Chapter 926 Cotton on the Road ([-])
Then, Village Chief Jia asked the captain a very important question, whether the price quoted included tax.

The goods brought by overseas merchant ships are heavily taxed, [-]% of the value of the goods.

The 4000 bales of cotton were worth 7000 taels according to the captain's quotation, and the [-]% tax was [-] taels.

After the interpreter babbled and translated, the captain smiled slightly and shook his head, saying that the quotation does not include tax, and no matter how much tax is levied, it will be added to the price as it is.

The wool comes from the sheep, and it seems that the tax paid by the owner will be passed on to the buyer, so each bale of cotton will add two more taels, reaching six taels of silver and one hundred catties.

Captain Jia exchanged opinions with Ma Zhiwen. Ma Zhiwen couldn't help taking a breath when he heard the price after the tax increase, but he still nodded in agreement. No matter what, this batch of goods can't be lost, and the details should be handed over to the higher-ups.

After the two sides exchanged a few more pleasantries, Ma Zhiwen left, and the captain generously gave the four of them a catty of cotton as a gift.

A catty of cotton is enough to make an adult's padded jacket. This gift is really generous. The four of them thanked each other with smiles and got off the boat with their things.

On the return trip, Village Chief Jia drove a boat back to his temporary residence in Liangshui Town to write a letter, while Ma Zhiwen returned to the camp to hurry up and write military documents, and asked the messengers to pack up and go to Donglin County. Before breaking up, the two agreed to wait The messenger came with the military documents, and the young people under the village head Jia drove the boat together.

Qi Ke, who was far away in Siliu Village, saw the live broadcast and ended it here. He didn't look any further, and then he sent letters step by step, waiting for the news to arrive, and the gossip spread slowly.

"The current converted quotation is a package of four taels of silver, between four taels and two taels of silver, let's see how Bai Jiajun bargains." Qi Ke has finalized the lowest delivery price of two taels of silver, but if Bai Jiajun The price I finally accepted was not so low, so I would be happy to earn a little more.

"[-] packs, we keep [-] packs for ourselves, and the Bai family army may eat all the other [-] packs, leaving no surplus for friends."

"Friends and merchants can't buy first-hand goods, so they can buy second-hand cotton from you, and besides, they can also eat first-hand cotton yarn." Zhao Lin changed Qi Ke for a pot of warm water, then poured a cup and put it on her hand.

Qi Ke asked for 85 yuan mainly for the yarn farm, but not all of the [-] jin was invested in the yarn farm, and part of it had to be sold for retail sales. If a friend merchant insisted on taking goods from her, another part would have to be sold, so she prepared Leave half for the yarn field.

Twenty hydraulic spinning machines were running without stopping all day, and Qi Ke didn't know if 40 catties of cotton would be enough for two months of production. Ten thousand catties, otherwise, what should we do if the factory ran out of materials and stopped production before the second batch of cargo was delivered by the ocean ship.

Qi Ke and Zhao Lin discussed what was going on, and found that there was still a piece of land that had not been finalized, which was the site selection for the new pier of Jia Ji Shipping Company.

The abandoned village I was looking at before sent a deputy to survey the geology and landforms. The feedback results were satisfactory. The whole village had to abandon their homes and flee from the flood. According to the analysis from the ruins, it may be caused by the collapse of the embankment. The land of the village itself It is very livable, because the assistants have discovered many tombs for generations, which must have a history of at least 100 years or more than [-] years.

The village is a good village, but the infrastructure cost a lot of money.
