Chapter 0255 Procurement
After confirming the cooperative relationship with ROHM, Zhou Qingfeng has no intention of continuing to research his own 'low-cost advanced lamps'. He felt that he must have reached a dead end and needed to think differently to solve the problem.
The hourglass on the table showed that the time was still noon. It has been a few days since Zhou Qingfeng arrived at the Banshee Castle, and he has gained a lot, but he has a lot of confusion and his thoughts are very chaotic. He decided to go out for a walk and relax.
Banshee Castle is a 'big city' in the Northlands, although in Zhou Qingfeng's opinion, this place is just a town with more people. But after the painstaking management of the Fils family, the people of the Northland recognized that it was quite prosperous.
As a central city, supplies and talents from all over the world converge on the Banshee Castle. You can buy a variety of common products in the market. Zhou Qingfeng went straight to the market in the city when he went out for a walk, and he ordered a lot of goods in several shops.
For example, an hourglass.
With or without Zhou Qingfeng, the Harmony Village in the Black Forest is completely different. Usually to know the current time, just ask the 'Holy Light'. But as soon as he left, the time was uncertain.
Without precise timing, productivity will drop dramatically and villagers will become lazy. There are many similar problems, and Inisha complains about many inconveniences. In order to meet the development of the village, Zhou Qingfeng's arrival at the Banshee Castle also has the meaning of making a big purchase.
No one in Banshee Castle can make mechanical clocks, but there are shops that bring in hourglasses for timekeeping from the south. Zhou Qingfeng went shopping and saw it, and he wanted to order two hundred in one go. This number startled the store, as there were only about a dozen in stock.
In addition to the hourglass, Zhou Qingfeng also needed a lot of cloth. Harmony Village is too short of cloth, more than food. He himself was a ruler, and he was dressed in tatters. Inisha didn't give him any preferential treatment, and her image was not glorious.
The succubus Maydis was able to meet some of the needs of the Harmony Village, but it only had a few servants in the main material realm, and the goods it could provide were almost bought.
The production capacity of the other world is too limited, and Zhou Qingfeng needs a broader business network for procurement. Even if you spend a little more, you have to buy it.
When the tall young man appeared in the market, a guy from a shop stood at the corner of the street and waved to him, "Mr. Dantès, the goods you want have arrived." We have a new one hundred and twenty cheesecloth, and you will be absolutely satisfied. ”
With the shouting of the guy, the owner also ran out of the store, and when he saw Zhou Qingfeng, he greeted him warmly as if he was seeing the God of Wealth, "Mr. Dantesi, I'm so glad to see you." We have all the goods you want. ”
The cloth shops on the street are inconspicuous, and the signboard at the entrance looks old. Zhou Qingfeng followed the boss in, and more than a dozen large boxes were piled up in the store, all of which were filled with thick cotton cloth transported from other places.
After taking control of the ruins of the 'Silver Leaf City', the wealth in Zhou Qingfeng's pocket began to skyrocket. The gold and gems dug up from the dungeons alone made him a fortune. This time he came to the Banshee Castle and brought a large number of high-quality gems with him.
Through Rohm, Zhou Qingfeng can raise a large amount of money by selling some gems casually. So much so that he made a lot of money in the Banshee Castle, and he did not hesitate to pay a large premium in order to sweep the goods and purchase materials. When the merchants in the city saw him, there was nothing they didn't like.
"Mr. Dantès, the Banshee Castle has now restricted the outflow of food and cloth. In order to meet your needs, we can take great pains. The shopkeeper looked ordinary, but his smile was exactly the same as Rubio's.
"I can raise the price by another 10%, pay the gold in full, and ship it away immediately." Zhou Qingfeng knows what to rely on to settle the trouble-isn't it just a coin scattering, uncle, I am now a coin.
The shopkeeper immediately laughed and patted his chest to promise to continue to give priority to 'Mr. Dantès'. In these years, 'money can make grinding ghosts', and there are no black-hearted businessmen who are not greedy for money.
After a simple inspection, Zhou Qingfeng called Adrian in the information network. Let this 'clown', who is familiar with the market and has many doors, solve the problem of cargo transportation.
The Banshee Fortress has begun to control the procurement of key commercial goods, so transporting these goods must also be a process of 'scattering coins' to open the way.
Zhou Qingfeng dropped the gold coin and left. It wasn't long before Adrian appeared outside the bazaar's shop with a few roe deer creatures. He received the goods according to the instructions given by Zhou Qingfeng, and asked people to load them immediately and transport them away.
There will always be some forces in every city. These low-level people are well-informed and have the same spirit, and in order to make money and survive, they inevitably do some work of licking blood with knives.
When the head snake who was transporting the goods saw more than a dozen boxes of cloth, he immediately smacked his tongue. In these years, there is no 'goods before payment', it must be a full transaction. Being able to buy so much cloth at one time is a great indication of the buyer's economic strength.
A 'land snake' was busy carrying boxes and carts, and asked Adrian carefully, "Joker, are you taking refuge in some powerful person?" So much cloth, at least hundreds of gold coins. ”
Adrian whispered indifferently: "You should know some rules, if you want to make more money, you must protect your customers." Don't ask what you shouldn't know, or death will be near. ”
The 'Earth Snake' shrank in fright, thinking that his rotten life was definitely not worth a hundred gold coins, and he knew that he really shouldn't ask more. He hurriedly beckoned to a few coolie-looking subordinates, "Don't be lazy, move quickly." Mess up this shipment and we're all going to die. ”
Adrian kept a straight face and casually threw a gold coin out, "As long as you work hard, you will definitely be able to make money and live for a long time." ”
When the city fox society rats saw the gold coins, they all smiled happily, and they really sped up and hurriedly loaded more than a dozen boxes of cloth onto the cart.
The shopkeeper and his fellow stood on the side of the street, watching the market vigilantly, and marveling at the nimble of 'Monsieur Dantès' - the 'land snakes' of the city were not good people, and they were cunning and cunning.
Being able to drive such a group of people is enough to show that 'Mr. Dantès' has a strong strength to suppress the situation. The other party is by no means a lone 'fat sheep', maybe a predator lurking in the dark.
The shopkeeper and the guy looked at each other and stopped talking. The 'Land Snake' led his men to push the goods and quickly left the bazaar. They had a relationship with the soldiers guarding the city gates, and they had already contacted to send a shipment of goods out of the city.
A dozen carts passed through the streets at such a fast pace, through the city gates. The soldiers defending the city not only did not stop them, but watched for them, and collected some silver coins afterwards.
This batch of freight arrived at the agreed village and town outside the city, and Luke, who had been waiting here for a long time, had already opened a warehouse and prepared a carriage. When the goods were transferred, there were special armed personnel to escort them back to Harmony Village. The entire transport chain is tight and compact.
Luke followed Zhou Qingfeng very early, but he did not have a good reputation in Harmony Village. Adrian was not very familiar with the ranger, and only vaguely knew that the other party seemed to be doing the dirty work for Lord Hugo.
The two met and chatted casually. Luke asked, "I've been in the Black Forest, and I'm not familiar with the cities of the Northlands. Is the Fils family in Banshee Castle strong? ”
Adrian nodded slightly, "Very strong, a strong opponent." There is no one in the whole of Northland who is its opponent. ”
Luke smiled and sighed, "Rival? Looks like we're busy. ”
