210. Shipment [3/3]
., Shipping
After hearing Chen Yuanyuan's explanation, Yi Yun roughly understood that the Maritime Bureau is actually the customs office. It is reasonable to have a reasonable attitude. He turned to Luo Shanmao and said, "Did you come last time? Did you accept the temporary inspection?"
"No!" Luo Lemao shook his head.
"Well, it doesn't matter. It's called a temporary inspection anyway, which is a temporary inspection. Not every time. This is normal." Yi Yun asked the boat to lean on his big ship, and the bandits hung down the ropes and pulled the inspector up.
In order to avoid unnecessary trouble, the inspector just got on the boat, Yi Yun reported himself: "I am Prince Jiashan of the Great Man, the prince of the Prince of Yu, and the commander of the anti-Japanese front line. This time I got some Sichuan specialties to Ningbo for sale..."
After reporting the title, the inspector almost didn't scare to pee his pants, his whole body trembled, and said in surprise: "Really?"
"Isn't this nonsense? Have you ever seen someone pretending to be these official positions?" Yi Yun took out the imperial edict and shook it.
The inspector knelt on the deck with a thud and said loudly: "Little man... cough... he didn't recognize the prince, but he actually stopped the prince's ship for inspection. He really didn't know how to live or die. He offended the prince, so he spared his life..."
Yi Yun: "..."
Is it so exaggerated? Why am I killing you because of this little thing? I need to ask for a life-saving life? Yi Yun said impatiently: "Get up and talk, what's your name?"
The inspector said carefully: "The villain is named Chen Xiaoliu."
"Well, I have just come to Ningbo and I am not familiar with the place. Now I will recruit you as a guide for me. Let me put down my position as an inspector for the time being." Yi Yun said unreasonably.
"Yes! It's better if you don't do that little bit of work than running errands for the prince." Chen Xiaoli's skill in flattering is really not a big deal. It makes people feel comfortable when they open their mouths.
Yi Yun nodded. This man was very clever and easy to use. He casually ordered: "From now on, I will visit Ningbo in a sub-dress and don't want to reveal my identity. Now I am a businessman from Sichuan named Long Potian. The people in the Jianghu gave me a nickname called 'Long Po Jiutian'. Do you remember?"
"Little man remember!" Chen Xiaoli lay on the side of the boat and shouted to the small boat waiting for him below: "Look below, this big boat is the merchant ship of the big merchant Long Potian Long, a big merchant from Sichuan. You can quickly lead the boat and find a quiet and comfortable pier for the merchant ship to dock."
The boat received the order and led the way forward, walking through the dense sea of ships on the dock. Luo Lemao drove the Golden Melis and entered the port. After a while, he arrived at a clean dock. This dock should have been reserved for special people, not as crowded as other docks. There were several large ships parked next to it, and many empty positions were left.
Yi Yun was secretly happy: Chen Xiaoli is a useful person. If he hadn't helped, he wouldn't have found such a good dock when he was just a first-timer.
He dropped the anchor and tied the rope to the wooden posts on the dock. Luo Lemao asked the water bandits to put wooden boards on the dock and the side of the boat. Yi Yun slowly walked off the boat accompanied by Chen Yuanyuan and Chen Xiaoli.
As soon as he got off the boat, a middle-aged man with crooked eyebrows and squinted eyes came up and said with a smile: "Where did this master come from? Are you here to sell goods or purchase goods? If you need someone to introduce you to the business, please choose me. I will only charge a little introduction fee."
Chen Xiaoli smiled and scolded: "Waiyan San, use your big move to see who I am? The guests I welcomed, you dare to come to collect business and charge an introduction fee? I don't want to be in trouble."
The crooked three-eyed look at Chen Xiaoli and was shocked: "Inspector Chen... Why are you here? This one is..."
Chen Xiaoxiu hummed, "This is a big businessman from Sichuan, Long Potian, Young Master Long, who is famous in the Sichuan territory, nicknamed "Long Po Jiutian". It's amazing. You should send me a message. Who dares to disrespect Mr. Long on this dock? I'll swell his eggs."
Yi Yun frowned and cursed: "Vulgar, have you seen a beautiful woman beside me? What kind of eggs are not eggs? Isn't it disgusting?"
Chen Xiaoli was startled and quickly said to Yi Yun: "It's a small one, it's a small one, it's just a slap in his mouth."
"Forget it, let's not be the case." Yi Yun waved his hand and turned to Chen Yuanyuan and said, "Look at how ugly this guy speaks, that thing shouldn't be called JOUG, it should be called JOUGDAN... It sounds much better, right?"
"Puchi!" Chen Yuanyuan covered her stomach and bent over and laughed.
The Waiyan San next to him was frightened again. What's the origin of this Long Potian? He actually called Chen Xiaoqiu, the inspector. Chen said the wrong thing and actually said he wanted to slap his mouth. Big man... It's a big man!
As soon as the wicked eyes moved, he wanted to escape, but Chen Xiaoliu said, "Don't escape, stay here to work for Mr. Long... As for the introduction fee..."
Weiyan San quickly collected his feet and said, "Of course, the introduction fee is not charged. Mr. Long, what do you want to tell the younger one to do, just say it."
Yi Yun glanced at the two guys and snorted: "I brought some goods from Sichuan, and wanted to find a buyer who knew the goods. You two would help me. In addition, I also want to buy a batch of muskets, preferably from Fusang. You can also find a shipping one for me."
Waiyansan and Chen Xiaomei looked at each other, and then they said together: "This matter is easy to deal with. You can wait, let's go and arrange it now."
The two of them quickly ran away. After a while, Weiyan San came back first. It seemed that he was going to find the goods to receive them, so he searched very quickly. Two tall Westerners followed him.
Yi Yun looked carefully and found that the two Westerners were over 30 years old, at least 1.8 meters tall, with golden hair and blue eyes. They were separated by a long distance, and they greeted in a half-baked cute voice: "Hello... I heard you have some unique goods..."
Yi Yun hugged his fists and laughed: "Haro, buy Lemen clothes Rilong Possess the sky."
"Huh?" The two Westerners were stunned for a long time, and one of them said, "What you said... seems to be in English?"
Yi Yun laughed and said, "That's right, my buddy's English has not passed the CET-4, but also passed the CET-2 (self-proclaimed), and she is extremely powerful. Do you want to talk to me a few words?"
The two Westerners shrugged: "Sorry, we don't understand English... We are Spanish and don't learn damn British."
"Shenma?" Yi Yun was furious. My buddy worked hard to learn English in later generations, and finally got a level 2 (self-proclaimed) level. You can't use it? It's too much, I can't even speak English, idiot.
In fact, the British Empire had not yet risen at this time, and the Empire of the Sun never set was still the title of Spain. Therefore, most of the people who sailed on the sea were Spanish, and occasionally Portuguese warships were rampant. As for Britain, they were still playing with small boats at this time.
One of the Spaniards introduced himself: "My name is Diego Rodriguez de Silva Velasquez, and the one next to me is called..."
"Stop!" Yi Yun Dahan: "Who can remember your name so long? No, no! I'll give you a name for the cute country. It's easier to call it. You'll be called Xiyi, and the next person is Xiyi. How about it? It sounds very nice."
Spanish:"……"
Yi Yun decided that the adults would not care about villains and would not compete with these savages who could not understand English. He said that the matter would be serious. He hummed, "I have some strange goods, I guarantee you have never seen them... Come on, please move our Sichuan specialties down for Westerners to see."
After a while, Shu brocade, Shu embroidery, Mengding tea, Luzhou Laoyao wine, and Qingcheng silk blanket were brought down from the ship and placed in front of Xiyi and Xiyi.
"Oh, this is a kind of silk!" Xiyi picked up Shujin and looked at it, "But it's a little different from the silk we usually buy."
Yi Yun smiled and said, "You are quite good at it. The silk you usually buy should mainly be Yunjin from Nanjing and Songjin from Suzhou. It is different from what I brought. This silk comes from Chengdu and is called Shujin. It is mostly woven with dyed cooked silk threads. It has bright colors and tough texture. Shujin is because of its long history and unique craftsmanship..."
The two Westerners nodded: "What you said is indeed good. We are very interested in this completely different silk... I don't know what the price is?"
Yi Yun spread his hands: "The price is... one percent more expensive than Yunjin and Song Jin!"
"What? Why is it 10% more expensive?" Xiyi and Xiyi immediately protested: "Although we can see that it is unique, it may not be better than Yunjin and Songjin in terms of quality."
"Tsk!" Yi Yun habitually took out the fan and shook it in his hand: "Look, the other Western ships next to them all purchase silk..."
"That's right!" Xiyi Xier said: "Everyone uses the same purchase price. If the silk we buy here is of the same quality but the price is higher, we will not make more money."
"no!" Yi Yun shook his head and said, "Do you know what differentiated management is? Well, forget it, I don't think you will understand. Let me teach you, to simply describe differentiated management, which means selling different things from others and occupying different markets. You see, other merchants sell Yunjin and Songjin, and only you transported back to Europe is Shujin. This is your unique advantage. No one can compare with you, and you can increase the selling price by 20%..."
When Yi Yun spoke, Xiyi and Xiyi immediately shouted: "It's obvious that the quality is similar, but the style is different. Can this cause differentiation?"
"Idiot!" Yi Yun said with a lesson: "The same quality is the same when painting with paper and pen. Are oil paintings and abstract paintings facing the same market?"
"Oh, what you said makes sense... Huh? You are obviously from the country of cuteness, so why do you know oil paintings and abstract paintings? These are things that only we in Europe have..." Xiyi and Xiyi Daqi.
"Tsk, I not only know oil paintings and abstract paintings, but also Lisbon and Madrid..." Yi Yun smiled wickedly: "Don't fool me, I know that you buy goods here and take them back to Europe to sell, and the price in the middle will increase by at least ten times. My purchase price here is one percent higher, and I will use it to increase by 20 percent to sell. This will definitely make more money than other merchants."
Xiyi and Xiyi spread their hands: "Oh, you are so smart, okay, let's try differentiated management... We have all wanted these Shujin."
