As soon as the unsuccessful talents sent to Lingnan by the King of Wei and the King of Chu arrived at the Swamp Mansion, they were arranged by Zhao Yao clearly. Not all of these talents have to stay in the swamp province, and some of them have to be sent to other state capitals. However, due to the upcoming trade conference in the swamp province, they were in urgent need of manpower, so they all stayed in the swamp province to help for the time being.

These days, these talented people are being trained in the Ministry of Rites. Their main role in the trade conference was to entertain foreign guests, let them know about the Marsh Province, and feel the charm of the ceremonial state of the Great Zhou.

There are many training programs in the Ministry of Rites, and first of all, the talented people have to understand the swamp house first. The talented people are not familiar with the Marsh Mansion, how to introduce the Marsh Mansion to foreign guests.

The talented people are all coming to the Swamp Mansion for the first time, and naturally they don't know anything about the Swamp Mansion. Before coming to Marsh House, their impression of Marsh House was that it was dilapidated, old, poor, dirty, and messy, just a poor country. When they arrived at the Swamp Mansion, they found that the Swamp Mansion was completely different from what they had imagined.

Although the swamp mansion they saw was not very large, and it was not as prosperous as the capital, it was not dilapidated at all, very neat and clean, and very beautiful.

What shocked them the most was that the official roads and streets inside and outside the swamp house were all paved with cement, which was very smooth and beautiful. There is also the wall of the Marsh House, which is very grand and majestic, and it is not lost to the rest of the interior at all.

What shocked them the most was the pier in Marsh Province, which was several times larger than the dock in the capital. However, since the trade conference has not yet opened, the terminal is not bustling with activity. When the trade conference opened, they could imagine how lively the docks in Swamp Province would become.

By the way, the four restaurants in the east, south, west and north of the wharf of Marsh Mansion are more luxurious than the first restaurant in Beijing. Also, the service in these four restaurants is called service, which is very good and can really make guests feel at home.

Also, the boats docked at the pier are very different. It is said that these tall and mighty ships were designed by His Royal Highness the King of Han, and they are very powerful.

Leave the pier and head south, there will be a large park. A park is similar to a garden, and the park is open to everyone, which means that anyone can come to the park to enjoy the flowers, go out, and play. Here, there is no distinction between high and low.

Although the park is not as good as the garden of the rich and noble, it is also very beautiful. There are beautiful concrete paths, all kinds of flowers that they haven't seen before, trees they haven't seen before, and most importantly there is a big lake in the middle of the park, the water is very clear and you can take a boat on the lake. Fishing is also possible at the lake.

In addition to these, there are also many fruit trees planted in the park, which they have never seen before. When the fruit is ripe, the people can pick and eat it as they like without having to pay.

They thought they were full of poetry and books, and there was nothing they didn't know. When they came to the Swamp Mansion, they found that there were many things in the Swamp Mansion that they had never seen or heard of. Everything here amazed them. Here, of course, too, they feel their own ignorance.

Before they came, they were still worried about miasma, and they heard that Lingnan was perennially filled with a thick miasma that could not be dispersed, and many Lingnan people died of miasma. When they arrived, they found that there was no miasma at all in the swamp house. I heard that miasma is only found in the mountains and forests.

The weather in Marsh Province is hot, the climate is not dry, and most importantly, it is a great place with the smell of birds and flowers.

Before coming to the swamp mansion, the talented people had all kinds of worries. When I came to the swamp house, the anxiety in my heart disappeared, and I immediately liked it.

The talents learned that the Swamp Mansion was not like this before, it was similar to what they imagined, it was only after His Royal Highness the King of Han came down that the Swamp Mansion was changed so beautiful and clean.

It is said that the current Marsh House has not yet been completely built. They were so shocked that the Marsh Mansion had not yet been built, and they didn't dare to imagine what it would be like when the Marsh Mansion was completely built.

The shock of the swamp mansion made the talented people say that they couldn't finish it for three days and three nights. Let's talk about the training of the talents.

After the talents are familiar with the entire Marsh Mansion, they also need to know what specialties the Marsh Mansion has. Speaking of fruits, there are lychees, longans, sugar cane, oranges, peaches, etc. The oranges and peaches in the swamp province are not the same as those in the capital. By the way, there are many medicinal herbs and grains that are not available in the capital. In short, the swamp province is rich in products.

When they learned about these things, they were able to introduce them to the Gentile guests and attract them to buy them. These things are all business, and they are all money.

At first, the talents were very dismissive of doing business to make money, and felt insulting. However, when they learned about the impact of doing business and making money on the people of Marsh Province, they no longer took it lightly.

In addition to knowing and familiarizing themselves with these things, the talented people also had to learn foreign languages. I don't have time to learn some simple phrases for everyday life.

Previously, Zhao Yao specially invited many people from Annam and Johor who were familiar with their local and Great Zhou languages to come to the swamp province to teach the officials of the swamp province to learn foreign languages.

After the end of the trade conference, the Sifang Pavilion will be set up to allow more people to learn foreign languages.

Zhao Yao had seen the talented people when they first arrived in the Swamp Mansion, and he didn't have time to see them later. He was busy summoning merchants from countries such as Annam and Johor, who had come to find the swamp province in advance.

These foreign merchants came to the Swamp Mansion in advance to celebrate the Duanyang Festival of the Great Zhou.

The foreign merchants who came to the swamp province were not ordinary merchants, but merchants who were well-known in their own country, or who did a lot of business, including the imperial merchants.

Although these foreign merchants knew that Zhao Yao, His Royal Highness the King of Han, was very good at making novel things, they saw that Zhao Yao was young and thought that he was so foolish, but they didn't expect him to be even more difficult than their old fritters. What surprised them the most was that His Royal Highness the King of Han actually knew the language of their country, and he spoke it very well. Not only that, but he also knows their situation very well, and the affairs of their country. There were even some secret things that His Royal Highness the King of Han knew, which shocked them very much.

After seeing the methods of His Royal Highness the King of Han, the merchants of foreign countries did not dare to underestimate him for half a point. talked about business with Zhao Yao, and he didn't dare to fool around, and began to show sincerity. At first, they didn't give much sincerity, but they didn't expect that His Royal Highness King Han also knew their business very well, which made them very afraid.

His Royal Highness the King of Han knows everything about them, this ...... What does this mean...... They didn't dare to think about it. Sure enough, the people of the Great Zhou are very insidious and cunning, and they cannot be underestimated.

Zhao Yao felt that the conditions offered to these foreign merchants were good enough, after all, they were exempted from many customs duties. If they still rub their noses and faces, then don't blame him for being polite. He had anticipated the dishonesty of the foreign merchants in doing business with him, and that was why he would give them a disadvantage.

When he decided to report the trade conference, Zhao Yao sent people to investigate the royal families, nobles, wealthy gentry and merchants of the countries near the Great Zhou, and they were very detailed.

Knowing oneself and knowing one's opponent can survive a hundred battles, and if you don't know the situation of these people, how to handle them, no, how to do business with them.

The Gentile merchants did not know that they had Zhao Yao's people around them, and some of them were still their confidants. It is impossible for them to succeed if they want to play tricks in front of Zhao Yao.

Don't dare to play tricks anymore, foreign businessmen honestly talk to Zhao Yao about business.

When Zhao Yao was talking about business with those foreign merchants, Uncle Gao was present, and he was frightened by Zhao Yao's shrewdness, insidiousness, and treachery.

Although he had long known that Zhao Yao had a scheming plan, he had never felt it directly. This time he was talking about business with a foreign merchant, and he felt it directly.

Uncle Gao said to He Lianfang with emotion: "Your Highness, is it really only seventeen years old? I think he was more cunning in his dealings with foreign merchants than profiteers who had been in business for decades. ”

He Lianfang felt that Uncle Gao was making a fuss, "Did you know him on the first day, what kind of person he is, didn't you already know?" ”

Uncle Gao smiled wryly: "I know, but it's not the same as I imagined, this time I really feel that His Royal Highness is not as ...... as he usually shows" Uncle Gao, who has read a lot, couldn't think of the right words to describe it for a while, and after holding it for a long time, he could only say, "Childish." "Your Highness is like a child in front of them on weekdays.

"Where is the childish thing he does?"

Uncle Gao scratched his head and said, "That's it...... His Highness is usually like a child, and I forgot the things he did, and now I suddenly see his calculating side, and to be honest, I was a little shocked. ”

"Calculation, you mean that the king of Han calculates those foreign merchants?"

"Yes, you didn't see His Highness dumbfounded on those birdmen's calculations." Because he couldn't understand what the foreign merchants were saying, Uncle Gao said that they spoke the language of birds, and they were birdmen.

He Lianfang shook her head amusedly: "King Han just gave them a dismount, and he didn't calculate them. If you really want King Han to spend time calculating them, it is not as simple as doing business with them. ”

"What do you mean?" Uncle Gao heard it in a fog.

"If King Han really calculates them, then their business will become King Han's, or it will go out of business directly."

Uncle Gao: "......" Well, it's what he thinks is simple.

"Then again, why does Your Highness know so much about the situation of these birdmen?" Uncle Gao was suddenly startled and said, "Also, why does His Highness speak bird language, and he speaks it so well." "If you only listen to the voice and don't look at the people, everyone will think that Your Highness is one of those birdmen.

He Lianfang felt that Uncle Gao had drunk every day during this time, and his brain had been drunk, so he actually asked such a stupid question.

Seeing that He Lianfang was silent, Uncle Gao asked again.

"You didn't bring your brains when you went out today?" This sentence was learned by He Lianfang from Zhao Yao.

Uncle Gao: "......"

"Do you think that the King of Han will hold a trade conference without investigating anything, and do business with these Gentiles?" After Annam was captured and became a vassal state of the Great Zhou, Zhao Yao sent people to infiltrate Annam, and then sent people to Johor and Siam and other countries. Now, some of the people sent by Zhao Yao are still holding important positions in these countries.

After Uncle Gao was asked by He Lianfang, he realized how stupid his question was just now. No wonder the general didn't want to deal with him. The second question doesn't need to be answered by the general, it must be that His Highness is smart and will learn it.

"General, there won't be any people from His Highness in these foreign countries, right?"

He Lianfang asked rhetorically, "What do you say?" ”

Uncle Gao exclaimed: "Sure enough. ”

"You'll eat more fish in the future." He Lianfang suggested.

Uncle Gao asked puzzledly, "Why do you eat more fish?" ”

He Lianfang said expressionlessly: "Make up for your brain." ”

Uncle Gao who was connotated: "......"

"Ahem, cough, just now, His Highness used General Tiger to deter those birdmen, didn't you see how wonderful those birdmen were when they saw General Tiger listening to His Highness's words like a cat." Uncle Gao bluntly changed the topic, "One of the birdmen thought that General Tiger was really as obedient as a cat, and wanted to reach out and touch General Tiger, but he was almost bitten off by General Tiger, and he was so frightened that he peed his pants on the spot." After saying that, Uncle Gao laughed out loud.

He Lianfang glanced at Uncle Gao, who was laughing and laughing, and said jokingly: "At the beginning, weren't you like this." ”

Uncle Gao froze suddenly, then pretended not to hear anything, and continued casually: "After those birdmen saw the power of General Tiger, they became more and more in awe of His Highness, and then they should no longer dare to underestimate His Highness. ”
