573 Datang's news

Old Peter hurriedly nodded and said, "That's right, I heard that the City Lord plans to expand the Knights after he comes back this time, so I very much hope to be able to cooperate with the City Lord's Mansion." ”

The city lord of Porto said with a smile: "There is no problem in cooperation, I like to cooperate with a capable businessman like you the most." This time, our knights not only have to buy horses, but also weapons. ”

Old Peter was overjoyed when he heard that, and patted his chest and promised: "The city lord should know, my old Peter's goods have never been said, as long as you give me the order, I will definitely satisfy you." ”

The city lord himself spoke, indicating that the deal was about to be completed.

"Besides......" The lord of Porto took back the silk belt from his wife's hand: "I also like the things of the Tang Kingdom very much, I wonder if Peter can help me buy some?" ”

"Tang Guo?" Old Peter was a little puzzled.

"It's the Silk Country we talked about in the past, and recently we got the news that their real name is actually the Tang Dynasty, and it was they who defeated the invincible Arab Empire!"

In the past, they only knew that there was silk in the East, but because of the long distance, they were not so interested in that country in the East.

It's just called Silk Country.

But it was now that the country had beaten the Arab Empire on the southern shore of the Mediterranean to the ground, and they began to notice this behemoth from the East.

Even the expansion of the knights was also to prevent the Tang Dynasty from continuing to advance westward in the future.

The Tang Kingdom? Old Peter secretly thought in his heart that Don said that he came from such a country, and his entourage actually blew his nose with precious silk handkerchiefs, and he always felt that Don was not a simple person.

It seems that Tang may really be a big businessman or a nobleman in the Tang Kingdom, but I don't know why he came here.

I already had a rough guess about Tang Ping's identity in my heart, but old Peter still said:

"City Lord, this silk belt is a gift from the Tang Kingdom, and I got it by accident, but if the City Lord likes the items of the Tang Kingdom, I will definitely find a way to help you find it."

If Tang Ping is from Datang, then he must keep his identity secret, so that he can get a steady stream of Datang goods from him.

As far as he knew, the original Silk Kingdom was now the Tang Kingdom, and their silk and porcelain were all priceless things here.

Wait, porcelain!

Old Peter remembered the tableware used by Tang Ping when he invited him to eat, but he didn't think about it in this regard, who would use the fine porcelain from the Tang Dynasty as tableware? What if I accidentally break it?

And because the cutlery was full of food at the time, he just wondered if it was porcelain, and then automatically ignored it.

Now that I think about it, Tang Ping's entourage carried exquisite silk brocade handkerchiefs with them, so it seems understandable that he used Tang porcelain as ordinary tableware.

"Mr. Peter, what comes to mind?" The city lord of Porto saw that old Peter was in a daze there, and asked.

"Ahh Old Peter hurriedly apologized, and then asked, "Don't you know that the city lord is interested in porcelain?" ”

"Porcelain?? Of course!! The city lord of Porto said with a twinkle in his eyes: "This time I went to the queen's birthday party, I heard that the king will exhibit the two pieces of porcelain he recently obtained, if you can find porcelain, I will definitely pay a lot of money to buy it!" ”

"Okay, Lord Castle, I'll do my best!" Old Peter began to think in his heart, since Tang Ping and the others didn't take those fine porcelains seriously, it shouldn't be too expensive to buy them from him, right?

As soon as this thing changes hands, you can make a lot of money from the city lord, not to mention that if you have a good relationship with the city lord of Porto, you will be able to expand your business territory here in the future.

At this time, the lord of the city looked out the window and said, "In that case, when I return from the king, I hope to hear good news from you." I'm about to get out of town, Mr. Peter, please get out of the car! Old Peter nodded and got out of the carriage, and waited for the city lord's convoy to leave before he waved his fist at the sky.

Although these nobles are domineering, not all of them are as clever as William.

And in fact, William usually does business with businessmen is still a rule, and the reason why he chased and killed Tang Ping at that time was because the benefits of the winemaking formula were too great, and he wanted to occupy it exclusively.

If all the merchants are usually taken advantage of, then naturally no businessmen dare to do business in their territory, and after a long time, the outside things can't come in, and the things in their own territory can't be sold, isn't it unpleasant to find themselves?

Therefore, for merchants, although the nobles are high, at least the transaction between the two sides is relatively fair.

"Master, are you going back?" The attendant, who had been following behind, asked.

"Go back?? What are you going to do back? Old Peter glared: "Go, go to the market and buy some delicious food, and let's send it to the island of Weetan Houp." ”

guessed that Tang Ping's might be from the Tang Dynasty, and his identity might not be simple, so Old Peter naturally had to take a good stutter.

Datang's luxury goods are hard currency, and if he can use Tang Ping to make friends with the city lord of Porto, then naturally he can also make friends with the city lords of other towns!

Old Peter felt that the gears of his fate were about to be played by Tang Ping!

This time, old Peter also made a lot of money, in addition to buying a lot of black bread, but also bought a sheep and a pig.

He loaded his men into the ship and went to the island of Trans Anhoup.

Before the ship could get close to the island, they were met by Alaric's sailing ship, and seeing that it was old Peter, Alaric took them back.

If it was William's man, Alaric would have signaled to shake people.

"Old Peter, why are you here again?" Tang Ping didn't expect that Old Peter, who had left only in the morning, would come back in the afternoon.

"Did I use your silk belt?"

"This!!" Old Peter gave Tang Ping a thumbs up: "So I'm not here to thank you?" ”

Waving his hand, he told his men to give the black bread to the inhabitants of the island, and he pointed to the sheep he had brought and said, "This black goat tastes good, but I always think you make it better!" ”

This is not a sycophant, he ate twice at Tang Ping's bar, and he felt that the food they cooked was completely different from what they usually ate.

Or rather, it's not a grade at all.

Tang Ping squinted his eyes and looked at Old Peter, there must be some reason for his courtesy.

However, he didn't say anything, and said to Lao Cui: "Lao Cui, take care of the sheep, let's have a sheep and three meals today!" ”
