248. The Great Food Merchant (Third Shift)

Bianjing is a master of Beijing, a porter who bears the burden, and there have been incidents of scolding the prime minister on the street, so he immediately gossiped and everyone started talking.

Some say that the big cannibal makes a big fuss, and some say that it really shouldn't be done to stain other people's clothes, and there is a thin short man, who jumped out and said loudly: "And listen to my old Hu's words, my old Hu is full of reading the scriptures and history, and I am used to making comments for others." Ladies and gentlemen, our Great Song Dynasty has always governed the country with benevolence and courtesy, and the great cannibals have come all the way to our Great Song Dynasty, and they have the same religion and sect with the Uighurs who live here, and we must treat them with benevolence and courtesy, less against their customs, less against their will, and be tolerant of each other......"

Bang!

Before the dwarf could finish speaking, he was knocked down with a punch.

But it was Zhou Quan who knocked him over with a fist: "Since ancient times, I have only heard of those who follow the customs of the country, but I have never heard of the custom of suppressing oneself and flattering the people of other countries...... Get out of the way, you who are good at reading and don't want to understand, and you can't understand the essentials of speaking, I'm here to judge today's matter! ”

He paced over, looked up and down at the big cannibal's clothes, and then said, "According to the current market price, this clothes are worth about 500 yuan. ”

The only person who made the meatloaf was a wry smile, and five hundred yuan was also a big expense for him, but if this matter could be resolved, it would be better not to delay today's business and save some trouble.

He counted out five hundred dollars and handed them to the big cannibal. The big cannibal didn't make much money, took the money string, and scolded a few more words, but Zhou Quan said again: "Since you have received the money, you can go and buy a new clothes, this old clothes are dirty, it is better to leave them for the meat sellers, how about it?" ”

When the great cannibal got the money, he thought that he could no longer wear his clothes, so he took off his clothes and threw them to the meatloaf seller.

The two of them have their own place, although the intention is not enough, but Zhou Quan's disposal is indeed fair. They were about to leave, and Zhou Quan said: "This matter is over, neither of you is allowed to do anything again, everyone present can testify to it!" ”

Everyone nodded, and on the side of the meatloaf shop, the owners of the rest of the small shops also responded.

Zhou Quan pulled the owner of the meatloaf shop aside and whispered a few words, the owner was originally a little annoyed, but at this time, his eyes suddenly widened, his eyes showed a strange light, and then he was secretly happy.

When Zhou Quan was about to leave with his master again, one of the big cannibals did not leave, as if he was waiting for him.

"I've seen this son!"

When Zhou Quan came, he spoke in stiff Chinese, and he also greeted Zhou Quan. Zhou Quan smiled: "You are waiting for me, is there something wrong?" ”

The villain smelled the fragrance of clothes beside Childe...... What kind of juice does it taste like? The big cannibal laughed.

He was a businessman, and perfume was one of the many commodities he came to sell in the Great Song Dynasty, so he knew by a sniff that the fragrance of clothes around Zhou Quan was by no means any kind of perfume he sold, but a kind of perfume that he had never smelled before.

A better perfume than the one he had come to sell!

Finding this, how could he not stop and ask, if this perfume is in the Jingshi Daxing, he will lose a lot of money this time!

On the contrary, if he can get his hands on the origin of the perfume, he may be able to make a lot of money.

Zhou Quan was surprised, the fragrance of the clothes was not on him, but on the teacher next to him.

Dongping, Shandong Province is rich in a kind of rose, with a strong aroma, and when Zhou Quan was looking for suitable raw materials, someone mentioned this flower. Zhou Quan spent a lot of money and manpower to collect enough Dongping roses, distillation and extraction, after dozens of failures, finally refined only ten bottles of perfume, one of which was given to the teacher.

The master was very happy about this, and every day he sprinkled a drop on his clothes, so he was sniffed by the nose of the big cannibal dog.

He knew the etiquette of the Great Song Dynasty, so he didn't dare to pester the little girl to ask, so he could only come and ask Zhou Quan.

"Oh, it's rose dew." Zhou Quan responded.

"Childe, I don't know where this incense comes from, the villain is willing to exchange it for the origin of this incense!" The big cannibal took out a shiny stone.

But it's a sapphire.

The big cannibal came to the Great Song Dynasty by sea to pass through Ceylon, so the big cannibal brought some sapphires from Ceylon. Only one piece in his hand is worth 100 yuan in the Great Song Dynasty, and he took it to Zhou Quan to see, which can be regarded as bold.

Zhou Quan puffed at the sapphire.

He has never been interested in luxury, and unless it allows him to make money, he has to use it himself, and he really can't think of any difference between sapphire and blue glass.

Seeing that Zhou Quan just glanced at it, he didn't even look at the sapphire, and the big food merchant was shocked. He is a transatlantic businessman, and his eyes are extremely poisonous, so he can naturally judge that Zhou Quan's disdain is by no means contrived, but really does not take sapphires to heart.

He didn't expect that Zhou Quan was not interested in this kind of thing that was cold and hungry and could not bring benefits to himself, but he guessed that the young man in front of him must be from a rich and noble family, otherwise it would not be like this.

"Childe ......"

"You're a big cannibal?" Zhou Quan asked.

There was a big food merchant in Haizhou, but the merchant didn't look very reliable, and Zhou Quan just asked him about some big food. But the big food merchant in front of him, since he can take out the gems, he should have some strength.

"Yes, the villain came from the big food, the boat traveled for two years, and the party went to the Great Song Dynasty, first in Guangzhou Mansion, working for Sinabdhara, after the death of the owner, the villain worked alone, but he made some money." The big cannibal spoke very honestly: "I forgot to report to the son, the villain's surname is Pu, and his name is Mabe." ”

Although he is honest, how can Zhou Quan not understand the mentality of such a Tibetan person, it seems to be deferential, but in fact it is secretly scheming.

"You're in the perfume business?" Zhou Quan asked again.

"Yes, the villain does all kinds of business, spices, gems, as long as the Great Song Dynasty needs it, the villain will transport it."

"I want a horse." Zhou Quan said.

"What?"

"I want a good breed horse, and if you can get it for me, I'll tell you where the spices come from!"

Zhou Quan has been thinking about how to breed good horses in Jeju, relying on the horse breeds from Goryeo and Liao, and he doesn't know whether it will succeed or not, he remembers that in the first life, the Arabian horse has always been the source of good horses, so he asked this Pu Ma Be.

Pu Ma should not be stunned, the big food is a good horse, and it is also restricted from leaving the country, and if you want to cross the ocean and transport it to the Great Song Dynasty, it is absolutely impossible.

But as a businessman, you can't say "you can't do it" to your potential customers!

"Villains can try, but it costs a lot of ......"

"Then I don't care, if you can bring a good stallion, you will naturally have no benefit, if not, or take some fakes to coax me...... Whether he can leave the Great Song Dynasty alive is a question. By the way, my surname is Zhou, my name is Zhou Quan, if you can bring a good big food stallion, you will report this name to find me. ”

As soon as Zhou Quan signed up, this Pu Ma Bu stayed there for the whole time.

In the world of big food merchants, the name Zhou Quan is definitely a legend!

Pu Mabu and others came all the way from Guangzhou to the Great Song Dynasty, during which they only spent money on the official government, and they didn't know how much they spent, and the reason why they invested so much was that this name was very important!

Merchants pursue profits, big food merchants come to the Great Song Dynasty across the ocean, and they regard the word Li as heavier than anything else, Pu Ma Don't have soft feet, and kneel directly in front of Zhou Quan: "It turns out that the official is the God of Wealth of Zhou...... Ask the officials for help! ”

"Please, help?" Zhou Quan was stunned.

"The villain came from arrogance and ate thousands of miles because he got a disease...... Lack of money and illness, ask the official to give a prescription to renew the life of the villain! ”

This guy has been in Guangzhou for a long time, and his official speech is very smooth, and he can even play tricks with Zhou Quan.

Zhou Quan laughed twice, and his heart moved slightly.

Although there is nothing he can see about the Great Food, this group of Great Food Merchants has traveled all over the world, at least in terms of navigation technology, quite unique, in addition, their understanding of geography is also above that of the Song people at this time.

More importantly, from the Great Food to the Great Song Dynasty, it was necessary to pass through Tianzhu - at this time, there was no Indian state, only Tianzhu and Zhuyuan and a large number of small princely states. There are no products in the big food, but there are many products in the South Asian subcontinent, such as cotton and, of course, population.

Zhou Quan thought of Liuqiu, the development of Liuqiu, he initially only thought of the gold mines in the north, but if there is enough manpower, then the wasteland on it can be developed into grain fields.

He didn't have this plan originally, but at this time, his mind was drifting, so he asked, "If I want to use a ghost slave, can you help me transport it?" ”

"What does Childe mean?" Pu Mabe, who was kneeling on the ground, was stunned for a moment.

The so-called ghost slave is a black slave. At this time, Zhu Yu of the Song Dynasty recorded in his notebook "Pingjiang Can Talk" that the rich people in Guangzhou have many ghost slaves, which are extremely powerful, and can bear 100 catties. Zhou Quan didn't know Zhu Yu, but when he paid attention to the affairs of Quanzhou, Mingzhou and Guangzhou, he also learned about it, and knew that there were quite a large number of ghost slaves in Guangzhou.

"A ghost slave, I'll give fifty guan, you transport a hundred, that's five thousand guan - and I can give you the meeting of the East China Sea Chamber of Commerce, you can use the meeting to buy the goods of the East China Sea Chamber of Commerce, any goods of the East China Sea Chamber of Commerce, and then you can transport these goods to Tianzhu, Dashi and even the countries further west, and even the Daqin side of Europa, for example, perfume, I believe that the people over there in Daqin will like it."

When Zhou Quan said this, his eyes flashed, as if a devil was tempting others.

He threw out a bait.

Now that the Turks have not yet risen and the communication between the East and the West has not been completely cut off, the Great Cannibals can trade between Europe and Asia. It is impossible for a big food merchant like Pu Ma Beh to refuse the bait he throws.

After all, their religion and customs were not opposed to the slavery of pagan people.

Sure enough, Pu Mabe's breathing became short, and he knew very well how popular Da Song's goods were.

In addition to traditional porcelain and silk, the new snow sugar in the past two years, as well as the new ironware of Li Guojian, and even steel tools, are all extremely popular items. He didn't need to bring back the big food, he only needed to transport these things to Sriwijaya and sell them to the countries of the South China Sea, and he could exchange them for a large amount of gold and silver!

"Really?" He couldn't help but ask.

"Of course it's true, but if you can bring me a good breed horse, maybe one horse will be worth more than a boatload of ghost slaves." Zhou Quan said with a smile.

Before his smile fell, he could hear the sound of quarrels at the meatloaf shop over there! (To be continued.) )
