Ye Qianning didn't get a response after she finished speaking. She looked up and saw Gu Shuo carefully looking through the contract she wrote, with a look of slight lack of shock on his face.
Seeing this, she lowered her head and wrote the contract with Loulan.
Nanyuan Aquatic Products is currently flourishing, so it makes sense for her to want to grab a piece of the pie, but Xiliuyuan's attitude makes her unsure.
The seagulls staring at them didn't hear any news. Xiliuyuan seldom left the inn privately and seemed to dislike the sea.
I usually drink tea and read books, and I don’t say a few words a day.
When we were at the port today, it seemed that Xiliuyuan didn't speak much, and it was difficult to hear any news from him.
"You want to trade with the barbarians and the Northern Frontier?" Gu Shuo was shocked after reading the contract.
"And Loulan."
"Loulan? Business in these three places is not easy to do. They all produce and sell their own products. I have never heard of them cooperating with the Four Countries Trading Company." Gu Shuo said as he looked at it again and again and pondered.
The northern border is rich in spices, the barbarians are rich in animal furs, and Loulan is mainly engaged in silk. These items are well-known in the four countries and are relatively expensive.
The contract mentioned a material that is more expensive than Muyunsha. What is it?
"The reason they didn't cooperate is because I didn't have anything to attract them. Northern Xinjiang spices are famous, and Yunxiangxiang is priceless. If I had something that surpassed Yunxiangxiang, they would naturally consider it carefully. The same goes for the Barbarians and Loulan. If their reputation as the top one is suppressed, it would be a huge loss for them. If I teach them how to make it and we supply the raw materials, how could they not agree?"
The reputation was preserved, and more valuable things were produced.
The fame will be greater and the price of the items will be inestimable.
"Raw materials? What materials can be compared with Muyunsha?" Spices Gu Shuo was not that curious.
"Lotus silk."
"Lotus silk?"
"The silk from the lotus stems is extracted and made into cloth and silk."
Gu Shuo was a little confused. How to get the silk from the lotus stem?
Even if we have it, how can we make it into cloth?
"In short, they all require skills and know-how. It's enough for Dad Gu to know that they are precious things." Ye Qianning explained to him, saying that it would be difficult to understand without seeing it with his own eyes.
Gu Shuo thought about it and still felt it was inappropriate: "You said that lotus silk is made from lotus roots. Lotus is very common in the four countries. If you tell them the method of making it, can't they also collect lotus stems from other places?"
"Ordinary lotus roots can also be used to make silk, but if they want to make silk that is more precious than Muyunsha, they must buy it from me." Ye Qianning's lotus is grown in a spiritual spring.
At the moment, she had just enough lotus stems to make ten rolls of lotus silk, and scarcity made things valuable.
When she went to Changqing Mountain, she injected the mountain water into the spiritual spring and cultivated the seeds. The lotus that grew out would be incomparable to ordinary lotus.
Gu Shuo seemed to understand: "Where are the barbarians?"
"The Barbarians are rich in animal furs, but production has been scarce in recent years. If they don't change their business, they won't last ten years."
The barbarians mainly hunt animals. She visited the barbarians some time ago and found that the animals were almost extinct after being hunted for a long time.
"Change industry? Barbarians have lived by hunting since ancient times. Their food growth rate is very low, and they cannot survive by relying on food alone." Gu Shuo couldn't think of what industry the barbarians could do.
Ye Qianning took out a few red fruits and oval fruits from the space: "Dad Gu, do you recognize these two things?"
