Chapter 42 Spitsbergen (6)

    Wei Lu Wei was a Dutch East India Co resident in svalbard, Governor general, but not Holland resident in svalbard, Governor general, so his orders could only be passed through the interior of the East India Company


    For businessmen affiliated to the East India Company, whether to listen to the company''s advice or not only depends on the distribution of benefits, only those who work for the company will obey the order


    As a result, Huang Xuan''s small stall not only did not reduce the number of people in front of it, but also increased the volume of transactions


    To his surprise, most people were unwilling to sell whale oil, even at the european purchase price last year


    One day and one night, Huang Xuan sold 300 tons of food and all the spices, and the original samples on his stall were taken away, but because there were too many people trading, it was too late to put them on


    By the morning of the next day, there were fewer and fewer people


    But around the warehouse, sailors were lying all over the place


    Most of them came as porters to earn extra money, and some were sent by the captain


    When there was no work to do, they lay on the cold ground to rest


    Rubbing his eyes in the hope that it would ease the fatigue of the night, he was in a state of mental tension and excitement


    So far, he had received 3,500 Florin


    Although they were temporarily put into the plane passageway, those tall and powerful sailors did not know that he was still worried


    If someone shouted, what would the red-eyed people do


    Fortunately, the red haired men were at peace for the time being


    Another batch of grain was sent out of the warehouse


    Huang xuan took a breath, took out the registration slip in his hand and shouted, "Who is Mr


    Kerry


    " Kerry was the big nose that Huang Xuan had seen before


    He bent slightly and rushed out of the corner


    He grabbed Huang Xuan''s hand and said," Mr


    Fei Lipu, it''s me


    Don''t shout


    "" Oh


    " Huang xuan shrugged and said," um


    Mr


    Kerry


    "" It''s me


    " Kerry''s nose seemed to be sweating


    He looked at the warehouse behind him and said," shall we talk inside


    "" Right here


    " Huang Xuan shook his head


    He kept himself in the public eye, even when he went to the warehouse to see the goods


    Only by being vigilant could he reduce the greed of others


    " It''s not convenient here


    " Big nose obviously didn''t like this place


    It was too eye-catching


    He shook his head persistently


    " Okay


    " Kerry licked his lips, turned his head towards the door and said," I want to buy your sugar


    How much more do you have


    " As he spoke, he spread out his clenched palms, which were filled with white sugar brought by Huang Xuan


    " About 6000 pounds, maybe a little more


    What''s wrong


    " Huang Xuan had always wondered why the spices were sold so cleanly while the sugar was not sold at all


    He had originally speculated whether it was related to the difference in the plane, where europe already had sugar, but he did not know that it was all because someone had the heart to take all the sugar as a sample


    " Make a price


    " His big nose trembled slightly, as if he was scared and excited


    Squinting his eyes, he tapped his fingers on the wall of the warehouse


    After a moment of thought, he said," you want all 6,000 pounds


    "" Yeah


    " The dutchman was impatient and asked," make a price


    I don''t have much time


    "" I think we have to wait for Mr


    Hu An


    He also wants this cane sugar


    Look, his fleet will arrive in the afternoon


    " Kerry wrinkled his nose


    He didn''t like the spanish name


    He looked down at huang xuan and said," hoi, guawa, from the island


    I know you want to charge a high price


    Don''t play tricks


    "" Really


    " Huang Xuan didn''t care about such low-level threats, and the dumbest kid in the The huang family wouldn''t change his mind


    He shrugged, picked up the registration form, and was ready to call the next person


    Kerry had no choice but to cover the paper with his palm and raise his other hand


    " God bless you, my price will satisfy you


    "" Maybe you can come back in the afternoon


    " Huang Xuan did not move his frostbitten hand away, but put his hand behind his back with the registration form


    " I''m leaving this afternoon


    Take my boat with me, understand


    " Kerry looked around and no one noticed him


    He decided not to work with wei lu anymore


    He wanted to go back to europe


    As long as he brought 6,000 pounds of pure white sugar, he could live well in any country in europe


    Now, he has a total of 8000 Florin, which is his entire fortune


    Uh, plus some money for whale oil


    Wei Lu Wei was old and his judgment was declining


    He used the price of european whale oil to buy it last year


    Who would do such a stupid thing, even if there was a war, the most valuable thing would not be whale oil, but more likely to transport difficult food, who cared about the bloody war supplies, only the guy who was confused by the title


    "1,000 Florin per thousand pounds


    " Kerry couldn''t help but offer


    He didn''t have time to spend here


    Who knows when Wei Lu Wei would think of him


    Time was also tight, but he still pretended to say," look, Mr


    Hu An has ordered this batch of sugar


    I can''t sell it to you


    ""1100 Florin


    " Kerry offered again and suppressed the thought of looking around


    "1400


    " This was Lorraine''s suggestion


    14 Florin could buy a sheep, and it was fair to trade half a ton of sugar for 100 sheep


    But then Huang Xuan thought of tulips


    If it was 1400 Florin, he could buy about a fifth of the" forever Augustus


    " What a pervert


    Kerry wrinkled his big nose and bargained," 1,200


    That''s all I have


    " Looking at him, he could stay here for another day, so he shook his head firmly and said," looks like I have to wait for Mr


    Hu An


    " Kerry was gasping for air and his fists were clenching


    Huang Xuan gave him a casual look and attacked a level 22 time traveler with a strong backing


    Big nose left in disappointment


    He couldn''t use all his assets to buy the sugar in Huang Xuan''s hands


    That was too risky, although offending the East India Company was even more risky


    Turning the register to the next page, Huang Xuan felt very tired


    He had never stayed up all night to work, and now it was an experience


    Another englishman traded a boat of whales for half a boat of wheat


    England was a country used to importing wheat


    After a few years, they would also import wheat from Norway


    Huang Xuan just moved the time forward


    In the evening, Huang Xuan''s main job was to buy


    It was a stupid idea for him to spend all his gold coins and bring metal products home, at least for now


    Opening a warehouse at will, huang xuanze waited outside the door while the buyer ordered his own goods


    Looking at the sailors shouting at the other side, carrying bags of grain, a green-eyed guy shouted," be careful, don''t spill it


    " The owner who wanted to sell the whale would unload the whale on the dock near the warehouse


    After the declaration of huang, a large group of paid sailors would try their best to drag it into the nearby rented warehouse, and Lorraine would use all the means he could think of to steal the whale meat from the dock or warehouse


    If necessary, he might even knock out the workers on the dock


    He was the only one who slept on the ground anyway


    This was perhaps the happiest time in Green bay in the last 10 years


    All shipowners who docked at the port were informed of this news


    Not only would East India Company buy whale oil at a european c


    I


    f


    Price, but people would also be willing to buy any part of the whale, and they could also exchange it for good quality food


    What could be happier than earning more money


    Only the owners of the small boats tightened their faces


    Because of the small boats, most of them only cut off the most valuable whale oil after catching the whale


    Only the hundreds of tons of ships were willing to bring the whole whale back to the port and replenish the fresh water


    In this feast, the owners of the small boats could only comfort themselves


    After all, the price of whale oil has risen, and the empty space can be rented to other shipowners, or take this time to go to sea again, and this time, the whale body will never be lost again


    Not knowing that he had changed the fate of many people, he dragged his heavy eyelids and called out every name on the register, either to collect money, or to exchange, or to pay for every whale he saw


    As for whether it was an arctic whale or a baleen whale, Huang Xuan could not care less


    Filled with a warehouse full of whale meat, huang xuan picked up a dry towel to wipe his frosty face and complained," why isn''t there any frost protection here


    "" They should have given you whale oil to wipe your face


    " It was Hu An, who had disappeared for a day, whose hair was glued to his temples by the damp sea breeze, and he looked very down and out


    " That smell is too fishy


    " Huang Xuan sniffled and said," I thought you weren''t coming


    "" You still have the white sugar I asked for, right


    " Hu An was a little anxious


    He came back at the risk of overturning the boat


    He spread out his hand and said," although you didn''t give me a deposit, I still left them in the warehouse, but I don''t promise to sell them to you


    "" Thank you, dear brother


    " Hu An was so excited that he opened his hands and tried to hold Huang Xuan, but he was nimbly avoided


    "1400 Dutch shields per thousand pounds, or equivalent whales


    " Huang Xuan did not let go of Hu An''s enthusiasm at all


    Every businessman was very enthusiastic about the price


    Hu an exhaled a white breath and stared at huang xuan


    " We''re friends, aren''t we


    ""1400 Dutch shields, or someone else


    " The shells of this level were not even coated with sugar


    Huang xuan shook the register in his hand and said," come back to me after you think about it


    " The spaniard was still thinking about it when Kerry, with his big nose, rushed out from behind the warehouse and looked around carefully


    He squinted at hu an and said," 1400 Florin, I want it


    " He opened his hands again and shrugged


    " So, which one of you wants to take 6,000 pounds of sugar the most


    I want 8400 Florin


    "" Me


    " The spaniard and the dutchman spoke at the same time, then glared at each other, their big noses scrambling," did we talk first


    "" It''s us


    " Hu An retorted," I ordered this batch of sugar


    "" But I didn''t pay the deposit


    " Big nose obviously heard the conversation


    He took out a pocket on his body and shook it, saying," look, I have brought the deposit


    " Hu An raised his neck and shouted," me too


    " His loud voice made his big nose flinch, but he soon forgot about the crowd around him


    He looked up and said in dutch word by word," this is mine


    " When hu an tried to refute, Huang Xuan stopped their conversation


    The 1400 Florin was already a very high price, otherwise Kerry wouldn''t have thought about it for so long, so there was no need to raise the price


    " So, both of you, I need the whale more than the dutch shield right now, so who gives me the most whale first and who will get this batch of sugar


    "" No problem


    " They looked at each other and hu an said," but it''s too far to send the oil here


    "" Just stay on the boat


    " Huang Xuan was still impatient to wait here to pretend to be in the warehouse


    He clicked on the warehouse behind him and said," every thousand pounds is a unit


    Whoever prepares the corresponding goods first can take away 1000 pounds of sugar, right


    "" Of course
