"The foreigner pulled a shipload of Western goods and wanted to sell them to the Qing Dynasty in exchange for raw silk, porcelain and other goods, but the throughput of the sea ship was too large, and a shipload of goods was calculated by tens of tons or even hundreds of tons, and it was not so easy for him to make a move, and few merchants could swallow all the goods in one bite......"

"At this time, they need two kinds of help, one is distribution, which requires a lot of contacts, and the other is short-term loan services, after all, the cash in the hands of merchants is always limited, and if they want to make a big deal, they need to borrow!"

"Lotte and Lotte Bank actually provide two kinds of services, and the scale is very large, no matter how many goods you have, even if you have a fleet, as long as the goods are good and profitable, you can get the services of foreign banks and banks, that's why Ryukyu is so prosperous, so those maritime merchants would rather make less money to cooperate with Ryukyu......"

Someone asked, "Your Majesty, do you know what the transaction volume of the Ryukyus will be at the end of this day, and how much money will Lotte & Co. lend?"

Jae Chun shook his head, "That's someone's trade secret, even if I'm the emperor, I won't tell me...... However, we can estimate that the average value of a merchant ship from the West or North America is about 600,000 silver coins, and the number of merchant ships that the Ryukyu dock can handle every day is about 50, and the rest of the ships will have to wait in line......

"In this way, the value of the goods handled by Ryukyu in a day is about 30 million silver coins, and almost half of the funds need to be borrowed, which means that Lotte Bank and its partner banks must prepare a reserve of 15 million to 20 million silver coins every day......

"Impossible!" Feng Fu screamed in fright, and the two old ladies who were buying oranges next to him rolled the oranges in their baskets to the ground.

"You are a boy who lacks morality, you are so disrespectful to the elderly, you almost scared me out of a heart attack...... Oops, he's still dragging his braids, no wonder, the kid who was taught by the barbarians is just uneducated......"

Feng Fuqi's nose was about to be crooked, he came out of the Hanlin on the right path of the imperial examination, and he learned the subtle words and righteousness of a sage, and today he was actually scolded as uneducated!

Several other officials knew that this was Ryukyu and that it was not a ruthless Qing Dynasty, so they hurriedly ran over and picked up the oranges for the old lady, and then paid for them vigorously.

The group hurriedly walked a few steps and turned to another secluded neighborhood, where there were teahouses and taverns one by one, and it was actually a food street in the Ryukyus.

Jae-chun took out his pocket watch and looked at it, it was just a little past eleven o'clock, he smiled and said to Master Weng, "I have a treat today, and I haven't eaten yet, hurry up and grab the treasure chest seat......"

"Don't be in a hurry, there is a place for such a street!" Weng Tonggong said.

"Oh, my good master, don't you know how rich Ryukyu is here, don't look at this street is full of restaurants, teahouses, and there are hundreds of them, and they are all small buildings with two or three floors, but you look at it, and now I guess I have already booked out all the private rooms......"

"Let's talk about something, we can't go to the hall, hurry up and ......" Jaechun can be regarded as seeing his mother's family today, and he doesn't need to serve them in the senior year, he has become the master's errand.

The little emperor of the restaurant rushed in happily, and then walked out disappointed, shook his head, which meant that there was no private room, and then found the next one, shaking his head.

Time passed minute by minute, and after asking more than a dozen people, I found that the passenger flow on the street had increased significantly, and the halls of many restaurants began to sit open, and the seats had already opened at half past eleven.

The air is full of the umami of seafood, as well as the fragrance of fruits, coupled with the sound of fried and fried oil, which together directly arouses the cravings in everyone's stomach.

On the sea, people have little appetite because of seasickness, and even the best cook's meal has no taste, and now everyone is used to the uncomfortable feeling of seasickness, and their feet are on the solid ground, and people remember that they have not eaten a decent meal for several days.

Jaechun scratched his head and said that I am going to lose face today? I can't spend money to treat guests as much as I want to be a landlord, and in the end he gritted his teeth and stomped his feet, strode in front of a pineapple vendor, glared at him and shouted, "Go find me a private room, you must arrange all my guests......

"Oops...... What do you mean, this guest officer? I'm just a pineapple seller......."

", why are you buying glass? You think I don't know you're from the Intelligence Bureau? I pretend I don't know you're kicking your nose in the face? Go find me a seat ......."

The face of the vendor who bought the glass was red and white, and finally he stomped his foot and threw down the pineapple stall and ran away, and Jae-chun picked a few cut pineapples and skewered them with bamboo skewers and gave them to the teacher and officials.

"Actually, the master doesn't have to worry about my white dragon fish suit, the prime minister has actually always had an action team secretly protecting me, since I was frightened in Osaka, I obviously feel that the manpower of that team is increasing exponentially......"

Feng Fu took a bite of the pineapple fiercely, "Protection, I think it's imprisonment! He Xiao Lotian can still have good intentions......"

The efficiency of the intelligence bureau was really high, and soon a chubby shopkeeper ran out of a restaurant with a Fujian residence, rushing over with a smile on his face like a flower, and said in non-standard official language.

"A few old guests, you are one step higher! I have already seen that you are looking for a meal, and it just so happens that I have three tables booked by distinguished guests, because something has not been done, but you can use it first......"

The boss turned his head to look at Zaichun, his eyes suddenly lit up, and he hit a thousand and knocked it down, "Noble, you are one step higher, please here!"

Fujian Ju is a three-storey small western-style building with red bricks and blue tiles, taking a combination of Chinese and Western styles, in Xiao Letian's eyes, this style is somewhat nondescript, but in the hearts of people at that time, this is a trendy style that can not be more trendy.

The sound of the wooden staircase, the aroma of the mixed dishes in the restaurant seduced the gluttonous worms in people's stomachs, and when they reached the third floor, there were three tables in the entire spacious hall, and the tables, chairs and benches were completely arranged according to the number of people in their group.

Weng opened the window and found that the food court was actually built on an upward hillside road, and this restaurant was at the highest point, and from here, a large area of the city could be seen diagonally.

The streets, the flow of people, the well-planned neighborhoods, and the blue water in the distance make for an exotic atmosphere.

The boss doesn't need to be instructed by the guests, knowing that this group of people is not bad for money, and the dishes are like flowing water, and the people in the coastal provinces will naturally have the ability to cook seafood, and Fujian is also very close to the Ryukyus, and the eating habits of the two sides are almost the same.

"The dish is here...... Seven Star Fish Balls, Wuliuju, White Snow Chicken, Min Shengguo, Drunk Pork Ribs, Red Fish Steak...... And Buddha jumping over the wall!"

"Steamed grouper, chicken shredded bird's nest, fresh bamboo clams, fried eel...... Finally, the staple food is recommended Babao red sturgeon rice, which tastes really beautiful!"
