"Sir, stop, please show your membership card!" Li Yin just wanted to enter the Maritime Trade Center, but was stopped by a somewhat weird female voice. It was only then that Li Yin realized that there were blond and blue-eyed Persian men standing on both sides of the gate. Orchid, the one on the right hand side stopped him.

"Membership card?" Hearing this name, Li Yin was in a trance, feeling as if he had returned to the 21st century.

And the Chinese-speaking Persian orchid saw Li Yin's dazed look, thought she had guessed something immediately, and then smiled and said: "If you don't have a membership card, you can also show your tax bill at the port. You can also enter!"

"Tax bill?" Now Li Yin really had a wry smile on his face. It seems that the other party really regarded himself as a businessman who came to the Lion City. Otherwise, how could there be a tax bill? Outside of business, most people would not come to this kind of place.

Seeing Li Yin's hesitation, the Persian orchid on the opposite side immediately understood, and she still smiled and said: "Since you don't have a membership card, and you don't have a tax bill, you must not be a businessman who comes to the Lion City, and this center usually only accepts businessmen. It’s open, so I invite you to look elsewhere!” Capital Datang 566

Although it was to drive people away, this beautiful Persian Hu Ji smiled at Yan Yan, which made people feel disgusted. It seemed that Wang Kuang also knew the charm of beautiful women.And Li Yin also smiled sassyly after hearing this: "So that's the case, but I was abrupt!"

But just when Li Yin was pulling the reluctant Chouchou and Yanyan to leave, suddenly a guard in plain clothes came over, handed a token to Li Yin, and said something in a low voice.Now Li Yin showed joy, turned around and showed the token in his hand to Hu Ji, and said, "I forgot just now. I wonder if this token of the governor's mansion may let me wait in?"

The guards around him have heavy responsibilities, and sometimes they need to mobilize some people to help.So every time he went to a place, he needed some convenience from the local officials, and the token in the guard's hand was what he had asked for from Wang Kuang before.

Hu Ji, who was welcoming the guests, was obviously well-informed. When she saw the token of the Governor's Mansion, she immediately showed respect and said softly: "My lord, you are joking, this token can even enter the Governor's Mansion." , our Maritime Trade Center can also enter naturally!"

Li Yin nodded after hearing this, and put the token into his arms casually.Then he dragged Chouchou and Yanyan into it, but following him, there were ten more men wearing various costumes, but all of them were tough-faced people who showed their badges from the Governor's Mansion and entered Haimao In the middle, this surprised the two Persian orchids who were welcoming guests, and at the same time guessed the identity of the young man who went in just now.

As soon as Li Yin entered the room, he immediately felt a commotion coming towards his face. Although the square outside was already very noisy, it was comparable to this place.But there is a feeling of being insignificant.

What appeared in front of Li Yin was an extremely wide hall, and in this hall, it can be clearly seen that it is divided into several areas.Every area was crowded with people, and Hu Han businessmen in various costumes stood there, staring nervously at the wooden signs hanging on the front wall.

But when Li Yin approached, he found out.It turns out that this hall is the release hall of goods information, depending on the type of goods.Divided into several areas, each area has dedicated personnel management.From time to time, these people took out pieces of wooden signs with transaction information and hung them on the wall, and sometimes took down some completed transaction information, while those businessmen stared intently at the information on the wall. When receiving information, they will immediately run to the row of management windows below the information, and then contact the person who posted the information through the management staff.

However, it may be because the Maritime Trade Center has just been established, and the merchants are really eager to sell or buy goods, so everyone is shouting anxiously, and their voices are getting louder and louder. It seems that it is a futures trading hall. demeanor.

Li Yin walked along the passages between the various areas with great interest, while Chou Chou and Yan Yan held hands, and their two pairs of big black eyes glared around, as if they were very curious about the noise here.

"I have met you, Young Master. I wonder if there is anything I can do to help you?" At this moment, a young man dressed as a staff member came over and asked Li Yin with a smile on his face.

And Li Yin looked at the other party for a while, and then smiled and said: "We are businessmen who just arrived here today, and it is also the first time here, so we are not familiar with it, can you introduce it to me?"

"Of course!" The other party still smiled and said, and then pointed to the hall to introduce Li Yin.

And through the other party's narration, Li Yin gradually got a general understanding of the entire Maritime Trade Center.Among them, the first floor they are on is the largest and most lively floor of the entire Maritime Trade Center, because the transactions here are all small quantities of goods, and the value is not very big, but there are the most merchants doing this kind of business , so here is also more busy and lively.

And from the second floor to the fourth floor, there are all trading areas similar to the first floor, except that each floor is classified by commodity price, and the higher the price, the higher the commodity price.On the last two floors, there are separate tearooms opened up for the merchants below to discuss business.

"My lord, this is the general situation of our center. I don't know what kind of goods you want to trade and how much it is worth. I can ask someone to take you to the corresponding floor." The young staff member smiled after introducing the situation. It seems that he is just Think of Li Yin as a businessman who came to trade.

On the other hand, Li Yin pretended to think about it, and then he said with a smile: "No, I just brought some scattered goods this time, and the value is not very high, I'm afraid I can only trade here on the first floor! "

"Okay, sir, what kind of goods do you have, and I will take you to the corresponding trading area." The young staff member said again.

However, Li Yin was taken aback when he heard this. He didn't expect the other party's service to be so considerate. He just said casually, but he didn't expect the other party to take him to the trading area. This made Li Yin helplessly make up a lie again. : "I have a batch of sucrose, just take me to the sugar trading area!" Capital Datang 566

Sucrose is one of the most "representative" goods in Taiwan, so Li Yin thought of it unconsciously, and the staff on the opposite side had no doubts, and immediately took Li Yin to the sugar trading area, and then introduced it to Li Yin After some precautions in the trading area, he turned and left.

Only then did Li Yin turn around and take a look at the sugar trading area on the first floor. He was a little surprised to find that there were not many people in the sugar trading area, and there were only about twenty people in total, which was different from other trading areas. Compared with the current situation, it can be described as a crowd.

Li Yin was a little surprised at first, but soon figured out what was going on, because the first floor is the small goods trading area, and the prices of the goods traded are not too high, and sucrose is divided into brown sugar and white sugar, and the price of white sugar is It is very high. Taiwan’s exports are shipped to Southeast Asia, and even Tianzhu, Persia and other places are white sugar.

This is mainly because sucrose is also produced in Tianzhu, but due to the limitation of processing technology, it is impossible to produce white sugar as white as snow, and Lion City is no exception. Most of the sucrose traded is white sugar, and with the high price of white sugar, it must It is in the sugar trading area on the upper floors. It is estimated that there are some low-value brown sugar here on the first floor. It is only eaten by local people in Lion City. The transaction volume is very small, so all the people sitting here are small businessmen.

Because there were too few people, the entire sugar trading area seemed a bit empty. More than [-] small businessmen were all crowded under the trading window, looking up at the listed trading information carefully, and Li Yin took a casual look. I found that there is not a lot of information on the purchase or sale of sucrose, and the price of the purchase of sucrose is not very high. Some of the merchants who are planning to sell sucrose sighed while watching, probably because they were very dissatisfied with the price. Other merchants They are also whispering.

Li Yin walked up with the two little girls, ugly and ugly, and then found a seat at random to sit down, wanting to hear what these businessmen were discussing?

"Brother Shitou, are we going to lose money this time? I found a few shops before, but they didn't accept them. Later, the kind old shopkeeper reminded us to come here to have a look, but the purchase price on the wall They are not very tall, should we sell them or not?" Just behind Li Yin, a fat young man said, and next to him was a dark and thin young man, the two of them naturally It is the stones and piers that came with Li Yin and his fleet.

When Shitou heard Dunzi's words, he shook his head slightly and said, "It's not a big deal to lose money, but I didn't expect the price of sucrose in Lion City to drop so fast. If I knew this, I might as well go north and transport it to Dengzhou." Although the purchase price of sucrose in Lion City is not high, it is better than stable, and there is no need to worry about sales. But now, the price in Lion City fluctuates too much, and we have arrived at this time. If it is sold, after deducting the renting of the boat and the expenses along the way, it is estimated that there will be some money in the end."

"How much?" Xizi smiled bitterly. They have been busy working on this batch of goods during this time, but in the end they only made a few bucks. If you count their expenses in the Lion City, it is estimated that this is a few bucks. No more.Thinking of this, Dunzi couldn't help feeling a little frustrated.

However, compared to Dunzi's frustration, Shitou did not feel discouraged at all. Instead, he stared at the transaction information on the wall with bare eyes, and his mind was spinning rapidly. Stone has gained a lot of experience, and most importantly, he also found such a treasure land as the Ocean Trade Center, maybe he can find a real way of making money from here. (to be continued...)
