Chapter 294: Want to Block Me? Amusing! (3/3)
Spacious and bright large study of the lord.
Rosen looked at the beautiful and shrewd female head of the caravan, and noticed a rare trace of anxiety on her delicate goose egg face, which had always been calm.
It seems that this time the matter is very big, and Candela is not even.
Seeing that she was a little restless, Lawson beckoned the attendant to make her a cup of fragrant tea, and comforted her slowly.
"Director Mona, as long as God is still in the sky, the sky in the golden land will not fall, and there is no need to worry too much about the loss of some interests."
His calm demeanor infected Mona.
The female supervisor was a little calm, reached out to take the fragrant tea handed by the attendant, took a sip, and felt full of fragrance, and her mood was suddenly much more comfortable.
Then, she began to talk about what had happened to her.
"Baron, the impact of your mistaken spell is significant. Other places are acceptable, but the attitude of Shattered Leaf City has changed very much."
As soon as Rosen's heart moved, he had already guessed, "Miss Mona, has the Marquis of Hollennir detained your cargo ship?"
Mona smiled bitterly and shook her head: "I didn't deduct it, but I collected three times the transit tax, and I lost eighty percent of our profits at once."
Merchants run ships to make money, and if they do this, they will all work for Broken Leaf City.
Mona continued to explain the situation.
"The Marquis has a dockmaster named Hozer who is looking for trouble with our cargo ships."
"We asked for a relationship, and said that the Marquis was very angry when he heard that you looked down on the people of the East, so he let it out, as long as there is your goods on the ship, he will collect heavy taxes, and will never let you make any cheap money from the East."
As soon as Rosen heard this, he knew that the Marquis was forcing himself to give in.
Why force it?
Nine times out of ten, it is to let yourself take the initiative to offer the magic principles of petrochemical construction.
"Did the Marquis give any hints?"
"He said...... He said unless you can sincerely apologize for what you said."
"Hey~~ This old guy is really shameless, he wants to take advantage of me, and he even pulls the entire eastern border up to block his gun together."
Even the princess can't say much now.
Rosen had expected such a day, but he didn't expect it to come so quickly, and he could feel that the Marquis of Hollennier was even more greedy than he imagined.
Dealing with this kind of person, Rosen will not give in to his wishes.
Otherwise, it will be a gluttony that can't get enough to eat, and the other party will definitely get an inch, and ask him for money if he has nothing to do.
Seeing that Lawson was silent for a long time, Mona suggested softly, "Why don't you ...... Do you send me an apology to the East?"
She is a businessman, as long as she can make money in business, dignity and glory or something, it doesn't matter.
Lawson smiled: "No!"
"Not only will I not be convinced, but I will also let him come to my door and beg me to sell something!"
Without the passage of the Cold Water River, he will not be doing business in the East for the time being.
Ignoring Mona's disapproval, Rosen insisted, "After passing the riverside town, don't go to the eastern border, take the canal to the middle border, and go to the imperial capital Fort Romil."
"In addition to the Midlands, the Highlands, the Warm Wind Basin, and Winterfell can do business, can't they?"
Mona nodded: "It can be done, but the master has little power in these areas, and I'm afraid the income is less than one-third of what it is now."
The profit is less than a third, and Rosen can bear it, but Candela definitely won't do it, after all, businessmen have no loyalty to speak of, and what they pursue is to maximize profits.
But Rosen naturally has a way.
He asked, "What if I sell the Mithril Petrified Staff?"
Mona's eyes lit up: "That income is estimated to be a big increase to half of what it is now."
"What about a petrified potion?"
"The petrification potion is good, but it doesn't have to be, I guess it's worth mentioning another percent."
Rosen added, "I'm going to sell this, and this."
He handed Mona the illustrated manuscript he had prepared.
"Optical glass, extremely clear telescopes, and
The maximum magnification is 1000x, and the microscope can clearly see the cells."
Mona was shocked: "The microscopic mirror prophesied by the Mirror Grinder?"
She can be Candela's most trusted business executive, and her greatest ability is to be knowledgeable, in addition to not knowing spells, her knowledge and experience are much stronger than ordinary highland mages.
Therefore, she saw at a glance the great value of the microscope.
"That's right, and it's much better than the Master predicted."
Mona immediately looked down at the manuscript provided by Lawson, and as she looked at it, her aqua blue eyes became brighter and brighter.
"Baron, if this information is okay and you can guarantee production. Even if we don't go east, we are confident that we will be able to more than double our current profits."
The current profit from trade is about 140,000 kroner a year, which is twice as much as 280,000, which is richer than the town of Maple Leaf in Bilgu.
Lawson shrugged, "I've already built the corresponding workshop, just waiting for you to get the goods."
The glass process is very mature in this world, and there are many skilled glass workers, even if the process is improved, the production capacity is very fast.
In short, no matter how big Mona's stall is, he can open up the supply.
It is also considered that the optical glass workshop is an important source of profit for Crescent Town in the future, so all the technology is strictly kept secret, and it is built next to the firearms bureau. qs
There are 200 elite troops stationed around to protect it, and there is a full set of secrecy measures, which are guarded as strategic materials.
Mona immediately said, "I'm going to get 10 mirrors first, how much does the baron bid?"
"10,000 kroner each."
In fact, the cost of a microscope is 1,100 crowns, which is due to the use of high-quality materials, such as 80 crowns if it is made of ordinary brass.
The current production capacity is 50 units a day.
But production capacity belongs to production capacity, and under the premise that there are no competitors, a fool will throw all the production capacity into the market.
The best way is to give a small portion of the goods first, creating market scarcity in order to obtain excess profits.
He produced 10 microscopes, and there were only 10 in the golden land. Under the huge scarcity, Lawson naturally dared to shout sky-high prices.
Sell it as a rare treasure first and make a lot of money. When a really strong competitor emerges, a price war will begin.
Mona nodded without hesitation: "Then take ten, and we'll give the money first."
This thing is the only one in the mainland, and after getting it, the price will be shouted with her.
If there is no problem with what this information says, it should not be a problem to sell 15,000 kilograms of Lang.
And the reason why she is so crisp is because Rosen has a great reputation and is very focused on maintaining his reputation.
Seeing that Mona was in a hurry to get the goods, Lawson raised a finger and shook it gently.
"Don't worry, I still have something to say."
He lightly tapped his finger on the table, and said in a condensed voice: "The goods will be sold in the middle realm first, and when the reputation becomes in the future, the people in the east will definitely want it, but my goods will not be sold in the east realm!"
The middle realm is where the imperial capital is located, and it is the center of political belief in the land of gold, and the technology may not be as good as that of the east, but the money is great.
Mona's face was shocked, "Baron, you will offend the Eastern Market by doing this."
Rosen smiled slightly, "Don't worry, how can I be willing to offend the Eastern Market?"
He explained in detail.
"Because the Marquis is blocking our goods, if we want to take the goods to the east, do we have to take a long detour by land?"
"Hmm."
"However, my equipment is very precise, and if I travel too far by land, it is easy to have problems, which leads to the inability to guarantee the interests of customers, and also damages the reputation of my Crescent Glass Workshop."
Mona understood something, "You're going to throw the pressure back on the Marquis?"
Seeing that she understood, Rosen smiled.
"Easterners are shrewd and will soon notice that something is wrong. When the time comes, you will repeat what I have said."
Lawson took a sip of tea, coughed lightly, and cleared his throat.
"I think the Eastside is a very beautiful place, but Marquis Horrenir of Shattered Leaf is a greedy and shameless bastard. It was because of his unjustified obstruction that I painfully chose to give up the Eastside Market. I'm very frustrated and sorry about that."
When Mona heard this, she was still a little worried.
"Baron, the level of refining in the East is very high, what if they copy your microscope?"
Rosen smiled slightly, "I naturally thought of this, but my optical glass uses a lot of unique secret methods. It takes time to imitate, and it is estimated that it will take a year at the shortest."
"At the same time, I have prepared optical glass of better quality and created optical devices that are more precise and functional."
"I can guarantee that my goods will always be the best on the market."
Mona thinks that Rosen is a little overconfident, but since he said so, it also shows that he is fully prepared.
Therefore, in a short period of time, they can indeed make excess profits with the help of technological advantages, and they can also use this to force the marquis to bow his head.
"Then I'll do as you say."
Rosen immediately added a clause.
"By the way, you can pay for this batch of goods. The remaining eighty percent is all imported for me coarse grains, oats, potatoes, large and small cassava, etc., it doesn't matter if the quality is poor, as much as possible."
"No problem."
Then, a new deal is agreed.
Shortly after Mona left, the temple's Granpan priest returned.
He brought a stack of orders.
"Lord, the High Priest personally tested the new magic weapon you provided, and believes that this magic weapon will greatly help increase the exorcism efficiency of the exorcist warriors."
"The High Priest contacted the Great Temple of the Warm Wind Basin again, and the High Priest of the Basin also thought that this new magic weapon was very good, so he also gave a lot of orders."
He handed the order to Rosen, and there were 25 of them.
Rosen took the order and took a closer look, and found that each order ranged from 50 to 300, and each gun was equipped with a requirement of at least 300 rune balls.
In total, this order can provide up to 120,000 kroner of revenue for the Crescent Lord, not to mention the continuous supply of subsequent rune orbs.
Rosen was very happy and said with a smile, "Rest assured, Lord Priest, we will do our best to meet the needs of the temple."
Granpan handed another notebook to Rosen, "Lord, the current rune orb is still a little less powerful, and it is difficult to fight against some powerful demons. So, we want to get more powerful rune balls."
"The specific requirements are all written above."
Rosen took the notes and looked at them carefully, and while looking at them, he estimated in his heart, and after about half an hour, he said, "Rest assured, the main priest, we can meet the requirements of the temple."
"Then wait for the good news from the lord. Oh, by the way, it's a 30% deposit."
The temple was really happy.
When the Granpan priest left, Rosen tapped his finger lightly on the table, and a sneer appeared on his face: "Marquis, Marquis, you want to block me with your little ability? Ridiculous!"
