Kapitel 24: Chapter 24 Market Saturation
After considering for a moment, Guo Siyu decided not to hide the truth: "We'll package a small portion of these Gold Coins, but most of them will be melted down
and remade. It's mainly to maintain appearances. So I'm not cheating you, I'll give you a price of four hundred."
"At that price, you guys probably won't make much."
In the past few days, Zhao Guang had also learned to observe people's expressions. Guo Siyu had good control, but the experts did not. From the experts' reactions, it seemed that he hadn't tricked himself too badly.
It couldn't be helped, after all, he had no channels nor an understanding of the market.
Luckily, he had acquired them all at a low price, otherwise, he would indeed be cluelessly cheated by them.
"Initially, this is to open up the market, later purchases will not have such a high price. And I'm giving you this price because I hope we can continue to collaborate in the future."
"Then here's to a pleasant collaboration. By the way, how much more do you need?"
"We don't need any more for now. The market can't absorb too much Gold; it would be best to keep it to every six months or so. If we decide to open more branches, I'll inform you in advance and give you a call."
Is the market already saturated? Wasn't Gold supposed to retain its value, easily converted into cash?
It seems I know too little, without this channel, should I collaborate with other people?
No, once the market is saturated, it makes no difference where I go for collaboration. Also, collaborating with too many people might expose myself. It seems I can't keep doing this business forever.
"I understand, message me when you need more."
After completing the transaction, Zhao Guang did not leave immediately but inquired about some aspects of the Gold jewelry industry.
Guo Siyu could tell Zhao Guang was unfamiliar, so he shared some information. But before long, Zhao Guang noticed that Guo Siyu frequently glanced at his watch, seeming to be in a hurry.
"Haha, I have other matters to attend to, so I'll leave first."
Zhao Guang quickly excused himself and, rejecting offers from others to send him off, left on his own.
Regardless, he now had sufficient funds, and he was ready to get started on the next steps.
"Indeed, once money reaches a certain amount, it really just becomes a string of numbers. But these numbers are truly a pleasing sight to behold." He admired it for quite a time until a phone call brought him back to reality.
"Hello, is this Mr. Zhao? Your company registration has passed, please come over to sign the documents."
This was good news. "Wait a moment, I'm on my way."
The company he had applied for was completed, exactly two of them. One was his shell company, the I Am Human Company, and the other an overseas company called You Are Not Human Company.
Indeed, the names were very grounded.
The latter company was something Zhao Guang thought of later on. After all, he needed a source for his Gold. Otherwise, while taxes would be higher, he could also attract unwanted attention.
Because the Gold couldn't possibly appear out of nowhere.
Thus, it wasn't that he was unwilling to pay more taxes; certain things could not be exposed.
After signing the documents, the two companies were officially established. As for the financial aspects of the companies, they were simple and Zhao Guang dealt with them quickly. (Please do not nitpick)
Having taken care of everything, Zhao Guang did not wait around and directly headed to the tax office.
Then he felt light and relieved, truly comfortable. He had also become someone who could contribute to the country's tax revenues.
"Comfortable, let's head back—wait, there's one more thing." Zhao Guang suddenly remembered that he had another business related to arrows. It took some effort, but Zhao Guang found a props factory.
It was a factory specifically manufacturing props. As for a weapons factory, that didn't require consideration; such a factory wouldn't exist.
Soon, Zhao Guang met the person in charge. "Hello, my name is Zhao Guang, I want to buy a batch of props."
"Hello, I am Liu Mo, let's talk in my office."
Once they were seated, Zhao Guang got straight to the point: "I need a hundred thousand arrows, just like this one."
He had brought samples with him. Liu Mo took the arrows from Zhao Guang's hand: "Three feathers per arrow, that's unusual. These are modeled after combat arrows, right? The craftsmanship seems handmade."
The rough look made Liu Mo frown; these definitely weren't machine-made.
"Just like that, can you do it?"
"What material would you like, carbon steel, or ceramic? Different materials come at different prices."
"What's the cheapest material?" Zhao Guang asked directly.
A hint of confusion flashed in Liu Mo's eyes: "The cheapest is plastic, are these for filming?"
"Haha, almost, but plastic definitely won't do; the arrowhead needs to be metal. If the arrow shaft is plastic, will it affect normal use?"
"You actually intend to shoot it. In that case, there's no problem. The plastic shafts we have now are even better than the wooden ones. The arrowheads will be made of ordinary steel, which tends to rust over time, but that's the only issue."
Zhao Guang pointed to the arrow: "Ordinary steel, how does it compare to this one?"
"This? The smelting level of this one is very poor. I looked earlier, and it's just a bit better than pig iron."
In front of a client, Liu Mo tried to be diplomatic as the product really wasn't that great. If it were to be compared closely, it might even be worse than some of the pig iron.
Ultimately, it wasn't a weapon, just a consumable, so as long as it could be used once, that was enough.
"Then I'm reassured. Make this one with a bit more precision."
Liu Mo muttered under his breath: "They can't be sharpened."
"I understand, unsharpened ones are just for show, right?"
Liu Mo was momentarily speechless; was that what he meant? What he meant was, to sharpen them would cost extra. But seeing Zhao Guang's demeanor, he let it go. Some things were better left unsaid.
"Price-wise, I can do six yuan each."
"I'm buying in bulk, and I might buy more in the future. Can you make the price a bit more honest, how about four yuan each?"
"That won't work, I'd be at a loss at four yuan. Let's meet halfway as friends, five yuan each."
Zhao Guang knew the other party was making a profit but didn't bother with the specifics. "Then it's a deal." The two shook hands, and a purchase contract was signed.
With the arrows sorted out, it was now time to take care of transportation and his personal security.
Every visit, he never knew what the situation on the other side would be like; this time, he had to resolve that.
"Let's see, a specialized outdoor surveillance camera, good, there's a shop nearby." Zhao Guang found the shop and drove there directly. Having a car made things convenient at times, especially when he was wandering around aimlessly.
