Chapter 1187 - Profiteering Trading
When Sun Li returned home, he saw Lehe sitting in the hall.
"Today I saw a baby ......"
Sun Li immediately said excitedly to Lehe.
Le He just smiled and listened to Sun Li's gushing words.
"Why aren't you surprised at all? You haven't seen that thing with your own eyes, ......."
Sun Li drank tea with a smile on his face, and said with some emotion, today he has seen a lot.
"What's so surprising about this, they bought this thing from our Liangshan, 20 million guan! If you change it to gold, it's enough to hit such a pillar! β
Le He said with a smile, 20 million guan is an annual tax of 10% in the heyday of the Great Song Dynasty.
"Huh?"
Sun Li suddenly stood up and looked at Le He.
"Don't be surprised, I just learned that this business is allowed by His Majesty."
Lehe said.
"Why, such a good thing! Zhao Huan also said that he would show this crystal dragon totem to the world at the ceremony of the first day of the new year! β
Sun Li looked at Le He and said.
"Let him go, he wants to be blind and don't care."
Lehe said.
"Where did Your Majesty find this thing? Could it be that the brother of the water army really found Xianshan? β
Sun Li asked in a low voice.
"What's the matter, brother-in-law, when did you believe this?"
Lehe was speechless.
"It is rumored outside that the dragon pillar is the remnant of the divine dragon after its ascension, and it only exists in the Immortal Mountain Dragon Palace!"
Sun Li said.
"That's all fired in our Liangshan workshop, I don't know the specific process, it should be similar to burning porcelain! It can't be an immortal mountain at all, and Your Majesty doesn't believe in this set either! β
Lehe replied.
"Don't talk about this, Your Majesty has an order, let us pay close attention to the situation in the court, especially those who are ganging up, we haven't entered the high-ranking mansion yet, we can only rely on you!"
Lehe looked at Sun Li and said.
"Isn't that a coincidence, Shaozai Wu Min has a banquet tomorrow, and he has already sent me a post!"
Sun Li hurriedly said.
"Then this one is just as a gift!"
Le He smiled and took a box next to him and handed it to Sun Li.
"I'll just prepare my own gifts!"
Sun Li excused himself, he is now in the Great Song Dynasty and is also the deputy envoy of the Privy Council, the peak military attache of the second rank, and there is naturally no shortage of money.
"This is sent by Liangshan, you can see it by looking at it."
Lehe said with a smile.
"Oh?"
Hearing that it was sent by Liang Shan, Sun Li came interested and hurriedly opened it.
"This is? Crystal? β
Sun Li looked at the row of delicate crystal cups in the box in surprise.
"It's the same material as the dragon pillar you've seen!"
Lehe said with a smile.
"The same material?"
Sun Li picked up a cup in surprise and looked at it, it was crystal clear, it was really a material.
At this moment, Sun Li believed that the dragon pillar was made, but in his heart, there were shocking waves, how powerful was the Qi State? It is possible to make such a beautiful thing.
"There are more than this box of gifts, this box is all, you usually have a lot of entertainment, you can send more!"
Le He said with a smile, Sun Li is now standing at the peak of military attachΓ©s, and these officials in Tokyo can't avoid inviting Sun Li no matter who holds a banquet, even if it is polite.
"What does that mean?"
Sun Li was confused, he couldn't wait to take this kind of exquisite thing for himself, and he was heartbroken when he sent a box out, and Lehe actually asked him to give away a box.
"This thing will be a new business for our Qi country, and now let you give it to prepare for opening up sales."
Le He smiled helplessly when he saw Sun Li's reluctant appearance, no matter who saw this delicate glass for the first time, he would love it.
"Doing business?"
Sun Li seems to understand something, this is to let him help sell products.
In the next few days, Sun Li traveled to various banquets, and a lot of gifts were given, and many people were itching when they saw the exquisite glass, and asked Sun Li if he still had anything after the banquet.
Sun Li naturally said that there were still ones, and reported the names of several stores.
For a time, there was a glass craze in Tokyo, and all kinds of glassware were in short supply.
The banquet of high-ranking officials and businessmen was replaced with all the same glass tableware, and anyone who did not have glass tableware was embarrassed to hold a banquet, and glass directly became a symbol of nobility.
"I didn't expect these people to be so crazy!"
Shi Qian sighed, an ordinary glass cup is worth consistently, good quality is worth ten times, and some complex shapes are worth dozens of times. It's still rushing to buy, and the time moves to the capital to feel that there is no difference between money and dung.
"Crazy good! Make them crazy! β
Ma Lin said with a smile that the more crazy these people in Tokyo are, the better it will be for them.
"If I didn't know that these things were made of sand or something, I wouldn't be willing to sell them!"
Shi Qian opened his mouth and said, he couldn't figure it out, how could the sand stone burn such a beautiful cup?
β¦β¦
Qi State, Liangshan.
The glasses were sold, and the money flowed to Liangshan like water.
"Haha! Those people in Tokyo are really rich! β
Sun Lei looked at the boatloads of money and laughed, some worthless glass could be exchanged for so much money.
"Your Majesty, I want more from Tokyo!"
Chai Jin looked at Sun Lei and said, there are still many orders for glasses.
"Tell them that this batch has been sold out, but our Qi Navy has already gone to the West, and it will take a while to ship the goods back."
Sun Lei shook his head.
"Your Majesty, now is the perfect time to make money!"
Chai Jin hurriedly said that glass products are now in short supply in Tokyo, and the supply should be increased.
"No, we can't sell it all the time, and we can't let people know that we can produce it, otherwise the price will be knocked down, and the value of something that can be made will be greatly reduced!"
Sun Lei shook his head, he has also seen the hunger marketing in later generations, I don't sell the goods if I have them, let them grab them, the more you can't grab them, the more you want to buy, people have a herd effect, and this kind of hunger will spread.
"Moreover, this thing is not like wine and then it is gone, this cup can last a long time as long as it is not broken! It's a one-shot deal! Gotta take it easy! Stabilize the price! β
Sun Lei added that the market for glass products can be saturated.
"Your Majesty, we have earned a total of 380 million yuan from this trade! Excluding costs, the profit is about 290 million, and the highest cost is the labor cost of grain and workshops. β
Jiang Qin flipped through the ledger and finally reported a number.
"Not bad! Not bad! β
Sun Lei is very satisfied, this wave has earned taxes for several years, and he no longer has to worry about money.
"If only these things could be sold abroad!"
Sun Lei touched his chin and thought about it, making money is really addictive, and this kind of lucrative business is even more unstoppable.
"Your Majesty, the navy can protect the caravan from going to sea!"
Ruan Xiaoer opened his mouth and said that he wanted to explore the waters of other countries, in addition to the warships that had fought in the past, and also used the caravan as an excuse.
"Well, Chai Daguan, you are in charge, Xiao Er will cooperate with you!"
Sun Lei looked at Chai Jindao, Chai Jin is also good at dealing with other countries.
