"How can there be such a good thing in South Korea. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info I feel very strange. A Chu businessman in Xinzheng, South Korea, who is engaged in the tea business, said in the Chu Chamber of Commerce.

"Double one-way, what a good deal, we can pull the things made in Xinzheng to Qi country. The freight is considered to be the Korean government, and then after arriving in Qi country, Qi country also has a lot of things, such as salt, and all kinds of seafood from the coastal area. A Chu businessman who specializes in reselling seafood said excitedly.

The so-called sea goods are all kinds of products brought back from the South Seas by South Korean armed merchant ships, and these products are dazzling, and they are called sea goods only unique to the South Seas.

"If you think you can make money, you can follow me, it's a good thing anyway, you can make a lot of money." The Chu merchant who resold seafood said excitedly. Because reselling seafood is very profitable. The main reason is that the usefulness of some things has not been developed, such as sea pearls, coral, such things can only be used for ornamental purposes, and there are some precious woods, some suitable for furniture, and some of the best spices. Because of the restrictions of Qin perfumes, spices can't be sold for much price.

"This." Some businessmen are afraid that there is a lot of risk involved, so they are reluctant to get involved.

"You can fund a car, if it's good, continue to do it, if it's bad, you won't lose much." The businessman of Chu State, who was in the seafood business, said.

"Okay, that's it. Anyway, I didn't lose much money, so I did it. "The other businessmen were finally moved to be willing to participate in such a thing.

And after hearing what the merchants were talking about, he began to wonder.

The recent developments in South Korea are very suspicious, why does South Korea spend so much effort to do such a loss-making business, is it to encourage maritime trade? Negative shook his head and thought. He doesn't think it's that simple.

The most suspicious thing is that the movements of the new army in South Korea, the military exercises against the southern Wei state have ended. It stands to reason that the South Korean New Army should have withdrawn. But what I didn't expect was that the South Korean New Army actually drove to Qi to suppress bandits. Could it be a coincidence?

It is definitely not a coincidence, there must be something strange in it, and there are many things that cannot be explained. He vaguely felt that something was wrong with South Korea that might be going on against the state of Chu, but it was just his sensitive nerves.

Changsha of Chu.

"General, I've found something to do business with." Xiang Bo said excitedly to Xiang Yan.

The current position of the Chu State Navy is very embarrassing, and the same is true of Xiang's enterprise. Although Xiang Yan had already issued an order, not to allow more Chu people to go to Qin. But there is no way, the domestic taxes of Chu are too high. The oppressive force in the country is too great, and many nobles know that they can make a lot of money by selling people to their relatives, so a large number of Chu people still came to the Qin State, not only that, but Xiang's enterprises are also typed into it, so that Xiang's enterprises will be in an extremely embarrassing situation.

However, in order to salvage such an unfavorable situation. Xiang Yan ordered them to look for an alternative business. Xiang Bo thought about it seriously. And carefully visited with the merchants of Chu State, and finally had his own idea.

"What business?" Xiang Yan asked.

"Tea, sugar, and silk, these things can make a lot of money by selling them to the Qin State." Xiang Bo said.

"Hmm. We don't have any of these things. Xiang Yan said.

"We can enter, there are now many merchants who are smuggling, and the nobles have set up quite a lot of tax cards on the road to the north, and the taxes are really too much. A lot of businessmen are smuggling, and if we can get involved, there will be a lot of profit. Xiang Bo said.

"We smuggle?" Xiang Yan asked.

"Actually, it's not smuggling, we're just avoiding the tax cards of those nobles." Xiang Bo said.

"I heard that in the Wuyue area, the price of silk is very cheap, and the price of sugar is also very cheap, but in the north, the price will quickly soar to a hundred times the profit, which is a huge profit." Xiang Bo said.

"There are so many?" Xiang Yan didn't think of it herself. Tea, sugar, and silk are so profitable.

"If we don't smuggle, we'll pay taxes to those nobles all at once, and we'll be crazy." Xiang Bo said.

"We don't have much profit in the first place, and we give it to them all at once, so we have to smuggle it over." Xiang Bo said.

"We have a great advantage, we start from Changsha, and then follow the Yangtze River all the way east to Wuyue, buy goods from Wuyue, and then go north along the sea route to reach Qi, so that our tea, sugar, and silk can be sold and make a lot of money." Xiang Bo suggested.

"Hmm." Xiang Yan nodded. He was wondering if it was worth it.

The problem of military spending has always been a major problem that plagues the development of the navy, relying on agricultural taxes is obviously unable to meet the expansion of the navy, this Xiang Yan has been very clear, a bullet will consume a lot of fiscal taxes, if replaced by agricultural taxes, the cost will be greater, therefore, the biggest source of finance and taxation still needs to rely on commercial taxes, but at present, the state of Chu can only do business with the people of Qin, and the nobles block the road to the north. As a result, goods from the south could not flow to the north, which was a huge crisis for the south.

"General, as long as we solve this problem, then the problems behind it will be solved." Xiang Bo said.

"That's all we're going to do now. Make use of the ships in our hands, otherwise, our ships will be useless without going to sea. It is difficult to use. Xiang Bo then suggested.

Xiang Yan nodded. Agreed.

"Our navy has been docked on the dock, and if it continues, our navy will be a pile of rotten wood. We can't fight in the jungle, and we don't have a lot of money in our hands, and if we continue like this, we will be trapped to death. At present, there is only one way, and this method is that we smuggle and cover a large number of merchant ships to do business, so that we have the value of existence, and the navy of Chu can develop and grow. Xiang Bo said.

"Hmm. There must be a business. You're right. Xiang Yan thought about it and said.

"We have to change. Just do as you say, smuggling. We are involved in smuggling. Xiang Yan decided. If it continues like this, Xiang Yan's army will be completely broken, and there will really be no strength to rise again at that time.
