The Ming Dynasty was very weak, but no matter how weak the tiger was, it was still a tiger, and just a little taste could scare away a group of small animals. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 infoWhat's more, these little animals have a bunch of problems at home, no less than Da Ming.

The art of war is about knowing oneself and knowing one's opponent, not overestimating oneself and not overestimating one's enemy. Tang Yi also did not intend to annex land, but he wanted to open up trade in Fu, and he had to pay attention to the cost of doing things, compared with fighting a war that might destroy the country, trade did not seem to be so difficult.

Tang Yi gave an order to Li Chengliang, the commander-in-chief of Liaodong, and asked him to take people to the Yalu River for a few turns, so that the opposite side could appreciate the demeanor of the Ming dragoons.

Then he instructed Xu Bangyang to hire five or six hundred Japanese pirates, land from Busan, and kill them all the way north.

Tang Yi only wanted to learn a small lesson, but he didn't expect that Li Chaoyuan was much weaker than he imagined, and five hundred would-be robbers burned and looted all the way, as if they were in a no-man's land. After killing for more than a month, the Li Dynasty concentrated more than 30,000 people, but lost more than 4,000 soldiers, and let this gang of Japanese robbers escape.

God is pitiful, Tang Yi really just wanted to scare and scare Li Chao, but he didn't think that this time the action attracted the attention of the islanders on the other side of the strait.

Originally, a group of guys killed a few large villages in the dark, and they couldn't get along. Suddenly, I found that not far away, across the sea, there was a big meat bun with oil, and it was terrible.

They are like black bears that have suddenly woken up from hibernation, wiping their mouths full of saliva. What are we still tossing, just go and rob the neighbors. The direct result of this time is that the "Imjin Rebellion" came much earlier than in history......

It's just that Tang Yi didn't care about those children at the moment, starting from Songjiang, a total of 100 merchant ships, loaded with goods, crossed the ocean and anchored on Jeju Island.

These merchant ships are all armed, and if they don't agree with each other, they can go to war.

Faced with the Ming army's attack on both land and sea, Li Chao quickly bowed his head and promised to open Jeju Island as a free trade zone. At the same time, he also promised to send the prince to the Ming Dynasty to meet the Longqing Emperor.

It's unimaginable how easy success came by.

The court of the Ming Dynasty was still immersed in surprise, and the simple and rough external mode made them very uncomfortable, and everyone chose to avoid this topic.

But the merchants didn't care, they only knew that the backlog of goods had finally been sold.

Huang Fuyang carried two merchant ships this time, loaded with 50,000 horses of woolen wool that was originally intended to be exported to the West, and his goods were pressed in Songjiang for a year, fortunately, after having cement, he was able to build a huge and waterproof warehouse, otherwise these things would be moldy. He saw with his own eyes that people's silk had been blistered and discolored, and that the tea leaves were rotten, and that the poor fellows could not find a place to cry.

He was lucky, when Tang Yi was the governor of Xuanda, Huang Fuyang took the risk of acting as a messenger to meet me and lost two toes.

had this fate, and Tang Yi was unwilling to let Jin Shang swallow the huge profits of woolen alone. He instructed the Suncheon Bank to provide a loan to Huang Fuyang, and he built 20 wool mills, capable of producing 100,000 woolen woolen wool per year.

Who knew that as soon as it was produced, overseas trade routes would be cut off.

Huangfu Yang almost jumped into a well, carrying millions of loans, and there was no market for things, isn't this going to kill him? Lord Tang, you turn stones into gold, you can't fool me!

Fortunately, Wu Tiancheng helped to say hello, let him calm down for a while, and also helped contact the warehouse. Although he was fine for the time being, he was carrying a Mount Tai on his shoulder, and Huangfu Yang sighed, and he became a little old man, almost dying of depression.

Finally, the time has come to get started, and the turning point has arrived.

He was a northerner, and he didn't like to ride a boat the most, but this time he gritted his teeth and went to sea in person. It's too unreliable to point out those Xiyi, and you have to take everything into your own hands. It's all the same people, Lao Tzu doesn't discriminate between people!

It's been half a month since he went to sea, and Huang Fuyang has lost almost fifteen pounds. He swore that if he had another chance, he would never come out!

Hoping for a brief moment of calm, he lazily lay on the deck, took a sea bowl from the drunken sailor, and poured a large sip of cloudy rice wine.

When sailing on the sea, clear water will deteriorate in three to five days, and it is difficult to swallow, so alcohol has become the best drink, which can keep out the cold and quench thirst, and all sailors are complete drunkards.

"Brother, I'll bring you some Shanxi Fenjiu when I go back, it's more energetic than this!"

Huang Fuyang did not hesitate to write the check, he didn't seem to care if he could cash it or not.

In fact, he had already thought about it, if this trip failed, he would have to jump into the sea and die, no promises, debts, all aside!

If he succeeds, he will catch the cash cow, the cornucopia, not to mention a drink, even if you invite everyone to the Qinglou, there is no problem.

The sailors had no time to speculate in his heart, they were just concerned about whether the ship could arrive safely, the weather was getting colder and colder, and there was no work for most of the year, if this trip was successful, they could also get a sum of silver, and the wife and children at home would be able to have a good year, otherwise...... If you don't do it, you're going to go to sea to be a pirate.

In fact, many of them have followed Wang Zhi before, and it is not difficult to return to their old business.

With all sorts of thoughts, a huge island appeared in front of me.

Finally down-to-earth, Huang Fuyang cried excitedly for a long time, as if he was really the rest of his life.

About five miles from the wharf, there is a huge open space, and a temporary trading place has been built out of wooden planks, and there are almost 500 stalls.

Huang Fuyang came early, he grabbed a side position, paid five hundred taels of silver, and rented the right to use it for fifteen days.

It's really damn expensive, the best shop on Chessboard Heavenly Street doesn't have this price.

However, Huang Fuyang did not hesitate, he was full of confidence from the moment he landed on the island. Tang Xiangye has always been clever, and most of the things he arranged will not be bad. This is not good for some merchants who feel sorry for the silver, and after a little hesitation, they lose their best position, so they can only wait in the corner, or set up a stall casually.

"I can't even afford to spend five hundred taels, I'm really not a person who does big business!"

Huang Fuyang shook his head and sighed, he rested for three days, the day of official trade finally came, the day was not yet coming, the big lamps of whale oil on the dock were burning, and a large circle of Korean merchants walked forward on solid ground, and soon found something unusual.

The section of the road for more than two miles is actually paved with stones, extremely hard, in the end, it is the kingdom, it is powerful, it has only been a long time, and a stone road has been built.

It's just that this stone road is so amazing, there is no gap, it is a piece, what a stone is this, how did they do it?

The more I thought about it, the more amazing it became, someone actually lay on the ground, touched it with his hand, it was cold and hard, and it hurt to knock hard. It's as hard as a stone, but it's not in the right shape, what the hell is it? opened his mouth wide, took a bite, broke his two front teeth, and screamed in pain.

The businessman's funny behavior, the soldier next to him strained his face and forced a smile, isn't it just a cement road? It's so rare and weird!

When the day dawned, the merchants looked back and saw a long gray-white road, winding like a dragon, extending to the wharf, and it was on this road that they came to the trading area.

What an amazing road, what an amazing feat.

Only in Da Ming can someone have such magical power!

The excited crowd knelt on the ground and kept kowtowing.

Others carefully took off their boots and walked slowly along the road, their eyes mesmerized and the look of great enjoyment. The sailors of the Ming Dynasty really don't understand the beauty of the cold weather, barefoot, and they are not afraid of freezing and kidney deficiency!

They walked along the cement road with their feet full of mud and water, and placed the exquisite goods on the stalls.

What a solid ground, such a heavy car, without leaving ruts, not afraid of muddy water, not deformed, what a great thing.

The businessmen who came from behind did not dare to walk on the cement road, so they could only be on both sides, with admiration, their eyes constantly wandering on the cement road, and from time to time they gave out praise.

Huang Fuyang and the others almost crooked their noses, they brought such a good thing, but the limelight was stolen by a temporary cement road, what is it! Huang Fuyang wondered if he had chosen the wrong line, and he would not weave wool wool in the future, but burn cement instead.

He was just complaining in his heart. Soon there was no effort, and the merchants rushed to the stalls with a roar, looking at the good things in their eyes, and salivating from the elders.

One word: Buy!

However, they were not as bold as the Western merchants, and they had silver in their pockets.

Fortunately, Huang Fuyang and the others were also tossed and ruthless, what is it!

Silver is fine, grain is fine, and even Korean ginseng is fine......

There was a lot of bargaining everywhere, and there were constantly deals being negotiated, and everyone was so happy that they couldn't keep their mouths shut.

Huangfuyang's 50,000 woolen wool, due to the gradual cold weather, the demand has increased greatly, and it is very popular with all parties, and each horse is sold for 30 taels of silver, which is 50% more expensive than silk, so angry that Suzhou merchants have no temper.

One and a half million taels of silver, of course, the other party couldn't take out so much money, Huang Fuyang only got 500,000 taels of silver, 20,000 taels of gold, and the rest were grain, Korean ginseng, wood, jewelry, fur and other things.

Everything went well, not to mention that his loan could be repaid, and he also made a net profit of 20,000 taels of gold and 500,000 taels of silver.

His eyes are full of little stars, and Lao Tzu still has to invest in expanding production!

Huang Fuyang shouted loudly.

The merchants who came this time were almost all like this, beaming with joy and God blessing, and not a single ship had an accident, and when the moon was over, they rode the northeast monsoon and returned to Songjiang.

The wharf, which had been silent for a long time, finally ushered in laughter, and the boatmen took off their shirtless, their muscles and flesh shining with oil, and carried the goods off the ship and piled them into a hill.

Immediately, there were waiting businessmen coming, and after taking over, they were transported to various places, and the bank staff was handling the settlement, the car and ship shops were smashing and moving things, and the wine, rice and tea shops were open to welcome guests from all over the world.

Everything seemed to come to life, and the haze that had lasted for a year finally began to dissipate...... (To be continued.) )
