Text Chapter 13 Trade Summary

Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    Wang Shan's 'cooking class' went very smoothly. The housewives of the Mohican tribe became very interested in this new thing, and there was an endless stream of people coming to learn.

    And with the promotion of iron pots, Zhao Hongyu¡¯s rice and pickled mustards are very popular, and he earns many pieces of fur every day.

    Although it was winter and the Indians did not go out to hunt, that family had a lot of furs in storage.  These furs are used not only for tents, but also for making quilts and mattresses. Other than that, they have no other use.

    But now they can actually get iron pots and a new kind of food to improve their meals. There are still some people who are not willing to do so.

    ¡°It¡¯s useless to keep those furs in your hands anyway. It¡¯s better to exchange them for some axes, knives, or pickled vegetables.

    So, the Indians got benefits.  Zhao Hongyu, on the other hand, made a lot of money and was so happy that he couldn't close his mouth from ear to ear.

    Zhao Hongyu asked Zhang Tie and Song Hu to pretend to be wandering around the eastern seaside. When they came back, they told Artido in front of them that people from the tribe had found them.

    "The trade agreement reached between Zhao Hongyu and the Mohican tribe has been conveyed to those tribesmen.

    Within almost three days, news came back from Zhao Hongyu¡¯s ¡®tribe¡¯ that they recognized the trade agreement and had iron products, rice, mustard and other things shipped.

    In fact, Zhao Hongyu had discussed this with Zhang Tie and Song Hu in advance.

    They acted like this just to prevent the Mohicans from seeing anything strange.

    ¡°However, there are still many flaws in Zhao Hongyu¡¯s matter.  It¡¯s just that the Mohicans didn¡¯t think too much, and at the same time their attention was on trade.

    Otherwise, as long as someone thinks about it for a moment, they can see a lot of strange things.

    It has to be said that Zhao Hongyu is very lucky.

    Within the Mohican tribe, Zhao Hongyu set up a large tent, which was filled with products used to trade furs.  You can often see Indians wearing 1970s-style army coats bringing their furs to Zhao Hongyu in exchange for something.

    These Indians were wearing green military coats, khaki leather labor protection cotton boots, and iron machetes slung around their waists

    This kind of clothing, which has been reduced to labor protection equipment in the 21st century, is very popular among men in Mohawk.  Because of these clothes, they are no longer afraid of the cold.

    This thing is really warm!

    ?According to Zhao Hongyu, he just opened a ¡®small shop¡¯ within the Mohican tribe.

    Beaver skins, mink skins, bear skins, wolf skins, bison skins, badger skins, and even prairie dog skins were all used by the Mohicans in exchange for things. Zhao Hongyu also saw the purchasing power of the Mohicans.  and enthusiasm.

    Of course, those men basically change their axes and knives. Although they think it is good to eat white porridge or meat porridge and pickled vegetables in the morning, food is still more attractive to them than weapons.

    On the contrary, those ¡®housewives¡¯ are obviously more interested in rice, pots, cotton-padded clothes and boots than men.  Therefore, the products in Zhao Hongyu's hands are very popular among both men and women in the Mohican tribe.

    "Well, it would be great if we could develop some new products. At least it would be good to have cooking oil. Then we can teach them how to cook. Anyway, they have a lot of meat, and selling cooking oil makes the most money."

    Zhao Hongyu thought secretly in his heart.

    Wang Shan¡¯s cooking class has only been open for a short period of time, mainly because it teaches a single food such as porridge.

    In addition, making porridge is very easy, so the women of the Mohican tribe learned this skill in a short time.

    In about a week, all the women in the Mohican tribe, regardless of age, learned how to cook this new food.

    Finally, Wangshan¡¯s cooking class was temporarily closed.

    The reason why it is said to be temporarily closed is because if Zhao Hongyu develops new products in the future, this cooking class will continue to teach everyone.

    After all, the result of this is that the speed of promoting products will be accelerated, and everyone will accept it quickly.

    Today, every family in the Mohican tribe will be in low spirits throughout the day if they don¡¯t drink two mouthfuls of hot meat porridge or white porridge in the morning, and then eat some crunchy mustard.

    ??????????????????????????????????????????????¡­

    It¡¯s not that there is no salt in the Mohican tribe, it¡¯s just thatSalt tastes very astringent and bitter, and it cannot be compared with the salty taste of mustard.

    Therefore, for these people of the Mohican tribe, eating mustard is basically equivalent to eating salt.

    Zhao Hongyu himself did not expect that such a situation would occur.

    But overall, this is a good thing for him.

    Anyway, as long as he can make money, that's fine. As for other things, he can't control too much now.

    Among Zhao Hongyu¡¯s goods, iron pots are almost sold out.  After all, the population of the Mohican tribe is only more than 13,000, which means that if you sell two to three thousand iron pots, you won't be able to sell them anymore.

    Wooden tableware, iron axes, daggers, etc. are basically the same.

    After all, the population is so large.

    However, the sales volume of mustard tuber has been very stable, and people come to buy it every day.

    Zhao Hongyu once saw that some Mohicans would eat twenty or thirty packs of these small bags of Fuling mustard a day, which made Zhao Hongyu worried about whether this guy would be caught.

    (Note: ¡®ýJ¡¯ in Northeastern dialect has the word ¡®ýJ salt¡¯, which means excessive food intake.)

    Time flies in the blink of an eye, and another month has passed.

    At this time, it is already the end of January in the cold winter.

    Unconsciously, Zhao Hongyu has been in this era for more than half a year. Zhao Hongyu has been completely accustomed to the life without computers and entertainment in this era.

    Now, the wounds on his body have slowly healed. Apart from a dozen ugly scars left on his body, there are no sequelae.

    And the scar on his face added a bit of fierceness to his delicate face.

    During this month in the Mohican tribe, Zhao Hongyu was fair in transactions and enthusiastic, which made the entire Mohican tribe maintain goodwill toward him.

    In addition, he rescued the tribal leader Samara, and the leader's son Atido became a 'brother'. At the same time, the old wizard Paro also learned some healing skills from him, and became a 'penicillin and salt water doctor'  's agent.

    ¡°After these ¡®talkers¡¯ from the Mohican tribe all made friends with Zhao Hongyu, let alone the other Mohican people.

    Even the rebellious warriors headed by the ¡®Black Bear¡¯ from Mohawk showed respect to Zhao Hongyu.

    The reason is simple. Zhao Hongyu used promycin to treat Black Bear¡¯s daughter¡¯s calf ulcer and allowed her to survive.

    Therefore, Zhao Hongyu became a celebrity in the entire Mohican tribe.

    It can be said that with the existence of the Mohican tribe, Zhao Hongyu's development on the eastern coast can be said to have no security problems.

    That day, night fell, and heavy snow fell outside again.

    The north wind was howling, and people all returned to their tents to rest.

    Zhao Hongyu was also in his tent, summarizing the accounts with Wang Shan, Zhang Tie and Song Hu.

    "In this month, we sold a total of 2,813 iron pots, 5,378 iron axes, 3,642 daggers, 2,890 machetes, 624 sets of wooden tableware, 4,089 boxes of matches, 28 bottles of penicillin and salt water, and 1,255 labor protection cotton clothes.  sets, 2,897 green military coats, 765 pairs of leather protective cotton boots, 418 bottles of Red Star Erguotou, 300,000 jins of rice, pickled mustard"

    Wang Shan made a convincing summary of the goods they sold in the past month.

    Zhao Hongyu sighed while listening.

    In fact, Zhao Hongyu didn¡¯t have much capital. When he left the Andale tribe in the north, he only had 31,400 yuan in his virtual account.

    At the same time, he and Wang Shan and the three of them walked all the way, and all the food they ate on the way was bought by him with money from his virtual account.

    In addition, they had no way to trade with other Indian tribes on the road, so the money was used less and less.  During the two months on the road, Zhao Hongyu only had more than 7,000 yuan left in his account.

    But even this more than 7,000 yuan is completely enough for Zhao Hongyu.

    It was with the remaining more than 7,000 yuan that Zhao Hongyu made huge profits in this month.

    ? 1 iron ax can be exchanged for 30 beaver pelts or 15 mink pelts.

    (The price of the space-time trader is 45 yuan per piece)

    1 iron pot can be exchanged for 60 beaver pelts or 30 mink pelts.

    (The price of the space-time trader is 88 yuan a piece)

    1 iron dagger can be exchanged for 5 beaver pelts or 2 mink pelts.

    (The price of the space-time trader is 28 yuan)

      1 iron machete can be exchanged for 80 beaver pelts or 40 mink pelts.

    (The price of a space-time trader is 30 yuan)

    1 set of wooden tableware can be exchanged for 200 beaver pelts or 100 mink pelts

    (The price of the space-time trader is 388 yuan per set)

    ¡­Wang Shan chattered all these things and gave a report to Zhao Hongyu, which made him feel dizzy.

    ¡°There¡¯s no need to talk about these things, I know them all.¡±

    Zhao Hongyu waved his hand.

    "You can just give a total number." Zhao Hongyu also knows that it is troublesome to be too detailed. In fact, he only needs a total number to reconcile.

    As for the possibility of deviation, that is also normal.

    After all, sometimes there are many people coming to exchange for things, and it is inevitable that they will receive less furs or give more machetes and axes.

    When Wang Shan heard this, he immediately skipped those details and said: "Now we have collected a total of 124,538 beaver skins, 48,455 mink skins, 300 bear skins, 276,096 bison skins, wolf skins, badger skins, and marmot skins.  There is no calculation, but they are all stored in the warehouse of the time and space trader. After all, wolf skins, badger skins, and marmot skins cannot be sold for a good price."

    "Why are there so few?" He knew about wolf skins and so on, so he had no objection to storing them, and he agreed.

    But Zhao Hongyu was a little surprised by the amount of beaver skins.

    Because according to the quantity of goods he sells, he can exchange for at least twenty or thirty times the fur.

    Wang Shan smiled bitterly and said to Zhao Hongyu: "Chief, it stands to reason that our furs should double several times, but you have forgotten that you have a big promotion for a month."

    Well¡­¡­

    When Wang Shan said this, Zhao Hongyu really remembered it.
