Chapter 293 No martial ethics
On the opposite side, the team from Qiguo was also amazed. They didn't care about causing Bai Dashan's displeasure and passed pens and papers around in the team.
Everyone looked at the pen, I touched the paper, and expressions of surprise and shock appeared one after another on our faces.
“This paper feels really good.”
"This pen doesn't need to be ground with ink separately. Could it be that the ink is ground in advance and put in the pen holder?"
Bai Dashan and the others looked at them with surprise, their lips curled up, and they felt proud.
Of course it’s amazing, this is an oil-based pen, made by our aunt.
Is Jin State’s craftsmanship already so advanced?
Their two countries bordered Dongzhou, but they didn't receive any news at all.
How could they know? The reason they didn't know was that Taohua Village restricted the circulation of these papers and pens between the two countries.
However, despite the restrictions, where there is profit, there will be merchants taking risks. The people of the two countries have already had some pens and papers flowing out of Taohua Village, but the quantity was small and no one paid special attention to it so they were not discovered.
The people of Liang State thought about it and said, "Sure, sure."
Originally, Bai Xiaoshan waved his hand, and the people of Qi State looked dejected before they finished their fight. But when they thought about the reversal, they were immediately delighted.
"The amount of salt and tea they have is too low. You can only agree to half of it."
In fact, Bai Tao asked Bai Xiaoshan to take charge, not because she wanted me to handle it with full authority.
But Bai Xiaoshan felt that he had to let the people of Liang and Qi know that when they came there, they had to follow the rules of Taohua Village.
Bai Xiaoshan but the undercurrents between Guan Liangguo and Qiguo were surging. I looked at us and said, "Cotton, both sides are asking for a large amount, and you can only give 10% of it."
That group of dirty people from the two countries actually purchased a lot of salt and tea.
When Bai Xiaoshan looked at it, the people of Qi State felt relieved. We also knew that the numbers listed were feasible.
The people of Qiguo were also willing to step forward: "See what is possible and what is not possible, and you can accept it."
10%?
On the Qi State side, the envoy responded to Liang State with a disdainful and sarcastic look, and also called on the people in his team to start discussing in a low voice.
Bai Xiaoshan: "Yes, they may not have heard it clearly just now. Please say it again."
“Weapons and equipment are for sale.”
"People also need many tools..."
After arriving here, we also inquired about the prices of goods in the Baijiabao caravan, but of course we had no idea.
At that time, it was an opportunity to add insult to injury.
After about two cups of tea, the two countries handed the papers in their hands to Bai Xiaoshan.
Although we want to, we dare not do so.
The envoy from Liang was also angry that he had taken such a big step.
Liang Guo immediately spoke up: "Master Bai has said it, but no one has paid any attention to it. It's simply because they don't take Master Bai's words seriously."
It's okay if it's not 80% bad.
Just when the people of Qiguo were about to show their surprise, I continued, "You will present it to your aunt later."
What, salt and tea?
But we didn't say anything, we just nodded and said, "Please trouble Shopkeeper Bai, thank you for your hard work, Master Bai."
When the people of Liang State heard this, they were also surprised that they didn't have that yet.
Taohua Village also didn't tell us the specific number and just let us discuss it ourselves, which gave people from both countries a headache.
This is also very wrong.
The Qi envoy's face immediately turned pale. I first cursed at Liang: "He is talking nonsense. Do you Qi people have any idea?"
So, both sides listed and painted again and again.
Weapons and equipment can be purchased, but it is better to buy less food and fodder.
The distress on the face of the people of Qiguo was just stuck under their faces.
what?
Although I had no idea how many things I needed to purchase before coming here, has something unexpected happened now?
The envoy of Qi State glared at the people on his side: What are their brains for? Some people actually thought of those things.
Therefore, the Liang team first snorted at the Qi envoy team opposite them, suppressed their curiosity about paper and pen, and cautiously gathered in a circle to start talking.
As soon as I finished speaking, the people from Liang State stared at Qi State with disbelief. Was that smuggling something private?
You have to know that it is pig iron. No matter which country it is in, it is controlled by the court and is strictly prohibited from being touched.
Just when the people of Liang were thinking about whether they could or could not ask to buy some pig iron, Bai Xiaoshan glanced at our purchase list.
"Let them wait a moment."
"No, no, no, thank you very much, Shopkeeper Bai."
Is it still in the preliminary review?!
If we say there is too little, Taohua Village will give it to us. If we say there is too much, the enemy will buy too little. Our country will have enough food and grass for the war.
Who knows how long the war will last? The consumption of food and fodder is so small, so it is better to have less than more.
Bai Xiaoshan stood up and said, "Then you should submit it to your aunt for approval."
The main goal is to make things look more complicated, troublesome and worse to the locals.
After the two teams were surprised and amazed, Bai Dashan cleared his throat and said, "Then you can discuss the number among yourselves."
Who would have known that there would be a crazy search for someone in Baijiabao a while ago.
At that moment, the people of Qi State were dumbfounded.
That's why we had to think twice and be more polite when talking to Bai Tao just now.
It was clearly our side that finished first, but the people on the other side had the nerve to cut in line and hand in their papers.
half?
They were all afraid that Bai Tao would be unhappy if she was provoked by someone big. Being agreed to cooperate was important, but being targeted by the Baiyu Army was only a minor trouble.
Although there was a difference in time, the people from Qi State were half a body slower and handed it to Bai Xiaoshan first.
Bai Xiaoshan waved his hand, interrupting the Qi Kingdom envoy and said, "Pig iron is indeed a war material, so you can only give them one eighth of the amount they asked for, or 85 percent."
The people from Liang State suppressed their mouths and nodded repeatedly: "No, no, thank you very much, Manager Bai."
The people of Qiguo quickly looked at Bai Xiaoshan and explained, "You can't explain the matter of purchasing pig iron."
Bai Xiaoshan glanced up and said, "No."
Half of it is not good either. You know, we have been determined several times. The number of classes we have filled is more than that. We cannot say that we have calculated all the money we can pay.
The envoy from Liang was so angry that he almost threw the teacup at the envoy from Qi's face.
Being able to purchase 85% of the goods was not a surprise to Gary.
If Taohua Village could be made happy with Qiguo, reduce their numbers, or even cooperate with him, that would be the worst possible outcome.
After a pause, I continued, "It's winter now, the price of cotton is high, they are definitely bad."
We immediately regretted it and wondered why we had thought of it.
The people from Liang and Qi countries nodded quickly, "Thank you for troubling Manager Bai."
Therefore, Bai Tao's status in Taohua Village is unquestionable.
The opportunity is right at hand, so if you seize it, God will forgive you.
"There must be something wrong with this line."
