Poor family mother and son

Chapter 296 I Bite You and Ask You If It Hurts?

The black butler quickly cleared his mind, no matter how much you pay now, it is cash on delivery anyway, and this product will not let you arrive!

The black butler secretly gritted his teeth, but he had an expression of "you're right" on his face: "Well, 1 taels is 1 taels."

Xiaobao said again: "Are you in a hurry? When will it be delivered? If you are not in a hurry, give me some time. We don't have a big ship, and a small ship can't transport these goods. We rush to build a ship, and we can leave in about three months!"

three months!The master wants your ship and sailors now!
"Three months? Can't you understand? We'll send it to Kyoto in one month!" the black butler scolded.

Xiaobao: "Oh... so, look, it's not that we don't accept this business, we want to ship it to you within a month, but there is no ship...

How about this, let’s buy ready-made ones. It is estimated that one will cost 2000 taels of silver. Your batch is not heavy, but it takes up too much space. We have to buy five. You will pay 1 taels first, and then pay the rest on delivery. . "

The black butler gritted his teeth: "Isn't this stealing money?!" Return, return "just do it"!It seems like you are very tolerant!

Xiaobao shrugged his shoulders, as if he was a little afraid of him: "I... I didn't grab it. If you want, we can also rent a boat. The monthly rent for a boat is 300 taels, and the round trip is two months. The deposit 800 taels..."

This is more expensive than buying a boat!
The black butler was about to scold with his eyes wide open, Xiaobao was so frightened that he finished his sentence in a stuttering voice: "I don't know if I can rent it or not..."

It seems that I can't bear to let the child not be tied to the wolf, forget it, it seems that the money that should be spent cannot be saved.

In order to achieve the final goal, the black steward said cruelly: "Forget it, I will pay you 1 taels first, and I don't care whether you can get the ship or not, anyway, I can't delay my goods!"

Xiaobao said again: "Butler Yu, you and Steward Hei signed the escort bill, the insurance premium is 1 taels, and the boat is paid 1 taels in advance, so the total charge is 2 taels. After the escort trip is over, it will be settled together with the shipping fee to buy the boat." money."

Yu Chaoyi raised his hand and pushed back his shocked jaw.

Just say that this child is not an ordinary person!
"What?!" The black butler wanted to vomit blood, "2 taels!"

Xiaobao was "scared" again: "Either, or you wait, we can build the boat in as soon as three months... We don't have cash to buy a boat..."

Yu Chaoyi "makes up the knife": "It's hard to embarrass Lord Hei for taking out so much money all at once, why don't you go to another house to see?"

Chu Yuan and Xiao Sining looked at each other: These two are a perfect match!
The two couldn't help showing admiration to Yu Chaoyi together: good cooperation!Good eloquence!Make up knife expert!No blood is seen in killing, and there is no discussion about killing people!

Xiaobao personally filled out the dart ticket, Yu Chaoyi and Hei Butler wrote the dart list, both sides stamped their names on the cards, and finally Xiaobao also stamped the big seal of Sanshun Escort Bureau.

Chu Yuan and Xiao Sining thought about it: We are together every day, how does Xiaobao know these market conditions?

How do you know, it seems!
As early as during the Spring Festival, Xiaobao started to pay attention to these things when he decided to open an escort agency.

The smell of wine is still afraid that the alley is deep. Mother has so many good things, how can they sell for money if they are not transported to various places?How can you be safe without your own transport team?
It's not enough to rely on the brothers at home to deliver the goods one after another.

Both the dart ticket and the dart list have been signed, which means that the contract has come into effect.

Xiaobao immediately took someone to inspect the goods.

This is also a risky thing: after approving all the porcelain with the black steward, you have to sign and pledge it, and keep it in the Sanshun Escort Bureau before going on the road.

If the porcelain is damaged during this period, you have to start deducting money.

Fortunately, the ship was ready-made, and under the leadership of Ping Jian, it was directly loaded on the ship. Xiaobao simply lived on the ship, and took care of it with more than [-] brothers and the guys from the Escort Bureau. ".

Xiaobao asked Ping Jian and the others to dig holes in the wooden board according to the size of the base of each piece of porcelain, insert the porcelain one by one, and slip the seams with hay. This is how the Chu family soybean oil is transported.

All the bottles and cans are filled with soil, and then these wooden boards are fixed on the ship board with large steel nails, so that they cannot be separated even by a major earthquake.

This way of transportation saves wood compared to other bodyguards who customize wooden boxes for each piece of porcelain and then fill them with hay.Moreover, these boards can be used repeatedly, which is also considered cost-saving.

Ping Jian sent Li Hu to Xiao Bao.

Li Hu has good medical skills, and he can take care of everyone's health problems on the road. If he is injured in a fight with others, there is someone who can heal the injury.

Of course, the most important thing is to assign it to Xiaobao, because Xiaobao has to follow the darts himself.

No one can persuade this matter, Xiaobao is very firm when he says it.

Xiaobao predicted that fights and killings would be inevitable along the way, otherwise why would people dig holes so hard?

My mother once said: "Where there are people, there are rivers and lakes."

Although it wasn't her who said this, she heard it, but no one has heard of it, it was my mother who said it!Very reasonable words!
Xiaobao decided to "travel into the rivers and lakes" to learn about gangs and see who they are.

Xiaobao didn't let Yu Chaoyi go out to find out who the black butler was, but let Li Hu go.As the shopkeeper, Yu Chaoyi is familiar, so it might be difficult to inquire.

On the contrary, Li Hu has been bored in the boat workshop, and no one knows him.

The information Li Hu brought back was not certain. He only found out that the Tushan Black Porcelain Kiln did not refer to one porcelain kiln, but many porcelain kilns, most of which were monopolized by the Kong Pugao family, the richest man in the south of the Yangtze River.

However, there are also a small number of small porcelain kilns with other owners.

So Li Hu can only say that the black butler "maybe, probably, probably, almost" is the housekeeper of the Kong family.

That is, the Kong family dug a hole for the Sanshun Escort.

The Escort business has been difficult to do since ancient times.

The entrusting party was worried that the bodyguard would rob or hide the goods, and the bodyguard would have to bear the risks of bad weather, robbery by bandits, etc., and might be owed money.

The entrusting party thinks that its goods are one-way, and the Escort pays the round-trip cost, which in turn leads to difficulties in pricing.

Moreover, for long-distance freight, because the value, distance, and time limit of the goods are different, the delivery fee of the escort agency is unified. The client wants to reduce the cost, and the escort agency wants to make money, so they can only make a fuss about the insurance premium.

In the past, the orders received by Sanshun Escort were not very large, and the Escort itself was also small, and merchants were unwilling to pay extra premiums, so they couldn't get enough of the money, and all they earned was word of mouth and hard-earned money.

If it weren't for the transportation by water and land, the Sanshun Escort might not be able to operate.

This time Xiaobao first forced the other party to take out 2 taels of silver, which can be regarded as reassuring Yu Chaoyi.

He was reluctant not to accept this big order, the hundred and ten brothers wanted to eat.

But he also saw that this was a pit, so he hesitated.

Now there is a boss who personally takes the order and escorts the darts in person, which can be regarded as a guarantee for the brothers.

Xiao Bao shook the stack of bank notes in his hands, 2 taels, does this bite hurt you?snort!

With the support of the wood from Mother's side, the price is low. Now Pingjian's shipbuilding workshop has reduced the cost a lot, basically 500 taels for a medium-sized cargo ship.

Moreover, the oak that Chu Qing brought over there was much better than the pine used before. It was hard, strong, and corrosion-resistant. It was really the best choice for shipbuilding.

1 taels of silver, five ships, and each of them saved 500 taels.

In fact, four ships are enough for this batch of goods, but five ships are needed if five ships are agreed, Xiaobao decided to disguise one of them well.

What a deal!
