"Little prince, what is this, it's dark and not in the middle of winter, why does it look like a charcoal ball."

After the sack was brought up, several palace guards carefully took out the things inside, but saw dozens of potatoes wrapped in wet mud, a small bag of shelled peanuts, and a dozen golden corn cobs, and a dozen huge sweet potatoes, neatly stacked on the ground, I couldn't see anything surprising, stunned that everyone in the room looked a little inexplicable, I really couldn't figure out what the meaning of Hongqing spending a lot of money to make such a thing out, looking at each other, or Liu San'er was fast-mouthed, I couldn't help but mumble quietly.

"Silly boy, this is all a baby, it's not easy, hey, you don't understand, hurry up, put it away first, go back and plant it in the house first, at this time next year, you kid will wait to eat delicious food."

Peanuts and other things are rare things for people in this era, but for Hongqing, they are just some home-cooked dishes, since they can see it at a glance, but it is so beautiful in their hearts, not for anything else, just because there are so many good varieties in hand, Hongqing can make an article about the boss, of course, Hongqing did not intend to tell everyone present in detail, so he just laughed and scolded, and then made a stop.

"Hey, that's it, the small ones are waiting to be eaten."

Seeing that Hongqing was in a good mood, Liu San'er was so happy that he had a good time, responded with a hippie smile, and commanded everyone to put away all the species on display safely.

"Xuan Min (Liu Qi's words), this time you have made a great contribution, you can't overdo it, this is good, the newly established business will be presided over by Er, and Er Yicheng will be given dry shares, so it will be decided!"

Being able to get corn and other things into his hands so smoothly, Hongqing is in a very happy mood, of course, cool is cool, but Hongqing will not forget the reward he should have, so he groaned a little and gave a heavy reward.

"Ah, this ......, please ask the little prince to take back his life, the slave really can't deserve it."

Others don't know what is going on with the new business name, but Liu Qi knows it in his heart, this heard Hongqing give a dry share, and he was frightened when he landed, there is no other, this is a huge investment in maritime trade, a dry stock means less to say a million taels of silver, this is how Liu Qi was not surprised, his heart panicked, he couldn't sit still, and hurriedly knelt on the ground, and said pleadingly with a trembling voice.

"Xuan Min doesn't have to be like this, what Ben Beizi said is accurate, but Xiao Er can work hard, and a little share is a big deal, if the son of Er succeeds in learning in the future, this background will be wrapped up in Ben Beizi, just be flat."

If you want the horse to run and the horse doesn't eat grass, Hongqing can't do it, and the reward and punishment are the only way for the royal family, this truth, Hongqing knows better than anyone else.

"Thank you, master Longen, the slave should serve his life to repay him!"

Seeing that Hongqing had already said such a thing, Liu Qi didn't dare to say any more, so he hurriedly kowtowed a few times and thanked him gratefully.

"Well, let's go and ask the ship's boss and the shipbuilder to come and see him."

Hongqing was quite satisfied with Liu Qi's loyalty, but he didn't say more, just nodded with satisfaction, and commanded in a calm tone.

"Wow!"

Hongqing has already given the order, Cao Yanshan and others who are waiting on the side of him hurriedly responded to the promise, and after a while, they have already accompanied a few people to turn out from behind the screen, and as soon as they appeared, several sounds of surprise in the study suddenly appeared, not for anything else, just because there were three blonde and blue-eyed big men among the five people who were about to come in, although they were dressed in Qing Dynasty clothes, but they didn't look like good people like that, Cao Yanshan and the others were just that, they had seen these white people before, and they should have been surprised a long time ago, However, Liu San'er and the others had never seen a Caucasians, and at first glance, they couldn't help but be in a trance.

"Little Sun Chengwu (Sun Mingxu) knocks on the little prince!"

Without waiting for everyone to come back to their senses, they saw two of them snatched out, kneeling on the ground, these two people looked alike, the elder was nearly fifty years old, and the young one was only in his early twenties.

"Excuse me, Sun is at the helm all the way, it's hard work, Ben Beizi doesn't greet him well, and I invite Haihan to do it."

Facing the great gift of the Sun family's father and son, Hongqing raised his hand very kindly and greeted politely.

"Don't dare, the villain can get the credit of the little prince, and he is fortunate to have three lives."

The ancestors of the Sun family are eating the rice bowl of the sea, from the end of the Yuan Dynasty to the present has been passed down for more than ten generations, but the luck is not very good in the past few years, the two cargo ships owned by the first one were sunk due to the storm, a family of more than ten only the father and son survived, the family wealth was defeated, had to help people sail as a business, after being introduced, met Liu Qi, who was urgently looking for a good hand in the sea, the two sides hit it off, this is the only time to have this trip to Beijing, at this time, in front of Hongqing, the unattainable owner, Sun Chengwu did not dare to have the slightest rudeness.

"The matter of the business will be discussed later, Sun is at the helm of the father and son and will settle down first, and Ben Beizi has his own opinions."

The matter of the business name is cumbersome to say, and there are other customers, Hongqing is not in a hurry to explain it, so he called kindly.

"Thank you, little prince, Longen."

Since Hongqing said so, the father and son of the Sun family did not dare to delay a little, and after each kowtowed, he got up and retreated to the side.

"In the lower Portuguese reach? Agassi has seen the little prince, these two are the companions of the lower Baldia? Melan, San Diego? Diash, I have heard for a long time that the little prince is a wise and wise person, and when I see it today, it is really extraordinary. ”

As soon as he saw Hongqing's gaze, one of the three white men standing tall stepped forward, put his hand on his chest, and made a Western salute, but what he could speak was Chinese, although the accent was awkward and stiff, but the meaning was quite clear.

"Presumptuous, my little prince is in front of him, and he dares not to kneel!"

"Bold! Don't kneel yet! ”

……

Reach? As soon as Agassi's etiquette came out, Li Minxing and other palace guards who were standing on the side were furious, and they all spoke out and shouted.

"Hmm!"

Hongqing raised his hand and stopped the palace guards from shouting, and then looked at Da? Agassi and the others said with a smile: "Mr. Agassi speaks Chinese well, how many years have you been in my Qing Dynasty?" But do you live in Macau? ”

"The little prince also knows Macau? Hehe, there is no other meaning in the next, just strange little prince knows deeply, in the Qing Dynasty is twelve years ago, when the Qing Dynasty was at war with the Zheng family, our merchant ships can not dock, can only turn to the Wa country, on the way, some ships were damaged by the storm, can only dock in Macau nearby, in the next is to stay in your country from then on, to repair ships as a business, Meran and Dias are only here in the past two years, is considered to be a technician in the small ship repair yard under the west. ”

Reach? Agassi was obviously a very talkative person, and Hongqing just asked a simple question, and he was already talking a lot.

"Oh, I see, can Mr. Agassi's shipyard build big ships?"

Hongqing didn't care about Agassi's ramblings, but just listened quietly until he finished speaking, then nodded and asked casually.

"Don't hide it from the little prince, Meran and Dias were originally ship designers of the Royal Navy, and they once presided over the construction of countless warships, large and small, but they offended people who shouldn't be offended, and had to go to the East, as long as the little prince needs it, not to mention cargo ships, it is a battleship, and he dares to pack a ticket in the next place."

The shipbuilding industry along the coast of Guangdong is quite developed, the shipyards are not old and young, the shipyard operated by Agassi is only one of the inconspicuous, not that the technical strength is not good, but the Cantonese people are extremely xenophobic, not to mention that Agassi is such a Caucasian person, even if it is a person from other provinces to invest in a shipyard in Guangdong, it is difficult to pull business, poor Agassi's shipyard has a relatively strong technical reserve, and can only do some repair work of Western merchant ships, and the business situation is not much better, the reason why Liu Qi can bring it into Beijing this time, In fact, it is the result of Agassi's self-recommendation, of course, his reputation in the industry is also one of the fundamental reasons why Liu Qi chose him, the purpose of this is to get orders from Hongqing, and he is naturally full of confidence when he boasts.

"Well, is Mr. Agassi very confident?"

In Hongqing's previous life, what he ate was a bowl of rice was business, and he could hear that Agassi's words had a lot of exaggerated ingredients, and he couldn't help but be happy.

"Little prince, there is no lie in the next, if you don't believe it, you can hand over the order to the next, and the deposit will only be collected by thirty percent, and see if you can build the ship you want."

Although Agassi didn't know how many boats Hongqing wanted, his shipyard was now at the point of waiting for the rice to be cooked, and he didn't want to miss this business, so he gritted his teeth and set a floor for a deposit.

"Oh? I wonder how big the largest ship Mr. Agassi could build and how heavy it was? And to be specific, it's decided again. ”

Hongqing had already calculated in his heart about the shipping incident, but he didn't intend to say anything about it at this time, so he just asked with a smile.

"Little Wangye, you are asking the right person, if you say that the load is huge, all the shipyards in Guangdong will not be able to do the scale of the contemptible, please see!"

Agassi came prepared this time, and when he heard Hongqing's words, he seemed to have the intention of placing an order, and he couldn't help but be overjoyed, and he couldn't care about a lot, so he hurriedly took off a burden behind him, hurriedly untied it, took out a thick stack of folded drawings from the inside, squatted on the ground excitedly, and spread it out on the spot. Seeing that everyone in the room was dazzled.
