The climate and geographical location of the South Seas are the most suitable for the growth of spices, so the spices there grow better than other places, and the quality is naturally the best!

"The quality of these spices is really good, according to the past, they can indeed be sold for fifteen to twenty gold, but now it may not be!"

Ying Feiyu threw the spices back, and a smile appeared on her white little face.

"Why is that?"

Zhang Han was puzzled.

Spices have always been very rare, and why not now?

"Rare is expensive, and the spices were brought back by merchants from foreign countries before, and the quantity was very small, so the price was high! And now that three million catties are pouring in all of a sudden, the price is bound to fall! ”

"This ......"

As soon as he heard that the price would drop, Zhang Han's face suddenly turned bad.

The mouth that was originally grinning to the back of the head has also shrunk back.

"But Zhang Shangshu doesn't have to worry too much, although the price has dropped, as long as it is reasonably controlled, it will not drop too much!"

Ying Feiyu couldn't help laughing.

"Whew......! I was scared, and I thought that the bamboo basket was empty! ”

Hearing this, Zhang Han breathed a sigh of relief.

"Not really!"

"I don't know how to control this reasonable control?"

"It's easy! After the spices are dried, they can be stored for a long time, and they can be dispersed to various counties and counties, not all concentrated in Xianyang, so that the price should not drop too hard! ”

"Hmmm! Got it! ”

Zhang Han thought for a moment and nodded.

Daqin has 36 counties, and now it has added Xiongnu County, Wo County, Jizi County, Chen County, as well as Loulan and Donghu County, which have just surrendered, and there are already 42 counties!

Three million catties of spices are scattered, and each county is 70,000 catties.

It's still a very sought-after existence!

This thing doesn't look like a gem, just buy it back and just look at it!

Spices are consumables, and if you use them, you won't be able to do so!

So 70,000 catties in a county will soon be consumed!

……

The spices were pulled for three days and three nights, and the officials of the household department and the hired coolies took turns to work, and finally the spices were poured back from the ship to the treasury!

A huge storeroom is full.

Such a huge fortune has attracted a lot of officials to be greedy!

Those officials who were worried about Nanyang spices before, but didn't dare to act rashly, are now all gathered together to study this matter!

"In the past few days, Zhang Han's old pickers have been exhausted, and he has been watching the convoy pull spices endlessly, for fear that someone will steal one!"

"Hey! I don't think he was tired, but laughed, and he ran into a few times in the city, and the smile on his face never broke! ”

"Can you not be happy? It took a lot of effort for the imperial court to come up with 10 million gold before, and even our money was delayed again and again, and it was only issued when it could not be delayed! And after these spices are sold, at least 30 million gold! Guarding so much money all day long, if it were me, I would be happy......! ”

A few ministers found a remote private room in the Flaming Mountain, asked for some skewers, two pots of wine, and drank them while saying those jealous sour words.

"I didn't expect that there are really endless spices in Nanyang!"

One of the ministers took a sip of wine and said with a flat mouth.

"How? Now that the navy has returned, should we build a ship and go to the South Seas for a wave? ”

When the Navy was first launched, everyone had this plan.

But I didn't know the reality of Nanyang, and I was afraid that I would run in vain, so I dispelled this idea and planned to wait for the navy to come back before making a decision!

Now not only is the Navy back, but also the endless spices!

Listening to the news that has come out in the past few days, it seems that there are not only a lot of spices on the island, but also some stupid natives who can exchange a few rags, copper basins, and clay pots for gems the size of eggs.

Many soldiers have made a fortune relying on this, and the family will not have to worry about food and clothing in this life!

In the court, they belong to the most marginal ministers, and if they are fine, Yingzheng will not think of them at all.

I couldn't talk to the prince, so I could only hold that meager amount of money bitterly!

If they can also go on a wave, whether it is collecting spices or exchanging gems with the natives, they can greatly improve their current living standards!

"Hmmm! I think it's doable! As long as we pick back a boatload of spices and sell them, we can return to our capital, and then we will make our profits! ”

"That's right! I also think so, this is definitely a good opportunity to make a fortune! ”

The two middle-aged ministers spoke firmly.

"Yes...... The price of the steamship is not cheap, the last time His Majesty purchased it has reached one million and fifty thousand gold, how can we have so much money? ”

Spices were a great temptation, but the thought of the high price of the ship made the older minister flinch slightly.

"This is simple, let's just use the method used by the prince when he was preparing to build the winery!"

A young minister, with a gleam in his eyes.

"What do you do when you set up a distillery?"

The others blinked in confusion.

"But raising money to buy shares?"

A moment later, a minister's eyes suddenly lit up.

"That's right! At the beginning, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince was also short of money, so he adopted the method of raising funds to buy shares, and found His Majesty and Tongwu Hou and others to buy shares and build a winery, what is happening now? A rich flow of oil! ”

"We can also raise funds to buy shares, those who have money will have more, and those with thin families will have less, and after the spices are shipped back, they can be divided according to the shares!"

The young minister explained in a calm tone.

"That's right! We can contribute money together, and each family will come up with a few more people who go to the island to pick spices! ”

The ministers' eyes lit up suddenly.

"Well, the steamship is covered in fine iron, and it will definitely be able to withstand the wind and waves, and I heard the sailors say that the natives on the island will not take the initiative to attack people, and they can help us pick spices when the time comes!"

"In the future, I will make a fortune, but I will rely on this steamer!"

"That's right! Even if there are fewer and fewer spices in the future, selling the steamship can be exchanged for a lot of money, and it will not be a loss......! ”

After some deliberation, more than a dozen ministers immediately reached an agreement and set the target on Nanyang.

"A certain family is not thick, so I will go home to raise money, so that a few sons who have already started a family, but are not in the climate, will have a little bit of money, and when the time comes, I can take them with me!"

"Yes, my situation is similar to yours, I have to call all the children together when I go back, to see if there is anyone willing to pay, if not, I have to sell the valuable ones in the family for some money!"

"No matter how successful you are compared to me, at least the children are all married and have a business, and I can give some of them, so I can only rely on mortgage real estate and real estate to get a loan in the bank!"

"Everyone's pretty much the same! The opportunity to make a fortune is right in front of you, and you can't just slip away! When the other ministers react, it is estimated that they will not even be able to buy a boat! ”

"No! If everyone goes to Nanyang to pick spices, the price will be greatly discounted, far less than now, and it will be impossible to make money! ”

"That's right! Don't care what, we have to make this wave of money quickly! ”

……

A table of meat skewers was still steaming, and the wine had just been drunk two or three glasses, and several ministers reached an agreement to hurry home to make money, and strive to become the first wave of people outside the imperial court to go to Nanyang to make money!
