The construction of Luokoucang Laba had already been completed, and those servicemen were soon conscripted to build Huiluocang seven miles north of the eastern capital, and the people of the eastern capital habitually ignored the labor of the servicemen, but selectively watched the prosperity of the Great Sui - didn't they? The current stock of the Great Sui can't even fit 3,000 grain cellars, so we need to build more warehouses and dig more grain cellars.

"Do you know how much grain can be stored in the granary of Luokoucang?"

"I think, why do you have to put seven or eight thousand stones?"

"Seven or eight thousand? That's just the amount of one bite, and you multiply it by a thousand, you know how much? ”

"I'm not one of the accountants in Dongdu Qianzhuang who can crack the abacus, how can I figure it out? But I think how can these grains be eaten by our Dasui people for decades. ”

"What you say is true, our Dasui is now wealthy, and it is not much better than the rule of Wenjing in the former Han Dynasty."

This is the most common conversation heard in Kyoto's sake shops, these people eat soup cakes for two pennies a bowl and drink bad liquor for three pennies a pound, but they are full of patriotic determination, as if the strength of the motherland can make them full without eating. But at this moment, the servant who is building Huiluocang is miserable.

"If I knew that this labor time was so long, it would be better to spend some money."

"Yes, the money is not very valuable now, how can you earn it in two months with these few pieces of labor money, it is said that the eastern capital is very lively now, and there is gold everywhere."

"Have you ever seen gold? However, Kyoto is indeed prosperous, and I just came back from Kyoto a while ago, and there are many singing and dancing in various districts, and there are hundreds of opera stages set up everywhere on the street, and it doesn't cost a penny to watch them perform. ”

"Is it that good? We're going to finish it soon, so why don't we go to the eastern capital and go home." ”

"Isn't that right? Since the World Expo was held in the Eastern Capital, barbarians from all over the world have come from all over the world to congratulate His Majesty, and they have come to the capital to eat and live for free. ”

"Really? Do we have that much food? When I was in Luokoucang, I saw that although some grain cellars were labeled full, they actually didn't have much grain in them, and some of the grain was more than ten years old, and it was so moldy that it was impossible to eat at all. ”

"Shh......h These words are heard, and they will be ....... As the man spoke, he gestured with his hand before he uttered the last three words, "Kaza." ”

I was happy to say it just now, but when I heard him say it one by one, I quickly shrunk my neck, as if the knife had really reached my neck. Seeing the patrolling guards coming over neatly, he quickly lowered his head and dug into the snow with his hoe.

The imperial court also ushered in Chinese New Year's Eve in such a busy situation, when Emperor Yang Guangzheng of Sui was sitting in the Great Industry Hall reading the ensemble and worship watch he had just brought it, and his expression was more smiling. If the Guanfeng Xingdian and Liuhe Castle made by Yu Wenkai and He Chou will be necessary for his home travel in the coming year, the new weapons presented by Yuwen Zhihe and the horseshoe compass made by Su You are undoubtedly his sharp weapons for expanding his territory in the future, plus the three-volume "Atlas of the Western Regions" presented by Pei Shiju, the squire of the Yellow Gate, which records the dangers and dangers of the mountains and rivers of the forty-four countries in the Western Regions.

"It's a great cause." Emperor Yang Guang of Sui couldn't hide his happiness and said to himself excitedly.

Yang Er also secretly met with the Roman Bude in Taibai Mansion in a joyful atmosphere, the latter was undoubtedly a greedy person, he had planned to do a big vote, so he resolutely became a fake and shoddy envoy of Great Qin, but Su You saw it at a glance; However, Yang Er quickly pointed out the direction for him, in addition to relying on the method of tribute to obtain ten times the profit, there was another method that was more suitable for him, that is, to get a ship ten times larger.

It seems that Yang Er doesn't care about Bard's greed, as long as the other party has a clear request, he can grasp the handle, but it is the most difficult person to control who has no desires and no desires, which is probably the reason why he and Su You are separated, right?

"You mean you can sell me a ship? Oh my God, great and merciful prince, may your servants not be dreaming. Bard learned about Yang Er's identity as a prince in Su You's concise introduction, and after greeting each other, he frankly said his current predicament, at this time, hearing that the prince in front of him was willing to help, he was so excited that he wanted to kiss Yang Er's shoes, but in view of the fact that the two had just met, he didn't dare to make people feel that they were too presumptuous.

"No, maybe you have misunderstood, this king is not to sell you ships, but to sponsor you, yes, you heard you right, it is a free sponsorship, not just a ship, but a fleet." Yang Er was very happy to see Bard's table, and he also seemed to see profit.

"Great, invincible, invincible ......" Bard was trying to search his mind for a compliment that could be used on Yang Er, but was ruthlessly interrupted by Su You, "Dear Bard, I think you can put away your Roman humility, we Great Sui people have always been more pragmatic. After saying this, Su You suddenly thought of the Chinese people in later generations, and couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed, when did we start being pragmatic? Perhaps, now?

"Well, well, I just want to say that His Highness is really generous, but what does Bard need to give?" Bud is a businessman who only believes in fair trade, but he never knows what a free lunch is, and now when he hears the pie thrown by Yang Er, it is still hot, and of course he will not get carried away and swallow it in one bite.

"You don't have to pay anything, because I have also privately prepared some goods to sell overseas, and in order to ensure the safety of the goods, it is obviously necessary to send some guards, who do nothing but travel with you. Of course, since you have paid tribute to the imperial court, I think that the imperial court should also have an envoy to pay a return visit, right? "Yang Er had already planned with Su You to provide a fleet for Bard, and his own requirements were so low, Bard obviously had no reason to refuse.

Of course, Bard also knew what Yang Er meant, and it was understandable to provide the fleet and send people to monitor him at the same time, besides, from Yang Er's words, he heard the conviction of this tribute, and it was obvious that his adventure was about to pay off.

"Of course, my esteemed prince, your servant is willing to serve you." Bud bowed again, and their cooperation was reached.

So at the end of the song, Bard walked away half drunk happily, but he didn't have any drunkenness at all when he got out of Taibai Building, of course, these were all seen by Qiao Lingze's eyeliner. At this time, Yang Er and the others in the private room also turned around from half-drunk, and began to discuss the export of goods and escort personnel, at present, Yang Er can mobilize the troops of the two guards, which is 20,000 people, which he inherited from the crown prince Yang Zhao, Yang Guang turned a blind eye to this, but to send troops to the sea, it seems that he should say hello to Emperor Yang Guang of Sui, and this seems to be a good thing, His Majesty has no reason to refuse.

As for the goods exported, it seems that there is really nothing to be done except porcelain and tea.

"The flow of wealth is with the plants, grain, silkworms, tea, cane sugar, opium, rubber, oil...... Isn't oil just rotting seaweed? Of course, wealth is also a double-edged sword, if a country does not have enough force to match wealth, it will lead to wars of aggression, such as the Song Dynasty and the Qing Dynasty......" Su You fell into deep thought, I don't know what the military strength of Western countries is today?

"Transverse waves?" Liu Jianzhi saw that Su You was in a daze, and frowned slightly, because Yang Er had toasted everyone just now, and Su You had no reaction.

"Ah, Your Highness, Su You was a little distracted just now, it's really ......" Su You quickly stood up and hurriedly drank three cups to show his reparation.

Yang Er didn't care, and said warmly, "Hengbo must have thought of some good way." ”

"Actually, Su You thought that this was the first time we went to the West from the sea, and the economic benefits were secondary, the important thing was that we had to accumulate experience, listen and watch more, and see what others needed and we could take it out. I'm ashamed to say that just now I thought of a romantic figure in the two Jin Dynasty. Su You talked about it for a while, but finally didn't talk about the substantive issues.

"What's the shame of thinking of a romantic person? Is it a transverse wave that wants to be compared to it? This is not necessary, it is already two different eras. ”

"That's not true, in fact, Su You just remembered to eat sugar cane."

"Haha, Gu Changkang is eating sugarcane, right? First the tail and then the head, I can understand the meaning of the horizontal wave. Of course, Yang Er remembered this allusion, and thought that Su You had borrowed the allusion to advise, so he accepted it very sincerely, so that Wang Zhen, Liu Jianzhi and the others couldn't help nodding, thinking that they had met the master.

Su You nodded, and didn't know where to start, it seemed that he still had to investigate the market first.
