This Tianjin Wei is on the edge of Beijing, and it is impossible to completely hide it completely.

But it doesn't matter.

Because Guo Dan's boss is Wanli.

Wanli has a very big advantage, that is, it is shameless to ask for money.

As long as this port can really make money for Wanli, then Wanli will not be able to close the port no matter what.

And Guo Dan believes that in the process of this discovery, the port of Tianjin must have prospered.

You must know that Tianjin Port belongs to one family, but unlike that Moon Port, the merchants of the entire Ming Dynasty went there to do business, and they had to pay taxes, pay protection fees, and deal with various officials, but there was no need here, and there was a stable supply of goods, as well as strong protection measures.

For example, Huang Yizu and others were actually just bait thrown out by Guo Dan, and they quickly completed the transaction, but the total transaction amount was only more than 70,000 taels, and this also added the more than 20,000 taels that Guo Dan paid to them.

It means that they brought a total of 50,000 taels.

On average, each person is less than 10,000 taels.

Guo Dan didn't talk to them personally, he handed over the responsibility to Shen Weijing, because he wouldn't stay here all the year round, he needed talents who stood alone, of course, he would still send people to manage the finances and goods, and Shen Weijing was only responsible for the negotiation.

And Shen Weijing also enjoyed it very much, because Zhu Yihua also said that he would summon Shen Weijing as a staff member, and Shen Weijing was like being beaten with chicken blood, which can be regarded as guarding the clouds and seeing the moon!

In the past two days, Guo Dan has been following Xu Wei and some soldiers of the forbidden army to arrange the defense of Luwangfu.

It's all about taking Xu Wei's plan.

Ninety percent of the troops are placed in the port, at most they will send some people to patrol the bay, or one is more important inside than outside, although they are going to rush out of the ocean, but Xu Wei believes that the first step to break out of the ocean is to hold the inland and ensure that we can only attack the other side, and the other side cannot hit us.

In addition to strategic reasons, there is also a relationship between supply and demand, there are now enough adventurers overseas, there is absolutely no shortage of pirates, but there is a lack of a safe and reliable bay inland, and there is a stable supply of goods here.

As long as these things are done, an army of pirates will naturally be formed.

And Xu Wei and Guo Dan set a defensive strategy, that is, to deploy all the soldiers on the periphery, give the entire residential area great freedom, and only arrange some idlers to maintain law and order, without official background, because serious people will not go to sea, and if they are managed by the official system, then they will definitely not be able to stand it, so whatever you want to make trouble in the residential area.

But make sure that you are always ready to stop fighting.

.......

The sky is still just bright, and on the dock of Yuyang Port, ships full of goods are ready to set sail.

"Mr. Shen, it's your fault! You should have made it clear to us at the time, otherwise you wouldn't have just had a few ships! ”

Huang Yizu is still complaining about Shen Weijing.

Shen Weijing nodded again and again: "Blame me!" Blame me! It's all my fault. ”

He actually knew that Huang Yizu was saying this to Guo Dan, because these maritime merchants found out that Guo Dan had not talked to them in person, and they thought that Guo Dan might think that they had no money and were not qualified to negotiate in person.

After all, Guo Dan showed a kind of strength that made people feel frightened.

They still hope that Guo Dan can pay attention to them.

Guo Dan on the side naturally heard this overtone, and said with a smile: "Everyone, I don't know when I will be able to see you again today, because under normal circumstances, I will not stay here, and Mr. Shen will be fully responsible for the trade negotiations here." ”

Huang Yizu was a little unconvinced, "Your Excellency, you don't even watch such a big deal in person?" ”

Guo smiled lightly: "At present, I still focus on China, and this is just a port. ”

Don't... Is this just a small part of his business?

Huang Yizu and other maritime businessmen only felt that their trading in the past few years had really gone into the dog's stomach.

But at the same time, I also feel that Guo Dan is not despising himself, but that is how he arranged it.

Guo Dan said: "Most of you are from Quanzhou, this silver two floats around on the sea, it is not very safe, the key is not convenient, in the future you can use our Yinuo money village to turn over the silver two, in this way, it will be more convenient, then there will be a money village here, you only need to deposit the silver into the money here, then you can take out the silver in many places in Jiangnan." ”

"Really?"

Huang Yizu said happily: "This is really convenient! ”

After all, their silver is not very clean, the silver into the country, is a very troublesome thing, if there is a money here, directly to the country, and at the same time can directly from the Jiangnan remittance money, which provides them with great convenience!

Of course, they don't dare to let them save money immediately, as Guo Dan said, they also need to build trust.

However, this is a matter of time, because the entire Luwang Mansion is tailor-made for trade, and the system or something is more advanced and perfect than that of Deyue Port in the south.

After explaining the operation of Qianzhuang with Huang Yizu, Guo Dan went to the end of the dock again, and saw Xu Jirong holding Li Dan's neck and saying something.

Because they were the same age, and Li Dan went to sea as a teenager and was well-informed, they quickly became acquainted.

"Dandan, I really envy you, you can go wherever you want, you have to go with my grandfather's approval wherever I want, but don't worry, I'll go with you next time."

Dandan?

Guo Dan immediately wiped a cold sweat, this guy is really dead!

Li Dan hurriedly said: "Brother Xiaojie, we are not going to play, this sea is actually quite dangerous, we almost starved to death at sea this time." ”

At present, everyone is not familiar with it, so they use the nickname that they once went to Weihui Mansion, Zhu Yihua is Ah Kun, Xu Jirong is Xiaojie, and Guo Dan is Lao K.

Xu Jirong didn't care, and said: "Danger is fun!" I don't want to go if it's not dangerous. ”

“......！”

Li Dan was speechless for a while, and just when he saw Guo Dan coming, he hurriedly saluted: "Li Dan has seen Your Excellency." ”

Xu Jirong immediately said: "Old K, you came just in time, and I will go to sea next time." ”

Guo smiled lightly: "Don't worry, let you come here to be a pirate, I will always let you go to sea, let's wait until the time is ripe." ”

Xu Jirong said: "How long will it take?" ”

Guo Dan said: "Wait until there are hundreds of subordinates for you to lead." ”

Xu Jirong's eyes rolled, and he nodded again and again: "Okay, good!" ”

Guo Dan said to Li Dan again: "Li Dan, have a good trip." ”

Li Dan clenched his fists and said, "Li Dan will never disappoint Your Excellency." ”

Guo Dan laughed and said: "You are not enough to disappoint me now, what you have to do now is to make yourself satisfied." ”

As he spoke, he also reached out to help Li Dan tidy up his collar a little.

Li Dan was stunned, hugged his fists again and said, "Li Dan knows." But there was already a flash of fire in his eyes.

This kind of fire is not anger against Guo Dan, but a kind of fighting spirit.

Guo Dan's understatement deeply stimulated him, and he secretly warned himself that he must obtain the qualification to disappoint Guo Dan when he comes back next time.

Zhu Yihua said suddenly: "Li Dan, don't forget what you promised me, bring more Japanese women and Korean women back, otherwise, your life here will be difficult!" As for money, it's not a problem. ”

As he spoke, he suddenly looked at Guo Dan: "Old K, did you say yes?" ”

Guo Dan wondered, "What do you mean?" ”

Zhu Yihua said: "Of course you are responsible for giving money!" I'm poor. ”

“......！”

An hour later, Huang Yizu and the others had boarded the cargo ship, left the port, and headed northeast.

Although it may not seem like a lot and does not match the size of this port, they represent hope.

In Guo Dan's eyes, they are a group of lure pigeons, and they will definitely come back with more "pigeons".

After those white sails disappeared into the sky, Guo Dan retracted his gaze, and then looked at Zhu Yihua and Xu Jirong, who were yearning for the yearning in their eyes, and smiled knowingly, what Daming needed was just a yearning for the sea, because there was endless wealth on the other side.

After returning to the residence, Guo Dan said, "We also have to prepare, it's time to go back to the capital." ”

"This is going back?"

Xu Jirong said depressedly.

Guo smiled lightly: "Do you still want to play here for a few days?" ”

As soon as the words fell, I saw Yang Feixu walk in and whispered a few words in Guo Dan's ear.

Zhu Yihua was full of envy, and said, "Feifu, can you talk to me like this next time?" ”

Guo Dan rolled his eyes and said, "At present, there is nothing here, even a few pseudo-pirates are gone, there is nothing to play, let's come back next time." Let's go back and pack up, and we'll leave tomorrow. ”

Zhu Yihua said to Xu Jirong: "Brother Rong, he is right, it's not fun here now, when there are more pirates, let's play again." ”

"Okay!"

Xu Jirong nodded.

After they went out, Guo Dan asked Yang Feixu again: "How is it possible, according to my estimate, the tariff should be able to hold out until the middle of the year, and there will be a loss, and it is only the beginning of the year, and the loss has already begun." ”

Yang Feixu said: "This is because many rivers have cut corners in the past, and in the process of treatment, many new problems have emerged. ”

"Damn, I ignored this fatal factor."

Guo Dan patted his head, and suddenly glanced at Yang Feixu, now Yang Feixu is used to wearing a black dress and high leather boots, which makes her tall, bumpy figure prominently drenched in dutifulness, "Actually, what the prince said is very right." ”

Yang Feixu handed over two inquiring glances.

"You can actually talk into my ear a lot....... Put away your thumbs. ”

Guo Dan immediately pointed to the hilt of the knife, and seemed to remember something, "That's right!" Have you ever killed someone before? ”

Yang Feixu said: "No." ”

She has always been working on the streets, and she has certainly never killed people, but she has killed a lot of rats.

Guo Dan was surprised: "Then why are you able to kill so naturally this time, is it talent?" ”

Yang Feixu said: "Because I didn't treat them as human beings. ”

“.......！”

......

The next day, early in the morning.

"Mr. Shen, although we hope that many maritime merchants will come here, it does not mean that we need to grovel, because in fact, it is they who ask for us, you should be strong, no matter who the other party is."

"Yes, I know."

"Also, anyone who floats from the sea is a talent we need, whether they have money or not, you can arrange some fishing tasks for them, let them fend for themselves here, and don't drive them away."

"Yes."

......

Today, Guo Dan is ready to leave for Beijing, and Shen Weijing, the licking dog, came to see him off early, Xu Wei of course disdains to do this kind of thing, and is now asleep.

"Huh? What are you two doing with axes? Is it to pretend to be a pirate, or to pretend to be Li Kui? ”

When he got out, Guo Dan suddenly found Zhu Yihua and Xu Jirong standing next to his carriage with a big axe.

Xu Jirong said: "Old K, you can't always take the carriage, you have to ride a horse like us, otherwise, it will seem like we are guarding you, this force me to pretend, from today on, you can't take the carriage anymore, otherwise, we will split the carriage." ”

Zhu Yihua also nodded straightly, the two of them didn't like to ride in the carriage very much, Guo Dan sat in the carriage, so he couldn't chat with them.

"I don't know how to ride a horse."

"You can learn!"

"But now is not the time to learn how to ride a horse."

"We don't care, you have to ride a horse today, you can't ride a carriage."

"Then you can split it, anyway, this is given to me by His Majesty." Guo Dan shrugged and said.

Xu Jirong couldn't help but look at Zhu Yihua.

"Look at what I do." Zhu Yihua said: "It was given by the emperor's brother, of course it can't be split!" But we don't have to split the carriage to be able to get him to ride. ”

Clang.

I saw Xu Jirong and Zhu Yihua suddenly throw away the axe, and then slowly walked towards Guo Dan.

"Hey, hey, what do you want to do?"

Guo Dan suddenly panicked.

"Will you ride it yourself, or will we let us carry you up."

"Don't mess around, it's going to kill you." Guo Dan said, looked at Yang Feixu again, and said, "Feixu, you still don't pull out the knife?" ”

Yang Feixu rode on the horse and said very slowly: "Lord Wang, little uncle, let him go, he really can't ride a horse." ”

"I'm rubbing! You... Put me down, let me go. ”
