Chapter 145, Port Transactions
Egg powder and sugar were towed away by the British army in trucks, a full 10 truckloads were loaded, and the things bought by the British army were pulled away, so the next thing was the time for ordinary people to trade. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info
"Bang la la~" A large number of compressed biscuits, canned self-heating dry food, candy, chocolate and other things were taken to the deck, and people who wanted to buy things came on board and traded on the ship.
Seeing the things piled up on the deck, the people below were excited, the scene was chaotic, as for those British soldiers, they also looked at the things on the ship, they also wanted to buy them, they didn't care about the order at all, and these things were not expensive.
Indeed, these things are not expensive, about 50% of the market price, which is simply a conscience price that can no longer be a conscience in England.
Things that were not worth a few dollars in the past have now increased their net worth several times in the UK, and some have even reached more than ten times in the black market, and this has only increased by 50%, not what the conscience price is, it is much better than those capitalist profiteers.
At such a price, Lu Qiang can't even make money, and he hopes that a few torpedoes can consume all the money he earns from these things. Anyway, Lu Qiang is not here to make money, he is not one of those capitalists, he will not enjoy the fun of making money, money is a bunch of numbers for him, he sells things to open the British market, facilitate him to come in, and control the British economy, he is not here for money, and for power.
Seeing these things sold at such a low price, these British people were shocked beyond measure, and even thought that the other party was stupid, this is not their hypocrisy, but human nature, after all, they are influenced by capital every day, and it is not surprising that they have such thoughts.
The price is so low, and at the same time, they are a little worried, these things can't be bad or fake. But the people on the boat opened a few packages in public for them to see, and these people were sure that these things were indeed sold so low, and they all rushed to grab them like crazy.
But when it comes to payment, it is a little difficult, because they ask to pay in Xiling coins, and most people take pounds, this is not charged, but the exchange service is provided, and 10% of the operation fee is charged, if this is placed in the future, it is black and can no longer be black, but in the present, there is nothing, everyone has to take money for it.
The exchange rate between the Shining coin and the British pound is 5.273, which means that one pound can be exchanged for 5.273 yuan The current British pound is still quite valuable.
There are also people who exchange some valuable things at home, generally as much as they can exchange, and do not look for money.
Especially the self-heating rice, you don't need gas, just add some water. And the taste is also very good, I don't know how much better than their dark food, and the taste is also very rich, and most of all the money in the pocket is exchanged for hot dry food. As for canned candies, they are only eaten by rich families, and ordinary people can't afford them, after all, their price tags are quite high. Compressed biscuits, because of the bad taste, sold relatively little, are sold by some poor people, this is still used to fill the stomach, and it is a little salty, the taste is not too bad, better than dark cuisine.
The stuff of the whole ship gradually bottomed out, and even some of the gadgets carried by the crew were sold, in short, everything that could be sold.
A whole shipload of things was glared by them, leaving behind a large pile of banknotes, antiques, and gold.
Not to mention the banknotes, they are all pounds, and some of the Xiling coins brought have been exchanged, and there are all kinds of antiques, different countries, but there are more in China, and the gold and silver jewelry are even different, none of them are the same, there are rings, necklaces, bracelets, and so on.
The cargo ship full of wealth refueled the British harbor and left the port in a hurry, as for 18x, go back and repair it, anyway, the location of the two holes has been sealed and separated, and it can barely run back, but the damage to the hull is a little great.
After a day of docking in the port, the shipload of goods was replaced with these, and after the sale was done, they left the port in a hurry to prevent anything from happening.
"It's so easy to make money, it's only so much for one day." A look at a separate cabin full of gold, silver, jewelry, and all kinds of money, a hint of greed flashed in one of the crew's eyes. So much money is very shocking here, and it will also make people's hearts move, which is a huge test for them.
"Yes, I only earned a few oceans in a month of hard work." A crew member who looked like he was supposed to be a veteran looked at the wealth and sighed, his eyes were very flat when he looked at these glittering fronts, and he didn't think anything else.
"Bang!" The door was closed like a safe, and the treasures were locked inside, and the keys were left without the entire ship. The door was opened in the port of Brisbane, and it was kept open all the way until it was filled with money here in England, and the whole door was made of titanium, which could not be broken by human beings at all.
The reason why it is like this, or the trouble caused by money, many of these people are newcomers, their thinking is not hard enough, they are worried that they will see the money, and the wealth is not fake, if some of them are moved, it will be a disaster for the people on the ship, and the money doesn't matter, the key is that those people just died, they are all talents who have been cultivated for a long time, and they don't know where to recruit people when they die, so it's better to seal them up.
Of course, it's not that there is no benefit at all, and none of them have a little yellow croaker to dispel their minds.
The warship moored in the open sea, when it saw the cargo ship sailing over, immediately started, protected it in the middle, and left this place of right and wrong early.
There are a lot of submarines around here, most of them are German U-boats, but there are actually two Song-class submarines loitering here, which is just fun, and the waters off the coast of Britain are about to become a paradise for submarines.
The fleet departed, and the people on the shore were scattered, they had already got what they wanted, and no one went home with a dozen hugs of food, and they could not laugh or cry.
Ordinary people's families have a small amount of wealth again, but in exchange for these foods, they can eat enough for a while, and they don't have to eat those dark dishes every day.
However, the fat man standing at the top of the British pyramid had a somewhat unpleasant face, not because of the outflow of wealth from their country, but because a coin was entering their country.
He didn't expect that the other party actually came up with this settlement method to induce people in Britain to use Xiling coins, if he didn't care, in the long run, the whole of Britain would be ruled by Xiling coins, and the other party could control the entire British economy as long as he gave an order, which was really terrible, Qiu Fatzi frowned and thought about it, and issued an order, the use of Xiling coins in China is prohibited, and only in this way can Xiling coins be prevented from circulating in the country.
