Chapter 140: Buying and Selling
Ye Youhuan's identity is the general of Yan State.
Moreover, because he married Princess Jinyu, the only surviving royal bloodline of the Yan Kingdom, he is also the king of the Yan Kingdom.
Naturally, he regarded the people of Yan Kingdom as his own people.
When he learned that the people under his rule were living in dire straits, Ye Youhuan felt disgraced.
At the same time, he also understood why Zhuge An and others were so anxious when they mentioned internal affairs.
I also understood why Zhuge An and others wanted to let him get some food and money back in Jingguo before he went out.
Set sail.
The first time I crossed the sea by boat, I should have been in high spirits.
But Ye Youhuan was preoccupied.
From Jeju in the country of Yen to Gyeongkook, the distance by land and sea is considerable.
Ye Youhuan and others were trapped in Jeju and lost the land bordering Jingguo, so they chose the sea route.
They set off from Liandagang and headed for Aoyama Port, without a port break on the way.
When he arrived at Qingshan Port, Ye Youhuan was shocked by the scene in front of him.
The size of Castle Peak Port is two or three times the size of Lian Da Port.
There are countless merchant ships of all sizes parked in the harbor.
The huge port is like a giant beast, constantly swallowing goods.
The people on it are densely packed like ants.
The ship gradually approached, and Ye Youhuan saw that the people here were dressed differently, their looks and characteristics were very diverse, and the merchants seemed to come from different places, and even foreign merchants were not a few.
Ye Youhuan was very envious, when would the Yan Kingdom under his rule have such a port.
"General, our Liandagang used to be prosperous, before it was devastated by war." Yang Xie was very emotional.
"Let's rebuild the Yan Kingdom together, so that the people can live a good life."
Ye Youhuan was originally from Xishan Country, but at this moment he already regarded himself as a native of Yan Kingdom.
After getting off the boat, Ye Youhuan sent people to the City Lord's Mansion.
"General, aren't we going to visit the city lord?" Yang Xie asked.
"I'll just call someone to report it."
According to etiquette, Ye Youhuan should go to the local officials and enjoy the preferential treatment that the envoys deserve.
But for some reason, Ye Youhuan didn't have this intention.
Yang Xie asked strangely, "The general wants to travel to Jingguo?" ”
"That's right." Ye Youhuan said: "If you accept their reception, what you see in Jingguo must be what they want you to see, and you will definitely not see what they don't want you to see." So I plan to travel in casual clothes to learn about the national strength and customs of Jingguo. ”
"I see." Yang Xie listened to Ye Youhuan's words and felt very pleased.
Before walking with Ye Youhuan, Yang Xie had always regarded Ye Youhuan as a reckless man who was greedy for enjoyment.
But after walking with Ye Youhuan, Yang Xie changed his opinion little by little.
Before leaving the port, Sun Jian'an stopped Ye Youhuan.
"General, our Chamber of Commerce has offended a lot before, this is an apology prepared by the Chamber of Commerce for you, please don't dislike it." Sun Jian'an was holding a small wooden box, not arrogant or humble, but very polite.
Ye Youhuan ordered someone to take the wooden box, thanked him and left the port
On the way, Ye Youhuan opened the small wooden box, and there were ten gold leaves inside.
"Sure enough, it's a lot of money." Ye Youhuan said with emotion.
Ten gold leaves, ordinary people may not be able to earn so much money in their lives, and the Merry Chamber of Commerce actually said that they would give it to themselves.
Put away the gold leaves, Ye Youhuan took people to find restaurants and inns.
The first time they came to Jingguo, Ye Youhuan and Zhong Ling saw everything relatively fresh.
found the restaurant, Ye Youhuan and Zhong Ling ordered a lot of dishes, wanting to taste the deliciousness of Jingguo.
The dishes were served one by one, and after Ye Youhuan and the others tasted it, they were all full of praise.
"You're Yanren, aren't you?" A young man with fine skin and tender flesh suddenly came over with a stool and sat down beside Ye Youhuan and the others.
"That's right." Ye Youhuan looked at each other strangely and asked, "What do you have to teach you?" ”
"Do you want to get rich?" The young man asked mysteriously.
"Rich?" Ye Youhuan looked at the young man in front of him.
This person is thin and small, with red lips and white teeth, a soft yin and a soft voice, and a coquettish voice, which does not look like a man at first glance, but like a girl.
Ye Youhuan felt a little jealous, because this man was too good-looking.
But he quickly comforted himself that women must like him like this, and they would not like this kind of powder-faced little life without masculinity.
Ye Youhuan comforted herself in her heart, and she was overturned in an instant.
I saw that Zhong Ling actually stretched out his hand, touched the man's face, and said with emotion: "A man can be so good-looking." ”
"Ahem—" The young man was taken aback by Zhong Ling's bold movements, and then coughed dryly to hide his embarrassment.
Ye Youhuan was also taken aback by Zhong Ling's movements, but he was unconvinced, and said: "Good looking is good-looking, but it is not manly, it is too feminine, if you wear a wig, you can become a woman all of a sudden." ”
Zhong Ling's eyes lit up after hearing this, and he stared at the young man and asked, "Can you bring on a wig and take a look?" ”
"I ...... Ahem......" The young man tried to make himself look serious, and emphasized: "I am here to make you rich, and if you want to get rich, you better listen to me obediently." ”
After experiencing the previous events, Ye Youhuan became sensitive to money.
He told Zhong Ling not to mess around, and then said to the young man, "Why do you say that you can make me rich. ”
"Let me introduce myself first, my name is Yan Shi, and I am a Jingguo businessman." The young man introduced himself solemnly, and then asked, "I don't know about you?" ”
"Just tell us why you can make us rich." Ye Youhuan asked impatiently.
"Uh......" Yan Shi didn't expect Ye Youhuan to be so polite, but he was not discouraged, and immediately said after adjusting his mentality: "I have a deal that is sure to make money and not lose money, everything is ready, and I only need some start-up capital, so I have to find a partner." I see that although you are wearing the clothes of Yan Kingdom, you don't look like an ordinary person in your gestures, so I want your support. ”
"You just want me to ask for money and make a deal for you, right?" Ye Youhuan asked straight to the point.
"It's our common business." Yan Shi corrected.
"Why did you choose me just because I have money?" Ye Youhuan doubted: "There must be a lot of rich people in this port, is it because I seem to be particularly easy to deceive and easier to be fooled." ”
"Because this business is related to Yan Kingdom." Yan Shi answered Ye Youhuan's question very simply.
"Something to do with Yan Guo?"
Ye Youhuan had some expectations for Yan Shi's words.
He asked, "What exactly is your business, you can tell me." ”
"Before I introduce the business, I want you to introduce yourself." Yan Shi said solemnly: "If you want to be a business partner with me, you must understand that we are equal and learn to respect each other. ”
