The person who comes can be a housekeeper, can be a subordinate, they come to the Huiyi place, they only need to prove their identity, leave the name, address and needs of the main family, and the Huiyi place will deliver the goods to the door, of course, outside of Lin'an Mansion, they will have to go to the river to pick up the goods themselves.

And the payment is not collected together, when the return to the trade to send someone to deliver the goods, if the money is given, then it will be collected, if the money is not given, it will not be forced.

In short, these goods are almost half sold and half sent, even if some officials in Lin'an disdain these small favors, but the family members in charge of the inner courtyard are family members, for them, there are cheap overseas goods, why not? What's more, some goods are still priceless, and many people can't buy them if they want to.

Just when Yang Congyi and Lu You were busy sending benefits to Lin'an Xungui and officials, Huang Qi came to Huiyi and brought a few appointment documents.

Yang Congyi twice supervised the construction of the Hui Yi, escorted the fleet and the South and Western Oceans, brought back many rare treasures and the needs of the people's life for the Great Song Dynasty, and made outstanding contributions.

Tang Xun twice supervised the return of Yi, so that the Great Song Dynasty silk, porcelain and tea were exported overseas, in exchange for countless things needed by the people of the Great Song Dynasty, collected a lot of gold and silver, and alleviated the worries of the emptiness of the Great Song Dynasty treasury.

Shen Jin and Lu You traveled all over the world with the Hui Yi fleet as students, not afraid of huge waves and winds, the deep sea of the abyss, visiting the South Seas and Western countries, during which they assisted Hui Yi and escorted the fleet, and had many meritorious deeds.

At the same time, Huang Qi also brought an order to continue the return to trade, with a capital of 3 million guan and a profit of 30 million guan, and at the same time demanded that in order to make the return trade continue for a long time, the size of the fleet and the total amount of cargo were reduced compared with the last time.

Yang Congyi naturally agreed, and he responded with all his mouths, which was exactly what he thought.

Huang Qi still has a lot of things to do, and he left in a hurry after saying important things, and he didn't have time to talk about some things in detail.

For example, there is no clear statement on whether the Jingwu Army, which was previously under the jurisdiction of the Hui Yi Division, will return to the establishment of the former division of the palace, whether the commander of the Jingwu Army will be reappointed, and whether the guard camp will continue to be set up in Liuqiu.

The court didn't say it, Yang Congyi didn't ask, but then there were some questions, if the food and salary of the Jingwu army had been paid by the Hui Yi Office, where was there so much money in the Hui Yi Office, most of the money earned this time was handed over to the imperial court, and the most valuable gold, silver, jewelry, coral and jade were also transported into the imperial city.

In the eyes of most people, it is better to do something visible than to give money to the warriors, so they wish that the army that eats the imperial court food will be reduced, so that they will have more money and food to use elsewhere.

Since Yang Congyi has the intention to push the Jingwu Army back, as long as the return to the exchange is not revoked, the court has reason to disagree, after all, the return to the exchange is still there, the return to the easy still has to be done, and the fleet still needs to be guarded.

Therefore, at present, it seems that the elite army should have been bound to the return to the exchange office, and the problem of food and food must be solved by the return to the exchange office.

Yang Congyi is actually not too worried about the problem of money and grain, after all, there are still a few ships of goods in the hands of the Hui Yi Office, even if they are half sold and half sent, they can raise a lot of money.

But as Shen Jin rushed back to Lin'an Huiyi, the operation of retail goods stopped.

He gave three reasons to stop low-price retail, one is that when the news reached Mingzhou, some businessmen protested against this behavior, because it would affect their interests, and the relationship between the two sides was deadlocked, which was not conducive to later cooperation, and the second was that it was half sold and half sent, and the honorable and those officials would not necessarily appreciate it, and it would even be counterproductive, and those who were really interested in Western goods would not be rubbed for dozens of days, and there was no point in selling them again, and third, the emperor would generally reward his ministers with some rare things, such as the Western goods brought back this time, If every official of the Jing Dynasty had something that he bought and half gave away at home, the effect of the emperor's reward would be greatly reduced.

Shen Jin's three reasons are all very reasonable, especially the third reason.

After hearing this, Yang Congyi immediately ordered the retail to be stopped, and then announced to the public that the return to the trade office was out of stock.

Then the question is a little troublesome, how to deal with the remaining ships of goods unknowingly in the return office that has been declared to be out of stock?

Just when he was at a loss, Yang Congyi remembered Lu You's previous suggestion and exported it to Jinguo and Western Xia!

It is impossible for Western Xia, the land route is too far, and it cannot be transported at all, and the Jin country can take the sea route, this season is still when the south wind prevails, it is not difficult to go north with the wind, but whether it can trade with the Jin people smoothly is a big problem.

Now although the Song and Jin countries have negotiated peace for many years and have nothing to do with each other, it is impossible for the border between the two countries to pass at will, let alone to stop the sea ships on the land of the Jin State to trade with them.

The three of them discussed for a long time, but they couldn't make up their minds.

In any case, it is definitely worth a try to bring the goods to the northern gold country, and maybe you can exchange them for the cattle, sheep, horses, or real money you want.

But the problem is that none of the three of them have ever been to the Northern Jin Country, let alone made a deal with them.

Northern merchants!

Yang Congyi suddenly remembered that when he was serving in Xinghua a few years ago, he received the smuggling case of medicinal materials, and wasn't it the Jin State businessman who traded with them? Master Meng is involved in that business, and it shouldn't be too much of a problem to introduce a few Jin Guo businessmen to each other.

As soon as he said his thoughts, although Shen Jin and Lu You didn't agree very much, for a while, there was no better way, so they could only agree to try it and contact it first.

However, going north to Jinguo does not mean that you can go, just like going to the South Seas, you have to make some preparations, and you can't rush north.

The retail sales of Huiyi have stopped, but the dozen or so ships and Shenzhou are still parked in the Qiantang River, and some people who have not purchased goods are not giving up, and will go to spy and inquire from time to time, and it is inevitable that they will be exposed after a long time.

In order to avoid trouble, the three of them prepared separately, Shen Jin led more than a dozen sea ships and Shenzhou to leave Lin'an and move to Changguo, while Yang Congyi rushed to Xinghua by land to contact reliable merchants of the Jin State.

After the agreement was agreed, the three of them immediately went their separate ways.

Shen Jin led the fleet to leave Lin'an, and Yang Congyi urged the fast horse to rush straight to Xinghua.

Constantly changing horses, running for seven or eight hours a day, Yang Congyi finally arrived in Xinghua half a month later.

Before entering the city, he went straight to Meng's mansion and met Lord Meng.

It just so happened that Master Meng had nothing to do to rest at home today, and he didn't go anywhere, according to him, if he came a day late, I am afraid it would be half a month later to find him again.

After reminiscing and answering some questions, Yang Congyi asked Master Meng for assistance and asked him to introduce a few Jin State businessmen to know him, and he had something important to go to Jin Guo.

Seeing Yang Congyi's eager and cautious expression, Master Meng did not ask him what he was going to the Jin Kingdom as an incumbent official.

Yang Congyi's luck was very good, Master Meng told him that there were two ships in the port outside the city that were preparing to leave for the north to return to the Jin Kingdom, and there were Jin State merchants on board, and he happened to know him.

So on the same day, Master Meng was the east, and invited the businessman of the Jin Kingdom to meet with Yang Congyi and introduce the two to each other.

The Jin merchant Jia surnamed Lu, more than forty years old, was originally a Han Chinese, after the Jingkang Rebellion, did not cross to the south, has stayed in his hometown, and later became a Jin countryman, these years and the relationship with the Great Song Dynasty has not been broken, every year will come to do a business, from the north to the cowhide, sheepskin, cow tendon and other rare goods in the south to transport over, and then transport the southern medicinal materials to the north, this time is to do the medicinal materials business, five days later, the fleet will leave the port.

Yang Congyi directly told the other party that he had a batch of Nanyang goods that he wanted to ship to the north, but he was afraid that he would not find a market, so he didn't know if he had a way to sell it, or help sell it.

The merchant surnamed Nalu first asked for the details of the goods, and then asked for the specific quantity, and then said that it was probably difficult for the northerners to sell things that they had never seen and had not used, and he was in the business of medicinal materials, although he could not help with sales, but it was no problem to introduce him to a few merchants.

Hearing this, Yang Congyi was a little relieved, it is normal for businessmen to be cautious, if they don't even know what the goods are, they will take care of everything, and the chest will thump, then there must be a problem.

Master Meng and the shopkeeper Lu have known each other for many years, and with his introduction and guarantee, Yang Congyi immediately agreed with him that he would take his boat north to Changguo County, Mingzhou in five days, and then lead the fleet to the north, and promised that after the matter is completed, there will be heavy thanks.

After that, Yang Congyi hurried back to Quanzhou, this time he was afraid that he would not come back until the winter moon, and he needed to go home and explain.

As soon as he returned home, Gu Qingchen told him good news, Lian'er was pregnant, and the Yang family was about to add Ding again.

That night, there was a sumptuous meal, and the three of them celebrated with tea instead of wine.

After the meal, Gu Qingchen gave Lian'er two pieces of jewelry, a hosta and a jade bracelet on behalf of Yang Congyi, thanking her for her hard work over the years.

That night, after Gu Qingchen discussed with her husband, she decided to hire two subordinates to take care of Lian'er's daily life.

Yang Congyi was helpless, he knew this was the case, why did he have more children, didn't he find his own guilt?

Of course, he couldn't say this, otherwise he would have to argue and quarrel and break up unhappily.

He told Gu Qingchen that she could make her own decisions about the affairs of the family, who to hire and how many people to hire, in fact, there was no need to wait for him to come back to decide.

But Gu Qingchen didn't agree with his idea, there was one more person and one less person in the family, he was the head of the family, where could he not make a decision, otherwise wouldn't he be messed up?
