Chapter 43: A Lot of Gold
The transaction was carried out in a very orderly manner, and the Mohican women, who had completed the transaction, hurried home with happy smiles on their faces, ready to surprise the men and children of the family.
For a while, in front of Zhao Hongyu's trading point, which was a yurt specially used for trade, the crowd attracted many Mohican people to stop and watch.
The number of women participating in the gold panning is not very large, that is, more than a hundred.
And most of the Mohican women, although they listened to the mobilization of the black bear, they did not show much interest.
After all, they still have no idea that 'stones' can be exchanged for goods.
In order not to lose face, the black bear could only mobilize the soldiers who had a good relationship with him and let them persuade their own women to pan for gold, so that they would not lose in front of Zhao Hongyu.
Zhao Hongyu didn't think much about the situation that had just begun.
In his opinion, these are very normal things.
When the time comes, as long as the women who have benefited from the early gold panning are successful, then other women will definitely join in.
What Zhao Hongyu needs is someone to set an example and bring a sensational template to Moxican.
Now that he had succeeded, the Mohican women, who had worked as gold diggers in the gold mines for several days, had reaped the fruits of their own hard work.
After watching the women happily leave with the exchanged rice, mustard and other goods, the eyes of the surrounding women who had not participated before showed envy and regret.
Seriously, it really doesn't take much effort to pan for gold there, except for being a little colder.
These things can be done by even a child, and there is no difficulty.
Some of the women who went to pan for gold in the early days brought their children with them, and the mother was in charge of panning for gold and the children were in charge of keeping the gold.
Of course, children will not be idle, and they will also crouch down in the stream, or at the stream to pick up some gold exposed to the surface.
In this way, the harvest of those gold diggers is very great.
And the most trusted in Zhao Hongyu is the wives of the dozens of Mohican warriors who fought with him against the British businessman Baker.
Because their men respected Zhao Hongyu very much, under the persuasion of the men, these women joined the ranks of gold diggers at the first time.
Even the widows of several soldiers who died in battle joined in.
Arrange the widows of those death fighters to work as gold diggers, in fact, this is also what Zhao Hongyu meant.
After all, it was the men of the family who died in the war, but their wives and children, and even the elderly, still had to continue to live. But there is no man in the family, what can I do?
In the era of cold weapons, men are the pillars of a family.
Therefore, Zhao Hongyu kindly pulled those widows into the army of gold diggers.
And those widows, because of what Zhao Hongyu is doing now, are quite grateful to him. So they, the women, joined in as soon as possible.
Now, everything is as Zhao Hongyu envisioned, and the first batch of female gold diggers who have been 'rich' rewards have made a lot of waves in the hearts of others.
Hey!
Zhao Hongyu stood aside and laughed secretly in his heart.
It won't be long before the number of gold diggers expands.
Wang Shan stood beside Zhao Hongyu, a body behind him. There was also a vague smile on Wang Shan's face, and if you look closely, you will find that there is a hint of treachery hidden under his honest appearance.
"These women seem to be asking to be gold diggers in the evening, and it seems that everything is expected by you, Chief." After watching it for a while, Wang Shan said to Zhao Hongyu sincerely. …,
Zhao Hongyu didn't have a smug expression, but a calm and breezy look.
"It's nothing, if I can't even the native Indians of 1620, I'll live in vain." , it seems that the clouds are light and the wind is light, but in fact, Zhao Hongyu's heart has long been smiling.
It's just that he has to pretend on his face, otherwise he will be looked down upon.
"Chief, what did you do before you came to this world?"
As genetic people, they all know what Zhao Hongyu's origin is. Therefore, it is not surprising that Wang Shan asked such a question.
Zhao Hongyu also knew this very well, so he was not much shocked after hearing this.
Of course, genetic people know the way of the dragon, and they will not expose Zhao Hongyu's identity. At this point, genetic people are very limited by the rules.
This rule is very simple, the system sets that if the genetic person exposes the user's identity information to outsiders, then they will be forcibly erased.
As for how to erase?
That's the space-time trader thing, and there hasn't been such a problem yet, anyway.
"It doesn't matter what I did before, it wasn't very important before this era." , Zhao Hongyu obviously didn't want to talk about his previous life and identity, which would make him miss his life in the future world.
Seeing a trace of helplessness in the heart of his own leader, Wang Shanhe did not continue to entangle on this topic at the right time.
"Chief, how much gold do you think we can collect today?" When Wang Shan talked about gold, Zhao Hongyu, who was originally calm and light-hearted, suddenly flashed a few times. "I don't know much about this, but if everyone had 200 pieces of gold, I think we would have a good profit today, you know, 200 grams is almost a pound."
"Congratulations to the leader for making a fortune and taking us to a better life." , Wang Shan said auspicious words very ingeniously, which made Zhao Hongyu very happy.
More than a hundred people, although not a lot, also allowed the transaction to go through into the evening.
When the sun had set over the Akaraki Mountains, revealing a pale red 'big face', the deal was finally complete.
In the Moxie dry area, the figures of the women have been sparsely drawn, and more of them are the figures of the men who have returned from hunting.
Whether it was a yurt tent or a triangular tent, there were bursts of white smoke.
This is the housewives of Mohican, preparing dinner for today.
"Chief, we received a lot of gold today, and we definitely have the money to expand the number of people at this time." After Zhang Tie ordered his subordinates to carry the table into the tent behind him, he ran over in a hurry and reported good news to Zhao Hongyu.
Looking at the joy on Zhang Tie's face, Zhao Hongyu and Wang Shan were also infected, and their faces were full of joy.
"I've seen it all, the first transaction went smoothly and there were no problems." , Zhao Hongyu said to Zhang Tie and Wang Shan with a smile. "The weights and measures we made temporarily, the Mohicans also accepted them, so that we have a more reliable and stable income, and they also have a certain amount of purchasing power, so I finally don't have to worry about their purchasing power shrinking."
"Chief, let's do the math and see how much gold we've collected today." , Wang Shan proposed at this time.
Zhang Tie echoed and said, "Yes, yes, hurry up and calculate how much gold we have collected." Oh my god, I've never seen so much gold in my life, and I'm drooling. ”
Compared with the belligerent Song Hu and Wang Shan, who is bent on doing a good job of doglegs, Zhang Tie is obviously very interested in business. …,
Especially in the deal with the Mohicans, Zhang Tie volunteered to do this.
Seeing Zhang Tie constantly rubbing his hands together, looking like a fan of money, Zhao Hongyu and Wang Shan were both happy.
"Actually, we don't need to calculate how much gold there is, anyway, if you sell it to a space-time trader, it will automatically be converted. What I'm concerned about is how many commodities and materials we traded today. ”
Zhao Hongyu raised his legs, and under Zhang Tie's signal, walked towards the yurt specially built for trade. Strictly speaking, this yurt is the 'commissary' built by Zhao Hongyu in the Moxi dry camp.
If it becomes strong in the future, this yurt will definitely expand, and it is not impossible to form a big supermarket in the future.
And Zhao Hongyu didn't think about building his own residence in the Moxi dry area as soon as possible.
The reason why I live in the camp of Mohican now is also a last resort.
But if Zhao Hongyu has the strength, he wants to go to Manhattan Island, as long as that place is what Zhao Hongyu values the most.
Who will still live in yurts at that time, at least it will be a brick house.
Walking into the yurt, which was used as a 'commissary', everyone sat on the ground. The floor inside the tent is covered with a thick layer of bison skin, so you don't have to worry about resting your butt or anything.
Zhang Tie waved his hand, asked the gene's men to carry in the leather bag containing gold, and then let them leave the tent and go outside to watch the door.
Zhang Tie took matters into his own hands and opened the opening of the bison leather bag in front of Zhao Hongyu.
Whoa!
After opening the mouth of the bison leather bag, Zhang Tie pushed it so lightly, and the scattered gold in the bag was poured out.
For a while, the entire tent flashed with dazzling golden light.
Oh gold! It's really something that makes people's hearts pound, no wonder someone is willing to start a war for it, and someone is willing to kill sentient beings for it.
Looking at the scattered gold scattered in front of him, Zhao Hongyu's breathing became rapid.
It has to be said that although gold cannot be eaten or drunk, the temptation of gold to people is quite great.
Especially those who have been in the material society, people like Zhao Hongyu.
Wang Shan stretched out his tongue and licked his dry lips: "How much does this cost, if it is enough to marry a dozen daughters-in-law in my hometown." ”
