When talking about this holy iron, Wang Jing and others were very excited.
That's right.
After the recent trade with the Tubo people, they have hoarded a wave of iron weapons.
This time, the prices of these ironwares have risen even higher.
It's higher than the craziest time before.
In the past, when the price of fine iron was the most outrageous, it did not exceed one hundred guan.
But this time, because...
They calculated correctly that the Tubo people would definitely buy iron weapons at any cost.
So as middlemen, they naturally also...
In short, we know that the Tubo people have no other channels to obtain holy iron except their five surnames and Qiwang.
Therefore, they were in a hurry to purchase. In just a few days, they directly raised the price of fine steel to 200 to 300 yuan.
Now it's even more exaggerated...
Real price to gold.
And this seemingly outrageous phenomenon is not outrageous at all in the eyes of the members of the Five Surnames and Qiwang who know the inside story - at least part of the inside story.
First of all, this steel is indeed as sharp as clay.
Even in the past, when the quality of ironware was judged based on pig iron and wrought iron, the price was never lower, and they were all priceless items - otherwise, they would not be collected in Lingyan Pavilion.
These steels are real treasures.
Of course, for a sword to be extremely valuable, it is not enough to cut iron like clay, it must also be sufficiently scarce!
Things are rare and valuable!
If it's not rare enough, the price won't go up.
For example, the steel utensils, farm tools, etc. sold by Li Erguan Office.
You may say whether the quality of these things is high or not, they are high, but the prices are not very high.
Even at second-tier dealers outside the government offices, the price will increase by 20 to 30%.
Li Er, this foolish king, really has an unlimited supply...
And if you want these things to sell at a high price, they shouldn't be too widespread.
This is also a key reason why many aristocratic families deeply hate Li Er's steelmaking.
If you are riding a horse, you can make steel. Why is your production capacity so high?
Your production capacity is so high and so stable, so how do people speculate on prices and profit from it?
What a fool!
That’s right, it’s Hunjun!
But this time, I finally got the chance.
Haha, Li Er's "conceding profits to the people" was as fierce as a tiger, but now he finally showed his weakness.
Let’s just say that such good steel should not and cannot be supplied in unlimited supply.
How is it now?
Most of the world's fine steel went to Tubo, and the rest was hoarded by everyone with huge sums of money.
The key is that this fine steel has become scarce from now on!
After all, it's out of print.
Since it is out of print, it should be sold at any price!
Therefore, from the moment Li Er announced that the outflow of standard steel was strictly prohibited, Wang Jing and others had already determined that there was absolutely no way that this steel could truly have an unlimited supply.
sooner or later!
There will be restrictions.
Take a look now.
No, the restrictions are coming!
Hahahahaha!
It's simply hilarious.
At this time, the external sales have been completed and the own hoarding has also been completed.
What to do with the rest of the day?
All that's left is to pick up money.
dull!
How can this not be a celebration?
So, that night, there was a beautiful scene of singing and dancing in the mansion in the south of the city...
"Brother Wang, drink some more, drink some more!"
"Okay, okay! Drink again! Hahahahahaha!"
Drinking and singing!
happy!
Wuhu!
A few old men were singing and dancing among countless beautiful dancers, they were as happy as gods.
What kind of medical fairy?
No need, really no need.
Everyone is about to become immortals themselves, and they are still looking for some idiotic medical immortal.
White standard steel, this is the best medicine!
The gloom of the past few days has long been gone.
but……
Just when Wang Jing was about to drink another glass, he suddenly found that there was no wine in the jug.
So he turned around and called out, "Let's serve the wine!"
"Serve me more wine! No... serve me more wine!"
"Haha, brother Wang, you want to be the emperor!"
Wang Jing felt like he was about to ascend to heaven at this moment, but even if he said the word "I", the other old men didn't pay attention at all.
I saw Wang Jing sneer!
"hehe!"
"As for Li Er, the foolish king, on that dragon chair, he...he can sit on it, but I, Wang Jing, can sit on it, but can't I?"
"When this time passes, and I wait for the five surnames and Qi Wang to recover, it will only be a matter of time before Li Er is defeated. Then everyone, including me, can sit on the dragon chair!"
"What is a world of great harmony? This is what it means to be happy with the people, hahahahahaha!"
"well!"
"Brother Wang said it well, His Majesty Li Er is happy with the people, hahahahahahaha!"
At this moment, a servant hurriedly walked into the courtyard.
Then he held something in his hand and handed it to Wang Jing.
Wang Jing turned around to get the wine, but when he stretched out his hand, he found...
It was not a drink, but a letter.
Wang Jing didn't really react for a moment, he was stunned and said, "What is this? Where is the wine?"
"Wait, why are you delivering the wine?"
The person who came was none other than Wang Jing’s old housekeeper!
I saw that the old housekeeper looked nervous at this moment, and the hall was completely dark, as if he was very frightened.
He said in a trembling voice, "Master, this is... this is the book... letter sent by Mr. Pei..."
"Brother Pei? Letter?"
When Wang Jing said this, everyone looked over curiously.
"What's wrong, Brother Wang, a letter from Brother Pei?"
"Yeah, why didn't Brother Pei come today?"
"I just said it's strange, it turns out that Brother Pei didn't come today!"
"Brother Pei, why don't you come?"
Wang Jing drank a lot, took the letter with some confusion, and then looked at the housekeeper strangely.
"I asked you to invite Brother Pei, what happened to him?"
"Master...Master Pei, he is sick..."
"Sick??"
Wang Jing was stunned.
Recently...haven't everyone been in full swing again?
Why...Brother Pei is sick again??
It shouldn't be...
Confused, Wang Jing opened the letter.
The other people also gathered around curiously at this time.
"What did Brother Pei say?"
"Brother Pei, why are you calling me Master! If Brother Pei hadn't figured out the general trend for us, how would we have the chance to become rich today?"
"What Brother Cui said is true!"
"You're so right! Brother Pei is the eternal god!"
"Tomorrow we must prepare a big gift and go visit Brother Pei in person!"
"Don't worry, take a look and see what Brother Pei says first!"
soon……
Wang Jing read out the contents of the letter.
"Recently...the Forbidden Army found more than ten pieces of...iron...iron meteorites?!"
After seeing the first sentence, several people were stunned for a moment.
The originally rosy and shiny complexion turned pale at a speed visible to the naked eye.
Look at each other...
At the same time, he saw the fear in the other person's eyes.
Bang!
At this moment, a maid seemed to sense something and nervously broke a pot of wine.
He knelt down on the spot and watched several old men crazily kowtow to apologize.
However……
Wang Jing and others did not notice this maid at all.
