"This is the warehouse area, all the goods must be unloaded into the warehouse area according to the requirements of the island government, the warehouse here is to collect money, but it is very cheap, a warehouse is only 100 yuan a month."

Li Zirang listened to the introduction, while carefully observing these warehouses, he shook his head and said, "These warehouses are temporarily built at first glance, the foundation is not strong, and the wood used to build the house is not high-quality wood, I am afraid that this house should be rebuilt in four or five years." ”

"The third master is really wise, this place did take more than a month to build." The man said with a flattering face.

Li Zirang glanced at the man and said, "Quan Zhenxian, master, I don't need your compliment, let's talk about it, how to operate?" ”

Kwon Jinxian pointed to the courtyard where people came and went at the very edge of the warehouse and said, "That's the place where the warehouse is managed, it's called Cangshou, the third master, please come with me." ”

The group entered and saw a counter with several people sitting on it, Li Zirang squinted his eyes, judging from his experience, he found that the people sitting were not Koreans, but Song people, and they seemed to be from the military.

Kwon Jin-hyun found a counter where no one was around, sat down on the stool where it was placed, nodded and said in Chinese, "Hello, I'm here to rent a space." ”

Chinese? Li Zirang was surprised to find that the people who spoke here were not Goryeo dialects, but the Chinese of the Song people, which further confirmed his judgment that these people were indeed Song people.

"How many ships? Where did it come from? What is the shipowner called? How many positions do you want? How long to rent? What cargo and when can it be disembarked? The Song man on the opposite side skillfully took out a piece of paper and began to write, draw, and draw.

Quan Zhenxian said Li Zirang's fleet again, and then said, "You can get off the ship today, first ask for twenty positions, rent for a month." ”

The Song man nodded, took out a seal and stamped it, pointed diagonally and said, "Go over there to pay, get the key, and when the goods are off the ship, remember to come here to inform us of the inspection and closing." ”

Quan Zhenxian sighed, ran to the opposite side to pay the money, took a bunch of iron cards and keys, ran to Li Zirang and said, "Third master, it's all done, this is our warehouse number, this is the key, when we want to unload the goods to the warehouse, take the number to the warehouse guard, the warehouse guard still has a key in his hand, it takes two keys to open the door, I rented twenty warehouses first, and I don't know if it is enough." ”

"What? From the outside, one of their warehouses is not small, isn't twenty enough? Li Zirang asked.

"Third master, only one kind of goods are allowed to be stored in the warehouse here, so I rented more, and now we have to hire someone to unload the goods, or we will unload the goods ourselves, third master, you see?" Quan Zhenxian looked at Li Zirang, Li Zirang immediately shook his hand and said, "All the soldiers who came were sergeants, where is the reason for unloading, and how much is the coolie here?" ”

Quan Zhenxian took Li Zirang out of the warehouse and said, "There is the coolie market, most of the coolies here are formed according to the class, a class of ten people, moving things according to the time, a day for a class costs 300 copper coins, a person is 30 Wen a day, or half a day." ”

This money is nothing to the value of the goods brought by Li Zirang, so he said, "We have brought seven ships of goods, and it will take thirty-five shifts first, and the transportation will be faster." ”

Kwon Jin-hyun really had a clear understanding of the situation on Jeju Island, and soon called for people, and because of the large number of people who called, there were even ten guards patrolling the port who came together.

Li Zirang didn't want to see these guards, so he said, "You arrange things, take me into the city first to see what you said and hand over the building." ”

In just a few months, Jeju Island has changed its appearance, before Li Zirang also came to Jeju Island, at that time it was still called Tamna County, he remembered that when he came here, there were not even a decent inn and restaurant in the city, and now, he saw several people holding a wooden sign, on which were written Chinese characters, what restaurant, what inn stood at the gate of the city to solicit business, this inn restaurant is many, you can also see the popularity of this place.

Li Zirang looked around and found that there were not only Goryeo and Song people on the road, but also short Japanese and Liao people wearing furs, he couldn't help but snort, this has really become a place where merchants from all over the world gather.

Shangjiaolou is an attic located at a crossroads in the city, with three floors high, Li Zirang found that there were twenty or thirty guards guarding the outside of this building, each bow was wound, and the knife was unsheathed, which could be described as heavily guarded.

"What the hell is this place? Why is there still a sergeant guard, and it is so strong? Li Zirang asked while looking up at the plaque hanging on it.

"Third master, this handover building is the place where Jeju Island goods are traded, after our goods arrive at the warehouse, the warehouse guard will issue a shipping ticket according to our goods, which will clearly write the source of the goods, quantity and other information, we can take the goods to trade here, here are gathered big businessmen from all over the world, there is nothing that cannot be sold, there is no thing that cannot be bought, of course, people can not buy and sell.

It is said that the handover building is preparing new rules, called what futures, you can order, the money is handed over to the building first, if the goods come, you don't want it, the money will also be supplied, but if the goods are not right, or the quality is problematic, the money will be returned to you. Kwon Zhenxian said while counting the treasures, and pointed to the sergeant guarding outside and said, "Because here are all rich or expensive wealthy businessmen, here are afraid that someone will fish in troubled waters, so there are more sergeants, in fact, now the people of Jeju Island everyone have something to do, the folk customs are quite good, the villain dropped a jade pendant some time ago, and thought that there was no one like this, but he was sent to the government, and the man also said that now he is a coolie, well-fed, warmly dressed, and not afraid of pension in the future, so he is not willing to be greedy for things." ”

"What does it mean to be afraid of retirement?" Li Zirang heard another message.

Quan Zhenxian said with a sigh of relief, "The government here stipulates that all official personnel can pay 10% of their monthly income as pension money, and when they can't do it in the future, they can get money from the government. ”

Li Zirang vaguely felt that the rulers of Jeju Prefecture were doing this for a great purpose, but he couldn't figure it out, so he could only shake his head and say, "Let's go, let's go and have a look first." ”

wanted to enter the handover building, but was first asked to pay ten taels of silver as a ticket, which made Li Zirang a little distressed, he glared at Quan Zhenxian, blaming Quan Zhenxian for not making it clear first, Quan Zhenxian could only feel bitter in his heart, and hurriedly asked, "My lord, isn't it possible to enter without money before handing over the building?" Why do you need money now? ”

The little official guarding the door probably didn't explain for the first time, and said with some impatience, "There were few people before, so you can naturally enter at will, but now it's overcrowded, of course, you have to limit one or two." If you are not buying or selling goods, I advise you not to go in. ”

Li Zirang glared, someone had already sent silver taels, and the little official weighed it with a scale, nodded and said, "Go in." ”

Walking into the handover building, Li Zirang found that it was more like a strange-shaped restaurant, surrounded by counters, and guests could only nail these countless lists on several large wooden boards in the middle, and there were large characters for classification on the large wooden boards, such as cloth, wine, animal skins, jewelry, etc.

Li Zirang first chose a seat to sit down, listened carefully to the conversation of the people around him, and hurriedly rushed up to fight when he arrived at a new place.

As the third elder of the first family of Goryeo, Li Zirang knew one or two Chinese languages, so he could understand them.

"Now there are still a few goods from Goryeo, the price is too high, I think we have to wait, this forbidden sea has raised the price of Goryeo."

"Look, there is a list of horses hanging out, twenty horses, if this is transported to the Song Kingdom, it will be worth a lot of money, and I don't know which guy is so bold that he actually brought all the horses, wow! So many people went to bid, and sure enough, everyone took a fancy to this piece of fat. ”

"The glass mirror is out, on all sides, I want this, you sit for a while, I'll go and pay the bill!"

Li Zirang suddenly found that he didn't seem to know how to do business, what are these people talking about? What is a single order?

Quan Zhenxian immediately explained, "Three masters, these lists are the goods orders in the warehouses around the country, this list will be hung for twelve hours, if you are interested, you can put a single on the bill number over there, if the amount of investment is the largest and greater than the expected value of the owner, it will be closed, if no one takes the order for twelve hours or the amount of the order is less than the expected amount of the owner, then it will be withdrawn, let the owner change the amount or take it back." ”

Li Zirang looked at the businessmen around him and couldn't help but take a breath, this is an extremely mature business model, all this was completed in just a few months, to say that there is no premeditation, it is impossible, then whose premeditation will it be? Li Zirang could only think of those Song people, he got up and said, "Let's go, go find Li Fengyi!" ”

Kwon Jinxian sighed and hurriedly followed, and where they didn't notice, a person also hurriedly left the handover building, not knowing where to go.

——

Two cups of tea, Li Zirang looked at Li Fengyi, who was obviously different from the last time he saw him, slowly picked up the teacup and smelled it, and said, "Good tea, I'm afraid this is the tea of the Song people." ”

Li Fengyi nodded and said, "With the merchants of the Song Kingdom coming, naturally there will be no shortage of tea, and the third master is coming this time, I'm afraid it's not just on behalf of our Li family, right?" ”

"It turns out that you still know that you were born in the Li family? Why didn't you report the incident in Jeju Island to your family? Do you know how much we have been scolded for you? ”

"Reporting? What if you report it? This place is no longer the territory of Goryeo, will there be any changes after the report? What's more, I didn't write to the family before, so who of you cares about Wu Yong and the others' previous wooing and knocking? Hehe... I'm afraid you don't care about Jeju Island, you don't care about me Li Fengyi. ”

Li Zirang heard a strong sense of resentment, too, a talented family was driven to a place like Jeju Island just because he was a concubine, and it is impossible to say that there is no resentment.

Li Zirang decided to appease this kid.

"It's not that the family doesn't value you, before I came, the eldest master had already told me that you are very capable, and you should return to Kaijing in the future to make more contributions to the family."

"Huh!" Li Fengyi chuckled twice, if it weren't for the fact that he still had his family in Kaijing, he would have been a little impatient to slap Li Zirang in the face, and he finally held back and said, "Then what does the family need me to do now?" You should have seen the outside, those Song people have already had a complete set of plans, merchants from all over the world can get what they want here, and the aborigines here, because of the gathering of merchants from all over the world, life is getting better and better. ”

Li Zirang asked tentatively first: "How many guards are there in the Song people?" ”

Li Fengyi immediately said with a cold face, "The third master, let's give up this idea, there are thousands of guards in the city, and now they are all under the command of the Song people, if you want to seize this place by force, prepare 10,000 corpses first." ”

Li Zirang smiled hehe, if he could, of course he wanted to replace the person in charge of Jeju Island with someone from the Li family in Inju.

"So the family needs to know everything about Jeju Island, especially those Song people, what do they want to do?"

"I don't know...."Li Fengyi also thought about this question, but he couldn't get any answer.

"I heard that the sea is forbidden in the country?" Li Fengyi suddenly asked rhetorically.

"Well, the merchants and the people are not allowed to go to the sea."

"I'm afraid the price of Goryeo's goods here is going to be higher, the family should be able to make a lot of money, and I don't know how the king agreed..."Li Fengyi shook his head and said, of course he knew that the so-called forbidden sea was only allowed to be set on fire by the state officials and not allowed the people to light the lamps, otherwise how did Li Zirang sit in front of him?

"The King... The king's caravan will also come. ”

Li Fengyi shook his head helplessly, he understood why the matter of the forbidden sea in Goryeo would go so smoothly.

- Jeju Governor's Office

After listening to the man below, Wu Yong waved his hand to let him go down, and Ruan Xiaoer said, "Military advisor, this surnamed Li won't turn back, right?" ”

Wu Yong touched his beard and said with a smile, "Don't worry, Jeju Island is as stable as Mount Tai, and now the king of Goryeo is fighting with soldiers, and we are not afraid." ”

Bai Sheng asked incomprehensibly, "Strategist, we only have a few thousand people here, and most of them are locals, how can they be the opponents of the Goryeo Army?" ”

Wu Yong said hehehe, "The existence of Jeju Island has allowed countless Goryeo nobles to make a fortune from it, do you say that they will be willing to disappear the current existence of Jeju Island?"

Not to mention that we only have a few thousand, even a few hundred, they can also be killed and fled in defeat, you know, most of the generals in Goryeo are from noble backgrounds. ”

Saying that, Wu Yong didn't care if the two of them understood, walked out of the door, looked at the sunset, and secretly calculated in his heart, the fire in Goryeo has been planted, and those nobles will definitely not be willing to give up any benefits to others, as long as they make good use of these people's greed, it won't take long for Goryeo to become a beacon! And Liangshan can take the opportunity to take advantage of the fire!
