Li Yunhao stretched his back and rode his horse to the city gate.
Outside the city wall, the Yiwu merchant Shi Yongan looked up at the tall walls of the Jade Gate Pass.
"The caravan has only left Jade Gate Pass for six days, and Li Yunhao has already built a 30-meter-high wall with that gray mud? Impossible, this was simply a tale of the night.”
Shi Yongan used his axe to hack at the gray city wall.
Bang, bang, bang ~
The axe seemed to be hacking at a solid rock, and the city wall was intact.
The partner in the caravan said to Shi Yongan.
"Li Yunhao built a 30-meter-tall city wall. You've already lost the bet with him. You might as well take the opportunity to leave now that you've lost 1000 Kunlun slaves.”
Another partner also tried to dissuade Shi Yongan.
"The Kunlun slaves are priced at four taels of silver each, so 1000 Kunlun slaves are worth 4000 taels of silver. If we leave now, we can still keep these 4000 taels of silver.”
Shi Yongan fell into deep thought. He was estimating how much profit Jade Gate Pass could bring to the caravan in the future, not the 4000 taels of silver that the other merchants had in front of them.
"Li Yunhao sells a jin of pure steel for 100 copper coins. If we resell it to the Han people, we can earn twice the price.”
Shi Yongan took a deep breath and said,"The pure steel of Jade Gate Pass has an unlimited value. I'll give 1000 Kunlun slaves to Li Yunhao as an investment."”
The merchants could not agree, but the city gate was already open.
The partner looked at Shi Yong 'an with a resentful gaze and entered Jade Gate Pass with the 1000 Kunlun slaves.
As there were too many Kunlun slaves, the soldiers in the city pulled out their weapons for safety. The archers on the city wall also raised their bows and aimed at the Kunlun slaves.
Ding!
The population of Yumen Pass has exceeded 2000. The reward is a second-year art exercise book.
"Eh, why is this exercise book wrapped in green?”Li Yunhao asked the customer service lady in his heart.
"The green package is a skill exercise book. After filling it in, you can obtain a permanent skill book.”
"Permanent skill? Was it the same as the skill book that appeared after killing the Turks?”Li Yunhao asked.
"Yes, host."
Li Yunhao put away his exercise book and went up to the city tower to meet the caravan. They began to discuss the steel brick business.
Shi Yongan drank the iced sour plum soup and placed the bet on the table.
"We haven't seen each other for six days, but Lord Mayor has built a 30-meter-tall city wall one day ahead of time. I, Shi Yongan, am completely convinced that I lost this bet.”
Li Yunhao used a brush to write the word 'accept' on Shi Yongan's bet, indicating that he had accepted the bet.
The wily Shi Yongan asked Li Yunhao in a probing tone,""I wonder if our caravan can buy cement powder for building the city wall.”
The fact that cement could build a strong city wall in just six days showed that its value was not much worse than steel bricks. Shi Yongan, a businessman who had been doing business for many years, understood this truth.
Li Yunhao replied with a smile," We're not selling cement. We're only talking about pure steel today."”
Shi Yongan was a little disappointed that he could not buy cement, but the profit from pure steel was also considerable.
"This time, we plan to buy 50,000 catties of steel bricks. I wonder if the prefect has enough in stock.”
Shi Yongan wanted to use the caravan's sales ability to tell Li Yunhao that no matter how many goods there were, they could be sold out by the Yiwu Caravan. They were a caravan worthy of cooperation.
Li Yunhao saw through Shi Yongan's thoughts at a glance.""There are 100,000 catties of steel bricks in the warehouse. Do you want to buy all of them?”
The merchant group was so shocked that their jaws dropped.”
Li Yunhao corrected him." 100 people to make steel and 500 to mine.”
The Yiwu merchant was speechless.
Buying 100,000 catties of steel bricks required more than 100 million copper coins, which was equivalent to 1000 taels of gold.
Shi Yongan pretended to be calm." The caravan didn't bring so much cash. Can we exchange it with goods?"”
Li Yunhao didn't care." There's no difference between exchanging steel bricks for money and exchanging goods. However, the price of steel bricks will double."”
Other than Shi Yongan, all the merchants disagreed.
"If the price of the steel bricks doubles, our profits will decrease.”
"Your price is too high for our caravan to accept.”
"You have to pay the original price of 100 copper coins per catty. Otherwise, our caravan won't buy it.”
Li Yunhao shrugged." First of all, only Jade Gate Pass can refine pure steel. Everyone here knows the value of steel bricks. 200 copper coins per catty is definitely not expensive.”
Shi Yongan called the merchant to the side and whispered,""Let's discuss this."
"The caravan sells at least 300 copper coins per jin of steel bricks. Li Yunhao's increase in the price of steel bricks won't affect our caravan much.
The caravan could still earn 1000 gold taels by selling 100,000 catties of steel bricks at the new price. It was also a considerable income. Li Yunhao was doing a unique business, so everyone should accept it.”
The leader of the caravan was Shi Yongan. After two sentences of his analysis, the partners 'emotions were basically appeased.
"Our caravan will buy all 100,000 catties of steel bricks. We have 800 taels of gold in cash. The rest of the payment will be replaced by the caravan's food and goods."”
Li Yunhao knew that the merchant would definitely agree. The steel brick itself had an advantage. This time, the price was doubled. Next time, he would continue to increase the price to earn more money from the merchant group.
Both sides reached a deal.
The partners began to count the number of goods and sent them to the warehouse by the soldiers of the Jade Gate Pass.
"Bring some different plant seeds to Jade Gate Pass next time," Li Yunhao said to Shi Yong 'an."We'll discuss the price again.”
Shi Yongan smiled." Our caravan is very large. Bringing a little seed won't take up much space. The governor is too distant when talking about money."”
Li Yunhao nodded." Last time, we agreed to come back to Jade Gate Pass in seven days. Why did you bring the Kunlun slaves here on the sixth day?"”
Shi Yongan suddenly remembered something important and spoke in a hurry.
"We sold 1000 Jin of steel bricks to Zhao Zheng of Liangzhou. On the way back, we heard that Chai Shao had brought 20,000 soldiers to attack Jade Gate Pass. Other than buying goods, the caravan also came to inform the prefect to prepare for war.”
If Li Yunhao didn't ask, he wouldn't have known that Chai Shao was actually thinking of attacking Jade Gate Pass. Fortunately, he had built a 30-meter-high wall in advance, so he wasn't afraid of them attacking.
"Zhao Zheng of Liangzhou will assist Chai Shao in attacking the Jade Gate Pass."”
