Chapter 31: Reasons for Changing Attitudes
Genius remembered for a second, "Love โ รท small? Say โ', provide you with wonderful novels to read.
Entering October, a north wind hangs over the South China Sea. A fleet sailed back to Quanzhou against the north wind, and from the flag it was the ship of Rentong Express. Now Rentong Express's action should also be notified to Renda Qianzhuang, and the shopkeeper Qi Ye heard the news and hurried to the office of the wharf. In the plan, this fleet is going to sail to Cochin, how can it come back not long after departure?
Full of worry, Qi Ye squeezed into the dock office where all people were crowded, and heard the person in charge of the fleet blowing in the midst of everyone, "When we arrive in Guangzhou, as soon as our cloth is taken out, the local merchants will drag it alive to buy our cloth." I saw that I still had time to make a trip, so I sold the cloth. Hurry back. โ
Hearing this, Qi Ye was very unhappy in his heart, but Qi Ye also found that he couldn't find a reason to reprimand. Now the southbound fleet is assembling towards Guangzhou, and with the speed of Rentong Express, it can really run back before the fleet departs.
At this time, everyone also saw Qi Ye, and someone hurriedly ran to make way for Qi Ye, and the person in charge of the fleet said happily: "Shopkeeper Qi, the cloth bought in Guangzhou is all copper coins, I think I really can't let it go, so I will do this transaction!" โ
Hearing that all the money earned back was copper money, Qi Ye could only keep the words of criticism in his heart. Of course, Qi Ye will not praise it. I saw Zhao Jiaren go from a county lieutenant who could only take out a few hundred yuan and relied on borrowing money to buy gunpowder. Qi Ye also saw Zhao Jiaren's way, and all the money he earned was invested in industries that could improve his ability, so the richer Zhao Jiaren was, the stronger he became. If Zhao Jiaren was just thinking about making money, he would have stopped moving forward.
From this point of view, Qi Ye believes that this voyage did not achieve its goal. Many accounts cannot be estimated simply by how much copper money they have earned, and the purpose of this trip south is to establish business contacts with Jiaozhi and start to establish their own network. With this spirit, the fleet travels between Guangzhou and Quanzhou, so it is better to simply explore Jiaozhi and Qiongzhou Island.
Qi Ye led people to transport the money to the money for accounting, and this time the five ships were filled with cotton cloth and a small number of glass mirrors, and sold them in Guangzhou. Just counting the copper coins of a large ticket is a very physically demanding job. Without waiting for Qi Ye to deal with this matter, his cousin Qi Rong came to look for him.
Inviting his cousin into the back hall of Renda Village, Qi Rong carefully examined the interior decoration of the new bank, which was surrounded by buildings. The two brothers sat down, and Qi Rong said happily: "Those elders are all old and confused, and they said that they would remove you from the family tree. I resolutely refuse to agree, even if I remove you, isn't it the blood of our Qi family that stumps you? โ
As soon as he mentioned those elders, Qi Ye was not happy in his heart, although his cousin's words were heard, they were too much of an afterthought. Qi Ye smiled slightly, "Big brother is here to tell me this?" โ
"I'm not here to talk about this, but this." After speaking, Qi Rong took out a folk notice and put it in front of Qi Ye. ใๆโๅปโณๅฐโ่ชชโณ็ถฒ Qu ใ
Qi Ye looked down and saw that it was Zhao Jiaren who recruited tenant farmers from all over Fujian. Qi Rong looked at Qi Ye's expression and judged that he knew about it, so he asked, "I don't know where Zhao Zhizhou has a large piece of land, why did he suddenly have this?" I think to myself, probably Zhao Zhizhou has gained a foothold in Yizhou? โ
Yizhou refers to the island of Taiwan. During the Three Kingdoms period, Eastern Wu once sent people up, but many soldiers died due to epidemics. In the end, the general of Ueshima captured thousands of natives and brought them back to Sun's house, and it is said that these captives were sent to the palace with their bodies clean. Now the Great Song Dynasty has set up a yamen on Penghu, and as long as it moves forward, it will be able to gain a firm foothold in Taiwan.
Qi Ye shook his head, "No." It's on the north side. After hesitating for a moment, Qi Ye felt that it was not interesting to talk nonsense, and Zhao Jiaren would probably tell the truth to everyone after the tenant farmers came. So Qi Ye continued: "There is a large island between Goryeo and Wa, and Zhao Zhizhou's fleet has arrived there. Now hire people to reclaim the land on that big island. โ
"How far?" Qi Rong asked.
"Big brother, what do you mean by this?" Qi Ye asked vigilantly.
Seeing his cousin's expression, Qi Rong said very seriously: "Although our Qi family is not short of money, we don't have any land. Zhao Zhizhou is looking for tenant farmers from all over Fujian, and we feel that with Zhao Zhizhou's ability, it must be a large piece of land. In that case, we are willing to recruit people to reclaim the wasteland. I just want to know how long Zhao Zhizhou is willing to give us tenants. If those lands become mature, will they be willing to be tenants forever? โ
Qi Ye was still vigilant after hearing this, the Qi family was not very optimistic about Zhao Jiaren, but now why did he suddenly become interested. Qi Rong saw that his cousin's expression became more and more vigilant, and he smiled, "Gorou, we have no intention of competing with you. It's just that I've seen Zhao Zhizhou's methods, especially Kong Minglan when he got married, I think you have a good eye for people. Since Zhao Zhizhou has such ability, and hires tenant farmers to take care of him so much, why not let the Qi family have a good relationship with Zhao Zhizhou. Zhao Zhizhou opened such good conditions, even if it doesn't work, we can't suffer much loss. โ
Hearing this, Qi Ye was very unhappy in his heart. The Qi family is like this, they will never make money-losing transactions, as long as there is a real opportunity, they will naturally fight for it. From the position of the Qi family, Qi Ye felt that this was a matter of course. However, from the perspective of Zhao Jiaren's partner, Qi Ye felt as if he had been pinched and his feet hurt. With Qi Ye's understanding of Zhao Jiaren, he will definitely choose to cooperate with the Qi family wisely.
Things proved that Zhao Jiaren was indeed like this, seeing Qi Rong who came to visit, and listening to Qi Rong's conditions, Zhao Jiaren smiled and said: "The Qi family is a reliable family in our Fujian, and the Qi family is willing to help, I can't ask for it." We are not going to Yizhou, where there is a miasma, and if we go, we will die. We went to the north, and although it was cold in the north, there were also things that were not adapted to the water and soil. But the good thing in the north is that there is no miasma. I'm used to staying there for a few months. โ
Seeing that Zhao Jiaren was talking the same as Qi Ye, Qi Rong immediately asked, "Then how many people does Zhao Zhizhou want us to send?" โ
"The more the merrier." Zhao Jiaren preached briskly. Jeju Island has more than 1,800 square kilometers, and with the production technology of the Song Dynasty, it is not a problem to feed 50,000 or 60,000 people. No matter how capable the Qi family is, it is impossible to mobilize tens of thousands of people.
As for how long it can be tenant and whether it can be tenant forever, Zhao Jiaren replied: "It takes two years for the land to be cultivated and mature, and these things can only be determined after two years. But one thing I can guarantee is that if the tenant farmers are willing to move to the island with their families in two years' time, I will give them land. โ
Waiting for Qi Rong to leave, Qi Ye immediately wanted to speak. Zhao Jiaren stopped Qi Ye, and he called someone in first. Qi Ye looked at this sturdy young man in his twenties, as if he remembered that his name was Cai Youcan. The reason why I remember it is because Qi Ye took Cai Youcan's surveying and mapping class.
"Do you think you can hold down the five ships that go to Cochin?" Zhao Jiaren asked bluntly.
Cai Youcan was stunned for a moment, and then surprise appeared on his face. "Headmaster, I'm not going to suppress anyone. It's about working together with everyone to get things done. โ
"Since you say so, then let you lead the team to Jiaozhi." Zhao Jiaren quickly made a decision.
"But how can I tell you about the substitution?" Cai Youcan continued to ask.
"Since you like to do business in Guangzhou, let him run this line specifically." Zhao Jiaren's tone was flat, and he couldn't hear joy or anger.
Hearing that Zhao Jiaren had the same judgment as him, Qi Ye couldn't help but have a happy smile on his face. Reading, a better reading experience.
