Chapter 69 The output is still too low
Before coming, Zong Qing thought that if he could talk about the price of fifty taels per piece, he would be thankful. Although he still couldn't get enough 100 pieces, it would still be OK to buy 80-90 pieces, which was not much different from 100 pieces. But now when he thought about the exchange price of local gold prices, he actually had to buy an iron cannon with more than ten taels of gold, which was simply a joke.
This is not because Zong Qing was not blamed. Since he came here, no matter what he did, he was calculated based on copper coins, so he didn't think too much about the exchange ratio. If Carlos's actions hadn't inspired him, he wouldn't have thought of this at all. And now if he really only used more than ten taels of gold to buy an iron cannon like this, then Zong Qing would definitely ask himself, are you stupid?
When the other party said the price of 80 stakes, he obviously regarded himself as a sucker. He could not be the big boss himself, so Zong Qing directly used the big move to use the most commonly used bargaining method in later generations.
He stood up and directly ordered Shima Katsumoto and Yokotani Shigeyuki: "Put down Jin Xiaosen and let's go." As he said, he had already walked towards the gate of the reception room.
"Sir Yuchuan, don't leave, don't leave, the price can be discussed again. You can stay, how about 70 guan per piece. 60 guan per piece, 60 guan per piece, you can't be lower anymore, don't leave, let's discuss the price, it's easy to discuss." Seeing Zong Qing lifting his legs and leaving, Carl Carlos could not let him go easily. He also quickly stood up and followed Zong Qing, while walking, he kept suppressing the price by himself.
But when he said 60 guan per piece, he saw Zong Qing still moving forward. He was really anxious now. He hurriedly said: "In this way, Lord Yuchuan, you said how many guan per piece, as long as it is not lower than the cost, I will sell it to you."
Zong Qing, who was almost at the gate, stopped when he heard this and said slightly: "20 guan per unit, if possible, gold will be paid."
After hearing the other party tell the price, Carlos hesitated for a moment, shook his head and said, "This chamber of commerce is really unacceptable."
Zong Qing did not go out this time. This was just a means to suppress the price. If he really stepped out of this door, the business would almost be ruined. So he said: "If you pay with copper coins, then Mr. Carlos would naturally not accept it. But he was using gold. Do you know gold? If you use five taels of gold to buy an iron cannon, will you lose money?"
"Sir Yuchuan, what can I do with gold? Is this the difference between paying for copper coins? "Carl Carlos obviously wants to get away with it. The price of five taels of gold per piece can make him a lot even if the travel fee is added. But who wouldn't want to make more money as a businessman?
"Mr. Carlos, if it is really local, then there is nothing wrong with one or two gold coins for four guan. But if it is placed in your country, I am afraid that the value of one or two gold coins will be worth at least 40 guan, or even more. If you are right, Spain does not use copper coins now. Even if you ship a ship of copper coins back, you can only recover funds at the price of selling copper. Gold is different, and this can be used as currency directly, so do you think gold can have the same value in Spain and local?"
"You... do you know this?" Carl Carlos widened his eyes and looked at Soqing Yukawa. He couldn't believe his ears. In this wilderness, there were people who knew Europe and his motherland so well. This was really a bit horrible. Since the other party had already understood everything, the business could only be done at the price the other party said. This was also the only way to leave this bag of gold. Anyway, even at the price of 20 guan per piece, he could make about twice as much. It was enough. This was gold, not comparable to that damn copper coins.
He shrugged helplessly again and said, "Okay, Lord Tatsuguchi, just follow the price you said 20 guan per unit."
Zong Qing was not surprised at how cheerful he agreed. He used five taels of gold to buy an iron cannon. The price would be no less if it was placed in Spain. But what does it matter? As long as he thinks it is suitable, it is fine. But the problem is that 250 iron cannons cost 5,000 penalties, and he only had 1,200 gold. So Zong Qing said: "250 iron cannons, plus all the projectile gunpowder in the Chamber of Commerce, 1,200 taels of gold. If possible, trade it now."
When Carl Carlos heard that the gap was not big, he knew that the other party should have only so many, so he didn't bargain and said directly: "Okay, just follow the price of what the adults said, but only this time, next time, it will be at the price of five taels of gold each, and the projectiles can only be given 10 pieces and corresponding gunpowder each." After Carlos agreed, he quickly continued to say that he was just a test. After all, the number of 250 iron cannons is really a lot, and the Nawu can't sell so many in a year, but he must say that after all, the other party paid for it with gold, and he didn't want to do it only once. If he could buy it for a long time, how good would it be, so that he could get gold continuously. If it was a long-term cooperation, even if the price was lower, he would be acceptable. Of course, he would not say this on his own initiative.
This was exactly what Zong Qing said. He was thinking about waiting for the goods to be picked up and asked the other party when the goods were shipped and how large the amount would be. At that time, Anjing Daoton should have already figured out a solution, so it would be better to understand it first. Now that the other party has proposed the idea of long-term cooperation, Zong Qing asked: "Mr. Carlos, I wonder how long it takes to transport a batch of iron cannons, and how many are there?"
After hearing the other party's inquiry, he obviously had the idea of continuing to cooperate. Carl Carlos hurriedly said: "I will come once a year and transport 300 iron cannons at a time. The sales of Nawu are getting worse and worse. If it weren't for you, you wouldn't know when the remaining 250 will be sold."
Only 300 units a year? This number is really small, but it is true to think about it. Europe had not started its industrial revolution at this time. Even if the craftsmanship is good, it was made by hand, so the output of 300 units a year seems to be quite large. However, such a number is only enough for the company to use it themselves. It is no chance to turn the iron cannons back, and if only 300 units a year cannons cannons cannons cannons cannons a year...Songqing will not forget that the Oda family in Ohara has been working hard to develop the iron cannon team. According to historical records, Nobunaga had personally visited Jecho, and there was no need to ask that those who could let him come in person must be for the Southern Barbarian iron cannons. If he was asked to separate or he was all included, how could he develop himself? After seeing the Southern Barbarian iron cannons, Guoyou iron cannons really looked down on them.
