Chapter 567: Help

Li Su sat in the sugarcane trading area on the first floor of the Haimao Center, but his ears were listening to the conversation between the stone and the pier next to him, from the information revealed in the words of the two, Li Su also guessed some of the experiences of the two, and also knew that these two people were doing business for the first time, and he couldn't help but show a smile on his face at the moment, thinking that these two young people were really bold, and they ran from Taiwan to the Lion City for the first time in business, but their luck was really bad, and it was estimated that this business would definitely not make much money.

Sure enough, as Li Su thought, the stone and the pier discussed for a long time, and finally went to the window, through the staff inside to interview a businessman who bought cane sugar, the result is also a coincidence, the other party happened to be on the spot, so the buyer and seller reached an agreement directly here, the buyer made a deposit of 20%, and agreed to pick up the goods tomorrow morning. However, the chubby dun kept muttering, saying that the business was a big loss, and the few pounds of meat he lost alone were more than this price.

However, after the two of them sold the goods, they did not leave the sea trade center immediately, but turned around in the hall on the first floor, among which the stone looked at the transaction information on each area very carefully, shaking his head and being excited for a while, and he didn't know what he was thinking in his heart?

And Li Su is very interested in these two fledgling young businessmen, plus he also wants to see what these two young people who have lost their first business, what will happen next? Therefore, while watching the situation in the various trading areas, he paid attention to the actions of the two men.

After a long time, Shi and Dunzi left the Sea Trade Center, and Li Su thought about it, and also went out of the Sea Trade Center with them. As a result, I saw the two of them come to a small stall next to the square to eat barbecue, and it happened that Li Su also felt a little hungry. In addition, the two little girls, Chouchou and Yanyan, were also clamoring to eat grilled seafood, so he simply sat down at the stall. Then I ordered a few barbecues, but unfortunately Datang didn't have beer, otherwise it would have been perfect.

"This lamb is so expensive. Brother Shi, what should we do next, is it not according to the original plan to purchase a batch of Hu people's goods and transport them to Taiwan, so that although the cane sugar does not make any money, at least the goods that go back can make another profit? Dunzi took a bite of roast lamb while complaining about the price of goods in the Lion City. He asked as he turned to the stone.

"Most of the supplies in the Lion City need to be transported from outside, for example, the mutton we eat is all live sheep from Taiwan, and the price is naturally expensive." Shi Shi said with a smile unhurriedly, "But our first business didn't make any money, just now we looked at the information of those transactions, and I found that even if it is the first floor of a small cargo transaction, most of the goods are not the starting price we can make, but there is a business we can do." But it's too risky. ”

At the end of the stone's speech, his face also showed hesitation, but Dunzi's eyes lit up after hearing this, although he was the partner. But in fact, in most cases, it is the stone who thinks of it, and he is just responsible for running errands. So now I hear the stone say that there is a business to be done. This made Dunzi's eyes light up immediately, and he immediately asked, "Brother Shi, tell me quickly." What kind of business is it? ”

However, the stone seemed a little hesitant, and after a long time did not answer the pier's words. Finally, he said: "Dunzi, now we have two choices, one is to stay in the Lion City for a few more days, and then we will stay in the Haimao Center to see if we can find some cheap Hu Ren goods, and then ship them to Taiwan." As for the other option, which is the risky business I just mentioned, is to buy a batch of cotton cloth in the Lion City. ”

"Cotton?" Dunzi was stunned for a moment after hearing this, and he didn't expect that the business that the stone said turned out to be cotton cloth, so he then asked with a puzzled face, "Brother Shi, what is there to do in the cotton cloth business, and we have also been to the cloth trading area just now, the price of cotton cloth here in the Lion City is not cheap, it is twice as expensive as that in Taiwan, who do we buy these high-priced cotton cloth to sell to?" ”

Dunzi obviously couldn't figure out the reason why the stone bought cotton cloth, but after Li Su next to him heard it, there was a smile on the corner of his mouth, it seems that although the young man next to him did not make money in the first business, he has a keen heart, but he is still a little too reckless, he wants to buy cotton cloth, probably he wants to take a risk and give it away.

I saw that the stone still said unhurriedly: "Compared with Taiwan, the cotton cloth in the Lion City is of course very expensive, but you also have to look at where it is compared, if it is compared with the island of Ceylon in the west, it is very cheap." ”

"Ceylon?" Hearing this name, Dunzi was also startled, before they went to the South Sea, they made up for the geographical knowledge of the sea, so Dunzi naturally knew where Ceylon Island was, but he was a little afraid and said, "Brother Shi, you're not kidding, Ceylon Island is in the west of Malacca, I heard that as long as you cross the Strait of Malacca, there will be more pirates on the road all of a sudden, although His Royal Highness the King of Qi sent a navy to encircle and suppress, but the effect is not very good, if we go there, isn't it to pin your head to the waistband of your trousers?" ”

After hearing this, the stone also sighed and said: "Of course I know that the route to Ceylon Island is more dangerous, but it is precisely because of this, as long as the goods can be transported there, the price can immediately rise several times or even ten times, and Ceylon Island is rich in gems, when we will transport a batch of gems back to Taiwan, a shot is even more sky-high, it can be said that as long as this business can be done, then the funds in our hands will be doubled more than a dozen, and then we will have the strength to do the business that we can't do now!" ”

In the end, when the stone thought of that beautiful prospect, even with his composure, he couldn't help but get excited, and his eyes were full of longing. Ever since he first stepped out of the village, this young fugitive had ambitions that ordinary people did not have, and now he was ready to take the first steps towards realizing his ambitions.

And when Dunzi heard the last words of the stone, he couldn't help but be infected, and the fat all over his body trembled slightly with excitement. In the end, he grabbed the roast mutton in front of him, and then took a few bites hard, and finally swallowed it, and then said excitedly: "It's done, in order to be able to eat meat every day in the future, it's worth taking a risk!" ”

Hearing the words of the pier, the stone laughed, and then the two of them raised the rice wine in front of them and clinked the glasses fiercely, and drank it all at the same time. However, when Li Su next to him heard this, he frowned slightly, it is naturally a good thing for young people to be motivated, but sometimes they are too impulsive, but they may bring great disasters to themselves.

Thinking of this, Li Su sighed secretly in his heart, he was able to meet these two people here, and he had been paying attention to them for a long time, and it was fate, since this was the case, then he would simply help them, so he stood up and walked to the two of them with a smile and said: "Two friends, I heard you just now, do you want to do business on Ceylon?" ”

Shishi, who was having a heated discussion with Dunzi, suddenly heard Li Su's words, and was also stunned at the time, and when he saw that it was a stranger talking to him, he couldn't help but be a little surprised, but although he didn't know Li Su, he couldn't help but feel good when he saw the other party's calm and polite appearance, and he also stood up and said: "Yes, I don't know what this big brother is called, but are you going to Ceylon Island?" ”

"Yes, if this eldest brother also wants to go to Ceylon, he can take our boat, but there are some dangers along the way, and the eldest brother must be mentally prepared!" The pier next to him also spoke.

When Li Su heard this, he smiled and waved his hand and said: "The two brothers misunderstood, I didn't want to go to Ceylon, but just now I happened to hear that you are going there, and it seems that you are going to go alone, so I want to remind you two that if you only have one or several ships, it is better not to go, or just wait, and wait until there is a large fleet to go to Ceylon, then you can follow them, so that you will not encounter pirates." ”

Hearing Li Su's kind reminder, Shi Shi sighed and said: "Thank you big brother for your kindness, we naturally know that it will be much safer to follow the big fleet, but don't hide it from the big brother, our brother is doing business for the first time, and he is not familiar with the Lion City, so he doesn't know what big fleet is going to Ceylon recently, and even if he meets the big fleet, whether people are willing to let us follow is still two words, plus the money in our hands is really not much, and the price of the Lion City is so expensive, if it is delayed like this, I'm afraid we're going to have to spend even the money on the goods. ”

Seeing that the stone was so honest, Li Su smiled and said: "It's a coincidence, I know that there is a large fleet going to Ceylon, and there will be warships to escort it at any time, and all the pirates on Tianzhu's side will be added together, I am afraid that they will not dare to fight the idea of this fleet, it can be said that it is very safe, plus I know the people of this fleet, if the two of you are in need, I can help you introduce it." ”

"This ...... This ......" Shi Shi was first surprised, and then he was so excited that he couldn't even speak, and the pier next to him was also flushed, and his eyes were full of gratitude when he looked at Li Su.

"Really...... Thank you so much for your big brother, I don't know what to call my big brother? Only then did Shi remember that he hadn't asked for people's names yet, which was really rude.

However, Li Su smiled and said: "You two don't have to be polite, we are also fateful, you tell me your current address, understand that I will send someone to contact you, but your goods must be prepared as soon as possible, I estimate that the big fleet will set sail in four days, if you don't prepare the goods by then, then people will not wait for you!" ”

"Big brother, don't worry, we will prepare the goods as soon as possible, and we will not miss the time!" When he heard that there were still four days, the stone was also shocked, and the time was really short, but if he rushed it, he could be ready, but after the excitement, he had some doubts in his heart: The big brother in front of him won't lie to himself, right?
