Li Er gradually realized that this situation existed.
Recently, the price of hardwood has skyrocketed in the Jiangdong area. It turns out that it is not only Sheng'er that is threatened, but the entire Jiangdong has been affected. The shortage is all-round.
Now that there's a shortage across the board, it's obvious.
Whenever hardwood appears on the market, the price will rise at the speed of light because people will inevitably compete for it.
In this scramble process, the intensity of the scramble will vary depending on the severity of the shortage.
Of course, there are more extreme situations. That is, there is no hardwood resource at all, not in the entire Jiangdong area. Then there is no competition at all. You can only find a way to contact timber dealers everywhere, or send people yourself.
Search everywhere.
But hardwood is not ordinary wood, and it must be giant hardwood, otherwise it will not be used. Why do you want it... I can only find it as hard as possible.
And this is the situation in Jiangdong now.
Then Li Er frowned.
Mud, if you are so nervous, then the price of this hardwood...
Isn’t it more awesome than what Sheng’er mentioned in casual chat?
Isn't this troublesome...
Although I seem to remember Sheng'er saying that she found some hardwood resources, but...how many are they?
There are now eleven shipbuilding factories, and they may be expanded.
If it is true, we can speculate on the price of hardwood based on the excitement of this group of Jiangdong gentry at the auction.
That……
Even if Sheng'er gets some hardwood, I'm afraid it won't help...
Is it really necessary to open up the treasury and spend a lot of money?
No, the population of the Tang Dynasty is less than 10 million now, how can we spend so much money at this time??
Trouble, trouble!...
Just when Li Er had a headache...
Suddenly, Li Er remembered something.
correct.
Five surnames and seven hopes...
Wang Jing, Li Tiancheng...
What's going on with these people now?
This group of people made such a bold move today, and soon someone came to sell the hardwood. I'm afraid they took it ruthlessly.
That……
In this case, Sheng'er will have no chance...
This great shipbuilding industry is faced with many difficulties...
Li Er couldn't help but feel dizzy. This matter was really disturbing. He subconsciously looked in the direction of Wang Jing and others...
However, this look made Li Er stunned.
He originally thought that Wang Jing and others would be celebrating this time. After all, this was the only hardwood material, and now that they had obtained it, everyone should be excited.
The result is...
But they found that Wang Jing, Pei Ji, Li Tiancheng, Cui Baihe... and others all had faces full of surprise and suspicion.
His face was pale and dumbfounded.
His eyes widened, staring at the black brocade on the high platform.
It seemed as if something terrible had been discovered and his property and life were about to be wiped out.
This weird scene.
Li Er was immediately confused and puzzled...
"Xuancheng... look over there, what's going on?"
Li Er thought about it and couldn't figure out what was going on.
How come Wang Jing and his gang were all as arrogant as fighting cocks just now?
This time, it happened in an instant.
Wei Zheng, Du Ruhui, Fang Xuanling and others took advantage of the situation and turned their heads, following Li Er's eyes.
At this moment, Wei Zheng and others were also stunned.
It really is...
It's so strange...
This strange scene immediately confused Li Er and the others, and they felt vaguely...
There must be something fishy in this matter.
But what exactly is the trick? Even after thinking about it, I still can’t figure it out...
What happened?……
…
But Li Er and others felt strange about the small group of Five Surnames and Seven Hopes.
the other side.
Wang Jing, Li Tiancheng, Cui Baihe... Pei Ji, Xiao Yu...
The fifth and seventh surnames looked at this group of people, and they themselves were confused.
This thing...
Covered with black cloth, thick and extremely long...
This is not wood, is it?
?????
Why can't we hear clearly what the people around us are saying...
this moment.
Wang Jing and others' ears seemed to be directly deaf.
The whole person fell directly into a state of complete sluggishness.
What happened...
What is this thing, what is this thing...
No, what they said is wrong, this absolutely cannot be...
yes……
yes……
At this moment, the hearts of the people with five surnames, Qi Wang, Wang Jing, and others were beating as hard as thunder.
Bang, bang, bang...
Fast and brutal.
My mind goes blank.
Be it Wang Jing or Pei Ji...
This group of people, this moment.
No matter what, I can't believe it.
What's under the black cloth.
It will be... wood!
and……
Appearing on such an occasion...
This wood is most likely still...
hardwood!
but……
How is this possible?
This is simply impossible!
The whole country, the entire Tang Dynasty.
All hardwood resources are in the hands of Wu Xing Qi Wang.
This is not the previous paper, let alone pen and ink... these small things.
Although the amount of refined iron stored is extremely large, the production capacity of refined iron depends on the population.
The population is so large, and the fine iron in the Tang Dynasty is actually not that much——
What's more, that time, what was hoarded was only refined iron from around Chang'an.
The targets of the blockade are farmers who cannot afford to travel far to find refined iron to buy.
But this time, things were completely different.
This acquisition of hardwood covers the entire Datang hardwood resources!
Only two words can describe the money, silk, gold and silver that was spent.
Sky-high price!
This astronomical amount of money has been invested in order to block those who have the ability to build big ships.
That is, those people who are also local aristocratic families, but are not qualified to compete with the Five Surnames and Seven Hopes.
Therefore, one can imagine the huge investment, which is completely different from the previous one.
But this time...
This time, Wang Jing and others were extremely convinced that the blockade was really successful.
We even sent out multiple teams of people to look around, just to prevent unexpected hardwood resources from appearing on the market and directly turning into loopholes.
And recently...
Wang Jing is even more convinced that no one has broken through the blockade on the current price of hardwood on the black market in Hangzhou.
All loopholes have definitely been sealed - otherwise why are hardwood prices so high?
But at this moment...
Under this black cloth...
No matter how you look at it, it’s all wood!
A huge piece of wood!
This impossible thing actually happened.
How could Wang Jing and others accept it? Their brains were completely blank and they couldn't move at all.
Wang Jing's face was dull, and Pei Ji's face was pale...
At this moment, the five surnames and seven people looked at all of them, completely stunned.
After thinking about it, I still can't figure out what happened...
"This is impossible...this is impossible..."
Muttering to oneself, like chanting sutras, kept resounding from the mouths of Wang Jing, Pei Ji and others, like monks chanting sutras in a temple.
But what was different from the monks chanting sutras was the murmurs of Wang Jing and others, which were frightened and horrified...
