1717 New American Empire

Abel set foot on this strange land for the first time. Even though he knew that this was a civilized force, he couldn't help but feel a little uneasy. In his previous understanding, the Indians were savage and bloodthirsty demons, but he never expected that one day,

, they can also have things that white people don’t have. Half a month ago, as a well-known profiteer in New York City, Abel was arrested by soldiers on charges of selling counterfeit goods. Abel almost thought he was going to die, but unexpectedly,

The mayor of New York actually met with him.

New York Mayor Abraham gave him two choices, one was the gallows, and the other was to lead a caravan here to do business. Abel naturally chose the second option. As the saying goes, it is better to die than to live. Who is willing to go there if he can live?

Die. Abraham prepared a caravan for Abel. There were thirty people in total, all of Abraham's elite warriors. Of course, there was also one carriage of gold coins and five carriages of iron ore and saltpeter, among other resources.

Along the way, Abel almost died of exhaustion. Abraham's thirty men were all strong soldiers, and they basically didn't need much rest along the way. If it weren't for the fact that Abel needed to use his own expertise to bargain with the opponent and take care of him a little,

Abel is really mortal. As

The first caravan to arrive at the first town of Yanhuang Trade, they were naturally picked up by the escort soldiers who were trained in lurking and part-time as secret sentries. If Abel hadn't been clever, he quickly explained his purpose and showed off the belongings he had brought.

They also had to be treated like James and his friends when they came here for the first time.

It was also because of the arrival of Abel and others that Xiao Lin sent out manpower and determined that there were at least thirteen caravans on the way to the town. A company of soldiers set up a checkpoint at the place where the soldiers had been lurking for training to inspect the caravans.

No contraband such as muskets, swords, and drugs could be released. Abel, because he was attacked by the escort soldiers, received compensation from Xiao Lin and stayed in a guest house opened by the company for three days for free.

At first, Abel was curious about the guest house's novel items such as toilets, showers, running hot water, and Simmons beds. He was also happy because he could enjoy it for free for three days. But later, he became a little anxious. One after another

When a caravan arrives, they are all colonizers

The team was led by a cunning businessman in the field. Abel saw many old faces, especially one named Alva, who once defeated him in the mall. With so many competitors, if he failed to complete Abraham's mission in the end, he would

He was easily crushed to death by the thirty people accompanying him.

Abel found the official who had received them before and asked when they would start talking about business. The official was annoyed by his questions and had no choice but to report it. This was not Xiao Lin's attempt to show off or delay, but something on display at the trade fair.

The types of goods must be determined, and the prices must be determined. It is really too busy. The caravan is impatient to wait, so Xiao Lin can only accept the supplies brought by these people first. All the goods brought by the caravan will be collected by the Ministry of Commerce.

The officials appraised it one by one.

The price is naturally a normal and reasonable price in the colony, and the caravans are also satisfied. People from the Ministry of Commerce can provide pounds or Yanhuang coins, and the company's trade is only settled in these two currencies. Whether it is pounds or Yanhuang coins,

Xiao Lin printed them all by himself using the technology provided by the King of Counterfeit Banknotes, and he could get as many as he wanted. Xiao Lin and several young people did not have much knowledge in economics, so Xiao Lin invited Yan Li to come out. There was no plan for currency issuance, and currency depletion occurred.

Expansion is bad.

After the busy work here is over, things for the trade fair are also ready. The old market, which had been sealed up before and was being demolished and rebuilt into a residential area, is now using its residual heat. More than thirty stalls are filled with goods, and each stall is also full of goods.

There were at least three people responsible for the introduction. Abel was followed by several guards, and he and nineteen merchants crowded at the entrance of the market. As soon as it opened, they crowded in. With the help of the guards provided by Abraham, Abel cleaned up this time.

He hit Avar and pushed him to the back.

As soon as he entered the market, Abel was attracted by the products on each stall. Xiao Lin arranged the products in the order of clothing, food, housing and transportation. The products near the gate were "clothing". On the left is men's clothing, a retro-style tuxedo suit.

, modern style business suits as well as casual

There are all kinds of suits, and watches as men's accessories are naturally indispensable. On the right, there are women's clothing, 21st century design style underwear, various beautiful skirts, women's suits, sexy shorts and miniskirts. There is even a stall.

It specializes in selling sexy lingerie.

These women's clothes are a bit bold, but they are still very popular in the company. Especially some men, who specialize in selling shoes and sexy clothes to their wives and girlfriends, and then have sex every night. They are some people who only have inflatable girlfriends

, and bought a lot of them. Among them, the most popular ones are stockings. Stockings have six major advantages: they modify the legs, protect from the sun, reduce the pressure on leg veins, prevent edema, keep cold and warm, and prevent pants from sticking when sweating.

body.

Since Xiao Lin introduced silk stockings, every woman in the company between the ages of 16 and 35 has bought several pairs. Xiao Lin believes that these items will also be very popular among white people. Although the company cannot yet produce silk stockings,

But it occupies a small space and the profit is huge. Xiao Lin didn't find any models. There are all kinds of pictures in the 21st century, so he just made a model board.

Abel was no longer a junior brother. He stood in front of the stall with a dozen of experienced veterans, commenting on the model board and all kinds of sexy and non-sexy underwear, which made several junior brothers in the escort blush and be at a loss. Ready-to-wear

The denim clothes from the manufacturer are also a good product. They are strong and reliable, and the style is good. They are suitable for work. Both Abel and Avar bought a lot of tight jeans because they can show off the graceful curves of women.

Alibaba also sold a lot of quantities.

After clothes, of course comes food. What Xiao Lin sells are all kinds of condiments. Thirteen spices, cumin powder, chili sauce, refined salt, monosodium glutamate, chicken essence and soy sauce and vinegar are all available. The production of these things is not complicated, and the related technology is

Xiao Lin has found or bought it, and the workshop has to be built. There is no need to demonstrate cooking, just put it there and explain its function, and the people in the caravan will start to follow it.

In this era, navigation was not very safe and fast, and many spices could only be enjoyed by the nobles. They did not expect that there were so many delicious condiments made from a variety of spices, especially thirteen spices and MSG chicken essence.

, 10,000 bags (500 grams per bag) were completed at the beginning

). Of course, the existence of instant noodles and canned food is also indispensable. They are all products of canneries, and the taste is a bit worse, but it is enough. Bread and the like cannot be stored for long, even if preservatives are added, in order not to eat people to death,

It can only be kept fresh for more than ten days. Vacuum preservation is not worth it.

The products for accommodation can be said to be the least, and all they sell are tents and sleeping bags. Moreover, they are all second-class products produced by the company's garment manufacturing factory. They were originally intended for use by the escort team, but no matter how they were improved, they all failed.

Still better than civilian tents in the 21st century

It was worse than a sleeping bag. Xiao Lin did not intend to waste the quantity of three thousand, so he took it out directly and planned to sell it to the white people. Although it was inferior goods, it was still better than what all the white troops used now. For those troops

Being a guard has a strong appeal.

There were also some stalls selling 21st-century style furniture made in wood processing factories. The style was light and simple, yet luxurious at the same time. Representatives of the nobility also bought a lot, preparing to transport them back to flatter the masters behind them.

In terms of transportation, of course, Xiao Lin has released all kinds of bicycles. Ordinary bicycles, shopping basket bicycles, children's bicycles, mountain cross-country bicycles and three-wheel cargo bicycles are all placed in a series of stalls. Xiao Lin's next step is,

I plan to equip the escort with better electric vehicles and diesel motorcycles. Regarding electricity, the company's power plant will gradually be able to meet the demand. As for diesel, as long as it is not used every day, there will not be too much pressure to buy it from the 21st century.

Bicycles are a new thing, and no one in the caravan has ever seen them. The Charles family bought a few, but they have all been digested internally. The bicycles Xiao Lin put out were all used by the company. The appearance has been renovated.

Sold directly as a new product, a refurbished ordinary bicycle,

Xiao Lin dared to sell it for seventy pounds, so he could really be called a black-hearted businessman. Businessmen such as Abel tried riding one after another. Several guards with military backgrounds learned how to ride in ten minutes because they had good control of body balance.

Then after a while, I kept praising this kind of two-wheeled car.

Abel, too, ordered a hundred cars at the request of the accompanying escort. If he were not afraid of not being able to take them, he would buy more. For three consecutive days, the entire old market was full of bargaining from eight o'clock in the morning to ten o'clock in the evening.

Sound. What if the caravan brought only some iron ore and saltpeter?

There is really not enough money for the raw materials. However, many caravans carry a large number of gold coins. Xiao Lin can treat these gold coins as antiques and auction them in the 21st century, because they are not new. Xiao Lin found that many of them are rare on the market.

The gold coin style will definitely have a good price.

And even if they didn't bring gold coins, they also brought a lot of antique oil paintings. Xiao Lin could make a lot by paying according to the market conditions in the 18th century. The white people also knew that this time it would strengthen the Yanhuang Trading Company, but they didn't

I thought that the magnitude of the enhancement would be that

It's so big. They don't know that what they exchanged for a large number of treasures are things that are not rare in the lousy streets of the 21st century, and even homeless people are not very rare. Xiao Lin has made a lot of money. After the things here are settled,

I immediately returned to the 21st century with these things.
