Shen Zhuang hurriedly said: "But Master Hou, I don't have so much milk for cattle and sheep in my Ming Dynasty!" And cheese isn't that easy to keep! ”

"Last year, weren't there 150,000 Tatars who attached themselves to my Daming? Are they still building cities? ”

Guo An smiled faintly, "Moreover, the cement straight road from Jingshi to Liangzhou will not be paved this year, and it will definitely be completed next year."

There are Tatars who raise dairy cows and dairy sheep for our maritime trade chamber of commerce, so why worry about not having enough milk? ”

"As for the method of preservation...... It can be made into cakes, or dried and ground into powder, put in glass bottles, sealed and stored, so easy to transport, and easy to preserve. ”

"Cheese nourishes the lungs, benefits the large intestine, is beneficial to the lungs and intestines of the human body, eating cheese can also replenish energy, equivalent to food, comparable to human milk, so that people are not hungry.

Adults don't need to eat as often, but if it is used as food, how many babies can be fed by those newborn children? ”

"Can it be used as food for newborn children?"

Hearing this, Shen Zhuang couldn't help but be stunned.

Immediately, his face was ecstatic, and his eyes were shining.

At all times, the love of licking calves is the most basic emotion of people.

And in Daming, only the young masters of those big families will have nurses. As for the children of the merchants or ordinary people, if the biological mother has no breast milk after birth, those children can only eat some rice soup or coarse grains.

And if you have cheese powder or cheesecake......

Moreover, these things are not too expensive. Even if the price is expensive, as long as it is beneficial to the child's long health, people will buy it desperately.

"Master Hou!"

Shen Zhuang bowed to Guo An with admiration on his face.

Guo An continued: "You can just look at this matter, but the cheese powder is for the children of the Ming Dynasty to eat, it must be clean, and the price should not be too expensive."

In addition, in the future, if the cheese powder technology is mature, it can also be sold overseas, and when it is sold overseas, the price can increase several times, which is also a big business! ”

"Please rest assured, the villain will definitely build a cheese workshop!"

Shen Zhuang hurriedly assured with a firm face, this is not only a big business, if it is scaled up, it will definitely be a business of tens of millions of taels of silver.

"If only you knew how to do it!"

Guo An nodded slightly, and then began to ask about Shen Zhuang's intention.

"You're coming back from Cochin so quickly, but things have already been arranged over there?"

Hearing this, Shen Zhuang finally remembered the purpose of his coming to Dinghai Hou Mansion

"Back to the Hou Ye, Jiaozhi has already been arranged, and the gold mines, silver mines, copper mines, and iron mines have already been arranged by the household department to receive them.

The villain only did as you ordered, and bought the entire Emerald Jade Mine in Jiaozhi and became the industry of the Chamber of Commerce.

In addition, the good seeds that were sent were also sold to those Jiaozhi magnates, so that they could arrange for people to sow them. ”

"Those Jiaozhi magnates actively cooperated with the villain's arrangement, and these things were carried out very quickly!

However, for these Jiaozhi magnates, the villain also left them some profits, about less than half of them, and those magnates shared it, and it was not too much ......"

As he spoke, Shen Zhuang couldn't help but look at Guo An with some caution.

"It's okay, it's okay to leave a profit for those powerful people!"

Guo An smiled lightly and said: "When we recruited them this time, we basically took away seventy or eighty percent of their family funds, and now we use them again to make money for our Chamber of Commerce, and we can't let them suffer!" ”

"Hou Ye is wise!"

Shen Zhuang praised it, and said: "But don't worry, Hou Ye, these barbarians, leaving them half of the profits, are already Hou Ye and His Majesty benevolent!" ”

"These profit things, as long as you have a scale in your heart!"

After using Shen Zhuang for so many years, Guo An is also very relieved about Shen Zhuang.

"If there are people among those Jiaozhi magnates who have different intentions and need to use the army, there is no need to hesitate, there is no need for my Ming people to die in Jiaozhi in vain!"

"Don't worry, the villain will be careful!"

Shen Zhuang assured again, but his heart was full of indifference.

There is the Ming Naval Division You Ge outside, and the Ming army is stationed inside.

Now, when those Jiaozhi people saw the Ming army, their legs were trembling, how could they have different hearts?

After staying with those Jiaozhi magnates for so long, those Jiaozhi magnates should have stammered several times, Shen Zhuang thought that he still knew the thoughts of those Jiaozhi magnates very clearly.

Saying that, thinking of something again, Shen Zhuang hurriedly said: "Master Hou, the villain came back this time and brought back several boats of cuisheng jade, all of which are exquisite.

The villain also picked out some and prepared to send some to Hou Ye and several princes and His Majesty, I don't know what Hou Ye thinks? ”

"Oh?"

Guo An's eyes lit up, and he became a little interested.

"These are all your own belongings, send some, Your Majesty shouldn't mind!"

Shen Zhuang's face was overjoyed, and he hurriedly said: "In this way, the villain will let the boxes of jadeite selected for Hou Ye to bring in for Hou Ye!" ”

"Hmm!"

Guo An nodded slightly.

Shen Zhuang walked out quickly.

Soon, he walked in with a few healthy servants carrying three large boxes and opened them one by one.

“…… Wonderful! ”

Rao is Guo An, who thinks that he has seen all the treasures in the world, and his eyes widen slightly when he looks at the objects in the box.

In a box, there is a huge jade rockery, there are mountain stones, water flow and flowers and plants, the color is bright and gorgeous, delicate and moist, the emerald green and thick sun is even, crystal clear. It is round and full, without a trace of impurities, and the light can directly penetrate the bottom of the stone.

Guo An subconsciously bent down and stroked it with his hand, and couldn't help but be even more surprised.

"Naturally occurring?"

"Master Hou has good eyesight!"

Shen Zhuang praised and introduced, "Master Hou, this piece of jade is slowly cut from the stone, and this is the case.

The villain knew that Hou Ye liked flowers and gardens, so he deliberately left this thing to Hou Ye! ”

"You've got a heart!"

Guo An praised it, this kind of jadeite, in the future generations, is a treasure, and it can't be taken without a dozen small goals.

And now, it was just given to him as a gift.

Compared with this piece of natural jadeite, the next two boxes of jadeite are much more normal.

They are all jadeite of some glass species, all kinds of colors, large and small, more than 20 pieces......

Each piece, placed in the future generations, is worth tens of millions or even hundreds of millions of jadeite.

He seems to be walking in the direction of Heshen, but the only difference is that he doesn't do bad things!

Thinking about it, Guo Anxin couldn't help but feel a little complacent.

"The jade given to me is already so good, Your Majesty, Cao Guogong, and Wei Guogong can't be worse than mine, right?"

Guo An asked Shen Zhuang again.

Shen Zhuang smiled and hurriedly replied: "Master Hou is wise! ”

"It's okay!"

Guo An waved his hand without caring at all, "I'm just reminding you that the jade I am waiting for these people is not too good, but Your Majesty's must be good, and there are more."

After all, His Majesty's harem still has a queen and several concubines and princesses.

Also, in the East Palace of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, you must not leave ...... behind."

Shen Zhuang said with a grateful face, "Thank you Lord Hou for reminding me, the villain remembers it!" ”

Guo An asked again: "Okay, are you ready for the jade you gave to Your Majesty and His Royal Highness the Crown Prince?" ”

"What does Master Hou mean?"

Shen Zhuang was stunned.

"Since it has been sent to me, it must be sent to His Majesty as soon as possible!"

Guo An said that according to his observation, Zhu Laosi's heart and eyes are definitely not too big, although he is not afraid of Zhu Laosi in this matter, but in case Zhu Laosi is uncomfortable, there is no need.

Shen Zhuang hurriedly replied: "Back to the Hou Ye, the villain is ready!" ”

"Very good!"

Guo An nodded with satisfaction, "You go and prepare, let's send it to the palace with you!" ”

"Thank you, Master Hou!"

Shen Zhuang was overjoyed, saluted Guo An, and hurriedly ran out, his face full of excitement.

With Guo An here, he will definitely be able to send him to the palace.

He, a businessman, can actually give gifts to His Majesty and His Royal Highness the Crown Prince!

Since ancient times, which merchant can give gifts to the emperor and the crown prince?

……

In front of the palace gate.

The faces of the guards gradually became surprised.

The Marquis of Dinghai actually took a person who looked like a businessman, and pulled seven carriages, and walked straight towards the palace gate.

Could it be that the carriage is a thing......

Thinking about it, the captain of the Praetorian Guard hurriedly stepped forward and saluted Guo An.

"The last general will see Master Hou! Dare to ask Lord Hou, the boxes on these carriages ......"

Guo An said lightly: "This is an object for His Majesty's filial piety, it is a jade of Jiaozhi, and I am tired of reporting to Your Majesty!" ”

"Master Hou, wait a moment!"

The lieutenant hurriedly saluted, and then quickly ran to the palace.

"The jade of Jiaozhi for us?"

In the Fengtian Palace, Zhu Di couldn't help but be stunned after listening to the captain's words.

Immediately, he said, "Bring it in!" ”

"The last will obey!"
