Chapter 226: Change of Mind
Chenguang smiled.
She didn't originally want Chang Xi to lead the Ouyang family to evacuate Yanyun Country, although she knew that if she gave an order, Chang Xi would definitely obey it regardless of the consequences, but she was not a wayward child, how could she give that kind of order.
But it was obvious that Duanmu Yan believed that Chenguang would give that kind of order after hearing the news, that is, in his heart, he was still easy to think of Chenguang as a willful and crazy little girl.
Chenguang bent the corners of his lips, holding the porcelain cup outlined with ink kittens in both hands, and focused on tasting the clear spring water of the Chiyang Kingdom.
She was very serious, very comfortable, and looked intoxicated.
Duanmu Yan looked at her, at first he thought she was probably groaning, but then he was dissatisfied that she had drunk a glass of water for too long, and she was not tasting tea, but she could drink a glass of white water for so long.
Sitting face to face, he could only watch her drink tea slowly, and she was still maintaining the same movement, no matter who watched it for a long time, she would feel anxious, not to mention that Duanmu Yan was talking to her about major events between the two countries, and her attitude was really uneducated.
Duanmu Yan didn't want to find fault with her, a wild girl was a wild cat, and he felt ridiculous when he talked about the rules with the wild cat.
Picking up the teacup, he originally wanted to taste a cup of tea, like this kind of confrontation, whoever speaks first in a hurry will lose. When he picked up the teacup, he glanced into the teacup, and the tea was too bad, so he put it down and dismissed the idea of tasting tea.
At this time, Chenguang finally drank a glass of spring water, she put down the cup, her soft lips were still shining with water, she smiled lightly, and said softly:
"Since the capture of Hanjing, I have been thinking that people should still live in a suitable place to live in order to live for a long time, like those who are poor and bad, it is easy to have a short life, not to mention, staying in a bad place for a long time, people's hearts will also become bad. The wars in North Vietnam and South Vietnam led to a sharp decline in the population of the two countries, and the number of Feng Ming people was not large, in fact, this is also a good thing, the population is small, people can live in rich places, and there will not be so many people to compete for fertile land. The new population of the Phoenix Underworld Kingdom, if it is squeezed, it is enough to live on a better land. ”
Duanmu didn't understand why she suddenly talked about this, but she never said useless nonsense. His eyes narrowed slightly, slightly wary, and he looked at her heavily, waiting for the follow-up.
Morning Light looked at him at this moment, she curled her eyebrows, smiled, and said:
"The Feng Ming people have begun to move, followed by the North Vietnamese people, there are many rocky mountains and salt mines in North Vietnam, and the salt mines have hurt the land, making the land barren and basically unable to grow anything, so I don't plan to let the people live there anymore. It was far away, and there were many rocky mountains to climb, and the road was too difficult to walk, and even if the imperial court wanted to give subsidies, because the road was also weak, I wanted to move them all to a better place. But in this way, it is a pity that the salt mines of North Vietnam are in ruins. There are salt lakes in South Vietnam, which are enough for the use of the Phong Kingdom itself and a small business, but it takes a lot of manpower and material resources to take care of the salt mines in North Vietnam. Calculating, this part of the salt mine will not make Feng Yingguo rich, but will consume too much unnecessary energy. With the current situation of Feng Ming Kingdom, it is a bit reluctant to spend unnecessary energy to manage those salt mines, so I decided to rent out the salt mines in North Vietnam, but I don't know if Yan Yun Kingdom dares to take over this business under the noses of the other three countries. ”
She looked at him with a smirk and said.
Duanmu Yan looked at her.
He didn't believe that she was going to rent the salt mines in North Vietnam because she was struggling to manage, and the little fox must have other plans. In any case, if you take over the salt mines of North Vietnam, it will be a very lucrative business.
Together, North and South Vietnam produce 70 percent of the salt of the entire continent, of which South Vietnam accounts for 40 percent and North Vietnam accounts for 30 percent. However, it is likely that 30% of North Vietnam's production is due to the country's technological lag, which has led to a decrease in production, and if it is mined by a country with excellent mining technology, it is possible that North Vietnam's salt mine production will be higher than that of South Vietnam's salt lakes.
This is an extremely risky business, and the first risk is that once the Yanyun Kingdom accepts it, it will inevitably cause jealousy and resentment from the other three countries; The second risk is that doing business with a silver fox like a feral cat is definitely not a good thing.
But businessmen put profit first, not to mention shopping malls, in which industry is the same, there can be no risk but rich benefits, only the greater the risk, the more lucrative the benefits.
Duanmu Yan didn't expect Chenguang to actually start the idea of the North Vietnamese salt mine, this salt mine Han Zheng regarded them as the foundation of the founding of the country, the strongest weapon of the empire, the last fortress of North Vietnam, nothing is not good, it is impossible to do without the salt mine, the voice of the North Vietnamese country in the Seven Kingdoms depends on this salt mine, Han Zheng protects the salt mine tightly, but Chenguang is about to give it up just after it is beaten, he also admires her courage without hesitation.
"What about the conditions?" After a moment of silence, Duanmu asked.
"The condition is that the Yanyun Kingdom will re-sign a trade agreement with the Fengying Kingdom to have a reciprocal relationship. After all, the Feng Netherworld has come out of the desert and entered Middle-earth, and there are always some things that you Yanyun Kingdom don't want in the market, which is not suitable. ”
She was really planning to make a plate.
The main trading objects of the Yanyun Kingdom were the powerful countries of Chiyang, Cangqiu, and Longxi. Because South Vietnam was controlled by the Chiyang Kingdom, South Vietnam's business dealings were basically with the Chiyang Kingdom, because of this special background, the Yanyun Kingdom could not do it, and over time it abandoned the South Vietnamese Kingdom.
The North Vietnamese State valued the military, valued agriculture and despised the merchants, and the original North Yue Kingdom had no merchants at all, and all industries were controlled by the imperial court, so the Yanyun Kingdom naturally would not deal with them.
Feng Ming Kingdom is similar to Beiyue Kingdom, the only difference is that Feng Ming Kingdom is outrageously biased on the road of attaching importance to military affairs, resulting in several monarchs changing, and the development is not as good as that of North Vietnam.
Feng Ming Kingdom only opened the gate to allow trade after Chenguang returned to the palace, but at that time there were no merchants in Feng Ming Kingdom, and the reason why Duanmu Yan agreed to trade was only because Chang Xi helped him take the throne.
At that time, the so-called trade was nothing more than barter, and the Yanyun Kingdom took away the precious resources in the Feng Ming Kingdom that could be sold for a large price outside the customs, but in exchange for the Feng Ming Kingdom, it was extremely cheap but the Feng Ming Kingdom did not have the materials.
This kind of asymmetry makes people powerless, because if you don't agree to the conditions, you won't even be cheap.
But now it's different, there are businessmen in South Vietnam, and she can pick one at will to support her.
By cooperating with the Yanyun Kingdom, it is possible to get rid of the Chiyang Kingdom's control over the South Yue Kingdom.
Before coming, Chenguang thought that he would first obtain the approval of the Chiyang Kingdom, so that even if other countries were not convinced, he would have to hold back.
But Chiyang Guo is shameless, not to mention her dismount, Emperor Chiyang's calculation is to first unite with the other three kingdoms to stomp on her at the meeting, it is best to scare her guts, and then pretend to save her with the attitude of a benefactor, so that she will be grateful to him, no matter how harsh the conditions he proposes, she will agree. Then he warned the other three countries as the owner of the dog in the Five Kingdoms, so as to establish the prestige of the first country on his continent.
It's really a good calculation, not to mention his own profits, the other four countries have become accompans, and they have to be grateful to him.
Chenguang was originally ready to be opened by the lion of Chiyang Kingdom, after all, being bitten by one is much lighter than being bitten by the other three countries, and the feud between her and Xiao Run about Long Xiguo is not so easy to resolve, so she chose to show goodwill to Chiyang Kingdom first.
But Chiyang Kingdom doesn't know what to do, and she calculates her carefully, she still has to swallow her anger after this is the case, so wouldn't Feng Yingguo always wag his tail at the feet of Chiyang Country and beg for mercy, and let him slaughter him.
Chiyang Kingdom wants to be beautiful!
