From the bottom of my heart, the value of the things in the supermarket is not high, and earning 20% is already good, and there is no need to make 100% or even more profits.

One is that these things are now possible to make a lot of money because of the technology monopoly, but if Zhang Hongbin's forces can directly manufacture them in the future, then the price of these things will inevitably fall sharply. When the time comes, won't those who bought these low-priced goods at a high price be dissatisfied? Rather than offending people at that time, it is better not to offend in the first place, it is better to provoke a gentleman than a villain, and to be remembered by a group of grudge-holding villains in the back, that is definitely not a good thing.

Moreover, for Zhang Hongbin, these commodities are an important way to upgrade his experience.

Only he knows that he must complete a certain amount of consumption before he can upgrade the system. The system is upgraded, and there are better things to buy. Under this premise, a large number of supermarket goods are sold, and the cumulative consumption is the focus. Supermarkets do a good job of this, at least the price is sold with full reference to the price of the future goods, so it will not be expensive, or even cheap to death. But it doesn't care what the price is outside, it only cares how much you buy with the list price. In other words, even if you sell 10,000 taels of silver for a fitting mirror outside, you only need five taels of silver to buy the same product in the supermarket.

Of course, don't forget that as the level of the system increases, Zhang Hongbin can gradually enjoy a certain amount of purchase discounts. Now it is the fifth layer, in other words, he can enjoy a 20% discount on every qiē product. So he can buy a mirror for five taels for four taels.

As a businessman, this can undoubtedly accumulate wealth quickly, but if you go the high-end route from the beginning, the result is that people simply cannot afford it. After all, luxury goods are a commodity with the smallest consumer base. Even the wealthiest family can't afford to spend a million taels of silver idle and bored to buy a dozen or twenty mirrors to play with at home.

The end result is that a lot of money is made, but the consumption cannot be increased at all. Ten or twenty years, the system has not been upgraded, then it is really bitter.

Zheng Zhilong's cooperation intention is actually a means to make money.

The accumulation of consumption in China and the accumulation of money abroad have always been the principles implemented by Zhang Hongbin. But these commodities are not trivial, and they are no longer commodities in a sense, but a proof of ability. Or it can be thought that Zhang Hongbin wants to make these commodities the main commodities of Daqin, and the chamber of commerce of Daqin will be the exclusive agent. On this basis, even the second-tier dealers can only buy from him and sell these goods printed with the Daqin trademark.

Through this method, the business card of Daqin is launched. Not only at home, but also abroad, let others think of Daqin when they talk about luxury.

In this way, Daqin's influence in the world can be enhanced. Relatively if it is to contract things to Zheng Zhilong, then it means that Daqin is just a role similar to that of a luxury wholesaler, and the influence on people has suddenly dropped several levels, which is naturally something that Zhang Hongbin does not want to see.

The negotiation with Zheng Zhihu took five hours, and Zheng Zhihu was more or less dissatisfied with Zhang Hongbin's refusal to ship to them. However, the source of the goods was originally in the hands of others, and Zheng Zhihu was helpless. He can now only fulfill the second task given to him by Zheng Zhilong: to spy on the source of the goods.

As for the slave trade business mentioned by Zhang Hongbin, Zheng Zhihu also has a lot of interest, especially Zhang Hongbin said that he needs a large number of black Africans (not those lazy natives in Southeast Asia), as well as those Chinese who are not very happy in Southeast Asia.

Zheng Zhihu was still very satisfied with the price given by Zhang Hongbin, especially when Zhang Hongbin proposed that he could ask Hongmaoyi to help him find a few crops. That price is basically how much money you can bring in exchange for real money, or firecrackers and cannons.

For Daqin's firearms, Zheng Zhihu also knows a little bit, that is indeed a good thing, at least Da Ming can expand at such a fast speed. Shandong and Henan, which were set up, were recovered, and there was no doubt about the strength of their firearms.

It's just a three-leaf rubber tree, cinchona tree, Zheng Zhihu was in a fog, Zhang Hongbin had to draw the appearance, plus a detailed description to him, and let him go back and figure out a way.

The meeting was not a very happy one, at least Zheng Zhihu's initial goal was not achieved. However, it is not bad to have an unexpected gain, and he then proposed to stay in Chang'an for a period of time to feel the atmosphere and prosperity here, and Zhang Hongbin agreed. Anyway, Zheng Zhihu wouldn't know that there were more than a dozen internal guards ambushed by his side.

said goodbye to Zheng Zhihu, and the sky was already dark.

Back in the room, Zhang Hongbin locked himself directly in the study. He didn't enter the supermarket, but looked at the huge map of China and looked at it for a long time.

One can be called the emperor by someone else's defense of two places, for example, he only defeated the Tang Dynasty in Hedong and Guanzhong, and he also occupied the land of the two provinces, is it too strange that he has not been called the emperor for a long time? Maybe it's because you've been influenced by the previous game, and you feel that you don't unify the world, or you have an absolute advantage, and the enemy has no room to turn over, so it's the best time to become the emperor, right?

Second, Daqin has not fought a war with the outside world for almost two years, and the soldiers train and train again every day, but I'm afraid that they have begun to get bored, right? How many years of youth a young person has, it is not a way to spend it on the training ground. Even if there is already a state-of-the-art promotion system, how difficult it is to be promoted in peacetime, and the lack of actual combat experience makes this officer incompetent.

Therefore, it is time to start a foreign war. Great Qin has accumulated enough war potential and materials, even if it is a protracted war, Great Qin is fully capable of consuming it with the other party to the end!

So, where exactly is the next goal? Beizhili next to Shanxi, or Huguang and Henan in the southeast?

For the inland, Zhang Hongbin has no interest, not to mention the lack of resources in Beizhili, Henan has just been beaten down by the Ming Dynasty, and a lot of messes are called trouble, Huguang is now completely competing for hegemony of the Three Kingdoms, and the stalls are even worse. Therefore, the target can only be the Sichuan that he first formulated.

After thinking about a lot of things, Zhang Hongbin walked out of the study, played with his two children who were almost one year old, and fell asleep accompanied by his wife and concubine.

The next day, Zhang Hongbin convened a cabinet meeting, and ministers from various ministries also came to observe.

At the meeting, Zhang Hongbin made it clear that the founding concept of the Great Qin military industry was established, and said that the fact that two years of peace had made many people relax. Moreover, it was clearly stated at the conference that it was still a period of conquest in all directions, and Great Qin only occupied the northwest of China, and had not yet achieved the true unification of China. So, today, after two years of accumulation, it's time for Daqin's army to go out and hang out. Otherwise, if it is a little later, others will think that Daqin has become a shrunken turtle, and just think about being the king and hegemony in the northwest.

In fact, when Zhang Hongbin mentioned this argument, many people, especially the soldiers, burst out with absolute enthusiasm.

It can be seen that the violent factor in these guys' bodies has not disappeared, but is just latent and lurking. suppressed it for too long, but suddenly the lid was lifted by himself, and this extremely destructive violent factor was completely released.

Zhang Hongbin just said that he would fight Sichuan, and many people agreed, especially Yang Hong, Li Dingguo, and Cao Wenzhao, who gave a detailed battle plan. Subsequently, Niu Jinxing, who seemed to have been marginalized, also began to speak, clarifying the main points of this battle, as well as some key factors of logistics and supply.

In just half a day, a feasible and swift battle plan was determined.

The battle against Sichuan can be described as imminent.
