Gu Yunyang then handled the requests from the other two black markets.
Unexpectedly, both black markets also demanded a meeting.
Gu Yunyang went to each of them, still thinking to himself, "They're probably all asking for the same thing as Hou San."
When I got there, I found that their requirements were indeed similar.
After some thought, Gu Yunyang felt that Gu Bei was relatively simple-minded, and since Gu Bei didn't have someone like Tie Ta around him, and hadn't directly tested him, it wouldn't be a bad idea to give Gu Bei a little help.
This was originally his plan to support three black markets.
If either party breaks the rules, he can suppress them.
Promoting Gu Bei is tantamount to suppressing Hou San.
"Yes, I can give you thirty tons of grain each time. However, it won't all be refined grain; refined grain will only make up twenty percent of it, and the transaction will be conducted every four days."
Gu Yunyang hadn't specified the grain ratio in the document he gave Hou San before.
However, according to the rules, it is impossible for it to be entirely made of refined grains.
Refined grains will not exceed 30%.
This time, he gave Hou San more refined grains, but the total amount was less than that given to Gu Bei.
This way, both of them can be considered taken care of.
Gu Bei has a slight advantage.
When it comes to saving lives, who cares about refined grains versus coarse grains?
Being able to fill one's stomach is the most important thing.
Gu Bei was surprised and excited that Gu Yunyang was so helpful. He immediately took out a bag of good antiques: "These are small items, some jewelry or ornaments. Our boss has instructed us to increase our business with you. We will give you priority access to the items we have."
Some people would rather hold onto more gold.
As for gemstones such as jade and agate, they are not valued as much.
Gu Yunyang nodded: "Sure, we're planning to get more stuff from Russia soon. By the way, we got a batch of sweet potatoes somewhere in China, and they'll be shipped over gradually. The total is a thousand tons. Can you handle it all?"
In return for the favor, Gu Yunyang naturally wouldn't hold back either, since the other party had been so helpful.
Besides, it's not like it's being given away for free.
Gu Bei was very sensible; he knew they liked antiques, so he gave them this batch today.
Gu Yunyang glanced at them casually and noticed that the jade and jadeite had good translucency, suggesting they were likely from old mines.
As for forgery, that possibility cannot be ruled out.
But Gu Yunyang believed that Gu Bei wouldn't dare to do that, since it wasn't like they would never see each other again after just one transaction.
Their business requires long-term commitment.
If Gu Bei lies once, can they still expect Gu Yunyang to continue cooperating with them in the future?
Gu Bei was clearly terrified by his thousand tons.
Gu Bei clearly hadn't expected these people to be so powerful.
One thousand tons, what does that mean?
Even sweet potatoes are not a minority.
Is a train about that much?
A single train carriage can only carry about sixty tons of sweet potatoes. A freight train would need twenty carriages to be considered able to fit them all.
But thinking about it, it's impossible. Even if these people have extensive connections, it's impossible to just conjure up a train for them to transport goods out of thin air.
So how exactly did they manage to transport the goods to the capital?
This question flashed through Gu Bei's mind.
Gu Yunyang glanced at him with amusement and said, "Our people just met with another group. They also cooperate with Hou San and his group."
We originally planned to give them a larger quantity, since we could carve out a portion from places like Shanghai. However, Hou San is very dishonest; he keeps trying to find out what we're capable of.
