Chapter 473: Return to the heart like an arrow
Feng Zhidai, who was evaluated by Feng Ang as calm, now has no calm appearance at all, he is nearly half a hundred years old, he jumped up directly, it can be seen how shocked he is in his heart, how dissatisfied he is, Li Yong wants to divide with their Feng family, this is really too unexpected for him, he never dreamed that Li Yong's appetite is so big, it is simply too big, this is not a lion's big mouth, this is a gluttonous big mouth, the difference between eighty-two and sixty-four is too much, sixty-four is already the bottom line of their Feng family, unacceptable, Feng Zhidai couldn't accept it at all, Feng Zhidai shook his head and said categorically.
"This can't be, I'll tell you frankly, four or six points is already our bottom line, our Feng family is already the biggest concession when it comes out of the boat and contributes forty percent, Hua Tinghou only has one idea but wants to account for eighty percent, how can there be such a reason in the world!"
Feng Ang didn't speak, Li Yong knew that the two of them were singing white and red, but the decision was in Feng An's hands, so Li Yong didn't pay attention to Feng Zhidai's questioning at all, Li Yong smiled.
"In fact, the last time I had a banquet, the old man opened his mouth to be fifty-fifty, I know that the fifty-fifty split given by the old man at that time was very sincere, to be honest, I was very moved!"
What he said was not a lie, at that time Feng Ang didn't know that he had artillery, and he didn't know that he also needed to set up a city division to go to sea, so at that time, Feng Ang was able to offer a fifty-fifty share of the conditions, which was indeed very sincere, Feng Ang nodded.
"Indeed, the first time he invited Hua Tinghou, the old man felt that Hua Tinghou was an open person, so he openly and honestly made conditions!"
Li Yong said with a smile.
"When I went south, the principals of the entire Jiangnan clan gathered in Yuhang, they were all waiting to see me, wanting to cooperate with me, the family has never seen a sea ship equipped with artillery, only the old man has seen it, if those families have also seen a sea ship equipped with artillery, I am confident that I can talk about the conditions to fifty or fifty, is the old country trusted?"
Feng Zhidai couldn't help but be stunned when he heard it, can Li Yong talk about the conditions if he talks about time? Thinking of the power of the sea ship equipped with artillery, Feng Zhidai also had to admit that Li Yong's words were not alarmist, and Feng An's face also flashed with a thoughtful look, and he bowed slightly.
"Hua Tinghou is right, old man letter!"
Li Yong said seriously.
"Then why should I go far at the expense of the near? You don't know what the situation is in Lingnan, it's not worth it for me to come to Lingnan to cooperate with the Feng family! ”
Feng Zhidai and Feng Ang were silent when they heard this, thinking about it, if it were them, they would rather find a fifty-fifty division of the Jiangnan clan than come to Lingnan to cooperate with sixty-four divisions, Lingnan is too remote and too poor, after speaking, Li Yong took the tea a little leisurely and tasted it quietly, looking like he was sitting firmly fishing, in fact, since he came to Guangzhou City, he has always been sitting firmly on the Diaoyutai platform, although sixty-four is the bottom line of the Feng family, but now Feng Zhidai also understands that sixty-four is not able to impress Li Yong at all, But the Feng family can't give up going to sea, and they must seize this opportunity to let the imperial court set up a city department in Lingnan, Feng Zhidai said in a deep voice.
"Huatinghou, before coming, sixty-four points were the bottom line we discussed, but since Huatinghou said so, then let's take a step back, seven-three points, the people of Lingnan are poor! Huatinghou's benevolence is famous all over the world, please take pity on the poor people of Lingnan! ”
While speaking, Feng Zhidai got up and gave a deep salute to Li Yong, his face was full of earnestness, this was pressing him in the name of righteousness! Li Yong snorted his tea lightly, his face did not change in the slightest, in fact, he also made up his mind to set up a city division in Lingnan, because the current Lingnan is not completely at home to the imperial court, and it is very poor, Li Yong also wants Lingnan to completely return to his heart, and he also wants the people of Lingnan to no longer live in poverty, but for Feng Zhidai to pressure him in the name of righteousness, Li Yong is not interested in this at all, because he is not a Lingnan person, and your Feng family is a Lingnan person! And it's also the king of Lingnan! If you want to pity the people of Lingnan, it should be your Feng family who has regressed! Your Feng family retreated for the people of Lingnan, that is the real righteousness, so Li Yong was not moved by Feng Zhidai's sincere salute at all, at this time, Feng Ang finally spoke, and said in a deep voice.
"Okay, then eighty-two will be divided, and our Feng family will account for two percent!"
Feng Zhidai exclaimed when he heard this.
"Daddy?"
He was about to grind with Li Yong again, but he didn't expect the old man to agree, eighty-two shares, to be honest, he was really unwilling, the Feng family sent people out of the ship, and it took a lot of effort to make it so that they could only account for two percent, how could there be such a reason? However, the situation is stronger than the people! Because the Feng family does not have much capital to negotiate at all, the reason why Feng Ang decisively agreed is because he has already seen that it is impossible for Li Yong to make concessions, and they do not have the advantage of forcing Li Yong to make concessions, it is useless to rely only on soft grinding and hard bubbles, and it is useless to press Li Yong in the name of righteousness, people like Li Yong are determined and have traveled thousands of miles to Lingnan, how can they give in with a few words of soft grinding and hard bubbles? Feng Ang felt that the eighty-two division should be the result that Li Yong had thought about a long time ago, and it was even possible that Li Yong had the intention of eighty-two division so he went south to Lingnan, so there was no need to continue to negotiate with Li Yong, it was better to agree happily, Feng Ang asked.
"Huating Hou came all the way to Lingnan because of the eighty-two division, right?"
Li Yong didn't hide it either, and nodded.
"The old man is really wise, yes, I just feel that I have the certainty of eighty-two points with the old country, so I don't hesitate to go south, if it is not eighty-two points, I will not go south, if it is not eighty-two points, I will not cooperate, Lingnan is too far, there is no need!"
Feng Zhidai couldn't help but be silent when he heard this, their Feng family didn't have any other bargaining chips except for ships and people, so although he was helpless, he also had to accept this result, Feng Ang raised his glass and said.
"Okay, then eighty-two points, our Feng family accounts for two percent, let's have a happy cooperation!"
Although he was still very depressed in his heart, Feng Zhidai was an heir who had been cultivated for decades after all, and he quickly adjusted his mentality, Feng Zhidai asked.
"When does Hua Tinghou plan to go to sea? Where are you going to go to sea? ”
Li Yong explained with a smile.
"It will take next year to set up the City Shipping Division, so you can go to sea once this year, your sea ship can follow my gunboat to the sea, pull the goods and go straight to the Japanese country, after leaving the goods, go to the Spice Island empty, all filled with spices, and then return back, how about it?"
Feng Zhidai, who was still a little depressed in his heart, couldn't help but feel excited when he heard Li Yong's words, he didn't know how much profit he could make by transporting goods to the Japanese country. But going to Spice Island to transport spices back can definitely make a windfall, and Li Yong knows the location of Spice Island, so he can be so capricious and let the fleet go straight to Spice Island, Feng Zhidai listened to the depression in his heart and asked.
"What do you want to bring? What profit can a small overseas country have? ”
Li Yong said with a smile.
"The country is very poor, not enough to eat and clothe, but that place produces gold, silver and copper, but the materials are not rich, and there is no money to buy, let's bring some fabrics, ceramics, tea over, you think, their fabrics, ceramics how can we have the gorgeous and exquisite Tang Dynasty? It will definitely cause a sensation, let them exchange a lot of gold and silver with us! ”
Feng Zhidai couldn't help licking his lips when he heard this, if the country is rich in gold and silver, then with ceramics and fabrics, it will definitely be exchanged for gold and silver, Li Yong said with a smile.
"Those small countries overseas do not have such exquisite skills as our Datang, so the things we make are treasures to bring over, but those poor places are also rich in gold, silver, gems and spices, and once they are brought back, they will be worth a fortune!"
Feng Ang nodded when he heard this.
"That's what Hua Tinghou said!"
Li Yong said with a smile.
"The hustle and bustle of the world is for profit, the hustle and bustle of the world is for profit, once the sea trade flourishes in Guangzhou City, there will naturally be businessmen to buy and sell here, and the whole Lingnan will be revitalized!"
Feng Ang groaned.
"What if those ships follow our fleet?"
Li Yong said with a smile.
"The Wa Kingdom is actually not small, so the business of the Wa Kingdom is not enough for the size of our current fleet, and the ships of the family can also grope to the Wa Kingdom for a few years, and there is no need to keep it secret at all, so if the ships of the Wa family follow, then let them follow to the Wa Kingdom, but if they want to follow to the Spice Island, then they can't help it!"
Feng Zhidai couldn't help nodding when he heard this, it didn't matter if he let the family's ship follow him to the Wa Kingdom, but the family coveted the Spice Island and wanted to go to the Spice Island, that wouldn't work, just with the sharpness of the artillery, it was too simple to drive away those of the family's sea ships, in the front hall, Li Yong took out the navigation manual, and Feng Ang's father and son talked until late, the Feng family, Feng Zhiyu, and Feng Zhiji had been waiting anxiously until late at night, and finally waited for the old man to come back.
"How's it going, Dad? How's it going? ”
Feng Zhiyu and Feng Zhiyu couldn't wait to ask.
Feng Zhidai explained.
"It's negotiated, 28 percent, we account for 20 percent, and Li Yong accounts for 80 percent."
Feng Zhiyu and Feng Zhiyu almost didn't jump up when they heard this, is this still called a negotiation?
"Twenty-eight? How does this work? Li Yong, this is a lion with his mouth wide open, Dad, why do you agree? Second brother, how did you talk about it? ”
Feng Zhiyu asked repeatedly, the two of them really couldn't accept this result, Feng Zhidai explained.
"Li Yong won't give an inch, we have too few chips, and we can only accept the result."
At first, he also felt unacceptable and very depressed, but after a long talk with Li Yong, he suddenly felt that the twenty-eight points were also quite fragrant, and Feng Zhiji said with a sad face.
"Twenty-eight is too little, even if it's three or seven!"
Feng Ang waved his hand.
"Li Yong just went south to Lingnan with the purpose of 28 points, except for 28 points, he didn't accept it, now the dust has settled, 28 points will make 28 points!"
Now that the old man has agreed, it is impossible to regret it, and it is impossible to talk to Li Yong again, although Feng Zhiji and Feng Zhiyu brothers are very depressed, they can only accept it. Seeing the depressed expressions of the two of them, Feng Zhidai smiled.
"I have already discussed with Li Yong, I will go to sea this year, first transport the goods to the Japanese country, and then go to the spice island to pick spices and turn ......"
Before Feng Zhidai finished speaking, Feng Zhiji and Feng Zhiyu's eyes lit up, but they didn't expect Li Yong to hide his selfishness at all, and directly let the fleet go to Spice Island, they listened to Feng Zhidai, listened, the depression in their hearts gradually dissipated, but they cheered up, going to sea is really a source of money, it would be a pity if you missed it, if you don't set up a city in Lingnan, their Feng family will not be able to get a piece of the sea trade at all, so it is not a loss to account for two percent, in the manor, Li Yong, who sent away Feng An's father and son, also breathed a sigh of relief, This trip to Lingnan finally did not run in vain, everything was settled, Li Yong stretched his waist, suddenly very homesick, in Chang'an and Xishan or Huating County is not a long time, but Li Yong seems to regard these three places as his hometown, when he thinks of Princess Changle who is alone in the empty bed, Li Yong's heart is more and more longing and hot, all the way to Lingnan, I don't have time to send a letter to Changle, and I don't know what Changle's worries have become.
"Master Hou, have you negotiated?"
Luo Fengxiang asked with concern, although they didn't understand the matter of sea trade, but they knew that it must be very important to let Li Yong travel thousands of miles south, Li Yong stretched his waist and said with a smile.
"It's settled! You're pretty much packed, right? ”
Lin Ruoxi nodded.
"It's been packed up early in the morning, but there's actually nothing to clean up!"
They galloped all the way south, and they didn't bring anything at all, they just came to Guangzhou City to buy some things, Li Yong nodded.
"Okay, then we'll leave for the north tomorrow!"
Lin Ruoxi and Luo Fengxiang were surprised when they heard this.
"Going north tomorrow?"
Li Yong said with a smile.
"Yes, I'll go north tomorrow, now that it's been negotiated, why are you still staying in Lingnan? It's so hot, there's a lot of mosquitoes, and I'm really homesick! ”
Lingnan is indeed hot and humid and there are a lot of mosquitoes, Lin Ruoxi and Luo Fengxiang often complain, but when they really heard Li Yong say that they wanted to leave Lingnan, they were very reluctant, because there were the best memories of their lives, which really made them reluctant to leave, and Li Yong went north to Yuhang, Wu Cao and they would appear by Li Yong's side, and then continue to go north, there were many women around Li Yong, so now every moment they get along with Li Yong, they cherish it very much, although they are reluctant to leave, but they don't say anythingOf course, Li Yong doesn't feel that there is any danger in staying in Lingnan, since he has reached a peace agreement with the Feng family, then the Feng family is more likely to be unfavorable to him, he just feels a little like an arrow, Liu Ren and other soldiers are very happy when they hear that they are going to return to Chang'an, they also feel like an arrow, and they also feel like an arrow, and they are all northerners, and the climate in Lingnan is really difficult for them to accept.
