Chapter 399 Cooperation

"I heard that the Sun family's main income is pearls, gems and spices?" Situ Changfeng asked.

"Yes, there are a lot of those things in the Nanyang area, Brother Situ likes it, next time the younger brother will let him send more." Sun Xiaohu said with a smile.

"Thank you, Brother Sun." Situ Changfeng smiled faintly.

"Pearl tortoiseshell, coral gemstones, these used to be a lot, all of them were exchanged from the natives, and the natives were fished from the sea, and now the production is very low, especially the top grade; There are a lot of spices, but in recent years, the territory of the imperial court has expanded, and many people have gone out of the Central Plains and transported back many from land and sea, so the price has dropped again and again. Sun Nanan heard what Situ Changfeng meant, and explained.

Situ Changfeng means that these are all very valuable, why does the Sun family still want to make small profits.

"I see!"

Situ Changfeng listened to it, and also believed what Sun Nanan said, the Sun family has occupied Nanyang for many years, and what should be harvested has been almost done, and in the sea, it is indeed very difficult for simple natives to salvage, it should be said that it was exchanged for life.

Spices are not only made by the Sun family, but also by the Western Regions, and by the Jiangnan family, which are also transported from Lingnan, and the original Shuzhong got it back from Nanzhao, so the price is indeed much lower, and the distance is long, which is also a hard money.

Again, the Sun family needs to feed a large number of troops, which is a bit stretched.

Sun Xiaohu didn't understand what the two were fighting, and when he heard his second uncle call him poor, he couldn't help staring at the two of them in a daze.

"Nanyang has a mild climate and abundant products, which can be described as a treasure trove." Situ Changfeng smiled at Sun Xiaohu, turned his head and said to Sun Nanan.

"Please show the way, General! The Sun family is grateful! Sun Nanan stood up and bowed, pleading seriously.

"The Sun family is very admirable for us Han people to expand their territory, and besides, Brother Sun and I hit it off at first sight, so we don't have to see each other." Situ Changfeng said with a smile.

"The general has won the award, and he is also a Han Chinese, so he should do it." Sun Nan'an is open-minded, he has been sunburned all the year round, and his dark old face has smiled like a chrysanthemum.

"The south is rich in fruits, and many special ones are really there, and they are only available there, after selection, soaked in boiling cold water, canned in ceramics, and vented to the air, which can be stored for up to a year. Some of them are indeed sliced and dried to make dried fruits, which is also a delicious dish. Yuezhou, Langzhou, after three years of planting fruits, last year's total output value reached one million, the south has more varieties, the number is also very large, if it is made into a scale, the harvest will be very much. Situ Changfeng introduced.

"I also ask the general to provide guidance from craftsmen, and the Sun family is willing to provide forty percent of the profits." Sun Nanan said sincerely.

"Profit doesn't have to be." didn't want to have too many interests involved, so Situ Changfeng directly refused.

"The Great General......

"These profits are used to share the profits with other families and merchants, so that the Sun family only needs to be transported to the Jiangnan area, and they can get rid of it, saving a lot of trouble, wouldn't it be better." Situ Changfeng suggested.

"Of course this is good, but in this way, the general has not received a penny, and the Sun family has become an unrighteous person." Seeing Situ Changfeng's resolute attitude, Sun Nanan couldn't help but smile bitterly and said.

"In that case, do me a favor."

"General, please say, the Sun family will never shirk."

"I want to set up sugar factories in Nanyang, Piguo, Xianglin and other places, and ask the Sun family to help me with one or two." Situ Changfeng explained.

"That's a good thing! That way, we don't have to transport the sugarcane that far. The general can rest assured that you only need to arrange manpower, and the workshop will be built for you. Sun Nanan patted his thigh and said happily.

Situ Changfeng did not refuse the kindness of the Sun family, and accepted it after thanking him.

"The climate in the south is mild, with more rain and less drought, it is better to grow food. Situ Changfeng took the tea and saluted and continued.

Putting down the teacup, Sun Nanan explained with a wry smile: "Although the south is a large place, it is sparsely populated, many places are full of deep forests, and the environment is harsh. There is not much capacity to scale up food cultivation. ”

"Those natives are very lazy, and some tribal men don't have to do things at all." Sun Xiaohu interjected in an incredible tone.

Tropical rainforest, Situ Changfeng also knows something, he once went there to inspect when he was in Soochow, and naturally he also knows what kind of birds those monkey-like natives are.

"Of course, this is not a short-term process, since those native monkeys are so lazy, we Han people should be diligent and marry a few more native people!" Situ Changfeng said with a smile.

"Yes, yes, work hard for the people, after more than ten years, there will be no such thing as those earth monkeys." Sun Xiaohu followed with a smile.

"There is a shortage of manpower in the south, and it is difficult to supervise, so I will apply to Your Majesty and mobilize a group of Khitans to come over, and if you want to come under the whip, you should be much more diligent." Situ Changfeng lightly knocked on the coffee table.

Although the south has been occupied for many years, it cannot change the scarcity of Han people, so the control is naturally full of loopholes.

Situ Changfeng has always advocated that the people of Datang be listed as first-class, and these people who have just taken refuge in Datang are of course the best thugs.

Nomads have a strong personality, they can be used as thugs, supervisors, and they should be very happy to come to an ordinary soldier and jump up to manage many natives, after all, they are also an official.

However, the population of Nanyang is indeed a huge flaw, which will take at least one or two decades to improve.

Now the imperial court can't absolutely control the remote places, and it is impossible to vigorously immigrate, so Situ Changfeng wants the Han people to spread all over the world, and solving the speed of travel is the most important job.

In a short period of time, the only way to do this is by water. At present, it only takes 25 days for Luoyang to go to sea and go down the river, and it takes three months to get to Guangzhou.

Of course, if you use the latest warship in Yuezhou, it will only take two months and ten days to reach Guangzhou. and other technological innovations, which should be reduced to two months, which is also a target task for Situ Changfeng.

Since the internal population problem of Datang is not easy to solve, Situ Changfeng naturally looks outward.

The north is almost entirely nomadic, with a small population and not good at planting, so it is only suitable for thugs.

But there is a place where the population is large, the land is fertile, and the temperature is good, and the point is that there is slavery, and the people are very honest and are the most suitable objects for farming.

That's right, that is Tianzhu, and the current imperial court and the Sun family have made initial contact with Tianzhu, but they don't know about it. The rest depends on how Situ Changfeng plans and how he convinces Li Shimin to occupy Tianzhu, a territory thousands of miles away.
