Chapter 809, Trek

"My lord, a fleet of ships has arrived at the pier of Guihua City. General Zhang invites you to go back!" one of Yang Feng's personal guards ran over and said out of breath.

Yang Feng asked with a strange expression: "How could there be a fleet of ships coming here?"

Guihua City is more than 3 miles away from Jidu, and there is no gold or silver here. Under normal circumstances, it is impossible for a fleet to come here!

However, Yang Feng came to Guihua City Wharf and found out the reason after meeting Zhang Baiqi. It turned out that this was the transport ship of the Cui family. They wanted to transport goods to Jinshan for sale, but they went to the wrong place. Yang Feng and the others came here. point of reclamation.

They have gone back and forth on the waterway of the New World once, and have a certain understanding, so when the Cui family's fleet departed from Jidu again, they did not sail carefully along the continental shelf, but chose a faster waterway. Crossing the entire Pacific Ocean to the New World, this route saved them more than double the time to reach the New World, but the astrologer they hired miscalculated the latitude, so their fleet did not come to Jinshan, but came home. Huacheng!

At this time, the steward of Cui's family also looked helpless, he really wanted to beat up the astrologer, deviate thousands of miles from the waterway, and push him to an extremely embarrassing position!

"Steward Cui, the manpower you brought, we will pay for the freight, and each person will give you 1 yuan to keep you from losing money. We can also buy food at the price of 1000 yuan a stone, cloth, farm tools, swords and other tools. Buying it at 10 times the price will not make the Cui family suffer!" Zhang Baiqi said proudly.

Although they have made a lot of preparations and hoarded a lot of food and supplies, here in the New World, there will never be enough supplies and manpower. Now that there is a windfall, it is naturally impossible for them to let the fleet leave like this.Of course, they didn't intend to bully others, and bought the supplies on the fleet at 10 times the price. After all, they offended these maritime merchants now, who would dare to make deals with them in the future!
It's just that 10 times the price is naturally high, even sea trade is extremely rare, but he can't do this.

The housekeeper of the Cui Mansion said helplessly: "Generals, please don't embarrass me. These are the supplies that the master prepared for my uncle. If the old man sells them here, I am afraid that the master will kill me!"

When the fleet came to them, they didn't want to sell anything. They wanted to trick them, because they were too old to carry a knife!
The housekeeper saw a group of murderous veterans sweating coldly. These are all great heroes who founded the country, veterans who have been killed in hundreds of battles. If he is killed, his master will not make decisions for him.

Then he asked his subordinates to take out a pack of horseshoe gold and said: "This 10 catties is my reward for you!"

Only Zhang Baiqi said politely to the housekeeper: "Is your Cui family fleet interested in helping Guihua City transport food, cloth and other daily necessities? It can be said that now we need all kinds of goods in Guihua City, and we can do it 10 times bigger Buy the goods you have transported at a price!"

The Cui family went all out to support Xu Hao. Not only did most of their clansmen come to Jinshan City, but even most of their property was used to help Xu Hao build a new continent. Just like their fleet, they bought A large amount of food, cloth, ironware and even spent a huge amount of money to get a group of gold diggers who want to dig for gold. Isn't all this for the rapid development of Xu Hao's Jinshan City!
Hearing this, Yang Feng said seriously: "Are you that Xu Hao who came to suppress us?"

The butler wanted to refuse, but because of the charming eyes of gold, he still took the bag of gold!

But for the gold diggers, it was a bit of a bolt from the blue. They came to the New World to make a fortune, but there was no gold here. How could this not disappoint them!
What made them even more desperate was the prices in Guihua City!

Guihua City is not complete without food, fresh sea fish is still available, such as salt, clear water, fresh seafood and vegetables are all needed by ocean-going fleets.

The butler thought for a while, and knew that if he really didn't leave anything behind, it would hurt the friendship between the two parties. Their uncles would also call these people uncles. These founding heroes were not at all something that a servant like him could offend, so he agreed. up!
Then the steward asked Zhang Bai to carry a ship of goods on their own, and the people in the fleet also disembarked to breathe. They sailed thousands of miles all the way, and they were almost exhausted for more than a month. Now they came to the New World, everyone naturally I want to go to the mainland for a stroll!
Thousands of gold diggers came here with the Cui family's fleet, all of whom wanted to come to the New World to make a fortune. They didn't know that they came to the wrong place because of the astrologer, and they thought they had already come to Jinshan City.

At the same time, the gold diggers and sailors who entered Guihua City were stunned. They soon realized that this was not Jinshan City at all, but Guihua City.It's nothing to the sailors, they still rest here, rest and continue to go north.

At this time, Zhang Baiqi waved his hand and said: "Let's not embarrass the servants. You keep a boat of goods, which is considered as the cost of entering the port. We will take care of your supplies! The immigrants also leave some for us, just like what you just said It's the same, ten thousand dollars per person, I won't let you suffer!"

The butler could only whisper: "It's not that the little old man is playing with the generals, but that I can't do this at all! If the goods are missing, the master will kill the old man!"

When Zhang Baiqi heard this, he clasped his fists and saluted, "Thank you very much!"

Then he asked someone to bring a box of gold and said, "These are the crew's ticket money!"

Yang Feng and the others were delighted to see so many cadres. Even if only a small number of people were left, it would be a big supplement for them. Many people even wanted to secretly recruit more people.

The housekeeper smiled wryly and said: "General Zhang, don't embarrass the little old man. The master doesn't know how to punish the old man for today's incident. If you really want to have such an idea, the old man can spread the news to Daqian. Shang, but if they come or not, the old man can’t keep it!”

A stone of wheat flour can be priced at [-] yuan here!

"Wheat flour made of gold does not have this price!"

A piece of woolen cloth actually costs tens of thousands of dollars, at this price you can buy the best Shu brocade in Jidu.

A kitchen knife costs 200 yuan, and a plowshare costs 2000 yuan. The price of everything here is more than 10 times more expensive than thistle.Only a few items such as salt, sea fish and seafood can let them see the price of Jidu!

The people who can come here cannot be said to be poor and white, but they are definitely not from good backgrounds. The price of goods in Guihua City is so high, these gold diggers have no choice but to find that they can't survive here!
