Five Hundred and Fifty-Nine: Come on, Let Me Show You a Big Treasure (1)

In order to protect the secret of glass to the maximum extent, heavy troops were sent to guard the vicinity of the brick kiln. Everyone who worked in the kiln was strictly monitored, and their families and the recent money flow were also kept in detail by Jiang Pengji.

Of course, as compensation, all the craftsmen working in the kiln can get a generous salary every month, the old and young in the family can also get a relatively easy job, and children of school age have priority to enter the college for education. Under multiple means, the secret of glass is well protected. Every firing is extremely confidential. The fired glass must be registered, and the defective products must be strictly destroyed.

In order to whet the appetite of the noble lady of Beijiang, the number of firings in the previous few times was relatively small, and there were only more than a hundred sets scattered.

Now, in order to cheat Beijiang of the last sum of money, Jiang Pengji ordered a large number of firings and rushed to work day and night.

This desperate spirit made the kiln craftsman sweat profusely, fearing that he was still asleep and received the wrong order.

When Gu Xin arrived with the caravan, Jiang Pengji had already fired thousands of sets of glassware and many exquisite glass jewelry. Even though Gu Xin knew that these things were worthless, when they were placed together, his heart couldn't bear it.

Gu Xin hurriedly said, "Little Master, what are you doing?"

Glass doesn't cost much, but they can be sold at sky-high prices, so you should sell it slowly to maximize the profit.

Once this thing is flooded, it will be worthless.

Jiang Pengji said to Gu Xin, "Uncle Gu, don't worry. Have you heard about the sudden death of Princess An Yina of Beijiang? Now the Dongqing royal family occupies Chenzhou, and King Changshou leads troops to besiege, and the two are at a stalemate. Now that the princess of Beijiang has died suddenly, I am worried that Beijiang will use this excuse to attack Dongqing. Even if they don't fight, according to your opinion, will King Changshou collude with Beijiang?"

Gu Xin couldn't help but fall into deep thought.

He was a big businessman who traveled all over the country to do business, so he was naturally well-informed. He knew about the sudden death of Princess An Yina of Northern Frontier.

Gu Xin asked, "Does the young master think that once the Northern Frontier goes to war, the business will be difficult to do?"

Jiang Pengji smiled and said, "If the Northern Frontier goes to war with Dongqing, it will definitely mobilize the whole country. For a 'luxury' like glass, even if those noble ladies are greedy and want to buy it, they probably have to think twice. What's more, there is no wall that is impenetrable. I'm just afraid that if they know the secret of glass, they will not be able to pay you, Uncle Gu..."

Glass is something that only Gu Xin's Jubaozhai sells in the entire Northern Frontier. If they find that glass is not valuable,

and it is not something from the Heavenly Palace, they will definitely be angry and implicate Gu Xin, which is not what Jiang Pengji wants to see.

Gu Xin frowned and asked tentatively, "So, the young master is planning to do the last business?"

Get rich before the Northern Frontier goes to war?

Jiang Pengji did not tell Gu Xin about the horse plague. Apart from her and Wei Ci, no third person would know about it.

If there is really a horse plague, this last business deal will probably cause a certain blow to the economy of Northern Xinjiang.

The more she earns, the worse it will be for Northern Xinjiang. It will take longer to recover completely.

These thoughts went through her mind.

She nodded and said, "Well, that's what I think. However, if all these glasses are dumped in Northern Xinjiang, they can't be consumed in a short time, and it's also risky to do so. So, I want to ask Uncle Gu to sell some of them to Zhongzhao and other countries, and the business in Northern Xinjiang... After selling this time, withdraw as soon as possible... I don't know if this will have any impact on Uncle Gu's industry..."

The industry is managed by Gu Xin, he is an expert, and Jiang Pengji, an outsider, should listen to the opinions of experts.

Gu Xin smiled and said, "Young master, you don't have to be so polite. Business in Beijiang is not very prosperous, especially in recent years, the money earned is getting less and less, and it is indeed time to change the place of business. It is also a good idea to take this opportunity to stop."

Beijiang is increasingly malicious to Dongqing, and the business of these merchants is naturally becoming more and more difficult. If Gu Xin did not have a wide network of contacts in Beijiang and those ladies and ladies liked to take care of his business, Jubaozhai would have closed down long ago.

Gu Xin was not reluctant to blackmail Beijiang and pack up and leave.

He carefully selected a batch of glass, the quality of which was similar to or slightly better than the glass sold before, with a total of more than 2,000 sets!

"If these are sold to Beijiang and the normal sales route is taken, it will definitely not be eaten up. If you want to get rid of them quickly, the black market is a good channel for selling stolen goods... But, the price may not be as high as before. If the other party lowers the price, it must be at least 50% lower!"

When it came to the last sentence, even though Gu Xin was used to big scenes, he still couldn't help but feel distressed.

More than 2,000 sets of glass. If they are sold slowly at the previous price, at least 140 million guan can be obtained.

What is this concept?

The national treasury income of Dongqing in a normal year is only 150 million guan, and this is when there is no disaster in the country. If there is a flood here, a drought there, an earthquake from time to time, and a famine... hehe, the national treasury income in a year is less than 90 million guan.

Jiang Pengji narrowed her eyes and said, "Uncle Gu, just do what you want, as long as you can get rid of it in the shortest time. Exchange all these glasses for silver or sheepskin. It doesn't matter if you make less money."

Without the northern border, we still have the four southern barbarians to exploit. The distant Zhongzhao, Beiyuan, Xichang and even the southern mainland of Dongqing... are all markets! There is no need to worry about having no place to make money. If you are willing to give up a little profit, you can make more money in the future.

Being comforted by Jiang Pengji, Gu Xin couldn't help but smile, and his heart was more confident.

"Young master, please rest assured. I will definitely not live up to your expectations."

Gu Xin bowed solemnly. In the past, he was grateful for Gu Min's kindness, but now he was impressed by Jiang Pengji's trust and generosity.

He sighed in his heart, worthy of being mother and daughter.

Jiang Pengji suddenly thought of something and gave a word.

"Uncle Gu, after this business, you don't need to buy foals anymore."

Gu Xin was surprised, "Young master, why is that?"

All the horse farms in Dongqing are in Cangzhou, and they have almost become the property of the Meng family. The Liu and Meng families were a bit dirty in their previous generations. It is basically impossible to buy good war horses from them. Even if he could, the money spent was not something Jiang Pengji could afford.

Jiang Pengji said, "Uncle Gu has bought me more than 3,000 high-quality foals in the past few trips. Although the amount is not much each time, it is a considerable number when accumulated. I think the owners of the horse farms in the northern border are not blind. If the number is large, they will be vigilant. Now that the war is about to start, the control of the horse farms in the northern border will only be stricter. If Uncle Gu goes to buy horses again, I am afraid that there will be trouble..."
