579 debunked old Peter
"Twenty gold coins?" Fabianlo's face was full of smiles: "But can you tell us about the origin of this bowl?" ”
The price is not too high, but he thinks it is very low.
Think about William's ruby ring, which can be sold for 3,000 silver coins, that is, 30 gold coins, but such a fine porcelain only costs 20 gold coins, and he sends it to the national capital, I am afraid that many nobles will rush to buy it.
"This is porcelain from the Jun kiln of the Tang Dynasty, and it is also a fine product that is only supplied to the royal family."
This was not what Tang Ping told him, but the news he bought with a lot of money from some knowledgeable Persian merchants.
Of course, this heavy amount of money is nothing compared to twenty gold coins.
"Deal!" Fabianlo is in a good mood today, and in the future, he can get Datang's luxury goods for sale through the channels of Old Peter, so his status in the country will naturally rise.
Asking someone to accept the porcelain bowl from the kiln, Fabialo said to old Peter: "In the future, Mr. Peter will be free to enter and leave my castle, and if you have such a good thing, you can come to me directly!" ”
"Definitely!" Old Peter left the castle with a smile, and then immediately called the servant: "Buy me the best food in the city, and we will go to the island of Weetanhoup at once!" ”
To be honest, although Porto can make a lot of money by expanding the Knights, if it is compared with the sale of this Datang luxury, it is a hard-earned money.
So old Peter, who got into the money eye, didn't want to delay for a minute, and asked someone to buy things and went to Waitanhoup Island.
"Yo, old Peter, what is the wind that has blown you here this day?" Seeing Old Peter carrying a bag of food on his own and panting on the island, Tang Ping asked with a smile.
"Dear Don, I'm so glad to see you again!" Old Peter put down the food in his hand and gave Tang Ping a hug.
"Thank you for the lamb bone soup you gave my mother last time, she told me to bring it." Old Peter pointed to the food brought by the servants at his feet and behind him.
"So you're here to eat again?" Tang Ping looked up at the sky: "It's really time for dinner." ”
"Hahaha, Don, with our friendship, you won't be stingy and won't invite me to eat a meal, right? I brought you this food, but I almost died of exhaustion. Old Peter said with a look of pity.
"Eat, no problem!" Tang Ping shouted: "Old Cui, let's see what delicious food you can cook for our old Peter today." ”
After speaking, he looked at old Peter with a smile: "But old Peter, last time you brought my mutton soup home, by the way, you also took my Junyao red glazed bowl, why didn't you bring it back today?" It can't be the lord of the city who has already sold to Porto, right? ”
"What Jun kiln red glaze bowl??" Old Peter is still pretending to be stupid: "Did you say it was the red bowl I used to serve soup last time??" Could it be that bowl is also expensive? Oops, I didn't pay attention when I left it at home, as if I didn't know who took it. ”
Tang Ping saw that he was pretending to be stupid and didn't demolish him, and said directly: "Okay, since I don't know who took it, forget it." ”
So saying, he took old Peter to the island: "Thanks to these craftsmen you have found, our house is almost finished." ”
"But we also want to build some fortifications on the docks, and I think old Peter you must be willing to help us, right?"
"Of course!" Old Peter replied in one bite: "Don, you are my best friend, your business is my business, I will not refuse to help you!" ”
The two of them were giggling and chatting, and Old Peter was always knocking on the side to Tang Ping if there was anything good here, and Tang Ping seemed to be unaware of it, and he would say whatever he wanted. Finally, when Lao Cui and the others finished the meal, Tang Ping invited Old Peter to the table.
"It's a coincidence that you're here, today is just the time for us to marinate the bacon, this bacon fried rice is extremely delicious, old Peter wants to eat a little more today."
"Okay!" Old Peter had a smile on his face, but his little eyes were looking around.
But he looked left and right, and he didn't see Tang Ping take out those porcelain tableware from last time.
Everyone used ordinary crockery cutlery that can be bought in Porto.
"What's wrong? Old Peter, isn't this bacon to your liking? Tang Ping took a big bite of rice, and the bacon was cut into small cubes mixed with diced potatoes and carrots for fried rice, which was really fragrant.
"Good...... Delicious! Old Peter hurriedly ate two bites, and then finally couldn't help asking, "Don, why is your tableware different today than last time?" ”
"Hey, old Peter, why do you care so much about our cutlery?" Tang Ping stared at him and asked with a smile.
Old Peter sighed: "Looks like you've found out." ”
"Found what?" This time it was Tang Paper's turn to pretend to be stupid.
Old Peter also knew that if he didn't tell the truth, he was afraid that Tang Ping would not let him see those porcelains again in the future, and maybe it would be difficult to meet him in the future.
He just took the line of Fabianlo, the lord of Porto, so naturally he couldn't just let it be broken.
"Well, Don, I admit, I was wrong!" Old Peter said this, but there was no trace of shame on his face: "I did sell that bowl to the Lord of Porto, and sold it for twenty gold coins. ”
Since it has been said, there is no need to hide it.
"Twenty gold coins??" Tang Ping knew the exchange rate of gold and silver coins here, but he didn't expect that bowl to be so valuable?
At first, he thought it would be worth a few hundred silver coins at most.
When Old Peter heard Tang Ping's question, he thought he was too little, so he hurriedly explained: "It's really only sold for twenty gold coins, yes, this is the low market price, but you have to know that if I sell it to the city lord, he will also sell it to the national capital, so I will definitely leave him a little profit." ”
"Well, what about the money!" Tang Ping stretched out his hand and said, "Old Peter, one of the things I say most often in my country is that my brother settles accounts. I can sell this bowl to you for fifteen gold coins, but you can deduct the money for the craftsmen you hired and the building materials, and the money you pay for the food. ”
Although Old Peter deceived a bowl from himself at the beginning, it was also Tang Ping's intention.
If you don't give some bait out, how can Old Peter, a small fish, catch these big fish from the nobles of the Visigothic Kingdom in the back?
In addition, now Old Peter is also the most suitable candidate among them, so Tang Ping forgave him this time.
Old Peter also simply transformed into a businessman, and calculated the money he paid with Tang Ping in a grunt, and then gave Tang Ping the rest of the gold coins.
