The result is that after looking at it for a whole day, I only ordered less than 3,000 pieces of goods, first, red sandalwood and nanmu are unusual wood, which is already rare, and second, she ordered 10,000 nearly 20,000 pieces of goods, because of Lin Zhaoqing's feelings, the good wood in this timber line was almost good before, and now these are also ordered by others, only these nearly 3,000 pieces of goods, or look at Lin Zhaoqing's face to give even.

This time, Banniang was really worried.

Her wood shop is already taking the high-end route, can afford to book a complete set of furniture in her wood shop, most of them are rich and noble, and her requirements for wood are high, Quanzhou is not good, you can only go to other places, but there is no familiar person to introduce the source, which means that her cost has increased a lot, and despite this, it may not be able to buy good wood.

What's more, Li Yuanwai was staring at her. Although Mrs. Li promised not to stumble on her again, if the supply of goods is stuck, you really can't say that the Li family is in the way. After all, it's something that can't be talked about in the open, and it can't catch people's handles.

Wait. You can only wait for news of Yongxing in Quanzhou.

"Banniang, if there is a real problem with Yongxing's goods, will our carpentry shop be greatly affected?" Cang'er couldn't help but worry as she walked back and forth in the house.

Banniang nodded.

Liu Erlang comforted: "No matter what, it's not enough to close the door." We still have some timber in our warehouse, and the 3,000 yuan we have set this time is enough to support it for a few days. ”

If it was only sold in his own woodware shop, he would be able to last for four or five months, but in this case, Lin Zhaoqing's order would not be accepted. Moreover, the orders in the woodworking shop must also be controlled in terms of timber.

So, what about the large number of workers in the carpentry and lacquer workshops? Without work, raising people for nothing is a big expense, and even if it can last for a year, the supply of goods in the future is still an unavoidable problem.

The source of goods is her bottle diameter.

After another three or four days, Banniang thought that she would definitely not be able to go home before the Mid-Autumn Festival, so she had to write a letter and send it back to Nanfeng, afraid that her family would be worried, so she only said that something was stumbling. I won't be able to go back until after the Mid-Autumn Festival.

Until the eighth day of the eighth month of August, Baniang has been worried for a long time, but she calmed down, there are always more lice, and there are more debts, Liu Erlang is right, it has not yet reached the point of closing, the road is walked out by people, it is really not good, Lin Zhaoqing's firm, even if there is no overseas commodity supplement, it is not that he will no longer go to the sea to the north. At that time, she took Lin Zhaoqing's order, and then through his network, she went to the north to purchase timber.

There are also a lot of good timber in the north, although there are no precious varieties such as red sandalwood and nanmu, as well as overseas precious timbers such as sour branches, ebony, pear, wenge, and ironwood, but in the Great Song Dynasty, such as pestle, birch, camphor, and pine, which can be purchased in various parts of the Great Song Dynasty, also have their own practical uses. The deficiencies are remedied by pushing the lacquer art, which is better than the general woodwork shop, and she still has absolute confidence in making it.

It's just that in this way, the cost of raw materials will be much higher than their previous budget, and they will lose their amazing profits on wood raw materials.

Originally, she also pointed to the 100,000 pieces of wood and made a lot of money.

was sitting under the banyan tree in the courtyard reading a book, when he saw Lin Zhaoqing striding in with a happy face: "Eighth brother." ”

When Banniang heard the voice, she was greeted by a refreshed face, and she also cheered up for a while: "But there is news from the fleet?" ”

Lin Zhao said happily: "Exactly, the person who has been guarding the port just now came back to spread the word, saying that Yongxing's fleet has returned to the port." But it seems that this time there is a loss, but it is not serious, I want to come to you and me wood, there is no problem, even if there is a little loss, it is better than nothing. Are you inconvenient right now? If it's all right, let's go to the port and have a look? ”

Go, she has waited for so many days, and if she doesn't see Yongxing's fleet come back safely, this heart can't be placed.

Banniang threw away the notebook in her hand and shouted at Cang'er, who was practicing boxing there: "Cang'er, I will go to the port with Brother Lin, and you will go with me to see and see." ”

As he spoke, he entered the house, changed into a white shirt for going out, and rushed out the door.

Lin Zhaoqing rarely saw her in a hurry, but he laughed. Cang'er was dressed in an arrow-sleeved shirt, and when the three of them went out, Lin Zhaoqing's carriage was already waiting there.

"Is there a horse? The carriage was too slow. I reckon there will be no shortage of people going out of town to the docks at this time, and it will be difficult for the carriages to travel by then. ”

In ancient times, the roads were not as wide and smooth as the highways of later generations, and if you were to ride a horse, it was indeed much more convenient and faster than a horse-drawn carriage.

It's just that she's a woman.

Lin Zhaoqing hesitated: "Eighth brother, you have no problem riding a horse, right?" ”

Banniang was in a good mood at this time, and couldn't help but smile and provoke: "What? Brother Lin looks down on me? If you don't believe me, how about we compare equestrianism? ”

Where will Lin Zhaoqing fight with her for this, and besides, there will be no fewer people going to the port wharf in a while, even if they ride horses, they will not be much faster, so they just smiled, and called the entourage outside the courtyard: "Go and lead three good horses." ”

When I got to the street, there were a lot of people who got the news, most of them were businessmen, there were also people from various commercial houses, and some family members of people who went to sea, although most of them were not relatives of the people of Yongxing Commercial Bank, but I heard that the fleet of Yongxing Commercial Bank came back safely, and I was worried about my family, so I wanted to inquire about the news.

Fortunately, the three of them went out relatively early, so they quickly urged the horses to the front. Go straight to the South Gate.

It is the later Taiwan that faces Quanzhou across the sea and lives in the southeast direction, and it is the later Taiwan, at this time, the two places face each other across the sea, and the distance is very close. Further southwest, is Hainan Island, beyond Hainan Island, is Southeast Asian countries: Laos, Cambodia, Vietnam, Thailand, Myanmar, Malaysia, Singapore, India, Brunei, the Philippines, etc.

And the countries of Southeast Asia are also the places where Banniang often flew around in her previous life because of her work.

Looking up at the southwest, blowing the sea breeze, Banniang thought that one day, she would definitely go to sea with the boat to see these countries today, or maybe she could go further.

She was very fortunate to wear this charming Great Song Kingdom, where the maritime trade was so strong that it reached almost every corner of the world. Essay on martial arts, the former enemy is no more than the Han and Tang Dynasties, on the size of the country's territory, and the latter cannot catch up with the Great Yuan. But this Great Song Dynasty has a charm that no historical dynasty can match. Even in the time and space of Ba Niang's previous life, there was the Song Dynasty, which was also the era of the longest existence and the most frequent maritime trade in Chinese history.

If the Tang Dynasty's conquest of the world relied on a strong spiritual strength and open-mindedness, the strength of the Tang Dynasty was something that any other country at that time could only look up to. So what the Great Song Dynasty can convince the world is just the opposite of the Tang Dynasty, relying on its unparalleled affinity and charm, it is as prosperous as heaven.

It is such an era, in the history of mankind, has become a watershed between ancient society and modern society, his urban model laid the urban foundation of the entire later society, and scientific and technological civilization is also highly developed, gunpowder, movable type printing, compass, three major civilizations in the four major inventions appeared in this time and space, although due to a certain degree of change in time and space, but since the establishment of the Great Song Dynasty, and even the history before the end of the Five Dynasties and Ten Kingdoms, there is no difference from the time and space of Banniang's previous life.

In other words, it is because the Chai royal family replaced the Zhao royal family, or in other words, the Zhao royal family did not replace the Chai royal family in the end, and history entered a fault line during this period.

Nevertheless, of course, it is not surprising that these three inventions came into being.

To be honest, Banniang didn't know the final direction of the Great Song Kingdom at this time, but she was sure that the Great Song Kingdom of the Chai family royal family was far stronger than the Northern and Southern Song Dynasty in her previous life.

Regardless of the brilliance of culture, the military is far stronger than that of the Northern and Southern Song dynasties, and as for the social economy, it is also much stronger than the Northern and Southern Song dynasties due to national policies.

However, no dynasty is perfect, and the same is true of the Great Song Kingdom today.

But Banniang believes that no matter what the society is, she is a person who walks on the road, or it can be said that anyone is a person who walks on the road. In the case of not being able to change the road conditions, of course, she is just an ordinary woman who wants to live well, she does not have such great ambitions, what she pursues all her life is how to walk well on the road and walk better.

Reliving a life, while walking well, can you have some different experiences, different life experiences? In this way, it is not in vain to live this life more than others, right?

"Eighth brother, what are you thinking?"

Because Ma Xing was not fast, seeing Banniang in a daze at the blue sky in the southwest, Lin Zhaoqing couldn't help but ask.

"I'm thinking," Banniang raised her finger and pointed at it from afar, "I don't know what kind of sky is on the other side of the sea, what kind of scenery in the world, one day, I will also pass through this vast sea and see the world beyond the Great Song Kingdom." ”

(In fact, in the real history of the Song Dynasty, although there are private business contacts between the Liuqiu and the people of the Great Song Dynasty, it is smuggling, and it is officially prohibited. ）
