Chapter 22 The Sea Clan (Part 2)

Chapter 22: The Sea Clan (Part 2)

As night falls, the crowds on the pier gradually dissipate, and the fragrance of something that seems to be there or not is lingering in the air. The evening breeze also makes fun, and passes through the streets and alleys of the city with a smile, bringing a slight chill. The clear moon hangs in the sky, and the lights reflect the starry lights, making the night in Quanzhou Prefecture appear quiet and peaceful.

In this peace, a black figure suddenly appeared in front of the guards of the sea ship next to the "Dream"...

In the afternoon, Wang Dafu was "shocked" by Uncle Mu's words, and was so surprised that he couldn't do anything to himself. Suddenly, a flash of inspiration flashed in his mind and asked casually: "Uncle Mu, you shouldn't be an ordinary person, right? You are so familiar with Boss Shen, are you..."

In fact, Wang Dafu just asked casually. In the previous conversation, he felt that Uncle Mu had an unusual respect for the five major consortiums that now control Quanzhou Prefecture, Chen Wansan, the former tycoon of Quanzhou Prefecture, so he just gave a try.

After all, this time when I came to Quanzhou Prefecture, Wang Dafu suffered a small loss because the five major consortiums cut off the firewood. But he was also dumb and could not say anything about the pain. Such behavior was enough to make Wang Dafu regard him as an enemy he must deal with. Based on the principle of "the enemy's enemy is a friend", Wang Dafu must explore the foundation of Uncle Mu and see if he has any value.

However, Uncle Mu's next words really surprised Wang Dafu and almost fell down again!

"Haha~~I didn't expect that the little brother would have such eyesight..." Uncle Mu sighed helplessly, and then said proudly: "Haha~~ I'm really sure that you are the chief magistrate who was responsible for purchasing and trading for Mr. Shen back then!"

"Master? The chief comprador of Mr. Chen Wansan Shen?" Wang Dafu was obviously shocked and got up.

"Hehe" Uncle Mu smiled proudly, then looked at Wang Dafu carefully again, and then said casually: "Brother, you are so concerned and so sensitive to these things... Haha~~ I think you are not a simple person, right?"

When Wang Dafu heard this, he suddenly grew up, gently brushed his clothes, and said with a smile: "It's windy here, and it's getting late now. Why don't you go to the boat with me to come on the fort, taste some side dishes, and have a closer chat. You can also let the young student have some good advice and learn more."

After saying that, before Uncle Mu answered, he turned around and pulled him to the "Dream Number", completely ignoring Uncle Mu's sudden expression of panic...

Seeing the black figure suddenly appearing in front of me, the big crab, which was already big as a guard, actually widened even wider in an instant. Just as I was about to ask, I spoke to the figure on the other side.

"Don't panic, this Crab General. I have no malice. I just want to meet the top and talk to him about business. I am the lord of the Green Willow City of Tangfeng Empire. This is my famous post and price list. Please pass it on to General Crab." The person who came here was Wang Dafu who had been wandering around for a day.

The other party's voice was originally elegant and pleasant. He called his little guard "Crab General" as soon as he opened his mouth, which made the big crab feel immediately. He nodded gently and said in harmony: "Haha, since this human brother is talking about business with my prime minister, then the prime minister must be willing to see you. Anyway, he came here to do business this time, but he would like to ask brothers to wait a little and take me in and report it." After that, he turned around and walked in with the famous post and price list. Wang Dafu behind him was bitter and said, as if he had been stuffed with coptis chinensis.

Speaking of which, the Hai people are indeed relatively simple, without any of the winding paths of humans, Wang Dafu just shouted "General" twice. He smiled and completely forgot his responsibilities, and was not worried about going in and reporting, what if this human took the opportunity to sneak onto the boat.

However, Wang Dafu didn't plan to make any changes at all. This time he came to the sea clan to do business. But to be honest, he was really depressed at this moment. To be honest, when he spoke up, he had been thinking about it for a long time and ruled out several terms such as "big brother" and "brother" and "brother" and so on. Finally, he chose the title "Crab General" as "No one likes to be called "brother" by a big crab. What did he become?

Who knew he was useless. He was not polite, and he shouted "brother" so intimately, which made Wang Dafu shout in his heart: "What am I doing?"

After a while, the crab general came out and said in a harmonious voice: "Brother, my prime minister is welcome." Wang Dafu nodded relaxedly when he heard this, and walked in with the big crab.

The big crab did not take him into the cabin under the deck, but came to the door of a cabin on the deck. Wang Dafu opened the door and walked in, but found that the place waiting for him in the cabin was not another larger crab, but an old turtle.

The old turtle was wearing clothes made of silk, looking old and even a little old. However, the glimmer of light popped out of its eyes made Wang Dafu feel terrified.

When Wang Dafu was observing the other party, the other party was also carefully looking at Wang Dafu's every move. He had to admit that Wang Dafu, a fat man, has always been good in such occasions. His calm temperament and calm expression often attract high praise from the other party.

"The Lord of the Green Willow City of Tang Feng Empire, I have met the Prime Minister~~" Although I can't figure out what kind of prime minister this old turtle is, I don't blame him for his kindness, and Wang Dafu's attitude is still very respectful.

"Haha, what prime minister is not prime minister? The customs of our sea tribe and you humans are somewhat different. This position of prime minister is probably equivalent to an elder in a village. You don't need to be polite~~" The old turtle spoke in a dull voice, his old voice seemed a little hoarse, but its words made Wang Dafu relax a little. To be honest, if the prime minister in front of him was really the prime minister of a country, then the negotiations between Wang Dafu would be much more difficult.

Before Wang Dafu could speak, the old turtle suddenly continued to speak. Looking at Wang Dafu, he asked in confusion: "Young man, do you think you are willing to trade with us at the price of five bags of grain in a Nanzhu?"

That's right... "One Nanzhu" is exchanged for "five bags of grain"! This is exactly what Wang Dafu has offered land prices to the sea tribes! This is not Wang Dafu's crazy, but in fact Wang Dafu is very normal.

Wang Dafu is not a young man who just debuted. He believes whatever others say! "One truck of Nanzhu" exchanges "five trucks of grain"? "One truck of Nanzhu" exchanges "two trucks of grain"? What Uncle Mu said in the afternoon made Wang Dafu almost laugh out loud. You should know that even in the entire Chinese history, whether there is a "big truck" produced in Nanzhu is still a problem. As a merchant master as famous as Tao Zhu Baigui, the five major consortiums can provoke Chen Wansan and Zheng Zhilong's struggle. Will such a person offer such an outrageous price? Could it be that their heads are flooded?

You should know that the sea clan is not the "stupid" clan. They may be relatively simple and do not know how to do business, but it does not mean that they are idiots. As a smart creature of the same level as humans, are they really countless in their hearts? If Chen Wansan or the five major consortiums really offer them such an outrageous price, it is afraid that in half a day, the business will be taken over by other competitors who are eyeing them. With one-time transaction and long-term flow, who should be chosen?

With a light cough, Wang Dafu said with a smile: "Prime Minister, although I don't know the specific transaction prices of you and those merchant groups in Quanzhou Prefecture,... I personally think that such a price is fair and reasonable."

"Haha~~Fair and reasonable?" The old turtle raised his eyelids and glanced at Wang Dafu. He said slowly: "Young man, as far as I know, a Nanzhu can easily exchange several trucks of food in your human world, right?"

"Sure enough, this damn old thing is very clear about the price of the commodity! One truck of Nanzhu exchanges two trucks of grain... Fortunately, I didn't believe you nonsense, otherwise I would really make the New Year's mistake!" Wang Dafu cursed viciously in his heart, then chuckled calmly, and replied freely, "Haha~~ Prime Minister, but I don't know how many fresh fish can a Nanzhu be exchanged for in your sea tribe world?"

Fresh fish is the main food ration for the sea people, which is equivalent to the existence of food among humans.

Wang Dafu's answer obviously satisfied the old turtle. With his eyelids drooping, the old turtle said slowly: "Haha~~Young man. Your wisdom makes me appreciate it... As you said, Nanzhu is worthless to us sea clans. It is just a kind of excrement from the clam clans. If most of your land races like it, we might have been treated like sand."

The meaning of Wang Dafu's words just now is that it has nothing to do with whether Nanzhu is worth or not, it has nothing to do with your sea clans. It is all our own business. As long as you get the value you think is reasonable, it is enough. There will definitely be all-round differences between different races. There is no need to force the other party to accept their own values. Understanding each other as much as possible on the basis of maintaining differences and seeking common ground is the way to coexist!

Both sides are smart people, so naturally I know that this passage is not so much about Wang Dafu talking to the old turtle about price. It is better to say that he is explaining his views on racial issues to the old turtle... The reputation of Green Willow City "the first player city" is well known throughout the world. As soon as Wang Dafu signed up for the old turtle, he naturally knew that it was the Lord of Green Willow City who arrived.

"But young people, what are the benefits of doing this for you? Although grain is not valuable on land, it is too luxurious to exchange five bags of grain for a Nanzhu, right?" When he said this, a glimmer suddenly flashed in the old turtle's eyes, and it felt like an elder was teaching his junior a lesson.

However, Wang Dafu was not so stupid that he really thought that he was caring for himself. He understood very well in his heart that the key to the old turtle's sentence was in the first half of the sentence "What are the benefits for you to do this?"

Today, Wang Dafu can pull the sea clan from Quanzhou Prefecture to Luliu City through the price of "five bags of grain", and tomorrow someone can pull the sea clan from Luliu City through the price of "ten bags of grain"! Anyway, grain is definitely a valuable thing on land, and anyone can afford the price. That is, "one truck of grain for one grain of Nanzhu" is a big profit. After fighting like this, the humans will be unlucky in the end, which will only make the sea clan "fisherman benefit."

And as long as Wang Dafu opened this opening today, someone would follow up soon. There is no doubt that in the end, as the initiator of Green Willow City, it would be difficult to gain advantage from it. Wang Dafu could not understand this truth!

The old turtle is also worried about why the human race in front of us does such a thing with obvious low IQ. It is impossible for them to be hit by the pie, right? Integrity is very important for businessmen. They have been working with Quanzhou Prefecture for so long. The old turtle will never change their partner because of a little bit of flies. If their sea race easily betrays Quanzhou Prefecture, then they might be packaged and sold by the young man in front of them tomorrow!

"Haha~~ Prime Minister, I, Green Liu City, have recently built a new dock in the entire Eastern Continent, which is suitable for you sea tribes to show your strength~~" Speaking of this, Wang Dafu paused slightly, and then threw out a big bomb slowly: "Recently, Green Liu City has made new breakthroughs in some material research and developed a metal material that is difficult to rust..."

Hearing this, the old turtle suddenly opened his eyes and asked in a daze: "Are you serious about this?"

Wang Dafu stood there, and Yun Danfeng laughed lightly: "Is it true or not? Prime Minister, don't you know if you go to Luliu City to see it?"

The old turtle also realized his disobedience at this time. His eyes fell slightly and said in a low voice: "Okay, young brother, your sincerity has touched me. Although we don't think the price these young men in Quanzhou Prefecture gave us is inappropriate, but... I believe that no one in this world will refuse to earn more reasonable benefits~~"

As the old turtle said, the temptation of high food prices is just a low-level method that has no technical content and cannot be used on the table. Wang Dafu can reduce prices and others can also reduce prices. The reason why Wang Dafu is willing to risk the world's worst is that he has another killer weapon, the metal tool that the sea clan needs most, can greatly resist seawater corrosion... This is an enchanting material recently discovered by the skeleton alchemist.
