The Great Seminary

Chapter 111 It’s done
There are one hundred and eight precious tripods in the alchemy room of Shangshishijing.

Thirty-six of them can be used to make fine pills, thirty-six can be used to make good dried meat pills, and the last thirty-six can be used to make pure dried meat pills.

Assuming that three furnaces can be opened a day, each furnace can produce ten pure dried meat pills, twenty high-quality dried meat pills, and forty fine-quality pills.

The total amount of food pills refined each month is more than 32,000 pure dried meat pills, multiple times the amount of good dried meat pills, and multiple times the amount of fine pills.

However, Zhang Gui reduced the number by half and was being petty in order to leave room for negotiation.

Now, he had unexpectedly completed the deal with Perry in a matter of seconds, and it was difficult for him to change his mind.

He could only say goodbye immediately and return to the True Dragon Kingdom, bringing back enough food pills to show his full sincerity.

He immediately won the trust of Pollis.

The two then spent a whole day clarifying each other's rights and obligations and drafting a contract.

To the United Kingdom of Britannia, Xigazhou;

the Black Teutonic League of Nobles;
The Gaul Empire and the New God Yesa Church jointly established the "White Eagle Bank".

The notary office 'Holy Libra' established in the Civilization Pioneer City officially reorganized the 'Black Lion Trading Agency Company' into:
Black Lion and Tiger Joint Trading Company.

According to the general understanding of Xihezhou merchants, contractual business partners bound by economic interests are much more reliable than ordinary kinship relationships based on blood ties.

Especially since Zhang Gui had invested in it upfront, costing at least one 'Pure White Eagle', a hot-selling item...

One small eagle yuan is worth half a penny of silver.

Ten small eagle dollars can be exchanged for one eagle dollar, and ten eagle dollars can be exchanged for one large eagle dollar.

Twenty Big Eagle Dollars can be exchanged for one Small Golden Eagle, ten Small Golden Eagles can be exchanged for one Golden Eagle, and ten Golden Eagles can be exchanged for one Big Golden Eagle.

Ten large golden eagles could be exchanged for one pure white eagle, which was equivalent to approximately 100,000 taels of silver from the Ming and Song dynasties...

This does not include the acquisition of production technology, the training of high-level human resources, the wear and tear of production materials and other intangible values.

Walk out of the gate of 'Holy Libra'.

Before getting on the carriage, Pollis had already made a promise.
"Tomorrow, the Black Lion and Tiger Joint Trading Company will officially open in a stand-alone commercial building in the best location on Silverfish Street.

The first floor is a shop selling food pills, both wholesale and retail, but of course they only sell three kinds..."

"Oh, Ms. Pollis, I am obsessed with spiritual practice and controlling the overall situation.

And this big picture does not refer to our small trading company, but the vast world.

So you just take charge of the business matters, and I will only be responsible for the profits.

And now, can you introduce me to the best of this city? I can't wait any longer."

After hearing this, Perry suddenly looked at Zhang Gui seriously.
“Now that we have officially signed a contract to become business partners, you can call me Perry.

And I hope to call you Yang or Zhang."

"Then you can call me Yang. I'm not used to being addressed by one character."

"Okay, Yang."

Perry nodded, took out a pocket watch from his pocket, and gently pressed it against Zhang Gui's heart.
"Now, please tell me, you are not really a royal duke of the Ming and Song dynasties, so you don't care about the double-digit annual business of the 'Pure White Eagle', right?

Or maybe you are not from Ming or Song at all, but a secret spy from other countries in Dongzhou?
I don't need you to tell me your true identity and origins.

But I have to know if you are serving someone higher up or some organization.

Sometimes you are forced to make decisions that go against your will.

Don't lie, the 'old clock' will tell the voice of your heart."

It was the first time that Zhang Gui experienced a non-combat type of extraordinary item at such a close distance. He swallowed nervously, but he did not refuse.

After all, everything has a first time.

"You have a very vivid imagination, Mr. Rizal. Well, I swear, I have always been, am now, and will always serve only myself.

If someone in this world wants to force me to make a decision against my will, the most likely thing I would do is kill him!"

The pocket watch was ticking, as if nothing had happened.

However, Zhang Gui vaguely felt that something was flowing out of his chest and then filling up again.

Afterwards, Pollis put away his pocket watch and a sincere smile appeared on his face.

“Your words are a bit tricky, but they are enough for me.

Let's go, buddy, let's go have a good meal and wish you a happy cooperation in the future."

"I can't wait."

Zhang Gui smiled back and got into the carriage with Perry.

"How about we go to 'Sea Flavor' where we went last time? The spicy seafood stew and creamy desserts there are both very good.

By the way, I need your help with something."

The whole afternoon passed in a flash as we enjoyed eating, drinking, chatting and laughing.

In the evening, Pollis went to the dock area of ​​the Pioneer City of Civilization.

A small 50-ton pneumatic alchemical armed cargo ship was rented.

He began to build connections and use them to buy back the Ming and Song people overnight.

While she was busy, Zhang Gui teleported back to the True Dragon Kingdom again and made arrangements.

Then, more than 20 people from Nan Chizhou who had already settled down in Shangshishijing and whose wives were pregnant were selected and disguised as sailors.

Teleported into the cargo ship rented by Pollis.

It was not uncommon for some domesticated and loyal Nanchi slaves to be promoted to sailors by their masters or even freed to become first mates.

So let alone now when it is pitch dark, even if they appeared in Class A during the day, they would not attract anyone's attention.

After a long time.

Perry appeared on the shore and began to deliver the redeemed Ming and Song prisoners of war to the cargo ship one by one.

When she saw Zhang Gui appear on the side of the ship, she was not surprised. She waved her hand and said:
"Aren't you coming to help?"

Zhang Gui then smiled and began to help escort the prisoners of war.

Two hours later, he stood at the berth and watched the last rescued person, Song Mingren, climb up to Class A in a daze, and breathed a sigh of relief.

He thanked Rizal and said:
"I did have a feeling that with the connections you've made, you should be able to redeem a certain number of Song and Ming prisoners of war, but I didn't expect it to happen so quickly.

It was really hard work. "

“We are now contractual business partners. When we need each other, we must do our best to help without harming our own interests. This is moral obligation.

Besides, you poor fellow countrymen with chopped-off thumbs are not worth much.

It’s just that the supply is getting smaller and smaller, so it’s a bit difficult to collect them.”

First, Perry commented that living people were like commodities, and then, in a somewhat didactic tone, he said:

"Besides, it's only a quarter past three in the morning, and I'm not doing any heavy mental work like counting accounts, so it's not hard at all.

A qualified businessman will not sleep for half a month when business is good.

It's normal for even an extraordinary body to be exhausted to the point of fainting.

Money is not easy to make!"
