Starting from the bright sword to engage in military industry

Chapter 626 Chapter 635, do a small business

"Hahaha... make money, don't shudder... Chinese people's wisdom in money is indeed unmatched." Aso Keiji laughed and said: "Now that we have reached this point, let's explain it. Now it is During the war, the most expensive things during the war are ammunition and medicine."

"Things like perfume are only liked by the wives and ladies of high-ranking officials in Chongqing. Mr. Mao Li behind you uses perfume as an exchange material, isn't it a little confused? This is not what a businessman should do. Some qualities."

"Hahaha... I studied at Kyoto University, and I have been following Mr. Mori for some years. One of the words Mr. Mori often said is that in business, it is not only that you earn and I lose, but that you make money and I also make money , This is called a win-win situation!"

"You know, there is a war in Europe now, and the sea traffic has become more complicated. Therefore, the transportation of some bulk materials has become more difficult. And luxury goods such as perfume, yes, Mr. Maori called it Luxury goods. Such luxury goods have high value and light weight, which is the most suitable.”

"Perfume, of course, we want to share a batch of dried fruit for sale. But...we also need a stable business channel, which needs to pass through some areas controlled by the empire and preserved fruit. So, take out some perfume , as a bargaining chip, it is necessary to exchange for some goods strictly controlled by the empire! Items such as gasoline, explosives, bullets, rubber, medicines, etc. are all good things."

"In addition, if the empire needs it, Mr. Maori can also get a large amount of cotton from the Guanzhong area controlled by the preserved fruit, or the sterilized cotton made by Huaxi Pharmaceutical Factory. I wonder if Mr. Aso is interested in buying it? Mr. Maori and the Kong family still have some origin."

In Yoshimitsu Aoi's words, a fictitious Mr. Maori was described as a big businessman who could resell supplies back and forth between the Japanese-occupied area and the food-occupied area.There are actually many such businessmen, and the financial masters behind them are inseparable from the four major families.

"The Kong family... Sodersnei... When the Ming Dynasty collapsed, the Kong family did a lot of business with Miqing behind the scenes to make money... Well, I don't have much material here, but there are not many. If you can If I promise to provide 20 boxes of perfume a month, I can pay you with gasoline. As for the price..." Aso stretched out his hand, retracted his arms, and covered his palm with his sleeve.

"Yuxi, it seems that Aso-kun is very familiar with the trading habits of the Chinese... 20 boxes of perfume, the quantity is still a bit large, after all, transportation is not easy. For this price... let's hold hands first..." Aoi Yoshimitsu also agreed Shrinking his arms, he negotiated the price with Aso in his cuffs.This way of negotiating prices is called touching money in the sleeves, and it can prevent people around you from lowering prices and competing after hearing the prices.

Moreover, Shanxi merchants also invented a calculation method called swallowing gold in the sleeves, which is to pinch the two hands in the sleeves and simulate the abacus for calculation.

Soon, the price of perfume exchanged for gasoline was negotiated by the two in their sleeves, and then both parties laughed, it seemed that they both made a profit.Naturally, Aso would not sell perfume in the Japanese-occupied area, and even if it sold, it would not be in a small place like Licheng.

This kind of luxury can be sent back to China, or sent to some big cities, there are huge profit margins.As for whether Aso is interested in the origin of Mr. Maori?Just make money.

"Mr. Aso, Mr. Mao Li still has many business channels here, and I am just one of the youngest. This time, I am also exploring business routes. Mr. Mao Li has also developed some influence over the years, and even searched for ancient Chinese recipes. , made some Chinese patent medicine pills.”

"This time, I also brought a trial product. Sigh, last month, we tried to enter the Lu'an area under the guise of Tuo Qiao's family to open up trade routes, but we were arrested by armed men who appeared from nowhere in Lucheng. The attack has caused heavy losses. Take it, this is a trial product, take a look..."

After Aoi finished speaking, he took out a small porcelain bottle, which contained 5 aphrodisiac pills, the kind of pills that can really kill you if you use too much.

"This medicine..." Keiji Aso looked at Aoi suspiciously.

"This medicine is taken from a secret recipe in the Chinese court, and it is for the emperor. You know, there are many women in the emperor's harem..." Aoi said.

"Yaoxi, Yaoxi..." After hearing this, Aso's eyes lit up, knowing that this is a good thing to make money, and it is also a good thing to eat by himself.

A deal was negotiated in this way, but the place of delivery was not in the city.This time Aoi represents the Eight Routes, and with soap, perfume and golden gun pills, he bought dozens of barrels of gasoline, hundreds of catties of salt, hundreds of catties of cooking oil, and even 50 standard items for the devils. medical kit.

Such a transaction was placed at the foot of the mountain north of Licheng, and the devils sent a small team to send the supplies by car.On the Balu side, only a small cart is needed, and it is enough to push a cart of things.However, there are indeed quite a few people who go there to move things.

"Platoon leader, I really want to kill these devils one by one!" Qian Yongfu said, watching the devil convoy going away.

"No, there's no need for that. We have to pay attention to business reputation. Don't worry, the captain said that businessmen are all profit-seeking. When making money, they don't care about morality and law. How do you say it in Das Kapital? Forget it Remember, we only need to remember one thing, as long as these devils are profitable, then our chance will come."

"Do you still remember what the captain said? Aren't we short of gasoline? Trade it with the devils; no explosives? Trade it with the devils, make a bomb and continue to blow up the devils. At most, in order to maintain our business reputation, we exchanged it from the Fourth Division. Explosives, to blow up the Fourth Mixed Brigade...haha..." Li Yuexuan laughed as he spoke.

"Haha... It's not bad to have such a group of devils, at least we can get urgently needed supplies." Li Erniu said.

"But... when it's time to beat them up, we won't be soft! Devils, they are devils after all!" Li Yuexuan continued.

A "simple business activity" ended here, and Li Yuexuan and the others returned to Xijing Town with their belongings. After registering and checking at the headquarters, they left the medical kit for the field hospital, and then returned to Jiuzhai with the remaining belongings.Jiuzhai needs gasoline, salt, steel and other materials.

In Jiuzhai, after Li Yuexuan and the others went back, Hu Changyi simply inquired about the details of the transaction, and didn't focus on it.After all, Minister Zhang deliberately let Hu Changyi put aside these actions, he needs to avoid suspicion.
