Chapter 164 Brokers are actually divided into three types of people
After Liu Dutong left, Chu Qianqiu became extremely busy. He rushed among every force in Baixiang Town and brought them under his control one by one.
Although this also relied on the name of Liu Dutong's adopted son, the more important thing is that Chu Qianqiu has a good understanding of the situation of each force in the cycle, allowing him to easily break through their defense lines and seek benefits from them.
.
The Xiao family is not like this now.
Chu Qianqiu came to Xiao's house again, but it seemed particularly deserted.
I didn't hear Fatty Xiao's wails, nor did I see Xiao Changfeng's scolding as he whipped his riding whip angrily.
It seemed that the fire burned away all the vitality of the Xiao family.
Of course, Chu Qianqiu knew that Fatty Xiao had already gone to Daxia with his mother and others. After this period of troubles, Fatty must have learned a lesson and cheered up.
But when he thought of him taking the four outhouses to Daxia, Chu Qianqiu really didn't know how to sympathize with him.
"The Xiao family seems to have been a broker and was in cahoots with Da Xia."
"Many noble people like to do business through the Changfeng Chamber of Commerce and buy some real estate in Daxia."
Wang Yuan said with some caution, pouring out the information he knew like beans in order to increase Chu Qianqiu's favor with him.
"Wait at the gate of Xiao's house." Chu Qianqiu casually ordered, and Wang Yuan immediately responded:
"Yes, Mr. Chu."
The dignified legitimate son of the Wang family became a guard standing guard at the Xiao family's gate. He stood quite upright, which made the Xiao family's guards stunned.
Logically speaking, Master Chu should be lower than Mr. Wang. Why is it reversed?

Xiao Changfeng still stayed in Baixiang Town, but evacuated most of his family and guests. When he saw Chu Qianqiu's visit, he quickly prepared tea and made tea for him respectfully.
In just a few days, Chu Qianqiu continuously experienced the changes in the status of both parties.
At the earliest, Chu Qianqiu was a junior and was a little nervous when meeting Xiao Changfeng.
Later, Chu Qianqiu became a partner, sitting on equal footing with Xiao Changfeng, discussing business with each other.
Now, Xiao Changfeng is considered a subordinate of Chu Qianqiu, obeying his orders in order to join the Shenwei Army.
"Uncle Xiao, I have come here to entrust you with something important." Chu Qianqiu is not someone who dislikes poverty and loves wealth, nor does he look down upon others.
Xiao Changfeng was able to grow from a farmer's boy to a prominent figure in Baixiang Town and a famous rich man in Lingzhou. Even though his business was not clean, he was still considered a hero.
Being in a different place, Chu Qianqiu didn't think he could be half as capable as him.
"Master Chu, you are so polite. Xiao will do his best." Xiao Changfeng said gratefully.
Of course he should be grateful. Governor Zheng of Lingzhou fell. Originally, the Xiao family was in danger of having their property confiscated and exterminated, but now they were rescued by the Shenwei Army and were able to retain a large amount of property and transfer it to Daxia.
"Uncle Xiao once worked as a broker, so he should know how to contact those brokers."
"Xiao knows what special materials the Shenwei Army needs to purchase?"
"Breaking Army Crossbow or Prisoning Dragon Lock?"
Xiao Changfeng said in a deep voice that he had already made a clean break with the broker and was unwilling to do such dangerous work again.
But if the Shenwei Army needed it, he would have no choice but to take the risk again.
These ordnance are weapons of mass destruction unique to the Fengzhou Tang Family, Jiangzhou Wang Family, etc. Since the Shenwei Army is preparing to rebel, it will naturally have to purchase ordnance from additional channels.
"Uncle Xiao misunderstood, there is no need to worry too much about these ordnance." Chu Qianqiu shook his head. If these ordnance were not prepared in advance, how could Liu Dutong go against the imperial court?
"I want to buy elixirs, secret books, and all kinds of precious treasures."
"What specific elixirs are needed, and where are the secret books?"
"Everything that can't be bought on the market, I want it!" Chu Qianqiu waved his hand. Instead of slowly collecting it by himself and relying on chance encounters or luck to come across some elixirs, it would be better to mobilize the entire Shenwu Kingdom's brokers to find them for him.
"How much premium will Master Chu be willing to pay?"
"What kind of premium method?" Chu Qianqiu asked.
"Take the Dragon Tiger Sect's [Dragon and Tiger Pill] as an example. It belongs to the genus of elixir. Those who take it can obtain [Dragon and Tiger] properties, and the density of true energy is greatly increased, but the control is very strict."
"The price of this elixir within the Dragon Tiger Sect is only 3,000 taels. There is a chance to get it even with 2,000 taels."
"But if it is smuggled into Daxia, it will cost between 30,000 and 50,000 taels, often with a premium of more than 10 times."
"Back then, Xiao made his fortune by helping others transport a few Dragon and Tiger Pills."
"But ordinary elixirs will have such a premium. If they are more precious elixirs, such as [Dragon God Pill] and [Nirvana Pill], which are close to elixirs, the premium can be several times higher. It is already scary."
Xiao Changfeng quickly explained with examples, which made Chu Qianqiu a little more curious about the broker.
"Then the broker can retire after making a deal?"
To be a local rich man in Lingzhou, ten thousand taels of silver is enough, let alone tens of thousands of taels of silver for business.
"Master Chu, how is this possible?"
"The broker cannot get all the profits. The broker organization is divided into three types of people: sellers, sellers and consignees."
Xiao Changfeng shook his head and added an explanation:
"First of all, we need to find a well-known and decent seller. They will take half of the profits and only accept cash."
"If there are no sellers, there will be no supply of goods. Those who can do this kind of business are all important figures in the sect. Only they are qualified to sell goods."
I see, first you have to find someone who can sell the goods. For example, if Chu Qianqiu wants to get a Dragon Tiger Pill, who can sell the Dragon Tiger Pill?
He must be a big shot in the Dragon and Tiger sect, and at the very least he has to have a pill in his hand.
"The second is the consignee. Only they can find the corresponding buyer. The broker has to come secretly. How can he announce his intention to buy in a big way?"
"They are responsible for contacting the buyers and receiving the money, and they also take at least 40% of the profits."
"And what Uncle Xiao was doing was a smuggler?" Chu Qianqiu understood now. The broker's profit was high. There were actually three people sharing it. 90% of it belonged to him, and less than 10% was left for him to leave.
The goodsman's.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! "Yes, smugglers are the most dangerous and have the least money. At first, Xiao's brothers wanted to do a business on their own, and then they were discovered and killed by the Dragon Tiger Sect.
Already."
"That's why Xiao washed his hands and stopped doing this broker's business."
Xiao Changfeng sighed, feeling sad. Even if he took risks to do business, he would still be squeezed.
"Then from now on, Uncle Xiao is no longer a thief, but a serious buyer." Chu Qianqiu took out the banknotes he had prepared in advance.
Each ticket has a ticket number of 10,000 taels, for a total of one hundred tickets.
In a sense, this is a fake banknote that he copied using his golden finger.
If unlimited copies flow to the market, it will easily cause inflation, and it will also be easily detected by banks.
However, for Sihai Bank and Shenlong Bank, the current amount of banknotes is not enough for them to find clues.
"I don't care how you buy or sell, Uncle Xiao just lets him do it."
“Whether it’s setting up a brokerage organization or contacting other brokers.”
"I just need the goods to arrive."
With Golden Finger, it is natural to use him to his limit.
Chu Qianqiu didn't want to risk wandering around, so he would offer a sufficient price and let the brave people in the world help him buy the elixir he wanted.
As long as I buy it, I won't lose anything.
Use the mustard ring to replicate it over and over again!
These one million taels of silver notes are just a sprinkling of water.
"Xiao will live up to his trust!" Xiao Changfeng's eyelids twitched fiercely. He had struggled all his life, and all his belongings combined were only this amount.
Chu Qianqiu was able to come up with so much money. It seemed that Liu Dutong asked him to do this action.
