Text Chapter 129 Trading medicinal materials

Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    There is a smell of medicinal herbs in the air, highlighting the specialness of this area.  It wasn't just Fu Xiaowa and others who were buying things, there were also many businessmen from the Great Xi Dynasty.

    The road here is very dangerous. The nature of businessmen is to pursue profits. In order to make high profits, they are often willing to take risks and do some illegal things.

    The sun is about to set, casting its afterglow on this small village, casting a golden layer on this famous black market.

    Even though it is dark, the enthusiasm of those medicine dealers outside the customs is still undiminished. The medicinal materials they purchase outside the customs can often be bought at good prices in the black market, and they also bring a special kind of house outside the customs, a kind of leather medicine.  The tent can be moved and lived in at will. Usually they sell it for several days as soon as they come to sell it.

    Fu Xiaowa and a group of people went to the medicinal materials market. With the help of Shen Zhengming, a general outside the customs, Fu Xiaowa understood the current prices of medicinal materials and some things outside the customs.

    Outside the Pass, there are many tribes, usually nomadic people as the main body. There is still no strong tribe that can unify the region outside the Pass, so they are independent and wars are more frequent.  As a result, the Great Xi Dynasty was already stable. There were no wars and no threats at the border. There were only some small incidents of barbarians robbing the residents at the border.

    Speaking of this village corner, it is also the trading place between various tribes and the Daxi Dynasty. All major tribes abide by an unwritten rule. No one can occupy this market alone, and no war can burn here. Let this peace outside the pass  The Great Interest Dynasty's deal continued.

    Fu Xiaowa and others walked around for a few times, and they all understood the price clearly. At this time.  I saw a group of people from outside the customs arriving. According to what my Qing Gang subordinates said, this was the caravan that had made a deal with the Qing Lang Gang.

    I saw this caravan driving a carriage, and the wheels left deep imprints on the mud.  The driver was swaying from side to side as the road surface became uneven.  The goods of the two large carriages finally arrived, and the foreigners wearing colorful clothes jumped out of the car. They saw these foreigners with curly hair, full beards, and the fur coats on their bodies seemed to be about to be covered with oil.  It is said that the people outside the customs have not bathed or washed their clothes for many years.  I always smell bad.

    Having arrived, Fu Xiaowa and others went up to negotiate. When they came to these outsiders, these outsiders looked at Fu Xiaowa and others.  After hearing Shen Zhengming's introduction, he nodded frequently and babbled a lot.

    Standing relatively close to these people, Fu Xiaowa really smelled something and thought about these outsiders.  Anything can be cleaner.

    At this time, Shen Zhengming turned back and said to Fu Xiaowa: "I told them just now that you are here for trading, and they also said they knew. I was late because of something, and now the goods have arrived. You can trade.  As agreed, ginseng. One hundred catties, thirty-two taels of silver per catty, one hundred catties of deer antlers, fifteen taels of silver per catty, a total of four thousand seven hundred taels of silver!"

    Fu Xiaowa thought he heard wrong, and said, "How is it possible? Isn't the ginseng in this market thirty taels per catty, and the velvet antler only twelve taels per catty?"

    Shen Zhengming nodded and said: "That's right, but we don't rule out the huge fluctuations in market prices. However, the price difference is indeed too huge. I think, Xiaowa, you'd better buy it from someone else. You can save a lot of silver!"

    "But, we made a deal!" Fu Xiaowa said awkwardly.

    Shen Zhengming said: "This is a black market, Xiaowa, you have to know that there is no law in this place. Even if there is a contract, it will not be effective, let alone an agreement!"

    Fu Xiaowa said: "Can you help me ask if the price can be lower?"

    Shen Zhengming turned around and chatted with the businessman for a while, then turned around and said: "I told him, and he said that it really couldn't be done because when he purchased it, the price was very high. I don't know how the market price was affected.  Suddenly the price of medicinal materials plummeted. If you sell it at that price, he will lose a lot. He also asked you to buy it from other stores. He said to sell it for a few days and see if you can wait until the price rebounds!"

    At this time, the gang members next to him also responded: "Yes, Hall Master Fu, this can save a lot of money. Hall Master Qiao will be happy when we go back and it will bring us great benefits. Maybe you can still spend time with her."  **, haha!¡±

    These gang members were rough guys, telling dirty jokes as if they were commonplace. Fu Xiaowa frowned. At this time, another group of businessmen from the Daxi Dynasty also arrived. It seemed that they had also agreed on a deal. The leader was a handsome man.  Extraordinary life is indeed a rare handsome man in the world. Even the women outside the customs, whose aesthetics are completely different, are chatting and laughing, and their thick eyebrows are imitating the charm of a big woman.

    At this time, a man who looked like a butler came back from the conversation and reported to the scholar: "Master Jiang, this is much higher than the price we agreed on. Ginseng is thirty-two taels of silver per pound, and the black market price is thirty-two taels. Look.  Come on, let¡¯s buy it from others!¡±

    Hearing this, the scholar named Mr. Jiang nodded and said, "Okay, you apologize to the boss and said weYou can only buy it from someone else!  "

    "Yes, sir!" The housekeeper stepped forward to negotiate for a while, and the boss outside the customs also nodded, apparently understanding.

    At this time, Fu Xiaowa and others, together with Mr. Jiang and others, came to the nearby seller. Shen Zhengming stepped forward and asked about the price. He spoke fluently in Guanwai dialect, but he saw that the boss selling medicinal materials was different.  He was very neat and tidy, with a beard on his face, and had the air of a man outside the customs. However, he spoke the language of the Great Xi Dynasty, but it was not very standard. The boss said: "I understand the language of your Great Xi Dynasty, and I can use your language."  comminicate!"

    Shen Zhengming said, it is rare for him to see a foreigner who can speak a lot of words. He smiled and said: "That would be much simpler. Businessmen from outside the country like you who can speak a lot of words are really rare!"

    I saw the boss also smiled and said: "It's better to do business with you, the people of your Daxi Dynasty. I spent a lot of effort to learn it!"

    Fu Xiaowa said happily: "That's great. Boss, how do you sell this medicinal material?"

    "The market price is 29 taels per catty for ginseng and 12 taels per catty for deer antlers. What do you think?" The boss spread his hands and looked left and right at Shen Zhengming and Fu Xiaowa.

    This price is even lower than the market price. The boss has a big business and has a lot of medicinal materials. At this time, Mr. Jiang¡¯s butler next to him came forward and said: "Boss, if we want it, sell it to us. We have ordered all the medicinal materials."  Got it!"

    Shen Zhengming said unhappily: "We came first, why should you insist on first come first served!"

    Mr. Jiang bowed and said, "I wonder if I can give it to us, we need a lot of it!"

    Fu Xiaowa scratched his head and said with a smile: "Actually, I just asked the price, you can take it!"

    Mr. Jiang thanked him and said, "Thank you in advance, Mr. Jiang!"

    Fu Xiaowa took the angrily Shen Zhengming and left with his men. He saw that Mr. Jiang and others had reached an agreement with the boss, and the price had been negotiated and the transaction had begun. Soon, the payment for the goods was cleared.

    Shen Zhengming was quite angry. He said: "Little frog, don't worry, I can buy you a cheaper one!"

    "Don't" Fu Xiaowa was about to speak, but Shen Zhengming had disappeared into the market.  ````````
