The Secretary’s Careful Thoughts

Maybe the sunshine in the south shines on the wind in the north.

Maybe time is blown away and there will be no trace ever since.

Maybe there is only an unforgettable person left in the story. Maybe it was Chu Qing who laughed at me in his dream last night.

Hearing the excited report from the workers, Zheng Chunqiu raised his eyelids listlessly and responded through the thick car curtain: "Come on."

The laborer was stunned: Even if we can’t eat meat, are you not greedy, sir? You still don’t believe in this evil!

"Sir! Don't we buy some medicinal materials? There are so many brothers who can't get up!" The laborer stood straight outside the curtain of the car.

Since the adults didn't plan to speak, he didn't have to bend down carefully.

This is a good reason.

Even if you don’t have to buy medicinal materials for these clean food, right? There are so many lives outside.

Zheng Chunqiu had to get up and get out of the carriage and go to the secretary of the Ministry of Revenue and the imperial physician - what medicine to buy and how much to pay for? The fourth prince was not here, someone had to discuss it.

The slope is still the same slope, and there are still so many cars, but the team leader changed a young man.

The leader Meng Wu didn't plan to stop now. He still waved his whip into the air, swinging his proud expression in the spring breeze, and on the grass.

After they discussed the issue, Meng Wu's convoy had already bypassed their slope.

"Oh, stop!" the imperial physician shouted quickly.

The medicinal materials I bought from the Baoqingsheng caravan last time were very good and very symptomatic. The symptoms of half of the people were almost cured.

Unfortunately, the second group sent by the imperial court did not carry any medicinal materials.

When he got in contact with the caravan, the imperial physician greedily looked through the sacks of medicinal materials, and the secretary blushed and discussed the price with Meng Wu.

"No!" Meng Wu stumbled his neck and refused quite simply.

Secretary: "We want more. Look, if there are so many people, you can't be cheaper?"

Meng Wu: "No!"

Secretary: "Why are you so unreasonable? We are all from Daxuan. You can't catch a sheep and try to pull out your hair!"

Meng Wu: "Pick up the hair? Bah! You don't even see which sheep you are worthy of. Let me tell you the truth, just these trucks of medicinal materials, who are not selling them? I have to sell them to you?

I fucked the waffles from the Worths. They didn't even fart, and they thought it was cheap!"

Secretary: "Then you are so bragging! They buy one or half a pound, and you can't make a few dollars if you spend a lot of effort, but how many people are here?

Looking back, more people will come here, isn’t they a big deal?”

Meng Wu: "Look at how big you are, you should be an official, right? You have never seen the world? Are you so many people here?

OK, I won’t talk nonsense to you. If you are cheap, you will go to whom you want, don’t delay my journey!”

Secretary: "..."

The secretary was very sorry that he did not reach a long-term cooperation agreement with the Chu family caravan last time, because after all, he paid out the public silver notes.

But there could have been another operating mode for this matter.

If the court comes forward to buy supplies, it must first make a budget, and the budget knowledge will be great.

Where to buy, how many types to buy, and how much freight geometry can be made. This is what the so-called "floating" means.

For example, officials discussed: Since medicinal materials are needed, I think I can purchase goods from the Zhao Family Medicinal Materials Store, where there are a complete range.

Others will say: A certain imperial doctor in the palace has been operating medicinal materials for generations. If we purchase goods from him, we can get kickbacks.

Someone suggested: You cannot purchase goods from one place, so the price we quoted will not be able to increase. If it does not increase, what are the benefits of our discussions so hard?

To see where to buy, you have to discuss for a long time, and then choose a plan that will make everyone the most profitable.

Then discuss how many medicinal materials to buy and what quality medicinal materials to buy.

The higher the quality of medicinal materials, the higher the price, so the ones reported are all high-quality medicinal materials, and the actual purchase is low-quality.

After discussing all these things, the budget was completed, and the Ministry of Revenue was quarrel with the account. In the end, the difference was almost the same, and you could always get the money that was almost the same.

Therefore, all personnel related to this amount can be divided into a "passing fee" first.

During the actual use of this payment, you can also get quarrel with the seller and get some kickbacks, which is another income.

As for businessmen, they won't lose money.

Spray the medicinal materials by water pressure scales, or use inferior products as good ones, and even sell them with weeds, or even counterfeit and inferior products, such as using burdock root, shanglu root or mountain lettuce as ginseng.

If the secretary had the opportunity to negotiate long-term supply business with the caravan last time, then the above "floating" silver coins can be directly entered into his pocket.

Because he was a seller who had direct contact with him and had not passed through the imperial court, no one could share it with him.

After all, Zheng Chunqiu and the Fourth Prince will not participate in this kind of cooperation due to their "noble" status.

The imperial physician may be able to divide up some points, so how many can it be? Isn’t the big boss still put his own pocket?

The secretary pulled Meng Wu to the side, avoided the imperial physician's sight, and patiently grinded his mouth. Good things always hurt: "Little brother, look at your convoy, and people on the road are also expensive to feed them;

Who are you going to bear the price and not drop? You can't afford it for yourself, so why bother?

If you can't sell it for a while and then break it up, wouldn't it be a loss?

It’s better to cooperate with you and I won’t bargain if you offer the price. Please give me a silver note and give me 10% of the “drift” per car (rebate);

This way you sell quickly, and it doesn’t matter what you lose. If your master asks, he will only say that if you dehydrate on the road, you will lose weight and receive more moisture, and you will also make some money."

Meng Wu was so happy that he took a few pieces of Rhodiola from the sack, stuffed them into his kettle, and took a few sips before speaking: "See? You can't afford Rhodiola. We always drink it with soaked water when we go out. Do you think I'm like a shortage of silver?"

Secretary: "..."

Why is it so difficult to make some money these days?

On the other side, the caravans had already made fires and cooked on the spot. There was a river water under the slope, which was a good place to rest.

Fragments of fragrance wafted over, and these boys were actually simmering mutton. One of them shouted: "Wuzi, eat! Don't bother with them, and don't point at them to make money!

Deliver the last cart of glass wine utensils and we will go home. We can’t eat enough of the rest ourselves, so don’t sell it!

And the medicinal herbs. If there is not enough food on the way back, we can still exchange meat with the herdsmen!”

Glass wine utensils? Go home? Eat the grain by yourself?

The secretary understood, and he really didn't point to the little medicinal materials and grains to make money.

The boys in the team there have already started to make a cup of tea. The corn wine is fragrant and the mutton is steaming hot. Some boys are singing:

"Our group of Gawazis will pick up notes at noon and pick up a pot of mutton noodles at night...

If you don’t drink a drink, I won’t eat meat, what are our friends!”

Zheng Chunqiu's legs were uncontrolled by his brain, and only the imperial physician was still checking the medicinal materials carefully. He had already moved out several sacks of medicinal materials and was waiting for the secretary to settle the bill.
Chapter completed!
