Great Tang Idyll - Chapter 1323
[Chapter 970]
I thought that I would wait until dawn to see the passing ships, and contact them to help pass the news. As a result, when a bonfire was held by the seaside, there were several lights in the sea, and my eyes hurt.
Suddenly there were two fewer lights in those beams, Zhang Xiaobao and Wang Juan sighed at the same time.
“What is that, why are there two lights that don’t shine?” Xiaobei asked when he was looking for the telescope in his bag.
“It’s broken.” Zhang Xiaobao explained to his sister: “The quality of the searchlight is not very good due to technology.”
“It belongs to the military ship of the Tang Dynasty. There is no such equipment on the merchant ship. Send a telegram and can be contacted now. .” Wang Juan immediately judged the ownership of the boat on the sea.
At this time, only Datang has such technology, so don’t worry about ships from other countries.
Sure enough, the telegram was sent, and a reply was quickly received. There was a gunboat and a supply ship, and they were on a regular cruise. When I saw countless fires appearing on the seaside, I took a photo. If there is no radio signal here In the past, boats would be sent down to check.
Now there is no need to worry about the danger of being hit by the reefs by the sea, and the two ships were ordered to head for the nearest lighthouse.
As long as the lighthouse is contacted, other problems will not be a problem, and a ship will be dispatched soon.
The rest of Zhang Xiaobao’s side is to wait, waiting for the big boats to gather here in a few days, ride back together, and organize the things they carry.
Passing through the territory of other people’s India all the way, naturally, they will not rush on the road empty-handed, but they will trade with the local people when they encounter them.
The way of trade is not to barter, but to buy directly, using Datang’s money, which is a hard currency. Any place that has trade with Datang is willing to use Datang’s money.
Because the merchants of Datang go elsewhere, one is to exchange goods directly with the locals at a high exchange rate, and the other is to slightly lower the price of their own goods and let the other party use Datang currency to buy them, but they rarely use Datang’s money. Buy each other’s goods.
Unless the other party’s goods are very good, such as pearls, gold and other precious luxuries.
This has a consequence, Datang’s money is very valuable outside.
Many of Datang’s low-tech but high-quality items are also exported. As long as you use Datang’s currency, you can row a boat directly to Datang.
Shopping in Datang.
Make a fortune after returning to your own country or tribe.
Powerful countries in technology and military oppression of weak countries are so direct that they do not even need to set up special trade barriers, but Datang still has export tariffs.
There are no import duties.
Don’t worry about the impact of primary products or raw materials in other places on Datang related industries.
Exports are different. Datang’s current products are of good quality and contain certain technical content. Other countries come to buy them and add an export tax.
People don’t care, they go back to their place with their things, and put this part of the tariff money directly into the cost of commodity sales, and let other buyers bear it.
Zhang Xiaobao and Wang Juan knew this, and they understood it very thoroughly. For example, their foreign luxury goods at that time, such as leather bags, were added to the country by an export tax and brought to China.
Plus an import tax, it looks expensive, but there are still people rushing to buy it.
The value of its own raw materials and working hours is not very high, the price is high because of the brand effect, it seems to have the same luxury.
His status has also improved.
Zhang Xiaobao just bought it, bought a lot of luxury goods, including yachts and planes, for professional needs.
On the other hand, Wang Juan does not wear or wear any brand items. She is specially made by someone in her family.
There is no brand on the clothes. Even if she casually pulls a piece of cloth around her neck, others will praise her for her beautiful scarf.
But not everyone can be like her. If you can’t increase the value of goods with your identity, you need to use the value of goods to improve your identity.
At present, the countries and regions that have contacts with Datang are like this. The cost of raw materials is not important, what is important is that it comes from Datang.
Xiaobei rummaged through the bag, but did not take out the telescope. What came out was a rough diamond the size of a fist, which had not been cut with a cloth.
She looked at the bonfire and praised: “It’s really cheap. It’s a big piece of diamond, and it only sells for 40 pieces. If you take it back, you can make at least 500 glass knives.”
Xiaohai next to him sighed and said, “Let you learn mathematics well. If you don’t work hard, at least 3,000 glass knives can be made from such a big piece of diamond, and if the craftsmanship is good, the number can be increased.”
“Isn’t that making a fortune?” Xiaoqiang said in agreement.
“I calculate how much a glass knife is worth.” The little man also joined in the fun.
Xu Yilong looked hot, hesitated for a moment, and discussed, “I’ll exchange 10,000 glass knives with you when I get back, okay?”
“Are you stupid or do you think we are stupid? Let’s just talk, I really thought we would use this A diamond into a glass knife?” Xiaobei questioned Xu Yilong in dissatisfaction.
“I heard you say you want to make glass knives.”
“I believe you when I heard it? Didn’t you buy two yuan too, go back and make a fortune, remember to pay back the money, 10% of the interest, calculated on a daily basis, and recalculated every day , you borrowed two hundred and twenty from us in total, and bought a lot of things, right?”
Xiaobei mentioned Xu Yilong’s loan, but Xu Yilong didn’t have any money with him, so he followed the team, eating and drinking without spending money, and trading with others. I had to borrow it from Beckham.
After borrowing 220 qian, he bought a lot of good things from the local area. After going back, after processing, the value can be increased by nearly 300 times. Now he hopes to get home soon.
“Yes, yes, 10% profit.” Xu Yilong replied, still calculating in his heart, but he couldn’t figure out how much it would be after dozens of days.
“It’s good to admit it. Let me remind you first, Brother Xiaohai, forget it. If it is a hundred days, then you need to pay more than 13,780 times the amount of 220.” Xiaobei smiled at Xu Yilong. Say.
Xu Yilong’s face was bitter, and he nodded: “It won’t take a hundred days. It’s been fifteen days since I borrowed money. As soon as I set foot on the territory of the Tang Dynasty, I will immediately find a bank to give you the money. It is estimated that it will not be used. Fifty days, just count as fifty days, how much is it?” As
he spoke, he looked at Xiao Hai.
Xiaohai frowned, found a branch, scratched it on the ground, scratched twice, shook his head, took out an abacus from his bag, beat it, and after dozens of breaths passed, said to Xu Yilong: “Fifty days. 10% interest rolling every day, which is 117.391 times.”
Xu Yilong couldn’t say anything, and extended his thumb to Xiaohai.
Zhang Xiaobao and Wang Juan also looked at their younger brother Xiaohai with relief, and if they said yes, they would too.
But not as skilled as Xiao Hai.
Not so fast either.
Of course, what makes them even more happy is that the younger brother Xiaohai is indeed very talented in mathematics, but he is not stupid, if he only has numbers and formulas in his mind all day long.
Two people will take coercive measures.
Xu Yilong heard that it took 50 days for more than 100 times, and his heart relaxed. He could bear it more than 100 times. If it was more, it would be 30,000, which was more than 13,000 times stronger than 100 days.
Although I can’t get 30,000 at home.
But you can go to the bank immediately after landing, mortgage your things, take out the money and pay them back to Xiaobei. If the price is too low, you can use your family’s credit to lend, or even let others borrow it. .
No matter how you calculate it, it is more cost-effective than owing Xiao Bei to them. The interest is really too high, and the interest is rolled over.
Zhang Xiaobao and Wang Juan didn’t care about the transactions between Xu Yilong and his younger brothers and sisters. They believed that the little guys would not specifically cheat Xu Yilong.
The time to go back must be calculated before. If it takes 100 days, the interest will definitely not be so high.
Regarding this transaction, the two of them are more happy and relieved. Are they short of money for Beckham?
There is no shortage of nature.
What I worry about now is how to make good use of the money, not to make more money, but to improve the lives of the children of Datang.
Giving Xu Yilong an interest shows that the little guys are sensible.
Directly borrow 220 qian, or give the money to Xu Yilong.
Nothing.
But then Xu Yilong lost a sense of accomplishment, and when he was in China, people in his circle would look down on him, thinking that he was taking advantage of Xiao Bei and them, not his own ability.
According to the current situation, Xu Yilong took the risk and it was his own judgment and choice. When he went back, he could pat his chest with the people in the circle and say that at such a high interest rate, he bet, he believed in his own vision.
In this way, the old man Xu Jian will also be happy.
This time, I didn’t have enough fun in the battle, but I didn’t earn much money. All the way through India, except for the tribes I had collected before, everyone else had traded with the Indians.
The method of trading is to use the money to buy local good things first, and then sell the consumables such as cans that cannot be used up in the team to the local people who have just received the money.
Anyway, if you can’t use up everything, it’s worthless to go back.
Zhang Xiaobao and Wang Juan’s team waited for six days before they could gather ships that could take them back. Some were ships that had just come out of the Tang Dynasty and were going on a long voyage for trade. They had things on board and unloaded them, leaving a few people behind. With the cooperation of the guards, they trade with the local area, so that the boat can be empty to carry Zhang Xiaobao and Wang Juan back.
There are also merchant ships that have loaded goods to return to Datang after countless days from outside. They also unloaded the goods and placed them locally. After sending Zhang Xiaobao and Wang Juan’s team back, they will make a short journey.
No compensation is offered, it is all voluntary.
Zhang Xiaobao and Wang Juan didn’t talk about state compensation either. They wrote down every merchant ship, and when they returned, they would provide some good methods or techniques for the merchant ships.
The people from the tribes who had followed the team to Tang before finally felt what it means to be a strong country at this moment.
Especially the former tribal leader Seymour Tamahe, he knew what was behind this incident. It was the cohesion of a country. If it was replaced by his own tribe or his own country, such a situation would never happen unless it was a threat of force. Otherwise, who is willing to give up their own interests easily?
“It seems that it won’t be long before Datang will take over all the places around them. At least I can see it when I’m alive. It’s really strong.” I
came to the boat and watched the people on the boat treat Zhang Xiaobao and Wang. When the people in the cuckoo team looked happy, UU read www.
