Casals' payment was completed on the seventh day after the interview. At that time, Li Lin had just explained the four arithmetic operations to the elves with anxious words.
There was no delay in the movements of the old bearded fox, and the speed was not unpleasant. In a backward environment without the Internet, telephone, telegraph and other convenient means of communication, and even a nationwide postal communication system was not established, he contacted livestock dealers and farm tools.
Dealers, seed merchants, and horse-drawn carriage companies prepared and delivered all the goods on the list. It only took seven days, which was truly a feat.
Seeing that the old fox worked hard enough, Li Lin gave up his plan to discuss with him what happened [livestock prices have risen sharply recently]. The old fox repeatedly emphasized this when he took away 10 florins [
Objective factors], Li Lin did not expose this half-truth and half-falsehood on the spot.
Now is the spring plowing season. It is not surprising that the prices of seeds, farm tools and livestock have risen. Recently, in order to transport supplies to Lapland, Charlemagne has requisitioned many horses and tools from the private sector. As a result, prices have risen further. However, the increase can reach
So much is worth researching to see if there is a problem with the middlemen or some other link.
At the moment, he can only let the old fox take advantage first. He does not have the strength to challenge others. For the time being, he can only give up part of his interests to ensure that the cooperation will not break down. When capital accumulation is completed in the future, he will never allow this to happen again. [
After completing the inventory and delivery, Casals left Li Lin's tent and carriage with four large boxes of exquisite and gorgeous porcelain and a satisfied smile. When the carriages completely disappeared from sight, Niflheim
The elves could no longer suppress their emotions and rushed towards the long-awaited supplies. Their trembling hands carefully touched the farm tools, livestock and seeds, and some even made a small gasping sound.
[A simple thinking model that is loyal to feelings].
Observing the actions of the simple boys and girls, Li Lin, who facilitated the deal, was not thinking about the ended business. He crossed his arms, tapped his fingers to the rhythm of the sound, and after speaking indifferently, began a new round of evaluation.
,Adjustment.
Lack of daily necessities and foreign exchanges for a long time, the social system of the elves is a clan-based rural society in an extremely poor environment. For them, land and crops are the best things. Their economic model also meets the needs of a small area for survival.
Internal circulation structure. Purchasing farming necessities for them is undoubtedly a ploy that suits their liking. The short journey out of the valley to purchase has broadened the horizons and knowledge of the younger generation of elves, and finally injected a breath of fresh air into their closed small society, providing
Lay a necessary foundation for future changes.
But changing the deep-rooted backward concepts of a closed society is never an easy task, even if it has endured some stimulation. It is still difficult to let the idea of change take root in the hearts of the elves. Looking at these excited boys holding farm tools and animals,
The difficulty of ideological work can be roughly estimated.
Peasant women, mountain springs, and some fields - ideal rural life. The elves living in extreme poverty yearn for the quiet life of pastoral pastoral. They are easily satisfied with a slightly improved life. And [satisfaction] - this kind of easy development
There is a huge conflict between the emotion of laziness and Li Lin's hidden, but essentially aggressive plan. If you look at the dangerous case where the dragon tribe has extremely low interest in reproducing offspring, you will understand that [easy to satisfy] this kind of thing
It is really not in line with the current plan implementation and must be corrected no matter what.
Several plans have been prepared and have entered the feasibility study stage. Several of the more radical ones may cause damage to the elven villages and casualties, but the study of the plans will continue.
The smooth progress of the plan is the first priority. For this reason, sacrifices within an acceptable range will occur sooner or later. Moreover, such sacrifices have their necessity and rationality. Formulate, pass, and then implement the necessary sacrifices at some time in the future.
The plan is also inevitable.
"Thanks."
A voice as soft as the warm spring wind brushed against the eardrum, and the gentle mask that had not yet been removed was immediately activated, and a gentle smile responded to the girl who walked in and thanked him.
"You're still so polite, I just did some trivial things."
"[Excessive modesty is hypocrisy]. You once said this to me, right?"
Li Lin's counterattack also used Li Lin's own arguments. Brynhil's face showed a slight sense of pride as if the prank had succeeded.
"Men have the obligation to maintain even false modesty in front of ladies, and beautiful ladies should undoubtedly enjoy this kind of treatment."
After the self-deprecating words, he bent down and saluted humbly. His movements were smooth and regular, just like those elegant and modest aristocratic gentlemen in fairy tales, not a cunning boy who used tricks to fool girls.
The girl who was both happy and embarrassed by Li Lin blushed slightly. After taking a few breaths, the girl warrior put on a serious face and asked:
"Why don't we accept gold coins as payment, but let that person purchase our goods? Well... although I don't know much about business, and it's not a happy thing to doubt others casually. But I think we can go it alone
If you buy these things, it will be a bit troublesome, but no one will take a cut of it."
"Yeah, that big beard doesn't look very trustworthy!"
Holding her sister's neck from behind, Freya couldn't see any complaints on her naughty face, and she said with a bad smile.[
"That guy is always staring at other people's breasts lustfully. He must be trying to reach out to them! It's so annoying!"
"That kind of thing can't happen, right?"
Li Lin's explanation, which sounded a little difficult, was unanimously agreed by all the elves except Freya. No one believed that the bearded Castilian who seemed unreliable just by looking at his appearance would have such moral integrity in his head.
Concept. Similarly, no one believes that anyone would like Freya's look... Even after repeated consideration, it can only be described as a washboard underdeveloped body, coupled with the boldness and vigor shown by the little wild cats at all times, men other than Li Lin will
There are only three types left to pursue Freya.
Pedophiles, crazy people who do not know how to live or die, and lunatics who are fond of small breasts - they are all groups that are hugely different from "normal men". Apart from this, the only "normal" one always keeps safe with her.
distance……
"I think that guy is staring at the box you are sitting on and the bottles and cans in the box... Ouch!!!!!!"
Thor's words were the truth, and there were no words in them that offended Freya. However, he still received a kick for his outspoken testimony that proved that porcelain is more attractive than girls.
"Why don't you trust that unreliable guy to buy it? I want to know too."
Retracting the devil's claws that ravaged Thor's toes, the little wildcat stuck out his tongue and asked.
“There is no better choice than Casals.”
The lack of emotion gave the explanation a gloomy tone. The elves were confused by the sudden change in the atmosphere. Only Tyr and Brunhil had thoughtful expressions on their faces.
"If we buy it ourselves, because we are strangers who don't know much about the market, in order not to get ripped off, what we buy back is useless waste. We can only spend a lot of time investigating the market.
Regarding matters such as price, merchant reputation, quality inspection, and bargaining, buying from people who are familiar with the market can relatively reduce these troubles.
"But he will take a profit from it, right? Is that okay?"
Li Lin raised his finger, his humble face once again revealed the sarcasm he had shown when negotiating with Casals, and Li Lin asked teasingly to the elves who were waiting for answers:
"Freya, who can sell him porcelain but us?"
"Of course it's just you...damn it."
The clever little wild cat finally realized it, and the other elves' minds finally turned around.
Monopoly means limited profits and maximum priority and initiative in business transactions.
In the whole of Wilt, only Li Lin mastered the craftsmanship of making porcelain, and some of the key details were unclear even to them who had watched the whole process.
Li Lin has achieved and mastered this unique skill. Casals, who cannot find other sources of porcelain, can have his role replaced by someone else. As long as he spends some time and smells the wind,
The vultures with a taste for profit will rush to Li Lin in droves. By then, whether Casals can still eat all the porcelain will be a dangerous suspense.
Unable to take the huge risk of this relationship, the shrewd black marketeer quickly figured out the key. After weighing the cost, although there was some heartache and the fact that it could not hinder Li Lin's development, becoming the only porcelain dealer was obvious.
Much more important.
"So he won't pay you fake gold coins, and he won't dare to mess with the goods delivered to us."
Tier laughed and gave Li Lin a thumbs up in praise.[
"We just don't dare to give us shoddy things. We can't get that guy's money-stealing hands away from us yet. Our strength is still too weak. But sooner or later I will let that fox remember
Come on, don't play dirty tricks in front of me. Doing business is his only way out."
Li Lin smiled mischievously and winked as if making a face. This playful move made the elves laugh loudly.
Most of what Li Lin has said so far has come true, and the elves believe that the rest will be fulfilled sooner or later.
"It's so easy to talk about. Nothing can escape your calculations. I don't know what kind of guy can compare with you."
Freya's praise sounded more like a changed sigh. An extremely smart young man, a supernormal being who seemed to have "mastery" of everything in the world, an outstanding person who never made mistakes - there is nothing better than this.
This is even more frustrating for the elf girl who prides herself on being smart and regards Li Lin as her destined husband.
"It's not okay to define it too hastily, Freya, the world is a very broad concept. Isn't it too arrogant to easily lift me to the top of a world that accommodates many possibilities?"
