Chapter 112 Just wool

The two started arguing like this, but Ha Hu was confused. Until the two of them were so thirsty that they carefully raised their hands: "That... I probably understand what you mean. Are you worried that there will be insufficient supplies to continue on the road, right?"

Li Daoan took a sip of water and said angrily: "Huh, that's right, why are you asking this? Are you not going to sell it?"

"You misunderstood. Actually, what I want to say is that you don't have to worry about this at all." Hahu laughed: "Our tribe really cannot host a caravan as big as yours, but there is more than one Biande Department in this area."

"Cough cough...what do you mean?" Ding Shan, who was drinking water, almost choked to death by the water when he heard this. After coughing a few times, he asked hurriedly.

Ha Hu smiled silly and explained: "In fact, this pasture originally belonged to a large tribe with more than 30,000 people, called the Yundeluo tribe. This area is all the territory of the Yundeluo tribe. But a big war broke out here a few days ago, and the Yundeluo tribe disappeared after the war. Only our Biande tribe can occupy this place.

However, the Biande tribe is just a small tribe and does not occupy much pasture at all. Therefore, there were no less than ten tribes gathered here during this period. The farthest distance is less than fifty miles away from us. You will rest in our tribe with peace of mind, and we will naturally notify the surrounding tribes to do business with you.

As for water, there is no need to worry about it. There is a river nearby, which is the main reason why Yundeluo tribe is willing to occupy it. The surrounding tribes are all fetching water here, let alone 5,000 people, even 50,000 people are enough for you to drink.”

"Is this true? It's so good. I misunderstood you just now. I'm really embarrassed." Li Daoan realized that he had become a villain and quickly apologized.

"It's no big deal, you're too polite."

"By the way, Brother Hahu, please tell them when you notify them, and say that our caravan will give priority to purchasing wool." Since the supply problems were solved, Ding Shan naturally put his mind back on business.

"Wool? What do you want this?" Hahu asked strangely.

"What do you want wool?" The great elder of the Biande tribe asked the same question as Hahu.

"Actually, I don't know this either. It was our master who asked us to buy it." Li Daoan drank a glass of macadamia wine and yawned. He was so crazy yesterday that he didn't wake up at all.

It was the next morning when we said this. Yesterday afternoon, after the caravan arrived, they were greeted with an extremely grand welcome banquet. The caravan and tribal people sang and danced and reveled all night until the end of the ugly hour. Today, they were pulled up by the anxious elders of Biande Ministers. They could not wait. If it weren't for the guests, they would have started trading yesterday.

So with dark circles, Li Daoan opened some of the goods...

He still underestimated the demand for goods by the grassland people. He opened a total of six trucks of goods, namely iron, salt, tea, silk and porcelain. He thought that these six trucks of goods were enough to eat, but he didn't expect that such a few goods could not satisfy the appetite of the Biande Ministry. Not to mention the people who gradually gathered here, even Wu Zheren and several elders were not enough. You should know that their cars were a large truck that could hold eight boxes of goods. Six trucks were forty-eight boxes of goods, but they did not even satisfy the appetite of five or six elders. Li Daoan felt that his previous experience in business was fake.

"Can you eat so much goods?" In the end, I couldn't help but feel curious. Li Daoan stopped the elder and asked.

"Of course I can't eat it." The elder happily hugged a piece of silk without raising his head: "But we can't eat it, some people can eat it."

That's all, if Li Daoan doesn't understand, he will be a businessman for so many years in vain. The reason is very simple. The grassland is too big. After all, it is only a few tribes that can meet caravans. Some tribes will buy goods in large quantities after meeting merchants. After that, they will meet tribes that have not met caravans, and they will raise some prices and then change hands. The profits are not a small amount.

The reason why Li Daoan didn't expect this was mainly because his previous business was too small, and he could basically sell it all at once as long as he met a tribe. He had heard other caravans talk about this kind of thing before, but he had never experienced it.

"By the way, do you want sheep or cattle or horse in this transaction?"

"No, we only need wool."

"..." So the above conversation came about.

"Why, you can't have burned it?" Li Daoan thought they had already dealt with the wool, and immediately said sadly: "It's bad now. The master only has wool and doesn't want anything else. It seems that I can only go to another tribe to see it."

"That's not. In fact, our wool is all saved and we haven't had time to deal with it." Although it's strange why Li Daoan wants wool, the most important thing now is to sell his wool: "I just don't know how much you want, and what price you are going to pay?"

"The more wool, the better, we want as much as we want. As for the better price negotiation, we divided it into third grades according to the difference in the quality of wool. The best cashmere is ten kilograms per cent, the second-class refined wool is twenty kilograms per cent, and the worst coarse wool is fifty kilograms per cent." Li Daoan said this and drank a sip of water, ignoring the great elder who was about to drool, and continued to say in a plain tone: "However, given that this is the first acquisition, you may not have been classified wool. Therefore, before my home owner came out, my family's owner specifically explained that the price of wool this time is calculated based on 20 kilograms per cent. Of course, if you really classify it, I will also purchase it at the established price. I wonder if you are satisfied or not?"

"Satisfied, just calculate it at this price." Without waiting for the consent of the elder, Wu Zheren, who was eavesdropping outside, rushed in quickly and ignored the gesture of the elder's eyes and said anxiously: "Mr. Li Daoan, you are such a good person. Our business is settled."

"Good, Chief Wu Zheren is indeed a cheerful person, so our business has been settled." Li Daoan originally thought they might bargain, but who knew that such a chief was so cheerful, so he gave him free information: "Tell me the truth, my master is the son of the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty, His Highness of the King of Yue, and the current Turkic Protectorate, who is in charge of all civil and military affairs on the grassland. So this wool business has great potential, and you can raise a large number of sheep in the future."

"What? It's His Highness King Yue." The Great Elder didn't bother to stare at Wu Zheren, and stared at Li Daoan incredible: "Sir Li Daoan, do you know if His Highness King Yue has a deadline to purchase wool?"

"Anyway, don't worry, Your Highness King Yue said that wool is of great use. No matter how much you produce, he can eat it." Li Daoan seemed to know the concerns of the Great Elder, and he couldn't help but explain: "And you are not far from the Great Protectorate. You can transport the wool to the Great Protectorate for sale. There are officials who specialize in purchasing wool there, and the price will be higher. If someone dares to cheat you, you can also go to the Great Protectorate to complain, and Your Highness will make the decision for you."

"Really? We can also go to the Protectorate's House to sell wool?" The elder looked surprised: "Is there anything we need there?"

"Of course, we actually bought our goods there. The goods there are not only a large number, but also a wide variety than caravans." Recalling the mountain of goods in the Protectorate's House, Li Daoan felt proud, but he still asked with great responsibility: "In other words, how much wool do you have here?"

"We have no statistics on this, but according to the ten kilograms of hair of a sheep, our tribe has 500,000 sheep, about 5 million kilograms. Even if there is some loss in the middle and what we use for our own felt, there will definitely be four million kilograms left."

"...so much?" Although he was mentally prepared, Li Daoan was still a little surprised when he heard such a number.

Wu Zheren laughed and explained, "Hahaha, our tribe is still a small number. We mainly raise cattle and horses. The Hulu tribe in the west is a tribe that specializes in raising sheep. It is said that their sheep has exceeded 1.5 million. You should know that the Hulu tribe is a little less than our Biande tribe."

The elder said with envy, "So I am very envious of Hulufan now. They will definitely make a fortune this year."

"Uh..." Wu Zheren was immediately hit, and finally gritted his teeth and slapped his legs, saying, "Next year we will raise a large number of sheep and will not raise cattle."

"This is not necessary." Li Daoan smiled and said, "Although we mainly purchase wool, we also need cattle and horses very much. Because the Tang Dynasty also needs a large amount of cattle and plowing land, cattle, sheep and horses are actually within our transaction scope. However, wool is preferred. If there is really no wool, living cattle, sheep and horses are also OK."

"Are you finished saying this? I thought you only had wool." Wu Zheren stood up suddenly and felt proud: "Give me eight more boxes of salt and silk."

"Hahaha......"
