Chapter 1077: A New Merchant Came (1)
For the rest of the day, Zhao Lin had been busy arranging manpower, while Qi Ke was eating in the living room of the villa while studying the distribution map of the farmland in the village.
At that time, the cultivated land of the whole village was uniformly demarcated and demarcated, so they were all next to each other, and there were diligent people who opened up another wasteland in a remote corner, one in the east and one in the west, not next to the field, Qi Ke did not plan to include this scattered plot of land, and the whole field was good for machinery, even if it was a bicycle structure of human pedal, it was also agricultural machinery.
When picking the yard before, Qi Ke confirmed with the two village chiefs that her own 200 acres were not among them, and she still decided what she liked to plant, and she didn't have to tear down the wall to put her farmland out and merge it together.
In the evening, the second housekeeper who stayed in Zhuangzi came into Qianhe Realm with more than enough on his shoulders and a sea fish in his hand, and brought Qi Ke a letter from Jia Ji Boat Company, which was written by Bai Qing, and the letter mainly said that the Ocean had arrived in Liangshui Town, and this time there were ten ships, five boats of cotton and five boats of straw potato flour, Bai Jiajun asked for a part, and the rest was given to Qi Ke, whether to eat them all or resell Bai Qing, anyway, the money is logarithmic.
The so-called logarithm of money is that according to the price negotiated last time, the payment for the goods will be given to the captain, and the tax will be given to the thousand households, and Bai Qing will hand over the money to General Bai again.
Qi Ke carefully looked at the amount that Bai Qing had rowed away in advance, half of the cotton was wanted, and two-thirds of the straw potato flour was asked, and it could be seen that the food was still in short supply, even if the price of food from overseas was not cheap after including tax, but grain was food, and it was easy to understand why General Bai Lao would come up with such an idea, it was all a lack of food.
"Today is only the third day of the Lunar New Year, and we have decided how many goods we want, and the action is very fast." Qi Ke pinched the letter paper in his left hand and flicked it on the paper with his right hand, because the content of this letter was related to property and must be kept in original.
"Liangshui Town is under his rule, there must be a charter that he can be free to be the master, otherwise in the past few days, the news of Liangshui Town has reached Qianhusuo, and the letter from Qianhusuo may have just arrived in Fucheng, and I don't know when Fucheng will reply."
"What cargo does the fleet take with you on the return trip?"
"Tea and sugar."
"Just these two?"
"With the admiration of our four aristocratic patrons, the business of iced milk tea is very good, tea and sugar are in short supply, and our milk tea pearls and taro balls made from straw potato flour are regarded by them as secret recipes that cannot be cracked."
"Wait a few more days, the tea is not easy to say, I hope that sugar can attract a few higher nobles."
"It is possible to attract a larger aristocrat or a big businessman, and we can be sure that there is no sugar crop in their country."
"And where does the sugar they get for the rich people to eat? What other maritime merchants bring? ”
"Perhaps, the housekeeper over there hasn't come into contact with other maritime merchants yet."
"It's okay, there's no hurry, our island is too outer, far from the rich big island, the standard hillbilly, how can the proud city dwellers bow their heads and look at us more? The business has just begun, and now it is developing very well, and we have a small circle, which is steady and steady, and we will first serve the existing customers well and become our loyal customers. ”
"Okay."
"You can cooperate with the minor nobles, our six islands correspond to four minor nobles, who is the landlord of Sugar Island? We use sugar to corrupt him, pull him into our camp to make a community of interests, we give him sugar to open up opportunities for class promotion, and he uses his connections to open up greater sales channels for us to sugar. There are no sugar crops in their country, so it's up to us to fill the gap. ”
"Okay, no problem."
