Three hundred and twenty gold is converted into silver taels, which is 3,200 taels of silver. In addition to the 500 gold that Shao Xi said he had paid to him before, that is five thousand taels, which adds up to 8,200 taels of silver.
This is just a transaction. In the eyes of the Qin family and his son, Shao Xi's transaction has earned them almost half of the Qin family's wealth.
This kind of stimulation cannot be described in words. The two men are extremely jealous now! If Shao Xi followed this approach, the Qin family would have made a profit from two transactions.
And from the jade treasures mentioned in their words, the father and his son naturally thought that what Shao Xi was selling at Taihe Trading Company this time should be part of the treasures from the Western Regions.
The treasures that Shao Xi excavated and transported back alone can already be sold for this price. If Shao Xi cooperates with the Qin family on large-scale excavations, they simply cannot imagine how much wealth it will be.
Through the conversation between shopkeeper Lu and Shao Xi, the Qin family father and son were basically certain that the Jiangnan Yunsha incident was indeed true, proving that the business Shao Xi had discussed with them before was indeed real.
You know that is twenty cars of cloud yarn! Even his Qin family does not have the strength to purchase and transport twenty loads of cloud yarn at once.
This shows how big Shao Xi’s business is!
At this time, Qin Yuezong has determined that Shao Xi's daring to do such a large-scale business of cloud yarn is indeed related to the treasures of the Western Regions. If there were no treasures for Shao Xi, he would never drag twenty carts of cloud yarn around at once. .
Moreover, he was basically certain that these twenty cars of cloud yarn were exactly what Shao Xi had said he wanted to trade privately with Nan Zhao before. It was self-evident how much he could earn from trading so many cloud yarns at one time.
However, the cunning Qin Yuezong still wanted to figure everything out before talking about it.
"I didn't expect Mr. Shao's business to be so big. He actually made nearly ten thousand taels of silver from Taihe Trading Company in one go. The twenty carts of Yunsha are also a big sum. It seems that my father and son are still experienced. It’s less, I’m really ashamed!”
Shao Xi glanced at Qin Yuezong, then turned to look at Qin Miao, and said with a smile: "Boss Qin asked this junior why he didn't cooperate with Taihe Trading Company before, have you seen it now?
"If I cooperate with Taihe Commercial Bank, I will indeed not be short of money, but the treasures obtained must be divided with Taihe Commercial Bank. And since it is a cooperative relationship, how can the treasure in my hand be sold at such a good price today?
"Therefore, this junior came to cooperate with your house this time just to maximize the benefits. Taihe Trading Company is very good at doing business. If you cooperate with them, you will always be taken advantage of by them."
Qin Yuezong agreed very much with Shao Xi's statement. He basically did not get any advantages from the cooperation with Taihe Trading Company for many years. After all, Taihe Trading Company was the largest trading company in the world and everything was based on profit.
The cooperation between the Qin family and Taihe Trading Company can only obtain some small profits, and the real profits are basically made by Taihe Trading Company. So what Shao Xi said at this time, Qin Yuezong also felt that it was very reasonable, and naturally he no longer had any doubts about Shao Xi. .
However, these twenty carts of cloud yarn still puzzled him, so he asked Shao Xi: "I have something unclear. Since Mr. Shao purchased these twenty carts of cloud yarn from Jiangnan, if my guess is right, such a large quantity It should not be sold to the Central Plains, but should be sent to Nan Zhao for private trading, but why not transport it directly from Jiangnan to the border between Jingyuan and Nan Zhao, but instead take it to Huaichang County and then transfer it to Nan Zhao? In this way , wouldn’t it just increase consumption and make the cost of cloud yarn higher?”
Shao Xi was not in a hurry to answer Qin Yuezong's question, but narrowed his eyes and smiled mysteriously.
After picking up the tea cup on the case and taking a sip, he slowly replied to Qin Yuezong: "The old man said that this batch of cloud yarn was shipped to Nan Zhao for a private transaction. Since it was a private transaction, how could it be shipped directly from Jiangnan to Nan Zhao? Border? Naturally, they wanted to cover up the public's eyes and deliberately transshipped it to the Central Plains boundary to make everyone think that this batch of cloud yarn was shipped to the Central Plains. When they arrived at Huaichang County, they turned south and sent it to the border of Nanzhao for private transactions.
"This is why I insist on not using the Taihe Trading Company caravan. Of course, I have to do this kind of thing myself. How can I do it by others? If Taihe Trading Company touches this trade route, what else will we make?"
Qin Yuezong and Qin Miao suddenly realized that they had never expected that this young man had thought so carefully. He had indeed put all his efforts and tricks into this business, and he was also cautious enough.
Although there is a cooperative relationship with Taihe Trading Company, the cooperation is only superficial, and the key steps are completed by oneself.
This allowed the father and son to further dispel their doubts about Shao Xi. They originally wanted to continue to get advice from Shao Xi, but they didn't expect that shopkeeper Lu came and put the answers to all the questions in front of them.
They doubted that anyone would doubt the shrewdness of Taihe Trading Company in doing business. Now Taihe Trading Company is indeed cooperating with Shao Xi, and Shao Xi is guarding against Taihe Trading Company at every turn during the cooperation process.
This is in line with the principle of seeking huge profits and not cooperating with too smart partners. If the partners are too smart, more profits will be shared.
But is it because he is stupid that he seeks cooperation with himself? The Qin family has developed to such an extent over the years, but no one would think that the Qin family is stupid!
But after thinking about it, it makes sense. After all, the initiative of these two businesses so far is still in Shao Xi's hands. It will be easier to find a partner with weaker financial resources than himself.
The information channel is in his own hands and he has stronger financial resources than the other party. Naturally, he has to feel more at ease when doing such a business. It seems that Shao Xi also takes a fancy to this aspect of the Qin family.
Some strength, but not too strong compared to myself. The initiative is in my own hands, and the power of profit distribution is also in my own hands.
Thinking of this, Qin Yuezong has made the final decision. He decided to cooperate with Shao Xi on these two transactions, of course, it was only a temporary cooperation.
As long as Yunsha's business makes money, they can further cooperate with Shao Xi to dig for treasures, and then take measures against Shao Xi.
In the eyes of Qin Yuezong, no matter how much money you make from the Yunsha business, it is not as good as the treasures from the Western Regions. Therefore, cooperating with Shao Xi in the Yunsha business in the early stage can be regarded as a bait for Shao Xi. Once a cooperative relationship is formed, the development of the treasure will naturally come naturally. .
And what he wanted was the treasure, and he was happy to do this kind of trickery. Now that it was confirmed that Shao Xi was indeed doing these two businesses, of course he had to get involved.
"It seems that Young Master Shao currently has a huge advantage in terms of financial resources and information from all parties. It is really a blessing for our Qin family to find cooperation with our Qin family. In this case, our Qin family has decided to cooperate with Young Master Let’s do these two transactions together, but the amount of money the young master is asking for is huge, and our Qin family can’t afford that much at the moment. Can the young master allow me and my son to raise the funds for a few days?”
Shao Xi saw that the fish had bitten the hook, so naturally he couldn't be too hasty to close the line. Since Qin Yuezong could raise money, it meant that they wanted to use their family wealth.
Judging from the current wealth of the Qin family, it is indeed impossible to come up with 10,000 taels of cash and banknotes. Even if all the money from various places is transferred to Huaichang, it will still not be enough. So the financing they are talking about may require mortgages. Property and real estate temporarily borrow some money to collect the required funds.
If the father and son were more greedy and pledged all their wealth, they would have been able to get together seventeen or eight thousand taels. This was exactly the trap Shao Xi had designed for them.
Who do they go to if they want to borrow money? Naturally, he went to Taihe Trading Company, which had strong financial resources, and Shao Xi had already made a plan with Shopkeeper Lu to provide the Qin family with the most favorable loan terms, stimulating them to pledge all their family property.
As long as the father and son dare to risk their lives for the treasures of the Western Region, Shao Xi will make them lose everything and lose everything.
"For such a large sum of money, it may take a junior to raise it for a day or two. The old man's request is not excessive, so the junior will go back and wait for news from the old man and come back to visit in two days."
When Qin Yuezong saw that Shao Xi was about to leave, they felt a little anxious. When Shao Xi came, they felt that his origin was unknown and were not at ease with Shao Xi. Now they are sure that Shao Xi does hold the treasure of Wuhai Kingdom in the Western Region. If this is the case Let him go, what if he regrets and doesn't come back?
It is better to simply leave this person at home, which is equivalent to leaving the God of Wealth at home, and to avoid any extra troubles, which is safer.
Thinking of this, Qin Yuezong persuaded Shao Xi to stay, and said very enthusiastically: "Master Shao has come all the way to Huaichang City, how can he stay in an inn again? Since you and I are now in a cooperative relationship, naturally we have to Please invite Mr. Shao to live in our home. After all, we are no longer outsiders now!
"It's no longer the case that the young master's twenty caravans of clouds have been kept at Taihe Trading Company. After all, the young master does not use Taihe Trading Company's caravan, and occupying his yard will inevitably cause some criticism. Why don't we just leave those twenty cars? Yunsha came to my Qin house. There is a lot of space in the backyard for the young master to park his carriage and horses, so that my father and son can raise money with peace of mind. I wonder what Mr. Shao wants?"
Shao Xi was overjoyed when he heard this and glanced at Old Wu secretly from the corner of his eye. The meaning couldn't be more obvious. Before, Old Wu was worried about how to sneak into the Qin family to rescue Wei Ping. Shao Xi had told him that he had a way to save the Qin family. Leaving himself to live in the mansion, everything seems to be going very smoothly now.
After deliberately hesitating for a moment and pretending to be a little concerned, Shao Xi finally pretended to be reluctant and agreed to stay at the Qin family's house after the Qin family's father and son enthusiastically persuaded him to stay.
Before that, I need to go to Taihe Trading Company and bring the twenty carts of cloud yarn to Qin's house.
Lao Wu still doesn't quite understand why Shao Xi wants to bring twenty cars of clouds into Qin's house. What is the purpose of this huge torment of dead people?
Shao Xi kept secret about this and only said that he would know when the time comes.
