this time, Li Shan, who was the culprit, disappeared. Li Shan and Yang Miaoling had already left Harbour City and went to other places to play.

Anyway, he doesn't have anything to do now, and the goods sold can be handed over to Yan Zhao and Zhuo Cheng to complete. As for the acquisition, it takes enough time to ferment to achieve the desired effect, and during this time, Li Shan can go around with peace of mind.

With the No. 10 Dali Army and Ah San and Yun Fei, two top bodyguards, Li Shan was not worried about any danger in this foreign country at all.

India's population was much smaller than that of the Tang Dynasty, and it was not unified. Although ancient India was very famous in history, including the Persian Empire and the Roman Empire. But the density of the population is unimaginable compared to that of ancient China.

The battles in Western history were basically fought by hundreds of thousands of people, and tens of thousands of people fought were already epic battles, but the killing of 400,000 Zhao troops in Baiqikeng back then seemed like a fantasy in the West.

Although India is also in the east, but in fact they border Arab countries, the level of the two countries is basically the same, if there is no Qinghai-Tibet Plateau block, the Chinese are afraid to step on the entire Eurasian continent.

"Xianggong, where are you going?" Yang Miaoling didn't know what Li Shan's plans were, in fact, Li Shan himself didn't know what he was looking for, but Li Shan knew that as long as he was looking, he would definitely be able to find what he needed.

"I'm looking for treasure." Li Shan said with a smile.

Yang Miaoling pouted and said, "Can the treasure be placed on the ground?" Running aimlessly like you, where are you looking for treasure? If it's really a treasure, will it be waiting for you to get it? It has long been taken away by others. ”

Li Shan smiled: "Hehe, there are some treasures that others can't see and can't take away, so they can only wait for me to pick them up." ”

Yang Miaoling didn't know what Li Shan was talking about, but looking at his determined appearance, it didn't seem like a joke.

Sure enough, after running for a while, Li Shan saw a village in front of him, Li Shan excitedly beat his horse and galloped over, ran to the farmland next to the village, and looked for it.

Sword beans, which were not seen in the Tang Dynasty, were introduced to China during the Song Dynasty. Li Shan was so excited, he didn't know how many species had been brought to China from India, but he knew that there must be, and all he had to do was collect the seeds of these crops and bring them back.

Yang Miaoling looked at Li Shan with an excited look on his face and said, "Xianggong, this can't be the treasure you said, right?" ”

Li Shan nodded, handed a handful of sword beans to Yang Miaoling and said, "Yes, look, this is the treasure I am talking about." Of course, this is not quite, there are others. ”

Yang Miaoling said: "What's the use of this thing? Who will buy this? Could it be that you can still grow golden beans? ”

Li Shandao: "Think about it, if this sword bean is planted in Yunnan, will we have our own beans to eat?" There are many more, I have to collect all the seeds one by one, and bring them all back to Yunnan. ”

Yang Miaoling understood what Li Shan meant, but she didn't think much of Li Shan's approach, in her opinion, isn't everything she eats the same? Do you have to grow these beans to eat? Yang Miaoling took the sword bean in front of her eyes and looked at it carefully, but she didn't see anything delicious about this thing. However, what Li Shan wants to do, Yang Miaoling will naturally not object. Anyway, it doesn't cost a lot of money to buy these things.

In this way, Li Shan took Yang Miaoling outside for half a month, collected a lot of vegetable seeds and brought them back.

At this time, the merchants in the harbor city have already fried the pot, and they are looking for the local tyrant ship dealer. But what is puzzling is that the local tyrant shipper, who had been clamoring to buy the goods, seems to have suddenly disappeared.

With the end of the deal, many Arabian treasure ships and Chinese ships left Harbour City for the Persian Gulf region one after another, and fewer and fewer ships stayed in the port.

At this time, the smart merchant already knew that he had been fooled, and began to deal with his goods quietly. But the market pattern of oversupply has been formed, and in any case, this market cannot absorb the existing goods, and even if these merchants do not buy them with all their might, they have reservations. But if everyone buys a little more, the price is destined to be lower.

Li Shan returned to the boat and carried all the seeds upstairs to the boat and put them away.

Zhang Yanzhao said: "Brother Shan, this merchant can't bear it anymore, although he has been pretending to be calm a few days ago, and he looks like a strange commodity to live in. But in the past few days, as other merchant ships have left, these people can't sit still, and in the past two days, several large merchants have come to me to negotiate the price, and the price has been lowered by a percent. ”

Li Shan smiled slightly: "Okay, it's actually mature." How much of our goods have come out? ”

Zhang Yanzhao said: "The three ships have been empty, and the goods are basically forty percent, and now the price has dropped again." I followed your instructions and watched the price every day, and stopped selling as soon as the price fell, but now the price has been falling, so I don't sell. ”

Li Shandao: "That's right, well done." Forty percent of the goods, then we can close the net now, you sort out the goods we need to purchase, and make a list for me. In addition, you go to the Indian merchant and talk to them to reduce the current price by another 40%. ”

Zhang Yanzhao's eyes widened, and he stretched out four fingers and said, "Forty percent? Big brother, this is too ruthless, it's basically unprofitable. Can they sell? ”

Li Shan said with a smile: "There will always be someone to sell, now they are pressing too many goods, the monsoon has passed, there will be no more merchant ships of the Tang Dynasty, we are their last hope." So we can sit on the ground and raise the price, and if we don't collect it, their goods will rot in the warehouse, so they have to sell. You can rest assured to talk, talk about each family, and which one has a low income. ”

Zhang Yanzhao said with a smile: "Big brother, you are really born to do business, and it is a pleasure to follow you together." ”

Li Shan said: "Okay, you go quickly." Push the price to the lowest, but don't rush to make a move, I guess they haven't reached the psychological limit yet, you go to test their bottom line first, and I'll give them a hard move tomorrow. ”

Sure enough, Zhang Yanzhao didn't look happy when he came back, and said, "Brother Shan, your price is indeed too low, and only a few are willing to accept it." ”

Li Shan said: "Okay, that's fine, we'll pull out the anchor and set sail tomorrow." ”

Zhang Yanzhao said: "What? Pull anchor and set sail? Don't we buy goods, so that we ourselves will lose? ”

Li Shan laughed and said: "The reason why they haven't made up their minds to sell the goods is because they see that we still have ten ships here that haven't left, so I'll leave with seven ships first, leaving you with three empty ships, and you are responsible for filling them." ”

Zhang Yanzhao clapped his hands and smiled: "I see, don't worry, big brother, leave it to me." (To be continued.) )
