Kang Chengdong shook his clothes, stomped his feet, shook off the snow on his body, and stepped into the hall of the fur yard. As soon as he entered the hall, a man in a green coat and a green hat stepped forward and arched his hand: "Where is this guest from?" What kind of business are you going to do? ”

Kang Chengdong looked at the person who came, who was in his thirties and very capable, and asked, "Who are you?" Exploring my details like this, I'm afraid I'm not a good person. I've come here to watch, don't ask. ”

The man smiled and handed over a famous thorn, and said: "Down is He Kun, the tooth man of this freight yard, this is a famous thorn, and it is made by the state yamen." According to the new system of the freight yard, anyone who comes here to do business must be handled, photographed and traded by the tooth people. ”

After speaking, he pointed to a white wall next to the entrance, on which was pasted a list.

Kang Chengdong was suspicious, took the famous thorn, brought his entourage, and went to the white wall to watch. The current list is more detailed than the previous notice, clearly stipulating the rules and regulations that the merchants of the North and the Central Plains must abide by when doing business here, the various taboos, and the services provided by the freight yard. In particular, the merchants are no longer required to set up stalls, as is the case in other places, but the goods to be bought and sold are reported to the supervisor of the goods through the tooth people. Of course, businessmen can choose to make this information public and not, and can choose to remain anonymous, but private transactions are not allowed.

After reading the list text, Kang Chengdong said to the people around him: "Blame, it's only been a few days, and there are so many rules, which are completely different from what I heard before." Let's go talk to the people of the tooth about how the business is going to be done here. ”

After speaking, he took the name thorn and returned to He Kun's side, and said to him: "Since you are a tooth man allowed by the yamen of the freight yard, you must be very familiar with the rules of this transaction. Let's talk about how it is different from other places, whether it is convenient or inconvenient. ”

He Kun said with a smile: "Convenient, of course it is convenient, and Bingzhou is the most convenient fur yard in the world to do business." It doesn't matter where the merchants come from, they can find us tooth people when they arrive. How many goods you have, how much you want to sell, how much rest of the goods you will exchange for, just tell us, and in the blink of an eye, we can find the right business for you. You don't have to waste your time here, and you don't have to worry about being cheated here, all the transactions are guaranteed by the state yamen. As long as you trade with us, you can rest assured. ”

Kang Chengdong laughed when he heard this: "What a big thing to say, the businessmen here are like carp crossing the river, and they have all kinds of business, do you know what everyone wants to buy and sell?" Just know, there are different colors, different prices, how to make a number! ”

He Kun smiled and raised his hand and said, "It seems that Yuanwai is the first time to come to Bingzhou, and he doesn't know anything about this place." It doesn't matter, come with me, and you'll know how we do business here. ”

Kang Chengdong looked around, the people in the hall were either leisurely or anxious, some were sitting quietly, some were turning around, and the accents were chaotic. Curiously, there were no goods here, but a large number of merchants were concentrated.

As He Kun entered the hall, as soon as he turned the corner, he saw a large platform on the side. Walking forward, it turned out that there were all kinds of goods on the table, including tea, porcelain, lacquerware, incense, and even pearl treasures. Next to the platform, there stood a soldier in military uniform, not smiling, as if a wooden pillar was there.

Lingkang Chengdong stepped forward, and He Kun said: "Look at it, there are all kinds of goods here, all of which are divided into grades, and the prices behind them are on the market every day, and they are different every day." What goods you want to buy, what condition you want, just write down the grade here. ”

led Kang Chengdong to take a general look around, and then turned to the other side. I saw several wide white walls side by side, with all kinds of information listed on them, but they were all the names of the tooth people. Under the name of each tooth person, there are two kinds of buying and selling, from raw and cooked skin, to fragrant tea silk, each grade, everything.

After letting Kang Chengmo finish reading it, He Kun said: "Do you understand the outside staff?" Just tell me how many goods you have, what you buy and sell, and I'll be able to get your business done in no time. The color level is set by the Yamen people, together with us tooth people, and there is no falsehood. ”

Kang Chengdong looked at Bai Bi and was dumbfounded. He has been in business for many years, and he has walked several places along the border yards, but he has never seen anyone doing such a business. Originally, I thought that I had brought nearly 2,000 sheepskins this time, and I was a great merchant, and I didn't know when the transaction would be completed. Unexpectedly, on this white wall, two thousand raw hides are nothing at all, He Kun is right, and the transaction can be completed in an instant.

After settling down, Kang Chengdong found He Kun's name, and saw that there were more than 100 raw skins to sell under his name, in addition to a lot of goods such as incense and porcelain, and there were even more than 500 cooked skins for sale, he couldn't help but feel shocked. This person is not inconspicuous at all, but he doesn't want the goods in his name to be worth almost ten times as much as his own, isn't he a big man in the city of Bingzhou?

At the moment, he put away his contempt and bowed his hand to He Kun: "I don't want you to have so many goods under your name, I have been in business for many years, and it is rare for such a large amount of money to be outside." If you offend just now, don't go to your heart. ”

He Kun said with a smile: "The outsiders joke, the goods under the name belong to the guests, and I just help sell them." If you also ask me to sell on my behalf, I will immediately add a lot to my name, what a surprise! ”

Kang Chengdong said: "That's not the case, you don't have a family property as a guarantee, how can the yamen allow you to do such a big business!" ”

"The officials misunderstood, I was originally a member of the Yamen, and it was the Yamen who guaranteed the transaction. Unlike other places, all transactions must be supervised by the yamen, and there is no loophole to exploit. We, the tooth people, are just helping you with your business. ”

Kang Chengdong still didn't understand: "If my goods are in your name, what should I do?" Aren't you afraid that what I said will not match the goods I actually have? Or maybe you've taken over the business, but I've already sold it to someone else. ”

He Kun shook his head again and again: "There is nothing to do." If the official wants to hang it in my name, he needs to sign a contract with me, and the yamen will use the seal there. After the contract is signed, I will work with you to deliver the goods to the yard. At that time, the people of our own yamen worked with us to count the quantity of goods, determine the fineness of the goods, and then put them into storage. After that, the staff only needs to draw a pledge on the sales contract, and there is no need to go to the freight yard. When the transaction is completed, we will go to the yard to pick up the goods you want to buy, and we will have nothing to do with it. ”

Kang Chengdong listened, opened his mouth and stared at his eyes, he didn't expect that there would be such a way of trading. To exaggerate, as long as He Kun signs the tooth man contract, the goods he brings will be sold. It's just that it's hard to get cash and buy other goods. With the abundance of goods here, this process does not take much time. Anyway, the color grade is fixed, and it saves countless efforts, and the quantity can be picked up quickly.

It took a long time for Kang Chengdong to think through the transaction process. He breathed a sigh of relief: "It turns out that this is how business is done here, and it is really convenient." It's just that this time I brought a lot of goods, and it was the first time I came, so I didn't dare to settle down in a hurry. How about I wait for two days to understand the rules here, and then make a contract with you? Don't worry, if this business goes well, I will come here to find you in the future! ”

He Kun kept smiling: "It's okay, many first-time guests are like this." If you want to stay outside, there is a familiar inn outside me, how about introducing you? I'm a regular customer and there's a discount there. ”
