"Sir, please follow me to the back for a discussion.”
The shopkeeper raised his hand to invite Gu Zhou.
"Please!"
When they arrived at the back hall, Gu Zhou only knew that he was not the shopkeeper after he introduced himself. He was Cai Chun, who had been sent by the headquarters of the De Sheng Chamber of Commerce to check the accounts.
Gu Zhou introduced himself as someone who came back from abroad. He had a special channel to get good things. This watch was only the first batch of goods. If everything went well, there might be other goods.
The two of them argued back and forth. In the end, the price of one watch was set at 400 dollars per watch, and the total price of 20 watches was 8,000 dollars.
Of which, 7,600 yuan was exchanged for 190 taels of gold.
The two of them even reached a preliminary agreement. This kind of watch could only be sold to the De Sheng Trading Company. Otherwise, Cai Chun was only willing to pay 380 yuan for a watch.
Both of them were happy with this transaction.
Gu Zhou took the first step to becoming the Ming Country's Master Dao.
As for Cai Chun, he bought 20 pieces of strange goods.
No matter what era it was, there was no shortage of rich people, especially in Yang Cheng, where there were thirteen banks.
Cai Chun did not expect to sell these 20 watches in the county town. If he brought the 20 watches to the provincial capital, Yang Cheng, Cai Chun could guarantee that they would be sold out in a day.
"Mr. Gu, this Sun Never Sets watch has exquisite workmanship and exquisite packaging that far surpasses any watch I've ever seen. I, Lao Cai, give you a guarantee. As long as you still have the goods, we'll buy as much as you sell it to De Sheng Trading Company.”
Cai Chun reminded him before he left.
Gu Zhou smiled." Don't worry, Shopkeeper Cai. This is the first time we've worked together, and it's been quite pleasant. This time, you can only be considered a scout. There are still many good things waiting for you."”
After leaving De Sheng Trading Company, Gu Tian asked in a low voice,""Gu Zhou, did you close the deal?"
"Very smooth!"
Gu Zhou held back his excitement and patted his bulging backpack. There were 190 taels of gold and 400 dollars lying quietly inside.
"20 watches, 100 plus. How much did I earn? The current purchase price of gold is about 350 yuan per gram. Now, half a catty is eight taels, one catty is 16 taels, and each tael is 37 grams. 190 taels is more than 7,000 grams. In other words, my gold will be sold for more than 2 million yuan!”
"100 yuan to earn 2 million! Nearly 20,000 times profit! No other business could have such a high rate of return!”
Gu Zhou quickly made up his mind to settle down and immediately go back to deal with this batch of gold. He would only be at ease when he got the money.
After passing by a small alley, Gu Zhou went in and opened the backpack that contained the four hundred yuan. He deliberately let Gu Tian, Gu Jun, Da Niu, and Er Gou see the four hundred yuan in the backpack.
During the process of collecting the ocean, Gu Zhou observed the expressions of the four people. Fortunately, although their eyes were shining, they were not greedy and did not seem to kill or rob.
Gu Zhou's probing was very despicable, but he had to be careful. If he wanted to use them, it might involve more money in the future. He could not gamble on the temperament of the four of them. Instead, he had to make sure that the four of them were not people who were blinded by greed.
During this process, if they were blinded by money and wanted to kill and rob, Gu Zhou could also open the space-time gate and leave at any time.
Of course, Gu Zhou did not let them see the gold.
Using 400 dollars to test the waters was prudent.
Using 190 gold taels to test the waters was a fool.
"10 yuan per person."
Gu Tian looked at the ten yuan in his palm and swallowed. This nephew of his was not short of money. He knew that Gu Zhou would give him a reward, but he did not expect him to be so generous. He directly gave him ten yuan.
"Thank you, Brother Zhou."
Er Gou smiled and put away the ocean.
Da Niu was a little used to Gu Zhou not taking the money in front of him, so he calmly put away the money.
"This…this…Brother Zhou, I don't think I did anything today. Isn't this a little too much?”
Gu Jun was at a loss. This was the first time in his life that he had seen so much money at once.
Silly boy, there are still people who complain about having too much money.
Gu Zhou smiled." Uncle Tian, Da Jun, Da Niu, Er Gou, are you interested in working for me in the future? I will definitely not treat you badly."”
Gu Tian was silent for a moment. Gu Zhou, I'll give my life to you. If you want me to go east, I won't go west.”
After leaving the escort business, Gu Tian's daily income was farming and hunting in the mountains. Sometimes, he would also take on some jobs as a guard.
Because Qingshan Town was too poor, Gu Tian could not get much benefit from Gu Dashan's identity as the clan leader.
"Brother Zhou, who else would I be with?”
Gu Zhou looked over. Before he could say anything, Ergou had already expressed his loyalty.
"If you treat me well, I'll follow you."
Da Niu was still simple-minded.
As for Gu Jun, this silly kid, he was still at a loss. However, since his father had already spoken, there was no need to ask him anymore.
At this moment, there were hurried and scattered footsteps. A soft voice sounded,"Big brother, they're right in front. I've been watching the fat sheep and haven't left yet.”
As soon as he finished speaking, more than a dozen people appeared at the entrance of the alley. They all looked like hooligans, all holding sticks. The leader had a fierce face and a large piece of his left ear was missing. He was the kind of big man who could scare children to tears.
"Yo, you're all here."
The burly man chuckled. His gaze swept across the room and landed on Gu Zhou. When he saw Gu Zhou's bulging backpack, his greedy gaze almost solidified."You guys, it's not appropriate to not leave anything behind after coming to my territory. I don't want much. Half, give me half, and I won't touch a single hair of yours.”
"Get lost! Otherwise, don't blame me for being rude!"
Gu Tian shouted coldly and then said in a low voice,
"Gu Zhou, don't trust such people. They are all greedy people. If you agree to give him half, he will ask for more.”
He was a little worried that if Gu Zhou agreed, it would be 'We are about to fight to the death, why did Your Majesty surrender first?'
Gu Zhou was not as naive as he thought. He knew very well that this kind of hooligan could not be inferred with common sense.
The burly man's fierce-looking face trembled a few times, and his eyes shone with a fierce light."You want to do it the hard way!"
"Go!"
"Humph!"
Gu Tian grunted and dashed out first. In an instant, he dodged a hooligan's stick and stepped on the hooligan's side at the same time. Then, he clenched his fingers into a fist and punched the hooligan's soft spot.
Bang!
The hooligan's eyes bulged, and he rolled on the ground in pain.
Da Niu and Er Gou also rushed out, while Gu Jun guarded Gu Zhou vigilantly.
