Several Chinese business owners present looked at Su Langqing with a bad expression. This time the negotiation was to discuss the tariffs on Nanyang goods coming to Luzon. What does it mean to call buying directly?

Su Langqing didn't care. Anderson's previous words reminded him that it was good to win over the upper class of aristocratic people as a luxury product.

Since the Su family intends to ask for some land from the local chief of the country, instead of giving the Su family its own imitation of wool velvet products, it is better to buy spots directly from the merchants of the Nanyang Company.

Luzon was under the rule of the Spanish for many years, and its chiefs and princes were naturally familiar with luxury goods such as European wool velvets. Giving them to Western wool velvets was more popular among the princes and princes.

For Ming court officials, Su Langqing can also use these Western wool velvets to make some. It is also good to use silk and cotton cloth, and it is also good to use Western wool velvets.

"Of course, Minghai also hopes to transport several ships loaded with cotton and silk to Nanyang." Su Langqing glanced at Anderson and smiled.

"Of course, no problem." Anderson didn't care. It was beyond his expectations to be able to sell these unsold wool velvets.

"Well, the tariffs related to the flow of woolen into the Luzon market..." Anderson glanced at Uda and the others in official uniforms.

"Those who are of the best price for feather satin should be below Doro, and the second one is only equal to those of the best satin." Zhao Zhou took a sip of tea and spoke slowly.

"After 8 feet and 90% off each meter, one cent and eight cents are taxed. The feather satin is as follows the serge satin. The feather satin is made 8 feet and 90% off each meter, and one cent and 8 cents are taxed."

Zhaozhou is also an old man who has been in the shopping mall for a long time. He has his own opinions on how much tariff should be charged for Western luxury goods such as wool and more suitable for import and export, and more suitable for flowing into the Luzon market.

This is also the reason why Liu Yu put the Sihai Chamber of Commerce in full responsibility. Compared with those officials sitting in the court, these Chinese merchants who stayed in Southeast Asia and traded with the Red and Barbarians all year round know the value of goods and how to formulate corresponding tariffs to maximize the control of inflow and sale of goods.

Several Ming court officials discussed with each other, but there was no objection.

For Western treasures such as wilt, their expensive price is destined to be out of reach with the people and they cannot earn much silver. It is not impossible to hand it over to China to negotiate taxes.

"The Ming court hopes to recruit a group of ship craftsmen and technicians from Nanyang Company. I don't know if the Nanyang Company permits it and what quotation is issued." Wuda finally said what the Ming court asked.

What the Luzon Ming court lacks today are warships, the kind of warships that can fight from oceans.

The Big Bird Ship has good performance, but it is as weak as a bird compared to Western battleships. Now the shipyard can only be rebuilt by using the Garen Sailboat, which detained Spanish merchants, with the big sailboat as the main body, and the large sailboat as the main body.

However, there are only so many large ships that can be plundered by the Ming court on the coast of Luzon. The ships that can be modified and collected have been converted into warships by shipyards. These three-masted ships either have a layer of artillery deck or a few six-pound cannons at will, and it is okay to fight pirates. However, if they encounter the Spanish, let alone the battleships, even armed merchant ships, it is enough to let these illegally modified ships drink a pot.

Therefore, the Ming court urgently needed new warships, which is why the Ming court was willing to invest in purchasing second-hand armed merchant ships from Nanyang Company.

"Of course." Anderson nodded without hesitation.

"At the time, our Nanyang Company sent firearm craftsmen and designers to assist you Ming people in producing muskets and small caliber after loading cannons. Now the Ming court hopes that Nanyang Company can send shipmakers to Luzon. Naturally, there is no problem. As long as the price is appropriate, it is in line with the interests of Nanyang Company." Anderson showed a pair of greedy eyes, obviously asking the lion to speak loudly.

"Hmph, it depends on whether your shipmakers in Nanyang Company have real talents and knowledge. If they can build a treasure ship like the Spanish, they can naturally be regarded as a guest of honor." Wuda snorted coldly, obviously dissatisfied with the behavior of the Nanyang people putting pigeons.

"Well, if you want to build a large ship like the Spanish sail battleship, the ship craftsmen in the South China Sea cannot build it. Whether it is the required wood or construction drawings, including shipyards and corresponding workers, artillery and other configurations, there is no one in Nanyang that can be built now." Anderson looked puzzled. He just wanted to extort the sky-high labor costs of Mingren before he could even spit it out.

"That's a pity. At that time, the Nanyang Company appointed 20 Nanyang craftsmen to assist the Ming army in improving firearms. The Ming army paid 2,000 taels of silver for this, and gave a monthly salary and rice coupon every month. It's a pity that it was." Wuda shook his head.

"Sir, the sail battleships that compete with the Spaniards naturally cannot be built, but it is still possible to improve the existing large bird ships of the Ming army and build new types of clutches, Nanyang ship craftsmen." Anderson obviously prepared his homework and also had some understanding of the existing ship types of the Ming army.

"What if I build a light Garen ship?" Uda asked again.

The Garen ship was not only equipped by the Spanish, but also by the South Asians, the Dutch and other Western colonists all equipped the Garen ship.

It’s just that because of their respective national conditions, the South Americans, the Spanish and the Dutch have developed Garen ships with their own characteristics.

In the mid-17th century, the Garen ships used by the Nanyang Company were small Garen sailing ships of 300 to 500 tons.

The Spaniards needed to transport a large amount of gold and silver mined in the Americas, so they used a 1,200-ton behemoth.

The Garen ship designed by the Nanyang people has the wall panels on the lower hull, so that heavy artillery can be placed on the lower deck.

The plump appearance inherited from the Clark sailing was modified, so that the length of the keel was three times the width of the ship, and the structure of the ship building was simplified, especially the size of the front ship building was simplified.

In the end, the Garen warships of the South Asians were better at speed and maneuverability than the Garen warships of the Spanish.

The Queen's ship that the Ming court valued was this type of Garen ship.

The Ming army was salivating about the Queen's ship, which was second only to the Spanish. Unfortunately, Nanyang Company did not sell it.

Now that Nanyang people have built a shopping mall, Wuda naturally has to take the opportunity to ask carefully.

"Uh..." Anderson was speechless. This was obviously beyond his business scope. He was just a businessman. It was already amazing to know the type of ship equipped by Mingren. How could he know whether the shipmakers reserved by the Nanyang Company had the ability to build queen ships?

Even if there is one, it will be offered as a treasure. How could it be sent to Luzon?

"Cough cough..." Zhao Zhou coughed a few times.

"Sir, today we will discuss the matter of Nanyang Shopping Mall. Let's discuss the irrelevant matters in the future." Zhao Zhou said.

Wuda was a little too much this time, and Zhaozhou also had a hint of anger on his face.

This time, when discussing with Nanyang merchants about building a museum in Lavague, Lord Liu Yu handed over the responsibility to the Sihai Chamber of Commerce, mainly to discuss the tariffs on Nanyang commodities entering Luzon and the number of Nanyang merchant ships entering Lavague port, as well as the rights of Nanyang merchants to stay in Luzon after the establishment of the mall.

As a result, a group of Ming court officials talked directly on the warships and artillery.
