The Weapon Tycoon Who Traveled to Great Qin

"He changed with us." Chu businessman said happily. See here. He pulled over the new slaves he had bought in a hurry, in exchange for more slaves. He began to run frantically towards the ship behind.

"Quick, quick. Take everything on the boat. Move all down, hurry up." The merchant exclaimed happily. Those crew members still maintained a high degree of vigilance. What they thought should have happened did not happen. On the contrary, what they thought should not have happened. This businessman actually made the first sale here.

"Hurry up, hurry up," the businessman shouted again hastily. At this time, the crew reacted, so the first slave exchange business in the colonial era was completed.

It is indeed a clever way for merchants to exchange slaves for handicrafts and industrial products with developed civilization. First, he drove the entire production demand. Because this is so far and constantly to stimulate production demand, it can promote industrial development.

Secondly, on the basis of the entire industrial demand, they have developed a new market, and the demand of the entire market is not very large from the current point of view. But it is indeed a market, and the entire market needs to be viewed from the perspective of future development. The demand of an indigenous market is not great. But if there are more such markets. This demand is much greater.

The last point is that merchants avoided the simple single means of violence, such as the use of force. What military force brings is only a kind of brute force, and the Chu merchants use commercial methods to make this brute force flexible and degree. Merchants of Chu can get the slave demand they want. In fact, the Vietnamese and other indigenous peoples in the South often have wars between them. Such wars will inevitably lead to the existence of a large number of prisoners of war, which is a potential demand for provision.

On the other side, when Chu merchants could take the opportunity to return, they sold slaves to Qin. After getting the money, quickly buy some commercial supplies. Take the boat back to the indigenous people again, this way. A good business cycle is formed. This way down. The profit earned will be more than 200%. It can be said. This is a hugely profitable industry, and the huge shock brought about by this hugely profitable industry will bring new changes to future development.

The personal actions of the Chu merchants found a big market. However, the struggle between Chu and Qin on the Yangtze River has become very fierce.

"Block them. Don't let them come. Hurry up." A Chu State Navy soldier shouted loudly. The sailor was standing on the ship and shouting loudly.

"Get out, get out of us quickly." The Qin State Armed Merchant Fleet shouted out loud with a loud horn arrogantly.

"We are the ship of the State of Qin. Get out of the way." The armed merchant ship of the State of Qin yelled extremely arrogantly. The armoured merchant ship of the Qin State relied on the shell made of iron armor and equipped with sophisticated weapons. It not only attacked the water pirates extremely severely, but also began to disregard the Chu State navy.

The reason why Qin State Armed Merchant Ship did this. It is because they are dissatisfied with Chu's taxation. After getting close to the wharf of Chu State, under normal circumstances, the armed merchant ships of Qin State cannot approach the wharf of Chu State, because Chu State’s wharf waterline is generally very shallow, because they are all wooden hulls, but Qin State is The armored hull, this way. Qin's ships can only rely on small boats to transport their goods to land.

But in this way, Chu State has an opportunity to take advantage of. Qin's armed merchant ships were unable to provide effective protection for their small transport team, and at the same time, the local boats were unwilling to deal with Qin. Qin's armed merchant ships are in a very bad situation.

In addition, the deliberate embarrassment of local officials in the Chu State was on the issue of taxes. It is estimated that local officials of Chu State were the first to use local trade protectionism. They actively levied high taxes on the merchants of the State of Qin, whose names make them unwilling to do business in the State of Chu at all. On the contrary, the merchants of the State of Chu also levied taxes, but the high profits they obtained In comparison, they are quite relaxed. Such a comparison naturally aroused the dissatisfaction of Qin's businessmen.

But the Qin merchants are not the kind of people who can be slaughtered. They began to actively think of ways. The Qin people with a strong spirit of martial arts first thought of brute force, and they began to directly confront the Chu local government. They deliberately began to avoid the taxes imposed by the Chu local government, which is similar to today's smuggled imports.

They are actively looking for people like local land ruffians and let them organize small boats to complete transactions on the water. And those people like the land ruffians are still happy with this kind of harvest. The people of Qin people give money in order to let them help them sell goods, and at the same time, they can also sell money. The prices offered by Qin merchants were far lower than the prices that Chu merchants imported from Qin.

As a result, almost overnight, Qin's goods flooded the entire Chu local market, and this kind of shock was characteristic of dumping. Cheap and good quality. In order to make quick profits, the ruffians always get rid of the goods at low prices. Such an impact is very obvious.

That is, overnight, Qin's goods flooded the entire Chu local market.

"Look, this is Qin's water surface mirror. The things that are reflected are exactly the same, and it's not expensive, only three Chu coins." A man with the appearance of a scorpion whispered to a farmer who came and went.

"En. Good." The farmer also touched the mirror reluctantly.

"Three Chu coins are a bit expensive," said the farmer.

"It's not expensive, it's only three. Look over there, you need ten, not as big as this, so bright." The ruffian said.

"En." The farmer nodded, so he began to take out coins to exchange. At this time, Chu coins were far more expensive than Qin's half and two coins. The exchange ratio is between 1:2.3 and 1:2.5. Chu's economic strength lies here. In addition, Chu's economic independence is still relatively strong. The circulation of domestic currency is not very large. This also caused the Chu currency to be much easier to use locally than Qin's half. Although Qin's half and two coins are also circulated in some parts of Chu, compared with Chu as a whole, the amount of circulation is simply incomparable.

The transaction was quickly completed. The farmers were satisfied, and the ruffians got their own money. And what hurts the interests of those Chu merchants, this situation won't happen for long.

Soon Chu local government officials discovered that Qin was wrong, and they began to actively capture the smuggled ruffians.

"Stop." A head-catcher of the local government of Chu country appeared and discovered the land ruffian who had just completed the transaction. The whole process was caught in the eyes of the head-like figure. Now it's time to shoot.

"Stop." Hearing this sound, the ruffian ran away. After hearing this, the farmer was a little at a loss. The hunting heads ignored the farmers. Go directly to catch the ruffian.

"Wow." The goods in the bull's arms fell all over the floor. But the ruffians simply couldn't take care of these, they still ran away frantically. quickly. The head catcher can't chase it either. Because these ruffians don't even know where they are hiding, it is very difficult to catch them.

"Follow me." The catcher turned around and took the farmer away. The things on the ground were snatched away by Chu people who came and went early. In this way, one thing happened. Such things often happen in Chu State, as long as there are places where Qin State armed merchant ships, such things will continue to happen.

The umbrella of Chu merchants is Chu's local government officials, and the income of those officials is supported by the merchants' taxes. The businessmen of Qin State were bold enough not to pay taxes, and what was more serious was to openly use force against the tax officials of Chu State.

The local government officials of the Chu State naturally dislike them, and they naturally like the obedient Chu merchants. Not only the interests of Chu merchants were harmed, but at the same time, the interests of Chu officials were also lost.

In this way, Chu local government officials and Chu merchants began to fight against Qin's armed merchant ships. Just like this, the Chu State Navy also entered. The joining of Chu's navy made the problem more complicated.

The Chu State Navy was also in a situation of falling on both sides. Among the corrupted naval forces, naval soldiers were also involved in smuggling activities. This situation forced Xiang Yan to vigorously rectify Chu's navy. The new navy began to replace the old navy.

Qin's armed merchant ships were not afraid of Chu's navy at all by relying on their iron-clad ships. This naturally caused the dissatisfaction of Chu's navy. Especially the new navy. Thus. The contradiction between the two sides has intensified. Not only that, the participation of Chu local officials and Chu merchants' interests gave the Chu navy a legitimate reason to deal with the Qin armed merchant ships.

"You are passing through the waters of Chu State with your weapons. This is against the law of Chu State. Now, you have to stop the ship and undergo inspection." A lower-ranking officer of the Chu State Navy shouted loudly.

"Hmph. What a joke." A first officer of Qin State sneered.

"We carry weapons. We are originally armed merchant ships. There is no door to stop the ship." Qin Guo's first officer said loudly to his own people.

"Order, our people fire. Shoot. Give them a little bit of color to see." First Mate Qin ordered. The crew of Qin State actually agreed. They didn't think about the consequences at all.

"Tututu. Tututu." The Qin State armed merchant ship equipped with a large number of machine guns, using the machine guns to start frantically blasting to noisily check the Chu State navy ships of the Qin State armed merchant ships, the Chu State navy ships are still wooden, not only It is wood, mostly small boats. Such a ship is simply powerless to resist.

"Oh." A Chu State navy soldier let out a scream. He was shot.

"Ah." Then came the junior officer. He was shot in the arm. The blood kept pouring out.

"Bump into it." At this time, the first officer directly issued such an amazing order. However, the sailors of Qin State rushed directly in the boat.
