Since he doesn't even know much about words, Chen Fusheng's range of choices is much less.

Just as he was about to pick out a few of those translations, he suddenly raised his eyebrows and looked at them incredulously.

He clearly sensed the unique fluctuations of the magic weapon.

Compared to the rest, this book looks very exquisite.

The whole book is made of neatly cut and neatly processed, like a translucent film of fine paper, Chen Fusheng stretched out his index finger and touched it, it was extremely flexible, and he didn't know which kind of animal the raw material came from.

There is no trace of binding, but hundreds of separate pages of vellum are joined together by some force.

The theme of the cover is a golden six-pointed star, and below it is a line of unknown text written in a vivid green pigment, presumably the name of the owner.

The six-pointed star and the words of the suspicious name faintly emanated fluctuations of power. And it's not a power in the ordinary sense, it's a power that only the divine consciousness can sense.

Chen Fusheng tried to open the book, and every page was filled with dense words and pictures, just looking at the neat or messy words with their own beauty, as well as the complex patterns, it made people feel that the owner of the book must be very literate.

Of course, Chen Fusheng didn't know the characters on it, but this did not prevent him from scrutinizing those patterns.

"If I'm not mistaken, these patterns should play a role similar to formations, which can affect the vitality between heaven and earth, but it's still a little weird, whether it's the lack of text explanation or because the vitality of the two heavens and the earth is different. ？”

Chen Fusheng closed the book and asked curiously, "Mr. Yuan, do you recognize the words on it?"

Yuan Tianxiang leaned over to take a look, shook his head, and said: "When our business went to sea to Daqi before, we once rescued a merchant who was shipwrecked, and this book seems to have been left by that merchant, but he was too seriously injured, and the medical conditions at sea were limited, and before he arrived in Daqi, that person died, and no one knew the words on this book, so he was thrown here." Why, does Mr. Chen know the origin of that person?"

Chen Fusheng shook his head: "How is it possible, even those big businessmen who are messing around at sea don't know, I have never taken a big step, how can I know, but I see that these pictures seem to involve a lot of knowledge, and the level of civilization behind them is not low. ”

Yuan Tianxiang shook his head and said, "That's Gongzi Chen, you haven't been overseas, especially since we don't have such a big territory like Great Qi, there is only one country, and there are at least dozens of languages in a place of the same size. Countries with different texts, not to mention those new continents that have not yet been explored, the existence of a civilization similar to ours or Daqi, is not surprising at all, but it is a pity that I don't understand what he said, and that person did not leave anything like nautical charts, otherwise, perhaps, our trading firm can still open up a new trade route?"

Seeing that Yuan Tianxiang really didn't know anything about this, Chen Fusheng shrugged his shoulders and raised the book in his hand: "Since this is the case, then I want this book." ”

According to his memory just now, Chen Fusheng casually pointed to dozens of books that he was more interested in, and asked, "After buying so many things, you shouldn't need to let me find someone to transport these things, right?"

"That's natural, leave an address, and we'll promise to send it to you before dark. Yuan Tianxiang smiled with satisfaction, Vientiane Pavilion earned at least four or five thousand taels of silver from Chen Fusheng, so naturally he would not take these small expenses to heart, on the contrary, knowing the other party's residence, he would invisibly have more channels. ”

Chen Fusheng reported the name of the Jiannan Guild Hall, and then sat leisurely on the chair, watching the boy servant pack the goods he had specified.

Since entering the Vientiane Pavilion, Shen Zui, who was silent when he saw Chen Fusheng spending a lot of money, couldn't help but sigh: "It is said that the profit at sea is ten times, it seems that it is not a lie, such a short effort, Fusheng you spent almost 20,000 yuan, right?"

"Sixteen thousand taels," Yuan Tianxiang, who had already learned about Chen Fusheng's expenses from his subordinates, replied for Chen Fusheng: "This son is joking, in our hometown, there is a "Ma Zi" who said a very famous saying: Once there is a proper profit, capital will be bold. If there is 10 percent of the profit, it is guaranteed to be used everywhere; if there is 20 percent of the profit, it will be active; if there is 50 percent of the profit, it will take risks; for the sake of 100 percent of the profit, it will dare to trample on all the laws of the world; and if it has 300 percent of the profit, it will dare to commit any crime, and even risk hanging its head. In other words, the shortest time to trade at sea is more than a year, plus wind, waves, pirates, disease, and even food and water are not guaranteed to be available at all times, and who wants to take such a risk without windfall profits. However, our firm has always supported everyone to participate in the shares, the larger the fleet, the lower the risk, the more lucrative the profits, if the son is interested, it is better to consider it. ”

This sentence was said by looking at Chen Fusheng, after all, Chen Fusheng's wealth has been shown very directly.

"Forget it," Shen Zui, who knew a little about this, shook his head, "The cost of this merchant ship that can support the voyage is at least more than 100,000 taels, even if you sell me, you can't make it up, and besides, this fleet will be a few years away, and with that time, wouldn't it be safer to spend it on other aspects?"

In fact, he didn't say the most important thing, but Chen Fusheng and Yuan Tianxiang also understood that this fleet was all following the big merchants behind the Vientiane Pavilion, and they were all foreigners, who could guarantee that they could be trusted, and when the time came, he rolled up his money, and said that he encountered wind and waves, and the sea was vast, who would he talk to?

Chen Fusheng was slightly moved, judging from what he saw and heard today, it is obvious that there are a lot of good things overseas, and if he can participate in it, it will also be of great benefit.

But right now, there is no need to worry, the most important thing to prepare is next year's Spring Festival, which is directly related to his net worth, and the details of the reputation and operation of Vientiane Pavilion also need to be inquired about.

So he just smiled, didn't say anything, and talked with Yuan Tianxiang for a while, and was about to say goodbye and leave, but saw that he suddenly moved.

"Chen Gongzi spent so much in our Vientiane Pavilion in one day, and he is a rare guest for us. Saying this, Yuan Tianxiang took out a silver coin from his sleeve and handed it to Chen Fusheng, "This is the VIP symbol of our Vientiane Pavilion, with this silver coin, we can have some extra treatment, and I ask Chen Gongzi to accept it." ”
