Chapter 89 Not afraid of dying
Wu Qi naturally knew that this boy was greedy.
He sighed deliberately.
"Governor Zhang has placed a big order, how could you not know about it?"
"Today, high-grade iron ore is difficult to obtain!"
"In order to get enough money for his sword, my fine iron farm tools business is almost going bankrupt."
"These 20,000 kilograms of smelted iron were originally intended to be kept by Shen Lin to make horse armor."
"If you have food, it will be easier for you."
hiss!
Damn it, using fine iron to make horse armor is too wealthy, right?
You know, Zhang Fengqi's heavy cavalry.
The armor and horse armor are all made of cast iron.
The armor for both men and horses weighs almost one hundred and forty kilograms in total.
The requirements for war horses are too high.
The labor cost is even twice the material price.
It took Lao Zhang several years to arm three thousand cavalry.
He can't even use fine iron.
Shen Lin, this bastard's servant, is actually dressed in fine iron tools?
Zhuang Mingyang was filled with envy, jealousy and hatred.
Bought!
I'll buy them all for you.
It makes it impossible for you to make horse armor.
"Okay, I want it."
"Ship it right away!"
"Let's unload the food here!"
Wu Qi exclaimed.
"I'll go get 40,000 dans of wheat!"
"You are going too far, why don't you send it to Shenjiabao?"
"We? How long will it last?"
Wu Qi was a little confused...
Even if a 10,000-dan grain ship enters the Lushui River, it won't run aground, right?
Could it be?
Are you kidding us on purpose?
What about playing tricks on others?
Zhuang Mingyang suggested something.
"Brother, if we didn't check the Liu family in Taiyuan Prefecture this time, it's considered a secret operation!"
"You kid, you're talking like a guard. Don't go out and talk nonsense."
"I'm unloading it in Lushui Bay, who cares? Turn around and give some instructions to the people behind you."
Wu Qi repeatedly promised.
Only fools talk nonsense.
Everyone gets rich and everyone gets what they need!
The navy moves very quickly.
Thousands of people are unloading the ship together, can it be faster?
Shen Lin looked at the busy crowd and suddenly made a decision in his heart.
"Lao Qi, go and ask Zhuang Mingyang about the remaining 70,000 dans of grain."
"Let's exchange all the refined iron for him and ask him if he can do it?"
"However, I have to owe the money first, and I'll pay twenty thousand catties a month."
"That's ten thousand taels of silver."
Several people around him were immediately stunned.
Eat all 110,000 dans of food?
God, this is too exaggerated.
Where can we fit it in our current warehouse?
Wu Qi almost jumped up and even reached out to touch Shen Lin's forehead.
"Oh my, don't you have a fever?"
"Brother, you now support three hundred servants, and more than one hundred members of the Lin family are also entrusted to you."
"Even the workers in the workshops and the mines, all the labor combined."
"It's only seven hundred."
"Not counting livestock, your family cannot eat more than three thousand tons of grain a year."
"Good guys, the wheat traded now will be enough for you to eat for ten years, okay?"
"You still want to buy it?"
The red lady pouted her little mouth and said in disdain.
"Chu'er is not here. No one is looking after you. Are you drifting?"
"Ten years of eating? Will the wheat still rot?"
The third uncle and Liang Zizhong were about to speak but stopped.
never mind.
The seventh master and the red lady have said everything that needs to be said.
Shen Lin looked up at the sky, he had a big plan.
I went to Guojiang last night and grabbed a wave. Is it inflated?
of course not.
He just felt that troubled times were coming.
If you have the ability, you should do more.
"You guys, didn't I tell you earlier that if you save food, you will definitely make money?"
"Whether you sell it or keep it for yourself, isn't it up to us?"
"One tael of silver per load of new wheat."
"After passing this village, there is no such shop. Don't you understand?"
"Isn't it just ten refined iron?"
"Who are we selling and not selling?"
"Wouldn't it be easier to talk to a super big customer? Let's refine it for him slowly!"
Needless to say, it is indeed much more cost-effective than doing it piecemeal.
Fine iron can be purchased at five hundred cents per pound.
In fact, it has been very profitable.
Wu Qi looked up at the sky like Shen Lin and said for a long time.
"Then, this time, my share will be converted into grain, okay?"
"The rabbit still has to dig three holes!"
Shen Lin laughed and cursed angrily.
"That's a cunning rabbit with three holes. He is ignorant and useless all day long!"
"If you save money, you won't be able to give birth to cubs. Of course, it's better to save food."
"Go and ask immediately!"
Zhuang Mingyang heard Wu Qi's intention.
He was also shocked from ear to ear by Shen Lin's generosity.
Of course he understands that there is profit in saving food.
but.
If war really breaks out and the roads become unstable, fine iron may be more precious than food.
After all, Dazhou does not produce much refined iron every year.
His dealer has a boat.
Where can’t I get food?
But Jingtie, that's not what he wants to do.
It can be obtained in large quantities.
Ten smelting iron, just knock it out, it will be a sophisticated standard weapon.
He believes that other partners in this operation.
You would rather have refined iron than silver or grain, right?
Food takes up too much space, and the target is too big.
140,000 kilograms of fine iron is just over a thousand loads.
Which big ship under his command cannot be taken away casually?
"Do you want to pay in installments?"
"It's only 20,000 kilograms per month. Isn't it a little less?"
Nothing like you.
Wu Qi pointed at Zhuang Mingyang's nose and cursed.
"Boy, don't you be dissatisfied?"
"How many ironworks are there in the Northland? How much refined iron is produced in a year?"
"If you go fishing with money, you can get 20,000 jins in half a year. I guess you are good at it."
"Are you worried? Others have opinions?"
"Damn it, your surname is Zhuang, you have a big family and a big business."
"You can't afford to pay tens of thousands of taels of silver in advance?"
"If you want fine iron, let them wait."
Zhuang Mingyang had his own plans.
This is fine iron, but he may not be willing to give it away.
Just like Wu Qi said, he might as well share the money with others!
My own home is the gatekeeper.
Fine iron means excellent weapons.
Who dislikes having too many weapons?
My brain is soaked with water!
Counting with his fingers, Zhuang Mingyang's face was filled with uncertainty.
"The delivery time cannot exceed three months."
"Otherwise, I would rather not do this business."
"By the way, there are still two thousand tons of salt. I'll give you a discount and the price is five thousand taels of silver."
"A total of 150,000 jins of refined iron, how about 50,000 jins per month?"
"If you can do it, I'll unload the goods immediately!"
Wu Qi made two more trips.
Both sides gritted their teeth and stamped their feet, and finally did it cruelly.
Three poles in the sun.
On the beach of Lushui Bay.
The food was piled up like a mountain.
Zhuang Mingyang took three IOUs signed by Wu Qi and Shen Lin.
Sailing to the east, he didn't worry about these two gentlemen defaulting on their debts.
Anyway, every 50,000 kilograms of refined iron is sent.
He just returned an IOU.
No one planned to tamper with this transaction.
Shenjiabao warehouse, canteen, and empty courtyards in front and back.
Almost all are filled with food.
I was busy until dark, and finally it was done.
Next, it is time to start building a special grain depot.
At the dinner table, Shen Lin laughed happily.
"See how you can't speak!"
"Don't worry, we people don't need to eat food that has been moldy for 20 or 30 years."
"I plan to take in orphans on a large scale, regardless of gender."
"Master, I want to open a free store."
"School for Ten Thousand People."
