Chapter 111: Export trade is necessary for overcapacity!

Sure enough, in addition to the shops and seafood shops for daily necessities, Nawu also built a new wine shop. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

Not far from the small liquor shop where they gambled, the restaurant was run in a similar way, selling alcohol with food and encouraging customers to gamble for profit.

However, the main cuisine here is no longer a variety of pickles, but a variety of seafood dishes, especially large tuna steaks. The decoration here is more advanced, and the wine is also crafty, so in this Nawu wine shop, the fee is naturally higher.

Of course, this stopped some people, but for the samurai and merchants with relatively high incomes, they preferred to enjoy this place with a more elegant environment and more delicious food.

Gao Xianda entered the drinking field with Sukezaemon, and Sukezaemon hurriedly recruited people to get busy.

"Your Excellency is here, why don't you hurry up and take out all the good things!" When Sukezaemon faced these apprentices and fans, his attitude was naturally no longer as deferential as when he faced Gao Xianda, but seemed to have become a powerful tiger, and he made these subordinates stunned.

Soon, the wine jar and cutlery were served, and some side dishes were brought to the table. Gao Xianda tasted it, the knife work is exquisite, and the seasoning skills are really good.

Sukezaemon said, "My lord, how is it?" The craftsmanship is okay, right? ”

Gao Xianda nodded in praise. Sukezaemon saw Gao Xianda's approval, and his face smiled like a flower.

Not long after, the hot dishes were also served one after another.

To say that Sukezaemon is really a genius in business, he has made this wine shop decent, and he already has the feeling of a restaurant. All kinds of new dishes made with fish taste good, and many of them have never been seen by Coxenda.

For example, the meat of fish is pounded into puree, boiled meatballs; Thinly slice the fish and roll it with shredded radish and greens; A platter made by picking out the eyes of the fish. After all, you can make the best use of it.

Of course, the tuna steak that Gosenda is best at cooking is a must.

Gao Xianda naturally eats and devours. Not to mention, in the two months since he left, he really missed this taste.

After three rounds of wine and five flavors of food, the two of them can start chatting about business.

Gao Xianda briefly told Sukezaemon about the experience of fighting the Oda family, and when he heard it, little stars appeared in Sukezaemon's eyes, and he admired Gao Xianda very much.

Sukezaemon reported on his recent work.

After all, Nawu is a merchant from other places, and the sales of daily necessities are still not as good as local merchants. But thanks to the fisherman's blessing, he found a salvage mecca, and every time he went out to sea, he caught a lot of fish, except for the regular small fish and shrimp, and each boat could catch at least one large tuna.

These fleets were employed by Naya, so all the catch was sold to Naya at a flat price. Sukezaemon certainly took advantage of this monopoly to crack down on competitors and recruit more fishermen to join him.

So he opened a new seafood restaurant and wine restaurant, and for a while, he also made a lot of money.

But now he has a new problem, that is, there are still a few people who can afford to eat big fish. Imagawa Yoshimoto organized the people to take Luo, and most of the samurai in Sunfu Castle had been evacuated, leaving only the family members and children at home. The amount of meat that these people eat per day is fixed.

Among the civilians, there are not many people who can afford to eat big fish, and there are not many people who are willing to accept it. Even though Sukezaemon sells the minced meat of large fish at a lower price than rice, not many civilians are willing to buy it. So the fish caught by these fishermen gradually became a little overcapacity.

Therefore, although Sukezaemon has already ordered people to make salted fish or bonito from surplus tuna, there must be a market for the finished product. If this backlog continues, I'm afraid that Naya will not have the money to pay the fishermen's fishing fees.

And if Nawu can't afford to buy the fisherman's fish, then the fisherman can only sell it to other merchants, and Nawu, who has lost its monopoly advantage, may suffer huge losses.

Therefore, although Sukezaemon fought hard in the business sea and did not worry about his life, the pressure he faced was no less than that faced by the samurai.

Speaking of this, Gao Xianda remembered something.

Pigs are raised there in Sanhe, and there is still a tradition of eating meat. The meat of tuna is red meat, and although it tastes like pork, the people of Mikawa should be more acceptable than the people of Suruga.

Although the Yuanjiang side is rich in products, producing rice and various vegetables, their methods of supplementing protein are also very limited, and these big fish should also have a certain market.

Gao Xianda said, "Why don't you sell these fish products as Suruga's specialties and sell them to other places?" At the very least, the people of Yuanjiang and Mikawa should be able to accept it, right? ”

Sukezaemon said, "My lord, you are speaking lightly, not to mention that the castle towns of the big cities such as Hikima Castle in Enoe and Okazaki Castle in Mikawa are all dependent on the sea, and they themselves can be self-sufficient in catching seafood. The transportation aspect alone is problematic. ”

As he spoke, Sukezaemon pointed to a group of sword-wielding ronins gathered in the restaurant opposite.

"These are ronins who don't have a master's house, looking for work there. They are hired as bodyguards, but when no one is hired, they can turn into robbers at any time. The world is not peaceful, and sometimes even honest peasants can become robbers at any time if they can't eat. "If we want to trade long-distance, we need to organize our own people to escort the goods. It is better to say that large local merchants like businessman Tsukatomo Noya have entanglements with major forces, and it is not easy for a merchant branch like us to maintain a transportation fleet of daily necessities, so how can there be extra manpower to open a second transportation team? ”

"You don't come to this set!" Gao Xianda said with a smile, "You keep saying that you want to be loyal to me, isn't it still to have something to do with me, the biggest force!" You are there to pretend to be pitiful to me, just to make me promise to protect you. ”

Sukezaemon laughed. Of course, he was not as miserable as he said himself, but in those days, there were no trains, and there were no planes, and it was really difficult to transport something for long-distance trade.

Gao Xianda said: "But what you said also makes some sense. If law and order are not good, the economy will not be able to develop; If the economy does not develop, let alone fight, even if you want to eat something delicious, you will not have a chance. This is indeed the responsibility of our samurai. Don't worry, I'll send someone to solve it. ”
