I engaged in modernization in ancient times

Chapter 80 The prototype of a commercial empire

Silk is sold at Nanli's price, so there is no problem.

But... to whom?

More merchants came, and the original purpose was all for silk.

Mo Shaoheng said, "I believe everyone knows that Beiliang has just started to produce silk, and there must be a shortage in quantity."

"So, this batch of silk can only come in order, and I believe that everyone is not willing to let me buy a high price from Beiliang."

Everyone: "..."

My heart hurts, especially looking at the silk on display. You only need to ship it back and you can make a lot of money.

Now not only their caravans, but even self-employed people from various countries have gone to Nanli now, and they can bring goods back by manpower, and they only need to climb mountains and wade through water to make a lot of money.

Now in Nanli, an inherent freight route has been formed, known as the Silk Road. Along the way, there are stalls of local residents selling tea and food, forming a safe commercial route.

It was precisely because the competition was too fierce that they had to come to Beiliang to see the situation.

result……

Some people are happy and some are sad. For example, Dong Tang, who traded with Beiliang at the beginning, was happy. They came early, so they went to ask court officials about silk every day.

If they come first, first come, they will naturally have priority.

The flushed Dongtang businessman hurriedly cupped his hands, "Acceptance, acquiescence."

Everyone: "..."

Eastern Tang was known as the Shang Kingdom, the Holy Kingdom, and even their merchants seemed to have a higher status than others.

If the silk was obtained by merchants from other countries, they would complain to some extent, but when they saw that it was from Dongtang, no one opened their mouths for a while.

At this time, Mo Shaoheng continued, "You don't have to be disappointed."

"Although silk can't be enough, I have enough unique products in Beiliang to satisfy you."

"I guarantee that you will never come here in vain."

This is so arrogant.

Even their caravans that have been doing business across the country all the year round dare not say that the products they bring back can make money 100% of the time.

Mo Shaoheng continued, "Everyone, take a look at my snowflake salt from Beiliang."

Silk and salt are the business of the imperial court, so Mo Shaoheng naturally understands what it means not to overwhelm others, so silk and salt must be the first to be recommended.

Zhao Yanqiu is also observing carefully, because in the future, he will be responsible for the dealings between the imperial court and businessmen from various countries.

At the beginning, Zhao Yanqiu didn't take it seriously, but Mo Shaoheng told him that if Beiliang really took the commercial route in the future and mastered the commercial affairs of the imperial court, it would be equivalent to holding the lifeline of Beiliang and controlling it. The most crucial joint in Beiliang.

As long as he doesn't let go, no matter who sits in that position in the future, he, Zhao Yanqiu, will be like a wealthy prince that no one can touch.

Of course, the premise is that he does not make any mistakes in principle.

Zhao Yanqiu had indeed seen it thoroughly, and it was really possible, so he studied hard.

Mo Shaoheng is now probably like an up owner who sells goods, so he almost shouted, "ohmygad, buy, buy, buy, dear ones, what you buy is what you earn."

Following Mo Shaoheng's voice, the previously arranged personnel had already brought out the salt.

A group of honest men are holding a bowl in their hands, and the salt is piled up in the bowl.

At first, merchants from various countries wondered, salt?

Let them transport the salt back, what can they earn.

However, as these honest men came out with salt in their hands, the merchants were stunned.

Snow white without trace, without the slightest variegation.

The salt used by all countries is similar, let alone the coarse salt used by the common people, even the refined salt used by the nobles has some impurities, and the color is a little yellow.

However, the salt in front of me is unique.

Snowflake salt?

It's really like a snowflake that spreads seamlessly on the ground.

I still couldn't believe it, and carefully twisted the salt in the bowl with my hands, it was so fine.

The sand texture of that kind of crystal is particularly strong.

Then put it in his mouth, obviously stunned for a moment.

"It tastes so pure, there is no miscellaneous smell at all."

It is indeed the best salt ever seen.

Such salt should be very expensive, right?I don't know how much profit can be left after transporting it back. If it is too expensive, there will not be too many people buying this kind of consumables for people's livelihood.

Mo Shaoheng said, "My Beiliang salt is cheap, you can buy it with confidence."

Then said a price.

For a moment, the merchants were stunned.

Mo Shaoheng was talking about the price of coarse salt, right?

How can such good salt be sold at this price?

If this is shipped back, it can also make a lot of money.

Mo Shaoheng smiled and said, "I'm talking about the price of snowflake salt, you don't have to doubt it."

"I believe everyone knows how much profit there is, and I don't need to do the math for you."

"If you are interested in Snowflake Salt." Mo Shaoheng pointed to a large booth, "You can go to this booth to negotiate on your own. They are all officials of the government, so they can naturally give you an accurate answer."

As soon as the voice fell, a swarm of bees rushed over there.

Mo Shaoheng was also taken aback, and said, "You don't need to be crowded, come one by one, silk cannot be supplied to all of you, but salt is."

That is, there is no difference between squeezing in first and squeezing in later.

In the list of invitations this time, besides these businessmen, there are also many officials of the imperial court.

Seeing this scene, they all had smiles on their faces.

They are all scrambling to buy their Beiliang salt, how can they be unhappy.

Mo Shaoheng's sugar and wine fair is really interesting. If these merchants are allowed to buy in a piecemeal manner, it may be a small list.

Moreover, without Mo Shaoheng's precise introduction, they might not have been so enthusiastic and active.

Tsk tsk, it seems that there is no problem with their court's big business.

Salt is a daily necessities, and the demand is very high. At first, they were still worried that such an ordinary thing would not be easy to sell, but unexpectedly, it turned out to be such a crowd.

In fact, this was also the beginning, and the silk was not found. Most of these merchants were afraid of returning empty-handed. Now that there is a business that can make a lot of money, they naturally appear extra positive.

At the booth, the official in charge of selling salt also reacted, and hurriedly said, "Come one by one, we will discuss in detail."

The price of salt sold to the various countries has actually been set, but the purchase quantity, delivery time, deposit, etc. need to be discussed, all of which must be recorded verbatim and written in the contract.

Mo Shaoheng said that since the imperial court is doing business with various countries, it must not be sloppy. Any clauses that may cause disputes must be written into the contract.

In this way, many unnecessary troubles can be avoided, and it can also make businessmen all over the world understand that even the Beiliang court is proceeding in accordance with the terms of the contract drawn up by both parties, and will not forcibly make things difficult for businessmen from other countries just because it is a landlord country.

They have been to too many countries, this kind of thing is not uncommon, and even some countries do not welcome them, and the methods are so frenzied that they can make people sick.

Seemingly simple things, but extremely important.

The message Mo Shaoheng wants to convey is that Liangjing is a fair trading market.

With only the word "fair trade", Mo Shaoheng knew how much it would tempt businessmen from various countries.

Yan's booth was at the very front, not too far from Mo Shaoheng.

So Mo Shaoheng used his internal strength to raise the volume and continued to talk about himself, so that the merchants could hear Mo Shaoheng's voice while waiting at the salt sales booth.

It was also thanks to Mo Shaoheng's deep inner strength, otherwise he would lose his temper after a few words, and it would be embarrassing.

There is still a big difference between pronouncing with inner strength and roaring with your throat open.

The sound sounds a little humming, but it's not as broken and harsh as a roar.

Mo Shaoheng continued, "The next thing is a real rare thing, everyone should be interested."

"This is my unique wine in Beiliang. It's called "Scorching Blood", and it has the reputation of fighting wine."

The merchant who was still paying attention to the sale of salt was instantly stunned.

Doujiu Qianjin?

A few days ago, the rumors that flowed out were true.

I was really surprised, they just took the rumors to be groundless and spread rumors.

But now, Mo Shaoheng said in front of everyone that there is really a wine that is as good as a thousand dollars.

What kind of wine is that?

At this time, a group of handsome and talented young scholars came up neatly.

These scholars were students of the Imperial College, and Mo Shaoheng specially borrowed them.

Since ancient times, in addition to swordsmen and knights, literati and poets have also been inseparable from fine wine.

In this era, the most famous person with both civil and martial arts is none other than Qinglian Sword Lord of the Eastern Tang Dynasty. With a sword, a cup of wine and a poem, he shocked the world and was called No. 1 among the five great masters.

These handsome young people put the exquisite box on their right chest with both hands.

Everyone: "..."

There are too many cutscenes in Mo Shaoheng, the key is that the officials and the wine seem to be expressing some kind of artistic conception in an instant.

At this time, someone has already exclaimed, "This box is made of golden nanmu."

The golden nanmu box alone is already worth a lot, and its price has to be settled in gold.

hiss!

I haven't seen the wine yet, just such a box already makes people feel that even the box is so precious, the things inside must be much more valuable than the box.

That's what packaging is all about.

The quality of things is originally reflected in various details, such as hairy crabs, the price of the same hairy crabs can be several times different between those packed in net bags and those packed in gift boxes.

Of course, this analogy may not be appropriate. A more direct comparison is Moutai. A slightly better bottle of Moutai costs tens of thousands of dollars. Does it really taste thousands of times better than other wines?

But there are still people who can happily buy it.

These officials showed the box in their hands, and then took out a small bottle from the box, which seemed to be matched with an equally exquisite cup.

In Beiliang, where there is no concept of packaging, this feeling is very strange.

For businessmen, maybe they can get some inspiration.

Everyone: "..."

It was similar to what Baiguan thought when he saw this scene.

As for nesting dolls, one nests one within another.

It is impossible to open all these small wine bottles.

Just opened one of the bottles.

Almost instantly, the rich aroma of wine wafted everywhere.

Everyone: "..."

The aroma of the wine alone is already a bit unbelievable, at least they have never heard of any wine that can emit such a smell in a small bottle.

Moreover, the aroma of the wine is so pure.

Many people took a deep breath. If this wine is worth a fortune, they would be worth a lot of money just by smelling it.

Mo Shaoheng introduced the wine in this position. Naturally, wine needs food and has to cooperate with the imperial court, so wine can also be regarded as a commodity of the imperial court.

Moreover, wine is indeed different from such cheap commodities as salt.

Take the rare and expensive luxury route.

Luxuries are often unreasonable. Mo Shaoheng's purpose is that even if the people of various countries can't remember all the goods in Beiliang, when they mention Beiliang, they will think of the "burning blood" wine of Doujiuqianjin, and the modern Luxury goods go the same way.

Of course, as a luxury, the output is naturally pitifully small, otherwise it will be a bad street, and the luxury will not be available.

Mo Shaoheng said, "The name of this wine is "Scorching Blood", because after drinking it, the blood in the whole body seems to boil, like a flame burning inside the body."

"If a martial arts practitioner drinks it, it can activate the meridian and activate the collaterals, and promote the cultivation of inner strength."

Mo Shaoheng didn't talk nonsense, his wine must be worthy of its name to sell at a high price, so it is not just a wine made from corn, Mo Shaoheng also added a prescription in it, which was grown by a medicine boy ginseng as a reference.

It is indeed a practice that can boost inner strength.

Everyone: "..."

How to say more and more amazing?

But if it was just surprise, what Mo Shaoheng said next was so shocking that his jaw almost dropped.

Mo Shaoheng said, "In today's world, there are only twelve bottles of "Scorching Blood" wine that you see in front of your eyes."

As soon as the voice fell, everyone gasped, and then looked at the opened bottle.

God, so there were only twelve bottles, and Mo Shaoheng just opened a bottle as if nothing happened?

It hurts to think about.

Even the officials in Beiliang feel very distressed. Mo Shaoheng, a prodigal son, how much money does that cost?

They also got the news revealed by Mo Shaoheng in advance that there are actually some fine wines of this type, but these twelve bottles of "burning blood" that can improve inner strength and practice are indeed the only ones.

In other words, there are only these twelve bottles this year.

So Mo Shaoheng's words are not wrong, at least until now, in today's world, there are only twelve bottles of "burning blood" in front of him.

This wine, in the eyes of everyone, is no longer wine.

Even if you buy it back, it is not for drinking, but for offering.

This may be the meaning of the luxury bottle.

Even the merchant who was about to place an order to buy salt couldn't take his eyes off the bottle.

It's a pity that Mo Shaoheng, a prodigal son, just ruined a bottle like this.

Mo Shaoheng didn't ask anyone to bring the wine to everyone to see, but said, "If you are interested, you can negotiate at the wine booth next to you."

There are only twelve bottles, no, there are only eleven bottles now.

Just thinking about it, the price must be too expensive.

But everyone did not act immediately, but looked at the opened bottle.

As we all know, once opened wine is left for a long time, it will become sour.

Don't you care about this bottle?

This, this... Anyway, they didn't see what to do with the small bottle of wine, so they couldn't take their eyes off for a while.

Mo Shaoheng smiled and said nothing.

At this time, a little Taoist priest came out from behind Mo Shaoheng, holding a Guqin in his hand just like Mo Shaoheng.

He walked directly to the opened wine bottle, raised his head, and drank it all in one gulp.

Do you know what the reaction was?

This little Taoist priest is simply... simply Niu Jue Peony.

Anyway, you should taste the taste of this wine carefully.

This little Taoist priest who killed a thousand swords.

Not to mention these businessmen, even Zhao Jingcheng and a group of students were trembling.

"Nan Yi, Nan Yi, did he really drink it in one gulp?"

He was so surprised that he discovered Nan Yi's abnormality.

I saw Nan Yi's face flushed, and there was fine sweat on his forehead.

It's not like there is a fire burning inside his body.

Suddenly, Nan Yi's hand was placed on the guqin in his arms, and the sound of the qin was astonishing, bursting like a fairy sound, and a white light shot out from the qin, hitting the ground directly, leaving a sword mark on the ground.

Be quiet, be quiet!

Then, "Ah" exclamation.

"Chunqiu...fingering!"

Using the qin as the hilt, using the sound of the qin to transform into a sharp blade, exposing the inner strength to the outside, there is no doubt about the spring and autumn fingering.

At the beginning Mo Shaoheng used the Spring and Autumn fingering technique, the depth of inner energy had already shocked the entire Liangjing beyond any doubt.

Now, this little Taoist actually...

How big is this little Taoist.

By the way, this little Taoist priest seems to be Mo Shaoheng's direct disciple. He seems to have been brought back from Nanli. He usually doesn't show his dew, so he can sometimes see it in the Battle of the Three Streets in Wuyi Lane. I could hear him say some gibberish words that I couldn't understand.

In the end, after a glimpse, he was already an unworldly master with internal strength and external strength?

His eyes were fixed on the small bottle that had been drunk. If eyes could be used to snatch things, the small bottle must have been robbed a thousand or eight hundred times.

Mo Shaoheng was not too surprised. In the past, Nan Yi would often steal pills from his alchemy room on Qinshan Mountain, and he had formed an inner strength in his body early on, but he couldn't let it out.

In the past three years, Nan Yi had to practice kung fu every day after finishing radio gymnastics, and Mo Shaoheng taught Nan Yi how to make alchemy from time to time after the medicine boy planted the herbs.

He sometimes practiced a little bit, and most of it got into Nan Yi's stomach.

Now with the addition of the strong wine and the medicinal properties of the wine, naturally, under the violent agitation, the inner strength will come out through the body, and the lute sage Liu Guichen does not shy away from passing on the Spring and Autumn Fingering to anyone.

At the beginning Liu Guichen was regretting that he didn't want to accept disciples. After his death, this spring and autumn fingering technique will disappear, which is really regrettable.

That's why I once vaguely mentioned in front of Mo Shaoheng that if I meet a suitable person in the future, it is also possible to pass on his unique skill of Spring and Autumn Fingering, and let the world remember that there is such an ingenious and legendary master like him .

Besides, even if Mo Shaoheng didn't teach Nan Yi, Liu Guichen would not refuse to teach Nan Yi, but now Nan Yi stayed by his side, not on Qinshan.

Nan Yi simply sat on the ground, with the guqin on his lap, guiding the turbulent internal energy.

A group of students including Zhao Jingcheng have gone crazy.

Nan Yi, who goes shopping and eats delicious food with them every day, has become a top master who can sing songs all over the world.

They are also students, why is the gap so big.

I didn't see Nan Yi as the kind of martial idiot who worked so hard that he forgot to sleep and eat.

On the contrary, I have been doing radio gymnastics and eye exercises all day long, and I can't be shaken.

Excited, the two hugged each other and screamed.

Mo Shaoheng: "..."

His eyes were so hot, he looked at Fan Shen, and he straddled Zhao Jingcheng, pulling Zhao Jingcheng's head and shaking it vigorously.

Don't these two babies like to fight each other the most?

Mo Shaoheng coughed, "In addition to "Scorching Blood", there is also a fine wine called "Yangchun Baixue". Much cheaper."

"If you are interested, you can also go to the booth for consultation. The number of "Yangchun Baixue" is more."

The scene immediately became lively.

The sword energy that Nan Yi aroused just now was as shocking as it could disturb the immortals in the sky.

If it's an old man or even a middle-aged man, it's fine, but he is such a young man.

The impact was too great.

It's the same in Zhuguo and Beiliang. The style of swordsman and chivalrous man is very popular, so one can imagine how such a young man has broken through and become a world-shocking master in front of them.

So Mo Shaoheng's wine was indeed a little different in their hearts.

Even if they can't buy "Scorching Blood", then...they will never miss the "Yangchun Baixue" with the same taste.

Once such news spreads, will "Yangchun Baixue" still worry about selling?

Mo Shaoheng waited for a while, first to protect Nan Yi, and second, to wait for the smell of alcohol on the field to dissipate.

It didn't take long before Nan Yi woke up and jumped up cleverly, "Master, I seem to be able to leave my body with internal energy."

If he had this ability back then, it would not have been so difficult for him and the young master to escape.

Those chasing and killing people were still targeting the young master, they just regarded him as an accompanying person after his disguise, otherwise he might not be able to come to Beiliang.

Mo Shaoheng nodded, after taking so many pills from the pharmacist's lineage, he broke through at about this time.

Nan Yi once offered incense in front of the picture of the ancestor of the pharmacist's lineage, so Mo Shaoheng would naturally teach him carefully.

After waiting for a while, when the smell of alcohol dissipated on the field, he put his hand on the strings of the qin, letting the sound of the qin overwhelm the sound of discussions one after another.

Then said, "Next, is the next product."

Silk, salt, and wine are all commodities related to the court, and now it's his turn.

"I recently heard that there is a rumor circulating in the market, saying that the flower fairy was reincarnated in my Liangjing."

"That's kind of weird."

"However, one thing that is certain is that, among the common people, the little white bottle in which the flower fairy condenses the fragrance of flowers really does exist."

Everyone: "..."

They also got some news, that the legendary fairy's treasure was made by Mo Shaoheng.

Reason told them that it must not be so miraculous.

But when you think about it, it is indeed a bit bizarre to be able to store the fragrance of flowers in a bottle and smell the fragrance of flowers in four seasons.

Mo Shaoheng saw everyone's attention turned to him.

The small white bottle was also brought up on a tray by the arranged person.

The merchants stretched their heads in a daze.

They actually had a strange feeling that although they had been to many countries, they had never given them so many surprises like this time in Liangjing.
