Chapter 158: Transaction Negotiation

"Hello, distinguished guests, I'm the mayor of the Hope Territory, Senmu." The

old village chief led two subordinates to stand in front of the township center, and greeted the people from the Harmony Firm in the Fuqiang Territory with a warm face.

"Mayor Sen, hello."

Yu Qinghe and Lin Wenxuan, as representatives of the caravan, also greeted the old village chief.

The three parties had a brief friendly meeting, and then the old village chief led them upstairs to the reception room, waiting for the lord to come to meet the guests.

"Please come with me, my guests. I'll take you to see the lord."

The only people who really entered the reception room were Yu Qinghe and Dahui from the Fuqiang Territory, Lin Wenxuan and Xiao Jin from the Harmony Territory, and the others were left in a large room. In the reception room, the two assistants left by the old village chief helped entertain them.

After all, this is a meeting of leaders of a certain level, and ordinary people are not eligible to participate.

Gu Mi came quickly.

Just as Yu Qinghe and others took their seats in the reception room, she came in.

"Long time no see..." His eyes swept across the audience, Gu Mi called out the names of these people one by one: "Yu Junshi, Dahui, Vice President Xiao, Manager Lin."

"Lord Gu, long time no see, you can be well. ?"

Xiao Jin didn't panic, he raised his hands calmly, took off the helmet on his head that almost covered his entire face, and smiled at Gu Mi.

"I'm fine. It seems that Vice President Xiao has been resting well recently." Even the dark circles under his eyes have faded a lot.

"Thanks to you."

It was indeed Gu Mi's blessing. If he didn't have a good excuse to come to the Hope Territory to personally inspect it, how could he have any reason to leave all the work to the big brother, and then run away on his own?

I don't need to be busy with work, I don't have to worry about business affairs every day, and I can come out for half-inspection and half-play to relax. When my mood is good, the quality of sleep this night will improve linearly. If you sleep well, your mental state will also improve.

Completely virtuous circle.

It's a pity that there is only one chance. After I go back, I still have to live the hard life of 007, alas.

Gu Mi, who had no idea that Xiao Jin had so many miscellaneous thoughts all at once, after reminiscing a few words with him, he also chatted a few words with the others, slightly smoothing out the strange feeling that they had not seen each other for several months. .

When it feels like the foreshadowing is almost the same, everyone will cut to the point with a tacit understanding.

What's the point?

That is naturally a matter of several parties trading with each other.

Today's rich and powerful territories are no longer short of water, but they are still short of food, daily necessities, and clothes that can keep warm.

The lowest temperature in the desert can reach dozens of degrees below zero, which is the level that can freeze people to death. If they don't have enough cold clothes, they will have a hard time facing the coming winter.

Their local linen can only cover shame and wind and sand, but it does not have the effect of keeping out the cold. The beasts in the desert are basically scales, and those animal skins can be used to make clothes, but they can't keep out the cold.

The best warm clothes are furs of long-haired animals, cashmere cloth, woolen knitted products and so on.

It just so happens that these hopeful territories are all there, and there are still a lot of them in stock.

Since the breeding industry in the territory has been on the right track, and the research institute has created a textile machine, the cashmere cloth, woolen cloth, wool and other items in their territory have never been lacking, and the price is not high.

There are even duvets and down pillows.

It's just that the down jacket has not yet been realized, and there is no material that can seal the duck down and goose down.

Even made into a quilt pillow, it is often easy to run down, and occasionally feathers fall out of it.

It's just barely usable.

But the warmth is really warm, but now it is still from mid-August to the end of August.

The reason why there is production in the hope territory is also specially ordered by Gu Mi.

She didn't specifically plan to use it for trading, but she was worried about the cold winter and another big cold wave, so she just made the people prepare in advance.

Anyway, it's just to prepare an extra quilt for the family, and it's not a big deal.

As soon as Yu Qinghe learned that Hope Territory had actually made duvets, he immediately asked for 10,000 duvets.

Gu Mi twitched the corners of his mouth: "10,000 sheets is impossible, we don't have that much stock in our entire territory."

And how much down does it take to make 10,000 duvets?

Even if the ducks and geese in their entire territory, including the chickens, were bald, they wouldn't be able to do it.

"Five hundred at most, if there is more, there will be nothing."

"Five hundred is too little. You must have two thousand."

"No, just five hundred." Due to the needs of their own territory, they are not willing to give too much goods.

"One thousand five." As soon as the words came out, seeing that Gu Mi still looked like she was not getting in the oil and salt, Yu Qinghe was helpless, so he had to change his words again: "One thousand, and we will buy it from you at 20% of the market price. "

It's fine at the normal market price, but you have to pay with energy gems."

"There aren't many energy gems in our territory." Yu Qinghe replied conditionedly.

But if it's true or false, only he knows.

In the end, after a short period of see-saw negotiation, it was finally determined that the Hope Territory would supply the caravans in the Prosperous Territory with 1,000 down quilts, 5,000 cashmere quilts, and a large amount of food, pots and pans and other daily necessities.

The total price is 50 energy gems and 5 million copper coins.

This price is calculated by paying some energy gems and paying some copper coins.

Because Yu Qinghe was only willing to take out 50 energy gems to make a deal, Gu Mi would not let him go no matter how much he negotiated with him. There was no choice but to nod in agreement.

That is because most of the things bought in the rich and powerful territories are large quantities of cheap goods, and it is not easy to raise prices, and if they want, they can also buy them in other territories, and hope that the territory is not their only choice. But I hope that the large amount of precious minerals and energy gems that the territory needs can only be purchased from the rich and powerful territory. If you go to buy elsewhere, let's not mention whether you can buy such a large amount at one time. Just finding a safe and reliable seller is a hassle. That's why Gu Mi seemed a little passive. But in the end, I still hope that the territory will have great favors in the rich and strong territory, so Yu Qinghe is actually not so ruthless. All the goods were bought at a fair price, and they even offered profits. Except that he really couldn't give out too many energy gems, the other parties were very satisfied with the negotiation. After determining the goods needed by the rich and powerful territory, it is the turn of the hope territory. Gu Mi opened her mouth and reported the number: "Our territory needs 10,000 tons of copper ore, 10,000 tons of purple gold ore, 10,000 tons of mithril ore..." Good guy, she really dared to open her mouth. Dahui next to him was numb. Where did they come from so many mines? Even if they did, they didn't bring so much out of this trip. Yu Qinghe, the main force in the negotiation of rich and powerful territories, was very calm. In business, isn't it all about asking prices and paying them back?

If you haven't experienced this mutual price reduction, who has the bottom line until the other side?

Therefore, after the other party finished reporting everything, he simply spread his hands: "I'm sorry, we don't have any of the minerals you mentioned..."

"Bring so many."

This panting, not to mention Gu Mi, the next to you Xiao Jin felt that this person was very annoying.

However, in the face of this situation, Gu Mi appeared very calm. She leaned back, took a sip of the tea brought by the new secretary, and said, "Then how many goods did you bring in total?"

Yu Qinghe watched Dahui glanced.

Dahui understood, took out a piece of animal skin paper from himself, and handed it to Gu Mi: "This is the list of goods we carry, Lord Gu, please take a look."

Seeing the 'paper' used for recording in their territory, Yu Qinghe Suddenly remembering something, he asked: "Lord Gu, your territory has paper production, right?"

The paper he was talking about not only meant writing paper, but also toilet paper and the like.

"Obvious." Gu Mi nodded.

There is also an art paper tube carved from mahogany on the table of this reception room, and it is filled with a stack of wood-colored tissue papers for anyone to use.

Papermaking technology is not difficult.

And they also have such a large piece of papermaking raw materials, and it is only a matter of minutes to realize the freedom of paper use.

For this reason, Gu Mi also specially instructed the dwarves to build a paper factory in the industrial area for the production of paper. Unfortunately, the factory was judged by the system to have failed the detection and could not be counted in the territorial buildings.

Gu Mi also didn't quite understand the system's criteria for determining whether a self-built building could become a territorial building. He didn't even have a reference direction for the assessment, and there was no way to build it according to the standard. .

Anyway, the fields reclaimed by the territorial residents, the houses built by themselves, and the bridges across the river are all not included in the territorial buildings that can be upgraded, but they are not delayed in use either.

Compared with whether the various buildings in the territory can be upgraded, Gu Mi actually pays more attention to practicality, so as long as the building is easy to use and is currently required by the territory, Gu Mi will not care too much about whether it can be upgraded.

However, if she can get a "paper mill" in the future, she may consider replacing the current one, or it would be good to have two paper mills in the territory.

After all, the population of the territory has increased, and the demand for paper has naturally increased.

There is simply a logging farm, and the daily output of wood is completely unscientific and out of thin air. They can use this wood to make paper, and they don't need to worry about damaging the environment.

"We also want to add another batch of paper orders. Both writing paper and toilet paper need a lot of stock. Please quote a price."

Gu Mi checked the list for a while, then turned to the secretary beside him: " Go and call Zhang Rong over."

At first, he didn't expect that Fuqiang Territory would buy paper, so Gu Mi didn't know the price of these papers in the territory, so he could only call someone who knew about it.

Zhang Rong originally worked in the high-rise office on the third floor.

Therefore, as soon as I received the notice from the lord, I came over immediately. The journey took less than two minutes, and the people in the rich and powerful territories were not kept waiting for a long time.

As soon as she came here, she lived up to Mi's expectations. After learning about the situation, she immediately took a professional attitude and negotiated with Yu Qinghe. In the end, she not only negotiated a paper business, but also brought them together. The monthly hygiene products business for women produced in the territory has also been negotiated.

It is worth mentioning that when talking about this business, the faces of the four men present were different red, and the degree of redness depends on their skin color.

Gu Mi was stunned and looked sideways.

Are these people so innocent?

However, this kind of thing is what every woman needs. Not only those in the rich and powerful territories have to buy it for the vast number of female compatriots in their own territory, but even the Harmony Firm on the side has expressed interest in it.

Don't get me wrong, they just saw a business opportunity.

Feminine hygiene products in this world are actually somewhat backward and unhygienic, and they are not convenient to use.

The hygiene products produced in the Hope Territory were made by a survivor sister herself.

She found a kind of plant with soft and thin leaves, selected leaves of suitable size, used it as an outer pocket after repeated high-temperature sterilization with boiling water, and then filled the inside with cashmere that has also been sterilized and air-dried to absorb water. Layer, and finally seal a layer of cotton cloth as the inner layer, sew the edges finely and tie a few straps for fixing, such a sanitary product is ready.

This method is actually not very qualified, but at least it is relatively comfortable to use, and it will not leak. Moreover, it is a one-time product, and it is thrown away after use, and it is relatively hygienic.

With today's material conditions, it is already the limit to be able to do this.

It's better than using a cloth that leaks after stacking several layers. It can even be washed and used again and again, and it will look bloated and inconvenient to move around.
