Chapter XXXIII

"That cloud is waiting for good news," Zhao Yun was overjoyed: "It seems that we will be in-laws in the near future, and we should take Yuan Zhi to the door to propose marriage." โ€

Cai Mao only smiled bitterly, and he couldn't speak. is such a nymphomaniac that even a fool can see that she has taken a fancy to Xu Shu.

In his heart, he was not satisfied with this family business, after all, Yuan Zhi was not yet famous. What he likes is Zhao Yun, but the Xun family is already in front of the jade, and it is impossible for the daughter of the Cai family to be a concubine.

Suddenly full of entanglement, I had to think about going home to annoy the old man.

Returning to his seat, Zhang Ji squeezed his eyebrows: "Brother Zilong has negotiated?" I have heard that the little lady of the adult family is famous, and her appearance is beautiful, and she is honest and not deceived by me. โ€

"Naturally!" The people of Nanyang County specially vacated four seats, and Zhao Yun really didn't have much interest in being with the people of Nanyang County: "Yuan Zhi, are you satisfied with this woman?" โ€

"He? She? Xu Shu was dumbfounded.

Since she is a girl, if you take a closer look, the little lady of the Cai family is picturesque, although she is underage, she is a beauty, although there is some unruly color between her eyebrows, it is harmless.

What are you kidding, even a little woman can't be even, then it's not Xu Shu.

"As long as the Cai family agrees, it's all up to the lord!" He wanted to go home and tell his mother to make a decision again, but remembering that Zhending and Nanjun were far away, and the daylilies were cold when they came and went.

As soon as he said this, even Huang Zhong, who was depressed, was not only embarrassed.

"Brothers!" Zhao Yun smiled for a moment and stood up: "Earlier, Yun Zeng said that he came to Jingzhou to do business with everyone, I wonder if my brother and others have forgotten?" โ€

"No!" Ma Bing's mood was agitated: "What Mr. Zilong wants, Ma should give it away at the cost!" โ€

An opportunity to have a good relationship with the Zhao family, it is really determined that the Zhao family is far away in Hebei, and the business has already arrived in Jingzhou.

What's more, the Zhao family in Shu County is much closer, and they all take water transportation, and there are no water thieves in the future. Even if there is, the name of the Zhao family in Shu County can make all evils easy and retreat.

Originally, the opening of a restaurant, the locals didn't care much. Then the impact of lodging and salt made everyone dizzy.

When someone found out that they wanted to suppress it, they found that they had already become a behemoth.

As soon as Ma Bing's words came out, he knew that it was bad, he was a trader's house, and no one else spoke.

"Thank you, Brother Ma, for your righteousness!" Zhao Yun didn't expect this guy to be just right like a nursery.

"It's no secret that my Zhao family is based on business." He changed his words: "In ancient times, Tao Zhu Gong and Meiyu were in front, and the Yun family did not dare to trespass far behind. Today, Yun came to Jingzhou to discuss maritime affairs with you! โ€

Since Fan Li's ancestors have been moved out, everyone has no resistance in their hearts. No matter how awesome you are, can you compare to the generation of famous people who once helped Yue defeat Wu?

"Maritime?!" Huang Chengyan himself is an outlier of the Jingxiang clan, and he frowned: "Dare to ask Zilong if he said that he was doing business at sea?" โ€

It's really unacceptable, who do you sell things to at sea? Dragon King? Or are they ethereal immortals of Penglai? There are really immortals who don't eat fireworks in the world.

"It's the sea that you do business!" Zhao Yun nodded: "The sea is too big to imagine. With manpower alone, he can't finish his whole life, and if he uses the boat, he can reach as far as a foreign country. โ€

"Those who are rumored to be overseas are all outsiders." Pang Qilong was cautious, after all, he was not familiar with it: "They still drink blood, and even eat people, how can they do business?" โ€

"Brother Zhengjing said that it was a rumor," Zhao Yun said with a smile: "Before Jiaozhou was not naturalized, the ancestors probably thought so, but they were just tribes that were a little behind us." โ€

"Oh, Brother Pang, you're scared me to death, and you're still eating people!" Cai Da patted her chest with her small hand.

With the explanation of the lord and Zhang Ji, Xu Shu was suspicious, and when he saw Xiao Niang's little daughter doing it, he was sure that it was undoubtedly a girl.

If you really want to marry a man and go home, the Xu family will be embarrassed, and even the Zhong family will be humiliated.

Cai Mao looked at her big and transformed sister, frowned, and regretted bringing her to participate more and more. Alas, it wasn't brought with me, well, I didn't know that she was there until I was almost in a scribe's shirt.

"From the ancient books, the Yun family learned that starting from Jiaozhou, Yangzhou, Xuzhou, Qingzhou, Jizhou, and Youzhou, you can reach different places by sea."

Zhao Yun talked eloquently.

When Yun was a child, Su Shuang and Zhang Shiping's uncle, who had sold horses with his father, set sail at the mouth of the river for nine years. For nine years, every year, people have returned home to tell them that they are safe. โ€

In fact, the two did not strictly part ways, one of the brothers took the land route, the other took the sea route, echoing each other, every ten days and a half months, they were waiting in one place, and they were not separated.

The Zhao family did come back every six months to report safety.

On the day of departure, the Zhao family's financial resources were already the crown of Jizhou, and they purchased giant boats from Jiaozhou. The Zhao family's pawns are all third-rate and second-rate masters who have seen blood and cultivated the channeling technique.

Their voyage slowed down the rise of the Zhao family by at least two years.

When Zhao Yun was nine years old, the tentacles of the Zhao family slowly expanded, not because of financial resources, but because of the cultivation of talents.

Fortunately, the homeless people are everywhere, and the golden signboard of the Zhao family makes the homeless people flock to it.

"Zhao Long, the leader of the guards who carried Yun with him, is the one who returned from the voyage." Zhao Yun smiled: "He has only been home for three years. โ€

The only trouble with ocean trade in this era was the map and language, and how it didn't look like a later generation when you held it in your hand.

The name is also bizarre, what big bird island, small tree bay, bear den, not to see more clear than to see.

"Nine years?" The Jingxiang big and small families were petrified one by one.

What's that concept? The territory of the Han Dynasty is big enough, if you can sail everywhere, half a year is enough to go from south to north and from east to west.

Of course, Zhao Yun naturally wouldn't tell them how many wars the ocean-going team had gone through, purely as a colonial-like means.

At the beginning, whether it was Su Shuang or Zhang Shiping, they were very careful, after all, they were not familiar with life.

Gradually, I found that many places were too backward, and there were even ethnic groups with stone tools, so what are you waiting for? Conquer it!

"This, Brother Zilong, I really haven't experienced it!" Pang Qilong looked helpless: "The sea is really dangerous for us. โ€

"Yes," Cai Mao was also full of palpitations: "Once Mao was on the water, he encountered a strong wind and rain, and seven or eight out of ten people died in the family, and Mao himself almost ยทยทยทยทยทยท."

"Big brother, is that the time you had a high fever?" Cai Da has been told by her brother that she wants to get married, which is much more normal: "I was so young at that time, you refused to let you compensate me to play, and my father yelled at me for the first time." โ€

Even now you are not big, just a child, Cai Mao smiled bitterly in her heart, but she couldn't say it on her mouth.

"The clouds are thinking, the world is full of thrills." Zhao Yun took over the topic: "Thinking about the ancestors conquering nature, the first time they went into the water, they all thought that they would never return." โ€

"There is danger on the sea, and how can there be peace on the land? Dare to ask Brother Deqi, has the Cai family's income skyrocketed over the years? โ€

Cai Mao's face was difficult, but she still shook her head slowly.

"That's right!" Zhao Yun raised his eyebrows: "The business of each family on the land, the east family has one point, and the west family has one point less." Then let's look a little further and start from the sea to the other side. โ€

"Mr. Ke Zilong said that your caravan has not returned for nine years?" When it comes to business, Ma Bing is very rigorous, and at this time, it doesn't matter about his status, he is in business.

"The route of Uncle Su Shuang and Uncle Zhang Shiping is not our main direction in the future." Zhao Yun waved his hand: "On the other side of Qingzhou, it is the legendary Penglai." โ€

"It's just an uncivilized island country, when Xu Fu finally arrived there with five hundred boys and girls, his tomb is still there."

"Now, that place is called Yamatai or Dongying, and it's a queen!"

Queen? Cai Da's eyes lit up, looked at her brother, and quietly licked her tongue twice, unfortunately being seen by Xu Shu.

The two looked at each other, and their faces turned red.

Subsequently, Zhao Yun explained the general situation of Liuqiu, Yizhou, Johor, Zhenla, and Luzon.

Maritime trade is a completely new topic for everyone, and it will take time to digest it, and such a big matter must be reported to the parents at home, and it is not something that can be decided for a while.

"I've seen all of you!" Xu Xuan was at this time: "Welcome to Jingzhou, Brother Zilong!" โ€

He smiled and stared at Zhao Yun.
