Chapter 39 Development (4)
Merchants are not stupid, they don't look down on these cows and sheep's skins, even if these things are a lot of income, but compared to the business opportunities represented behind these things, this is just a small amount of money.
To be able to get so many cows and sheep skins and furs at one time, if he had the support of the tribes on the endless grassland behind him, he would not believe it if he killed their group.
These merchants are not only from Fuling Kingdom, but also from many, many other places who have come here.
The reason why I came to Fuling to do business is because there will be some grassland materials from time to time, those cattle and sheep, horses and various specialties, and even slaves.
These are the things that all caravans dream of, but every year there are not many things that flow out of the steppe, if not very little.
Therefore, it is simply not enough for so many caravans to divide up.
Now, a strange caravan suddenly appeared, and there were so many steppe goods in hand, this kind of excellent and potential caravan, what an important thing.
However, this businessman moved quickly, and the others were not slow at all.
Just as the caravan steward finished speaking, another merchant dressed more luxuriously than him stepped forward.
"Shut up, you fellow!" said the pot-bellied merchant with disdain, "is it just that you deserve to talk to such an honorable guest!"
After the merchant sneered, his face turned into a smiling face, and he looked at the old man with a chuckling face, Li Ru.
"Don't listen to him, old gentleman, he just wants this trade route from you, this is an insatiable fellow, it's not worth your time here, listen to him talk nonsense.
If you believe in Pan, from today onwards, this trade route villain is willing to follow, the villain's character and ability, the Situ City Lord next to you is very clear.
You will never have thoughts that you shouldn't have, and you will never do things that you shouldn't do, you think that's okay?"
Looking at the smiling businessmen, as well as the people around him who had a light in their eyes, Situ Hao's heart was also turbulent.
Situ Hao is no longer the same as he was a year ago at this time, as the so-called doing a good job, although Situ Hao at this time is not a famous businessman in the world, he has not formed any caravans.
But at this time, he is not the guy who didn't know anything about the word "business" back then.
At this time, in this regard, he can be regarded as a half-knowledgeable expert, and these dozen or so carts of sheepskin and cowhide are not something that ordinary people can get.
Although he is now under the command of the Offering Prince, he has been continuing to develop his Flame City during this time, as well as expanding his power and improving his strength.
Where can I have time to care about what Han Long has done on the side.
To be honest, he really cared about Han Long who gave him this chance to rise, but he didn't really care about Han Long, but he felt in his heart that maybe the death of the prince might not be a good thing for him.
If Han Long died on the frontier, he would not have to bear the charge of betraying the master, nor would he have to continue to be terrified under Han Long's command.
With his current ability and power, any prince is willing to throw an olive branch for him, and he is not unwilling to change to a more reliable and secure master.
It's just that he really doesn't want to bear the reputation of a betrayal on himself.
If Han Long heard about this, he would definitely say something to him, "I want to be that, and I want to be that!"
But at this time, I just wanted to help Li Ru for the sake of incense, but I was completely frightened by Li Ru's action, and these goods.
What those businessmen can see, he can naturally see.
Unexpectedly, in less than a year, the prince not only gained a foothold in the frontier, but also directly opened up the tribes on the grassland.
This really made Situ Hao a little impressed with them.
When Han Long and the others left, they only took away three hundred soldiers who had just recovered from their injuries, a personal attendant Zheng Zhong who followed Han Long, a pair of Huo family brothers, and an old guy Li Ru.
There are three or two big cats and kittens, not only living in peace and stability in the frontier for a year, but also seem to be standing steadily, and the most important thing is that they have opened up the trade routes on the grassland.
"Everyone!" At this time, Li Ru also spoke again, "Since you care so much about the things here, then the little old man is not too hypocritical, we are just an ordinary caravan, these are all tribes that we have seen destroyed by luck on the grassland."
What I found in the remains of their tribe may disappoint you, but I don't have the opportunity you said after me, and I hope you don't think about it anymore. ”
Li Ru's smile on his face made everyone unable to distinguish the true from the fake, but looking at the cow and sheep fur behind Li Ru, he slowly fell into hesitation.
It's not that these things aren't worth selling, it's that they're struggling with what price they should give to be reasonable.
If Li Ru has a caravan and trade route behind him that can open up the alien races of the grassland, then this batch of goods is worth more than 10,000 gold.
But if it were just these things, then the market value of these things would only be less than eighty taels of gold.
It is to replace it with supplies, which is probably the basic daily necessities that can just fill these carts, and I am afraid that it will be difficult to have more.
Just when everyone was entangled, Li Ru laughed softly, "It's not early now, today a certain family lives in an inn in the east city, if you need it, you can come to the old man!"
After finishing speaking, Li Ru beckoned the people to pack these things again, and then left with these things.
As for Situ Hao, after inviting Li Ru hard, he still didn't pull him to the banquet, so he didn't say more.
At this time, Situ Hao is no longer the original Situ Hao, he is not what he used to be in terms of strength and power, he is indeed polite to Han Long, but he is not flattering.
And compared to others, Situ Hao believed what Li Ru said more, they were just lucky.
As far as Han Long and his group are concerned, this explanation is also more acceptable to Situ Hao, after all, if he really has the ability to make a name for himself in the Endless Grass Sect in less than a year, that Xian Wang Ye will not be imprisoned for so many years.
After seeing the two groups of people parting ways, the merchants who had been watching here dispersed, and some of them knew that they could indeed buy it with their own strength, but they couldn't grab it, so they didn't think about it anymore.
In addition, there are some people who follow behind Li Ru, they are the real buyers, and they have the ability and strength.
It was true that Li Ru did not go to the City Lord's Mansion for a banquet that night, but he still ate very well.
The seven merchants chartered the inn where Li Ru lived, and then specially invited the best cooks in Flame City to cook a big feast for him.
At the banquet, seven businessmen and Li Ru exchanged glasses here, and they drank very lively.
Li Ru, the little old man, also did not refuse to come, and was not polite at all, and soon became drunk.
"The old man told you, do you know how lucky we are!" Li Ru burped, "As soon as we arrived at the frontier, we encountered two big tribes clashing, and as a result, one of them wiped out the other.
You don't know how miserable the exterminated tribe is, there is not a single living mouth up and down, it is miserable, the cattle, sheep and horses have been taken away, I will wait until they leave, and then I will go to the destroyed Broly to have a look.
I didn't have much hope, but who knew that we had dug up so many cow and sheep skins from the ground, and you said, is this a windfall?"
Li Ru seemed to be completely drunk, and the whole person began to get drunk, and he began to speak with a big tongue.
But it was like this, but the seven merchants began to look at each other.
Then a businessman asked with a chuckle.
"Then this old gentleman, I don't know this batch of windfalls, what price are you going to sell?"
This is the purpose of these people, and now they have eighty percent of Li Ru's words, this is a guy with special luck.
Although they were disappointed that there were no foreign trade routes, they could also make a lot of money by having such a good fur in their pockets.
The only thing that needs to be determined now is what this old man or what does this old man have to do with the city lord of Flame City!
After all, Situ Hao personally went outside the city to greet him, but this incident happened under their noses, and they still need to be careful about this kind of thing.
Li Ru seemed to have drunk too much at this time, his head kept nodding, and then he muttered.
"The old man has not gone through business, how can the old man know, this is not thinking of relying on a little friendship with the Situ City Lord, and sell this batch of furs at a good price!"
Hearing this, several businessmen nodded to each other and smiled at each other.
"Old man, you've drunk too much, let's go back to your room and rest first!" a merchant chuckled, and then asked Li Ru's attendants to take him back, followed by them all slowly leaving.
Until they left the inn, the merchants did not speak to each other again, and each left with his own men.
They want to leave, not because they gave up on this deal, but because they feel that this deal can't be rushed, at least not so much.
It has to be delayed, an old man with little experience, they can reduce the price a lot with a little means.
Then divide a part of the saved money and send it to the city lord's mansion, which is also a way!
It's just that they didn't see it, and when they walked in, a young man dressed plainly nibbling on cold dry food slowly stood up.
