Chapter 11: The Rising Sun
"Boss, this kind of three-refining tungsten steel, I want five hundred catties!"
In an armory shop in Tai'an City, Wei Wu strode in and made a deal with the shopkeeper.
Wei Wu had lived in the Nine Dragons Dynasty all his life, and he could be said to have a very good understanding of the living conditions there, and the most lacking thing there was steel for making weapons and armor.
In addition to steel, the Kowloon Dynasty buys countless materials from the surrounding countries every year, all kinds of luxury goods, pearls, tea, silk and satin, of course, the most important thing for the Kowloon Dynasty is gold, as well as horses.
In the north, thousands of miles of grasslands, snow-capped mountains, the people who live there, live in the grass, have a wild temperament, and live in the Kowloon Dynasty, which is more chaotic and crazy than the Tang Empire.
Killing people and slaughtering people, often born, even the two tribes, thousands of people fighting, is also very frequent, he now knows that if the slaughter of the door tragedy is born in the Tang Empire, it will immediately be sent by the government to send a large army to suppress it and destroy the nine tribes, such as this time, the army of thousands of people besieged Funiuzhuang.
Although all the people in Funiuzhuang were forced to become robbers, this time the father and son of the Hong family, one died tragically, and the other was forced to leave his post.
There is no good result for both sides, this is the result of killing a thousand people and causing eight hundred self-damage!
"Hahaha, this brother, three hundred catties of three-smelted tungsten steel, this is a big deal, I will give you a sincere price, a minimum of nine thousand taels of snowflake silver, if you want, I will stock up immediately!"
The head of the armory shop is a ** upper body iron man, this big man put the steel ingot in his hand into the water tank next to him, stirring up a hot air, laughing, he saw that Wei Wu was just a child, but he didn't have the slightest disdain, there are too many demons in this world, and there are too many gate valve families, maybe the villain standing in front of him is a child of a big force pushed to the front, which no one can say.
"Nine thousand taels of snowflake silver? No, it's too expensive, I'll give up to seven thousand five or four thousand taels of silver, plus three thousand five hundred taels of silver tickets, if the shopkeeper is willing, I'll do this deal with you!"
300 catties of tungsten steel, if transported to the Kowloon Dynasty, even if it is the most border city, it is worth at least 200 taels of gold, that is, 100,000 taels of silver, which is more than ten times the profit.
But if you want to do this, you are risking losing your head, and the Nine Dragons Dynasty secretly communicates with the enemy, this is a major crime of collaborating with the enemy, and if you catch it, you will be skinned and deboned, and you will be cut with a thousand knives, but 100% of the profit can make the businessman take risks, and with 300% of the profit, the businessman will risk his life, not to mention that this is ten times the profit, or even more profit, no one will not be blushing.
Tianbao Qianzhuang's silver ticket, every one hundred taels withdrawn, will be given another tael, three thousand five hundred taels of silver tickets, which is equivalent to three thousand five hundred and thirty-five taels of snowflake silver.
In the Pole Sky 6, the value of silver is very strong, it is the hard currency of commodity trading, second only to gold, if these silver tickets are two years old, you can even give an extra hundred and five taels.
The Tang Empire, in addition to the royal family, the biggest usury is Tianbao Qianzhuang, which provides high-interest loans for the entire Tang Empire, sucks sperm and eats blood, and the power is so rich that it rivals the country, and even sometimes, once there is an emergency, the imperial court will also issue a royal decree to let Tianbao Qianzhuang pay the army in advance.
"This ......"
The shopkeeper put his hand in the cold water and washed it, "Your silver ticket, what year is it, if it is this year, I definitely can't agree to it, it must be more than three years, I will follow!"
for three years, that is, every hundred taels of silver, plus six taels. Three thousand five hundred taels, that is, two hundred and ten taels, plus silver, the total is seven thousand seven hundred and ten taels.
This number just made Wei Wu make a small profit.
"Okay, hahahahaha, don't worry, shopkeeper, all I give you are silver tickets for more than five years, and I promise not to let the shopkeeper suffer a loss, you see!"
Whoa!
Thirty-five silver tickets of one hundred taels Wei Wu took it out, and sure enough, the year marked on the top of each silver ticket was 'Fengwu One Year', which was the silver ticket of the new emperor of the Tang Empire in the first year.
It's exactly five years now.
"Okay, okay, this business is done, I agreed, come on, go to the warehouse, move out five hundred catties of three-smelting tungsten steel for me, and take the oldest one!"
The boss laughed, and immediately there were guys, ran to the back warehouse, and moved out a piece of ten-pound steel ingots, the oldest tungsten steel, which is the longest storage time, the most stable quality of tungsten steel, the price of this tungsten steel generally has to rise a lot.
Fifty steel ingots that shimmered with oil and shine, under the illumination of the sun, reflected a cold light like a weapon, and at a glance it was known that they were all of the best color, and each piece weighed ten pounds.
Wei Wu also smiled and nodded, and took out the remaining four thousand taels of snowflake pattern silver from the bamboo basket behind him, all of which were fifty taels of silver ingots.
There is a faint layer of dust on these silver ingots, but when you wipe them with your hands, you can clearly see the natural texture like snowflakes on them.
This is the best snowflake silver in silver!
Fifty steel ingots, placed in a large box, locked with copper locks, Wei Wu held them all up with one hand and one hand. Five hundred pounds, for a person like him, it is easy to move.
Three tungsten steel, one pound of tungsten steel, can be exchanged for thirty taels of snowflake silver, and ten taels of snowflake silver, is one tael of copper gold, it can be seen that the precious steel is not cheaper than gold!
"Little brother has so much strength!"
Wei Wu is only eleven or twelve years old, and he can hold up a weight of three hundred catties, even if he is a young man who often practices martial arts in the martial arts hall, he is also very embarrassed, and the shopkeeper is naturally well-informed and knows that Wei Wu's strength is not simple.
Wei Wu bought a horse with red dates at the city gate, tied the box, and pulled the horse out of the city gate.
Outside the city gate, people neighed on their horses, and it was very lively, and there were a total of five waves of horses walking north today, all of whom were going to the north to do business, and he could just join in.
This is the so-called foot merchant, each horse on the back, at least carrying hundreds of taels of snowflake silver goods, if the goods are less than three hundred taels, even if there is no loss of safety, the profit from selling to the land is far less than the people on the road to eat horses.
On the trade road, all the horses, except for drinking water, which can drink the spring water in the mountains, unless they go to the foot of the mountain, there is no village in front of the village, and there is no store, and all the food cannot be eaten directly from the wild grass on the ground.
After all, the weeds on the ground are likely to make the horses sick, and at least they will vomit and diarrhea, without any strength, and if they are a little heavier, they will be poisoned, foaming at the mouth, and even die.
"Hahaha, old horse head, where are you going this time, what kind of business are you going to do? I don't know if I can partner with you, let's go together, and there will be a good response on the way."
Wei Wu interspersed in the crowd, and in the crowd, a shout was transmitted, this was a red-faced man with a long knife and bow and arrows behind his back, and he was the guard leader of a horse team.
"I can't tell you this, we have written a letter of guarantee, strictly protect the privacy of the owner, don't ask, when you get to the ground, you will naturally know!"
Then in the other group of people, a slightly old laugh was transmitted, "But I can tell you, the place we went to this time is Thunder Eagle City, you old boy, you are definitely not the same road as me, so I am not afraid to say it!" Wei Wu was beside him, and when he heard this sentence, his eyebrows suddenly raised.
Thunder Eagle City, this is the Tang Empire, the most border city, in this big city, the daily stationing of the army, 30,000 ironclad troops, these 30,000 troops stationed in the city, in addition to a small number of military horses left in the city, in the vicinity of Thunder Eagle City, there are 300,000 troops, this is a semi-military castle, bullet bandits, robbers, the most important thing is to guard against the invasion of the Nine Dragons Dynasty.
But this is not the most important thing, because in this big city, there is a person, this person is a group of forces, extremely powerful, unparalleled in the world, back then, when Wei Wu was in the Nine Dragons Dynasty, he often heard the name of this person.
"Very good, I didn't have the opportunity to meet this person in my previous life, this time is just an opportunity, the legendary grandmaster figure, suave and graceful!"
Hahaha!
At this moment, Wei Wu raised his head to the sky and let out a long roar, "This senior horse, junior Wei Wuxian, this time he plans to go to Thunder Eagle City to do business, I don't know if I can join your horse team?"
Wei Wu shouted loudly, all the people, for a while, all eyes on him, some people saw Wei Wu's body, showing a sarcastic look, Wei Wu's current height is only about one meter three, not even a woman can compare, but 'big talk', want to go away to the world to do business.
It's like looking for death!
No matter how many masters there are in the caravan, once they encounter bandits on the road, no one can take care of Wei Wu, with a horseshoe whip, three strands of long hair under his chin, he glanced at Wei Wu up and down with wide eyes, and shook his head slightly, although there was no sarcastic smile on his face, but he still showed a little bit of disdain.
"This little brother, we are doing business, we are doing business with our heads pinned to the waistband of our trousers, you are not yet fifteen years old, at your age, to be honest, you should not appear here, I advise you, let's go home, practice martial arts for two more years, and then listen to the words of the elders and seniors before it is too late!"
"Little brother, we're not going to play, if we don't get it right, we're going to lose our heads, you're so small, isn't this causing trouble for us, let's go home quickly!"
All the people around, in addition to showing a sneering look, just smiled faintly and advised Wei Wu to leave here, otherwise his life would be in danger.
"Oh?"
Wei Wu nodded, his eyes looked around, "Don't worry, I don't need you to take care of me, I will protect my own, on this road, there may be a lot of people who want to kill me, but there are really not many people who can kill me, Ma seniors can be bold and rest assured, I am also this horse, this time it is completely experience, broaden my horizons!"
Bang!
Wei Wu's right foot was lightly twisted on the ground, and a cyan stone under his foot was immediately crushed in half by Wei Wu's foot, and the others didn't feel anything. But the red-faced man who spoke just now, and the horseshoe whip, saw it clearly, and both of them gasped at the same time.
Without afterburner, with the strength of their ankles, they can crush a stone, which even they can't do.
"This little brother, Brother Ma, I'm afraid they don't want to accept you, I'm Niu Wanshan, but I like you the most like a young hero, join us, the place we are going to is Jinshui City!"
Jinshui City is a big city near Jinting Lake, this big city is also a frontier city, but it is the internal city of the Tang Empire, which is quite far away from the northern Xinjiang, so he naturally won't go to that place.
The city is prosperous and the business is thriving, and it is said that there are 500,000 residents of Jinshui City every day, and there are hundreds of thousands of outsiders every day. Of course, as a big border city, the fashion of learning martial arts is very prosperous, and there are no less than 20 martial arts gyms, boxing gyms, and a large number of dart games.
Everyone is martial!
In Jinshui City, although there is no absolute master, but there are not a few real masters, and going to Jinshui City is also a good choice, but now that there is Thunder Eagle City, Jinshui City is naturally not in his consideration.
"Old Niu, you have crossed the line, this little brother chose me first!" Suddenly, the horseshoe whip roared, and then said in a gentle voice.
"Little brother, I agreed, you will join the caravan hosted by our Rising Sun Dart Bureau, you don't need to pay a penny, as long as there is trouble, you can help!"
The horse's palm whip made his eyes look, although the dart master next to him didn't understand the idea of the palm whip, but this meaning was very obvious, Wei Wu immediately ran over, snatched the reins in Wei Wu's hand, and pulled the red date horse over.
At this time, the bull paw whip smiled, shook his head regretfully, and didn't say anything more.
