Chapter 333: The Cheng Family's Caravan Is Really Kind!
As Wang Xuance expected.
The team led by Lu Dongzan, dragging a cart full of alcohol, staggered all the way from outside Shanzhou to the Gobi Desert.
It's still the same place it used to be.
There are still caravans waiting here.
It's just that, unlike at the beginning, this time there was not only one caravan waiting on the Gobi Desert, but several side by side!
"You've been waiting, you've been waiting!"
Lu Dongzan turned over and dismounted and walked to everyone, bowed his hands one by one, and behaved without the slightest problem, very polite.
But these people's faces are not very good-looking.
Although he already knew that Tubo was doing business with many families at the same time, it was still embarrassing to know that it was still embarrassing to meet in person.
What does it mean that he called a group of people together?
Wang Ping snorted coldly first.
"Lu Dongzan, you called us here, do you want to sit on the ground and raise the price?"
"Don't be a fool in my Tang family!"
In normal times, Wang Ping would never speak like this. can climb from an ordinary family to this position, he has always been a kind and wealthy businessman, and he will not be sarcastic.
But now, Tubo's practices are not in accordance with the rules, and they are really too deceitful!
If you don't lose your temper, you'll really think they're all easy to bully!
Although the caravans were all competitors, in terms of position, they were the same as Wang Ping.
Hearing this, the leaders of the rest of the caravans also echoed their words.
"yes, how can there be such a thing? Don't you Tubo people do this kind of thing when doing business with each other? ”
"It's not proper to put it anywhere!"
"Even if this is no problem in Tubo, but Your Excellency has been to the Tang Dynasty, you should know what the rules of the Han people are, and you can't do it so obviously when you wait for the price to sell!"
“……”
In the midst of the condemnation, Lu Dongzan's face did not change.
Still smiling, he raised his hand to stop the disgruntled shouting.
"Everyone, everyone! Please calm down and listen to me! ”
"I don't want to sit on the ground and sell at the price, and I don't have such thoughts!"
"It's just because the amount of alcohol here is limited, and there will be fewer to sell to you this time, so I need to make it clear in front of you, so as to avoid some unnecessary misunderstandings!"
The scene fell silent.
On the Gobi Desert in winter, there are still snowflakes like goose feathers.
The wind was biting, and the locals were used to it, but the Han people were so cold that their hands and faces were red, and they kept stomping their feet to warm up.
But after listening to Lu Dongzan's words, the sound of stomping his feet before stopped.
The scene was a little awkward at one point.
Wang Ping was stunned for a while, and then asked, "What do you mean by this, why do you suddenly want to sell us less wine?" ”
Lu Dongzan's smile became more and more understanding.
"You hadn't come to buy the drinks before, and Zamp and many of his colleagues thought something was wrong."
"Therefore, when Fang Cai handed over the wine to the Cheng family, he specially asked two sentences, and then I learned that the sales of wine in Chang'an and Luoyang and other places have not been very good recently."
"Although you are all from a family and your strength is undoubted, I can understand that you have not entered the account, and you are relatively nervous. So I decided to wait until next spring to exchange some more with you, do you have any questions about this? ”
The end of the sentence.
The embarrassment on the Gobi Desert directly became silent.
The caravan leaders from many families in the Tang Dynasty looked at each other, only feeling that they had hit a ghost......
Isn't that damn unlucky?!
Wang Ping secretly scolded in his heart-
Grandma is a bear, which of the caravan of the Duke of Lu Guo is the stunned team? It's not good to say anything, but he actually praised Lu Dong's recent situation in Chang'an!
This is the rhetoric they are going to use to lower the price!
Even if the Cheng family caravan was ventilated in advance, it was nothing. But the question is, who knows what else they said?
If what the two sides say is not correct, how will they do business with the Tubo people in the future?!
There was a long silence.
"That's why ......"
Wang Ping smiled a little reluctantly:
"Your Excellency need not worry about this. As you just said, our Taiyuan Wang family has been inherited for hundreds of years, and the family is strong, although it is winter now, the materials are really tight, but it is no problem to buy hundreds of bottles of wine as usual. ”
"In my opinion, the share of our trade is still the same as before, and there is no need to reduce it at all!"
All the caravans present had traveled thousands of miles to this bitter cold place with the same purpose.
Buy wine!
Although their family did not have much liquidity, they did not use grain and money to exchange wine with Tibet, but salt and tea. They don't talk too much about this kind of thing, but it's not to the point of being stretched.
Everyone is ready to use the bad sales of wine in Chang'an Luoyang as an excuse to lower the price.
But this matter was blown in advance, and all the original plans were nullified.
The plan now is to not lift a stone and shoot yourself in the foot......
You can't miss the drinks you bought!
As a result, the rest of the caravan leaders began to echo Wang Ping one after another, trying to persuade Lu Dongzan not to reduce the share of each family.
But Lu Dongzan was unmoved.
He just smiled and said: "You don't have to persuade again, we are doing long-term business, you are nervous, and you can't take advantage of the fire to rob, right?" Rest assured, although this amount is less, the wine itself is still in Tibet. Just wait for the spring next year, and you and I will replace it! ”
The corners of Wang Ping's mouth kept twitching.
Niang Xipi!
What a bad luck for my grandmother!!
It seems that this guy has eaten the scales and has an iron heart, and today he has to be a "good person" and cut the shares of all the families!
Before they could think of an excuse to refute anything, Lu Dongzan directly ordered to let his soldiers exchange salt and tea for seventy percent of the original amount of each family.
What is done cannot be undone.
After the caravan got their share of the wine, their expressions stiffened, and they said goodbye without smiling, and left as if they were chasing after their buttocks.
The handover is complete.
Lu Dongzan, who had drunk alcohol and looked a little drunk, also returned to normal like Wang Xuance at this time.
I didn't tell that I had drunk the spirits just now.
A subordinate on the side cautiously asked, "You have decided to do it privately...... Aren't you worried about being punished by Zampu when you go back? After all, we have collected so much less salt and tea! ”
The rest of the people also looked at Lu Dongzan with the same doubts in their eyes.
Even though they are not the master of things, they all do it together. The reward is required, but if Zampu loses his temper at that time, they will also be unlucky with Lu Dongzan!
Lu Dongzan glanced at everyone lightly, his face was calm, and his tone was also very cold.
"You know what?"
"If I don't do this, this gang of traitors will definitely use the reason that Chang'an wine can't be sold to lower the price!"
"Compared to being underpriced, I believe that Zamp will also think that it is more cost-effective to wait a few months and then sell at the original price. And there is no shortage of time, so why bother to cheapen them? ”
"If you don't understand something, you can look good and learn hard, talk less and do more!"
The subordinates were silent, not daring to question Lu Dongzan's decision anymore.
He no longer bothered with this group of stupid subordinates, but looked at the sky with his hands and sighed.
"...... comparatively"
"Lu Guogong is still much kinder!"
