Five hundred and seventy-five merchants' might
The merchant's merchant ship came very slowly, and after all the warships had run away, the merchant's ship came staggeringly. There are so many things in it, the goods are secondary, and the food and all kinds of small things take up a lot. Not to mention tea, cloth, porcelain, ornaments, and even furniture. Liu Zhang can't understand it, you actually bring furniture when you are doing business abroad, do you have a head case to clamp the door? But in fact, the next thing made Liu Zhang speechless, this is probably the moon abroad is very round? Even the air is sweet, and that's how Dahan feels now......
"The ship ......is coming," Lu Xun waited for several days, and today the merchant ships lined up and finally arrived. With the shouting of the boatman, the islanders who came to work from afar were almost there.
These nearly 100 merchant ships really made these people look stupid. There were also officials from the island countries who came, but when they saw this, they were really a little confused. This is a little too much, I'm afraid that the ships of the entire island country don't add up to so much, right?
Lu Xun took the soldiers to watch from the periphery, and they only needed to maintain order. Soon an official came over: "My lord, the Son of Heaven has spoken... Stability, development, and raw material supply. Lu Xun, who was on the side of these words, immediately understood, this message was very Liu Zhang.
Lu Xun nodded to indicate that he understood, and looked at these merchant ships and couldn't help but say, "This is really a lot, it's really spectacular." Lu Xun couldn't help but sigh at this scene, His Majesty's wrist was too strong.
But the messenger laughed and said, "Your Excellency is wrong, it's just that there are not enough boats." If there are enough ships, why is it difficult to come with 200 ships? If it weren't for the fear of danger, the boat would not be used, I'm afraid it would be more. After going back this time, there will be two more trips to finish transporting things from Shanghai. "When it comes to feats, that's pretty much it.
Lu Xun was stunned for a moment, shook his head and said, "Your Majesty's wrist ...... Hurry up and unload, the water prepared here, let the soldiers eat and drink enough to leave. "Everyone is busy, there are so many things to do that there is no time for a drink.
The unloading began, and there were a lot of new wooden carts here, and the horses were barely enough. A large number of goods are being transported to nearby temporary docks, and these people in the island nation still have to pay close attention, and petty theft is absolutely indispensable. Once found, catch it and beat it up first, and then go to work......
Beimi Fangzi also rushed over: "My lord doesn't know when Han Tianzi will arrive?" "For that Liu Zhang to come in person, Beimi Fangzi is still looking forward to it.
Lu Xun said lightly: "There is still some time before the New Year, and His Majesty will arrive in about a month later." I wonder what happened to the notification of the kings to come here for the rally? "It's very poor here, at least that's how Lu Xun sees it. However, he inquired later, and the monarch here was really rich. Although it was useless to have so much money, they really saved too much money. In the past, Lu Xun felt that saving money was a precaution after all, but now he felt that it was not money that existed there...... OK brainwashing was successful.
"All the notices have been made, and General Zhou has led his troops forward, and all the surrounding monarchs will come in three days." Yoshiko looked at those goods, and to be honest, she wanted them all, and she didn't lack money, but she couldn't buy them before.
Lu Xun nodded and said, "Let your soldiers be busy, and tell them that after the work is done, everyone will go there to get something." "Some old rice and some vermicelli are rewards, these things have been stored in Jingzhou for a long time, and the grain is a little bit bad. But I couldn't finish it for a while, so I simply transported it all.
A busy day has only unloaded more than thirty ships, and the rest seems to have to spend the night at the seaside. The islanders who got off work hurried to get their things one by one. As long as you work, you will have food, which was unimaginable before. Looking at the white rice in the bag, and the big bundle of sticks that I don't know what they were, but they said that this can be eaten when boiled in the dish...... For them, as long as they can eat what they are.
Seeing that there were still many women among them, Lu Xun also sighed. In the Han Dynasty, women also lived hard, but many of them did some relatively idle work, and later the lord found a lot of light jobs for women, and they were much happier than the women here.
But the progress of this work, it should be almost busy in three days? It can be seen that many people came to see it on the first day, and with the distribution of food, many people feel that it is really okay, and more people should come to work tomorrow.
In fact, it is true that the soldiers can be ordered under the humble fence, but there is no pressure on the people. But after the people who went back on the first day received a lot of food, the local people came to line up early the next morning, and Lu Xun even saw a lot of old people with sharp eyes...
The elderly should also use it, as long as they come to work. I can't do heavy work, but I can do boiling water. In this way, you can also help to do something, and finally give some food and send it away. Of course, if you want to rely on the old and sell the old here, it is completely impossible to make jokes. The people who dare to make trouble here have not yet appeared, which makes it a bit difficult to kill chickens and monkeys.
However, it is naturally best if no one makes trouble, and now looking at these goods, Lu Xun is still quite emotional. If Liu Zhang comes, this must be a sweep, where will commodities speak? It's just that Liu Zhang couldn't come, so he simply came by soft means. It's said to be soft, but it's actually a bit like dealing with garbage......
After two days of overtime, the 100 ships were completed. There was nothing good to send back, only some raw materials, which were collected temporarily, but they were not empty. Watching the cargo ship go back, Lu Xun sighed that it was really busy and that it had only started now.
The makeshift meeting has the feel of a later wet market, but it is not so well decorated, and it is all made of improvised wood. Lu Xun looked around, these big family merchants have already begun to prepare to load goods here, and there are many people who are soliciting people in a nonsense island Chinese dialect.
To talk about motivation, these businessmen learn languages really fast. It's just a few days to talk nonsense with the people here, and ordinary people are all recruited for work, and they exchange labor for extremely low prices. What's even more excessive is that there are several capable big families who have directly opened workshops here......
This point is not forbidden by Lu Xun, as long as they have the ability to follow the rules, they will not interfere with what Lu Xun does. But if they don't follow the rules, Lu Xun will definitely cut them. As the third day approached, the monarchs and daimyo from all over the country rushed here. The dog slave country seems to be getting more and more lively, and there are more people to have a prosperous feeling.
"Today, the monarchs of all countries are here, and they must ensure the safety of this place, and all those who come in to make trouble are pulled out and cut down. It is important to ensure the safety of the entire assembly...... "Standing on the platform, Lu Xun held a meeting with the lieutenants below, this is the first time he has presided over such a scene, and he must not mess it up."
With the opening of the venue, to Lu Xun's surprise, the first batch of people who came in was none other than people from the Dog Slave Country. A large part of them were the families of the newly married soldiers, and the soldiers told them that they could buy things here and that they could not buy them, which eventually led these ladies to start buying. No one is stupid, and since they have a family, they naturally have to think about this family.
The best seller is not anything else, but the grain. For these women, men's money is not easy, and they can buy these foods if they can. However, Lu Xun's face was strange, these soldiers were used to eating these things, if he went back and his wife was making these vermicelli and the like, that face would be ...... Tsk, very happy.
In any case, if you can sell it, you will sell it. It doesn't matter if you pit your own people or not, other men in the island country have also bought a lot. This is still the money they pay for their work these days, some people ask for food, some people ask for wages, and that's no problem.
The assembly was carried out, and in the afternoon, the kings of the countries also arrived. These are said to be kings, and most of them are a small country with thousands of people. But what people don't understand is that these small countries are really rich. Even quite a few monarchs came with boxes. This made Lu Xun unable to understand, is there any point in saving so much money? Can't eat or flower, but still have it, isn't it sick?
For these monarchs, Lu Xun felt that those exquisite porcelain and all kinds of delicious food should be the first choice. To his surprise, luxury goods are selling well. A huge mirror, can you believe it costs a few hundred gold? Even if this kind of mirror is not enough to sell, they are still fighting for it themselves? Even Yoshiko Himami bought one, and for those luxury goods that he couldn't figure out, he simply didn't sell too well. Sure enough, there are minerals that can be capricious, that is, they can do whatever they want?
And then there's cloth, tea, porcelain, furniture, and the like? But I don't know how to make furniture, don't they? In short, Lu Xun, who was secretly observing, recorded frantically in his little book, and he didn't understand what these people thought. However, this does not affect his secret observation, and after recording it, he will sell things according to this standard. I heard that many workshops have been opened in these industries, but why are there still not enough products?
The reason why luxury is luxury is that it is something that makes others think that it is a good thing, but it is not very useful, but it is something that I like very much. So there were many people who bought them, especially these kings, who were people of status, and even more so wealthy people, and these things were necessary to match them. So these men came here with a large amount of gold and silver to make purchases. There is a huge silver mine in the island country, which has not yet been discovered, but there are many other silver mines and gold mines, and these people trade money they don't care about for what they think is the best. Such deals continue today, and the money comes all too easily......
