"Oh?"
Although Xia Yuanji affirmed Gandhi's words, in fact, these words were airtight and he kicked the ball to Gandhi again.
Do you want to cooperate? OK! Show your sincerity first!
In business dealings, whoever speaks first will be in a weak position, and this weak position will continue throughout the entire business dealings process.
The shopping mall is like a battlefield, not to mention the trade between two countries. A slight fluctuation in figures can amount to tens of thousands of silver!
Gandhi clenched his fists and cursed secretly,
Cunning fox!
However, Gandhi had no idea what to do. He had to take whatever moves Xia Yuanji made.
It is no exaggeration to say that the moment Gandhi saw Changjia sugar in the shop in Yingtianfu, the national destiny of the Delhi Sultanate was pushed to the edge of the cliff.
The biggest problem now is,
Gandhi lost his wife and troops. He did not re-enter the sugar trade with the Ming Dynasty. Moreover, considering the quality and price of white sugar, he could completely replace the Delhi Sultanate's monopoly on the sugar industry in neighboring countries.
In other words, in the surrounding small countries, they import sugar directly from Daming, and they don’t buy it from you!
Without the sugar trade, the economy of the Delhi Sultanate would be like cutting off its arms!
Gandhi's demand is very simple. I don't want to sell sugar to the Ming Dynasty. Can you, the Ming Dynasty, produce and sell it yourself? Don't take away the basic base of the Delhi Sultanate!
But, can this be said?
There was silence in the household. Little Marco Polo felt a chill on his back. He looked at Xia Yuanji for a while and then for a moment at Gandhi. He did not dare to make the slightest sound.
Xia Yuanji was not in a hurry and just looked at Gandhi with a smile on his face.
During the Hongwu period, the first and second positions in the household department were changed faster than changing pants. Xia Yuanjineng worked as the minister of household department for five years in this hell mode, and he had reached the full level.
He was able to withstand even Zhu Yuanzhang's test. Facing the finance minister of the small Delhi Sultanate, he seemed too capable.
Gandhi was silent for a long time, until the air around him froze and fell on him like cold water droplets. Gandhi breathed rapidly and finally spoke,
"Master Xia, I hope to discuss a suitable price with you. Our Delhi Sultanate wants to buy out Daming's sugar-making technology!"
After saying this, Gandhi began to breathe heavily.
Xia Yuanji was stunned when he heard this. He really didn't expect that Gandhi would make this choice.
Are you going to buy out Daming's sugar-making technology?
This is directly about digging up the roots!
But, does the Delhi Sultanate have the financial resources? If you want to buy Ming Dynasty's sugar-making technology, it must be an astronomical figure!
Xia Yuanji came back to his senses and looked more relaxed and at ease. Gandhi was not stupid, but his words could only mean one thing.
Gandhi was cornered!
Gandhi's eyes were bloodshot. He looked up at Xia Yuanji and repeated intermittently,
"Master Xia, is there any discussion?"
Xia Yuanji smiled and shook his head, the meaning couldn't be more obvious.
Want to buy out Daming’s technology?
Don't even think about it.
When Gandhi saw this, his mind buzzed, and stars flashed in front of his eyes.
It's not that Gandhi couldn't do it, it's just that Ming's combination of punches was too fast.
Whether it was mental calculation or not, Gandhi could not react at all.
Moreover, Xia Yuanji did not give Gandhi time to react, and smiled lightly,
"This time His Majesty ascended the throne, it was just in time to gather all the foreign envoys from the surrounding areas in the capital, so that they could talk about the sugar exported by Ming Dynasty.
Not only sugar, but also salt, wine, meat, and rice, Ming Dynasty has a large amount of stocks for export, and the prices are negotiable. After all, it is best to make money if everyone works together. "
Little Marco Polo was stunned when he heard this. There was something in Xia Yuanji's words.
If you, the Delhi Sultanate, don’t respond, I will take action. Moreover, our Ming Dynasty not only has sugar,
We would rather sacrifice a little profit from white sugar and make up for it from other commodities, or sell all the white sugar and rob the market of the Delhi Sultanate!
Every word and every word of Xia Yuanji was like a heavy hammer, hitting Gandhi's heart hard.
Gandhi even had a fleeting thought of going to war with Ming!
With such a huge profit plate, the Delhi Sultanate had enough reasons to go to war with the Ming Dynasty!
However, Gandhi only dared to think about it.
The Ming Dynasty was not a soft persimmon, and the Delhi Sultanate could not control the Ming Dynasty.
This is embarrassing,
I can’t even sell it! You can't even grab it! I can't beat him even more!
Daming can be as hooligan as he wants!
What to do? !
Gandhi was forced to have no choice but to speak and asked hoarsely,
"Master Xia, what do you want? Just tell me."
Xia Yuanji shook his head, folded his hands together, bowed towards the palace where Zhu Xiongying was, and said seriously,
"It's not what I want, but what His Majesty wants."
The Gandhi people had to lower their heads under the eaves and could only quickly change their words and say,
"Yes, the noble Emperor Ming, what do you want?"
Xia Yuanji turned around, walked back to the desk, and tapped the desk with his fingers, making a clicking sound.
"People, we want people."
"Human? What do you mean?!"
Gandhi was dumbfounded.
“Of course it’s the people who buy the goods, the fittest survive.
Obviously, the white sugar produced in our country is much better than that of your country. Your Majesty thinks that the white sugar sold in the Delhi Sultanate in the future can only be the Changjia white sugar produced in the Ming Dynasty. "
"What?! Impossible!"
Gandhi exclaimed and flatly refused. Before, he had thought about preserving the export market, but Ming officials were even more desperate. He wanted to directly confiscate his home!
“If our country can only sell Daming’s candy, where can we make money?!”
"It's very simple. We only cooperate with your court. In other words, only your court can enter the Delhi Sultanate's supply.
We don’t care how you price it and sell it to the people of your country in the future. If you think it’s not enough, you can still make a fuss about taxation.
As long as smuggling is suppressed, your court will certainly make money. "
Gandhi opened his mouth slightly, not knowing what to say for a moment. Xia Yuanji was so considerate that he even thought of a plan for you.
Monopoly, selling at a premium, raising tax rates... you can do whatever you want,
The point is, only Daming sugar can be circulated in the market!
"This this...."
Sugar in the Delhi Sultanate is also an official monopoly industry.
It's just that the funds in this industry flow to a small number of high-caste nobles, and the money will not flow to the country again.
So the poor people in the Delhi Sultanate became poorer, and the rich people got richer,
But according to Xia Yuanji’s intention, such a large monopoly industry must be left to Ming Dynasty to monopolize.
How could those high-caste nobles who benefited the most accept it? !
This has touched their roots!
