When the city lord's mansion of the new southern city was completed in great anticipation, it entered the final decoration schedule. The ambassadors of Fanbang who stayed on the island also sighed that the mansion of the prince of the Great Song Dynasty was really luxurious and magnificent.

Compared with other houses in the New South City, this city lord's mansion is not only the highest location, but also the materials for decoration are extremely enviable. Outside the transparent glass window, it is even more covetous to these merchants who have finally bought a few pieces of Ming Tile.

Looking at these window panes that replace the cardboard, squarely inlaid on the windows, that is, the windproof effect is better than that of the cardboard, and the lighting is countless times better than the cardboard windows. As for the roof of the conference hall, hundreds of tiles were installed.

Even if you stand outside the City Lord's Mansion, you can see the light reflected by those glasses. In the eyes of merchants, it is difficult to find a tile, but this city lord's mansion is extravagant enough to use this kind of bright tile as an ordinary tile.

Most importantly, the glass used to make windows also looks very eye-catching. For this reason, not long after the renovation of the city lord's mansion, those maritime merchants and ambassadors of Fanbang applied to the Ministry of Rites to purchase this kind of glass.

Even if a piece of square glass has ten taels of silver, these merchants are not too expensive, and they have ordered and bought it. I hope that after I buy it back, I will replace all my windows with this kind of glass window as soon as possible.

For the new South City, some new things appear from time to time, and these Fanbang ambassadors also feel. If you stay here for a long time, no matter how much money you have, you will always be cleaned up one day.

However, these goods will never be sold abundantly. Even if you spend money to buy goods, you have to find relationships and favors to get the goods. Otherwise, it doesn't matter, even if you spend money, you have to wait for a while to get the goods.

The renovation phase began at the Castle Lord's Mansion. The shops leased by those merchants have also officially entered the stage of distribution. The dazzling array of Great Song goods began to fill the shops run by these merchants.

Many Fanbang ambassadors who love Song Dynasty goods know that the things sold in the shops in New South City are extremely expensive. But now these shops sell Da Song goods. The price is relatively affordable.

Some ambassadors from Fanbang, who were relatively close to the Ryukyus, immediately understood when they learned that the goods they bought here were almost no different from those of the Great Song Dynasty. If you buy goods here and sell them back to your home country, you will definitely make a lot of money.

Especially when I learned that if these goods were to be shipped back to China for the time being, New South City also had a fleet that specially accepted this kind of hire. Deliver the goods back to their home country on their behalf.

Among the ambassadors of Fanbang, there were ministers from the background, who immediately took out all the money on their bodies and bought a large number of goods from the Great Song Dynasty. Let the cargo ships of New South City help transport them back to China. As for the freight, they will pay it when they arrive in their country.

Although the freight is not cheap, these ambassadors of Fanbang have calculated it. Buy a shipload here. Send it back to your home country to sell, removing all the fees and costs. At least you can make more than double the profit.

How could they miss such a great opportunity! After ordering the goods, he immediately sent his henchmen back to his home country with the ship. At the same time, let these henchmen, with their secret letters, hand them over to the principal of the family, and mobilize funds to increase the amount of purchases.

Look at these Fanbang ambassadors. It's like they don't need money, to buy the goods they bring to the island. These maritime merchants who rented shops also felt that the wholesale business that Zhao Xiaoxi talked about seemed to have a very good price.

Except for a little shipping cost in the middle, they only need to transfer the goods. If you sell it here, you can make a lot of money. Although I didn't make as much money as I went to Fanbang to sell, I made the money with great peace of mind.

In particular, they don't have to worry about how to sell this large number of goods, which also reduces labor costs. After some calculations, these maritime merchants also earned, and this kind of business is also profitable.

When the price of goods is lower, the sales volume of goods increases. In order to act as distributors, these Fanbang merchants also spent all their wealth here to purchase a large number of Great Song Dynasty commodities and transshipped them to their own countries for sale.

Everyone knows that in their country, the goods of the Great Song Dynasty have never been unsold. Many times, they are just worried, and the goods of Da Song are very scarce. At present, as long as you pay, someone will package and transport, and then send someone to sell it in China, and the sales volume will naturally increase greatly.

For these maritime merchants, there are business transactions one after another, temporarily acting as an official of the Ministry of Rites of the tax department. Looking at the taxes that he took the initiative to pay to the Ministry of Rites, he couldn't close his mouth.

In this commercial street, with the transactions between these maritime merchants and Fanbang merchants, each transaction of goods needs to be handed over to a certain tax like Xinnancheng. Although these taxes are not high, they can't support the huge amount and quantity of transactions!

Even these maritime merchants never thought that these Fanbang merchants would be so interested in buying the goods of the Great Song Dynasty. Usually they take the goods to Fanbang to sell, although they are not worried about sales, but they are not as happy as they are now.

As a result, merchant ships carrying goods to Fanbang would depart from New South City every day. In several coastal ports of the Great Song Dynasty, there are also a large number of goods from the Great Song Dynasty, which are transported to the new southern city.

This kind of busy business has also contributed to the fame of New South City, which is getting bigger and bigger day by day. And at this time, the wedding envoy who set off from Bianliang City finally arrived in Xinnan City.

Along the way, the old eunuch who almost died of seasickness. I never thought that this county prince who came out of the imperial city would operate such a lively scene on such a wild island.

Looking at the scene of thousands of sails racing in the port, the members of the mission who came to celebrate the wedding also felt very surprised. When they came to the dock and began to organize the tent and walk towards New South City, they also felt that this place was very different.

The wide, hard-looking road was occasionally crossed by horse-drawn carriages. And the protective wall that caught the eye also shocked these members from the imperial city.

Along the way, they also heard that Zhao Xiaoxi had built a city here. But they never imagined that the scale of this city would be so large. And all this was done in less than two months.

The old eunuch who served as the wedding envoy suddenly felt that compared to returning to the palace, he would continue to be a neglected head of the front and rear palaces. It's better to stay here and see what this world will look like in the future.

As for the guards who acted as spies, they also felt that the actions of this prince of the court were indeed terrifying. Whether it is the navy escorting them to arrive, or the bustling city in front of them, it shows that Zhao Xiaoxi's ambition is not small.

But now, Zhao Xu doesn't want to stiffen the relationship between the two brothers too much. At least from the current point of view, everything Zhao Xiaoxi has done has not threatened Zhao Xu's throne. Even to some extent, it also helped the prosperity of the Great Song Dynasty's commerce.

Just as the wedding party was about to enter the city, an elite cavalry appeared in front of the city gate. Looking at the crowd greeted at the city gate, the old eunuch also felt that after not seeing him for a while, Zhao Xiaoxi's momentum was even more than before.

When the group arrived at the city gate, the old eunuch stepped down from the carriage and took out a holy decree. found that Zhao Xiaoxi did not kneel, and the other officers and soldiers would definitely obey the order when they knelt.

For Zhao Xiaoxi standing and listening to the order, the old eunuch didn't dare to say anything. As for those followers, they didn't dare to say anything more. Everyone knows that the current emperor of Bianliang City has no way to take this king of Qiongzhou.

Sending them here this time is in itself intended to improve the relationship between brothers. In this way, how much difference is there between Zhao Xiaoxi kneeling and not kneeling? At this time, jumping out to accuse Zhao Xiaoxi of not being a monarch, isn't it asking for trouble?

After announcing the holy decree, Zhao Xiaoxi bent down slightly and stretched out his hand and said, "Weichen takes the decree!" ”

After receiving the holy decree from the old eunuch's hand, Zhao Xiaoxi didn't even look at it, and handed it to Zhao Da beside him. immediately stepped forward and said, "Father-in-law Liu, this journey has been fortunate." This must be your first time going to sea, and it doesn't taste good! ”

Looking at Zhao Xiaoxi, who was still so polite to him, thinking about the funeral of the Empress Dowager Gao, he, a former palace celebrity, is really in a worse situation day by day. And this time, I took on such an errand.

The more he thought about it, the more he didn't feel good, and he couldn't help crying: "Thank you for your concern, the slave and maid can still eat!" It's been a while, but I haven't seen him for a while, and the prince has lost a lot of weight! ”

Looking at the old eunuch who used to serve his grandmother, he looked very emotional, and Zhao Xiaoxi also knew that there was no one to support Mr. Liu. Now in the palace, I am afraid that it will be very difficult.

As soon as you enter the Hou Gate, it is as deep as the sea, let alone living in this palace? Whether it is these imperfect eunuchs or those palace maids. Behind the seemingly beautiful life, there is a pain that no one knows.

Stretched out his hand and said, "Grandpa Liu, this time you're here, then don't go." Grandmother is gone, and you must not have a good time in the palace. That is it, it is better to follow this king in the future. Here, no one will leave you out in the cold! ”

Gonggong Liu, who was still thinking about how to speak, didn't expect Zhao Xiaoxi to dare to say such a bold thing. Fortunately, at this time, the conversation between the two of them did not let too many people listen.

As for Zhao Da and the others around Zhao Xiaoxi, as well as the entourage around Gonggong Liu, they didn't dare to say anything. I could only watch and be moved to tears, and my father-in-law Liu went to the city under the pull of Zhao Xiaoxi.

Seeing the honor guard representing the Great Song royal family entering the account, many people and businessmen staying in Xinnan City felt very curious. Anyway, even if everything here is Zhao Xiaoxi's final say. But in the face of the emperor, they were also in awe.

At present, the emperor of the Great Song Dynasty sent a guard of honor to celebrate the wedding, which can be explained to some extent. The king of Qiongzhou, who dominated the southeast coast, was very favored by the emperor of the Great Song Dynasty.

Regarding the misunderstanding between these businessmen and the people, Zhao Xiaoxi naturally won't explain anything. After all, when he did not announce the hegemony of the world, the emperor in the minds of the people has always been Zhao Xu, who is far away in Bianliang City. (To be continued......)
