Chapter 358
The table was filled with a table full of dazzling things, some of whom knew and some of whom did not.
Herman felt very curious, this one picked up and looked at it, and that one picked it up and looked at it.
It's all women's stuff, from boots to bags and even underwear.
One of the women's underwear is made of the same fabric as a pair of socks.
"Hahaha, it's called a thong. It is a woman's sexy underwear, which is specially worn for her own men. Seeing Herman staring at his underwear, Zheng Sen smiled slightly.
"Oooh!" Herman blushed a little, and at the same time was a little passionate. He really wanted his hot lover to wear this thing tonight...... What's ......!
"This is the latest leather bag, crocodile. But there will be a new model next year, and this one is a global limited edition.
Worldwide, only a thousand are produced per year.
Don't underestimate this thing, how is the price equivalent to the Reichsmark, it can be sold for 100,000 pieces. Zheng Sen weighed the crocodile leather bag in his hand.
Good boy!
A broken leather bag actually costs 100,000 Reichsmarks, inlaid with gold or silver? Not to mention crocodile skin, even if it is all made of gold, it is not worth 100,000 Reichsmarks.
Herman picked it up and looked at it carefully, the lines of ancient bark. I don't know how to deal with the leather surface, it's very bright and smooth.
There are two copper buckles at the mouth of the leather bag, on which there is a crocodile with teeth and claws.
Herman examined the brass buckle carefully, and made sure it wasn't made of gold, just copper.
You know, the average German worker now earns no more than fifty Reichsmarks a month.
One hundred thousand Reichsmarks, the monthly income of two thousand German workers.
The wages of 2,000 people, just buy this?
"Hahaha, I know you don't think it's worth it. But show it to your wife, and you'll know that these things are worth a thousand dollars.
These are the samples I've brought, and if you're willing, we'll work together to open a nice shop that sells these things.
Trust me, women are going crazy to see this. Zheng Sen looked at Herman with a smile.
"This ......!" Herman knew that whether it was ready-to-wear or these high-end goods that would drive women crazy, they would definitely not be sold.
It's just that this pricing is also a bit too outrageous, a hundred thousand Reichsmarks. Whoever is a woman who dares to spend so much money on this thing will be beaten to death by a man when she returns home.
"Don't doubt the price I'm talking about!" Zheng Sen seems to be able to read Herman's heart.
"This bag has already sold more than ten in Germany, and the last buyer was called ...... Eva. Braun! ”
Zheng Sen said this name softly, which made Herman instantly dispel his suspicions.
"Okay, I'll do it. My housekeeper will discuss specific matters with you. Herman didn't think about it and immediately agreed to cooperate.
Zheng Sen smiled slightly, and got another one.
After getting two more deals, he can go back to Daming.
German meals, tortured and he was about to vomit. No matter who is treated, there is always a huge pork knuckle and sausage on the table.
And it seems that everyone is competing, competing to see whose elbow is bigger. I really don't know where Germany got such a big pig from.
How are they raised? Zheng Sen was interested to know how the Germans raised pigs.
The elbow that he had just eaten with Herman was definitely part of a giant pig.
If you raise pigs like this in Daming......!
Forget it, it is popular to eat suckling pig at the upper class banquet of the Ming Dynasty. Who the fuck eats such big elbows!
The mission of this visit to Germany is to promote those luxury goods.
In Li Xiao's words, a rich customer is more profitable than 10,000 ordinary customers.
Daming's latest products, or the latest luxury goods. It is the main purpose of Zheng Sen's visit to Germany this time!
After the frenzied expansion, there will always be a large number of wives scattered and displaced.
However, there are also some people who can benefit greatly from this.
The interests have long been a group of emerging elites, and a group of potential customers of luxury goods have long been available.
According to Li Xiao's words, if this kind of high-quality customer does not develop itself, it will let others develop.
But then again, the price of these luxury goods is really daring.
The price of 100,000 crocodile leather bags is not top-notch, and the thing called the donkey brand is really expensive.
If nothing else, a men's belt alone costs 10,000 Reichsmarks.
There is also a bag, and the asking price has reached 300,000.
In the eyes of Zheng Sen and Herman, the money is almost enough to buy a good small airship.
But when women see these things, it's like flies see carrion.
One by one, the eyes were shining and they picked it up and admired it, and they did not hesitate to spend a lot of money for these bags.
I don't have so much money in my pocket, and my eyes are full of regret. It is estimated that when I return home, I will inevitably complain to my own man.
It seems that the Reichsmark of Germany will be lost very badly.
At night, only the price of two wallets was used. Zheng Sen successfully soaked in an earl's daughter, but she was definitely a stunner in bed.
Zheng Sen, who was tossing, didn't get up until ten o'clock the next day.
There is nothing wrong with this, women are the real bone scraping steel knives.
I had an afternoon with that little girl, and there was another banquet in the evening.
Zheng Sen ordered someone to go home from this little girl, because there would be a new guest on this bed tonight.
Yarma Shacht, Minister of Finance of the Empire.
He has been in charge of the empire's finances for two years, and he is the first batch of upstarts to be promoted after Ashi took power.
In the past two years, both Deutsche Bank and the German Ministry of Finance have been doing well.
His most impressive achievement was that he used German industry, which was not strong, to feed two wars that exhilarated the Germans.
He was the target of today's dinner, as the Ming decided to open their bond market to Europe.
Any bank needs a robust and secure investment channel.
Deutsche Bank is no exception!
The risk of Daming's treasury bonds is almost non-existent, because this kind of country is backed by Daming's national credit.
Moreover, the yield of Daming treasury bonds is quite good, and the bank can make a lot of money by calculating the interest rate.
Of course, Almar Shacht will not let go of this piece of fat and persuade Daming to open up the treasury bond market.
Or to persuade the Ming to sell the national debt to the Deutsche Bank, Almar Schacht not only struggled to speak, but also spent a large amount of money with Ribbentrop.
Today, the dream is finally coming true.
As long as the envoy of His Excellency the Generalissimo of the Ming Dynasty nods, the business will be completed.
Deutsche Bank, soon with a steady income.
Although the German top brass knew that there might be a battlefield between Daming and Germany.
However, the Ming treasury bonds are hard currency, which can not only be redeemed in the Ming Dynasty, but also can be transferred to other European countries, even the United States.
They also have a great interest in the Ming treasury bonds.
"Hello, Mr. Da Honglu." Almar Shacht shook hands with Zheng Sen affectionately.
He did not arrange the banquet in his own estate, although as a count he had his own estate, he still arranged the banquet in Humboldt.
It was once a royal palace, but it is now owned by Deutsche Bank.
In this negotiation, Deutsche Bank benefited the most, and they deserved to shed some blood.
Today, Deutsche Bank President Klosik also attended the banquet.
"Hello, Mr. Dahonglu. This is Deutsche Bank President Klosik! Yarma Schacht shook hands with Zheng Sen warmly.
At the same time, Klosik, who was next to him, was introduced.
"Hello!" The first time he saw Zheng Sen, the German Earl shook hands with Zheng Sen very gentlemanly.
"Nice to meet you!"
After greeting at the door, the three of them walked inside side by side.
After all, it was a former royal palace, compared to Herman's house, there was less luxury and tackyness, more extravagance, and the whole building and decoration style was majestic and atmospheric.
Herman, whom I saw yesterday, is an upstart who has only risen from a commoner in the past few years.
And the two guys in front of him, who controlled the financial lifeblood of the German Empire, were proper old aristocrats.
They all have hereditary earl titles, and they are polite in their words and deeds. Several times, if the other person did not speak German, he thought he was dealing with the British.
The banquet was very simple, and Zheng Sen saw the big elbow again. God, is this a pig's knuckle? Is there such a big pig in the world?
According to conservative estimates, this pig definitely weighs more than half a ton to have such a big elbow.
It's all Ribbentrop's ghost, who talks about big celebrities and likes to discuss things at the wine table, while drinking.
Daming has such a habit, but the official negotiation is still good at the negotiation table. Now that it is at the dinner table, Zheng Sen is a little uncomfortable.
The major trade agreements between two countries are all set at the wine table.
"This time, the treasury bonds issued by Daming to Europe are only 500 million Daming silver dollars.
Although the amount is not large, the annual interest rate is very good. Even if you earn the interest margin, you can make a lot of money. ”
Zheng Sen got straight to the point, since he was talking about things, he should talk about it first. Germans generally drink a lot, and the two guys in front of them seem to be good at drinking.
The most important thing is that the whiskey thing is too hard to drink, Zheng Sen has been drinking it for more than ten years, and it seems to be drinking medicine.
It is far inferior to Daming's wine, and it still has an aftertaste.
"Deutsche Bank can eat all these bonds." Yarmar Shacht's eyes lit up at the hearing.
He didn't even make eye contact with Klosik, and he was about to eat all the national debt in one bite.
"I'm not done yet, this is a 10-year Treasury bond. The payment of the treasury bonds will not be until ten years later, and the Ming Empire will only pay interest during the ten years, and will not bear the responsibility of paying the treasury bonds.
Treasury bonds are registered government bonds, but of course, if you want to sell them, you can do that. It's just that you have to go to the Ming Imperial Bank to prepare for it.
So that the Ming Imperial Bank will not make mistakes when cashing in the future.
The issue of interest rates has already been explained in advance, so I will not repeat it here.
You say you want them all, and that's a bit difficult.
I know that Germany is strong now, but even if you are strong, you are only a part of Europe, not all of Europe.
There's news from Zurich, and they want it all.
There is also news from the Vatican that they want to subscribe for a part.
Italy and Spain are all interested, and I can't give you all the share of the national debt. Zheng Sen looked at the two gods of wealth in Germany very arrogantly.
In the eyes of others, they are the presidents of the high-ranking Reichsbank and the finance ministers of Germany.
But in Zheng Sen's eyes, they are just two veteran aristocrats who beg to do their own things.
That's the benefit of a strong country!
Even if it is debt, it has become a sweet tooth.
"Uh......, what conditions do you have, Da Honglu, just say it. If we can do it, we will do it. "Almar Schacht doesn't know what Zheng Sen has to choose, and the great Honglu of a country will not ask for bribes.
"One of the things I had a great deal of trouble during this time was that a brother of my family had bought a coal mine in Saxony.
It's just that because of some procedural problems, it is always difficult for the local government. I wanted to get a friend in Germany to help, but Ribbentrop didn't work.
I heard that the people there were very tough, and they didn't give the foreign minister any face. ”
Zheng Sen turned the wine glass in one hand and said with a very sad look.
Yarma Shacht and Klosik glanced at each other!
They understood that it must be the old Duke of Saxony who did not like the Ming people to grab coal mines on their land.
Now German industry is booming, and coal is the real black gold.
As long as you collect these things from the ground, there is no trouble of not being able to sell them.
And it's all good price, the Saxony coal mine is of good quality, the yield is high, and the coal seam is very shallow. Some, even open-pit coal mines.
Compared with coal shipped from other places, the coal from the Saxony coal mine at least saves a lot of freight compared to other places.
Don't underestimate the shipping fee, it's a lot of money.
The Duke of Saxony has always held the right to mine the mines. The Ming people came to mine coal, which moved the old guy's financial resources, and the old guy was willing to submit to the softness.
It's a bit tricky, even though it's an empire now. But the Duke of Saxony is a veteran duke of the Empire, and when Frederick and Bismarck saw him, they also had to give some face.
In Saxony, the old guy is the existence of the emperor of the soil, and if he wants to move his ......, the two of them don't have that strength yet.
"Well......, we'll take care of that. It must have been done properly! Yarma Shacht gritted her teeth and took a bite to accept.
Klosik looked at the finance minister in a bit of a daze, and didn't dare to speak!
