Chapter 546: Trial Plane (8)

Augustus II was a little surprised by Betterge's choice, but still didn't say anything. The Middle Ages have ended, the relationship between master and apprentice is strict but no longer cruel, Bettge is equivalent to exchanging 5 years of labor for Chinese technology, which in his opinion has no effect on himself.

There was even some joy. It seems that the Chinese without braids really do what porcelain looks like.

However, when Huang Xuan came to him with an ugly plate, Augustus II couldn't laugh anymore.

As soon as Huang Xuan opened his mouth, it was 3000 thalers.

To be honest, Augustus didn't think that 3,000 thalers was a lot, and more than 100 thalers were just a year's salary, but Huang Xuan didn't say that he used 3,000 thalers to exchange porcelain technology.

Frederick felt that he should settle the matter, so he said to Huang, "I'll give you 5,000 thalers, and you have to make porcelain like this." ”

He was referring to the Kangxi Dynasty porcelain placed on the table.

Huang Xuanhe smiled and said: "3000 thalers is the price of making such porcelain, as for yours, let's talk about it later." ”

Naturally, he was referring to the beige and white porcelain in his hand.

Chu Yining asked while translating for Huang Xuan: "Don't 'force' him to be in a hurry." ”

Huang Xuan said with a smile: "The price of two or three hundred tons of grain, it's fine." ”

Chu Yining immediately understood the essence of this number, travelers are like this, they have to convert the purchasing power of different currencies every day, and it is very troublesome if there is not enough reference.

Augustus knew that Huang Xuan was a person who could speak, so he desperately described his poverty to him, and the spittle stars were about to fly in Huang Xuan's face.

Xiao Huang felt bored after talking for a while, so he handed over the work to Chu Yining, who was skilled in business, and quickly persuaded Mr. Qiang Wang with the value of time, the value of technology, and the degree of confidentiality.

The weight of 3,000 thalers was two men.

……

"Build the road first, if you want to be rich, build the road first." Huang Xuan walked out of the palace and stretched his waist to Chu Yining.

Miss Chu frowned and said, "Why have you been ordering me to do things?" ”

"Didn't you lose?" Huang Xuan pretended not to understand.

Chu Yi's face turned red, and he was about to leave in big strides, but when he saw Huang Xuan following behind him, he said angrily: "What are you doing with me." ”

Huang Xuan said with a look of grievance: "You are not in front of me, in case someone kidnaps me, or accidentally pokes me to death, who will I go to." ”

Chu Yining was speechless, and finally knew that he was still working as a bodyguard.

In this unfamiliar plane, she lost her usual calmness, partly because of Huang Xuan, partly because of many other things - no matter who it is, she will subconsciously think that she is the most important, as a level 3 traveler, no matter whether Huang Xuan has a "palm plane", no matter whether he has advanced training materials, Chu Yining is unwilling to accompany him to stay in a strange and boring plane.

It's just that at present, it seems that without Huang Xuan, her stay will be too long, and who knows what is in the remaining two plane gates.

Out of team spirit, Chu Yining just glared at Huang Xuan and walked towards the street, letting Huang Xuan follow.

They couldn't go through Augustus II to build roads, which would have been more troublesome.

Dresden's busiest street is near the Royal Palace, the busiest German city outside of Berlin and the only place in Saxony where you can get your hands on it, with countless shops and guilds opening.

Although the Hanseatic League had ended, its will and traditions had been more or less preserved, and the merchants on the streets were inclined to establish a more perfect and greater model of union.

Without going through the energy screen, Huang Xuan quickly found the hiring place here, Chu Yining was wearing the clothes sent by Augustus II, and was shocked by countless men and women along the way.

"What's your name?" Chu Yining was the first to ask.

"Schweinh, Schweinhoff."

"Well, Schwein, we want to build a road to Penzaburg, and we want to build a lumberyard, how much do you want?"

"It's a lot of trouble to build a road." Shi Weiyin bowed, he was not as tall as Chu Yi, but he had a bulging beer belly, which was pressed against the table so that he could not get close.

Huang Xuan knew what Chu Yining was talking about, but he didn't want to listen to the details inside, he didn't care, he took this opportunity, but he was thinking alone.

Chu Yining's relationship with herself, how will she deal with the problem. Why would the damn P001 plane put both of them in - Huang Xuan's eyes were full of mysteries.

In about 10 minutes or so, Chu Yining and Shi Weiyin determined the road to be built, and then said to Huang Xuan: "It may take one month for them to repair the road near the aperture we found, and if it is widened, it will take three months or even half a year." ”

According to the 9:1 time exchange, although Huang Xuan is not very willing to stay here for a few standard months, but compared to P112, even 3 months is only 10 days, so he just nodded lightly and did not speak.

Chu Yining instead asked, "How much money can you get for your porcelain?" We're going to build about four kilometers of roads, about 400 thalers per kilometer. ”

"I'm not sure if I can make such good white porcelain, if I can, there should be more money, if not, I'm afraid I can get 5,000 thalers from Frederick at most. He just has so much oil and water. ”

In porcelain, Augustus II is not a stingy person, but he is definitely a strict guy, Huang Xuan is difficult to determine whether he can burn the porcelain that Europeans like, even if there are multiple alchemists, it is estimated that there will not be much improvement. Historically, it took more than twenty years for Betger to perfect the production of porcelain, and he could not afford to wait.

For Chu Yining's words, Huang Xuan was mixed with water, and seeing that he seemed to be away from danger, his vigilance was greater, or rather, Huang Xuan thought at this time that his value to Chu Yining had dropped to the freezing point.

In the best time, it is also the worst time, Huang Xuan has seen such things more than once. Just like Huang Jindi, when he was in the worst health, no one in the Huang family would say anything about the position of the patriarch, but when he got better, all the attacks came one after another, and in the end he could only step down.

Chu Yining handed Schwein 50 thalers as a deposit, 50 thalers are equivalent to about 1,000 yuan, but considering that the monthly salary of each worker during this period is only about 10 thalers, the deposit of 50 thalers has made Schwein promise to quickly find enough hired workers to survey the terrain.

"The rest go find us there." Chu Yining pointed to the towering palace with his finger, and scared Shi Weiyin into not daring to speak, but he had no doubts, he thought that Chu Yining was another mistress of Augustus II.

Walking out of the firm, Chu Yining smiled and asked Huang Xuandao, "Where are you going now?" ”

Her attitude was quite good, but Huang Xuan completely dispelled the idea of a hare.

He lowered his head and looked at Chu Yining's feet, and said for a long time: "Let's have a mirror here." ”

"Mirrors?"

"Yes, I think there might be more benefits from making mirrors."

Chu Yining laughed and said, "Is the glass mirror right?" There are already mirrors in this era, and I used them yesterday, and you were wrong this time. ”

About 200 years ago in the 18th century, the Empress of France bought a mirror for 120,000 gold francs, which should be the most expensive mirror in the history of the world, truly unprecedented. But in the 18th century, especially since the successful poaching of the French 40 years ago, the price of mirrors has fallen, and about 1,000 thalers can buy a mirror, but it is still quite high.

Huang Xuan felt that it was safer to be as valuable as possible, if he was lucky, he might be able to get the management of P001 before Chu Yining made a fortune at some point, and then about, maybe, maybe it would be safe. As for the rest of the mysteries, he thought it would be better to leave them alone.

With such considerations, Huang Xuan said in time before Chu Yining laughed: "The cost of making mirrors is much lower than that of people in this era, and the Germans don't know how to make mirrors." ”

It is true that the Germans did not know how to make glass mirrors, and the French took great pains to get a few Venetian craftsmen from a heavily guarded island like a federal prison, how could they share the most advanced industrial secrets of the time with the world? Louis XIV was not a good man to get along with.

Chu Yining said suspiciously: "How much is the mirror here worth?" ”

The jade onion fingers supported the base of her ears and chin respectively, and the shape made the pedestrians on the street freeze there.

Huang Xuan lowered his head and didn't dare to look at Chu Yining, thinking, "It should be around 500 to 2000 talers." He deliberately said that the interval was very large to win the trust.

"500 thalers, worth about 5 tons of grain?"

"Pretty much." Huang Xuan shrugged and said: "The serfs in this era are not enough to eat every day, if we want to hire workers, buy 1 ton of grain, ensure that everyone can eat two dry meals a day, and ensure that countless people will come, that is, through the Chamber of Commerce and the landlords, hire people for a day, and definitely not need 2 thalers."

"And what about your cost?" Chu Yining was really interested in Huang Xuan's suggestion, but at this time she became serious, without the coquettishness just now.

Huang Xuan shrugged and said, "Do you know the silver mirror reaction? ”
