Chapter 30 Prices
Wang Hengyue was not in a hurry: "There is an old saying in China, it is called to open the sky and pay back the money on the ground." Such a gun has so many shortcomings that it can only be deceived by the layman, and at most ten taels of silver is about the same! ”
"Ten taels?" Kleiman's eyes widened suddenly, and he kept saying "no, no" in his mouth: "I can't even earn back the capital." Nineteen taels, this is the biggest deal! ”
"Whew!"
Talking about the price, Wang Hengyue no longer talked about half of his feelings: "You can sell it to others for nineteen taels, and now tell me this price?" Ten taels, no more money! ”
said, and viciously threatened: "You have to sell it today, and if you don't sell it, you have to sell it!" And if I'm not satisfied with the price, I'll make the whole world know about the ugly thing of you dead foreign devils taking fakes and passing them off as genuine! ”
Kleiman was dumbfounded, how could there be such a business in the world?
If this matter is really spread, what if I and my German partner still have so much inventory? If this bad reputation spreads and the truth is discovered, this batch of goods will be really finished, and even the reputation of Fan Lixi's company will be greatly damaged. Swallowed his saliva: "Eighteen twenty or fifty silver dollars, there can be no less." ”
"Ten taels!" Who would have thought that Wang Hengyue would bite this price.
Everyone can play scoundrels, since you foreign devils take us as fools, then Lao Tzu has no harm in eating your weakness, and let's kill it ruthlessly!
Kleiman's weakness was really caught by Wang Hengyue!
While constantly giving in, he didn't let go. Pete persuaded left and right, one time he would be Kleiman's mediator, and the other time he would say good things to Wang Hengyue, and finally let Wang raise the price slightly.
This bargain lasted for more than an hour, and then the price of thirteen taels was finally negotiated.
Wang Hengyue sighed: "Kleiman, you are deliberately blackmailing, and you know that the officers of this team are in urgent need of guns." The officer of this team has suffered a big loss! ”
Kleiman almost vomited blood, who suffered the big loss?
If it weren't for the fact that this royal officer threatened to publicize the fact that the committee gun was passed off as a Mauser, and was a lure to have a good deal to do in the future, he would not have done such a deal if he was killed.
Since Fan Lixi entered China, when has it ever done such a dumb business?
Now this Wang team officer actually said that he suffered a loss?
At the moment, it was agreed that 250 guns and matching ammunition would be delivered, and it was stated that they must be delivered within ten days, which Kleiman was not worried about, and those guns were now in Chengdu.
After the rifle deal was negotiated, Wang Hengyue was greatly relieved, and immediately ordered a Makqin machine gun, and Kleiman recommended the Haqikaith machine gun to him, but the Wang team officer only liked Makqin, and Kleiman could only give up.
This time, there was not much controversy over the price, and a machine gun with all its accessories was negotiated for 2,900 yuan. Originally, Wang Hengyue wanted to buy two, but when he thought that he could afford this heavy machine gun, he couldn't afford it.
Once Maxim is equipped, there will be a qualitative difference in ammunition consumption. 10,000 rounds of ammunition could have given a rifleman a battle base in a row, but Makqin could only fight for eighteen minutes! Although he was greedy for Makqin's high-speed shooting and powerful firepower, Wang Hengyue could only give up when he thought of the silver in his pocket.
"You get me another batch of Mauser pistols." Wang Hengyue said again: "It is the self-obtained pistol that we Chinese call it." Each gun should be equipped with 500 bullets, and the replacement parts are complete. ”
Kleiman agreed, originally wanting to recommend American goods, but thinking of what the royal officer said, it was better for him to argue less.
Thinking that he would have a unit all equipped with shell guns in the future, Wang Hengyue swallowed a big mouthful of saliva.
Since the deal has been discussed, Wang Hengyue is really different, and warmly invited Kleiman to dine together. Kleiman arrived here from Chengdu, and his stomach was indeed hungry, so he did not refuse.
"Wang, you are very good at business, and I can't make any money in this business." Kleiman shrugged his shoulders and said helplessly.
"If you can't make money, you still have money to make." Wang Hengyue laughed a few times: "There will be many opportunities for you and me to cooperate in the future, and there are opportunities for you to make money, as long as you don't dislike me for being a small team officer!" ”
“no、no。” Kleiman said in a loud voice: "You little captain, you must have great achievements in the future, we have a good start, albeit not very pleasant. ”
"My lord, something is wrong!"
was talking happily there, Li Yifeng hurriedly ran in, and when he saw that there were guests, he was silent.
"Tell me, what's the matter?" Wang Hengyue didn't care.
Li Yifeng hesitated: "My lord, just now the Zhao family sent someone to report that there has been an epidemic in several places around Rong County recently, and the teacher and several local gentry have purchased a batch of medicinal materials. But he was robbed by the bandit Lu Baoyin! ”
"What?" Wang Hengyue suddenly stopped the movement in his hand: "Robbed? ”
"Yes! It's strange to say, originally Lu Baoyin didn't rob medicinal herbs and other things, and we specially hired someone to escort us, but I didn't expect something to happen at this time. The teacher asked people to say that other things were robbed and robbed, but this batch of medicinal materials was used to save lives! ”
"Bastard thing! Don't rob it when you don't do it at other times, but when Lao Tzu took office, it was robbed, and this is not clear about not giving Lao Tzu face? Wang Hengyue was immediately furious.
Kleiman said: "Lord Wang, bandits are the most hateful, and if they are allowed to do harm, they will cause great harm to the local generals, and the merchants are not willing to do business here. Since Lord Wang is a soldier, it is your responsibility to eradicate the bandits. ”
"Whoever doesn't give face to Lao Tzu, Lao Tzu doesn't give him face." Wang Hengyue sneered a few times.
Originally, I heard the names of the inferior gentry Yu Ruixiang and Lu Baoyin, and I made up my mind to clean them up, plus that Lu Baoyin is Lu Baogen's younger brother, sooner or later there will be a head-on conflict, and now there is such a blockade, there is no way to delay it any longer.
Not to mention that Zhao Xi is kind to himself, just to say that he is the "highest military governor" of Rong County, and he also has this responsibility.
It's just that the new army has only been trained for a few days, and its weapons are still in Chengdu, so there are only a few guns, and it pulls such a team of people to fight bandits, and if it fails, I am afraid that it will be a huge psychological blow to the new army that has just been established.
Gritting his teeth, he couldn't care so much, he had just beaten the foreigner Opiyin, and the people's hearts were greatly boosted, so he took this opportunity to fight the bandits again, and he would have a firm foothold in Rong County!
"Order, Xie Shuixiang will be the first row of the first shed, and Xie Shuixiang will personally lead the team first!" Wang Hengyue thought for a moment: "The rest of the departments, including the armed guards, all set off with the officers of this team, and Lao Tzu doesn't believe that these bandits have three heads and six arms!" ”
Kleiman hurriedly said: "Officer Wang, please take me to visit your army!" ”
