Everyone enjoyed how many treasures the nobles' families got because of the war, and then began to wring their fingers to estimate how much they could get this time.
Of course, counting with your fingers is impossible, so when Man Bao went to the medical tent and came back, Duan Cishi called everyone to share the spoils.
The treasures they dug up were not placed outside, but were piled up in a big tent, and the governor Duan sent heavy troops to guard them.
The soldiers have put everything away, gold piles, silver piles, cloth aside, gems and gems piled together...
Of course, it doesn't care about the quality, but everyone doesn't care, and they don't plan to take out the valuation one by one, and just draw the quantity. Except for those jewelry full of treasures, they chose some that they particularly like, and the others are roughly Plan to pull out 30%.
Then, as they said before, they exchanged some things that were not easy to bring with them for some jewelry.
Then Bai Shan made the decision to distribute things to the people on their side. Nie Canjun naturally took a lot. In addition to gold and silver, he chose a lot of silk and brocade. He said: "When you arrive in the Western Regions, sell these fabrics directly Just go."
Even if these fabrics have some flaws and the colors are not as bright as they were at the beginning, the price is still very high in the Western Regions.
At that time, I will change the gems and bring them back to the capital, and I will make a lot of money every time I go there.
On the contrary, he doesn't like gold and silver very much, because the gold and silver he shares will not increase if he takes them to the Western Regions and brings them back to the capital, unless he takes the gold and silver to buy gems.
The soldiers under him thought so too.
Seeing that Governor Duan disliked these fabrics, they wanted to lower the price and buy the silk and satin with gold and silver, but Bai Shan stopped them before they could open their mouths.
He said: "We sell it to you."
Silks and satins are not very valuable here, especially these silk brocades that are not well maintained, and they are processed in batches, so the price must not be high.
Nie Canjun was puzzled, "Didn't Mr. Bai take you to the Western Regions?"
When the people arrive in the Western Regions, the goods will arrive, so there is no need to sell them at this time, right
Bai Shan smiled and said, "We need money now."
Nie Canjun didn't ask any more questions, and the two discussed the price.
Nie Canjun didn't know much about the price of silk and satin, so he hesitated for a while and said, "My lord, give it to me."
Bai Shan: ...
He doesn't know if the price is good or not.
But they didn't know, but the horse thieves definitely knew, so Bai Shan took Nie Canjun to find some horse thieves, and asked, "How much do you want to sell those fabrics for?"
The horse thief who was asked was taken aback for a moment, and then gave a rough estimate, and Bai Shan asked again, "How much did the other party open, and you didn't reach an agreement?"
It was true that they didn't agree, because the other party suppressed the price very hard. If it weren't for the fact that the place was not their territory, they wouldn't be so angry, so the fabric was pulled back at that time.
After Bai Shan knew the price, he said to Nie Canjun, "I don't want to take advantage of you, just give me the price offered by that merchant."
Nie Canjun didn't think much about it, and agreed with a smile, so he went to his subordinates to gather up all the gold and silver they got, and after counting them, he bought all the cloth in Bai Shanzhouman's hands.
Bai Shan didn't hand over the money to Man Bao and the others, but turned around to find Duan Inspector and asked, "Master Duan is leaving?"
Duan Cishi said: "We will leave tomorrow, what, Mr. Bai won't go with us?"
Bai Shan shook his head and said, "After returning to Liangzhou, we still have to turn around and come out. There's no need. We'll go to the Western Regions."
Inspector Duan didn't expect them to be in such a hurry, and was a little disappointed, "I thought I could get together with Master Bai, Mr. Zhou for a while longer."
Bai Shan smiled and said: "When we come back, we must stay in Liangzhou for two more days, then we can get together again."
Bai Shan said with concern: "Lord Duan, we are also destined, and with the relationship of His Royal Highness, we are also considered our own."
Duan Cishi nodded repeatedly and said yes with a smile.
Bai Shan said: "This year the spices and precious stones from the Western Regions should be very profitable in the Central Plains, especially the spices, which are used less. This year, because of the smallpox in Xiazhou, the grasslands have also been affected. Come from the east, but there must be far fewer people.”
Inspector Duan nodded again and again, "Yes, there are a lot fewer people coming from east or west this year."
"Things are rare and precious. It's good that things like gems don't get damaged, but spices are used every day. The spices in the hands of adults are best sent to the south of Xiazhou before they are sold, and they must be sold before autumn. "
Duan Inspector was puzzled, "Why?"
Bai Shan smiled and said: "Now the smallpox is gone, after a summer, those who wait and see will naturally leave."
Governor Duan nodded, thanking Bai Shan for his suggestion.
Bai Shan then offered to buy the cloth in his hands with gold and silver, he smiled and said, "Spices are scarce in Central Plains, but silk and satin are not. It just so happens that we are going to the Western Regions this time, so we might as well sell them for you."
One of the two most troublesome things for Governor Duan was these silk brocades.
They can't use it themselves, and the price of selling it is very low. Liangzhou's position is not high or low, and it is really difficult to find a suitable businessman to take over.
Hearing that Bai Shan was willing to buy it, he couldn't wish for it.
Bai Shan mentioned the price these horse thieves got when they took the fabrics to the merchants. He said: "At that time the fabrics were brightly colored, so the merchants charged this price. Now the fabrics are not well maintained, so I can only offer you seven." What do you think of the price?"
Governor Duan thought about it, and found that it was a little less than he expected, but he didn't have to bother to find a merchant, and he might not be able to negotiate the price if he found a merchant, so he agreed after a little thought.
Bai Shandang bought all the cloth in his hands, and then began to worry: "Gold and silver are easy to carry, but they take up a lot of space, and it is not convenient to carry them to the Western Regions."
Governor Duan cheered up, and proposed to exchange those jewels with him for gold and silver.
A piece of jewelry is very valuable. A box of gold and silver may only be exchanged for a box of jewelry. Isn’t that saving space
But Bai Shan smiled and said: "If you want to talk about the gems in Master Duan's hands, you can only see the opal, and we don't lack the rest."
"It's also good to sell it."
Bai Shan shook his head and refused, "The Western Regions are rich in gemstones, only those who bring gems back from there, how can anyone bring gems from here?"
He said: "However, if Master Duan is willing to part with the opal, I can exchange it with you with gold, silver and other things, which can save a lot of space."
Governor Duan really wanted to sell the opal, but...
"I'm afraid the gold and silver in Mr. Bai's hand is not enough?"
"Don't you still have spices?" Bai Shan said, "Did your lord forget that we have a box of styrax?"
He smiled slightly at Duan Inspector, and asked: "My lord, have you thought about it, the opal in your hand is precious, is it possible to sell it?"
Duan Cishi: ...
