0340: Is It So Profitable?
In the early morning of the next day, Yuege City ushered in a heavy snowfall, and there were many slaves clearing the snow on the main avenue.
The port was also very lively in the morning. The handymen and porters had already started to move the goods, and the merchants were heading towards the inner city in their carriages.
Qiao Ji got up today to exercise and eat breakfast as usual, and then left Kogmo restaurant with Lei Nai and others.
He planned to stay in Yuege City for one more day, and he hadn't fully understood the situation of the city yet.
"Master, where are we going?" Lei Nai asked curiously.
The black cat girl didn't sleep well last night, the dark circles under her eyes are a bit obvious today, and she looks listless without the vivacity of yesterday.
Go to the trading market in Yuege City to have a look. " Qiao Ji raised his eyebrows slightly.
Last night, he had someone specifically ask the restaurant waiter about the buying and selling market. After all, Yuege City is a big trading city, and the shops on both sides of the "--Seven" main avenue alone cannot absorb so many commodities.
A super big city that gathers so many caravans definitely needs a place for the caravans to resell their goods, so the existence of a trading market is very necessary.
This is a bit similar to the trading market on the other side of the earth, where everything is sold, and what you want to buy can be found in the big bazaar.
"Okay." Renai said with a yawn.
"Tap Tat Tat"
Under the guard of the Dragon Shadow Knight Battalion, Qiao Ji and others rode a carriage to a trading market in the east of Yuege City.
The trading market in Yuege City covers a large area, which is as big as three football fields, and it was expanded ten years ago.
Originally, the Yuege City Trading Market was opened in Crescent Moon Square. As this super big city developed better and better, more and more caravans came, and the square obviously couldn't accommodate so many people.
Standing in front of the entrance of the trading market, Lei Nai looked up at the seven big characters of Yuege City Trading Market, and then looked down at the dark crowd inside.
She slowly put on the treasured line controller, and said worriedly, "My lord, there are too many people inside, right?"
"Everyone gathers here to resell goods, there will definitely be more people." Qiao Ji reached out and rubbed the black cat girl's head.
He showed a warm smile and said lightly, "It's okay, even if someone wants to do something, they can't do it.
The fact is also the same, they have four treasures on their bodies now, except for the invisibility cloak and the anti-shock shield, which are not offensive treasures, the line controller and the storm sword are very lethal.
What's more, there are two teams from the Dragon Shadow Knight Battalion following, and there is no chance for others to do it.
"Yes." Lei Nai still did not dare to relax his vigilance.
"Tap Tat Tat..."
Everyone stepped into the trading market, and as soon as they entered, they saw that the stalls inside were arranged neatly and orderly.
From the gate of the trading market, there is an avenue running through to the end. There are stalls on both sides of the avenue, and there are gaps between each stall.
If you look down from the sky, the trading market in Yuege City is as neat and orderly as a Go board.
"Master, I saw someone selling paper." Lei Nai pointed to a stall on the left front of the avenue.
I saw that the things placed on the booth were all sold in the Four Treasures of the Imperial Capital Study, such as paper towels, white paper, pens, and paper bags.
The sharp-eyed Lei Nai pointed to the front right again, and said in surprise, "My lord, there is a perfume stall over there.
"Lei Nai, go and ask the price." Qiao Ji wanted to see how much the industry's things were sold in Yuege City.
"Yes." Lei Nai's early morning haze dissipated at this moment, and he ran over curiously.

When the black cat girl came to the booth, she saw a kind-hearted uncle, who was warmly entertaining the guests around the booth.
"How do you sell your products?" Lei Nai asked coldly.
The stall owner picked up a pack of paper towels with a smile on his face, and introduced, "This is a good thing that can replace a handkerchief. Wipe your little hands after eating and washing..."
Shops of the Four Treasures of the Study now rarely sell paper towels one by one. Ten sheets are stacked together and wrapped in ordinary paper to form a pack of paper towels.
Because it is also convenient to carry out, more people buy it, and everyone will buy some and put them in their carry-on bags.
Of course, there are also paper towels that are used in large quantities, that is, the ones stacked with thirty or forty sheets, but the price will be more expensive.
The paper towels sold by the stall owner are small and compact, that is, there are only ten paper towels in a pack.
Lei Nai couldn't help but twitched the corners of his mouth when he heard the boss's exaggerated introduction, and interrupted him directly and asked, just tell me how much money it is.
"A pack of tissues costs twenty-three copper coins." The stall owner introduced with a smile on his lips.
Lei Nai immediately raised his eyebrows after hearing this, and continued to ask, pretending to be calm, "What about the blank paper? How much is a coin?"
"A piece of blank paper needs three copper coins, how many do you need?" The stall owner went to get the blank paper after speaking.
"No need, how much money does that pen cost?" Lei Nai waved his hand.
The smile on the stall owner's face became even wider, and he rubbed his little hands and introduced, "The quantity of these pens is very small, and it is difficult to buy even in the imperial capital, so you need ten silver coins each.
"I'll think about it again." After speaking, Lei Nai turned and left, and immediately came to the stall selling spring water.
She barely squeezed into the crowd, pointed to a bottle of perfume and asked, "How much is this bottle of perfume?"
There are not many perfumes on the perfume booth, only five bottles of perfume, but there are too many people around the booth.
"Now is the auction period. This bottle of perfume has been auctioned for six gold coins and eight silver coins. Would you like to come and bid for it?" the owner of the perfume booth asked.
After hearing this, Lei Nai couldn't help but rolled his eyes, turned around and squeezed out of the crowd to Qiao Ji.
She looked back at the two stalls and sighed, "My lord, they are all very expensive.
"How to say?" Qiao Ji asked curiously.
"A pack of our paper towels only sells for ten copper coins in the imperial capital, but it costs twenty-three copper coins a pack in the market." Lei Nai pouted.
"The resale price will indeed be higher, what about the others?" Qiao Ji continued to ask.
"I asked about the price of the steel 4.4 pen. Our ordinary pen sold for one silver coin for ten silver coins, and the white paper was also sold for one copper coin." Lei Ya said slowly.
Lian Xin frowned slightly, and sighed, "So you can make so much money by reselling the master's goods?"
Hu Er Niang saw that there were people in front of the two stalls, and there were not a few people who bought them, and there were even a lot of people rushing to buy them.
"What about the price of the perfume?" Qiao Ji asked.
"Perfume is sold in the form of auction. Whoever gives the highest price will sell it to whoever. Now it has been auctioned for six gold coins and eight silver coins." Lei Nai felt that these merchants were a bit exaggerated.
Qiao Ji nodded thoughtfully, and said softly, "After the production volume increases, we can form a caravan to sell goods in Yuege City."
