Chen Wenhui and her brother had dinner together in the city lord's mansion, and then took the car home, and Wan Meizhen was still waiting for them at home.

Seeing Chen Wenhui and her husband come in together, Wan Meizhen said with a smile on her face, "What is the result of the negotiation?" Well, it must be very good, you see that both of you brothers and sisters are smiling. ”

Chen Wenhui and Chen Wenjun both entered the house with a smile, and then the two siblings began to talk to Wan Meizhen about the negotiation process, of course, hiding the dream of destroying the Wa Kingdom and Chen Wenhui.

After the two brothers and sisters finished speaking, Wan Meizhen said excitedly: "There are so many people in this black family, and the power is so great, it is really hidden very deeply, except for your four major families in our Central Plains, it is estimated that no one can be so powerful to them." We've really got a treasure now. In this way, we will speed up the construction of Xinguang City a lot, and it will definitely be better than the construction of Shanghai City. ”

Chen Wenhui said: "Of course, when Shanghai City was first built, there were no people to ask for money, and everyone was not interested in sea trade, and even many people thought that sea trade could not succeed." We are building Xinguang City now, we have the experience of building Shanghai City, the professionals of the Hei family, a lot of money, and many Da Chu businessmen who have tasted the sweetness, it will definitely be better. You, the lady of the city lord, just use more snacks and build it better. ”

Wan Meizhen smiled and said, "I've never seen a sister-in-law like you, who specializes in making fun of sister-in-law." ”

Chen Wenjun said: "Wen Hui is not wrong to say another point, we now have many better conditions than when Shanghai City was first built, so we have to be more careful, this city is different from Shanghai City, we have the final say in this city, although there are princess housekeepers and Ma family's housekeepers here, but they can only supervise the distribution of money, as for the management and construction of the city, they have no place to speak as subordinates." ”

Wan Meizhen hurriedly said, "Yes." I know that. ”

Chen Wenjun continued: "This time, the Hei family has given us a lot of helpers, and the design and construction of the city will be handed over to those people in the Heigetang, Huamu." They are also in charge of the road design, you just have to say your own requirements, and you can just take care of the accounts. Free up some energy to buy as much land as possible on Yizhou Island, not only the land that can be cultivated, but also those mountains, forests, lakes, and rivers can be bought, this is our family business, although Xinguang City has the final say, but it is still a few businesses. We're only 20 percent. ”

Wan Meizhen said: "This province is from this province, I will start to do these things when I go back." ”

Chen Wenhui said: "Also, my sister-in-law wants to sue the merchants of our Dachu in Xinguang City, and we want to buy the Wa Kingdom and Silla." The people of Goguryeo, both men and women, can have a deed of sale, and can also come to work, anyway, we need people, and there is no limit to the number. ”

Wan Meizhen was puzzled: "Isn't it our own caravan to buy it?" How did it become that the merchants of Da Chu could get people over? ”

Chen Wenhui said: "Our caravan used to have seven ships, but now there are more. There are only 12 ships, and we have to go to Nanyang, to the Wa Kingdom, to Silla, to Goguryeo, and to transport the production of Yizhou Island to Shanghai City for sale. Where do you think we can make room to transport people? But you just listened to the agreement between us and the Black Family, which is based on giving them a large number of manpower, and we are very short of people. Don't talk about the black family, let's talk about our family, we bought a lot of land on Yizhou Island. But now it's still in the wilderness, and we're about to get the disciples of the Black Family's Alchemy Hall to help us manage the long-term work and farm, but what about our long-term labor? We ourselves need a lot. How can we rely on our alone? Therefore, I thought about asking the merchants of Dachu to help us transport people over. You see, our goods are very good to sell in Silla, Goguryeo, and Wa, and the Wa kingdom is fine, and there is silver to pay for, but what about Silla and Goguryeo, their countries are small and poor, how can they trade with us? They wanted to buy things, but they couldn't pay for them, which limited the enthusiasm of our Dachu caravans to Silla and Goguryeo. Now we have opened up new sources of wealth for these three countries, so that they can buy more things, and our merchants in Dachu can make more money, and we will run more to these countries, and our taxes in Shanghai City will be better, so that we will not share a little more money? ”

Wan Meizhen thought for a while and said: "What my sister said is very reasonable, the princes and nobles of Goguryeo and Silla like our goods in Dachu very much, but they are too poor, and they have been trading with us for more than a year, and they have almost exhausted all the specialties they have stocked. Therefore, many merchants of Da Chu are reluctant to go there. ”

Chen Wenjun said: "Having said that, I'm afraid that if you open up and say that you want these three countries, those mercenary businessmen will use illegal means to make money, won't that make these three countries chaotic?" ”

Chen Wenhui pouted and said: "We want to do business, let's make money first, the kings, princes and nobles of these countries don't feel sorry for their people, what do you feel sorry for them?" I'm not afraid of chaos in these countries, the more chaotic the better, so that we can fish in troubled waters. in order to get the maximum benefit. ”

Chen Wenjun suddenly remembered what Chen Wenhui said about her future during the day, so he asked: "Are there Goguryeo and Silla who are bullying us in addition to the Wa Kingdom?" ”

Chen Wenhui said a little: "There are no two countries, but their people are also very bad, and they actually say that Confucius is a person from their country, the Dragon Boat Festival is a festival of their country, and Qu Yuan is a person from their country, which is really annoying." ”

Chen Wenjun raised his eyebrows: "Dare? Who gave them the guts to confuse black and white like this, and they dared to tell this outrageous lie? ”

Chen Wenhui said disapprerovingly: "Is this still a trivial matter? There are even more annoying than that. But they didn't invade our country, so they ignored them, and such a small punishment was just a little punishment, unlike the Japanese country, which was unforgivable. ”

Chen Wenjun nodded and asked, "Why is the place you said so cowardly, is the court there to be bullied?" ”

Chen Wenhui said: "Where can I manage so much as a girl, just tell what I see, where can I manage things?" ”

Chen Wenjun thought about it, Wan Meizhen was confused, Chen Wenhui saw her sister-in-law's confused appearance, smiled, and said, "Sister-in-law, how is the business of our shop today?" ”

Speaking of this, Wan Meizhen smiled: "It's better than expected." The goods in our shop will soon be out of stock if they go down at this rate, and I don't know if we can hold out until I bring new goods from Xinguang City. ”

Chen Wenhui nodded and said: "It's impossible to be so good all the time, the main thing is that the ceremony has made everyone concentrate in Black Iron City, there are more people, and there are naturally more things to buy, and now there are people going out of the city one after another, in the next few days, the flow of people will be less and less, and the transaction will be less, I estimate that it will last until you get the replenishment from Xinguang City, there is no problem, by the way, our goods are the best?" ”

Wan Meizhen said with a smile: "It is actually our glass products and mirrors that are the best to sell, and the mirrors are out of stock." In fact, the perfume in our store in Xinguang City is also about to be out of stock, and I am still waiting for the ship to bring some to the shop in Shanghai City. In addition to these few things, my own glass jewelry is very easy to sell, and these natives like such small, delicate and cheap small ornaments. Although there are some glass jewelry stores in this Black Iron City, they are not as new as ours, and of course they are not as good as ours. In addition to these few wines, which are relatively easy to sell, the aborigines and the residents of the Black Iron City here like to drink, so they are easy to sell. By the way, I also found some wine here that we hadn't drunk before, I tasted them one by one, and the wine of several tribes was exceptionally delicious, which may have something to do with the water quality of their place, and there are many kinds of wine made by the Hei family themselves, all of which are very delicious, and I have signed a contract with them, purchased a part, and planned to ship it back to Shanghai City to sell. ”

Chen Wenhui nodded and said: "Well, this is good, we not only have to sell more things, but also pay attention to the purchase of high-quality local products, so that we can make money at both ends." ”

Wan Meizhen said: "There is one point, there is no silver ticket in the Black Iron City, so it is all cash trading, which is very inconvenient, for example, I sell goods, I bring a lot of silver in advance, if this is in the Central Plains, just bring a few silver tickets, this has to be pulled by a mule cart, it is really a waste." In addition to this, the road is too bad, the road in the city is very good, but the road from Xinguang City to Black Iron City is too bad, we are used to good roads in Qingyang City, and the car is fast, so suddenly take this bad road, I feel tired and time-consuming, can you build a road on Yizhou Island? ”

Chen Wenhui nodded, and Chen Wenjun said: "Meizhen, you mention it, let's discuss it with the Hei family tomorrow, the people on the island together, we have a few big heads, and others second, so that the money is gathered and the road is repaired, the knife is sharpened and the woodcutter is not mistaken, the road is repaired, the trade will naturally be good, and the tax will be more." ”

The next day, Chen Wenjun really went to discuss the road repair with the city lord of Dingchuan, Ding Chuan was very happy and said: "Actually, the ancestors of our Hei family wanted to build a road on Yizhou Island, but it attracted the opposition of several other families, plus at that time, the natives were not so docile as they are now, so they put this matter down, and later, our energy was put overseas, so naturally the road repair on Yizhou Island was delayed, and now the city lord Chen said this, I am very much in favor, it is better for us to build the road from Xinguang City to Black Iron City first, And then slowly build other roads? ”

Chen Wenjun immediately agreed, and the two of them discussed the matter of building the road again, and did not return to the house until evening. When I got home, I saw Chen Wenhui and said, "Sister, what did you get from going to the shop today?" I've talked to the lord of the city. ”
