Chapter 852: Gold Mine

"Thirty-nine thousand five hundred and twelve gold?" Liu Mang was also dumbfounded, more than 39,500 gold, simply round it up, that is 40,000 gold, and how much is the Chen Ben that Liu Mang gave him, that is 5,000 gold, this is an eightfold harvest.

This is not counting the value of the five boatloads of grain and grass, if the grain and grass are also sold, it will be able to make a thousand more gold.

"Is that true?" Liu Mang looked at Sun Wen over there in disbelief.

"How dare the grass people deceive Your Highness!" Sun Wen said respectfully to Liu Mang, and gestured to the people behind him, and naturally someone over there brought the account book.

Liu Mang really saw the numbers from this ledger, this Sun Wen is a careful person, and the numbers on it are accurate to one gold.

Five thousand gold, even if all the five thousand gold is used, if you calculate it, it will be eight times the profit.

"Instead of five thousand gold, only two thousand five hundred and sixty gold!" A young man who looked very similar to Sun Wen on the side spoke.

"What is this?" Liu Mang looked at the young man.

"Back to Your Highness, this is a dog! Come and kneel down for Your Highness! ”

"No need, why did this only cost two thousand five hundred and sixty gold?" Liu Mang asked Sun Wen's son over there.

"That's because, there's no more boats!" When I first went to sea, there were not many merchant ships up and down Yangzhou, and the large merchant ships of hundreds of tons were still Galen ships, which were transformed, and other building ships and the like were either not enough tonnage, or they were too tall, and there were too many superstructures, so ships could still be used in the rivers, and the things that went out to sea were more difficult to use than a wooden plank. If you're not careful, the whole ship has to get in.

This Sun Wen is still because of Liu Mang's favor for him. That's why a few more ships were given. Even those ships are not satisfied.

"The grass people want to go to sea like this. Buy a few more boats! Sun Wen said to Liu Mang, only when there is a ship can a large amount of money rise.

More than ten times the profit. "Huh? Filial piety fee? Liu Mang saw a column of filial piety fees over there, and it actually said 3,000 gold!

That's a lot of money.

"Hehe, hehe!" Sun Wen's face was extremely embarrassed, what this filial piety fee is, everyone naturally knows it, that is, bribery up and down.

"Boss Sun. It's really rich! Liu Mang said angrily.

"I actually earned this 40,000 gold, should I also pay back my money?" Liu Mang asked with a smile.

"This nature, this nature!" Sun Wen nodded hurriedly. But random him was embarrassed.

"Your Highness, this!"

"What?" Liu Mang is still thinking about this harvest.

"I don't know Your Highness, can you send all the masters of Yulinwei to me!" Sun Wen over there said to Liu Mang.

"Bold!" Guan Hai on the side stood up, "Yu Linwei, is His Royal Highness's personal guard, how can I lend you a businessman!" ”

"Why do you want Yu Linwei?" Liu Mang asked suspiciously.

"Your Highness, this financial is moving, I'm afraid that some individuals will die for money!" Sun Wen explained.

"All gold?"

"Yes!" Sun Wen nodded.

"Okay, Yu Linwei, I can't talk to you. Your Lord Xuzhou Thorn is here. Why not ask for it? Liu Mang pointed to Chen Deng on the side and said.

"Come and go to the Armed Police Department with me, transfer two thousand armed police, and come to open the way!" Chen Deng can also be regarded as a person who says he will do it.

The armed police are now a paradise for retired soldiers for Yangzhou, and he is also a paradise for reserves.

Outside Guangling City, there is really an armed police force.

Two thousand soldiers and horses drove into the port of Guangling, and although there were no knives in their hands, the stabbing sticks were also flashing with cold light.

"Master Sun, go!" Liu Mang said to Sun Wen.

"Hey!" Sun Wen nodded, and then smiled and let his son take these armed policemen to his merchant ship.

Liu Mang asked Chen Deng to send two thousand armed policemen, which he thought was enough, but soon Liu Mang knew that his family was wrong, and he had to continue to transfer troops and horses.

Because the scene in front of me is so sensational.

You've seen gold! But have you ever seen so much gold? That's 40,000 gold. The whole ship was covered with cleats, and it was all glittering with gold.

You said that no matter how much gold I have seen, in Yangzhou Gold Bank, when His Royal Highness the King of Han asked people to accept Jin Lu Bu, he took out a lot of gold.

But have you ever seen this piece of gold the size of a human head?

Even Liu Mang's own family can be regarded as an eye-opener, those gold transported from the ship, the smallest one is the size of a fist, the normal one is as big as a watermelon on the head, and the largest is a small gold mountain, and more than a dozen big men carried him and pulled him out of the boat.

The ordinary people in the scene, the businessmen, were really dumbfounded. I'm afraid that just such a rockery is a few thousand gold. So it's all an association, that is, this Sun family has made a fortune and made a fortune.

Sun Wen seemed to be very satisfied with the expressions of the individuals below, when he Sun Wen went to sea, they all looked disgusted.

There are no words to say less, and there are even curses that Sun Wen can't come back, but now, as proved by the facts, the mouths of those individuals have been completely blocked.

Waiting for Jin Shan to be carried in front of Liu Mang, Sun Wen waved his hand, let Jin Shan slowly put down, walked in front of Liu Mang and knelt down.

"Your Royal Highness, thanks to you, my Sun Wen can have today, thanks to you, my Sun Wen can have such brilliance, the grace of dripping water should be reciprocated by the spring, this golden mountain, specially dedicated to His Highness, and only you can be worthy of it, please Your Highness smile!" Saying that, Sun Wen over there kowtowed to Liu Mang.

Jinshan, Liu Mang couldn't help but shake his head, in his previous life, he Liu Bei had a big dream, that is, to hold Jinshan and eat for a lifetime.

Now it's actually happening.

However, although Jin Shan is good, he Liu Mang is not a person who has never seen the world.

"This gold mountain is the result of your Sun Wen's hard work, if I Liu Mang accepts it. So what's the difference with bribery? Liu Mang said to Sun Wen.

"This?"

"If you have the heart. Then give me a few more trips to the sea and bring back food. Build a few roads, bridges, and schools for the people of Yangzhou, Xuzhou, and do more good deeds! That's right

Repay me! Liu Mang spoke to Sun Wen over there.

"Yes!" Sun Wen saw that Liu Mang would not accept it, and immediately knelt down, nodding and saying, "The grass people must obey His Highness's orders."

"No need to call yourself a grass farmer!" Liu Mang suddenly said to Sun Wen over there.

Sun Wen was stunned for a moment, and secretly rejoiced in his heart. Could it be that this His Royal Highness the King of Han?

That's right. Liu Mang had already had a plan, once the first batch of people who ate crabs brought back a huge amount of vitality, then the people behind would naturally go forward and follow suit.

Even if you can't get the first kind of profit that is several times and dozens of times, you can also get several times the benefits, so that there will naturally be more people going to sea.

Just like the Silk Road back then, this sea route was to go to sea, to experience the wind and waves of the sea, and this original Silk Road had to pass through the desert. It is also a challenge, a struggle.

After the opening of the Silk Road on the sea. Merchants must be constantly coming and going, so that there must be an organization of management.

Today, Liu Mang has been finalized.

"From today onwards, starting from the current Guangling Port, the Maritime Affairs Department will be established, which will be subordinate to the Ministry of Households, and the Maritime Safety Bureau will be responsible for all disputes in the sea and the exit and entry permits of the port!" Liu Mang said to the crowd over there.

"And Sun Wen, you, should be the lord of the Maritime Mansion! Five products! Liu Mang said to Sun Wen over there.

Sun Wen is ecstatic, he is simply overjoyed, what kind of person is he Sun Wen, that is a businessman, Shinong Industry and Commerce, even if Yangzhou attaches great importance to businessmen, but this deep-rooted for so many years is impossible to change all at once, so for many people, businessmen are lowly people.

So after Sun Wen returned and had a bumper harvest, he planned to spend a lot of money to lay a pipeline for his son, so that his son would enter Yangzhou University first, and then become an official.

But in that case, if his son wants to get ahead in officialdom, it will take a lot of time.

And now it's different, it's done overnight, Maritime Mansion, although Sun Wen doesn't understand what the specific functions are, but the five officials, he still knows.

Among Yangzhou, what are the three-product officials! That is the Shangshu of each department. That's the official of the third grade, like Chen Deng, the assassin of Xuzhou, is a fourth-grade official, and when it comes to the fifth-grade official, it is the county guard.

Now that he, Sun Wen, has become an official the same size as Taishou, how can he not be happy.

"Thank you, Your Highness, thank you, Your Highness!" Sun Wen was excited, and kept kowtowing to Liu Mang.

"Alright, alright! Let's go down! Liu Mang waved his hand and said to Sun Wen.

If you stop Sun Wen over there, this blood will come out.

The merchants in the back also landed from the port one by one, large and small, whether it was a big merchant or a small merchant, as long as they went to sea, they did not lose money.

That is, one went to sea with two ships and sank one, and after selling the grain on that ship, he also covered the capital, which is equivalent to going out to see it.

The highest person is the Mi family, who gave the family 70,000 gold at once, and the other scholars who followed also transferred tens of thousands of gold, and the Zhang family's Yanzhou scholar family was originally just here to play soy sauce, and he was dumbfounded.

He took the 5,000 gold that Liu Mang gave him, which was not used at all, but just put some of the Huai cloths accumulated in the warehouse on the ships that went to sea, and in this way he also earned 10,000 gold back.

But it was this 10,000 gold that made the head of the Zhang family cry to death, and this intestine was repentant, if he had listened to the words of His Royal Highness the King of Han, then the 5,000 gold would have been exchanged for materials, and the ships that were exchanged for them would not be much less than the Mi family.

"Back?!" Liu Mang didn't leave and was waiting for a person, and this person was the observation that made Liu Neng come back from this version.

"Back to His Royal Highness, Liu Neng will live up to his mission and return with a full load!" Liu Neng said to Liu Mang.

This time, he Liu Neng finally played a big role, the entire caravan, combined, but there was a harvest of nearly 600,000 gold, and countless grains and grass, enough for most of the year in Xuzhou, this is only the first time to go to sea.

"What do you get when you go?" Liu Mang continued to ask.

"Yes!" Liu Neng nodded, and he told Liu Mang about the changes over the past few days.

After they entered the South China Sea, the two small countries of Funan and Linyi were still wary of the ships of the Han Empire at first, and Liu Neng sent several envoys ashore, but they were all detained by the city lord of the Funan Kingdom.

In the end, Liu Neng used a shipload of goods, which in exchange for the generosity of the city lord, opened the port, and allowed the Han caravan to enter the city.

It's not so much a city as a small fishing village, it's in tatters, it's not that no one has built it, it's not that there are no materials, it's lazy!

In Funan and Linyi, this Liu Neng has finally gained a lot of knowledge.

What is called not having enough to eat and not starving to death? Their land is fertile and has reached two crops a year, or even three crops a year, so as long as they sow seeds at will, they will basically have harvests, and even some lazy people don't want to farm, and there are those wild rice in the wild.

Such unearned gains naturally make people inert.

"And my big man is really two types of people!" Chen Deng said with emotion on the side.

If it was such fertile land in the Han Dynasty, these ordinary people would have planted all the places where they could regain rice.

The common people will not waste a place.

The city will also become bigger and bigger, and the common people can only save or sell their grain, and expand their family business step by step, instead of being idle like this.

This is the Han nation, a hard-working person who has been inherited thousands of years ago.

When I got there, the things brought by the Yangzhou army were all novel, cloth? Ceramics? And those utensils.

They weren't interested in anything like a sickle, shovel, or anything like that, but they were interested in the cloth, the shoes, and the things for fun.

Many merchants with farm implements lost so much that in the end they had to turn their sickles into murderous knives and sell the shovels as pig iron.

That's it, it's also very profitable.

The people there seem to be worthless to gold, although it is not everywhere, but the gold that the Funan nobles take out to trade is all dog-headed gold.

"There's a gold mine?" Liu Mang remembered such an idea.

"Yes!" Liu Neng didn't do nothing, he also expelled people into the two countries of Funan and Linyi, and indeed found traces of the vault. (To be continued......)
