Chapter 920: Lobbying (Part II)
Tang Lin held his chin and nodded desperately.
That's what it means!
The magnates looked at each other, but they didn't understand the meaning of this sentence very well.
"What are the benefits of the establishment of the business road for us?"
A powerful man sneered: "The things in my city can be said to be the best in the world, gold is everywhere, what things can you countries in the Western Regions exchange with our Wusha country?" ”
Tang Lin raised his eyebrows, and couldn't help but think of the words "Yelang is arrogant".
The magnates of the Wusha country enjoyed the luxury of the wine pond and meat forest, and they had no idea how bleak the scene outside was.
"Do you have silk?"
An Yan was not very angry, but asked lightly: "Or do you have the technology to make silk?" ”
As he spoke, An Yan took out a piece of paper: "Let's not talk about silk, even if it's such a piece of paper, you haven't mastered the core technology, right?" The paper is bought from Dahan at a high price, right? ”
The magnates were a little speechless for a while.
Needless to say, silk itself is expensive, but paper, they tried several times, but never made good paper, so they all bought it from Dahan.
Due to various reasons such as transportation costs, the price of paper is very expensive, so now it is only circulated among the powerful, and most of the ordinary people cannot read all the ligatures.
Looking at the expressions of the magnates, An Yan and Tang Lin knew it in their hearts.
"In Dahan, it can't be said that it is not worth anything, but it is not a precious thing to you, but it has become something more valuable than gold, it is nothing more than the high cost of transportation, and the merchants who come and go have to bear a major risk, so the price of your paper is higher than gold."
An Yan said slowly: "If the Silk Road is established, it means that we have established an extremely safe passage, which saves a lot of costs on the way, and naturally the price will be low." ”
The magnates looked at each other and had to admit that what An Yan said was very reasonable.
Paper is very expensive in the Uza country, and even if it is circulated among the elites, it is rarely used. Like Tang Lin is in the palace, so the use of paper is not restricted, but she also learned later that the price of this piece of paper can buy a lot of paper in Dahan.
"So...... As you said, the price of silk will also drop to a certain extent? ”
The powerful asked.
"Silk itself is expensive, but now for you, it is nothing more than not wearing it, or paying a high price for silk. But you must also know that silk technology is in the hands of the Dahan people, and if such a safe passage can be established, and the merchants from Dahan have a safe guarantee, which makes it more convenient for them to travel on the road, then I think they must be happy to lower the price. ”
Hearing An Yan's words, some powerful people sneered: "You are from Su Ming Kingdom, and you are not a merchant from Dahan, can you say this on behalf of the merchant of Dahan?" ”
Shayti raised his eyebrows and looked at An Yan, and when he looked at Tang Lin, he couldn't help grinning.
This An Yan is really a good calculation!
"I can't represent, but there are businessmen from Dahan who can represent." Saying that, An Yan looked at Tang Lin and smiled: "Miss Tang, I don't know if Dahan is willing to lower some of the prices on the basis of establishing a business path?" ”
Tang Lin smiled and nodded.
