But more often than not, it was due to the lack of clean water and food on the sports boat, which resulted in extreme physical weakness.
This kind of thing needs to be taken good care of. Although it can be rescued, it currently looks a bit dangerous.
Fortunately, their big ship has all the supplies, including medicine and food. Otherwise, even if others come to rescue the people, they may not be able to treat them.
Lin Mengya did not show up because she and Uncle Huo had to do another very important thing at this time.
Although the two people had conflicts with the slave traders, they did not have any conflicts with the island. So on the day of rescuing people, the two of them took people to the island again.
However, compared with before, business on the island has still been somewhat affected.
Mr. Ming was secretly angry, thinking that the compensation he wanted so hard was still missing.
But he also knew that if he asked for too much, if word of what happened here got out, his opponents would definitely take the opportunity to add insult to injury and try to rob him of the management rights that he had worked so hard to obtain.
He felt very unhappy, but there was nothing he could do about it. After all, everyone was afraid of things like disease. Even after he came back, he burned the clothes he was wearing before, for fear of being contaminated at all. This is a fatal thing.
There has been a situation like this before. Not only did a whole boat of people die, but many people on the shore were also implicated.
The location of his island is very important, and merchants coming and going have to stop here to replenish supplies. If there is really a riot, how will he do business in the future?
The master's family will definitely not let him go.
When he thought of this possibility, he couldn't help tightening his skin. He was secretly glad that he had resolved the matter decisively. However, he felt a little unhappy after all and decided to give 30% of the skin to the slave traders in the future!
Since you want to do business on his island, you have to make him comfortable.
But he was a little worried.
The grain is not bad, as long as it is stored properly, there is no need to worry about not being able to sell it.
But for some fresh fruits, vegetables, etc., as well as fresh meat, even if he had an ice cellar, he couldn't store that much. In the end, he could only throw them away after they rotted.
But these are all wasted money! You must know that he also needs money to get these things. The thought of losing so much money again makes him feel distressed!
Unexpectedly, at this moment, his subordinates hurried over and said with a happy face: "Third Master, Third Master! Someone is coming to buy something!"
Mr. Ming was overjoyed and hurried out to greet him. Unexpectedly, it was the father and daughter. The smile on his face faded, but he also thought that the prescription for treating the epidemic was given by the father and daughter. No matter what they say about each other
It was considered a small favor for him, so he greeted him neither overly enthusiastic nor coldly.
He arched his hands towards Uncle Huo.
"Guest, what do you want to buy? Although our island is small, we have a wide variety and the prices are famously fair. No matter what you need, we can have it."
Both father and daughter wore masks on their faces, clearly telling others that there might be a problem on the island. It seemed that Mr. Ming was a little angry, but there was nothing he could do about it. Who asked him to dress like this?
"Dad, I think we should forget it. What if the things on their island are unclean? This is a disease and nothing else. Let's be cautious and be patient."
Lin Mengya's words added fuel to the fire and made Mr. Ming almost burst out.
But he still suppressed his anger. He had to minimize the damage to the island.
Just now he was thinking of tricking the father and daughter, but now it seems that the two of them are not as stupid as he thought, so he has to change his strategy.
Uncle Huo seemed to be persuaded by her and hesitantly discussed with his "daughter".
"Although we have enough on board, everything is unexpected, so I have to buy more to compare."
"But I'm not at ease! Dad, you also saw it. How scary it was when those slave traders got sick just now? Anyway, if you take all these things on board, I will go back and tell my mother that you are greedy for cheap and don't care about the big guys.
Life or death!" "You kid, how can you talk like that? You must never let your mother know about this. If your mother finds out, she will punish me by kneeling on the washboard again!" Uncle Huo was very anxious.
, open your mouth and shut up, just to tell her not to tell her
Mother, she looks like someone who is afraid of her daughter-in-law.
Lin Mengya behaved a little willfully, like a willful young lady who was really pampered by her parents. "Last time you were greedy for cheap and bought a bunch of porcelain that was soaked in water. Last time you bought a bunch of porcelain that was soaked in rain.
Silk. Dad, it’s not that I am unfilial as a daughter, it’s just how many times you have been fooled over the years because of your greed for gain.
Already?"
Lin Mengya's treasures are numerous, but she always emphasizes one message.
That is this businessman who seems to be henpecked. His biggest shortcoming is that he is greedy for cheap, so as long as something is cheap, he may accept it no matter whether it is good or bad.
This made Mr. Ming think twice.
Although there are many things on his island, not all of them are good.
Because he was engaged in exclusive trading, even if occasionally there were goods that were not that good, he could still sell them at a high price. After all, if you didn't buy them from him, who else could you buy them from?
For businessmen, only what is sold is money; what is piled in hands and may deteriorate anytime and anywhere is not money.
After hearing the information revealed in this girl's words, he thought that he could give this fool a little sweetness first, and then sell all the not-so-good things together.
When the time comes, if he calculates this, he won't pay any compensation, but will still make a fortune.
Lin Mengya exchanged glances with Uncle Huo, and seeing that the time had come, she pretended to be angry and said something.
"Anyway, if you buy another bunch of junk and put it on the boat, I'll tell my mother to go! I don't care about you anymore, you can take care of it yourself!"
After saying that, she turned around and left, looking very delicate and savage.
Uncle Huo pointed at her back and said to Mr. Ming: "Look at her like this! Hey, it's all my fault for my old daughter. Over the years, this girl has been spoiled by her mother and I, and she's actually...
Dare to be her boss!"
"If you don't let me buy rags, what's wrong with me buying a bunch of rags and going back? Is it me or her who is in charge of this family? I will sue his mother. If you can, don't sue her mother. Let's see how I deal with her!"
"
Although he said this, he did not dare to raise his voice too loudly. Mr. Ming knew at a glance that this was another softie. He laughed at him in his heart, but he still pretended to be a good man and persuaded:
"As the saying goes, children are the debts of their parents. Besides, although this girl in your family is a bit outrageous, as parents, there is no need to
Get along with the kids."
Uncle Huo snorted coldly in his heart, you know nothing!
That is to say, he was unlucky and could not give birth to such a powerful daughter as the head of their family. If this was really his daughter, he would probably wake up laughing in his dreams. But he still had an angry look on his face and said: "This is called my vision.
Unique, what's wrong even if she accidentally misses it? Who can guarantee that they will never miss it in this life? She even threatened me with her mother, so I have to buy it today.
"Third Master, let's go in and take a look. What good stuff do you have here? I'll take all of it today! She's greedy for cheap, so call her daddy. I'm diligent and thrifty. If I didn't have the money I squeezed out from my teeth,
How can she be as beautiful as she is now?
A life of food and clothing?”
When Mr. Ming saw that someone had been tricked, he immediately showed his signature smile and quickly let the person into the house.
But later he realized that what the girl said was not wrong at all. This guy was really stingy!
Not only did he push the price down hard, but he even always found fault with it. But if he said he wouldn't sell it, the other party would insist on pestering him.
In the end, all the throwing and rolling was used, and the discussion finally came to a result that was satisfactory to both parties.
Mr. Ming took a handkerchief and wiped the sweat from his forehead.
To be honest, he felt that if he did business with this old boy, he would lose two years of his life.
He immediately regretted it. He might as well have listened to that girl just now. It was really hard for this old boy to make money!
"Tsk, tsk, I've been generous today. You are so awesome, Third Master. You can actually take out so much money from my pocket. You are the only one who gets it!"
Uncle Huo, who looked pained on the surface but was actually smiling, began to praise Mr. Ming.
Mr. Ming's eyes hurt looking at him now, but in fact he didn't pay the price.
The profit was a little less, but at least the things in his hands would not rot until the next batch of supplies was delivered.
Although the Ming family is not very honest in doing business, after all, there are merchants coming from all over the world. Even if they want to pass off inferior goods as good goods, there is a limit to passing off bad goods as good goods.
Therefore, the price of this batch of materials is relatively reasonable.
After the money and goods were cleared, Uncle Huo and Lin Mengya moved all the supplies onto the ship as quickly as possible.
Mr. Ming didn't let anyone look at them, because he felt that seeing these things would make his body hurt once, and it was better not to see them.
But secretly, he ordered his men to withhold 30% of the goods when delivering goods to them.
This was the secret that allowed him to continuously make money out of his pocket on this island. In order to facilitate transportation, general materials are packed in wooden boxes or baskets. As long as they can be fooled when counting,
, it is easy to do tricks during transportation and replace some supplies that can be sold again.
, and these are the "profits" that enrich his own pockets.
Normally he only shaved off 10% or 20%, but he saw that the man in front of him did not come from a big family, so he was cruel and let someone keep 30%.
But when he happily took people to see the seized goods, he was dumbfounded. "Where are the things? Where are the people guarding the things?"
