Chapter 930: It's Not Easy to Do Business (2)
Just when Zhao Lin informed the deputy of Miandao to expand the ice business, Qi Ke also wrote a reply to Bai Qing, and the price was set at two two six, suggesting that the negotiator should be in charge of the village chief Jia, and at the same time, the sea boat would not return empty, you can ask the other party if you want to bring any goods back, like Heyang Prefecture has always been famous for tea by virtue of the advantageous geographical environment of Jiuzhi Mountain, and the tea shipments in Dong'an Mansion are very large, and most of them have flowed overseas.
If Bai Jiajun comes forward to do this follow-up business, maybe he can talk about the price of cotton, after all, the merchant ship comes all the way to make money, and the quotation is naturally high, and it can earn a little more, and then use it for purchase, as long as the other party sees that the point of earning can also enter high-quality goods, profitable, then everything is easy to talk about, and the two sides have a good start, and the merchant ship will come again.
On the same night, Miandao flew a trip to Liangshui Town, and the deputies stepped on anti-gravity skateboards to pick up the goods directly from the air, and scattered them to five ships, all of which were bags of straw potato flour, pretending to be food for the crew, and used to do food business with Bai Jiajun.
In the evening of the next day, Bai Qing received a reply from Qi Ke, and when he saw the above suggestion, his eyes lit up, and he immediately wrote two letters, one to Ma Zhiwen in Liangshui Town, asking him to ask the village chief Jia to come forward to talk, and the other to his father, asking if there was a good source of tea to do this business.
After Ma Zhiwen received the letter, he immediately contacted Village Chief Jia, and the two boarded Ocean No. 1 again.
The captain unsurprisingly said that he wanted to buy tea, and he heard that different varieties of tea could be bought in Dong'an Province, so the first destination of the fleet was to go there.
The village chief Jia immediately introduced the varieties of special tea in Jiuzhi Mountain, and successfully asked the captain about the type and quantity of tea that the captain planned to buy, and the two sides reached an agreement that bartering business can also be done, but the tax to be paid is still the responsibility of their buyers.

Probably because the business was promising, the captain was in a good mood, and casually asked the other party if he wanted food, their global trading bank now happened to have a supply of cotton and grain, if this business was done, they would come back next time.
Speaking of food, Ma Zhiwen immediately became energetic, and the captain introduced the grass and potatoes, and learned that it was not a staple food such as rice and noodles, but it was also a staple food of the country where it was produced.
The captain generously sent them ten catties of straw potato flour as a sample, and carefully explained the characteristics of the baked cakes, which is best eaten while it is hot, and grinds its teeth when it is cold, and can choke people to death overnight.
Ma Zhiwen and Village Chief Jia shared half of the straw potato flour, tasted it with his soldiers, and wrote down the tasting feelings, and asked Village Chief Jia to send a boat to send it to Qianhu in Donglin County together with the remaining straw potato flour.
As soon as Bai Qing received a reply from his father promising to inquire about the source of tea, he received Ma Zhiwen's letter again, and he was overjoyed, not only was the trade temporarily negotiated, but the seller actually had a supply of grain, even if it was not the rice and noodles they were used to eating, it was also a new kind of miscellaneous grain that could supplement when the rice and noodles were insufficient.
Qi Ke naturally also received the straw potato flour sent by the village chief of Jia, and tried it in a variety of ways, only salt or sugar was put in the batter and the electric baking pan was used to brand it while it was hot, and the taste was not bad, it was very soft, but the best way to eat it was to be baked into a thin crust to wrap vegetables and meat, and eat it now, otherwise one cake would not be eaten and the other one would be cold, and the taste would begin to cost teeth.
