1717 New American Empire

Chapter 26 Preparing for the Market

The matter of encircling and suppressing wild beasts has come to an end for the time being. More than 60 wild dogs, more than 100 wild wolves and seven cheetahs are Xiao Lin's harvest for the time being. The death of nearly 200 carnivorous beasts has caused the appearance of more than 60 wild dogs within a radius of five miles of the camp.

A short period of tranquility. After a period of logging and construction, the prototype of a market has appeared in the camp. The market trading activities that Xiao Lin has always envisioned can finally be carried out. Well, to be honest, Xiao Lin really has no money.

Already.

Pay wages to workers, buy daily necessities, and purchase various raw materials for forging weapons and armor. After that, you need to buy new machinery and equipment, repair several factories that have been closed for a long time, and recruit new people. If you want to develop, you need funds.

At least they are all in tens of millions. If you want to support an eighteenth-century empire, the investment may have to be in hundreds of millions. In order to obtain enough money as soon as possible, this market must be opened

Already.

In the later stage, furs and gold can no longer be Xiao Lin's main source of funds, but in the early stage of development, these things are still the main support. Xiao Lin has prepared a lot of things for this market event. It is extremely convenient.

instant noodles and cans, the same compound bows and Tang knives as those held by the warriors of the Eagle Tribe, iron pots and pans, the best-selling fruit knives in the Eagle Tribe, and sportswear and labor protection uniforms worn by white people.

All.

This time, another two hundred Eagle Tribe warriors were hired by Xiao Lin as soldiers to maintain law and order at the market. There are still seven small Indian tribes nearby, including the Eagle Tribe. The most powerful tribe

, there are only more than 170 warriors. The Eagle Tribe is the most powerful. As long as the Eagle Tribe stands firmly on Xiao Lin's side, there is no fear that other tribes will dare to steal things in the market.

Those seven tribes also relied on the notification from the warriors of the Eagle Tribe to know that a huge market would be opened from the first to the seventh day of November. The warriors of the Eagle Tribe who went to notify all brought their

Some of the goods for display aroused the interest of other tribes. Some of them had also traded with white people, but the white people's goods were both fewer and worse in type and quality than the goods prepared by Xiao Lin.

The price is much higher than the price Xiao Lin set.

In this way, all the tribes have packed up all the fur reserves in the tribe, and they have also taken out the gold ones, and are preparing to buy goods at the market. There are still ten days left, Xiao Lin seizes the time to organize the camp. The total planning

In addition to the thirteen large stalls, five of them are used to prevent the goods prepared by Xiao Lin. The other eight are prepared for the eight Indian tribes, including the Eagle Tribe.

In addition to fur and gold, there are actually many things that can be traded among these tribes. Each tribe can make wood carvings, necklaces and other ornaments with similar but not identical styles. Although these ornaments have a lot of artificial

The carving marks are only as smooth as those machine-polished, but the unique charm still looks very good. Xiao Lin purchased some of these things from the Eagle Tribe before and gave them away in the 21st century. Everyone liked them very much and the feeling is still very good.

Something unique and thoughtful.

Xiao Lin has an idea to open an online store in the 21st century, decorate these and package them into mid-to-high-end small gifts for sale. Because he is not sure that they will be 100% popular, Xiao Lin only plans to buy two hundred pieces for the time being to give it a try.

Water. In addition, the Eagle Tribe also has their unique paralytic medicine specially used to deal with ferocious beasts. The Fierce Dog Tribe’s ointment that is said to be an aphrodisiac has sold very well in the past, but Xiao Lin seriously doubts this

What on earth is that black lump of stuff?

The American continent is also very rich in vegetable and fruit resources, including corn, sweet potato, jicama, potato, cassava, pumpkin, peanut, sunflower, pepper, tomato, kidney bean, lima bean, apple, pineapple, cherimoya, guava, oil

There are nearly 30 kinds of pear, cashew nut, cocoa, American ginseng, papaya, upland cotton, tobacco, etc. The most valuable is wild American ginseng. Although its nourishing ability is not as good as that of ginseng, it is also a mid-to-high-end nourishing medicine.

Here, among the eight tribes, one tribe knew the health-preserving effects of American ginseng and consciously tried to grow American ginseng. These things can be sold at a good price in the 21st century. Corn, potatoes and other high-yielding crops are

Not to mention, if you buy them as seeds and plant them using modern methods, you can harvest enough staple food later. Xiao Lin only needs to bring some seasonings from the 21st century that could not be made in the 18th century. This can also reduce the transportation pressure and can make more food.

Bring something useful.

Peanuts and sunflowers are also very good to buy and use for oil extraction. Oil extraction is not difficult. Just buy a diesel engine from the 21st century and match it with some household-grade oil presses. These things are not complicated to operate and can be used for oil extraction.

The quality of the oil produced is also much better than that produced in other countries in the 18th century. It can also be used as a flagship product of Xiao Lin in the future. As for fruits, you can also pay attention to them. After the industrial system is established, you can also make your own fruits.

The canned food must have been very popular among the crew members on the voyage.

For ten days, Xiao Lin took Apache and Pearl together to price the things he wanted. It couldn't be too tricky, but it also had to be profitable enough. Moreover, the cost of the goods in Xiao Lin's hands could not be exceeded for the time being.

Patch and Pearl knew that the Eagle Tribe had no sign of surrendering to Xiao Lin and could not be considered one of its own. Apache and Pearl could only help him summarize the prices they had traded on their own before.

After being busy for so long, the day finally came when the market opened. Outside the camp surrounded by a two-meter-high fence, hundreds of Indians with horses had gathered. On each horse were various kinds of people.

Such trading goods include furs, gold, fruits and vegetables. Two hundred Eagle Tribe warriors are also ready. They will be divided into ten teams, with twenty people in each team, to serve as patrols in and around the market.

Some of Xiao Lin's white people are literate and serve as coordinating market managers, and some prepare goods and food to provide logistical support. The white soldiers stand guard at Xiao Lin's stall to prevent anyone from seeing too many goods and thinking too much.

Have to grab it hard.

"Ahem, the market is open!"

Following Xiao Lin's order, several Eagle Tribe warriors stepped forward and pushed open the door. Indians one after another hurriedly tried to squeeze in, but were stopped by the Eagle Tribe warriors, and the order was slowly stabilized.
