Chapter 91 Trading
After hearing this, everyone reacted and thought, is this going too far?
Weitz knows this very well. These are not important. What is important is that there is a basis for cooperation.

"Don't worry, if we achieve this level, these people from Taishan will agree, right? After all, this Guan Yu doesn't look like a reckless man." Wei Zi glanced at Guan Yu casually and said easily.

The head of the Cai family sighed lightly, "In this case, the only one left is the head of the Wei family. If this matter is completed, the materials that should be handed over will not be less."

The head of the Xiahou family and the spokesperson of the Cao family also nodded in approval.

Then the four people dispersed and sat down in their seats.

After returning to his seat, Wei Zi did not sit down directly, but looked at Guan Yu.

When Guan Yu saw this, he walked over slowly.

"General Guan, since ancient times, there has been a method of bartering. I wonder if the general can accept it?" Wei Zi also knew how soldiers dealt with things, so he didn't go around too much, pointed out the topic directly, and asked Guan Yu.

When Guan Yu heard this, he felt a little puzzled. He narrowed his eyes slightly and said coldly, "Master Wei, do you know what you are going to give in exchange?"

When Wei Zi heard this question, he felt completely relieved. He was not afraid that you would ask, but he was afraid that you would not ask.

"Can grain and cloth be exchanged?" Weitz directly pointed out the other two de facto universal currencies, the main intermediate representatives of barter.

When Guan Yu heard this, he remembered Liu Tong's explanation before, and replied to Wei Zi, "The material is too heavy, it slows down the march too much, and delays the time for our army to go to duty."

"General, don't worry. The general is from Taishan County. We can send the supplies to Taishan. How about it?" Wei Zi was full of confidence in this and was not afraid of failure at all.

"Master Wei, if you can do this, let's barter. Let's choose food for the transaction." Guan Yu listened to the slight knocking sound coming from the tent nearby, nodded, and agreed with Wei Zi requirements.

"Since General Guan is so willing to barter, the price of grain will be calculated according to the market price. How about we send it to Taishan County and General Guan will receive it? The cost of the journey will be borne by our Wei family." Wei Zi was worried at this time. I can't hide the joy on my face, just agree, nothing else matters.

"I wonder, Master Wei, how many rolls do you want to buy?" Guan Yu looked at Wei Zi, whose face was a little red. He didn't understand why he had such a smile, but after thinking about his previous explanation, he asked directly.

"Don't worry, General Guan, our Wei family wants all these books." Wei Zi pointed to the bamboo slips on the carriage frame, feeling proud.

Guan Yu was stunned after hearing this. This was tens of thousands of volumes, worth a thousand gold. However, after thinking about it for a moment, he reminded him, "Master Wei, there are a total of twelve thousand volumes here. Do you really want them all?" Already?"

"Don't worry, General Guan, I really decided to take it all." Wei Zi gave his quotation without hesitation, "Three hundred million five-baht coins in cash, plus 400 million stones of grain, what do you think of this price, General? And ensure that the grain can be delivered to Taishan County, and the losses on the road will not be included."

After hearing this, Guan Yu felt a little hard to make up his mind. He could only put his hands together, put them down, and listen carefully with his ears.

After getting the results, I nodded in agreement.

Wei Zi watched the deal being completed, nodded with satisfaction, and said directly to Guan Yu, "Don't worry, General Guan, the 400 million and a half baht will be paid directly, and the remaining [-] million stone of grain will be delivered to Mount Tai before July." In the county, I will use the Wei family as my guarantor, so please rest assured, general."

At this time, the other three families also stood up as witnesses.

Everything else went smoothly. The aristocratic family present directly handed over the five baht coins and took away about half of the bamboo slips.The Wei family will bring people over to pick up the remaining bamboo slips when the food arrives.

...

After Weizi completed the transaction and returned to his home, he directly issued orders and delivered various letters.

"Come here, inform me of the shops in Jizhou, Yanzhou, and Xuzhou to purchase grain. After deducting the losses on the road, collect 400 million stones and send them to Taishan County for me." Wei Zi gave the order directly to his servant.

As for how much grain should be purchased in which state, only dedicated personnel will calculate and make reasonable purchase arrangements, and losses on the road will naturally be left out.

Even though the money lost due to such a large purchase was far more than the market price, to Weitz at this time, none of this mattered.

Putting so many bamboo slips in one's own home is a foundation of knowledge that can be passed down, which is much more than money.

Wei Zi then began to think about how to create a safe passage in Taishan County, transport food in, and get the remaining half of the bamboo slips.

Especially after confirming that the book information in the box was all true, I became even more enthusiastic.

...

"Tongtong, is this an accident?" Lu Yi looked at Liu Tong and said, "I didn't expect that the Chen Liuwei family would be so courageous. Including the money spent on the journey, it cost nearly 20 billion yuan, right? .”

Liu Tong also fell silent. Originally, she had some resistance to this kind of behavior. If each family only purchased a small amount, these books would be distributed to many families, and it would be difficult to recruit talents.

Unexpectedly, someone took advantage of him at this time and killed all the bamboo slips by himself, even exceeding the cost.

These bamboo slips obtained by the Wei family at such a high price must be regarded as the inherited knowledge of the family, just like those families.

"Why do you feel that it has become better inexplicably?" Liu Tong listened to this information and said to Lu Yi, "There are many aristocratic families in the world who have thousands of books. Although no one sells them, aristocratic families are still aristocratic families. For The thirst for knowledge always feels like it has reached a morbid level.”

Just like the Romans' desire for silk, Bei Gui's desire for a princess is completely confusing.

"Tongtong, every family has a lot of books, but few will truly open their study rooms and hand over knowledge to others, and even use force to rob them. There are also many who fail. ." Lu Yi thought about the previous transaction behavior, and then said, "There are only a handful of knowledge that can be obtained through normal transactions. As long as the family has the ability to pay, they will not refuse. As for those who are unable to pay, they will not refuse. , they are probably thinking of some strange methods."

Liu Tong thought for a while, nodded, and agreed with Lu Yi's words. If the family released their knowledge, it would not be called a family.

A great scholar might be able to spread knowledge, but an aristocratic family would never do it. That is what really supports their family's inheritance.
