Stand-in eunuch: I pamper the harem for the emperor

Chapter 851: See the goods and discuss the price

Chapter 851: See the goods and discuss the price
The arms business is also a business, and it is a very profitable business, second only to war and plunder.

The Su family's business does involve the military field, but it is limited to some simple orders, such as military uniforms, armaments, and some resold swords, spears, and spears.

Since the Su family does not have a military workshop, these things are just a resale business, so the profit is not high and the volume is not very large.

However, if there are more horses and chariots, large bed crossbows, platoon crossbows, and large trebuchets, it will be valuable.

After all, now that the Chinese Empire has destroyed the Zheng State, it will soon go to war with the Great Zhou Dynasty. The Great Zhou Dynasty will definitely increase military expenditures and purchase a lot of military supplies.

Su Yifei's beautiful eyes widened, as if she had seen a golden ingot.

"Mr. Lu, do you really have these supplies?"

Miss Su confirmed again.

"Of course, if Miss Su can sell it, we can discuss the price in detail. I will sell it to you at the market price. As for how much you can sell it for, it all depends on Miss Su's connections."

Lu Hao said with a smile.

"Mr. Lu, after all, we met by chance, so our transaction must be paid with one hand and delivered with the other hand!"

Su Yifei put forward her own opinion.

Her meaning was very simple, that is, she would only give money after seeing the goods, and would not give a deposit first, to prevent Lu Hao from being a liar and running away with the deposit.

"Of course, you'll get the money and the delivery!"

Lu Hao readily agreed.

As for how to transport the goods, he planned to use Haojing City's Supervision Department secret agents to have direct dialogue with Xunyang City and ask Ling Zhongxian to send someone to transport the goods.

Of course, it would be better if the Su Family Chamber of Commerce could help with transportation.

When Su Yifei heard that he promised to pay the money and deliver the goods, she immediately felt relieved.

In Haojing City, the Su family still has some strength. If the goods are shipped and then traded face to face, there is no need to worry about being cheated.

Although Lu Hao was a little embarrassed just now, after putting on new clothes, his temperament and conversation were completely different. At first glance, he looked like a young man from an aristocratic family, so he shouldn't be a liar after thinking about it.

Su Yifei's intuition told her that as long as she caught this business, the Su family would make a fortune again.

However, this matter needs to be discussed carefully with his father and asked him to help contact people from the Ministry of War of the Great Zhou Dynasty.

The two discussed some details, especially the quantity, price and quality of these military supplies, as well as the determination of transportation and transaction time.

After all, it would take about ten days and a half to transport it from Xunyang City. Especially for large siege equipment, the transport speed is very slow.

"Mr. Lu, it's nice to meet you. I want to invite you to stay in your house temporarily. What do you think?"

Su Yifei smiled and invited.

"When I first arrived in Haojing City, I really didn't have a place to stay. However, if I go to your house, will it cause you trouble?"

Lu Hao was very considerate of her.

"No, you have brought such a big business to our Su family. You are a distinguished guest of our Su family. How can you say it's troublesome?"

Su Yifei thought about inviting him to her home to prevent her business from being taken away by others.

"In this case, it's better to obey my orders than to be respectful!"

Lu Hao readily agreed.

"Master Lu entrusted such an important business to the young lady. The young lady is very grateful. Naturally, she should act like a landlord."

Su Yifei responded with a smile.

"However, Miss Su, please keep your business with me a secret. The main purpose is to keep the source of these military supplies secret, as well as my identity. You also know that selling these things is risky."

Lu Hao asked with a smile.

"Don't worry, Mr. Lu. If they ask, I will tell you that I will do some gold, silver and jewelry business with Mr. Lu."

Su Yifei nodded slightly and understood what he meant. "Miss Su, I also have some goods in terms of gold, silver and jewelry, as well as some antique calligraphy and paintings from the Zheng royal family. I wonder if Miss Su is interested?"

Lu Hao wants to exchange all the items in the Treasure Building of Zheng Guo Palace for real money.

"Of course you can, but for gold, silver, jewelry and antique calligraphy and paintings, I'm afraid you have to see the goods first before discussing the price. However, I promise to give you a reasonable price."

Su Yifei was pleasantly surprised.

The girl Cui'er's eyes became brighter and brighter. She felt like she had found a treasure this time.

In this way, Lu Hao followed Su Yifei back to the Su family and lived in the most luxurious single-family building in the backyard.

Su Yifei ordered her personal maid Cui'er to serve Lu Hao, and hurriedly went to find her father, wanting to discuss the arms business with him in detail.

Lu Hao originally wanted to contact the spies in Haojing City, but now he is not in a hurry, but wants to see what Su Xingyue means.

If the head of the Su family is unwilling to do this business and Su Yifei has no channels, this arms business will probably go bad.

The head of the Su family, Su Xingyue, founded the Xingyue Chamber of Commerce and has been doing business with major dynasties in the Western Regions. Each of these dynasties' courts has its own channels and connections.

Therefore, as long as he is willing to do this business, he can definitely get it done.

In the study of the head of the Su family, Su Yifei walked in slowly and bowed slightly to greet her father.

"Yifei, I heard that you went to discuss business today and your elder brother cut you off?"

Su Xingyue asked with a smile.

"Brother is well-informed. I lost that business because of my negligence. I can't blame anyone."

Su Yifei responded calmly.

"Hahaha……"

Su Xingyue laughed and said: "Well, very good. Don't be arrogant in victory and don't be discouraged in defeat. You are much calmer now. I am very pleased to be a father."

"Thank you father for your teaching! My daughter came here so late because she has a big business that needs dad's help."

Su Yifei said in a deep voice.

"Oh... big deal? What big deal? As long as my father can help, I will definitely help you."

Su Xingyue became interested.

"My daughter has a batch of military supplies and needs to do business with the Ministry of War of the Zhou Dynasty. I hope dad can help contact Mr. Wang Mingren, the logistics and quartermaster of the Ministry of War."

Su Yifei did not hide her father's secrets, she directly told him frankly.

"Military supplies? That Mr. Wang Mingren, didn't dad take you to see him? Just go find him yourself."

Su Xingyue said in confusion.

"Dad, the military supplies this time are different from those in the past. Mr. Wang Mingren cannot make the decision. My daughter wants to meet the Minister of War of the Zhou Dynasty through him."

Su Yifei explained.

"What? You want to see the Minister of War?"

Su Xingyue was shocked.

"Yes, since the military supplies this time include war horses and chariots, bed crossbows, platoon crossbows, and large trebuchets, we must meet with the Minister of War to discuss it."

Su Yifei nodded slightly and added in detail.

"What? A large trebuchet? Where...where did you get it?"

Su Xingyue was stunned.
