Zhen Qian is not a reckless person, just a little forward-looking before everything, and is used to thinking about things very complicated, in fact, some things are like pies falling from the sky, and he has taken **** luck, the more he thinks, the more wrong he is, this kind of thing can only be said to be a plan in the sky.

The trip to the Wa Kingdom was not deliberately done by Zhen Qian, and in all respects, now is not the best time to take a trip to the Wa Kingdom, but a series of occasional incidents have pushed him to the forefront, and now he has no chance to regret it.

"Then we're going to sit back and wait now?" Fujiwara said bitterly.

"Not necessarily?" Zhen Qian pointed at the busy businessmen and said, "Do you think they will sit still?" ”

Fujiwara Shuxiong's eyes lit up, the excitement on his face turned red, and he slammed his fist on the ground and said, "Zhen Lang is right, bringing them together, there is indeed the strength to fight?" ”

"That's right!" Zhen Qian stood up and patted Fujiwara Shuxiong on the shoulder and said, "Shao Er Dongshang wants to kill you very much, you also want to get rid of Shao Er Dongshang, why don't you take advantage of this opportunity to never suffer in the future?" ”

"So what do we do now?"

"What we need to do now is to gather all these businessmen, and you personally explain the whole thing to them, at this time, the most feared thing is that there are people at both ends of the rat's tail, or they can't work together, although these businessmen only have money in their eyes, but they also know when to stand on that side, if you can't convince them, I'm afraid we have to go our separate ways?"

Fujiwara Shuxiong blinked his eyes and said: "Why don't you say these words, you are the lord of the Tang Dynasty, these people are also businessmen of the Tang Dynasty, your words should be more convincing than mine, right?" ”

I know that Fujiwara Shuxiong is better than a ghost, and he likes to talk about people who leave half and half of them want to deceive!

"What do you think I can promise these merchants?" Zhen Qian said unceremoniously: "These businessmen are helping you, you don't think that you can deceive these people with your rhetoric, if you don't want to, run away now, you may be able to escape from Feiqian Country alone?" ”

Fujiwara Shuxiong's face twitched violently, and it was very uncomfortable to be forced into a corner by Zhen Qian, but he was also a person who could afford to let it go, and he knew what to do now.

The principals of the various maritime merchants quickly gathered together, and at first they didn't know what they were called by Zhen Qian to do, but when Fujiwara Shuxiong explained the current situation, his face immediately changed, "What does this have to do with us Tang merchants, we don't want to interfere in this matter, sir, don't you say?" ”

"That's right! This is the Japanese people's own business, we are only here to do business, and we cannot mix this muddy water with ....... ”

“……”

When the merchants all complained about the end, Fujiwara Shuxiong found that none of the merchants were on his side, and then looked at Zhen Qian, hoping that he could help him say a word.

"Fujiwara-kun has already told me about the matter just now, now I will say a few words ......, right, you will think about it and then answer me", Zhen Qian asked several excited businessmen to sit down, and did not look at the angry Fujiwara Shuxiong and said: "What ......are you all working so hard to come to the Japanese country for?" ”

"Of course, to make money, otherwise what would we do with these sins?"

Zhen Qian ignored the businessman's noise and said: "This is natural, but have you found it, what is the most troublesome thing for you to do business in the Japanese country, or what hinders you from making your business bigger?" ”

"The sea route is difficult and long, and every time you go to sea is a test of life and death!"

"It's the exploitation of the Japanese merchants, and we maritime merchants will go back and forth to the Japanese at most twice a year, and each time we go together, but when we arrive in the Japanese country, we will have a chance to lower the price because of the sudden influx of goods?"

"It's customs duties, and three or four percent of our goods have to be used to pay taxes ......."

"Because we can't know what the Japanese need in time, some goods will die on the ground, and it is impossible to transport them back, so we can only sell them at a low price?"

“……”

When it comes to the difficulties of doing business, these maritime stewards always have endless bitterness in their stomachs, and if they are allowed to talk about it for a day and a night, I am afraid they will not be able to finish it.

"You have said so much, in fact, have you ever thought about how to solve the current dilemma, there are always more solutions than difficulties, don't you say?" Zhen Qian patiently enlightened and persuaded.

"Is the lord ready to help us solve the difficulties in business?"

Zhen Qian pointed his finger at Fujiwara Shuxiong on the side and said: "It is he who helps you solve the difficulties in doing business with the Japanese country, I am just a matchmaker in the middle, you help Fujiwara-kun, Fujiwara-kun naturally has to help you, this is what it looks like to prepare for long-term cooperation?" ”

"Thousands of miles of business is only for money, can Fujiwara-kun help us businessmen make money?" There was a burst of laughter, and Fujiwara's face darkened.

Zhen Qian patted the handrail and said angrily: "Could it be that you only have money in your heart, and you haven't thought about long-term plans, such as renting a place near the Wa Kingdom as a warehouse for maritime merchants, or directly buying a small island as a transit point for you to do business with the Wa Kingdom, you won't think about these things, your vision is so short-sighted!" ”

The matter of leasing the territory of other countries will not happen until a thousand years later when the Portuguese enter Macao in the Ming Dynasty, and Zhen Qian does not mind reminding these maritime stewards by mistake at this time.

"Sir, you said that we maritime merchants can buy land in the Wa Kingdom, is this possible?"

It was not that these maritime stewards were short-sighted, but that this kind of thing never happened, and the Tang Dynasty strictly forbade the Hu people (foreigners) in their edicts to "induce" Han women as wives and concubines, or to impersonate Han Chinese in any way, and also forbidden foreigners in the Tang Dynasty to buy land and property.

"This may not have been possible before, but now it should be possible", Zhen Qian looked at Fujiwara Shuxiong and said: "This time you help Fujiwara-kun, Fujiwara-kun should have something in return, we don't want any good place in the Wa country, just a small island, even in the Tang Dynasty, no one will take care of it, this condition is nothing for the Wa country, but for the maritime merchants, there is a foothold in the Wa country, even if it is not easy to sell goods temporarily, it can also be placed in the warehouse on the island, I don't need to look at the eyes of those Japanese businessmen, do you think what I said makes sense? ”

"Island...... Warehouse, haven't we changed from a merchant to a sitting merchant, is this kind of thing possible? ”

Zhen Qian was grabbed by a maritime steward and said, "Sir, can Fujiwara-kun call the shots in this matter?" If we help Fujiwara-kun now, what if Fujiwara-kun doesn't admit it afterwards, or what if Wakuni doesn't admit it, this matter must be ......considered in the long run. ”
