"Can't think of it? With your knowledge, you can't think of it? Yu Wenwen felt a little inexplicable, Yang Ji actually retreated, he felt that he was talking too much, causing the other party not to want to deal with it. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 ｉｎｆｏ

"King, what if you can't think of it, what if you want to come up with it? There are priorities, and the king doesn't need to spend more effort on the ridge, otherwise what's the difference between it and Yuanmu seeking fish? ”

"If a person doesn't have a dream, what's the difference between him and abalone?"

Yu Wenwen asked rhetorically, abalone is the name of salted fish in this era, Yang Ji smiled after hearing this, and did not answer, he felt that Yu Wenwen was really over-energetic, and he always thought about something that he shouldn't think.

"After a while, it will be autumn, and when the north wind rises, it will be the time for the merchants to return to China, and when they come back, it will not be until the spring and summer of next year, so what kind of new measures for maritime trade will be implemented by the new government must be determined before they set sail, and try to inform them."

"Sea ships enter the port, what is the tax rate, how much tax do buyers and sellers have to pay, are all issues they are concerned about, and if you really want to plan Gudou Port into a sea trade port, you have to let out the wind first, otherwise when people come next year, they can't figure it out for a while and run away, what should I do?"

Yang Ji replied when he heard this: "The king, this matter will be handled by the lower officials, and I also ask the king to put his mind on the Central Plains, the Huangzhou army, including the Hulin army, can deal with the Chen army with ease, but in the future, if you want to deal with the cavalry of the Wei Chi family, I am afraid it will only be a series of bloody battles." ”

"It's not that complicated, either the first big battle will be defeated by them, and the army will be defeated; Either it becomes a confrontation, and then the enemy cavalry cuts off the grain route, and finally the food runs out and collapses without a fight, anyway, it is better to think about something happy to fight with the enemy with more cavalry in the plain area. ”

"Isn't the king trying to be happy in the midst of suffering?"

"Or else? There are few cavalry in Huangzhou, and if you really want to fight, you can only defend it according to the danger, protect the flank of Shannan, and do your part to win the decisive battle of the main force. ”

"The king laughed, there is a barbed wire, and our army is not helpless on the plain."

"However, the other party has thunder, and there are still a lot of them, hehe." Yu Wenwen laughed, his smile was a little helpless, "This can be regarded as a cocoon and self-restraint, think about it, the Tiger Forest Army with spears in formation, just by stubbornly defending it, can't withstand the continuous thunderstorms." ”

"If the thunder is really invincible, the official army would have taken Jiankang a long time ago, right? Why should the king play the lower officials, the development of maritime trade can not be planned overnight, and the king should not be impatient. ”

Seeing that Yuwen Wen did not give up, Yang Ji began to pour cold water, he was not very familiar with maritime trade, but after Panyu observed the people's situation everywhere, he probably had some understanding, and it was precisely because of this that he had some slander about Yuwen Wenxing's grand plan for the development of maritime trade.

Yu Wenwen's wishful thinking was crackling, thinking that with Panyu Port, then the trade route from Huangzhou Xiyang to Jiangzhou and then crossing the Da Yuling to Guangzhou Panyu would be rich once it took shape.

In general, Yang Ji thinks that Yuwenwen's plan is fine, but if you think about it, in fact, it will take several years for this trade route to become significantly profitable, and at the same time, it will face very serious competition.

From Xiyang, Huangzhou to Panyu, Guangzhou, there is actually a more convenient way to go, that is, first take the waterway along the Yangtze River into the sea, and then go south along the coast to Panyu.

This route saves time, effort and freight, set sail when the north wind rises in autumn and winter, I am afraid that it will be possible to arrive in Panyu from Xiyang in less than half a month, if you take the land route? For almost a month, along the way, shipping, horse-pulling, and people picked, and the freight skyrocketed.

In the same way, when the southeast wind rises in spring and summer, the ships full of goods sail north from Panyu and turn into the Yangtze River near Yangzhou.

All in all, between Panyu and Xiyang by water (sea), can save time, effort and money than land, although there are hurricanes along the coast in summer and autumn is indeed troublesome, but businessmen are most sensitive to cost, once the Zhou State pacifies the south of the Yangtze River, I am afraid that most of the merchants in the Yangtze River basin to Panyu are willing to take the waterway (sea).

In this way, the attraction of the land trade route planned by Yuwenwen is much lower, and there is a greater threat, that is, the seaport of the Central Plains, but not only Panyu can let Fanbang sea ships berth.

If the Central Plains were unified, the maritime merchants from the south could directly sail north, skip Panyu to reach the seaport on the border of Fengzhou, or go north to Huiji County in Yuezhou, or even more simply, arrive at Guangling Port in Yangzhou.

This is a ready-made port, and Guangling is located at the junction of the river, river and sea, even in the original history, Guangling was a famous port in the world in the Sui and Tang dynasties, and the ditch near Guangling can communicate the water system of the south of the Huainan River, that is, the prototype of the southern end of the Grand Canal in the Sui period.

It is foreseeable that with the end of the confrontation between the north and the south, Yangzhou Guangling will become the world's first water, sea and land convergence place, and become Henan, Huainan, the Yangtze River basin, as well as the distribution center of goods in coastal areas.

Guangling has the rich products of Huainan and even Henan as capital, and Huiji has the rich products of the Sanwu region as capital, and a large number of raw silk, silk, and porcelain can be bought in both ports.

Yuwen Wen wants to build a water and land trade route from Xiyang to Panyu to win the forces along the way to his side, this plan Yang Ji can understand, but with the change of the situation, this plan may not be as effective as expected.

Jiangzhou and the merchants west of Jiangzhou, sooner or later will consider taking the waterway into the sea to Panyu, so that you can carry a large number of porcelain, raw silk, silk, and if you take the waterway to land to cross the big Yuling and then turn to the waterway to Panyu, the cost will not be low, over time, we will inevitably make the most money-saving choice.

How can this be prevented? That is the "root cause" that Yang Ji originally envisioned: stipulating that in the sea area north of Xuwen, Fanbang sea ships can only dock at Panyu Port for trading, and use a method similar to the sea ban to make Panyu the only treaty port in the coastal areas of the Central Plains and enjoy the profits of maritime trade.

When the time comes, the naval army will be trained, and the sea area north of the dragon will be inspected, and all sea ships must be obediently sent to Panyu to do business, this is the so-called cure, but does Yuwenwen have the ability to turn it into reality? No.

Maritime trade is a huge profit, this kind of thing is not only known to Yuwenwen, and the collusion between officials and businessmen, it is not Yuwenwen who started to do it, how many local officials and wealthy businessmen are preparing to make a fortune by relying on Guangling and Huiji to do sea trade.

This kind of collusion between officials and businessmen, its strength is many times stronger than Yuwenwen's small group, he dares to operate the sea ban to make Panyu the only foreign trade port, I am afraid that the impeachment will pile up.

Unless he holds great power and even becomes the Son of Heaven, he has the ability to issue such an order regardless of public opinion, and Yuwen Wen is still far from such a status, so Yang Ji feels that it is not interesting to bring it up at all.

"Yes, there is progress, it seems that you have really opened up, but it is not enough, hehe."

Yu Wenwen smiled, he didn't look like he was hit at all, Yang Ji had the heart to argue, he wanted to hear what the other party had, but he saw Yu Wenwen use one of the thirty-six strategies: "It's not too early, I have to go back." ”

"King, King! Why did the king avoid answering? ”

"There's something to say, hum, and look at the widow's means!"
