Yunze saw this and walked over quickly. When he saw Yunze coming, the guard who was blocking the way quickly saluted Yunze respectfully and said: "Master Yun, you are here!"
"What happened!" Yunze looked at the guard and then at the alien in front of him.
"Back to the young master, this Mongolian man said he wanted to do business with us. When I saw that he was a foreigner, I blocked him out..." the guard leader replied quickly.
At this time, the Mongolian people on the side quickly stepped forward and said to Yunze: "Your Excellency, the owner of this place...can you do business with me...I have spices, beef jerky...and dried milk." ……have……"
He spoke Jingchao language that was not very fluent, reached into his backpack anxiously, and took out a lot of things in one fell swoop.
Seeing what he took out, Yunze's eyes lit up.
Although the aroma he took out was not much, Yunze saw many spices in it that could be used for cooking. These spices should only be found in the countries in the Western Regions.
The Mongolian in front of me must live in the prairie. Some spice prairie can be found on it, but other spice prairie does not.
Moreover, how could he, a Mongolian, think of coming to Jingchao to do business? This person does have some business acumen. As for the beef jerky and dried milk on him. It made Yunze's heart move.
If you are doing catering here, you will be short of beef and mutton, and you will be short of butter for hot pot. The man in front of me has solved his troubles, and the spices in his hands are also good things!
"Follow me..." Yunze smiled at the man and introduced him into the fiefdom. Seeing that Yunze was about to take the man in, the guards did not dare to stop him, but they looked puzzled.
They don't seem to understand why their young master wants to do business with the Mongolian people, and how much money these people can make! Except for cattle and sheep, the Mongols have very little gold and silver.
Even if there are mines, these people don't know how to mine them. They didn't know that the Mongolian people who were useless in their eyes were just wasted money in Yunze's eyes.
If we can get the other party to sell a batch of beef, and then start a cattle and sheep farm here, the income will be absolutely immeasurable.
Although the Jing Dynasty did not restrict the killing of cattle, the number of cattle that could be killed each year was extremely limited. Therefore, beef is considered a rarity in Jing Dynasty. The price is ridiculously expensive, and those who can afford beef are from wealthy families.
As for mutton, not many people eat it because of its strong smell. Of course, lamb is definitely a delicacy when done right.
Not to mention, besides being edible, sheep also have wool that can be put to use. If it can be made into wool cloth, or clothes. It is cold and cold resistant, absolutely the best.
If we can open up business with the Mongolian prairie, this will be a more profitable business. Yunze didn't expect that he would encounter such a good thing when he came to the fiefdom.
Yunze asked the guards to find Tang Jian, handed over the paper workers, and asked Tang Jian to arrange these people. And told Tang Jian some things.
Then, he took the Mongolian people in front of him to the office area in the middle of the fiefdom, where a specially built office building was built.
Quze brought the Mongolian into his own room. After letting him sit down, a servant came in and poured tea.
"Sir, do you think our business is going to work?...Can it be done?" The Mongolian looked at Yunze anxiously, his eyes full of expectation.
"Tell me about your origins and what kind of business you want to do with me!" Yunze smiled at the person in front of him.
When the other party heard this, he looked happy. He knew that this matter was worth talking about, and he quickly said: "My name is Zabie, and I come from the Kle tribe of the Mongolian people... My father is the leader of the tribe, but I don't like grazing on the grassland. I prefer to travel all over the country. I have been to many countries in the Western Regions and also to the Khitan people, and I have done business among them."
Zhabie told his story in detail, as if he was afraid that Yunze would think he was a liar. He almost even explained clearly which Western countries he had visited, how long he had been on the road, and what scenery he had seen.
The spices on his body were brought from the countries in the Western Regions, and their Kelie tribe would do spice business with the countries in the Western Regions.
He sold horses and beef from his own grassland to the countries in the Western Regions, and then bought spices and many other things from them, including luxury goods and some necessities of life.
In addition to the spices that their tribe likes, most of the spices are sent to Jingchao for sale in exchange for salt, sugar, food and other urgently needed supplies.
This time, he came to Ningsu Mansion to do business, but he saw refined salt and high-strength wine, as well as perfume and soap in Ningsu Mansion. and brightly colored cloth.
So he got the idea to buy these things. However, many people are unwilling to do business with him.
Even if he wanted to do it, the price was too high and he couldn't bear it. The key is that he doesn't have much money. He doesn't buy much, so he won't make much money when he goes back.
Later, after many inquiries, I found out about Danyang City, and then, after further inquiries, I found out about the fiefdom of the Prince of Danyang County.
The business he wants to do with Yunze now is perfume and soap, as well as refined salt and cloth.
After listening to the other party's statement, Yunze looked at the other party. Facing the expectant and nervous look of the other party, he smiled slightly and said: "I can sell you all the things you want, and I don't need any money, but... I need your cattle, sheep and horses to pay for it, of course. If you have useless wool and sheepskin, I can also collect it... If you are willing, we will discuss the details, if not, just pretend that we have never met."
Of course, Yunze doesn't need money to do business with the other party. This thing is actually just a circulation certificate. What is really useful is the goods.
On the Mongolian side, what Yunze could see were, of course, cattle, sheep and horses, as well as wool and sheepskins. These are all good things.
"Of course, I also want the spices you bring in from the Western Regions... I want as much as you have... As for livestock such as horses, cattle and sheep, I also want as much as I can..."
Although, it is a bit troublesome to send horse beef from the prairie, and some people may die on the way. But as long as it can be transported here, Yunze will have a seed.
"We have plenty of cattle, sheep, and horses, but... a lot of people may die on the way here. If we can actually transport them here, I'm afraid not even half of them will be delivered. Moreover, it's also very time-consuming."
Zhabie said with a somewhat embarrassed expression. He also thought of this, but Yunze didn't want money, just cattle, sheep and horses, so there was nothing he could do.
"As for wool, sheepskin, and spices, these things are quite simple."
"It's okay, you just need to transport it over. If the cattle, sheep and horses die on the road, I can give you the full price. If the live cattle, sheep and horses you deliver exceed 50%, I will give you an extra 10% profit! If it exceeds 60%, I will If I give you another 10% profit, the more you live, the more profit you will make, what do you think!"
Yunze waved his hand to Zhabie.
Zhabie looked slightly stunned when he heard this, but his face soon showed a joyful expression. He is only responsible for transportation, and he will be paid for life and death. This is not a loss-making business.
Moreover, in order to fear that they would get into trouble and fail to deliver goods properly, Yunze actually offered more generous terms. The more livestock work he did, the more profits he would give.
This made his heart even hotter. He now wanted to negotiate a price with Yunze and how many cattle, sheep and horses he would send.
"Okay! Just as the young master said... let's talk about how to trade! How to exchange!"
Zhabie quickly asked Xiang Yunze, who couldn't wait.
As for the exchange price, Yunze and Zhabie bargained back and forth several times, and finally reached an agreement. Zhabie was full of joy, while Yunze smiled and said nothing.
Zhabie felt that he had taken advantage, but he didn't know that it was Yunze who took advantage. He lowered the price on cattle and sheep, and exchanged goods for 40% less than the market price.
It seems like 40% less is a lot, but Yunze's wholesale price is 50% less. Speaking of which, I still want to earn 10% more.
However, compared to buying it from others, you can save more than 40%. Those people only accept money and don’t need cattle, sheep or horses at all.
After the discussion, Zhabie told Yunze that he also had some spices, beef jerky and dried milk stored in the inn in Danyang City. Of course Yunze accepted these things.
Even Yunze was not prepared to let Zabie go all the way in vain and let him take away 50% of the goods first. The remaining goods will be delivered after Zhabie delivers the goods Yunze wants.
Yunze is not afraid that Zhabie will get away with the goods. If this person comes to his door, he will never lose a big profit because of a small gain. People who travel around like this know better what to do and what not to do.
Even if Zhabie swept away the things and couldn't bring them back, Yunze would only lose a batch of goods at most. But if Zhabie comes back, Yunze will have opened up the trade routes with the Mongols. Of course, it will also be the trade routes with the countries in the Western Regions.
He believed that soon, as long as Zhabie spread these things to the Western Regions, there would be keen businessmen who would smell business opportunities and come to him to do business.
When the business gets bigger, Yunze will spread the dishes bigger and bigger, and arrange manpower in various places. In places like the prairie, mineral veins are richer. There are also opportunities for development in the countries in the Western Region.
After sending Zabie away, Yunze asked someone to go to the inn with him to get the needed goods and then deliver them to the Ye family. I stayed and made new paper with the paper workers.
He would probably stay here for a few days to teach the papermakers new techniques.
During this period, he called Mo Sheng over and asked Mo Sheng to bring some spices and beef jerky from the Ye family.
Although there is no butter, lard can be used instead. As for the beef flavor, as long as the beef jerky is boiled, the beef flavor can still be tasted.
Of course, Yunze also asked people to go to several slaughtering shops. As long as there was beef slaughtering, he would buy butter, beef offal, etc. from them.
Yunze took advantage of the few days he spent in the fiefdom to teach Mo Sheng how to make hot pot base, and then taught her how to make hot pot.
Now just wait for Yunze to teach the chefs, and launch a hot pot set menu when it opens. The business will be unimaginably good. Ze will be advertised in newspapers all over the world.
