Chapter XXIII Promotion of Commerce

Looking at it from the surface, although Xiliangcheng suffered a loss, it gave Ma Yun great benefits. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

However, Li Gu is not a fool, and Ma Yunqi has given so many benefits, on the one hand, the two sides can maintain a cooperative relationship, and on the other hand, he can solve a problem for Xiliang City and avoid falling out with Xiliang horse thieves.

Ma Yunqi got the benefits from Xiliangcheng here, and it was naturally not okay not to give some return gifts, so he promised Li Gu that there were good horses in the shop, and Xiliangcheng had the right of first refusal, but if Xiliangcheng didn't want it, then it would have to be sold to others.

After listening, Li Gu did not object.

On the next day, Ma Yunqi led a thousand horse thieves and dragged a whole 3,000 horses into Xiliang City under the heavy inspection of the guards of Xiliang City, and joined Xiliang Commerce.

Xiliangcheng began to sell horses.

In the commercial block in the east of the city, the shops given to Ma Yunqi are three times larger than those of other players (that is, the walls of the three shops are opened and then decorated), which makes Ma Yunqi feel that his face is bright.

How is the business of Xiliang City, Ma Yunqi has long said in the old man who lives in the city, or Ma Yunqi has been coveted for a long time, this is not dozing off when someone sends a pillow, Li Gu is still very good at being a person, in private Ma Yunqi gave a batch of thousands of horses Li Gu, Li Gu did not say a word and naturally accepted it, giving so many benefits to Xiliang horse thieves, this horse Li Gu deserved to accept it, and gave it to absolutely boring.

Ma Yunqi is a smart person, and he is the only one in the horse industry in Xiliangcheng, so the future business can be said to be coming one after another, but on the first day of opening, he will definitely become famous.

The things in the store have already been prepared, just waiting for Ma Yunqi's people to enter.

In a burst of cheers and applause from the relatives of the Xiliang horse thief and the Xiliang horse thief, "Only Lack Bole" was officially opened, and the name was named by Ma Yunqi himself.

Outside the crowd, Li Gu was watching indifferently with Gotulu beside him, thinking that this Ma Yunqi had really read a few books, and even Bole knew him.

Suddenly, Gotulu whispered in Li Gu's ear: "Adjutant General, come here." ”

Li Gu looked behind him, and saw the Heavenly Hermit with four guards with knives walking towards him, and the official was crushed to death, Li Gu took Gotulu and walked quickly towards the Heavenly Hermit.

"I've seen the Adjutant General." Li Gu and Gotulu bowed their hands to the Heavenly Hermit with respectful faces.

Tianyinke nodded, looked at the crowd and said with a smile: "Today is much more lively than usual." ”

"Today, Ma Yunqi's shop officially opened, and the relatives of the horse thieves living in the city all came to cheer, which was naturally much more lively than usual." Li Gu didn't dare to slack off at all, this lieutenant general, it is not as simple as it seems, just imagine that a person can go deep into the capital alone, find out so much confidential information, and even get the legendary ancient seven swords back, will such a person be simple? And his identity when he was in the capital, but he was the commander of the Jinyi Guard, what kind of position was that? The emperor is really a real soldier.

Even the emperor of the Celestial Dynasty trusts someone, this person is not ordinary deep.

The hermit didn't know how Li Gu thought of himself, and for Li Gu, the Sky Hermit only regarded him as an ordinary NPC, but knowing everything Li Gu had done from them who were absolutely bored couldn't help but make the Sky Hermit look at Li Gu differently.

Now, the identity of the hermit is the deputy general of the city guard of Xiliang City, seeing that the hermit first arrived in Xiliang City, he was absolutely bored and arranged four guards with knives for him, so that the hermit was familiar with the situation in the city first.

"Mr. Li, what are they going to do?" Tianyinke looked at the three tall and strong horses that were pulled out of the door of "Wei Lack Bole", and couldn't help but ask Li Gu.

Li Gu frowned slightly, but he also looked over, shook his head and said, "My subordinates don't know very well. But there are some worries in his heart, he is not afraid of Ma Yunqi's people making trouble, but there is a new deputy general by his side, who knows what his temperament is? Jin Yiwei is very cruel.

Ma Yunqi walked out, arched his hand to the people around him, and said loudly: "Today, the shop is open, thank you for your support, in order to ask for a lottery......" and then pointed to the three horses and said: "Take the lead in taking out these three horses for sale, I don't know if you are interested?" ”

The players and merchants present naturally saw that these three horses were incompatible, but they didn't expect it to be a thousand miles horse, which is a really good horse, so someone asked how much money was needed?

"Don't sell for money." When Ma Yunqi heard someone ask how much money, Ma Yunqi's face was a little wrong, he had been bartering with Xiliangcheng all along, where had he talked about money?

"Don't want money?" When many players heard this, they were all puzzled and discussed.

Ma Yunqi raised his voice and continued: "Yes, don't want money, just exchange for food and weapons and equipment." ”

Then, it caused a sensation.

Someone else asked: "How much do you exchange for a thousand-mile horse?" ”

Hearing someone ask, Ma Yun was very happy, and hurriedly said: "1,000 weapons, 1,000 sets of equipment (helmets and shoes are all included), 10,000 catties of white flour, 3,000 catties of meat." ”

Those who don't know know know that Ma Yunqi is preparing to fight as soon as they hear it, and those who know naturally know that Ma Yunqi's Xiliang horse thief is at war with an alien horse thief, and it is natural to want this, but ......

1,000 weapons, 1,000 sets of equipment, not to mention the quality, just calculate the cheapest weapon for 5,000 copper coins, 1,000 is 500 gold, and the cheapest set of equipment is 1,000 gold, 1,000 sets is 1,000 gold, 1,500 gold to buy a thousand-mile horse is not expensive, but ......

Meat is cheaper between 500 and 1000 copper coins (the game is full of animal monsters, and if you kill them, you can cut them off and sell them to the store, so meat is cheap); But this white flour, it is embarrassing, the price of a pound of white flour sold by the system is between seven and ten gold, the more people who buy it, the price will not keep rising, if you really buy 10,000 catties of white noodles, let alone 150,000 gold.

Regardless of the fraction, 150,000 gold to buy a thousand-mile horse, this seems to be too expensive, right?

The price of horses sold in other city systems is 5,000 copper coins for inferior horses, 10 gold for medium horses, and 500 gold for good horses.

As for why many players are interested in horses here, there is no doubt that the performance of horses produced in Xiliang is three or four times higher than that of similar horses in other cities, and there are no horses for sale in other cities, but there is no return, and a horse does not need to be so expensive, right?

All of a sudden, everyone lost interest, and those who should go back to see the shops went back to see the shops, and those who should go to repair the city walls went to repair the city walls.

Ma Yunqi was dumbfounded all of a sudden, no one wants it to be so cheap? The people were also scattered, only the relatives of the Xiliang horse thieves remained, and the people and players of Xiliang who had already gone back and forth to the store, but none of them walked towards Ma Yunqi's store again.

found that the people surrounding the "only lack of Bole" dispersed, and Li Yu hurriedly pulled the hermit to the side of the wall, for fear of being discovered by Ma Yunqi.

At this time, Li Gu was angry, but he didn't expect Ma Yunqi to be smart and not bad, and he actually sold it to other merchants at his own price, which is undoubtedly the most stupid behavior.

The joy in Li Gu's heart, don't mention it.

"The thief's nature is hard to change, and the lion opens his mouth as soon as he comes." Tianyinke has also bought a few horses, and he knows the price of weapons and equipment, but he doesn't know the price of white flour meat, or when a nearby merchant calculated the price of white noodles just now, he was startled.

Professional merchant players, for the city system to sell and purchase the price of the purchase of the price is clear, the price fluctuations they will know for the first time, because this is their way to make money, such as Yangzhou, Suzhou two cities of silk brocade peddled to Xishu, the Northern Wei Dynasty can earn one or two times, but in the harvest year, the food in each city fluctuates little, meat is more common, the general players are to hunt and then sell to merchants, so the food can make little money is likely to lose money, But it is different when Xiliangcheng sets up a business, all the grain sold in Xiliangcheng is profitable, and even the price of meat sold to Xiliangcheng will be 1,000 copper coins higher per catty.

Therefore, the merchants in Xiliang City are very clear about the price of grain.

On the way back to the City Lord's Mansion, Tianyin Ke proposed to Li Gu: "Why, Xiliang City doesn't open an auction house?" ”

"Auction house?" Li Gu was stunned for a moment, and then said with a smile: "The city wants to have our blacksmith shop, cloth shop, and grain store, most of our shops are mainly for purchases, and those merchants don't even look at the things in our store, not to mention that there are other merchants who sell weapons and equipment much better than us, so we can't sell anything in the auction house." ”

Tianyinke nodded, Li Gu said it well, there is an auction house in White Emperor City, there is a mountain of treasures in the auction house, and there is no worry about whether there is anything to sell, and what can the poor and white people in Xiliang City sell it?

However, Tianyinke has a different idea: "There are many vacant houses and land in the city, and if we clear a place to build an auction house, it won't take up too much space, right?" ”

"Naturally, it won't take up space, but there must be something to sell?" Li Gu glanced at the Heavenly Hermit, but did not show an impatient look, Li Gu knew that the Heavenly Hermit's proposals were all for the benefit of Xiliang City.

"Actually, we don't have anything to sell."

"Oh?" Li Gu suddenly stood and looked at the Heavenly Hermit with a puzzled look, waiting for the Heavenly Hermit to continue.

"We can build an auction house, we can act as a middleman, and we will receive a few percent of the proceeds from the sale of items in the auction house, and then we will only need to send soldiers and a steward." The hermit also stopped.

Li Gu's thumb and forefinger touched his nose.

Everyone knows that once Li Gu thinks about a problem, he will have this action.

Tianyinke ignored Li Yu's thoughts, and continued: "Moreover, our auction house doesn't frequently auction once every half a month, or once a month, isn't it?" If ......" the Sky Hermit smiled deeply.

Li Gu, who was thinking about things, also felt that there were soldiers and a steward who were stationed at hand, and the address of the auction house was even more grasped, and he could open wherever he wanted...... Before he could continue to think about it, he was interrupted by the Heavenly Hermit, and then seeing the deep smile of the Heavenly Hermit, Li couldn't help but tremble.

"What if...... Let's take out one or two more martial arts cheats for auction, how much money do you say we can make? ”

"There is also a tax to enter the city, and they will also need accommodation and food at that time......" Li Yu suddenly interrupted the words of the hermit.

Li Gu fully understands the meaning of Tianyinke, the auction house is just an introduction, and the most important thing is to drive the flow of people, let more people come to Xiliangcheng, and promote the economic development of Xiliangcheng.

There's no way you don't eat and sleep without eating, right?

Moreover, Tianyinke knows that the prey near Xiliang City has been almost beaten by Xiliang City and Xiliang horse thieves and alien horse thieves, and the system refresh is not enough to brush up the three forces, so there are fewer and fewer prey in Xiliang, of course, you have the ability, if you are not afraid of death, you can go to the Wild Wolf Mountain Group to hunt.

Therefore, when entering the territory of Xiliang City, it will take more than half a month to reach Xiliang City, and the food on the player's body should also be consumed by then. Xiliang City, of course.

Early in Xiliangcheng, there was a rule that merchants were not allowed to sell grain privately, and once they found that their property had been confiscated, they would be killed on the spot.

Similarly, there are several groups of cooperative merchant groups in Xiliang City, which are specialized in purchasing grain from various places and transporting it to Xiliang City to sell to Xiliang.

In such a situation, if the player does not look for Xiliang City to buy food, who else can he find to buy it?

In addition, the price of the food sold in Xiliang City is the purchase price, and now the construction of the city wall in Xiliang City has attracted nearly 100,000 players, and their daily consumption of food, Xiliang City is now not covered (the players who built the city before not only have wages but also food), so once their food is exhausted, they can only buy from Xiliang City; However, I am afraid that before the establishment of the auction house, the price of grain will rise, which will be another big gain.

Li Gu's face at this time could hardly hide a smile of joy, and he couldn't wait to tell the absolutely boring Xiliang City Lord about this good strategy.
