    After Wang Qi left Nanyang, he did not waste time and went all the way back to Linzi.  After returning to Linzi, Wang Qi first summoned Zhuge Feng and told Zhuge Feng about establishing a hospital in the army and providing military doctors.  Once Shen Jianchuan arrived, Zhuge Feng was responsible for making arrangements.

    With things arranged properly, Wang Qi was temporarily free.

    After all, there is still a certain amount of time before the war with Yangzhou begins.

    In the blink of an eye, it¡¯s mid-November, and the weather is getting colder. The autumn wind is bleak, adding a hint of chill.  On this day, when Wang Qi was handling government affairs at his residence, a chamberlain came in and reported: "Your Highness, a barbarian named Hardemon has come outside the palace. He claims to be from the Hercynian Empire and wants to see His Highness."

    "Xuan!"

    Wang Qi gave an order.

    Wang Qi was very surprised that Hardemon came.  You must know that it has been more than a year and almost two years since Hadmon left Nanyang County.  Unexpectedly, he would come back now.  The chamberlain went to convey the order, but not long after, Hardemon entered.

    When Hardemon saw Wang Qi, he immediately looked shocked and praised: "Oh, God, Your Highness King Qi, you are really amazing. In just two years or so, you have become the King of Qi from the county magistrate.  Becoming the master of one side is truly amazing. My God, you are the most powerful person I have ever seen, wise and mighty."

    Hardemon was indeed shocked.

    In the past, Wang Qi was just the magistrate of Nanyang County, but now he is the overlord.

    The promotion speed is too fast.

    Fortunately, he has a relationship with Wang Qi and has interests.

    The stronger Wang Qi is, the better he is.

    Wang Qi smiled and said: "Hardmon, this is just a coincidence, and it is not worth mentioning that I have everything now. Tell me, what did you get from going to a distant place this time? As long as it is valuable  I buy all the items at high prices. If they have no value, you can't blame me. If you want to do business in Qi State, or even buy silk, cloth and tea on a large scale, and then transfer them to other places for sale, you need to provide valuable materials."

    Hardmon said confidently: "King Qi, don't worry, the gifts I have prepared are guaranteed to be excellent. When I return this time, a total of eight large ships will come back. The supplies brought back are quite impressive."

    Wang Qidao: "Tell me what's there?"

    Hardmon immediately said: "The supplies I brought back this time are mainly peanuts and peppers. After all, we already have sweet potatoes, corns and potatoes, so peanuts and peppers are more useful."

    "There are two types of specific chili peppers. One type is sharp and small, and has an extremely spicy taste. The other type of chili pepper is larger, not very spicy, but can be eaten in large quantities and tastes good."

    "In addition, I also brought back some spices for use."

    "The most important batch of supplies is that I brought a large number of slaves, three thousand slaves. Your Highness, King Qi, you need these slaves. I can guarantee that every slave is excellent, tall and strong.  , extremely useful. These slaves can dig mines and build roads, and can be used in all aspects. They are beneficial without any harm, and are extremely useful."

    ¡°The most valuable items in Hardmon¡¯s batch are actually slaves.

    This can be used in mining, road construction, etc.

    Wang Qi suddenly laughed.

    Chili peppers and peanuts are both excellent materials, especially chili peppers are extremely useful.

    For Wang Qi, this is indispensable.  With peppers, the taste of food becomes colorful and life becomes colorful.  Of course, slaves are also very important.

    The existence of slaves can indeed make things easier for Xia State in many aspects.

    Wang Qi asked: "Hardmon, your slave, as well as the two supplies of peppers and peanuts, and the rest of the supplies, I have accepted them all. Tell me, how much money do you need?"

    Hadmon smiled naively, looking harmless and sincere, and said quickly: "King Qi, without you, I would not be where I am now. You only need to give me five hundred thousand taels of silver for this batch of supplies.  It's a friendly price. With the money, I can buy silk fabrics and tea leaves in large quantities, and then sell them."

    Wang Qi sneered in his heart.

    Five hundred thousand taels of silver?

    A businessman like Hardmon is a pure businessman, and it is impossible to talk about more friendship.  The relationship between the two parties is the exchange of interests.  This batch of seeds and slaves are the most valuable ones.

    I guess the seeds were given as gifts when buying slaves.  Especially this batch of slaves, can they be sold for a hundred taels of silver each?  Even if a slave had one hundred taels of silver and three thousand people came down, they would only have three hundred thousand taels of silver.

    In fact, don¡¯tIt is impossible to break even one hundred taels of silver in half. This is Wang Qi's judgment.

    Wang Qi knew that developing a Hardemon would help deepen his understanding of foreign countries and help his future layout, so Wang Qi said: "One price, one hundred thousand taels of silver, and all the slaves and seeds will belong to me."

    "ah!"

    Hardmon exclaimed when he heard it.

    There was a look of shock on that slightly rough and rough face.  When he asked, it was five hundred thousand taels of silver. Even if he bargained for half the price, it would still be two hundred and fifty thousand taels of silver.  In Wang Qi's place, it suddenly became one hundred thousand taels of silver.

    This bargaining is too harsh.

    Hardemon said quickly: "His Royal Highness, King Qi, are you a bit too aggressive in bargaining like this? As soon as you open your mouth, it becomes one hundred thousand taels of silver. The cost for me to buy these slaves is more than one hundred thousand taels of silver. King Qi,  After all, we are friends, and you are someone I admire even more. Let¡¯s do this, for 400,000 taels of silver, don¡¯t bargain anymore. Otherwise, this business really won¡¯t survive.¡±

    Wang Qi listened to Hardmon crying for money. If he really believed it, he would be a fool.

    Four hundred thousand taels of silver.

    buy what?

    Do you consider yourself an idiot?

    Wang Qi still clearly remembers when Hardmon said sweet potatoes were a miracle medicine.

    This person is unreliable.

    Wang Qi¡¯s eyes were sharp. He stared at Hardmon and said calmly: ¡°Harmon, I will give you ninety thousand taels of silver.¡±

    brush!

    Hardmeng¡¯s expression changed drastically.

    There was a touch of gloom in his eyes, and he was even more dignified.  The previous one hundred thousand taels of silver, he just bargained with, suddenly turned into ninety thousand taels of silver.  He can even be sure that this time, if he continues to bargain, it may become 80,000 taels of silver in the next moment.

    This is definitely something that could happen.

    Harder's face turned bitter. At this moment, he thought that he had tried to deceive Wang Qi, but was exposed by Wang Qi, so that he lost face in the end.  Fortunately, Wang Qi bought him all the grain, etc. and also supported him, so that he could go overseas to do business again.

    Then, there is now.

    Hardemon took a deep breath and secretly thought that he was too greedy. Once Wang Qi's business failed and he didn't know the other people, it would be uneconomical to abandon Wang Qi.

    Hardemon looked at Wang Qi and said again: "Your Highness said ninety thousand taels of silver, so ninety thousand taels of silver. Now all the slaves are at the ferry dock in Donghai County. If you agree now, we will trade. The rest of the grain  I¡¯ll give you all the seeds too.¡±

    After hearing this, Wang Qi said: "Hardmon, the friend I hope is a friend who is good to you and me, instead of you trying to rip me off or even intending to bleed me. This time, that's it. If it's the same next time  In this case, you can't even think of doing business with me. Anyway, to me, there is not much difference between having slaves and not having slaves."

    Hardemon said: "King Qi is right, I remember it."

    Wang Qi immediately arranged for people to invite Zhu Shanchang, introduced Hardemon to Zhu Shanchang, and told him about the transaction of 90,000 taels of silver. Zhu Shanchang was also very surprised after hearing this.

    Three thousand slaves are not a handful.

    is extremely valuable.

    Zhu Shanchang looked at Hadmon at this time, with a smile on his face. He was someone who could be used.  If there were a steady stream of slaves, Qi would develop faster.

    Wang Qi ordered: "Zhu Qing, you are responsible for arranging the affairs of three thousand slaves. In addition, the newly sent peanuts and pepper seeds will be planted next year. For us, this is another kind of food. Although the yield is low,  But it is also irreplaceable. Especially chili, it is the most important part of food."

    "yes!"

    Zhu Shanchang immediately agreed.

    He took Hardemon away, and Wang Qi felt happy.

    Today¡¯s Qi State has sweet potatoes, potatoes, and corn, and now it also has peppers and peanuts. The entire product system has become more and more complete, which is an excellent thing.  (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
