Charlie Goff and Ji Dabao were also very busy during this period, mainly busy with two things. One was to move the British East India Company's store from Anping Town in Taiwan to Dahao Town in Chaozhou. In the future, the British East India Company's business focus in China will be moved to Chaozhou.

The second is to be busy with shipping and purchasing - sending out a batch of Damingchun wine, and at the same time, sending out some orders to purchase Guta gum, arabic gum and hot turmeric oil.

The American natural rubber that Zhu Hezang wanted would not be able to be done for a while. However, there are ways to get gutta glue, arabic glue and tinder oil.

Guta rubber comes from Nanyang. After burning, it can be applied on linen to make a rainproof cloth. In fact, it is a type of natural rubber and can also be used to make vulcanized rubber. However, the vulcanized rubber made of Guta rubber is very hard and does not have much elasticity, so it cannot be made of rubber bands.

Gum arabic is produced in India and the Arabian Peninsula, and is also a kind of gum. It has a wide range of applications, mainly added to various beverages and candies, which can thicken, bond and stabilize the aroma. It can be used as a binder for sweet gunpowder, stabilize the fragrance of perfume and thicken the strong tinder oil. This is really a good thing for both military and civilians!

Fierce turmeric oil is actually light oil, produced on Borneo and Sumatra, so it is not difficult to obtain.

By the end of February, a batch of gum arabic and turbulent oil in the Macao warehouse of the British East India Company had been transported to Dahao, and a batch of Damingchun wine was sent to Macau.

In addition, Charlie Goff also received instructions from the British East India Company General Store in Macau to try to find out the secret of "hard gunpowder" and negotiate with the newly established Ming Jieyang court of the Ming Dynasty to "monopolized free trade".

This made Charlie Goff and Ji Dabao a little embarrassed... The Jieyang court was in power with a group of original Confucian scholars who looked unreasonable, and they also had the East Factory perfume that could be exchanged for Charlie Goff for title!

He is not willing to delay his future for the sake of the company's interests, but his superiors always have to be perfunctory.

After all, his senior class is a senior class on the mainland, not a senior class on the boat. If he has to bring perfume back to Europe to "dedicate treasures", the company has to send a ship!

So when Zhu and Chan, Scar Rong and Eunuch Pang arrived at Hao to "inspection" together, they were still in a dilemma!

I heard that the prince who was in power came to Dahao, and Charlie Goff and Ji Dabao dared to neglect it. I immediately took the carriage and samples to the Qiu family courtyard where Zhu Heying was staying.

Zhu Heying, Scar Rong and Eunuch Pang were very politely greeted each other at the second gate of the villa, and invited a half foreign friends into the second hall of the villa, which was fragrant.

When Charlie Goff's eyes shone brightly when he smelled the fragrance! Before he could sit down, he asked, "Oh, this must be Dongchang Xiang?"

"That's right, this is the secret Dongchang Xiang made by the Dongchang factory." Of course, the answer was Elephant Pang, the governor of the Dongchang factory!

"Dongchang Xiang", of course it is secretly made by Dongchang!

After both sides sat down, Charlie Goff couldn't wait to ask again: "Governor, how many kilograms of Dongchang Xiang did you bring this time?"

"Fifty kilograms!" Eunuch Pang stretched out a slap, "It's hard for you to use it for a whole year."

"Fifty kilograms are..." Charlie Goff's mathematics was obviously not very good, and he couldn't figure it out at once, so he looked at Ji Dabao.

Ji Dabao will be fine soon, "Fifty pounds are eight hundred taels. According to the previously agreed price of one tael of silver and two taels of water, it is worth four hundred taels of silver!"

Charlie Goff was overjoyed and immediately said to Zhu Heyan: "Your Majesty, I have already obtained some hot tincture oil and gum arabic for you... The value is more than 400 taels of silver, reaching 1,200 taels. You still need to give me the Great Mingchun wine worth 800 taels. Can we exchange it immediately?"

Very urgent!

There is a chance!

Zhu Heying smiled and said to Charlie Goff: "It's easy to say... Damingchun wine is okay, right?"

"It's okay." Charlie Goff smiled, "It's just a little more expensive... It would be even better if there were some low-end Da Chun wine."

"Low-grade Mingchun?" Zhu Hetang looked at Scar Rong in a fake way - this wine was theoretically purchased from Chaozhou countryside.

"This is easy to deal with," Scar smiled, "just add more water to new wine, you can do it if you spend a few hundred bucks."

"That's great!" Charlie Goff was very satisfied and asked with a smile, "Your Prince, Your Excellency the Factory, our East India Company hopes to get the exclusive agency rights of Dongchangxiang in markets outside China... If you can agree, we can guarantee that one thousand kilograms of Dongchangxiang will be underwriting every year!"

One thousand pounds of perfume is a big deal! One pound is worth eight taels of silver, and one thousand pounds is eight thousand taels!

Moreover, the net profit of perfume is high, and the transaction of 8,000 taels will be at least 7,500 taels!

In addition, the aromatic essential oils used to prepare perfumes are not easy to extract, and they cannot be solved without a certain chemical foundation and skills. Therefore, Zhuhezhi can easily form a technical monopoly... Those Westerners cannot reach the level of Zhuhezhi without a hundred or two years of exploration.

Therefore, Zhu Heting can completely close his eyes and engage in monopoly. He is not afraid of Europeans copycats, nor is he afraid of them in anti-monopoly.

So this perfume is a trump card in Zhu Heying’s hands!

"Exclusive agent?" Zhu Heying smiled, "Mr. Goff, I know you Westerners are very scented and don't like to take a bath... What emperor, pope, king, queen, grandpa, you smell smelly. The fragrance of Dongchang is so suitable for them! One thousand pounds are probably not enough for them, right? This thing is expensive! You spend 8,000 taels of silver to buy one thousand pounds, and when you go to Europe, you have to sell it for tens of thousands of gold? Such a huge profit is still monopolized by you. Is this appropriate?"

Charlie Goff thought to himself: "You, the Eastern king, know very well about Europe. Even the big Europeans don't like taking a bath and they're very bad... This is not easy to deal!"

While he was thinking about it, Ji Dabao had already answered the question for him: "It's appropriate, it's so appropriate... Mr. Goff is the prince's friend, and he is also a friend of the Ming Dynasty. He has always supported Prince Yanping's mansion and Prince's rebellion against the Qing Dynasty and restored the Ming Dynasty!"

Zhu Heying smiled and asked Charlie Goff: "Really? Mr. Goff, do you really support me in the fight against the Qing Dynasty and restoration of the Ming Dynasty?"

"Really, really!" Charlie Goff nodded repeatedly. His mind was also very fast. Of course, he already knew why Zhu Heting said these words to him.

This is something he wants to exchange with the exclusive agency of perfume!

Zhu Hezang said, "Since that's the case, I can ask you for a little help, right?"

"Please say, please say." Charlie Goff was not in a hurry to agree, but asked Zhu Hetong to open the conditions.

Zhu Hezang smiled and said to Charlie Goff: "Mr. Goff, you should know that the Qing Dynasty King Shang Kexi has personally led a large army to Mianhu Village? Now Guangzhou Prefecture is empty, so we plan to attack Guangzhou by water. But I heard that the old thief Shang and the Macau Portuguese have a good relationship. Once our fleet approaches the Humen, the Portuguese warships will attack from Macau. Their warships are still very powerful, and they may break the plan of this prince.

Therefore, I want to ask the armed merchant ship of the British East India Company to protect it. I know that the relationship between your England and Portugal is very strong. The Portuguese Macau will never dare to attack the ships protected by your British East India Company. I am right?"

It's really right!

The friendship between the Kingdom of Portugal and the Kingdom of England has a long history and has been tested by blood and fire.

In the decades when the Portuguese Kingdom was annexed by the Spanish Kingdom in history, England was the only one who supported the restoration of Portugal in the entire Europe.

Therefore, after Portugal was restored, England gained the power to freely enter and exit the overseas territories of Portugal. The Kingdom of Portugal also gave the colonies on Mumbai and Ceylon as the dowry of Princess Catherine to King Charles II of England.

Charlie Goff thought for a while and said, "Criminal, I can meet your request. However, our British East India Company ships will not participate in any offensive operations against the Qing army fortress and fleet at Humenkou!"
