But Wang Zhaojing talked with Xu Housheng and Zhu Xingshu, and made arrangements for Li Laohai's itinerary for the second day, there are many places to have fun in Hejiazhuang, which is unique compared to Qingjiangpu, but Li Laohai's mind is obviously not on it, he sees that Zhao Jin's mind is very anxious, but the guest is as he pleases, and he has to be patient and obey the arrangement, and the place where Xu Housheng led him was a warehouse.

Li Laohai's nephews had the intention to go around more places, they thought they would take them to play, but they didn't expect to lead them to the warehouse, which was surrounded by warehouses and yards and other places, which made people very confused, Xu Housheng did not lead them in, but turned to the side of the warehouse, where there were rows of shelves, and the shelves were placed with armor, swords, weapons and various iron parts used on the ship.

Seeing this, Li Laohai and his entourage were stunned for a moment, and then they became interested, there are no novel styles such as armor and weapons and iron parts on the ship, but they are more regular than the common ones, and the nephews of the Li family went up to watch and touch first, but Li Laohai turned to Zhu Xingshu and said: "You should tell the details of the big gang." ”

Zhu Xingshu was not afraid, and replied with a smile: "I have always remembered the kindness of the big help, and I saw that it could help, so I put it out for you to see." ”

Li Laohai and Zhu Xingshu didn't say much after joking, his mind was also all on those iron armor and equipment, and his previous sons and nephews each saw that their eyes were shining, and they took it down from time to time to touch it, looking like they couldn't put it down.

"This knife is really good, much better than those bundles of knives!"

"Look at this armor, it doesn't look like the armor of the ghost, I think it's lighter than the one used by the ghost, and I can't help it if I don't have a firearm!"

"Nonsense, if the ghost can't break any armor, I'm afraid those iron sand on the ocean can't beat you."

"Speaking of which, the sheet metal parts on our ships are very corroded, and it's time to replace them, you can bring some back this time, the dragon head and a few uncles will definitely be happy to see it."

Li Laohai's sons and nephews talked a lot, their faces were full of elated expressions, but Li Laohai was very calm, he picked up a four-foot knife, this knife is slightly wider than the blade of the knife, the back of the knife is slightly thicker, but the shape is not bad, such a weapon is suitable for jumping and fighting on the ship, and at the same time it is stronger than the easily broken knife, don't look at Li Laohai's one-armed, he can use the knife quite experienced, he waved forward and then swung his hand, the knife flashed between the wrist turns, and several Xuzhou volunteers near the warehouse showed a look of admiration on their faces, These two times are not used for ten or twenty years of fighting.

Putting the knife back on the shelf, Li Laohai glanced at Zhu Xingshu not far away, smiled and said, "Do you really know what kind of family we want to use, you made this knife?" ”

"Knowing that Uncle Hai is still coming over here, I thought about making a batch, how about it, let's start it appropriately!" Zhu Xingshu asked with a smile, Li Laohai nodded, but said quite solemnly: "It's rare that this crank is so neatly made, and you don't get tired when you shake your wrist, it's really good, I regret sending you over." ”

Without waiting for Zhu Xingshu to speak, Li Laohai asked again: "How much silver does this knife sell for, and how much do you want for a hundred and a thousand at a time?" ”

Zhu Xingshu and Xu Housheng beside him glanced at each other, Xu Housheng nodded, Zhu Xingshu said with a smile: "Uncle Hai, if you don't send me over, you really can't make such a good knife, Uncle Hai will give it to you if you like this knife, if you buy it in large quantities, this one will cost three taels of silver." ”

"You just say three taels, I won't bargain with you, and I deliberately leave a balance for me to talk down, isn't it?" Li Laohai scolded with a smile, everyone used to know each other, and they did get along very casually, but the next moment Li Laohai and his nephews were stunned, and they all looked at Zhu Xingshu in amazement, and then looked at Xu Housheng beside him.

"The hundreds and thousands of knives we want, the steel-edged blades must be the same as this knife, can we show a good look, and the others will be fooled with bad goods?" Li Laohai's brows furrowed suddenly, but he stared at Xu Housheng and spoke, he knew who was in charge here.

Xu Housheng looked at it, stepped forward and said: "I can't make every knife the same as this one, but it's not necessarily a little worse or a little better, if you want to buy it, Uncle Li, you can check it with a handle at that time, if there is a bad one, let's return it." ”

As soon as I heard the first sentence, everyone's faces showed abruptness and disdain, thinking that the façade samples put out were always better, but they didn't expect the other party to say this, this is a full confidence to provide good goods, Li Laohai didn't make a sound, and a young nephew beside him couldn't help but ask: "That Xu Gongzi, Lao Zhu, the bundles of Japanese knives are sold for three or five dollars of silver, and those that are lower than this price can only be used for decoration, your knife is made of such good materials, but it is sold so cheaply, what do you earn?" If you sell us rotten goods? No, there was no reason to lie to us. ”

This one spoke directly, and was glared at by Li Laohai halfway through before he changed his words, but there is really no reason to deceive, each of them is a hero, although a hundred and thousands of handfuls cost a lot of silver, but they don't look at each other's eyes.

"Fourth Brother Zheng, the sword is a knife, our knife in Xuzhou is the knife in Xuzhou, you have also seen the scene of Jinye, can he ruin his reputation for this little thing? Besides, Xu Gongzi said very clearly just now, you just pick, return the rotten goods, and take the good ones away. This time, Zhu Xingshu's smile was a little solemn.

Having said that, it's a question of whether to buy or not, at least don't worry too much about the quality now, Li Laohai is still silent, but his nephews are excited, pick up the various items on the shelf and ask, Zhu Xingshu quoted the price one by one, all of which are lower than they estimated, and the quality is better or even exceeded, which makes Li Laohai's children and nephews seem to have entered a treasure.

"What does Master Jin want us to do? How did you take such a big favor? Li Laohai thought he had found the reason and asked in a deep voice.

Over there, Xu Housheng smiled when he heard this, shook his head and said: "Uncle Li, as long as we earn your silver for these iron parts, even if this batch is given away for nothing, you will have great damage at sea, and we can't afford to send it in batches!" ”

Li Laohai glanced at Zhu Xingshu again, he knew that there were ten joints of iron at sea* This Zhu Xingshu said, the sea is very windy and humid, and there is a lot of salt in the wind and humidity, and iron tools are easy to rust and damage, plus sailing at sea, self-protection or looting, there are many times to use force, and the losses in the battle are greater, but it is not easy to obtain supplies.

Foshan, Guangdong is the second largest iron-producing center outside Xuzhou in the Ming Dynasty, but the sea lord of Fujian and the sea lord of Guangdong have always been hostile, it is difficult for the Fujian gang to obtain the supply of iron tools here, and the quality and price of the Wa Kingdom and the Nanyang side are high, and the good goods are not nothing, but the price is often extremely high, and there is no good thing to spend at a high price, which is why Zhu Xingshu is placed on the Nanyang side, just for the convenience of the line and plan to build it yourself in the future.

So after Xuzhou Chen listed so many iron tools, Li Laohai was tempted here, even more so after knowing the price, such a price even if you come here by boat to ship is also a lot of money, you must know that in the ocean near Guangdong, if you want to get weapons, it will cost several times more than the original price, many small maritime merchants in Guangdong rely on this to make a fortune, and even then again, it is profitable to sell here, such a high-quality and large-scale iron tool, I don't know how many people need it inside and outside the Ming Dynasty.

It's just that this Li Laohai has experienced a lot of things, and knows that there is no banquet in the world that eats for nothing, and such a low price can maintain such a high quality, and it is said that he has to make money, how is this possible, no matter how you don't know how to do it, you can know it when you compare it with the price obtained elsewhere, things must be demons, there must be something wrong, but the conditions that the other party said are equivalent to blocking their own retreat, and ending with him for a few short times, this Xu Housheng is not a person who cheats, although Zhu Xingshu is said to be a hippie smile, but he is not a businessman, Both of them are very sincere at the moment.

What the hell is going on? Li Laohai hesitated for a while, but gritted his teeth and said: "Since it's all said so, no matter how hypocritical the old man is, he won't be a man, and when he leaves, he will prepare a batch of goods, and the number will be given to you at night!" ”

Xu Housheng showed an excited look on his face, smiled and agreed again and again, this eagerness made Li Laohai and his nephews suspicious, but at this time, he couldn't say it, just continued to watch and ask.

After reading it carefully, and asking it carefully, Xu Housheng and the others had already prepared to take out the list, but unfortunately Li Laohai had several nephews, only one of them knew how to write numbers, and the others couldn't understand it, although they didn't set anything on the spot, but everyone knew that there would definitely be no less to buy.

After reading it here, I had to take Li Laohai and his party to the bazaar and salt market in Xuzhou to have a look, Xu Housheng and Zhu Xingshu were left behind, Xu Housheng said with a low smile: "My brother-in-law always said that this skill is silver, at that time I thought it was wages, but I didn't expect it to be like this." ”

Zhao Ziying craftsmen naturally know the outside price, there are Qingjiang City and Yu family news, Zhao Ziying is the most aware of the cost and selling price of various goods in the world, naturally will not do a loss of business, in fact, Zhao Ziying craftsmen hall in this iron business also has huge profits, although it is the craftsman hall people come forward to receive, the price is determined by the people of Yunshan Xing, the same iron will be sold on the market in the future, will not be much higher than this price.

If Li Laohai and his entourage knew that the price they thought was very low was the market price, they would definitely be even more shocked, and they couldn't imagine that Zhao Ziying still had a lot of profits on it, especially when they went south and north, and the price of the Ming Dynasty and the foreign ocean was counted, which made them even more unexpected
