Chapter 12 Finalizing Cooperation
The ocean, as a member of the crossing public, Zhang Xun naturally will not take it lightly. The oceans are rich in a variety of resources, and the conditions in the South China Sea are second only to those in the East China Sea. However, the East China Sea is the water passage connecting the Wenchang mainland to Penglai Xiandao, and it has been developed to a considerable extent for thousands of years. Qin Shi Huang unified the Wenchang Continent and established the Great Qin Immortal Dynasty, and he would not let go of this hot land, Zhang Xun knew that now was not the time to compete with the Great Qin Immortal Dynasty. The South China Sea is different, only the Floating Moon Palace is there, and it must have been developed in the offshore at most.
Thinking about this, Zhang Xun decided to personally talk to Piaoyue Palace about cooperation in the development of the South China Sea. Of course, this matter still has to be reported to Her Majesty the Empress, not only because of the way of a monarch and a courtier, Zhang Xun must get the full support of Her Majesty the Empress. Don't forget that Lu Jin is a descendant of Lu Gong, who has cultivated a large number of skilled craftsmen over the years, and the in-depth development of the South China Sea is inseparable from these skilled craftsmen. Not to mention anything else, shipbuilding alone is enough for Zhang Xun to play.
After the morning of the second day, Zhang Xun reported the matter in detail to Empress Lu Jin. Lu Jin was having a headache for resources, and when he heard that Zhang Xun had such a good plan, he said to Zhang Xun: "Go for it! After leaving the palace, Zhang Xun didn't go directly to the people of the Drifting Moon Palace, and I don't know how many spies there are in Chang'an City at the moment, so it's better to be secretive.
Don't even think about it, there is nothing more suitable for coming forward than the Heavenly Machine Sect. Liu Piaoxu and Du Xinyue, the three palace masters of Piaoyue Palace, were drinking tea in the courtyard of Dandao Mansion, and someone knocked on the door outside. Du Xinyue got up to open the door, and found that the person who came had already left, and there was only a letter on the ground. Although it was a little strange, Du Xinyue still squatted down and picked up the letter.
Liu Piaoxu took the letter, opened it and saw that it was someone from the Tianji Sect who asked them to talk about things in the health hall at noon today. The Heavenly Machine Sect is now famous all over the world because of the Dan Dao Heroes List, and Liu Piaoxu is naturally willing to go, even if things can't be negotiated in the end, at least it's on the line. What's more, the health hall is the industry of the five beauties of the Sacred Heart, and it is also very necessary to make friends.
Originally, Du Xinyue planned to stay alone in the courtyard for alchemy, but Liu Piaoxu didn't allow it, so she had to follow. When Liu Piaoxu and Du Xinyue came to the health hall, Chen Yuan, the eldest sister of the Sacred Heart Five Beauties, was already waiting at the door. Chen Yuan stepped forward to greet Liu Piaoxu and Du Xinyue, and then led the two to Zhang Xun's box. After Chen Yuan brought the people here, he closed the door and retreated, and went to prepare medicinal food.
Seeing that it was Zhang Xunzai, the willow fluttering was very strange. As for Du Xinyue, this little girl is a Dan idiot, and she doesn't seem to be interested in anything except Dan Dao. Liu Piaoxu knows that it is absolutely impossible to work behind closed doors, not to mention that his baby apprentice is still stuck in the bottleneck. The reason why Liu Piaoxu took Du Xinyue to participate in the Dandao Conference this time was that he also had the idea of using an unfamiliar environment to change Du Xinyue, but so far, it has had little effect. Du Xinyue's biggest problem is that she doesn't like to socialize with people, so whenever she has the opportunity to contact outsiders, Liu Piaoyue will take Du Xinyue to attend.
Zhang Xun said: "Lord Liu, King Du Dan, Zhang Mou invited the two of you to a banquet today, because I want to talk about cooperation with Piaoyue Palace. The reason why I asked someone from Tianji Sect to invite me was because at this time, Zhang was too sensitive to go to the Dandao Mansion to visit, so I had to make this decision, and I asked the two of you to forgive me. Liu Piaoxu asked: "Cooperate with my Floating Moon Palace, I don't know if Brother Zhang is representing himself or the Great Jin Immortal Dynasty?" Zhang Xun said: "Of course, on behalf of the Great Jin Immortal Dynasty and the Floating Moon Palace to discuss the joint development of the South China Sea." The South China Sea is a cornucopia! It contains all kinds of rare resources, and your palace currently does not have the strength to develop the depths of the South China Sea on its own, and the most important thing in the Great Jin Immortal Dynasty is craftsmen. Therefore, Zhang believes that the cooperation between the two sides is the best. ”
After listening to what Zhang Xun said, Liu Piaoxu couldn't help but sigh in his heart: "This Zhang Xun is really not simple! Piaoyue Palace has been based on the South China Sea for hundreds of years, and it has only been nearly 20 years since it realized that the South China Sea is a cornucopia. And Zhang Xun has never been to the South China Sea, but he can have this opinion. "Surprise is surprise, cooperation still has to be discussed. So Liu Piaoxu asked: "I don't know how Brother Zhang knows that the South China Sea is a cornucopia? Zhang Xun also knew that it was too puzzling why he would think like this, so he had to find a reason that could be accepted by the other party to explain.
Zhang Xun said with a smile: "In yesterday's alchemy competition, although the king of Du Xinyue Dan of your palace only won a sixth place, Xin Lan told me that Du Xinyue has hidden a lot of strength, and if she plays her best, she can at least enter the top three." Cultivating a brilliant Danshi is absolutely inseparable from the consumption of a large amount of medicinal materials, I can't figure it out, where did the Floating Moon Palace, which is located on the coast of the South China Sea, get these many resources, and in the end, I can only speculate that the resources of your palace should come from the South China Sea. ”
If there was such a talent in the Floating Moon Palace, the South China Sea would have been developed long ago. Liu Piaoxu knew that the in-depth development of the South China Sea was indeed as Zhang Xun had just said, and Piaoyue Palace did not have the strength to complete it alone. If no one knew about the situation in the South China Sea before, the development of the South China Sea by the Floating Moon Palace could have been slowly planned, but now it is different. Once a treasure loses its mystery, it cannot be controlled alone.
Both the Great Jin Immortal Dynasty and the Floating Moon Palace have cooperation intentions, and the next step is to talk about the distribution of interests. Zhang Xun and Liu Piaoxu are both understanding people, but they completed the negotiation in an hour. The two sides agreed to jointly develop the South China Sea, and the security was taken care of by the Floating Moon Palace, while the craftsmen, ships, etc. were provided by the Great Jin Immortal Dynasty. The proceeds of the Floating Moon Palace accounted for sixty percent, and the Great Jin Immortal Dynasty accounted for forty percent. It seems that the Great Jin Immortal Dynasty has suffered a little, but in fact, it is not. Zhang Xun of the South China Sea is very unfamiliar, but his master is very researched, and he also has written relevant books to record it. Therefore, if Zhang Xun went to the South China Sea in person, the final income of the Great Jin Immortal Dynasty would not be less than sixty percent.
After the cooperation was finalized, Zhang Xun left the health hall and went to the other courtyard of the Seeking Dao Sect in Chang'an. Wang Han and Qu Lie of the Tianji Sect were here at this time, and Zhang Xunzi was going to see them. What's more, the trip to the South China Sea, if you can have the help of the Heavenly Machine Sect, it will be more convenient. After not seeing each other for many years, Wang Han and Qu Lie were very happy to see Zhang Xun, who was also a teacher and friend, again. The way people get together in temperament is naturally to drink wine and eat meat, and talk about some gains and losses over the years. If you have anything to say, you don't need to use words to form sentences, and you don't need to worry about anything. It was a rare relaxation for the three of them, who were very busy on weekdays.
Hearing that Zhang Xun was going to leave for the South China Sea in a few months, Qu Lie said: "The Heavenly Machine Sect does not have many people in the Southern Regions, and there are even fewer around the South China Sea, so I can only reluctantly pay attention to the news of the Floating Moon Palace. The sea area and the islands really can't be taken into account. Fortunately, Brother Zhang will leave for the South China Sea in a few months, and the personnel needed this time do not need to be many, but the most expensive thing is to be fine. I'll take a few core disciples on a trip. ”
In fact, Wang Han also had such a plan, but after all, he was the head of the first sect of the Heavenly Machine Sect, and he also had to manage the affairs of the sect, so it was really inconvenient to go to the South China Sea. So Wang Han didn't speak just now, and Qu Lie brought it up, so it would be the best.
After Zhang Xun returned to the mansion, he remembered that Liu Piaoxu of Piaoyue Palace also mentioned one thing to her, that is, Du Xinyue's personality was too homely, and it could even be said to be withdrawn. Zhang Xun smiled, this problem is not difficult to solve. The best way to change a girl's lifestyle is to get her in a relationship. It just so happened that Peng Xiaofei and Long Huixiang were having a headache about their son Peng Longsheng's marriage, Peng Longsheng was not young, and it was time to start a family. The more Zhang Xun thought about it, the more he felt that Peng Longsheng and Du Xinyue were suitable to be together. First of all, Peng Du and Du are both young and promising Danshi leaders, with common interests and even careers.
In the next week, Du Xinyue will be in the Sacred Heart Pill Courtyard to communicate, just in time to operate this matter. Zhang Xun mentioned it to Xin Lan, and Xin Lan also thought it was good, and said that she would make relevant arrangements. Fortunately, Xin Lan is the dean of the Sacred Heart Pill Academy, and in the Sacred Heart Pill Academy, the matter is handled by her and the name is more justified, and Zhang Xun will no longer care.
Zhang Xun went to the palace of King Dingshan the next day and visited Luding Mountain. Lu Dingshan was bored, and when he saw Zhang Xun visiting, he asked with a smile: "Brother Zhang, what kind of wind blew you into this palace?" Zhang Xun said: "Lord, I think you must also know that Your Majesty is worried about the resources needed for the development of the Immortal Dynasty. Zhang Xun, as the prime minister of this dynasty, is always thinking about how to solve problems for His Majesty. No, the performance of the Floating Moon Palace at the just-concluded Dan Dao Competition made me realize that the South China Sea may be a cornucopia of His Majesty's desperate and fruitless belief. Yesterday, I had already negotiated with the people of the Floating Moon Palace to jointly develop the South China Sea. Is the prince interested in going to the South China Sea in the next year? The scenery there is good!" Although Lu Dingshan is a little lazy, he is definitely not a fool. He understood that Zhang Xun was just not easy to say, in fact, he had to go to the South China Sea. Because Lu Jin, the empress of the Great Jin Dynasty, only has one younger brother, and the two children of the imperial sister are young, the older Princess Jiayi is only ten years old, just a child. And like
The important matter of the Immortal Dynasty such as developing the South China Sea and obtaining resources cannot be justified without the presiding over of the royal family, even if there is no Great Jin Immortal Dynasty without Zhang Xun.
Lu Dingshan gladly accepted Zhang Xun's invitation, anyway, he should go on a tour of the mountains and rivers. Luding Mountain in Chang'an City has been staying for too long, and it is good to go to the South China Sea. Piaoyue Palace is a sect composed entirely of female cultivators, maybe you can ask for a few more concubines when you go to the South China Sea, why not do it!
A week later, Liu Piaoxu and Du Xinyue of the Floating Moon Palace completed their mission to Chang'an and were about to leave to return to the Floating Moon Palace. But when they came, there were two people, and when they returned, there was one more Peng Longsheng. Hehe, yesterday Peng Longsheng took Du Xinyue to Peng Mansion to meet his parents, Peng Xiaofei and Long Huixiang were smiling from ear to ear!
