Daming Town Haiwang

Chapter 2143, Traveling Escorts in Continental Europe 2
On a road in the territory of the Holy Roman Empire, more than a dozen large trucks were heading towards the Principality of Bohemia on the dirt road.

These large trucks were hung with the dragon flag of the Ming Empire and the flag and logo of Nanyang Wang's Commercial Company. Wherever they passed, a large number of people came to the road to watch.

It was the first time for countless people to see such a big truck. The roar and horn of the truck attracted a large number of people to watch.

Wang Xiyang sat on a large truck in the front, looking at the map carefully. There are two copies of the map, one is the map brought by the Escort itself, and the other is the map purchased locally after arriving in the Holy Roman Empire .

There were two people sitting beside Wang Xiyang, one was an interpreter, and the other was Mu Le, a small businessman from the Holy Roman Empire.

Muller is a Jewish businessman. This time, there happened to be a shipment of goods to Bohemia. He met Wang Xiyang on the road and asked about the road.

So the clever Jewish businessman Mu Le realized that this might be a good opportunity to meet Daming people, and it was also an opportunity to greatly save his time and energy.

So he proposed to Wang Xiyang that he could provide Wang Xiyang with the service of a guide, but the condition was that Wang Xiyang needed to bring him and his own goods and staff.

Wang Xiyang thought about it and agreed. As a mature bodyguard agency, in order to ensure the safety and timely delivery of goods every time, they will not take everything too seriously.

Therefore, one or two more trucks will be prepared. These trucks will be equipped with some tools that need to be used, such as spare tires, tools for repairing cars, and a lot of gasoline, as well as water pumps prepared for extremely poor road conditions. Tools for empty bags, shovels, ropes, and more.

So there is no problem at all in bringing the goods and people of Muller. If there is a local businessman to help guide the way, it will also greatly help reduce a lot of troubles.

"It's only been a day, and they've already arrived in Berlin!"

Muller sat on the truck, looked out the window, and walked on this line all year round, so he knew everything on this line like the back of his hand.

Regarding the speed of the car, he felt a little unbelievable. It was only a day, and he had already arrived in Berlin. Counting it, he traveled more than 500 miles in one day.

This speed is simply too fast!

The most important thing is that the convoy still carries a large amount of goods, and dozens of people can travel more than 500 miles in one day, which was never heard of before.

"This Daming man's car is really good. If I have such a car, it will be much easier for me to do business here and there."

Mueller's mind was constantly thinking.

As a shrewd Jewish businessman, he can always think of the commercial value brought by these new things. There is no doubt that this large truck is very commercially valuable.

"It's too slow!"

"It's only traveled more than 500 miles in one day, and the speed is almost as fast as a tortoise."

"The road conditions in Europe are really bad, especially the bridges. We have already detoured several times. If this continues, we may not be able to deliver the goods to customers on time."

Wang Xiyang threw away the pencil in his hand, very dissatisfied with the current speed.

If it was in Daming, one day would be enough to easily walk a thousand miles, but here it is only less than half the speed.

There is no way, there are only a handful of cement roads on the European side, and only a few concrete roads are built on the Spanish Empire. As for the Holy Roman Empire, because there are many states, principalities, etc., it is impossible for nobles to be willing Spend money to repair this cement road.

The only good thing is that most of the areas here are plains. Although it is not a concrete road, it is still possible to walk. Compared with some places where there is no road, this place is not bad.

It is that most of the bridges here are not good, and cars dare not pass through them, for fear that they will not be able to bear it, so they have to take a lot of detours.

"Mr. Wang, our speed is already very fast. I have traveled more than 500 miles in one day. I didn't dare to think about it before. This speed is too fast."

Mu Le smiled and said to Wang Xiyang.

"Mr. Muller, you may not know the speed of our car. If it was in our Daming, when cement roads were built everywhere in our Daming, it would be very easy for this car to travel thousands of miles a day. If the time is urgent , it’s okay to walk 2000 miles a day.”

Wang Xiyang shook his head slightly and said.

"Oh, God, the speed of walking two thousand miles a day is incredible. Doesn't this mean that it only takes a little more than a day to reach Bohemia?"

When Mueller heard this, he was stunned immediately. He couldn't believe that there was such a speed.

"The roads in Europe are really bad. There are no concrete roads, and we can't drive at this speed. In addition, the bridges here are mostly broken, and our cars cannot pass."

Wang Xiyang shook his head slightly and said.

"I really want to take a walk and take a look at your Ming Empire."

After listening to Mueller, he also said yearningly.

"Haha, if you have a chance, you can go and have a look. I promise you won't be disappointed."

Wang Xiyang immediately laughed happily. In front of the Europeans, the sense of superiority and pride of the Ming people is undoubtedly very strong. Even the merchants and nobles in Europe have very limited knowledge. Any new thing here is enough to amaze them.

"Mr. Wang, how much does a car like this cost?"

Mu Le made Wang Xiyang happy, and also took the opportunity to ask some questions.

"The price of such a car is about 3000 taels of silver. Our cars are all Mercedes-Benz trucks, the best quality trucks."

Wang Xiyang thought for a while and said.

"3000 Daming silver dollars?"

"God, this is too expensive!"

When Mu Le heard this, he couldn't help shaking his head immediately. The price was really too expensive, at least for a small businessman like him.

"Haha, it's okay."

Wang Xiyang smiled.

"Mr. Wang, can you buy everything in Hong Kong?"

"Many people from our side go to Houzhao City to purchase goods and do business."

"Of course, you can buy everything in Hong Kong, but it's the same here in Houzhao City. They are all cities of our Ming Empire, and their commerce and trade are extremely developed."

"Generally speaking, we Daming people now use telegrams to communicate. What kind of goods do you need? Send a telegram to a familiar firm, and then make a bank transfer through the Daming First Bank. The firm will arrange for you after receiving the payment." There is no need to go all the way to deliver the goods.”

"God, can you still do business like this?"

"Aren't you afraid that the goods will not be shipped after receiving the payment? Are you also afraid that the quality of the goods may be defective?"

"We Daming people are the most honest and credible in doing business. We must do what we say. Otherwise, after your reputation is ruined, no one will do business with you again."

"Furthermore, they are all doing business with familiar firms, so there is no need to worry about these things."

"You Daming people really know how to do business. If you do business like this, it will be much easier."

"."

Mu Le and Wang Xiyang kept chatting, and from Wang Xiyang, he also inquired about a lot of things and situations on the Ming side, and learned about the most advanced business methods on the side of the Ming Empire, a business model that he had never heard of before.

Even people can use the telegram to complete the transaction without going. This model is really eye-opening, especially for the people of their Holy Roman Empire.

Wang Xiyang also learned a lot about the Holy Roman Empire from Mueller.

The current Holy Roman Empire has become chaotic.

Under the strong pressure of the Spanish Empire, the nobles of various states are recruiting and training troops wantonly.

For this reason, the taxation on ordinary people had to be increased. The original tax pressure was already very heavy, and this made the people of the Holy Roman Empire miserable and destitute.

You must know that in the past few years, Europe has also experienced severe droughts and floods, and the lives of ordinary people have been extremely difficult.

Now these aristocrats and lords are imposing taxes, which intensifies the pressure even more, leading to a large number of peasant uprisings and urban uprisings in various places, which is very chaotic.

At the same time, there are more and more thieves, bandits, robbers, etc. Small businessmen like Mu Le are very careful when doing business in various places, because if they are not careful, they may be robbed. In the end, not only the goods and money Everything was ransacked, and even their lives were lost.

This time, being able to go to Bohemia with the Escort, the safety is naturally guaranteed, and the key is that the speed is fast enough.

"Mr. Wang, the Holy Roman Empire is very chaotic now, but because of the chaos, the prices of many commodities are much higher than usual, and the profits are also much larger."

When talking about profits, Muller's eyes are shining, with the greed and shrewdness unique to Jewish businessmen.

"Really?"

Wang Xiyang nodded slightly. At this time, a large number of people suddenly appeared on the road to stop the routine. These people were dressed in rags and held weapons such as axes, swords, bows and arrows in their hands. There are hundreds of people.

"not good!"

"There are robbers!"

Seeing these people, Mu Le couldn't help exclaiming immediately, and the whole person was scared to death.

Wang Xiyang seemed much calmer, with a light wave of his hand, the vehicle began to stop slowly, and the bodyguards and bodyguards on the vehicle behind immediately started to act after seeing it, and quickly used the truck to set up a defensive formation. At the same time, some People were on the truck, and some were around the truck, watching these people around vigilantly.
