Chapter 17 Door-to-door salespeople are serious people
Bao continued: "We have noticed that you seem to have extraordinary prestige and power in the local area, although your prestige is not large.
But this has a foundation for our existence!
More importantly, you dare to resist the courage of the Paradise Hill Church. This gives us a foundation for cooperation.”
Sure enough, a person’s reputation is the foundation!
Zhou Tunan just clashed with a church in Shuikou Town, and immediately gained great fame.
Not only were the forces around Zhenfeng County surrendered and sold out, but also the foreigners who were against the church came!
Well, of course, this is also related to the fact that the Pingshan Coal Mine is not far from Taiping Yizhuang, so I happened to hear the news!
Zhou Tunan asked with interest: "Oh? Then what can you bring to me?"
"arsenal!"
"Arsenal! We can build an arsenal for your country or the forces you belong to, and teach you a complete set of techniques...
Or steel mills, steam turbines, and all other modern technologies that interest you!" Bao Dao.
For such a moment, Zhou Tunan was really moved.
Could it be that these guys are really international friends? They actually came to spread their technology on their own initiative?
Moreover, these international friends who specialize in spreading technology are not welcomed...
However, Zhou Tunan then laughed, without commenting, waiting for Bao to continue talking.
“We can also build schools in your territory and spread advanced knowledge…”
Bao looked at Zhou Tunan's face and saw that Zhou Tunan seemed not very interested, so he continued: "Of course, we can also provide you with various weapons and ammunition directly. If you don't want to build your own factory!"
Zhou Tunan asked: "What is the price? What is the price?"
Bao said bluntly: "Gold, silver. All precious metals and gems are OK...
Even if you can’t even come up with these, you can give your faith and help the priests sent by our prophet king preach!”
Zhou Tunan laughed loudly. After a long time, these guys were actually salesmen.
He read the historical records of the Warring States Policy in his previous life, and often saw those well-known lobbyists who often made sensational statements when they went to meet the convincing partner...
For example, as soon as they met, they told the king that your country was about to perish. If you get seriously ill, you will die of illness...
Later I found out that these are lobbyists' routines.
Well, according to a more modern term, it is called speech!
Then I walked to the edge of the park with you, and suddenly a fortune teller stood up and said to you, "Little brother, I see that your Yin Tang is dark, I'm afraid there will be a bloody disaster..."
It’s obvious that these guys in front of you are playing this routine!
What they said so much has gone around a huge circle. In fact, it is nothing more than selling products.
But Zhou Tunan is not easy to refuse!
Zhou Tunan asked with interest: "If I want to buy arms, what price is it?"
After hearing this, Bao was excited and spoke immediately.
About two minutes later, Zhou Tunan calmly sent away the foreigners who were excited because they had negotiated a big business.
As soon as he turned around, he saw Lao Wang rubbing his hands excitedly and asked, "Master Dao, are you planning to do a big fight?"
Zhou Tunan shook his head slightly: "It's just a precaution!"
He had completely torn his face with the Governor Xu Baoning.
Now, due to Zhou Tunan's threat, Xu Baoning probably didn't dare to do anything to him for a while.
But Zhou Tunan believes that as long as there is a chance, Xu Baoning will definitely not let him go...
Although Zhou Tunan will never give Xu Baoning a chance to take action, there will be no mistakes in many things to prepare for more.
Anyway, he is not without money now!
The money brought back from Heihu Mountain costs 70,000 to 80,000 taels of silver.
Not to mention, during this period, Taiping Yizhuang's prestige has increased greatly, and the gifts sent by various forces are worth tens of thousands or 20,000 taels.
All of these have been added up to nearly 100,000 taels.
So much money cannot be eaten or drunk, and Zhou Tunan is not a wealthy slave. He puts the money into mold in the cellar? Of course, it will be better to change it to weapons and ammunition.
As for the arsenal...
Of course, Zhou Tunan knew that with hens, there was no fear of eating without eggs.
So of course Zhou Tunan built one!
Don’t get me wrong, most arsenals in this era are the size of small workshops. A few machines can be used to produce them.
Moreover, the machines purchased by Zhou Tunan are mainly used to make some bullets and guns for repair.
But Old Wang didn't care about that much. He was excited and asked, "When will those things be delivered? I won't be delivered from that second new continent, right? It will take at least one or half a year..."
Zhou Tunan shook his head slightly and said, "That Bao said that it would be two months slower, and it would be half a month fast, and things would be delivered.
At that time, Lao Wang, please find someone to accept it and pay the final payment by the way."
Old Wang was slightly stunned and asked, "Master Dao, aren't you going to go out far again, are you?"
Zhou Tunan shook his head slightly and said, "I am planning to go into seclusion recently and practice hard for a while!"
After hearing this, Lao Wang was truly relieved.
In the past, when Zhou Tunan went out for a run, Lao Wang not only did not object, but also supported him very much. After all, it was not good to stay at home.
But in the current situation, Zhou Tunan is not in charge in Taiping Yizhuang. It really doesn’t work!
Who knows if those foreign missionaries will come to kill at this time?
"Also, the foreigner Ivan I brought back, you must be treated well. Don't neglect it! Be optimistic about him, don't let him run away..."
Halfway through Zhou Tunan dialect, he stopped first.
At this time, Zhou Tunan realized that his subordinates were weak and lacked masters.
Once I go into seclusion and want to run away with Ivan's ability, no one in Taiping Yizhuang can stop this person!
Zhou Tunan thought about it and handed over the Tiandiao token to Lao Wang and said, "You should be able to see that foreigner with this!"
Lao Wang should have been embarrassed, but he was a little embarrassed: "That foreign zombie has to drink blood every day. Not to mention cows and sheep blood, at least it also needs fresh chicken blood and rabbit blood. This is too much money!"
Zhou Tunan smiled slightly: "He is worth spending so much money!"
Knowledge is priceless.
The knowledge and information that Ivan mastered in his mind was more than that little value!
Thinking of this, Zhou Tunandao: "I'll go and see him first!"
Zhou Tunan came to the room where Ivan lived. This guy was writing hard, saying something.
For this vampire, it is only at night that they are truly active.
Although the day can be barely active, its strength is greatly weakened, and it is collectively said that it will spend the sleep.
Taiping Yizhuang has a strong evil here, which is a very comfortable environment for vampires!
