Chapter 428 Promoting Business
Looking at it from the bright side, although Xiliang City suffered a disadvantage, it gave Ma Yun great benefits.

However, Li Gu is not a fool. He gave Ma Yunqi so many benefits. On the one hand, the two parties can maintain a cooperative relationship.

Ma Yunqi got the benefits from Xiliang City, so it is impossible not to send some gifts in return, so he promised Li Gu that if there is a good horse in the shop, Xiliang City has the right of first refusal, but if Xiliang City does not want it, Then it will be sold to someone else.

After listening, Li Gu did not object.

On the next day, Ma Yunqi led a thousand horse thieves, dragged a mighty [-] horses, and entered Xiliang City under the heavy inspection of Xiliang City guards to join Xiliang Business.

Xiliang City started selling horses.

In the commercial district in the east of the city, Ma Yunqi's shops are three times larger than those of other players (that is, the walls of the three shops have been opened and decorated), which makes Ma Yunqi feel proud.

How the business in Xiliang City is like, Ma Yunqi has long said to the old people living in the city, or Ma Yunqi has been coveting for a long time, when someone gives pillows when he is not dozing off, Li Gu is still very good at life, In private, Ma Yunqi presented a batch of Maxima Li Gu as a gift, and Li Gu accepted it without saying a word. He had given so many benefits to the horse thief in Xiliang.

Ma Yunqi is a smart man, and he is the only one in the horse industry in Xiliang City, so the business in the future can be said to come one after another, but on the first day of opening, he must make a name for himself.

The things in the store have already been prepared, and they are waiting for Ma Yunqi's people to move in.

After a while, under the cheers and applause of Xiliang horse thief and Xiliang horse thief's relatives, "Wei Que Bole" officially opened, and Ma Yunqi named it himself.

Outside the crowd, Li Gu was watching with Gotulu indifferently, thinking that this Ma Yunqi had really read a few books, and even Bole knew him.

Suddenly, Gotulu whispered in Li Gu's ear, "Lieutenant General, here we come."

Li Gu looked back and saw Tian Yinke walking towards him with four guards with knives. past.

"I've seen the lieutenant general." Li Gu and Gotulu bowed their hands respectfully to Tian Yinke.

Tian Yinke nodded, looked at the crowd and said with a smile, "Today is much more lively than usual."

"Today, Ma Yunqi's shop officially opened, and the relatives of horse thieves living in the city came to join in the show. Naturally, it was much more lively than usual." Li Gu didn't dare to neglect at all. This deputy general is not as good as he seems Simple, just imagine that a person can go deep into the capital alone, find out so many confidential information, and even get back one of the legendary seven ancient swords, would such a person be easy?And when he was in the capital, he was the commander of Jinyiwei. What kind of position was that?The emperor's real soldiers.

A person who is trusted even by the emperor of the Celestial Dynasty, this person's city mansion is not so deep.

Tian Yinke didn't know how Li Gu thought of him. To Li Gu, Tian Yinke only regarded him as an ordinary NPC. Look at it differently.

Today, Tian Yinke is the deputy guard of Xiliang City. Seeing that Tian Yinke first arrived in Xiliang City, he was absolutely bored and arranged four guards with swords for him. Let Tian Yinke familiarize himself with the situation in the city first.

"Mr. Li, what are they going to do?" Tian Yinke couldn't help asking Li Gu when he saw three tall and strong horses pulled out from the door of "Wei Que Bo Le".

Li Gu frowned slightly, looked over, shook his head and said, "My subordinates don't know too well." But he had some concerns in his heart. He was not afraid of Ma Yunqi's people making trouble, but there was a new lieutenant general by his side, who knew How is his temper?Jin Yiwei is very cruel.

Ma Yunqi came out, cupped his hands to the people around him and said in a loud voice: "Today, the shop below is open, thank you for your support, just to win the lottery..." Then he pointed to the three horses and said: "Be the first to take this The three thousand-mile horses are up for sale, I wonder if you are interested?"

The players and merchants present naturally saw that the three horses were unreasonable, but they did not expect to be a thousand-mile horse. This is a really good horse, so someone asked how much it would cost?

"No money." When Ma Yunqi heard someone ask how much it was, Ma Yunqi's expression turned a little off. He has been bartering with Xiliang City all along. Where did he talk about money?

"No money?" When many players heard this, they were all puzzled and chattered.

Ma Yunqi raised his voice and continued: "Yes, no money, only food and weapons and equipment."

Then, it caused a sensation.

Another person asked, "How much is it for a thousand-mile horse?"

Hearing someone ask this question, Ma Yunqi was overjoyed, and quickly said: "A thousand weapons, a thousand sets of equipment (including helmets and shoes), ten thousand catties of flour, and three thousand catties of meat."

People who don't know know that Ma Yunqi is preparing to fight, and those who know know that Ma Yunqi's Xiliang horse thieves are fighting with foreign horse thieves. It is natural to want these, but...

A thousand weapons and a thousand sets of equipment will cost 5000 copper coins for a set of cheapest weapons, regardless of the quality. A thousand sets is five hundred gold. One thousand sets is one thousand gold, and fifteen hundred gold is not expensive to buy a thousand-mile horse, but...

Meat is cheaper, between 500 copper coins and 1000 copper coins (there are animal monsters everywhere in the game, you can kill them and sell their meat to the store, so meat is very cheap) I don’t need to mention it; but this flour, it’s embarrassing People, the price of a catty of white noodles sold by the system is between seven and ten gold.

Regardless of odds, 15 gold to buy a thousand-mile horse seems too expensive, right?

The price of horses sold in other city systems: 5000 copper coins for low-quality horses, [-] gold coins for medium horses, and [-] gold coins for high-quality horses.

As for why many players are interested in the horses here, there is no doubt that the performance of horses produced in Xiliang is three or four times higher than that of similar horses in other cities, and there are no Maxima for sale in other cities, but they are not returned. A thousand-mile horse doesn't need to be so expensive, does it?
All of a sudden, everyone lost interest. Those who should go back to look at the shop go back to look at the shop, and those who should go to repair the city wall go to repair the city wall.

Ma Yunqi was dumbfounded all of a sudden, no one wanted it so cheap?The people also dispersed, leaving only the relatives of the Xiliang horse thief, Xiliang people and players who had been shopping back and forth, but none of them walked towards Ma Yunqi's shop.

Noticing that the people surrounding "Wei Que Bole" dispersed, Li Gu hurriedly dragged Tian Yinke to one side of the wall, for fear of being discovered by Ma Yunqi.

At this moment, Li Gu lost all his anger. He didn't expect Ma Yunqi to be smart enough to sell it to other merchants at his own price. This is undoubtedly the most stupid behavior.

Don't mention the joy in Li Gu's heart.

"The thief is hard to change, and the lion opened his mouth as soon as he came." Tian Yinke also bought a few horses, and he knew the price of weapons and equipment, but he didn't know the price of white flour and meat. When the price was lowered, Tianyinke was taken aback.

Professional merchant players are very clear about the prices of the items sold and purchased in each city system, and they will know the price fluctuations immediately, because this is their way of making money, such as the sale of silk brocade in Yangzhou and Suzhou. If you go to Western Shu and Northern Wei cities, you can earn one or two times. However, in the harvest year, the food in each city does not fluctuate much, and meat is common. Most players go hunting and sell it to merchants. , so the grain can make very little money and may even lose money, but it is different when Xiliang City sets up a business. All grain is sold to Xiliang City, and even meat is sold to Xiliang City every day. The price of a catty will be 1000 copper coins higher.

Therefore, the merchants in Xiliang City are very clear about the price of grain.

On the way back to the City Lord's Mansion, Tian Yinke suggested to Li Gu: "Why, Xiliang City doesn't open an auction house?"

"Auction house?" Li Gu was taken aback, and then said with a smile: "I want to have our blacksmith shop, cloth shop, and grain shop in the city. Most of our shops are mainly for purchases. I don’t even look at the things, not to mention that there are other merchants selling weapons and equipment that are much better than ours, so we can’t sell anything at the auction house.”

Tian Yinke nodded, Li Gu was right, there is an auction house in Baidi City, there is a mountain of treasures, and there is no need to worry about whether there is something to sell, but what do poor people in Xiliang City sell?

However, Tianyinke has a different idea: "There are a lot of vacant houses and land in the city. If we clear out a place to build an auction house, it won't take up too much space, right?"

"Of course it won't take up space, but you still have something to sell?" Li Gu glanced at Tian Yinke, but he didn't show any impatient expression. Li Gu knew that Tian Yinke's proposal was for the benefit of Xiliang City. .

"Actually, we don't have to worry about not having anything to sell."

"Oh?" Li Gu stopped suddenly and looked at Tian Yinke with a puzzled look, waiting for Tian Yinke to continue.

"When we build an auction house, we can act as a middleman and charge a few percent of the proceeds from selling items at the auction house. At that time, we only need to send soldiers and a steward." Tian Yinke also stopped.

Li Gu touched his nose with his thumb and index finger.

Everyone knows that once Li Gu thinks about a problem, he will do this action.

Tianyinke ignored Li Gu's thoughts, and continued, "Besides, our auction house doesn't frequently auction once every half a month, or once a month, isn't it all right? If..." Tianyinke showed a deep look smile.

Li Gu, who was thinking about things at first, also felt that there are soldiers and a steward who can be stationed at any time, and the address of the auction house is even more readily available. After being interrupted by Tian Yinke, Li Gu couldn't help trembling when he saw Tian Yinke's deep smile.

"If... we take out one or two more martial arts cheat books and put them up for auction, how much money do you think we can make?"

"There is also a city entry tax, and they will also need accommodation and meals at that time..." Li Gu interrupted Tian Yinke all at once.

Li Gu fully understands what Tian Yinke means. The auction house is just an introduction. The most important thing is to drive the flow of people, let more people come to Xiliang City, and promote the economic development of Xiliang City.

You can't go without eating and sleeping, right?
Moreover, Tianyinke knows that the prey near Xiliang City have been almost beaten by Xiliang City, Xiliang horse thieves, and foreign horse thieves, and the system refresh is not enough to kill the three forces, so the prey in Xiliang is getting more and more The less, of course you have the ability, if you are not afraid of death, you can go hunting in the Wild Wolf Mountains.

Therefore, it will take more than half a month to reach Xiliang City after entering the territory of Xiliang City. By then, the food on the player's body should be exhausted. If there is no food, they will have to buy it. Who will buy it from?Of course it is Xiliang City.

Xiliang City has stipulated early in the morning that merchants are not allowed to sell grain privately, and if they find out that their property has been confiscated, they will be killed on the spot.

Similarly, Xiliang City also has several batches of cooperative business groups. These business groups specialize in buying grain from various places and transporting it to Xiliang City to sell it to Xiliang.

Under such circumstances, if players don't go to Xiliang City to buy food, who else can they go to buy food from?

In addition, the price of the grain sold in Xiliang City is the purchase price. Now Xiliang City has set a heavy reward for building the city wall and attracted nearly [-] players. Their daily food consumption, Xiliang City is not enough now. (The players who built the city not only had wages but also food), so once their food is exhausted, they can only buy it from Xiliang City; but I am afraid that before the auction house is established, the price of food will rise, which will Another big gain.

Li Gu couldn't hide the joyful smile on his face at this time, and he couldn't wait to tell the Absolutely Boring Xiliang City Lord this good strategy with Tian Yinke.

Moreover, it is still early in the morning. The scholar covers his ears with two pillows, and can hear clearly when he is changing the quilt. It is so noisy.
