Maritime trade is also one of Wang Lanling's future directions.

Mainly military, Wang Lanling believes that the inland plate is large enough to support the living standards of the population in Lanling County at present and in the next 100 years.

The essence of maritime trade is to expand markets and dumping places for commodities, and to supplement itself by plundering foreign capital.

The empire was too large to pay much attention to maritime trade.

Wang Lanling developed the navy only for self-protection, and he was still more inclined to do business with neighboring states than several overseas states, expand his influence, and absorb the population.

The population that can be obtained by maritime trade is far less than the population that has now come in from several nearby states.

If a few places with a population of tens or hundreds of millions around do not develop, what kind of maritime trade will be developed......

Not to mention anything else, the remaining population of Muzhou alone is enough for Wang Lanling to develop for twenty or thirty years.

Now I can take the initiative to contact the Chamber of Commerce in Shanzhou, which is already a matter of 34 years after planning.

Wang Lanling is like this, it is conceivable that most people in this era are interested in doing business with outsiders.

At present, the main business done across the state is the official and commercial business set up by the emperor himself, and the main body is a group of people who eat state food and embezzle state military funds and salaries.

For example, coal, train transportation, water transportation, salt and iron trade.

These are all resources obtained by the imperial court itself by using the ability to conscript, and the people represented by nobles and officials and businessmen are empty gloves and white wolves.

If it is a resource purchased by the businessman himself, then unless the profit is sufficient and the risk is not high, not many people are willing to do interstate business.

The premise of a good business on Wang Lanling's side is that the profits are high, which can make the middlemen make a lot of money, and at the same time, treat those businessmen politely and protect their personal safety.

In other places, unless it is a few states near Longzhou, there will basically be no such businessmen who run too far.

The situation in Lanzhou is similar, although the main body is shipping, but the profit is not enough, the risk at sea is also large, and the slightest carelessness is the separation of people and ships.

Therefore, the smuggling of military ships is the most profitable, and the business without capital is really cool!!

The Great River Chamber of Commerce used warships, and they did not build ships themselves, but used the funds and ships of the Royal Shipyards, as well as retired sailors and steamships.

The merchants themselves engaged in great voyages, and they must not lose their lives!

How can it be done without the support of the state?

Wang Lanling put the report aside, now the empire is like this, there are a lot of things that are rotten to the bone in every place.

"It can't be too fast, if it's too fast, these bastards will run into my territory."

Wang Lanling insisted on slowing down and playing steadily.

Since ancient times, it doesn't take much time to fight the world, but it can be difficult to govern.

Wang Lanling always felt that many bad people outside would take refuge in him, but based on what Wang Lanling did, it was really not like this.

***

"I'm not going, you tell Brother Ling, I'm fine here."

Wang Lanfeng refused Wang Lanling's invitation to move, and this time it was Lao Zhao's sons, Zhao Rangyi and Zhao Ranger, who found him.

Because he escaped with the Zhao family, and the Zhao family and the Wang family are relatively familiar, it is natural to let the Zhao family be responsible for this matter.

Zhao Rangyi quickly said, "Why? Now that the court and Lord Wang have nothing to do, it's okay for us to go directly to the official road, as long as we keep a low profile, there is absolutely no problem! ”

Zhao Ranger also followed and said: "Brother Wang, please rest assured, even if we fight for our lives, we will protect you to reach Lanling County safely, no one in this world dares not to give Lord Wang face!" ”

The two of them suffered so much, and they took the brothers to look for a long time, just to take Wang Lanfeng and Zhang Zhu back, but this person refused to go!

Wang Lanfeng said cautiously: "If you don't go, it's good here, in fact, the county lord also knows that I am here, and I haven't said anything, after my brother is fine, my life here is also a lot more comfortable, it's good, it's really good." ”

In fact, I only received the beauty arranged by the county lord a few days ago, and I was afraid that if I went to Wang Lanling, my wife would be gone.

After Wang Lanfeng became an official, he bought several beautiful girls as concubines, although they were all lost when he fled, but now that his life is stable, he bought some more.

Now he is a rich man in the countryside, his life is comfortable, and he can't think of how good it can be.

But the Zhao brothers and some businessmen have said that Wang Lanling has a monogamous wife, and even his father-in-law's concubine was forcibly dispersed by Wang Lanling, and there is only one daughter-in-law left for the eldest brother-in-law and the younger brother-in-law.

In the past, I had to live in a building, huddled in a building with many people, and I had to go to work every day.

Wang Lanling works overtime every day, and everyone in Lanling County has to work in the fields.

Wang Lanfeng is not alone, is it important to be a younger brother, or is it important to have a room of wives and concubines?

After passing, he was really afraid that Wang Lanling would give away all his beloved concubines.

This is nothing to do, Brother Wang thinks that Wang Erlang can do it.

Zhang Zhu also followed: "Let's not go, say hello to Brother Ling for us, we are doing well here, so he doesn't have to worry." ”

When Wang Lanling was in Heishui County, he advocated giving benefits to the people, and often used his own money to help those people, but Wang Lanfeng and Zhang Zhu were unwilling to learn from Wang Lanling.

They can be regarded as people with family business, and now they only want to live a peaceful and stable life as a landlord, and they don't want to go to Wang Lanling to work in the fields.

And Lanling County has two acres of land for one person, what is enough?

Except for Wang Lanling, the Zhao family and those people in Heishui County all have the same amount of farmland.

Wang Lanyun, Wang Lantian and others are also like this, and they have all changed their names and surnames!

You can't buy land, you don't have your own house, and you have to work after you pass, what did you do in this kind of place?

Zhang Zhu's children are all five, and now he has been living in the countryside of this small county for a while, and he really doesn't want to go to Wang Lanling.

Even in the last years of the dynasty, there are still some people who are living a good life.

These people who have lived a good life are not willing to live a hard life, even if Wang Lanling calls, they will run away.

Zhao Rangyi and Zhao Ranger persuaded for a while, and after staying at Wang's house for a day and a night, the two could only go back with the letters of Wang Lanfeng and Zhang Zhu.

When passing through Heishui County, the two also went to contact some relatives and friends, as well as some people they knew.

There are still some people in Heishui County, and after knowing what happened, these people joined the team to return to the city very happily.

The only way to really keep running towards Wang Lanling's territory is to escape from the poor people.

With his rules and deeds, intellectuals and aristocrats would not take the initiative to get close to him.

Of course, as long as Wang Lanling hits the door of those people's homes, these people will greet their emperor.
