Tang Lin didn't know that a new crisis was approaching, it wasn't that she didn't take precautions, An Yan had reminded her in the letter that the stakes were important at this time, and it might affect the interests of many people, so she must take more precautions, no matter where she goes, she has to take manna and Xueya with her.

If it was before, Tang Lin would definitely think that An Yan was making a big fuss, but now, thinking about An Yan's serious face when she wrote these times, she only felt warm in her heart.

Moreover, with the establishment of the business road, after receiving the initial returns, some problems began to emerge, and Fang Shubing also reminded her that they had moved the interests of some people in the northwest, and they would face a lot of obstacles and even dark injuries in the future.

It is impossible to say that he is not worried at all, but since he has taken the first step, Tang Lin has never thought of stopping, not only to walk, but also to go well, not only to connect the northwest region, but also to the west, until Su Mingguo, and even to the sea of the extreme west, as An Yan said.

Of course, it is the first step to take a good step now, Fang Shubing suggested that Tang Lin should not do two things, and communicate this trade route with the north-south trade route, Fengxiangjing is a gathering place for goods from all over the world, but it is not a place of origin, if it can cooperate with the rich southern region, this trade road will become a real gold trade route.

Tang Lin felt that it was very reasonable, and in the past few days, he also met with several merchants in central Vietnam, southern Yunnan and other places recommended by Fang Shubing, and discussed some matters about the extension of goods to the northwest region.

On this day, Fang Shubing came over with great interest: "Tang Lin, I have good news for you. ”

"What is so pleased?" Perhaps because of his perennial immersion in shopping malls, although Fang Shubing has a gentle personality, it is rare for him to be so happy, which makes Tang Lin a little curious.

Fang Shubing smiled: "When the people of the Zheng family in Yuezhong arrive in the capital, if we can win the Zheng family, the Northwest Trade Road we want to open will be more secure." ”

Tang Lin knew that this Zheng family was a merchant giant with the same reputation as the Fang family in Yuezhong, although it may be slightly inferior to the Fang family in terms of financial resources, but the Zheng family was in the business of grain, and most of the grain business in the south was almost in the hands of the Zheng family.

It is no exaggeration to say that the Zheng family is the largest grain merchant in the whole Dahan, and more importantly, the Zheng family has been people-oriented for generations, and has never made money with grain in times of crisis.

The reputation of the Zheng family is very good in the whole Dahan, and it is even rumored that the Zheng family also has a gold medal for avoiding death, which was given to the Zheng family by Emperor Taizu after that generous act, but the Zheng family has always been low-key, and outsiders do not know whether this rumor is true or false.

But one thing is certain, the Zheng family is very valued by the Son of Heaven, and even courtesy, and they can enter the palace every year to face the saint, which is not something that rich businessmen can do, such as Situ Rui, the president of the Chamber of Commerce in Fengxiangjing, who still takes the opportunity to visit the concubine in the palace and occasionally see the holy face.

With the strength and reputation of the Zheng family, it can make their business more complete. The people take food as the sky, and the food shortage in the northwest, Tang Lin has seen the rise in food prices with his own eyes, and the trip to the Western Regions also made her understand a truth, whether a place can live and work in peace and contentment, the most basic thing is to make people well-fed, and only when they have enough food and clothing can there be the possibility of development.

Otherwise, just like the neighboring Xirong and some places in the Western Regions, they will only think about plundering and war, and the local bandits will be rampant, and the people will not be able to make a living. Therefore, Tang Lin attaches great importance to this meeting, if it is really possible to let the Zheng family's grain enter the northwest through the trade route, it will definitely be a blessing for the ordinary people in the northwest.

Understanding what Fang Shubing meant, Tang Lin nodded: "Then when is it appropriate for us to visit?" ”
