"Tell me," Zhao Jin didn't want to talk nonsense to them anymore, and asked directly: "How much do these glazed jewelry cost?"
Underneath the calm voice, there seemed to be a storm lurking.
No matter how dull the blue-eyed foreigner is, he will still notice something is wrong.
Not only did this young man not seem to be interested in their things, he looked more like he was here to cause trouble.
To be precise, they sent it up.
Thinking of this, the blue-eyed foreigner felt like crying, and said with a bitter face: "One tael of silver, one tael of silver will do it."
Zhao Jin looked a little shocked.
Although he initially revealed that the colored glaze sold by foreigners at high prices was just worthless sand.
However, there was little information in ancient times, and it was difficult to learn the news from other places unless you were willing to investigate.
He spread the word about it, but only a few people knew about it.
If everyone wants to know, it will probably take some time.
Is it because these two people knew about it and were frightened by him that they didn't dare to deceive him at will?
Zhao Jin paid attention to the expressions of the two men and did not speak.
Unexpectedly, his shocked expression just now misunderstood the two foreigners opposite him.
The green-eyed foreigner cried: "Sir! We really didn't lie to you! These are real colored glazes!"
Zhao Jin was puzzled, "Of course I recognize these are colored glazes."
"Don't you think we lied to you?" The green-eyed foreigner's eyes lit up and he asked quickly.
"No." Zhao Jin glanced at him, pointed at the glazed jewelry and asked, "I'm just curious as to why you sell them so cheaply."
The blue-eyed foreigner was the first to say: "We have always paid this price. These colored glazes are made from sand."
As if he was afraid that Zhao Jin wouldn't believe it, he said again with an emphasis on his tone, "Really! Don't believe it!"
"Those who sell hundreds or even thousands of taels are the ones who are cheating you!"
Hearing this, Zhao Jin's coldness dissipated a lot, "I know."
In an instant, the green-eyed foreigner vaguely understood where Zhao Jin's coldness came from, and hurriedly explained: "Sir, the things we sell are all at real prices, and there is definitely no exaggeration at all!"
Zhao Jin responded lightly, but it was because of his inherent concepts that he had preconceived ideas.
Suddenly, Zhao Jin's eyes froze slightly.
"Master, do you still want this glass?" the green-eyed foreigner asked tentatively.
Zhao Jin turned his head slightly and pointed at a red crystal stone above and asked, "Is this a crystal?"
Following Zhao Jin's line of sight, both of them's eyes lit up.
"The young master has really good taste. This is the best jewelry we have here. The top-grade red crystal is absolutely natural."
Zhao Jin directly reached out and took off the red crystal.
The red crystal is small, polished into a diamond shape, passed through with thin beads, and decorated with snow-white tassels below.
The colors match well, but the red crystal, pearls and tassels are so connected that Zhao Jin can't even see where this thing can be decorated.
He held the red crystal between his two fingers and played with it.
"How much does this cost?"
With a smile on his face, the blue-eyed foreigner stretched out three fingers and said, "Thirty taels, thirty taels of silver will do it!"
Zhao Jin paused. The price... was so cheap that he was surprised.
He put the red crystal in his arms and took out thirty taels of silver and gave it to them.
The two of them were overjoyed. They had been in Zhao for so long and had never done such a big business!
"Are you interested in going to Yunzhou City?"
The green-eyed foreigner put the silver in his mouth and bit it. His face was so happy that he couldn't hold it back. When he suddenly heard Zhao Jin's question, his face fell.
"Sir, it's not that we don't want to go to Yunzhou City."
Yunzhou City is the seat of Yunzhou County, so it is definitely more prosperous than Jingshan County.
However, "There are too many foreigners in Yunzhou City."
"Yes." The blue-eyed foreigner also looked frustrated, "Besides, we have to cooperate with those foreigners, and they look down on us."
If you don't cooperate, you will be squeezed out by them and it will be even harder to survive.
Furthermore, they really don't want to cheat with those people.
"Then how about taking refuge in me?" Zhao Jin looked away from the red crystal and asked, "I can help you gain a foothold in Yunzhou City, but you have to listen to me in the future."
Zhao Jin paused and glanced at the simple shelves in their hands, "How much can you earn every month?"
The blue-eyed foreigner scratched his face and raised a finger awkwardly.
"One hundred taels?" Zhao Jin raised his eyebrows, but that was barely enough.
The blue-eyed foreigner shook his head, finding it difficult to express that number, "Ten taels."
The green-eyed foreigner next to him slapped his companion's outstretched finger away, and asked with a somewhat rapid breath: "Sir, if we work for you, how much money can we make every month?"
Zhao Jin looked at them, "A hundred times more powerful than you are now."
hundred times!
The green-eyed foreigner said without hesitation, "Okay!"
The blue-eyed foreigner still couldn't come to his senses. A hundred times, wouldn't that be a thousand taels of silver?
"Okay!" Zhao Jin said with a smile in his eyes, "Someone will come to you when the time comes. Just follow him to Yunzhou City."
This trip actually solved the problem that had been bothering him.
If Zhao Jin wants to do overseas business, he must deal with foreign businessmen.
But he really didn't want to cooperate with the Xiti group in Yunzhou City, so Zhao Jin had been worrying about which foreign businessmen to use.
Although these two blue-eyed foreigners don't look very clever, they are both honest.
"Okay, okay!" The blue-eyed foreigner was overjoyed.
After Zhao Jin separated from the two of them, he walked around again and stopped at a teahouse, drinking and listening to a book while waiting for Xu Qi and Takeda to come.
The first person to come over was Xu Qi.
"Master." Xu Qi saw that there was only one person around Zhao Jin, "Where is Takeda?"
"Let him inquire about something." Zhao Jin put down the tea cup in his hand.
"Have you found a good place?"
Xu Qi nodded.
"Then let's wait until Takeda comes back."
Nearly an hour later, Takeda strode into the teahouse.
Xu Qi waved to him, and Takeda walked over quickly, "Master."
"How is it?" Zhao Jin raised his hand and clicked on the left side and asked.
Takeda sat down on the left side of Zhao Jin and took a swig of a cup of tea, attracting dissatisfied looks from the tea drinkers around him.
He didn't care. He panted slightly and lowered his voice and said: "My subordinates have inquired about it and found out that the reputation of this county magistrate is very good. There are almost no people who have any objections to him."
"My subordinates even went to a village and praised the county magistrate highly."
After taking a breath, Takeda continued: "Moreover, even in the surrounding small villages, they can barely feed themselves."
Hearing this, Zhao Jin had a plan in mind.
In ancient times, it was not easy to have enough food and clothing.
Even in the early days of the founding of the People's Republic of China, the problem of food and clothing was troubled for a period of time until the advent of hybrid rice.
"Let's go." Zhao Jin took a final sip of tea, "Go to the county government office."
