Chapter 373 Backup Plan

What if you don't even give them a chance to talk to the high-level, and just cut them off?

The more you think about it, the more fear you get.

Before departure, Copperfield and his party even wrote a suicide note.

This kind of fear reached its peak when they met the Second Corps of the Eternal Night Army, they were surrounded and captured, and after asking their identity, they were thrown into a small dark room that was darkened.

However, no matter in terms of equipment or military quality, the leader of the Eternal Night Army broke Sir Copperfield's perception of the barbarians, even the regular troops of the Bryan family and the Kingsley family were nothing more than that.

The attitude of the other party towards them is really not as serious as it seems, they are like lambs waiting to be slaughtered, they can only honestly wait for the final judgment.

But he didn't expect that in the end, he would turn around and be informed that he was received by the Supreme Ruler of the Eternal Night Army, which made Sir Copperfield even more confused.

It is said that people value them, but they were thrown into prison at the beginning, and no one cares about them.

It is said that people do not value them, and now it is the supreme ruler of the other party who is coming forward. Before this, it was also a luxury they did not expect.

very young.

This was the first feeling Sean gave Copperfield.

In fact, when Xiao En was associated with the name of the supreme ruler of the Eternal Night Army, this was the first thought that popped up in most people's minds when they saw him for the first time.

In fact, after ten years of tempering and development, Sean's initial childishness has completely faded, and he has entered the golden age of life - in his early twenties, not in his thirties.

Due to his personal cultivation, the speed of his physical aging will be delayed for a long time. Even if he fails to become a champion knight or master a warlock, this process will take as long as sixty or seventy years. If he passes this hurdle , will be longer.

At this age, he has long been the pillar of an ordinary family and the father of several children.

But when connected with the ruler of a big power, he looks too young, especially when this big power is established by himself, it looks even more unbelievable. , How old is the other party?

Sean didn't give Sir Copperfield any time to think about it, and said, "I heard that His Majesty Buck personally summoned and appointed a Brian as the leader of the Huayu Plateau's grain merchants. Could it be you?"

Hearing this, Sir Copperfield broke out in a cold sweat. This was the worst opening sentence he had expected. This meant that the information in the hands of the other party was detailed enough, and it also meant that the other party might be held accountable for it. This is definitely not a good start for them.

But denial in this situation is a joke about his own life, Sir Copperfield replied bravely: "Reporting to the lord, we are just a group of humble businessmen, running around to support our families, where is there any business?" Wherever we go, we have a purely business relationship with the Kingsley family, and we have no other deeper ties, so please be clear, my lord."

"There is no other deep connection? Not necessarily? Many of the Kingsley family soldiers we captured came from the Huayu Plateau. I believe this is not an exception?" Sean's voice did not have any ups and downs, and there was no emotion, It is even more difficult to grasp his real thoughts.

"That's a person with an eye for money. Accepting the employment of the Kingsley family is also a routine act. I don't represent them. I represent only the Huayu Plateau grain merchants who do their own business." Copperfield Jazz scolded those Brians hired by the Kingsley family in his heart.

You are so good at selling food, you are selling food, what kind of mercenary are you going to be?

It's all right now, no matter how much money you get, what's the use if you can't take it home and let them make a fuss.

Sean said straight to the point: "I know why you are here, I will not buy a single grain of yours."

"Ah... my lord..." Sir Copperfield opened his mouth wide, not knowing how to answer. Ever since he stepped into this door, he has been led by the nose by the young lord of the Eternal Night Army.

Sean waved his hand, interrupted Sir Copperfield's argument, and said bluntly: "Now you have two choices, the first is to let the grain rot in your hands, and the second choice is to barter and use grain In exchange for the special products of the Yongye Army Commander."

"Barter?" Sean's rhythm was obviously too fast, which made Copperfield a bit unable to react.

I said before that I would not buy a grain of their grain, but now it has become a barter.

Copperfield was not an idiot either, and he immediately understood the true meaning of the young lord.

Selling food to the Yong Ye army leader is just a one-shot deal, but bartering is different. If you trade your own goods, it is a double deal.

Could it be that the young lord wants to open up the Huayu Plateau market with the help of grain merchants like them?

If the other party really has this idea, they must have a product that they think is unique in their hands.

Sir Copperfield said with a bitter face: "I don't seem to have any other choice. Bartering is fine, but the price of food and the commodities you get, can we make our own choice?"

Sean seemed to give them two choices, but there was actually only one.

The second is bartering. Although they don't know what the commodity is, they can recover a certain amount of cost. Once the food rots in their hands, they will lose everything.

"The price of grain, I will convert it to you according to the normal market price of the Asia Minor Plain, but you need to transport the grain to the designated location, rest assured, we will not deliberately make things difficult for you, as long as you transport the grain to a place where our transport ships can load it It's convenient, but as for the products in our territory, of course you can choose by yourself." Sean threw out his bottom line bluntly.

What they are doing now is not a normal commodity sale, and they can still bargain.

Copperfield and these Huayu Plateau grain merchants are the fish on the chopping board, which can only be slaughtered by Xiao En.

But compared to the food in their hands, Sean is looking at long-term interests.

No matter how much food there is, there is also a real quantity. If you can take this opportunity to open up the Huayu Plateau market with the help of these grain merchants, the benefits will be long-term.

So Sean didn't slaughter them hard, but offered a relatively fair price.

"The lord is merciful." Sir Copperfield praised sincerely, somewhat surprised in his heart. Although the situation is not the best as expected, it is not the worst. The young lord in front of him seems to have a long-term plan of his own. .

"No need to thank me, this is just a deal, but I have a small additional condition." Sean continued.

"What additional conditions? Lord Lord, just say it." Copperfield's heart trembled, and he secretly thought that the topic was coming.

"Next time you want to transport goods, don't transport food. I heard that the wine on the Huayu Plateau is famous all over the world. You can bring more of this. The stronger the wine, the better. It is really not good, and all kinds of beer are fine. This is our military leader. For the official purchase, we will give you a fair price, as well as various rare documents, as well as the antiquities of the ancient Andes Empire, I am also very interested in it personally, sir, please help me to pay attention when I am in business in the future."

"That's all?" Copperfield was stunned.

It's not that Sean's request is too difficult, but too simple.

Compared with transporting food, transporting wine is less difficult, especially for those spirits, which require several catties of grain to brew one catty.

And the price is much higher, several times Asaen, except for Huayu Plateau, wine is an out-and-out luxury in any military leader.

The special case of the Huayu Plateau is also caused by the unique geographical environment. Their surplus food cannot be transported, so they can only make wine.

As for the orphan documents and the antiquities of the Andes Empire period, they are purely personal hobbies, and they are just asking for help to pay attention.

etc.

What the other party meant was that after this journey, would he continue to run here?

What a joke, one trip like this is enough for them to bear, how could they make a second trip?

Unless their products are attractive enough to be sold back to Huayu Plateau, then needless to say, profit-seeking businessmen will flock here ignoring the risks.

This young lord is so confident in the products in his territory?

Confident they'll be returning merchants?

Copperfield's doubts only lasted for less than two days.

On the afternoon of the second day after the brief interview with the Lord of the Yongye Army, the fleet of samples they talked about arrived.

That's right, the fleet, all of them are big-bellied merchant ships with a huge load capacity, a total of fifteen ships lined up in front of Sir Copperfield, very visually impressive.

A total of fifteen merchant ships, which are among the best caravans in any military leader, but in the hands of the Yongye military leader, they are only used for exhibitions to new customers.

Sir Copperfield has never seen such a large-scale painting after traveling all over the world for so many years.

After boarding the boat, they couldn't even move their eyes, and followed the young shopping guide assigned to them by the young lord step by step.

Copperfield thought that he had a lot of knowledge. He had seen most of the things in the lives of nobles and commoners, but the sample exhibition ship led by the Yongye Army broke their perception. You know, he couldn't name many things on it, so he could only keep asking the young shopping guide.

"What's this?"

"This is porcelain, a kind of container for holding things. There are great differences in type and quality. Most of this exquisite blue and white porcelain are used for decoration, and there is a slightly inferior white porcelain, which is used for In addition, we provide custom-made services. As long as you give us the pattern you need, we can make the pattern on the porcelain. This kind of porcelain is called badge porcelain. At present, it is very popular in the Asia Minor Plain. The welcome of the nobles, even the daily utensils of Her Royal Highness the Princess Regent have been replaced with this kind of porcelain, please see that this is the crown griffin porcelain dedicated to the royal family of Lancelot."

As the cabin opened, a whole set of porcelain appeared in front of Copperfield, ranging from daily necessities such as teacups, bowls and plates to large and small vases. Nowhere to use them.

Although the shapes are different, the patterns on them are surprisingly similar, either simple or complicated, without exception, they are all intertwined with crown griffins and roses. This is Princess Sophilia of the royal family of Lancelot. personal medal.

Crown griffins are all golden yellow, while roses are bright red.

The two are intertwined with white porcelain as the drawing board, which has great visual impact.

Sir Copperfield and his party couldn't move their eyes away. It would be a high-end thing to have such a set of gadgets in their own manor, or invite friends to taste fine wine together, or What a sense of accomplishment it is to take it out and use it at a grand party?

"Is this set for sale?" Sir Copperfield asked with red eyes. He had already thought about the buyer of this set of porcelain in his mind, and the Brian family, the ruler of the Flower Language Plateau, would definitely be interested in it.

"Sorry, this is just an exhibit, and it has the exclusive badge of the royal family of Lancelot. It cannot be sold to the outside world. My personal suggestion is not to touch this kind of product that is too single for buyers. After all, it is limited by craftsmanship and production. The price of this kind of container is relatively high, and most people can't accept it. If Jazz is interested, you can buy this kind of product that is easily accepted by the public. After negotiating with the buyer, it will not be too late to order badge porcelain." The young shopping guide replied with a smile road.

"Thank you for your reminder, sir. I lost my composure. I'm sorry. I was rude just now. I don't know how to address you, sir?" Sir Copperfield calmed down and adjusted his emotions.

Now he no longer considered the question of whether he would make a second trip.

Because the brand-new container alone was worth his second trip.

What's more, this is only the first of fifteen sample exhibition ships. Even if the other party uses the first-hand method, the next products may not have such visual impact, but as long as they are not too bad, they can be used as green leaves to set off the front of the ship. This red flower will do it.

"Alan, Alan Heyman, sir, you can call me Alan." The young shopping guide Alan grinned.

"Judging from Mr. Allen's accent, he should be from Byron." Copperfield casually probed.

"I was born in Manyu, but I have a quarter of the Andean blood on my body. I mainly ran Jacob River, the line from the Twin Cities to the capital Valesta. When I received the order, I was buying goods in the Twin Cities. The lord may have seen that I have more experience in this area, so I was temporarily seconded here." Allen said with a hearty smile.

Regardless of his young age, he is also an old fritter who came up from the bottom. It seems that he has revealed a lot of news, but in fact he has his own meaning, clearly expressing to the other party that he is in this respect. Information for professionals.

"Your lord is really considerate." Sir Copperfield shuddered again. Ever since he came into contact with the leader of the Eternal Night Army, he has been led by the nose everywhere. He was like this in front of the young lord before, but now it seems that he is not in front of himself. Still haven't shaken off.

"I would like to give Jazz another personal suggestion. Don't rush to choose products now. It will not be too late to choose after seeing all the fifteen exhibition ships. Anyway, we don't restrict what goods Mr. Jazz can choose." Allen suggested again.

"I lost my composure just now. Thank you Mr. Allen for your suggestion. Next, I will think carefully about it." Copperfield nodded in agreement.

"Then let's continue."

"continue."

If the cargo of the first merchant ship brought a strong visual impact to Copperfield, the cargo of the second merchant ship was as simple as possible.

However, Sir Copperfield was shocked and stammered, "Could it be paper? There are so many?"

"That's right, it's the paper used for recording." Alan nodded with a smile, and did not show any abnormality due to Sir Copperfield's gaffe.

Because it wasn't the first time he saw this kind of demeanor, and I believe it wouldn't be the last time.

Sir Copperfield pounced on it like a hungry wolf, muttering something.

"It's really paper for writing, but why is it so thin? What kind of material is it made of? Sheepskin? No, even lambskin can't make it so thin, not to mention there are so many of them. Is it a legend? The straw woven paper in it? It’s not right, you can’t see the weaving veins at all, it’s a complete whole, and the degree of firmness is not right.”
