The fleets of the three slave traders, Gu Rui, Luffrey, and Rothsier, left Tianzhu and headed south along the east coast of Mozhou.

The three still meet from time to time to discuss the details of the follow-up opening of the Qinglou in Mengxian County.

At the same time, on their own ships, they screen and select the right personnel.

Gu Rui went to pick the more turbulent orchid.

Gu Rui's green buildings are all in the style of good quality and low price.

That is, he goes directly to the kidneys, and does not engage in any piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, vassal elegance, and miserable fishing routines.

Rothschild is also a teenager who picks a similar style.

Rothschild does not have the business concept of Qinglou for the time being, and the Qinglou to be engaged in is nominally operated by Gu Rui, so it is natural to copy Gu Rui's business model.

Gu Rui's ship has arrived at its destination and directly applied for customs declaration and "unloading".

The destination of Luffrey and Rothchild is southwest Mezhou, and they are now applying for resupply and repair at the port of Mengxian.

Lufrey didn't have a ghost in his heart, and dared to really dock here for supplies.

Rothel thought he had a safe way to hide his cargo, and he didn't have any goods on board at the moment, so he dared to dock directly.

Rothschild took a sum of money and handed it over to his two right-hand men, and the whole family depended on the kind of survival of the Rothsier consortium.

Let them take the young man they picked out and follow Gu Rui ashore to try to register and open a green building.

In addition, more than a dozen ordinary Tianzhu servants were arranged, who didn't know their true identities and didn't know their own smuggling methods, and they couldn't spit out anything if they were caught, and they didn't feel distressed if they gave up.

Let them go to the island and wander around and observe the environment and conditions on the island.

Later that evening, the servants returned to the ship and reported the discovery to Rothschild.

Mine-protected and anti-submarine nets have been added around Mengxian Island, making it impossible for large and small submarines to sneak in and out.

The control of entry and exit from Mengxian Island is much stricter than before last year's crackdown, but it is much more relaxed than during the crackdown.

At the same time, I got the news that Prince Dashi had left Mengxian County with his family scroll.

There are no wanted warrants for Aunt An and a few guys inside and outside the city.

On the morning of the second day, Aunt An carefully put on makeup and completely changed her appearance.

From an old Persian woman to a middle-aged Tessie woman.

Then he took a few of his men, as well as a few of Rothiel's servants, and went ashore into the city.

Aunt Ann underwent a strict inspection at the exit of the pier and was reminded to undergo a full body check when she left.

It explains which goods have purchase restrictions, how much of the excess will be withheld, and how much of the excess will be considered smuggling.

After Aunt An successfully left the port, she went around in a big circle in Mengxian County.

After making sure that no one was following him, he asked Rothschild's two servants to go to the New Roman Tea House to check on the situation.

None of them have shown up in Mengxian County, so they should not attract the attention of the government.

…………

Today is April 8, the third year of Ankang, the first rest day of April for the workers of the Great Food Country.

Aoxue was dressed in red and sat at the counter of the New Roman Tea House in a daze.

Ao Xue, as one of Zhu Jingyuan's de facto subordinates, was notified when Zhu Jingyuan left.

Some people will continue to connect with themselves, and some people can continue to supply themselves.

If he encounters something, he can directly report and ask for help from Master Pan, who is the director of the entire East Mo Continent.

Master Pan knew that his king had arranged it, so he was also very polite to himself and expressed his full support for himself.

In the entire Mengxian County, and even the entire East Mozhou, there is no one with a harder background than himself now.

However, Aoxue was not happy at all.

"The king is gone, what is the meaning of my life......

Aoxue once again lost her ideals, and her mechanical numb work and life were step-by-step.

His two brothers got married one after another, and they were able to rent a separate apartment with their wives.

His parents didn't want to see him, and after he had space in the dormitory where he could work, he no longer came to the tea shop to rub the room.

My sister often comes to see me, and recently someone wants to introduce her to someone.

But Ao Xue vaguely felt that her sister didn't seem to want to get married, and she was very perfunctory about this kind of thing.

She bought her own bicycle and often rode out for walks.

But none of this has anything to do with me.

Ao Xue had only one thought in her heart: how could she have a chance to meet the king.

This morning, when Aoxue was in a daze, two people walked into the store and came to the opposite side of her.

They are supposed to be Hu people of a certain ethnic group, who seem to be men, but give people the impression of women.

The body is also slender and slender than the average girl, and the image and temperament are also very soft and delicate.

They all seemed to be fourteen or fifteen years old, wearing clothes similar to their own.

But the skirt was shorter than herself, only covering half of her thighs, and she was wearing white pantyhose on her legs.

A slightly taller boy spoke first, and said in a very non-standard Daming Ya dialect:

"You're Aoxue, right? Aunt Ann asked us to come, can you still supply us now? ”

When Ao Xue heard these two words, her whole person immediately became energetic.

Ever since Aunt Ann escaped, Aoxue had been looking forward to her coming back to find her again.

In order to complete his mission, continue to investigate and track down the smuggling methods of these smugglers.

It's also about making money for yourself.

Now that no one smuggles it, I can't sell the goods I take, and I can't get a penny.

Every month's wages must be deducted to offset their "unauthorized misappropriation of stolen money".

But waiting left and right, just don't see anyone.

Until the end of the year, the entire first quarter has passed.

The king has already left with Chunxiang Niangniang.

I have made up the stolen money for my own wages, and now I finally have news again.

Now Aoxue is even more excited.

Only when the real big smuggler is caught, the key is to figure out the smuggling method, and then you will have the opportunity to report it to the king!

There is a chance for the king to be reminded of his existence again.

Ao Xue was ecstatic in her heart, but on the surface she was silent, and even said a little lazily and impatiently:

"Of course I can supply it, but why didn't Aunt An come herself? Can you two children who don't have the same hair as you decide? ”

When the two teenagers heard the insulting language, their expressions suddenly became a little ugly, but they resisted the urge to line up with Ao Xue:

"I'll take you to someone who can make a decision."

Ao Xue hesitated for a few seconds, then nodded directly in agreement:

"Okay, you wait here for me for a while, and I'll go get something in the yard."

Ao Xue didn't wait for the two teenagers to agree, and got up directly and went to the backyard to find the people left here by Zhu Jingyuan and Chunxiang.

Explained the situation to them, let them act on the opportunity, and then returned to the front desk and left the tea shop with the two teenagers.

Ao Xue followed the two teenagers all the way through the streets and alleys, and met Aunt An in the box of another teahouse.

Aunt An smiled and saluted Aoxue, and at the same time asked directly to the point:

"I'm worried that I'm registered on the side of Da Shiguo Jinyiwei, so I don't dare to show up casually, so I can only ask the young lady to come out and talk.

"Miss Aoxue, can you still supply it now? Can you get the latest three-part stretch silk version? How much does one cost? ”

Ao Xue said very decisively:

"Yes, I can get any goods, and of course the price is also very high, thirty percent of elastic silk products, seventy silver bills."

Aunt An immediately shook her head and said:

"The price is too high for us to accept.

"Now Sancheng elastic yarn products, the official sales plan is invited.

"Anyone who buys this product can buy it again, and they have the right to bring their friends to buy it.

"But the smuggled goods certainly do not have this function, and directly lose the possibility of being equivalent to the highest grade products.

"The key is that the new product of two percent of elastic yarn has now been sold in seventy silver bills for a long time.

"Simply wearing it, it looks no different from Sancheng stretch silk.

"Therefore, the smuggled goods of thirty percent of elastic silk can be sold for eighty silver bills at most, or even for seventy.

"So when we receive the goods, we can only get a maximum of thirty silver bills."

Aoxue's expression became ugly, and after being silent for a long time, she seemed to have made some kind of decision:

"If you're going to pick up thirty silver bills, tell me where you're shipping.

"I'll give you half of the goods, and I'll sell half of them myself.

"Also, you're going to help me get the goods out."

This time it was Aunt An's turn to be surprised:

"You...... Let's help you get the goods off the island? That is, the person behind you doesn't have this ability? ”

Ao Xue said rather melancholy:

"They have already left Mengxian County, and I will take care of everything myself."

Aunt An once again confirmed her guess that Aoxue's owner was really from the Great Food King's harem.

Because the big man who recently left Meng County, that is, the big food king and the people around him.

But without waiting for Aunt An to tempt, Aoxue Aoxue cheered up again and said very rudely:

"Don't talk nonsense, you don't accept my goods."

Aunt An thought for a few seconds and said:

"Even if you take half of the goods and go to Tessie, and then give them to the end sellers to sell, you can only sell them for fifty to sixty silver bills, because they also have to make money.

"If you want to sell us the other half of the thirty silver bills, a compromise between the two sides is equivalent to you selling all the goods for forty silver bills in general, so it is better to give it to us directly for the price of forty silver bills."

Ao Xue waved her hand a little irritably and said:

"You're wrong, if you don't help me bring the goods out and don't introduce the channel to me, I won't sell you a piece of goods at the price of thirty silver bills, and it is impossible to sell you forty silver bills.

"If you only want the goods and don't want to give anything else, then seventy silver bills a piece, do you like it or not."

Aunt An asked very tangled rhetorically:

"If we tell you the channel and help you take the goods out, how can you be willing to ship to us in the future? Didn't you sell it all yourself? ”

Aoxue seemed to scratch her head a little bored:

"Then I'll take a step back, you guys help me bring the goods out, and I don't have to tell your Tessie channel."

Aunt An immediately asked:

"You don't want channels, as long as we help bring the goods, and after we help you bring them out, will you sell them to us?

"What's the difference between that and selling to us at a price here?"

Ao Xue said with a grimace:

"I'm going to go to Tessie Retail myself, and now I need a way to get the goods out.

"If you have a safe way to give me, I can pay enough for it.

"I definitely won't be able to sell much in the early days, so I still have to give you a large quantity of goods in the early days.

"If you tell me the method, I will continue to ship to you even if I bring the goods myself in the future.

"Even we can cooperate, bring goods together, sell together.

"Set up a smuggling channel from the workshop warehouse in Mengxian County to the customers of Taixi.

"We don't have any other middlemen, we make all the profits.

"You can refuse, and I'll continue to find a way on my own.

"When I find a solution myself, you don't want to get goods from me.

"Because you don't cooperate with me, then we are competitors, and of course we will strangle your supply."

After hearing this, Aunt An shook her head directly:

"Miss Aoxue, if you're not just here for smuggling, if you're an official from the Great Food Country......

"We told you how to bring the goods, and it was really self-defeating."

Aoxue's expression was very ugly:

"Since you still don't believe me, get out of here, and don't come to me again.

"Let's see if I find a way to bring the goods first, or if you find a sufficient supply of goods first."

Aunt An is used to being scolded by Aoxue, and she won't lose a piece of meat if she is scolded anyway.

He is still sitting in place and not moving.

If it's Rothschild talking in person...... Even if Rothschild talks about it personally, the method of bringing goods is not impossible to trade.

In the eyes of the Tessians, all matters have a value.

Anything can be sold as long as it comes up with enough value.

Moreover, the same thing, in the hands of different people, has different values.

In the hands of Rothschild, the value of the method of bringing goods, probably no one can afford it.

Because that's how he monopolized the smuggling channel, and it represented an almost unlimited profit margin.

But in Aunt An's hands, the value is not so high.

Because this method is not your own, you use it to smuggle it yourself just to work for Rothschild.

If you can take advantage of this thing, you can make enough profits at a time, enough to break away from Rotheschild and run it on his own.

Then the secret is not that it cannot be sold.

It's just that when it comes to selling, you still have to pay attention to ways and means.

After careful consideration, Aunt An looked around, and the two Rothesmine retinues were nearby.

But don't worry about leaking information, and you won't reveal that you want to make a profit in the conversation.

Even, if he could, he would try to empty the gloves of the white wolf.

Don't really give a method, and get a batch of goods at the same time.

At the same time, if it can really be verified that Aoxue really cooperates sincerely, it is not impossible to really cooperate.

So Aunt An smiled and said:

"If Miss Aoxue really wants to cooperate, then let us see your sincerity.

"After all, we've only met twice, and we don't know anything about your past.

"So, please provide two hundred pieces of goods for free and leave Mengxian directly with us.

"After we get to the open sea, we will discuss cooperation after avoiding the possibility of being arrested and arrested."

Ao Xue directly laughed and said:

"The old wants to empty the gloves of the white wolf? Are you an idiot to be an aunt and grandmother?

"Two hundred pieces...... Something worth at least 20,000 silver bills, in exchange for an empty opportunity to discuss cooperation?

And then the result of the discussion was that we couldn't cooperate?

"After Bai got so many goods, you ran away and didn't contact me, where can I find you?

"You don't know me, and I don't know you either!

"If you want to get the goods from me, you should also show some sincerity!"

Aunt An is used to being called an old, and now she is not angry at all:

"If the result of the discussion is that we cannot cooperate, then we will buy your goods for thirty silver bills."

Ao Xue frowned and thought for a while:

"At least fifty silver bills, and when they are delivered to you, they will be traded, not after they have gone out.

"I want to keep the money in Mengxian, otherwise after you get on the high seas, you gang may not dare to eat black."

Ao Xue had shouted a fixed price of seventy silver bills before, because it was a pure single transaction price.

In addition to the current price of the 50 silver bill, there is also an opportunity for cooperation and discussion.

Aunt An also frowned and thought about it for a while:

"Fifty is too high, at most forty silver bills, and we don't currently retail them ourselves, but we want to leave a profit for retailers.

"Now that there are official high-end products of the seventy silver banknotes, it is difficult for their final retail price to exceed the seventy silver bills......

Ao Xue said impatiently:

"The old still plays me like a child, what does it mean that it is difficult to exceed seventy silver bills?

"The most important difference between the smuggled goods we sell and the official seal branded goods that sell 120 silver banknotes is that they do not have the right to invite the purchase of the highest grade products.

"Now the official sale of 70 silver banknotes under the standard license, the same does not have this kind of invitation authority, the old official sale of 100 silver banknotes in the old seal license, there is no such rule.

"If these external factors are excluded, the new seal label smuggled goods we sell are a grade higher than the official 70 silver banknotes.

"The proportion of elastic silk is one percent higher, and the original price of the licensed goods is one hundred and twenty silver banknotes, which is a top seal book hot stamping label.

"This kind of goods can be sold for less than eighty silver bills, which is waste, and ninety silver bills are the normal price, and only when they are sold for one hundred silver bills can they be regarded as capable!

"Fifty silver bills is my bottom line, if I didn't want to cooperate with you, I wouldn't have been able to give you this price!

"Either take the official seventy silver bills and label the goods, and we can sell you thirty silver bills."

Aunt An continued to persuade several times, but Ao Xue never let go, and insisted on the price of fifty silver bills.

Aunt An was very helpless in her heart, and at the same time, she trusted Aoxue a little more.

This kind of attitude of insisting on calculating and raising the price as much as possible is really like a person who is trying to make money.

If it is an official undercover agent who investigates his own smuggling channels, he should not be so serious about the price.

That kind of person will be more desperate to find channels and methods of smuggling.

That kind of person may not have the ability to calculate needles and needles.

This process of bargaining is also a process of building trust.

The large-scale transaction itself is also the mutual sincerity of both parties, and there is a basis for cooperation after the transaction is completed.

In the end, Aunt An sighed helplessly and said:

"Well, for the sake of our future cooperation, we can now make a slight concession.

"For the price of fifty silver bills, you go and prepare the goods, and I will prepare the payment, and we will contact you tomorrow."

The two negotiated the deal and immediately left the scene.
