He sold you something, took your money, and said it was a reward for you. I'm afraid that except for the Celestial Empire, no country has this arrogance and bearing!

Of course, the Ming people do have the courage to do this, whether it is silk or porcelain, there are too many things in the Celestial Empire that make the world fascinated.

A pair of Chenghua Doucai has made these Western businessmen fascinated. The cup is white and clear, and the colors are brilliant and charming. This is an artifact that only the gods of Olympus can use!

Bafur stared with straight eyes, swallowed his saliva with difficulty, if he could buy such a pair of porcelain, bring it back to Brussels, and present it to the Grand Duke, he dared to swear that he would immediately be rewarded and become a real nobleman!

The other merchants are the same, clenching their fists one by one, no matter how high the price, they will get it!

Mao Bijiang squeezed into the middle with a smile and revealed his identity to the commentators inside, and the little official who explained hurriedly saluted.

"So it's an adult!"

Mao Bijiang nodded slightly, smiled and took the chicken cup in his hand, and said, "Go, bring some good tea!" ”

"Yes!"

After a while, the little official held a tea caddy in one hand, which contained this year's newly harvested Longjing, and a copper kettle in the other, and his mouth was still steaming.

Mao Bijiang grabbed a little tea leaves, put them in a cup, and slowly poured hot water into them, the tea leaves tossed up and down with the hot water, and an intoxicating fragrance wafted out.

After the brilliant cup is filled with water, the bright green and the brilliant cup merge together. The white cup became transparent, and the chicken on it seemed to come to life.

For the sake of these Xiyi merchants. It's not a cup of tea, it's clearly a flower roll!

These guys are red and hot, and saliva is flowing from the corners of their mouths.

Bafur jumped out suddenly. He said loudly: "Venerable Lord of the Celestial Empire, I am willing to pay a thousand taels of silver for this pair of cups, please sell them to me!" ”

One thousand taels!

The little officials next to them looked sideways, Yiren is really stupid and has a lot of money, although the chicken bowl cup is a rare thing, but it is only a hundred taels at most, and they have multiplied ten times at once. It's too easy to make money!

Mao Bijiang's expression was as usual, and he smiled slightly: "This friend, I heard that you Westerners don't like the bitterness of tea. So when you drink tea, you add sugar and milk. And then you guys like to have a coffee. Wine glow-in-the-dark glass, different drinks. Have different utensils. Drink as you please. It should be used in a thicker, more luxurious color, which is not suitable for the crisp style of the chicken bowl cup. ”

The children of the eunuchs who ventured into Xinjiang and befriended so many noble sons and brothers, and they were familiar with all kinds of things, which was why Gu Zhenhua sent him over. After he said this, Bafur reluctantly understood that people are for their own good!

"Lord Celestial Empire. Do you have a cup for us? ”

"Of course, there is nothing in the Celestial Empire!" Mao Bijiang smiled: "It's just a small show for now." Let you take a look at the specialties of the Celestial Empire for a while. In less than half a month, we will hold an exhibition to display all kinds of items from the Celestial Empire, if you are interested, you may wish to visit. I guarantee that you will have unexpected gains, and there are not a few things that are more delicate and precious than this chicken bowl cup! ”

"Ahh

This frightened the merchants below, and a red-bearded merchant from the Netherlands, Shamon, stammered: "Great, my lord, there are so many things in the Celestial Empire, why, we couldn't buy them in the past?" ”

Mao Bijiang smiled slightly: "Ladies and gentlemen, I can't hide it, in the past, when you bought it through merchants, the most you could buy was just things for the homes of ordinary officials and eunuchs, which was too much compared to the real boutique products of the Celestial Empire." This time, the King of Zhongshan specially ordered to fully display the customs of the Celestial Empire, and in the exhibition, there were even things used by the court. Guaranteed to feast your eyes! ”

The bombs thrown out of the frontier scared all these businessmen stupid, and Bafur even counted with his fingers, all the previous things were already breathtaking, and they were even better. From officials, to nobles, princes, princes, emperors......

Oh, my God!

How many good things are there, these guys don't have enough hearts! I am more enthusiastic about the so-called exhibition, even if I can't buy it, if I can take a look at it and touch it with my own hands, I will have the capital to brag about it for a lifetime.

No wonder it is called the Celestial Empire, a qiē here, only the hand of God can create zào out, they came too worthwhile.

Since he arrived in Shanghai, for ten days, he displayed an item in front of the official office every day, including porcelain, silk, ironware, and jade carvings, all in all, each of which caused a sensation among Westerners. When they think that something has reached its limit, there is immediately something more outstanding in front of them.

The serial psychological impact made these guys willing to worship, and when they conjured up a person and said that this was God, they would believe it!

Ten days later, the exhibition came to an end, and in five days, the exhibition officially began, and all Western businessmen, as well as domestic wealthy businessmen, rushed to Shanghai.

Just when everyone was nervously preparing, Gu Zhenhua also took a warship and came to Shanghai, and there was no welcome ceremony, Gu Zhenhua went directly to the county office, and he was also startled when he was making the final preparations.

"Lord Wang, why are you here?"

"Hahaha, if you don't come, you can't do it, people die for money, birds die for food, I was going back to Henan to supervise the war, but if it is not arranged here, I can't rest assured!"

Wu Kaijie, who accompanied him, smiled even more: "Mr. Mao, how busy are you, let's talk about it." ”

Mao Bijiang nodded, and he led Gu Zhenhua to a huge table, which was filled with small houses made of wood, just like a real estate display in later generations.

"Lord Wang, Shanghai County should be divided into four main areas, the first is the port storage area, which is the first line of the Huangpu River, and the second is the banking area, which is responsible for internal and external currency exchange and trade settlement, and the Trade Review Committee, the Daming Judicial Yuan, and the interpretation training course will also be placed here, and the insurance company you mentioned will also be placed here in the future."

Gu Zhenhua looked at it and nodded, the so-called banking district already has the shadow of financial services in the future. There are banks, coordination agencies, legal guarantees, and interpreters, all of whom are very thoughtful.

"Lord Wang, look at it again, this is the third commodity exhibition area, the most important of which is the Daming Auction House, and there are two other commodity exhibition areas, one is Western, and the other is ours!"

Wu Kaijie looked at it and couldn't help laughing: "Mr. Mao, why is this Western one so small, I don't think it's even a tenth of ours." ”

Mao Bijiang said: "I want to give them a little bigger, but there is really nothing in the West, nothing more than table clocks, Western musical instruments, woolen wool and other things, there are not many people who are interested, and their firearms are good, but they are traded by the military, and they can't be bought and sold on the market!" ”

The regional comparison between the two sides just shows the absolute strong position of the Ming Dynasty in trade, and it is no wonder that the world's silver will flow to the Ming Dynasty.

Gu Zhenhua said: "Mr. Mao, don't underestimate the West too much, their things still have merit, such as woolen wool, isn't An**'s military uniform just used!" ”

Mao Bijiang said with a smile: "It's also a loss to use it, so many people buy it, otherwise Westerners don't have any commodities that they can handle!" The lowly will encourage them to bring as many good things as possible. ”

Gu Zhenhua could only smile bitterly when he heard it, but think about it again, if it is unbalanced, it will be unbalanced, if it is strong, it will be strong, and if you are there, you can still make Westerners turn the sky upside down!

His eyes fell on the fourth area, and his face was a little unpleasant.

"Lord Wang, this side is for the navy and the escort fleet, according to Lord Shen Tingyang's construction, a shipyard will be built here, responsible for building ships, including merchant ships and warships. But I've been abandoning the sea a lot over the years, and the shipbuilders can't get together for a while, and, and ......"

"Don't babble, just say it!"

"And our ships are already lagging behind Xiyi, I heard that the Zheng family army can crisscross the sea, and it also relies on the strength of the crowd, and the size and performance of the warships are not as good as Xiyi!"

Gu Zhenhua shook his head: "Hey, the ship can't compare to others, if it weren't for An **'s efforts to integrate, our firearms would not be as good as others." It's just that the Celestial Empire is rich in products, and there are so many mouth-watering things. What do you think will happen next? ”

"The puppet is not guilty of his guilt!" Gu Zhenhua talked freely: "This time the Tatars entered the customs, in fact, it was a blow to us, and if we continue to be so stubborn, I am afraid that the next time it will not be the Manchus who bully us!" ”

……

The next day is the exhibition, the time is so tight, of course, there is no way to build a dedicated pavilion, fortunately, Lin Haitian gave up a manor, after the transformation, it became an exhibition hall, and it was just the opportunity to let these Xiyi see the Chinese garden architecture, killing two birds with one stone.

According to Western time, the exhibition began at nine o'clock in the morning, but before dawn, many Xiyi stood outside, looking at the vermilion gate with enthusiasm.

Finally waited for the time, accompanied by the sound of firecrackers, Mao Bijiang led these Yi people and began to visit. In Mao Bijiang's view, this qiē is all for silver. However, he did not expect that this was a new beginning for the Oriental World to officially open its doors and embrace the world.

Although the Ming Dynasty also had overseas trade in the past, it was mostly the behavior of merchants. And this time, it is the beginning of the ruling group led by An **, with unprecedented boldness, to open the country. Those who linger among the fine goods have no idea that they have ushered in a new era!

As soon as Bafur came in, his eyes glared at all kinds of porcelain, brilliant colors, almost dazzling his eyes. Mao Bijiang first led them to a room, and the Hundred Treasure Pavilion on both sides was lined with exquisite cups.

"This piece is all small pieces of porcelain, let's take a look!"

Before he could finish speaking, Bafour suddenly saw a dark golden cup in a corner, revealing a soft and luxurious brilliance, and he was stunned for a moment.

"I want this, no matter how much it is, I want this!" (To be continued......)
