"You said that there were fifty of you when you came here. You traveled across the ocean and went through a lot of hardships along the way. You encountered the angry sea god, the earth dragon turned over, and you were almost robbed by bandits, but the five of you survived?"
The man named Cui frowned and asked.
The man with messy hair had a sad look on his face, nodded, and said, "My companions are all dead, and we are the only ones left."
"What country is so far away and has to drift on the sea for more than half a year?" The man surnamed Cui asked suspiciously: "You just said, which country are you from..."
"Great Britain..." The man looked sad and said, "Great Britain..."
He looked up at the sky: "Great Britain... #@￥%*! United Kingdom, the great sun never sets..."
"Okay..." The man surnamed Cui waved his hand. He didn't care about the Dian Kingdom. He had just verified that the colored glazes were real. This was enough for him.
"Do you only have this little glass?" He asked with a smile on his face, looking at a few people.
The man from Great Britain said in a trembling voice: "It's broken, it's all broken, only these two boxes are left..."
No wonder these people look so embarrassed and have gone through such hardships. It is not easy to have these colored glazes left.
The man surnamed Cui had a regretful expression on his face, but he quickly disappeared. He looked at the man and said, "Ten thousand taels, I'll give you ten thousand taels. I'll keep these two boxes of things. Ten thousand taels is enough for the five of you here."
It’s been ten years of happy and joyful life.”
What Fanbang merchants like to do most is to exchange precious treasures for some cheap things. The man surnamed Cui secretly remembered the country he mentioned in his mind. This country must be rich in colored glaze. The Wang family’s colored glaze may also come from that country.
Bought it from a merchant.
"Ten thousand taels?"
The man opposite shook his head, took out a smaller Buddha statue from the box, and said: "Ten thousand taels, this is for you. I know that colored glaze is very precious here."
The man surnamed Cui was stunned for a moment, then his face darkened.
Are these foreign businessmen actually knowledgeable?
He originally thought of sending them away with 10,000 taels. If these things were resold, he would probably make hundreds of times the profit. By making such a big contribution to the family, his status in the Cui family would skyrocket, but he didn't expect it.
, these foreign businessmen seem to have figured out the market situation of Liuli, they are not easy to cheat...
A smile appeared on his face again and he said: "I don't know if you have heard of this saying, "Things are rare and valuable." If there is too much colored glass, it will naturally become less valuable..."
"In that case, let's take our leave!" The man nodded, turned around and said a few more words to those people.
"@#￥%......amp;amp;amp;."
After several people responded, they picked up two boxes and prepared to leave.
The smile on the man named Cui froze, and he cursed in his heart. These foreign businessmen were so decisive. He hurriedly took two steps forward and said, "Wait a minute, we can discuss the money matter."
The foreign man said: "We don't want money."
"If you don't want money, what do you want?" The man named Cui frowned slightly and said.
The Fanbang man turned around and looked around in the Jinyu Pavilion.
The man surnamed Cui finally realized something and frowned even deeper.
"Sit here for a while. Let me think about this for a moment." Soon a smile appeared on his face and he said: "Cui Wu, serve tea to the guests!"
…
…
"Second uncle, there is so much glass, we can't eat it..."
In the back hall, a man named Cui was sitting on the main seat. The young man looked at him and said hesitantly.
"Of course I know I can't afford it." The man surnamed Cui waved his hand. How could a branch of Jinyu Pavilion in Kyoto afford a million-tael business?
They couldn't afford that much money at the same time.
Those foreign merchants proposed bartering and exchanging the treasures from the Jinyu Pavilion for those colored glazes. Their idea was quite clever.
I'm afraid they want to go back to their country and sell those jewelry and other things. I heard that these things are very popular in their country.
"Second uncle, should we..." The young man pondered for a moment, then suddenly looked at him and made a gesture of wiping his neck.
"Fanbang people are cheap, but they are in a shop now, so it's hard to do anything. I'll hold them back for a while, and you can arrange the people. Once they leave the city..." The man surnamed Cui pondered for a while, then lowered his voice and said.
"Second uncle, I understand!"
With a happy face on his face, the young man quickly walked out of the lobby and went around the back door.
There was a sneer on the face of the man named Cui. They were just a few foreigners. If they died, they would be dead. The government would not pursue a case with no beginning or end. As long as it was not in front of the people of Kyoto, even if the Cui family was found
On the head, they can also easily place it.
After a cup of tea, the man surnamed Cui walked out, with his signature smile on his face, and said: "Okay, I will follow what you said, but before that, let's estimate the value of these colored glazes...
…”
An hour later, several disheveled and ragged people walked out of Jinyu Pavilion in Kyoto, each carrying a bulging bag, and they quickly disappeared into the crowd.
In the Jinyu Pavilion, several clerks looked at the shelves around them. They were full of goods just now, but now they were empty. They looked at the dazzling colored glass in the two boxes, and the feeling in their hearts was hard to understand.
After having people move the two boxes away, the man surnamed Cui came to the back hall and suddenly said, "Have everything been arranged?"
"Everything has been arranged, and twenty good soldiers have been sent to follow them. As soon as they leave the capital, we will kill them immediately and get our goods back."
The man surnamed Cui nodded, sat back in the main seat, and after taking a sip of tea, a strange smile appeared on his face.
At the gate of the city, several men dressed in tatters, looking like beggars and carrying several large bags, left the city.
A person walking in front suddenly said: "Lao San, what's the matter with you? You almost exposed your secret just now."
He spoke fluent Chinese at this time, which was very different from just now in Jinyu Pavilion.
The man who just spoke stammering Chinese said aggrievedly: "Brother, you really can't blame me. I don't know why the alliance leader came up with this strange name. It's too convoluted..."
Another person waved his hand and said: "Okay, okay, as long as the task is completed, go back and submit the work quickly. I plan to exchange the points earned this time for the Bingbao sword. The sword made by the Sword Forging Villa is nothing to say, it is just made by them.
Weapons have always been for personal use. Ever since they joined our Liu League, they can finally use top-notch weapons..."
The last person weighed the bag in his hand and said, "Do you think someone might have rolled up these colored glasses and ran away? If they were all sold, what kind of weapons wouldn't be available?"
The man known as the eldest brother smiled and said: "Not to mention that there are two groups of inspection teams following each road. Even if someone can really bribe the inspection team, I'm afraid it will be greedy and lifeless. Although the world is big, martial arts people
More, where can they escape to?"
"Yes, brother is right. He took Liuli and ran away. It doesn't exist. That is to say, we are in Kyoto. The alliance leader can rest assured about us. Others are surrounded by inspectors. Who dares to be greedy? What's more, money is nothing.
, if the leader of the alliance is willing to give some pointers, wouldn’t it be easy to get on the Heavenly List? It wouldn’t be much more important than those external things?”
"OK OK."
The elder brother stopped and said: "Put these things down first, quickly get rid of those guys behind, and go back to the business!"
