Chapter 148: Huge profits from trade between the two worlds (43, thanks to the alliance leader Lailailailailevatin!)
Anjing's operation is actually very simple.
For traders from Chengdong City outside Kanming City, they have welcomed a 'little Kaizi' in recent days.
It's not appropriate to call him Kaizi, but in general, he is a big customer who spends money freely and basically doesn't bargain.
A Chenli boy who looked to be about thirteen or fourteen years old, well-dressed and a young master from an unknown family, was very interested in the many gadgets they sold for some reason. He raided every house along the street, basically. I bought all the products from all the merchants on this street.
He was generous in his dealings. Except for those merchants who were really aggressive and would shake their heads and haggle, at other times he basically bought the items directly at the asking price. The silver he used was also very solid. It was real silver with almost no impurities.
According to the young master Chenli who calls himself "Xuan", he just admires Dachen culture, so he can't help but want to buy the exquisite porcelain, interesting toys, elegant sachets and various calligraphy and painting classics from the Kingdom of Heaven. , and some rare items that could not be bought in Chenli were collected and sent back to Chenli’s hometown to enjoy slowly.
This reason is actually not a problem. Dachen is indeed the overlord who dominates Beixuanji Continent. Of course, all the surrounding small countries admire Wang Hua, at least they worship and respect Dachen's culture.
Even among the Northern Barbarian tribes that had an extremely tense relationship with Dachen, the tents of some large tribe chiefs were filled with Dachen's poems, calligraphy and paintings, beauty sachets and ancient porcelain decorations.
Of course, Dachen's most popular foreign trade products are actually many spiritual martial arts armors - but these are strictly controlled by Dachen, and only Dachen's allies can receive these military material assistance.
In short, there are quite a few such people. The only novelty is that the person making the big purchase this time is a young man of thirteen or fourteen years old.
Moreover, he didn't just buy those fancy gadgets, he also bought something more practical, but also more head-scratching.
For example, animal bones and skins.
For example... medicinal materials.
In fact, the medicinal materials are not bad, after all, Dachen's medicine store can indeed cultivate some special medicinal herbs that cannot be found in the Chenli Mountains.
But the animal bones and skins... weren't they sold to Dachen by the Chenli people?
What does he mean by buying it back?
"If you are stupid, you have too much money."
This was what some outspoken traders said, but as soon as he started speaking, he was immediately interrupted by the owner of the fur shop next door: "What nonsense are you talking about? Mr. Xuan is a handsome man with a kind heart. He bought both your products and mine." Yes...I reciprocated with a 30% discount, and the cost price definitely did not make Master Xuan suffer!"
“Screw you, you can get old goods that have been accumulated for several years, and you’ll make a lot of money with a 50% discount!”
"Ha, it's better than recommending second-hand calligraphy and painting!"
In just two days, An Jing threw out more than a hundred taels of silver, and gems outside the Great Wall (artificial gems from the Tianyuan world) worth dozens of taels of silver, adding up to nearly two hundred taels.
This is a large amount of money in Kanming City, because one tael of silver can buy six buckets of grain, and two hundred taels is more than one hundred and twenty stones of grain. If all this money is used to purchase grain, it will be enough for one person. A small tribe of about a hundred people can eat it for half a year or even longer, which can save their lives in disaster years.
And such a large amount of money was spent by An Jing on a lot of messy gadgets. It is really enviable... and heartbreaking!
But in fact, has An Jing lost?
Of course not!
Indeed, those calligraphy and paintings, those ceramic decorations, and those seemingly exquisite handicrafts that An Jing bought were of no use to him at all, and even if they were sent to the Tianyuan world, there would be no sales. However, the cost of stabilizing oneself is not high!
One hundred taels of silver plus artificial gems, the cost price is twenty-five good deeds - although gems are more cost-effective, they must be used with silver, otherwise Dachen people will not accept them, and they cannot use too much, only spiritual objects Gemstones have truly stable value.
In short, among the twenty-five good deeds, even if you buy thunder beads, you can only buy less than two, which is not as valuable as the three remaining ones that An Jing has now.
A simple calculation shows that even if An Jing only uses his good deeds to buy cheap silver from the Tianyuan world, and then uses the cheap silver to buy food from Dachen, he can still achieve a terrifying conversion rate of one hundred good deeds buying three hundred stones of food!
In the Tianyuan world, one good deed can only buy two kilograms of compressed meat cans. One hundred good deeds, including the group purchase discount, is two to three hundred kilograms of canned meat. Even if you include the advantages of water absorption, expansion, and portable storage, that is the most. That's two to three hundred kilograms of canned meat.
Even if the canned meat is well preserved and can last for twenty or thirty years, the difference can still be seen.
The price difference is probably about twenty or thirty times.
Not to mention, those things are all cover-ups.
Anjing's real purpose is those cheap 'animal bones and skins' and 'medicinal materials'!
"The quality of these animal skins is quite good. Although they are not ferocious beasts, they all have the blood of ferocious beasts and can be used as talisman materials. According to Huo Qing, ten complete ones can be worth twenty good deeds. Basically, Earned the cost price.”
"And animal bones are the key to some medicines, talismans, spiritual inks and elixirs. One pound of these 'Frost Wolf Bones' is equivalent to five good deeds, but I can buy two pounds with one tael of silver!"
"With two or three taels of silver, you can earn back the cost of one hundred taels of good deeds... What is this? Dozens of times the profit!"
Back at the inn, An Jing looked at the frost wolf bone in his hand, which was as cold as snow, and sighed with emotion: "The trade between the two worlds, and the difference in resource prices, is so terrifying!"
"Not to mention these medicinal materials!"
Huo Qing was from Danlin Town in Fuchenyuan, which was originally the herbal greenhouse area around Xuanye City, and he knew the purchase prices of various herbal medicines very well.
Among the vast purchase list of herbal medicines, there is one that is also available in Kanming City. It is a spiritual flower called 'You Baihua', which can be used to make the most commonly used 'Qingling Talisman'. The purchase price is One kilogram has thirty-eight good deeds.
In Huaixu, the price of this spiritual flower is one tael of flowers and three taels of silver.
Both sides are expensive.
But even so, if calculated based on the price of silver in the Tianyuan world, it is still nearly three times the profit.
It sounds like the income is much less than animal bones and skins, but An Jing values this medicinal material more.
Because animal bones and skins are actually on discount, if you follow the fresh price, you can earn about ten times... And the purchase of animal bones and skins is limited. With Anjing's channels in the Tianyuan world, eating this batch will be enough. It's the limit. No matter how much it is, Huo Qing won't be able to resell it.
No matter how much you make from a one-shot deal, it won't last long.
But Linghua Lingcao is different!
For the pharmaceutical companies in Danlin Town, there is no limit to the acquisition of these things. They always charge as much as they can. It is best to monopolize them, which is a long-term business.
