In the view of Wang Jing and others, the situation they are facing now is an out-and-out dead end.
There is no chance of a comeback!
Most of the merchant ships that went out to sea were robbed, so it would be very difficult to do this business.
Pei Ji actually said that this matter is not that serious. Isn't this nonsense?...
Thinking about this, everyone was full of questions.
But then Pei Ji persisted and said,
"Everyone, I'm not the only merchant ship buying exotic goods from overseas. Although the pirates are robbing fiercely, China still has to buy so many things, so there is a gap, and the supply exceeds demand..."
"Sooner or later, the price will rise even higher. Although the risk will be great and the cost will be high, as long as the price can skyrocket, why can't this business be done?"
…
Pei Ji is, after all, the think tank of the Five Surnames and Qiwang group.
After all, his structure and IQ are not comparable to those of ordinary people.
Although Pei Ji has never heard of the theory of supply and demand, this time...
But Pei Ji still saw the turning point of the matter!
That is the upward trend of prices, which will not stop easily!
And indeed, as Pei Ji said...
Most of the merchant ships that go out to sea may be damaged, but the probability is that one-third of the merchant ships will be able to return with their goods.
But as long as the price rises more than three times, why can't we make money?
Thinking of this level...
Wang Jing and others couldn't help but be stunned, thinking...
suddenly see the light!
Very shocked!
For a moment, all the faces of this group of people were extremely excited at the same time, and their eyes were shining crazily!
That is...the light of hope!
After all, this sea trade has high hopes for Wu Surname Qi Wang and others to avoid Li Er's minions, become independent, become bigger and stronger, and create greater glory!
Now that we have such a wonderful idea when we encounter a problem, how can everyone not be excited?
And Pei Ji then smiled and continued,
"And the price will inevitably rise, at least to the point where it is profitable...otherwise all overseas goods will become peerless treasures, and why can't we still do it at this price!"
When Pei Ji said this, the theory of supply and demand described earlier became more thorough. Now Wang Jing and others couldn't hold back, and they all laughed for a while!
Extremely excited, excited and laughing!
hope!
This is hope!
And at this moment, inspired by Pei Ji's words, Cui Baihe on the side suddenly became enlightened, with a bright smile on his face,
"What Brother Pei said is absolutely true! And according to me, it's more than just profitable! After all, our forces are much stronger than ordinary maritime merchants, and ordinary pirates can also deal with it."
"If the price of overseas goods rises based on the risks of ordinary merchants, then our ability to resist pirates will be stronger, the cost of purchasing goods will be lower, and the profits will be greater!"
Cui Baihe was indeed the first member of the Five Surnames and Qiwang to start an economic and business war with Li Sheng. His keen eyesight quickly discovered this new blind spot.
The reason is very simple. If the cost of ordinary goods is 50, the selling price is 60.
The pirates' restrictions on trade will cause the price of goods to rise to one hundred and twenty, because the cost becomes one hundred!
However, the ability of Wu Xing Qi Wang to resist pirates is stronger than that of ordinary maritime merchants, so the cost can be regarded as only 80 points.
The average market cost is one hundred, but here at Wu Xing Qi Wang it is only eighty, or even seventy...
This business can't be done? Why can't it be done?
And not only can it be done, but it can even be...
"...In that case, I'll wait..."
After thinking for a long time, Lu Changgeng suddenly came to his senses and murmured to himself with a look of disbelief on his face, "I'll just keep doing this business. Not only will I make some money in the future, but... I'll make even more than before?"
"
Thinking of this, Lu Changgeng himself couldn't believe it.
This... the proliferation of pirates is not only not a bad thing, but actually a good thing?
But upon hearing Lu Changgeng's words, Wang Jing, Pei Ji... The eyes of the others suddenly lit up, and they all looked at Lu Changgeng with smiles on their faces!
"Brother Lu is right!"
"Not only will I not lose money, but I will also be able to earn more in the future!"
Thinking of this, everyone was so excited that Wang Jing couldn't help but jump up from his chair.
This is so exciting, who can resist it?
Pei Ji smiled with a smile on his face, stroked his long beard, and showed an expression full of mystery like a master...
But I felt extremely proud in my heart.
Hehe, if I hadn't stood up and analyzed the crux of the matter this time, wouldn't these stupid teammates have changed their tune and given up on sea trade long ago? Those who have lost money will really have lost money, after all, the current price
It hasn’t really skyrocketed yet…
But because of his analysis, the future prospects of Wu Xing Qi Wang suddenly became extremely bright——
What is a celebrity?
What is the value of the Five Surnames and Seven Hopes Think Tank?
At this moment, Pei Ji felt extremely satisfied...
…
At the same time, Zhongzuo Sojima.
At this time, Nakazuso Island... almost three years have passed since the base was first established.
Relying on the excellent convenience of cement powder, the first phase of the military base was completed in one month.
Now, almost three years have passed, and the Zhongzuo Institute has been built more completely, even to the point where it is less like a garrison town and more like a luxurious state capital similar to Hangzhou.
This place is a transit point on the trade route from Hangzhou to Southeast Bay. It goes without saying that the geographical location is of high value. In addition to military fortresses and ports dedicated to military ships, this island also naturally has commercial ports, unloading docks, and
…
A series of business inns, shops, restaurants, etc. opened around commercial activities!
Extremely prosperous.
Of course, just like the parents of young children, they often cannot see that their children are growing up. After all, they have been together day and night, and they have to recall it before they can realize it.
Chai Shao himself was not surprised by the current prosperity of Zhongzuo. After all, Li Er paid for this prosperity, but it was built by himself.
At this moment, we are on the top floor of a six-story restaurant.
The scenery is broad and the sky is high and the clouds are clear!
What’s more, the artistic conception is perfect and elegant!
Chai Shao was holding the wine bowl and looking at the sea outside the window in a bored daze.
At this time, Datang's cement construction technology had been quietly improving since Li Sheng first invented cement. This process was not even led by Li Sheng, but relied on the wisdom and hard work of countless craftsmen in China. In the past, houses were built with cement.
, usually two to four stories, but now in Nakazusojima, there are already many five or six-story buildings.
Chai Shao is waiting for Li Sheng at the moment. Li Sheng has been doing some research in Zhongzuo Soda Industrial Park recently. It is not a surprise to see Li Sheng. Chai Shao is not surprised, but Li Sheng takes the initiative to ask him to meet.
Quite rare.
soon……
"General Chai? Mr. Chai? Haha, I'm here. I'm here to talk to General Chai about the pirates..."
"That's right, Li wants to invite General Chai to play the role of a pirate..."
