Chapter 1120 Tax Increase
Zheng Zhihu opened a wave of ultra-high prices with a black heart, which was five times more expensive than his purchase price in Shanghai Port on average, and the most expensive price was Dove chocolate.
This thing was originally expensive, it was given a little bit by Li Daoxuan when he was in a good mood, and Li Daoxuan had lost weight recently, and he hadn't bought chocolate for a long time. If he doesn't buy it, he certainly won't give it to the villains.
The existing chocolates in Gaojia Village are mainly the inventory of the old village chief.
It was transported by merchants from Gaojia Village to Heyang Qiachuan Wharf, and then transferred to Xiaolangdi, and then taken by river and sea dual-purpose ship to Shanghai Port.
This layer by layer of transshipment makes its price continue to rise.
In the hands of Zheng Zhihu, it is already a sky-high price.
Zheng Zhihu transported it across the ocean again...... Sent to the port of Nagasaki, and then multiplied tenfold.
Its price is already incomprehensible to ordinary people.
The local merchant got the goods from Zheng Zhihu and added 20% of the price......
The price is so expensive, and of course the packaging has to keep up.
The local merchant found a beautiful ceramic box, the kind that is so beautiful that it can be sold for a few taels of silver in the Wa Kingdom.
In the middle of the box, a small piece of chocolate is carefully placed.
Then the price of two hundred and fifty taels of silver, referred to as two hundred and five, was bought by a samurai who was eager to be promoted and wanted to give a gift to the boss, and then sent it to the Nagasaki Imperial Servant, Nabeshima Katsushige's mansion.
Nabeshima Katsushige, a famous general during the Warring States period of the Wa Kingdom, the son of Nabeshima Naoshige, the daimyo of the 357,000-stone territory, after the Battle of Sekigahara, was named the Nagasaki Imperial Servant, and has been sitting in Nagasaki Port.
A small surname held the porcelain box in both hands and handed it to Nabeshima Katsushige: "My lord, this is the Tang thing that the people below gave you." ”
Tang Wu is the general name of the things that were handed down from the Ming Dynasty by the Japanese people at that time.
"Tang Wu?" Nabeshima Katsushige has long been strange to Tang things, because of the relationship between the port of Nagasaki, he can come into contact with the goods of the whole world sent by the maritime merchants at any time, especially the most goods from the Ming Dynasty, what silk, ceramics, tea sets and the like, I am tired of seeing it.
Nabeshima Katsushige shook his head: "Didn't they send me anything new?" Tang things are the most lacking in us, but strange things in the West are relatively rare. ”
Xiao Xiao said in a low voice: "This time, it seems to be full of strangeness." It's called Dove Silky Milk Chocolate, an unheard of name. ”
"Oh?" Nabeshima Katsushige was interested: "Come forward and take a look." ”
The little surname took a few steps forward.
Nabeshima Katsushige saw clearly now, a beautiful porcelain box, containing a small black, inconspicuous square.
"Is this thing for food?"
The little surname nodded: "Yes." ”
Nabeshima Katsushige: "It's so ugly, how can it be delicious?" ”
Xiao surname: "I don't know, and I don't dare to try it, according to the samurai who sent it, such a small piece costs two hundred and fifty taels of silver." It's too expensive for me to try it. ”
Two hundred and fifty taels?
This price frightened Katsushige Nabeshima, how small is this? Just like that, it will cost two hundred and fifty taels?
The price shook him.

The interest in trying it out is also out.
Reach out and pick up the little piece of chocolate...... Throw it in your mouth......
I don't know why a strange voice sounded in my head, shouting: "Two hundred and five!" ”
Then, the delicious taste of silky milk chocolate spreads in the mouth.
Nabeshima Katsushige had an intoxicated expression on his face: "Ah! It's delicious, it's delicious. It's really worth two hundred and fifty taels of silver, Tang Wu can always surprise me. ”
He didn't even want to chew it, but slowly "plated" the piece of chocolate in his mouth until it melted, until it was completely gone, and then reached into the box, and wanted to take a second piece.
Without!
Two hundred and five, only a small piece.
Nabeshima Katsushige: "Such a beautiful thing, only such a small piece? Who can eat such a small piece? Go and ask the samurai who sent him where he bought it, and go quickly. ”
The small surname hurriedly went, and after a while, he reported: "I got it from the small merchant of Leza in Leshi, Tsuchiya Santaro, and Tsuchiya Santaro got it from the maritime merchant Zheng who came from the Ming Dynasty." ”
Nabeshima Katsushige: "It's good to know, hurry up and buy it." ”
The little surname Fei also went, and soon after, he excitedly brought back a large number of porcelain boxes containing chocolates for Nabeshima Katsushige, and with this pile of boxes, the thousands of taels of silver of the Nabeshima family were gone.
And, in addition to this pile of chocolate boxes, he brought back more strange things.
"My lord, it turns out that there are a lot of Tang things sent this time, and there are a lot of rare things, so I bought them all for you."
The little surname took out the rare goods one by one: "Look, this is called Want Want Snow Cake, which is cheaper than chocolate, but it is also delicious." This is called Xizhilang Jelly, but it's interesting...... This is called a warm and sleepy woolen sweater, it is said that it is the top in the Ming Dynasty, and all the dignitaries and nobles over there like it......"
Soon after, Nabeshima Katsumao was wearing a warm and sleepy woolen sweater, a fragrant silk fan made by the Tujia people in Kaixian County was inserted in his waist, and he stepped on the thick carpet embroidered by Chengcheng under his feet, holding a piece of Wangwang snow cake in his left hand and a piece of Xizhilang jelly in his right hand......
I'm afraid that this day is not a fairy?
But......
It didn't take long for the "supervisor" of the Nabeshima family, and the official in charge of the property, to come to the door: "My lord, don't buy it, don't buy it, these Tang things are too expensive, and the silver of our Nabeshima family is not enough for you to spend like this, and you can't make ends meet." ”
Nabeshima Katsushige: "I've been spending money a little faster lately, but as long as I raise some taxes, won't I let those farmers make up for me?" Go for a tax increase, a tax increase. ”
The prisoner was taken aback: "It's hard to add it, the peasants are about to rebel." ”
Nabeshima Katsushige: "Afraid that they will rebel? Whoever dares to rebel will be killed. ”
The prison secretly shouted in his heart that it was not good, but the Daimyo's orders were absolute, and as a loyal samurai, even if the master was wrong, he had to do it, and this was the spirit of bushido.
The prisoner was vomiting in his heart, and Nabeshima Katsushige put a piece of Lay's original potato chips into the prisoner's hand: "Come, you can also taste Tang Wu, this is really a rare delicacy." ”
The prisoner put the potato chips in his mouth and chewed them, Kaz, delicious! It's delicious!
I can't stop at all, and I want Kazkaz to be happy.
The prisoner couldn't help but ask the surname in a trembling voice: "How much did I eat that small piece just now?" ”
Small surname: "Fifty taels." ”
The prisoner snorted, and then gritted his teeth: "It seems that my family will have to add some taxes." ”
