Chapter 118: In the eyes of a shrewd person, there are business opportunities everywhere.

In addition to this scarce number of domestic wild boars, the Three Rivers are also rich in soybeans. www.biquge.info The last time he was in Okazaki Town, the kind of cotton tofu that Tadaji Sakai invited him to eat was one of the specialties.

However, the delicacy of tofu is that it is fresh and tender, and it must be freshly ground to be delicious, so it is not suitable for long-distance transportation. So Gao Xianda didn't know what other specialties Okazaki had here, and he was ready to let Sukezaemon leave empty-handed with the money he earned.

But Sukezaemon was much more business-minded than Kosenda, and he knew how to look for business opportunities. He didn't believe that there were no special products in such a prosperous Okazaki Town.

After wandering around the market, chatting with the vendors and chatting with the common people, he soon gained an important piece of information.

So Sukezaemon ordered everything he could order at the restaurant where there were "good things" to eat. Anyway, it's spending his money, and everyone doesn't waste it.

"It's different!" Sukezaemon sighed as he ate.

Gao Xianda hurriedly asked, "What's wrong?" ”

Sukezaemon said with joy on his face: "I didn't believe what those people said, but now it seems that it is true!" ”

When he said this, Gao Xianda was even more confused, and hurriedly continued to ask. Only then did Saemon explain the reason.

In a place as big as Mikawa and so prosperous in Okazaki, it is naturally impossible not to have anything good. Because soybeans are abundant here in Mikawa, the miso here actually tastes particularly good. In particular, Hatcho miso produced in Okazaki is very famous. It is a special product of Okazaki-cho.

However, the value of miso itself is not high, and as the most basic daily necessities of the Japanese people, it is about the same status as soy sauce for the Chinese people. Therefore, even if it is shipped to other borders, it cannot be sold at a high price. It's okay to say if it's transported in bulk, but if it's less transported, don't want to make money at all.

It's like the people who sell soy sauce nowadays, they all sell it on wagons and tons, and they don't say that they only sell two bottles of soy sauce after a long trip.

This time, Sukezaemon traveled on a small scale, not with a large convoy. He was limited in the amount of miso he could transport, and he had to consider the potential spoilage of miso, so he would rather leave empty-handed than buy miso here and sell it in Owari.

However, according to Sukezaemon's research, the locals think that they have a lot of souvenirs, but at the end of the conversation, they are very proud of the pottery bowls in their hometown. They even believe that a big part of the reason why what they eat is so delicious is because they use clay bowls from their hometown.

Gao Xianda was a little puzzled, what is so strange about a bowl? Although the bowl that Tadaji Sakai used to serve his soup at the beginning was really not hot, it should have been just an ordinary pottery bowl!

So Gao Xianda took a bowl from the store and looked at it carefully: it was indeed just an ordinary pottery bowl......

"What's so special about this?" "It looks the same to me." ”

Sukezaemon shook his head and said, "My lord, you are used to sitting in a high position, and you use good porcelain in the city, so when you see this kind of pottery bowl used by the common people, you can't see the difference at all." However, the pottery bowls used by Mikawa are actually much more delicate than those used in the Suruga area. ”

As soon as Sukezaemon said this, Takakenda Shige observed it again, and it seemed that this was indeed the case, and this pottery bowl already had a faint porcelain feeling, which was indeed better than the one he used in the small brewery in Sunfu Town.

"What's this, no matter how delicate it is, it's just a pottery bowl, and it's not worth anything." Gao Xianda Road.

"No, the pottery bowl is not the point." "The important thing is that the delicacy of this pottery bowl is not because of the craftsmanship, but because the soil here is very good, and it is suitable for making ceramics. These pottery bowls are only burned by ordinary craftsmen to make for the common people, and naturally they are not very expensive. But if there is a craftsman who specializes in making porcelain......"

Gao Xianda understood as soon as he heard it: "Then it will be very good to make the quality of porcelain to a higher level!" ”

This is a huge business opportunity! If Sukezaemon can hire high-level porcelain craftsmen to make branded porcelain for Naya, then the profit margin will be huge!

Sukezaemon did a little research in Okazaki Town and confirmed that there were no well-known craftsmen here. He also took a look at the porcelain sold in the market, and the existing porcelain makers made fine porcelain because of the good quality of the soil. They are not at all able to match the craftsmen of Kyoto in terms of artistic attainments. This also has to do with the fact that the people of Mikawa are fierce and focus more on combat than art. If Junfu can have such a delicate clay, with the artistic atmosphere of Junfu, I am afraid that the porcelain of Junfu would have been famous all over the world.

This is a huge business opportunity.

So instead of buying fragile porcelain in large quantities, Sukezaemon bought a batch of simple pottery bowls made of clay in the market. He wanted to use these bowls to convince the well-known craftsmen. The purpose of these bowls is simply to prove that the clay here is of very good quality and that there is no need to buy too expensive products.

Overall, Sukezaemon's trip was a success.

He made a lot of money by selling whales and tuna products from Junfu to Yuanjiang, and selling fresh vegetables from Yuanjiang to Mikawa.

Now I am walking back and forth in the major porcelain shops in Sanhe and buying a lot of things.

Although he actually just bought some ordinary pottery bowls, others didn't see it that way. People outside think that Sukezaemon has bought a large amount of porcelain and is going to sell it at the next location.

At that time, porcelain, in the eyes of the common people, was undoubtedly a very extravagant luxury. If Sukezaemon was just a vegetable seller, people might not think that he would be rich, but if he was a porcelain seller, everyone would think that he was very rich, so some people targeted them.

Plus Gao Xianda and they are all riding horses, which is equivalent to driving four supercars, which is very ostentatious.

So in the eyes of ordinary people, they are four local tyrants who drive supercars and go to luxury stores to buy a lot of LV, Gucci, and Armani. And there are only four people in this group of local tyrants, and they are not guarded at all, as if they are not defended.

When these local tyrants arrived in the wilderness, people with ulterior motives began to act.

"Stop, you guys, hand over what you've got in your hands." A group of shabby-dressed men with low-quality short knives and bamboo guns in their hands came out of the forest and surrounded the four of them.

It seems that Japanese bandits do not have the tradition of reporting "I opened this mountain".

Gao Xianda looked back at Gongoro and Maeda Toshiya, smiled, and showed a mouthful of white teeth.
