Chapter 239: Business Opportunities in Liuzhou (Part I)
"Words. Brother Wei should also be a person with an identity, right? ”
In the huge cabin, in a corner position, Luo Yi covered his nose and looked around, he was not a squeamish person, but the current environment was too bad.
There were hundreds of people crammed into the cabin, although the ship was large, but the cabin was not very breathable, the body odor and foot smell of hundreds of people were mixed together, plus the smell of dry food that was eaten from time to time and the smell of vomiting of seasick people, it was really refreshing to mix together.
It really makes him not used to being a court official for more than 20 years.
Even Wei Chipeng, who often lives in the barracks, frowned a little, he has his own body odor, and he was originally immune to some heavy tastes, but now he is too heavy.
Wei Gongcheng smiled faintly: "No way, there are a lot of people who use ships now, there are not enough ships, the three shipyards are rushing to work, but there are too few professional people, with the current business opportunities in Jiangnan, it is estimated that there will be a shortage of ships in the next two or three years." ”
When Wei Chipeng heard this, he became a little interested: "This kind of ship, there are now three shipyards in Jiangnan that can be built?" ”
"Hmm" Wei Gongcheng looked at each other with a smile, he knew that Yu Chipeng once had a dream of being a sea general, so he also said patiently: "The ship you see now was designed half a year ago, and now the new ship is much bigger, and the academy has begun to research a kind of ship that can make its own power instead of relying on sails, it is estimated that by the end of the year, you will be able to see it." ”
"Oh?" Wei Chipeng studied maritime affairs, and his eyes lit up: "Make your own power, don't rely on sails?" ”
Wouldn't such a ship go wherever it wanted at sea?
Is there really such a thing in this world?
"Academy?" Luo Yi was more curious about this word, he had heard it more than the first time.
Nowadays, many merchants in Nanming Mansion come to resell fresh goods, in addition to daily tea, wine, grain, as well as rare clocks, binoculars and some jewelry that can bring elemental power to escape the heat.
This made him very curious.
The quality of food in Jiangnan is obviously higher, tea and wine have the effect of obviously increasing spiritual power, jewelry, clocks and watches have magical functions, and even the silk worn has functions and colors that ordinary clothes do not have, these things are all researched in the academy.
"Mr. Wei, can you tell me about this?"
"Well, this" Wei Gongcheng looked around, he obviously felt that there were a few scholars in this boat, listening to them carefully.
"The academy was set up by Lord Chen Qing himself to cultivate professional warlock talents."
"Professional Warlock?"
These words not only made Luo Yi's heart move, but a few scholars not far away couldn't help but get closer.
"The academy is called Liuzhou Yin-Yang Academy," Wei Gongcheng said with a smile.
"Liuzhou Yin-Yang Academy?" Luo Yi suddenly smiled: "What a big breath!" ”
All those who are born in the Warlock Academy have a deep sense of glory for the Yin-Yang Academy built by the imperial court, which has the most magic Dao collections in the world, the most complete types of techniques, and the best warlock predecessors to teach, and it is the holy place in the hearts of all the younger generation of warlocks.
Mere Liuzhou, dare to have the same name?
So what does Chen Qing know about the four words of Yin Yang Academy?
"Isn't this the addition of the word Liuzhou?" Wei Gongcheng smiled and said: "There is no intention to compare, not to mention that even if you want to compare, it is not impossible to compare."
"Oh?" Luo Yi suddenly laughed angrily: "It seems that the defeat of the imperial court this time has made Mr. Wei a lot arrogant."
"Huh?" Wei Gongcheng was curious: "The imperial court is just a temptation this time, and it is not the elite who comes, what is there to be arrogant about winning against them?" ”
Yu Chipeng: "."
"Then it seems that Mr. Wei is not a frog at the bottom of the well!" Luo Yi said coldly: "How can you say what you just said?" ”
"Because it's a fact," Wei Gongcheng said with a smile.
"The facts?" Luo Yi lost his temper: "You said that Liuzhou Academy is a place to train warlocks, what are the warlocks in your mouth?" Is it a craftsman? Even the tea, wine and food are all researched by warlocks, and you warlocks in Jiangnan really have a unique style! ”
"The Craftsman is also a type of Warlock." Wei Gongcheng said lightly: "Aren't those warlocks in the Ministry of Imperial Court Industry also the treasures of the major families?" ”
"Can that be the same?" Luo Yi frowned: "Those things made by the Ministry of Industry are all beneficial to the people of the world!" ”
"We are the same" Wei Gongcheng said: "You can sit on this boat, which can make the maritime trade in Jiangnan more developed, and make the circulation of the four seas more frequent, and the food you ate a few days ago can make Jiangnan now able to feed hundreds of millions of people with very little arable land, if this is not to benefit the common people, what is?" ”
Luo Yi: "."
He felt like he couldn't talk to the other person
"The warlocks we cultivate are indeed different from the warlocks of the imperial court, as for how they are different, Lord Luo went to see them in person, and he will know."
"Really?" Luo Yi had no choice but to sullenly say when he heard this: "Then I'll wait and see!" ”
——
The waterway between Liuzhou and Nanming Mansion is not close, and the usual ships are at least half a day's water, but I don't know if this ship has any special power, and it only takes less than two hours to arrive at Liuzhou Port.
When disembarking, the crowded port stunned those foreign merchants who had seen the prosperity of the south of the Yangtze River.
It seems that two years ago, many of them went to Liuzhou, which was almost desolate at that time, but they didn't expect that in just two years, this prosperity and liveliness would be even more prosperous than at its peak.
Before, they predicted that the other states in the south of the Yangtze River were not as strong as the city of Nanming Mansion, and after the outbreak of the living corpses, it would be a purgatory on earth, and there would be no one in the people, but they didn't expect that there were so many people here, and it seemed that they were still living very well.
This port is full of people, not small, for a while people don't feel like they came to Jiangnan, but went to the land of Qinchuan, and they all have ruddy complexions and are full of energy.
Nanming Mansion is the apex of the people's livelihood in the south of the Yangtze River, even if you put the entire Dajin, the lives of ordinary people are among the top three, but at a glance, most of the ordinary people are still with vegetables, and the hard labor of wharf handling, even if they are stronger, they are only slightly better than ordinary people.
Where is it like this, everyone is as strong as a calf, with a ruddy complexion and bright eyes, and I feel that the children of some wealthy merchants who practice martial arts are inferior.
As for the dazzling goods on the dock, it is even more exaggerated, they can't name many things, and they are dazzled when they look at the past!
"Brother Feng, what is this?" A staff member hurriedly pointed to the six ice blue gems that a merchant had just collected not far away.
It is said that it is a gemstone, more like jadeite, because only jadeite can have such a crystal clear color, but I have never heard of a blue jadeite, and the color is amazingly beautiful, like the Antarctic ice in the mouth of the storyteller.
And from afar, you can feel the cool breath emanating from the gem, and as soon as he approached with hot sweat, he felt a sense of comfort.
"Oh, that," the merchant surnamed Feng glanced at and said, "That's jade."
"It's really jade?" A group of people were stunned: "How can Cocoa Jade be blue?" ”
"Because of the enchanted."
"Enchantment?" The words they had never heard before made a group of people widen their eyes: "What does that mean?" ”
"This is the unique ability of the gentlemen of Liuzhou Academy, Dizi Academy, they can give some utensils some special functions, in their words, enchantment, and the best enchantment materials are jade, jade, and some Nanyang jewelry."
The merchant surnamed Feng looked at the blue jade and said: "That thing is very sought-after now, it has the effect of avoiding the heat in summer, and you can carry it with you, even under the scorching sun, your surroundings are also very cool, and it belongs to luxury goods!" ”
"And this kind of thing?" A group of people suddenly had a light in their eyes, the summer is hot, many rich businessmen are using ice cubes to escape the heat, but that thing is too easy to cause fever, and most of the rich people are very busy, many times outside to socialize, what is missing is this kind of magical thing, when I think of the gem that can make the surroundings cool just now, it is so good-looking, if this is taken out for entertainment on weekdays, I am afraid that the face is more than any rare treasure.
Especially for noble girls, summer is the time to wear cool and thin skirts, but because it is too hot, rouge gouache is most likely to be wet by sweat, and many places are beautiful, but because of the weather, the nobles pause, if there is that thing
You don't have to think about it to know that once this thing appears in the capital or other wealthy cities, it will definitely be speculated to sky-high prices!
I'm afraid that after my wife, son, and daughter know about this thing, they will force themselves to buy a piece of it.
"Good stuff, really good stuff!" A group of outsiders were surprised and distrusted Gu Beiquan and the others in their hearts, it turned out that there were so many good things hidden in Jiangnan, and this group of guys was really tight enough!
Suddenly, there was some luck in my heart, and this time the imperial court had not successfully conquered Jiangnan!
"Brother Feng said, the depreciation of gold and silver here is serious, and in addition to the special fragrant silver released by Chen Qing, the best currency is jade and gemstones? Does it have anything to do with this so-called enchantment? ”
"Hey, hey. Brother Zhang's reaction was fast. The merchant surnamed Feng nodded and said: "That's true, about half a year ago, after the enchantment method of the Dizi Courtyard came out, high-quality jade and jade became a sought-after item, because the means of enchantment are extremely magical, avoiding the heat, cold, fragrance and deodorization, and even. Some can also fly. ”
"What did Brother Feng say?" A few people next to him froze for a moment, thinking that they had misheard.
"Sounds incredible, right?" The businessman surnamed Feng was proud, and sure enough, the former Nanming people had all become dirt buns.
"I'll take you to see and see!"
