After the meal, the female relatives gathered together again to chat. Duke Neptune and Marquis Leven took Zhang Lang aside and sat with other nobles.
Le Xinyi gave Su Mingda a wink, and Lao Su secretly understood, and Ye Peng followed suit.
"Earl Hunter..." Duke Neptune picked up his pipe, took a sip gently, and exhaled a puff of white smoke with satisfaction: "These days, your fiancée and this Su scholar have been visiting us a lot...
We have already felt your sincerity... The Southern Continent Business Alliance welcomes you to join."
"This is my honor!" Zhang Lang nodded and replied according to what Su Mingda had mentioned to him before: "When this matter comes to an end and I return to the territory, I will immediately start adjusting the original tax policy.
Open the door for our alliance!"
"Wise approach!" Marquis Liwen and other nobles also nodded.
"But now that I have joined the alliance, I also have a merciless request..." Zhang Lang said with a smile: "After all, the modification of policies, as well as the communication and implementation of government orders, also require a lot of costs, and also involve my territory.
The interests of all parties involved... there will eventually be some blood involved..."
Several nobles looked at each other and burst into laughter.
"Mr. Su has conveyed your meaning to you these past few days!" Duke Neptune said with a smile: "Don't worry, everyone will be our own people from now on, and we won't treat you badly! It just so happens that there is a ready-made deal right now.
Let’s do it for you, and the profit will definitely make you laugh in your dreams tonight!”
"Oh?" Zhang Lang raised his eyebrows: "What business?"
Duke Neptune raised the pipe in his hand: "That's it!"
As an important specialty of the Southern Continent, tobacco immediately became an obsessive way of enjoying it after it entered the Pan-Human Empire. From the princes and nobles to the common people, everyone was crazy about this stuff. It can be said that the supply exceeds the demand!
The tobacco business was naturally in the hands of the Southern Noble Alliance, with Duke Neptune taking the lead.
According to Duke Neptune, a batch of tobacco from the Southern Continent is now being shipped to the Capital of Light and is expected to arrive in five days. Tobacco merchants from all over the world are gathering here at the moment, waiting for this batch of goods to arrive.
They have to rob and buy them, process them individually, and sell them around the Capital of Light...
Originally, this batch of tobacco was purchased by Duke Neptune from the Southern Continent in order to make a fortune in the Capital of Light. But now that "Earl Hunter" has joined their business alliance, Duke Neptune is willing to give up the money.
Business, give this batch of goods to Zhang Lang at cost price, and let him make this profit!
Hearing this, Su Mingda's eyes lit up. This is a sure-profit deal! No matter in any world or in any history, addictive things are absolutely highly profitable!
Zhang Lang naturally understands this truth: "How much does this batch of goods cost?"
"My purchase price is not high..." Duke Neptune took out a list and looked at it with his pipe in his mouth: "But this journey is a boat ride and a long journey, and there are various levels of customs and commerce along the way.
Taxes, bodyguards, horse chews, etc... All counted, there are about 50,000 zeros hanging on them... Forget it, don't hang zeros, just a round number of 50,000, I will give this batch of goods to you!"
"Fifty thousand?" Su Mingda shouted immediately, and Ye Peng on the side also widened his eyes in surprise...
They really want to do a big business, but big business means big capital. Originally, according to Su Mingda's estimation, it would be best to invest 10,000 to 20,000 yuan in a business that can earn more than 50% of the profit. In this way, three
People can share the profits of several thousand yuan. If they are lucky, an average person can earn about two thousand yuan, and this time it is not in vain.
After all, based on Zhang Lang's performance last time, they estimated that he would have no problem getting more than 20,000 gold coins this time.
But I didn’t expect that the Duke would ask for fifty thousand? Fifty thousand gold coins? Damn it, it’s enough to raise five heroes! No one can get fifty thousand points in one mission!
"I know that fifty thousand gold coins is not a small amount!" Duke Neptune smiled: "But I believe that as an old-school nobleman, you, Earl Hunter, have a rich heritage!"
"Yes!" Marquis Leven also advised: "Even if this tobacco is used as a raw material, the profit will at least double. Even if there will be a lot of losses along the way, it should not be a problem to sell 80,000 yuan in the capital of light!
"
"Besides, I heard that you have a good record in the dungeon. You can exchange a few thousand for the bounty these days. Let's make up for the 50,000! After all, there are still five days left!"
"And the trading of raw materials is not the most profitable business!" The Viscount who told Gildeman's story before also said: "In fact, the real profits are those retailers' tobacco products... Recently some people even quit
We have produced a finished paper cigarette, which costs only a few grams of tobacco and costs more than a dozen copper coins... After you join, we can also monopolize this business! When the time comes, gold coins will fall on your head like a waterfall.
!”
"The profits are indeed considerable... but not that much money..." Su Mingda took two steps back, covering his mouth and murmuring in a low voice. He believed Zhang Lang could hear: "Discuss with him, only 20,000... or 25,000
Is the goods OK..."
"A future worth looking forward to!" Zhang Lang nodded, not listening to Su Mingda's words at all: "50,000 yuan, don't worry, I'll pay you in one hand and deliver the goods in five days!"
As soon as he agreed, Su Mingda and Ye Peng behind him widened their eyes and wondered, is he crazy? Where can they get 50,000 yuan?
"Happy!" The nobles laughed, and Duke Neptune even raised his pipe: "Then I wish us a happy cooperation in advance!"
"Happy cooperation!" Zhang Lang smiled and nodded.
After leaving Marquis Liwen's mansion and getting on the carriage returning, Su Mingda and Ye Peng immediately complained: "You actually agreed to a fifty thousand yuan business?"
"Fifty thousand yuan?" Le Xinyi had been hanging out with those aristocratic ladies before, and this was the first time she heard about this outrageous business!
"Don't you want to use the assets of the Earl's Mansion to mix with our own gold coins?" Su Mingda frowned and said: "No matter how much money you can use from the Earl's Mansion, even if you succeed, the number of gold coins you earn in the end counts.
I don’t know…the risk is too great!”
"Yeah..." Le Xinyi also frowned: "You should discuss this with Su Mingda. Fifty thousand gold coins... we can't come up with it at all..."
"Don't worry!" Zhang Lang was confident.
"I know you are very strong..." Ye Peng sighed: "But no matter how strong you are, you have to act according to your ability! You will have to hand over 50,000 yuan in five days... The three of us have never gone hunting monsters.
That’s more than a thousand…”
As he said that, he looked at Le Xinyi: "Let's go to the dungeon tomorrow and form a team with other reincarnations. We can make a little money... Su Mingda is not good at fighting, so he continues to stay on the ground...
…By the way, contact various buyers in advance to find out whether this tobacco business is reliable…”
"But, fifty thousand yuan..." Le Xinyi was also worried: "With our two strengths, even if we can make some money, it will be a drop in the bucket... By the way, hunter, how much do you have in your hands now?"
Although Lei Lei also got money back twice, Zhang Lang exchanged the bounties for lords' kills and the gold coins for special missions and saved them himself, so Le Xinyi and the others had only seen a few thousand pieces, and they didn't know about Zhang Lang.
How much is the total in Long's hand?
"I haven't calculated the details yet. Thunder should still have some reserve funds..." Zhang Lang recalled the balance after the latest deposit: "Added together, we should have half!"
"Half?" The three of them were stunned: "You mean...half of how much?"
"Of course it's half of the payment." Zhang Lang said: "It's only been five days, the monsters on the remaining levels will be more valuable, and I will make money faster! Don't worry, 50,000 is definitely not a problem."
The three of them were stunned...the hunter already had twenty-five thousand in his hand?
Zhang Lang ignored their surprise and turned to the coachman: "On our way back, we will pass by Gildeman's mansion."
"Okay, sir!" the coachman replied respectfully, turning at the next intersection.
