"It turns out that these spices were brought back from the South Seas by the navy!"

This news has now spread throughout Chang'an, adding another after-dinner topic to the people.

And after those rich armor nobles learned the news, they all moved their minds to find spices!

"Since the imperial court can go to sea, then it proves that we can too!"

Tempted by money, many people came up with the idea.

After all, the imperial court did not prohibit others from picking spices!

"I heard a few days ago that Zhao Guogong and Lu Guogong teamed up to buy a shipyard in Jiangnan, and it is estimated that they have already heard about the spices produced in Nanyang!"

Many nobles in the DPRK and China knew about this matter, but they didn't think about it at all, and simply thought that they wanted to build ships and sell them for money.

When this batch of spices came back with the navy, everyone suddenly realized.

It turns out that this old boy got the news a long time ago and started building ships in advance!

The shipyard of the eldest grandson Wuji has found many ministers in the DPRK and China to join in the shares, although he and Cheng Yanjin have now gone to Mount Tai, but there are still many people in the DPRK who have shares.

Therefore, no matter how the other nobles inquired, all the ministers who had joined the shares denied it!

They have taken out so much silver, and now they haven't seen a penny, how can they let other people get a piece of the pie?

However, the more strict their tone became, the more suspicious the other nobles were of the question!

"Since they don't say it, we'll find it ourselves!"

This idea has already crossed the minds of many people.

For the sake of the countless spices of the South Seas, they must overcome all difficulties to find them.

The first thing to be solved is the ship, but now Datang's shipyards are building steamships for the navy, and ordinary orders are scheduled for next year, and it is impossible to build ships for them in a short time.

So, some people plan to dig up some craftsmen from the shipyards.

But these craftsmen are treated very well here, and they have official titles, and no one wants to leave.

Even if they want to leave, they have to ask the Ministry of Industry first!

This made them very anxious, so they began to look for some small shipyards that could be used for ocean sailing.

"Do you see? Those navies brought back a lot of spices in the South Seas, and when those spices were sold, they would make a fortune! ”

"Who says it's not, the current navy is not the original sailor!"

"They don't take us seriously anymore!"

……

Now Jin Wuwei, all the soldiers are discussing this matter.

At the beginning, the sailor was very unappreciated in the big ** team, but now it is completely different, with silver in hand, and the waist pole is also quite straight.

This made Jin Wuwei's soldiers envious.

"If only I had been in the Navy at the beginning!"

One of the soldiers had a face full of remorse.

"You? You want to be a landlubber and want to be in the navy? Dream on! ”

As soon as these words came out, they were immediately ridiculed by everyone around them.

"I really can't now, but I can learn!"

His thoughts are the same as those of many soldiers in the Jin Wuwei.

You can see how attractive money is!

What a beautiful thing it used to be for Jin Wuwei, but now all the limelight has been stolen by the navy!

……

"Hahaha, the Navy has really found the spice!"

When Li Chengqian's flying pigeon messenger arrived at Mount Tai, Li Er called all his henchmen together to announce the good news.

"Congratulations to Your Majesty, congratulations to Your Majesty!"

"That's great news!"

Cheng Yanjin and the eldest grandson Wuji smiled and flattered.

On the surface, they were congratulating Li Er, but in their hearts, they were also congratulating themselves.

Since the navy has brought spices back, it means that Nanyang really has a large amount of spices, and after the ships in their own shipyard are built, they will send a caravan to Nanyang to pick up spices!

"Your Majesty knows the amount of spices?"

Wei Zheng asked.

This is the first batch of spices in Datang, and the money from the sale can make the treasury more abundant!

"Nearly four million catties, and the soldiers themselves picked more than 100,000 catties!"

Li Erxi said with a smile.

"So much?"

Listening to him finish counting, everyone's jaws dropped in shock.

Even Zhao Yin felt a little surprised!

He knew that spices were produced in Nanyang, but he didn't expect them to be so abundant!

"As soon as this batch of spices is sold, the treasury will have a large amount of money!"

The eldest grandson Wuji rolled his eyes and looked at Li Er with envy.

Although his movements are fast, no matter how fast he is, Li Er can't be faster, after all, the innate conditions of the people are there!

"Cheng Qian said in the letter, this is the weight when he first got off the ship, and after it is dried, it will be about a million catties!"

"That's not a lot!"

Eldest Sun Wuji smiled and nodded.

"This large batch of spices will definitely have an impact on the price of spices when they are put on the market, so the final transaction price will not be too high!"

Zhao Yin opened his mouth to remind, for fear that their expectations would be too high, and they would blame themselves when they were disappointed in the end.

"That's why I called you here this time!"

In the letter, the prince asked him how to sell this batch of spices so that the price would not fall too hard.

"According to my opinion, stay in the warehouse first, and then make a little shot!"

Cheng Yanjin thought of the easiest way.

"No, the navy has brought back so many spices, it is estimated that the entire Chang'an City knows about it now, in case someone has hot eyes and goes to look for spices, when the time comes, our spices can only lie in the warehouse and wait for the hair!"

Fang Xuanling shook his head, expressing his disagreement.

"That's right, that's what I'm worried about......!"

Li Er frowned and continued: "We have to ensure the price, but we can't ship the goods too slowly, this is really a big problem!" ”

"Where do you think people need spices the most?"

At this moment, Zhao Yin opened his mouth with a smile.

"Where?"

Everyone was thinking about what price the spices should be sold, but no one thought about it at all, and they all looked at him suspiciously.

"Nature is the ...... on the prairie!"

Zhao Yin clasped his hands in front of his chest and began to slowly analyze for everyone, "The herdsmen on the grassland have a lot of cattle and sheep in their hands, and they mostly feed on mutton, so naturally they need spices the most!" ”

"But how much money can the herders have?"

The eldest grandson, Wuji, asked a question.

Even if they need spices, they have to have money to buy them first.

Although it is said that the price of spices will go down, it does not mean that everyone can afford to use them!

"Since the establishment of a textile workshop in the city, wool has become a sought-after commodity, and those herdsmen have become local tyrants!"

Zhao Yin continued to explain.

If the wool was not valuable, how could those meritorious nobles compete to buy it when the Tuyuhun grassland was auctioned?

It's not to raise more sheep, so that they can shear sheep and sell them to textile mills!

"At what price should I sell?"

The final price is what Li Er cares about the most.

"Don't be too high, just at the price of five pounds, right?"

Zhao Yin thought for a moment and stretched out a slap.

"Five? This...... Wouldn't that be a little too little? ”

Hearing this number, Li Er's eyebrows were almost twisted together.

"This price is not low, if it is not as I expected, now everyone in Chang'an City is studying how to go to the South Seas, it is estimated that it will not be long before a steady stream of spices will be transported back, so we must rush ahead of them to sell this batch of spices!"

Seeing his painful expression now, Zhao Yin smiled secretly.

"Alas......! What a pity! ”

"Your Majesty doesn't have to feel distressed, if there are many businessmen who go to Nanyang, the tax revenue of the imperial court will also increase, which is also a lot of income!"

Zhao Yin pointed out another way to make money.

"Huh? Really! ”

After his dialing, Li Er immediately became interested, and his eyes began to shine.

"The price set by the horse, the old man thinks it is very reasonable, it can make many people use spices!"

After hearing this price, Wei Zheng nodded with satisfaction.
