"Boss Wen, there won't be a problem! There are all kinds of rumors in Kyoto, but I'm afraid of ......"

In Guiling, in a luxurious box, several richly dressed merchants gathered, led by Wen Xu, who were all from Kyoto.

Merchants! All kinds of well-informed people have some connections in officialdom, and I have heard some rumors about talented people.

Now that all roads leading to the southwest are set up with checkpoints, these people naturally sensed that something was wrong, so they gathered together to discuss countermeasures.

Wen Xue also frowned, and said, "Not really!" It was a thankless task for the imperial court to do so. ”

"Boss Wen, this is not a matter of flattery, the prince has committed a taboo, the one above is obviously dissatisfied, this is to be comprehensively suppressed, look at this posture, I am afraid that it is not trivial."

"Not bad! This southwest, I'm afraid it's going to be difficult, how should we be good. ”

"Humph! What if the prince is taboo? He is for the sake of leaving the dynasty, for the sake of the people, the surname Guo is not a thing, for his own selfish desires, he actually cares for the life of the prince and hundreds of millions of people, he should be killed! ”

"The words are good, you and I both know that the prince is for the people, and there is anger in his heart, but after all, he has committed a taboo, and the king has been taboo the most since ancient times."

"Forget it! Don't discuss these things, we can't control them, let's talk about what we can manage! What should we do now, the news from Kyoto, this lockdown will continue, it will not end for a while, and once it is ......"

The merchants were talking, and their brows couldn't help frowning.

Once the southwest is blocked, it will undoubtedly be a trouble for them, which means that their investment in the southwest is likely to be lost.

Because the goods can't be shipped out at all.

"What then? Is it divestment? If you withdraw now, the previous investment will be all wasted. ”

"It's better to put in the water before than to put in the water with all the investment."

"What are you talking about? It's not that good, you're just thinking about running away? What did the prince do to the merchant before? Shang even allowed merchants to participate in the imperial examinations. ”

"Not bad! If you want to go, I won't withdraw anyway. ”

"Isn't this a consultation with everyone! We don't want to leave, it's just that if something like this happens, we have to have a bottom. ”

"Didn't the Seventh Lady already say it, the prince will solve it as soon as possible."

"That's true, but the prince didn't show up after all."

“……”

This is also a great talent, replaced by other people, these people may have made trouble.

Because of the great talent, everyone believes in the great talent, so they refrain from it, but it is inevitable that they will go up and down in their hearts.

"Boss Wen, you have something to say!"

Everyone couldn't help but look at Wen Xu, Wen Xu is relatively famous in the Kyoto merchant circle, and he played a great role in the Changjin County incident, and he is very familiar with the great talent, so his influence in the Kyoto merchant circle is also greater.

Wen Xu glanced at everyone and said, "I don't know what will happen to the southwest, but what is like in Kyoto and Ezhou, I guess you all know it, right?" ”

"After the prince left, the officials of the Ministry of Commerce were replaced, and the previous style came up again, and the situation in Ezhou is the same, I am sure that before the accident in the southwest, there will definitely be an accident in Kyoto and Ezhou."

"Leaving the prince's jurisdiction, no one in other places pays attention to merchants at all, so it's better to stay and tide over the difficulties with the prince."

“……”

"That's right! I agree, all the masters of the court are a virtue. ”

"Not bad! The officials before the Ministry of Commerce have also come to the southwest now, and the Seventh Lady is forming the Southwest Ministry of Commerce, the prince will not let the southwest be blocked, he must have a way. ”

"The prince has no character, I'm afraid that the current situation is unsolvable!"

"Boss Wen, why don't you ask the prince, so that everyone can have a bottom."

“……”

Similar conversations are staged among various groups of businessmen, after all, such a big thing has happened, and it is obviously false to say that you are not worried.

is still the same sentence, because of the great talent, everyone is calmer, and others may not know what will happen.

The businessman's anxiety naturally couldn't be hidden from Lin Bai, and when something like this happened, it was normal to have such a reaction, and he was not surprised at all.

It seems that you have to step up, although your reputation is useful, but it will definitely not work for a long time.

That night, the great talent gathered several beautiful ladies.

"What? Going to Vientiane? ”

Yan Ruxue said worriedly, "Husband, it's not good for you to go to Vientiane Country like this!" A while ago, a war broke out in the southwest and Vientiane, and there were many casualties, so it was extremely dangerous to rush forward. ”

"Not bad!"

The girls are worried about their husband's safety, after all, they only fought a war not long ago! It's really risky to go at this time, and if you don't follow the rules, it will be a big trouble.

Lin Bai was naturally a little afraid, but there was no way, he was not at ease to let other people go.

This trip is about the future of the southwest, if this route is not opened, the southwest will really be trapped to death, so he must go in person.

"It's okay, the last war was mainly Dali, and Vientiane is an invader, and the husband is also facing Dali, and he is not facing Vientiane, so it shouldn't be a big problem."

"Vientiane is not a small country, and the exchange of visits between the two places is not like this, not to mention, isn't there still chasing the moon! Then bring Xu Da with you. ”

That being said, the girls were undoubtedly still worried.

Su Mingyue asked, "Husband, do you have to go on this trip?" There is an outlet to the sea in Qinzhou, but it really can't be done, we can break the situation from here. ”

"What the eldest sister said is right!"

The women chimed in.

Lin Bai shook his head, "It's true that Qinzhou has an outlet to the sea, but you have to remember that the premise of commerce is to have military strength as a backing, otherwise it will be sent for nothing, and the current strength of the Southwest Water Division is far from enough." ”

"Let's not talk about all kinds of pirates, we won't be able to break through Zhu Kang's Lotus Island sailors."

"Moreover, in Fujun's planning, it is necessary to open up the trade route of the Western Regions, this trade route has been formed, here there is the Southwest Alliance Army and the Netherworld Iron Cavalry as the backing, and at that end, there are the troops of the Xirong tribe, Dayue and the Jingjue Kingdom, only Vientiane Country."

"Once this section is opened, this route will be extremely safe, can connect the countries of the southwest and the Western Regions together, all parties are commercially interconnected, and the countries on this road have great benefits, there is the ancient Silk Road, and this will be a new Silk Road, along this road, there will inevitably be a lot of rich economic belts, temporarily called him the silk economic belt."

"It's the same with Qinzhou, it's a waterway that leads straight north to Changjin County, Wu Dynasty, Goryeo, etc., and south to Dali, Ryukyu, Siam, and many other countries."

"In the future, goods from the southwest can pass through this waterway and enter these countries and beyond."

"And this is the southwest of the Belt and Road, as long as the Belt and Road is formed, the southwest will inevitably take off, and no one can restrain it."
