Tie Mo remained silent and looked at Chang Minyue quietly.
Chang Minyue raised her eyebrows lightly and carefully paid attention to the expression on Tie Mo's face. Why was his reaction so dull?
He sat down again, holding a bowl of hot water, and continued talking.
"You have too many furs on hand right now. Even if your leather shop works hard, I'm afraid it will be busy until the end of autumn. Besides, no one except my Chang family dares to buy the furs you have."
Tie Mo added some firewood to the brazier and picked it gently, sparks suddenly flew everywhere.
The flying sparks are like the beating heart at this time, which is a little uneasy.
"Tie Mou said that even if I don't sell it, I can make leather slowly. I have plenty of time!"
Chang Minyue smiled lightly, put her slender finger to her mouth and shook it, "Yes, what you lack is time."
"You don't have to deny it. If you don't need a large amount of money urgently, with your ability, you can slowly accumulate wealth. Why would you take people to barter north in the winter?"
Tie Mo felt a chill in his heart. Facing those clear and beautiful eyes, he felt like he was being seen through. It seemed that he still underestimated Chang Minyue. This woman had a very keen insight.
"Even if what you say is true, Tie still doesn't dare to agree to you. To be honest... I can't trust you..."
"Can't believe it? It's natural. You just need to treat this business as a simple exchange. You get what you want, and my Chang family gets a batch of furs, which solves their urgent need."
Tie Mo thought for a while and whispered: "Why are you so anxious to get a batch of furs?"
Chang Minyue looked sad and said with a wry smile: "There is nothing to say. Last year, my Chang family received an order. The other party wanted 50,000 furs. It was originally agreed to be delivered in July. But the other party suddenly changed his mind and asked us to four
Delivery will be made every month. Otherwise, my Chang family will have to pay a large sum of money."
"Hey, although my Chang family can afford to pay the compensation, we don't want others to laugh at it."
Tie Mo couldn't help but want to laugh, "Delivery three months in advance? The exact delivery time was not specified in the contract at that time?"
"No, they are all regular customers, so I didn't think much about it. Moreover, if the goods are delivered in July, they will be stored for one or two months before they can be sold. If the goods are delivered in April, the storage time will increase. Generally, no one will be willing to ship in April.
Delivery, so I didn’t think much about it.”
"It seems that you are being plotted against, Kang family?"
Chang Minyue's beautiful eyes lit up and she said softly: "Why do you say it's the Kang family?"
"In the whole of Shanxi, there are only a few families who dare to dig holes for your Chang family. And Tie Mou has a grudge against the Kang family. If you choose to do business with Tie Mou, you are also slapping the Kang family's face. So, don't do it at this time.
It’s hard to guess, right?”
"Yeah." Chang Minyue nodded, and found that the water in the bowl was a little cold, so she poured the water and filled a bowl with hot water, and continued to hold the bowl of water to warm her hands.
"You are right. So, do you agree to this deal? Not only can our Chang family give you what you want, but I will also tell you a secret."
"In addition to money, Tie needs 300 fire guns, as well as swords and armor... can you give them?"
Tie Mo arched his body slightly, perhaps because he was too excited, and the veins in his hands were slightly swollen.
Chang Minyue didn't feel surprised at all when she heard what Tie Mo asked for. She had seen something in his eyes a long time ago - ambition!
"Fireguns are precious things. Even our Chang family can't afford many. How about two hundred? For other swords, guns and soldiers, our Chang family will try our best to satisfy you."
"Okay, how many pelts do you want?"
Chang Minyue smiled sweetly. She knew that Tie Mo's question proved that he had agreed to do this deal.
"Half of the furs you have in hand, in addition, our Chang family will also accept the furs made by your fur shop, and we can pay you in advance. Don't worry, our Chang family will never let you suffer in terms of price.
A piece of fur is fifty taels, and a piece of fur is fifty taels. What do you think? If you agree, I will start sending the funds and the things you need to Anzhuang Castle tomorrow."
Tie Mo carefully recalled the price given by Chang Minyue. A fur was fifty taels, which was a reasonable price. Of course, if he sent it to the capital to sell it, the price would be higher, but it wouldn't be much higher.
The most important thing is that by directly selling the furs to the Chang family, I save a lot of time and can accumulate a large amount of money in the shortest time.
Half of the furs in hand were sold to the Chang family, and the remaining half was made into furs. According to the price of fifty taels a piece, if they were resold, it would be a million-tael deal.
It is said that several big Shanxi merchants in Zhangjiakou are very wealthy, and it is indeed true.
Chang Minyue decided on a million-tael deal in a blink of an eye without discussing it with her family.
Taking a long breath and trying to become calmer, Tie Mo slowly stood up and said with a smile: "Okay, Tie agreed to this deal. Who makes us all have a common enemy? But, Miss Chang, you have to
Pay me five hundred thousand taels of silver first, and in addition, two hundred fire guns and five hundred knives must be delivered to Anzhuang Castle as soon as possible."
"No problem. The fire gun and knife are equivalent to fifty thousand taels of silver. When the furs are delivered, our Chang family will pay you another six hundred thousand taels!"
After thinking about it carefully, he felt that he was not at a disadvantage. Tie Mo smiled and said: "Okay!"
"So, that secret you were talking about?"
Chang Minyue frowned slightly, and her expression became much more serious, "This secret is about Mantou Mountain. Aren't you curious why Kang Zhendai is targeting you? The secret is in Mantou Mountain. As far as I know, there are many iron ores and
Copper mine, the Kang family has been secretly building ordnance for many years, and it has been supported by the mine from the steamed buns."
Tie Mo raised his eyebrows and rolled his eyes, "Is that all?"
"Huh? You already knew that?"
"certainly!"
Tie Mo actually just found out about it, but his expression remained unchanged and his expression was flawless.
Chang Minyue couldn't help but feel a little uneasy, and couldn't help but glance at Tie Mogao.
"It's okay for you to know, but I would like to advise you privately, don't take the idea of Mantou Mountain before you have the strength."
"Of course, but Tie would like to ask Miss Chang a question. If Tie can hold Mantou Mountain alive, would you be interested in participating?"
Chang Minyue's pupils shrank and her hands trembled uncontrollably.
Thinking of the arms trade brought about by iron ore and copper mines, even with her concentration, her breathing became a little choppy.
Mei Mei looked at the man opposite and couldn't help but sigh. This man was indeed ambitious and bold.
"As long as you can swallow Mantou Mountain alive, no matter what others do, I will definitely develop Mantou Mountain with you!"
.......
Chang Minyue was a resolute woman. After making an agreement with Tie Mo, the Chang family's motorcade appeared one after another at Anzhuang Fort the next day.
The silver, muskets, and knives were all transported to Anzhuang Castle in less than five days.
With these things, Tie Mo's eyes also shot out bursts of light.
