Fenglin Tianxia – Queen with a Thousand Pets

Were you drunk last night? Yan San raised his head and asked Ling Qingyu with a smile as he walked out of the house, rubbing his neck.

Ah? What did I do again? Ling Qingyu was stunned and asked. No way, Yan San is seriously ill, I won't attack him again, right?

Shadow Thirteen and Shadow Nine, who were sitting in the yard eating lunch, stood up silently and prepared to carry the hot food on the stove.

You two, stop! Ling Qingyu's sharp eyes saw the abnormal expressions on the two people's faces at a glance, and shouted.

Ying Jiu, come here! Ling Qingyu pointed at Ying Jiu.

Ying Jiu was a little hesitant, but he still lowered his head and moved in front of her, saying, Master, no matter how hard you punish Ying Jiu, he will recognize her.

Well? Ling Qingyu couldn't help but wonder: What did you do that I want to punish you for?

Ying Shisan and Yan Qi both winked at him desperately, You pig head! If I didn’t see her, I wouldn’t remember it at all! But Ying Jiu lowered his head and didn't even see a wink.

So Ying Jiu said honestly: The master asked us to suppress Master Qi last night. I ran away and didn't obey. Please be punished by the master.

Ling Qingyu suddenly went numb, and there was only one sentence in his head, the boss asked us to suppress the seventh master last night... The boss asked us to suppress the seventh master last night... The boss asked us to suppress the seventh master last night...

Yan San raised his eyebrows and looked at the other one of us, Ying Shisan, and the suppressed Yan Qi with a smile.

Third Master, this is either what you think, or the master wanted to act in a script yesterday, called The Leader of the Demon Cult of Jianghu and His Deep Love in Sadism, Ying Thirteen decided to decisively sell Yan Qi, saying, That script The plot is that the leader of the Demon Cult was fucked by a young man in black, and by the leader’s guards, and then we ran away.”

The other people in the yard (Yan San Ying, Er Ying and Ten Sum) all looked at Yan Qi.

Then Ying Er said: My boss, the leader of the Demon Cult is not a good person. He is very powerful, and he likes to kill his opponents the most. He will not let men fall in love with him.

Ling Qingyu's face turned red, white, and red again. He coughed a few times and said, Ahem, well, ah, since I don't remember, it means there is no such thing! The demon sect and the immortal sect are not all fiction. Yes!

There really is a leader of the Demon Cult. The current leader of the Demon Cult is called Yaoyue. He has very strong martial arts and very cruel methods. Yan San pointed to the seat next to him and asked Ling Qingyu to sit down, and said, It's best not to interact with him. That guy is tough to deal with.”

Well, we can't compete with those demon sect's eight poles. Let's eat, eat! Ling Qingyu said with a smile.

You haven't washed up yet. Yan Qi said calmly.

Ling Qingyu's face turned red again, jumped up, and ran back to the house.

Sum laughed at this moment. Seeing Ying Er's questioning look, he smiled and said, Well, who is the young hero in black? Who is the guard?

Seek death! Sum was beaten by three people at the same time.

The banquet last night lasted very late, so even though it was already afternoon, not many people came out. Most of them were still drunk on the bed, on the floor, or under the unfinished dining table.

Ling Qingyu looked at the miserable situation outside, then turned back and walked to the main hall to look at the goods list and account books.

First, he placed the soft couch where Yan San sat and let him lie down comfortably. Ling Qingyu spread out the map and white paper on the table. While looking at the bill of goods and ledger, he sketched the shape of the map on the white paper.

Australia and Papua are newly developed areas, and the indigenous labor force is not very large. Therefore, although the mines are rich, the output is not too high. However, the progress in the Americas is very good. Not only is the output of the Podosi Silver Mountain increasing day by day. Improvement, silver mines and gold mines have also been discovered in Peru. Silk, porcelain, lacquerware and other items from the Great Zhou Dynasty have become the best-selling and most expensive items in the Americas. Many ethnic groups come all the way from Mexico to trade, and last time Some of the copper coins brought over there also became the currency there. Ten copper coins were equivalent to one tael of gold, and one copper coin was equivalent to one tael of silver.

There are a lot of spices accumulated in Southeast Asia. Srivijaya's warehouse is already full. A large amount of other pearls and treasures have also been accumulated. In addition, the goods of the Ban people from the Chola and the Red Sea have been purchased. And with the addition of what Ram brought back this time, the goods from the Red Sea and Chola were also somewhat excessive.

The six ships of Fortune, Fortune, Life and Happy Moon were probably delayed in Quanzhou for some time, so they arrived behind the Fengshen. However, it was good this way, as they could avoid the Xie family's attack. But I'm afraid they will arrive in the next few days. That ship There are more than 4,000 people, and we need to consider where to place them. Lingjia Village alone may not be able to accommodate so many people. Should we consider sending them to Australia? There is plenty of wilderness and farmland over there.

When the sun began to set, people got up one after another. Seeing Ling Qingyu drawing a large map on the table in the main hall, they all came over excitedly.

Ram, I have to trouble you to go to Quanzhou this time, Ling Qingyu pointed at the map and said: Not in the name of the Ling family business, but in the name of the Zhuluo merchants. You take two boats, and Sanjayi takes the Two ships went to Quanzhou in the name of two Chola merchants and brought these goods there. When they arrived in Quanzhou, they could ask Ding Budong to find merchants he was familiar with to buy them.

What about the sailors on the ship? Ram asked after looking at the cargo list.

Disperse yourselves, and then get on board with some of the indigenous people here. The captain is not afraid. They won't be seen until you get out of the boat. After you sell your goods, come back quickly and don't stay in Quanzhou. After a pause, Ling Qingyu said: Also, if I ask you if you have seen the Fengshen, just say that you saw corpses and arrowheads at sea. If you want Chen Liang to bring those arrowheads to you, just say that you are afraid that they were attacked, but you don't know the details. , you are from far away Chola.

One more thing, you have to pay attention. When collecting money, you can ask for silver or gold or physical exchange. Copper coins are also acceptable, but you cannot accept silver notes because you Zhu Luo can't use silver notes! Ling Qingyu warned.

Then do they have so much money? These four shipments of goods will cost tens of millions of taels even if they are sold cheaper. Ram asked.

Those who can't afford the money would rather store the goods in the warehouse, otherwise you will be exposed as soon as you receive the banknote. By the way, Fan Ye, the transshipment envoy on Fujian Road, has seen you before, so just tell me that you ran away from me last time. , it’s the payment I deducted from the goods I gave you, you’ll have to pay in cash and in kind.” Ling Qingyu said.

I know! Do you want to bring the cash back? Ram nodded.

No, leave it to Ding Butong. I will get it from him when I go back. Ling Qingyu said.

Mr. Zhu, have you ever been here when you went to Australia? Ling Qingyu pointed at the upper part of the Australian map. When Zhu Weili shook his head, he said: It doesn't matter, if I remember correctly, the gold mine is nearby. , there are also plains and river valleys, which are most suitable for growing wheat. All the new arrivals this time will be handed over to you and taken there to settle down. Oh, some of the iron households can be seen by Mr. Zhou first.

Zhu Weili's eyes lit up and he nodded: Okay!

Su Hexiang, the six ships coming this time will be divided into three into your fleet. This time, in addition to the goods from Da Zhou, you will also bring some goods from Zhuluo and the Red Sea. Then ask Gulu to transport these as soon as possible. After a new mine is opened, we can consider building another port above this. Mr. Zhou, I would like to trouble you to build a few more ships here to supply Styrexiang, plus some defensive and offensive equipment. Styraxiang, your burden will be heavier. !”

No problem, don't worry, the boss will definitely bring you 20 million taels of silver next year! Su Hexiang said with a smile.

If there are too many ships, don't just bring gold and silver, but also match other things. But remember, don't affect the local ecology and the development of their own race. We are trading, not plundering. Ling Qingyu said with a smile.

Understood. Su Hexiang nodded. In fact, according to the current prices of Dazhou silk and porcelain in the Americas, the quantities submitted by Gulu are not enough. It is just because Gulu is relied on for turnover in the Americas, so this part is given to Gulu as profit. At the beginning, Styrax was not big. Understand why the head of the family made such a decision. Now seeing the hundreds of thousands of indigenous miners gathered by Gulu and their passion for looking for minerals everywhere, Su Hexiang completely understood that after new mines are opened, the output in the Americas will increase. It will be much higher. The head of the family is fattening it up before killing it.

I see it's marked here that the spices have been made into fragrant pills and pills. I'll bring some of these to you. You can also take some to Ram to see the reaction on the other side of the Red Sea. Also, the cinchona tree was successfully planted. No? Ling Qingyu looked at Zhu Weili, saw him nodding, and said: Expand the planting area, and bring some seeds and bark with you. Malaria in the tropics is very serious, and that stuff can save lives.

Seeing Fang Nianyuan staring at him, Ling Qingyu smiled and said: Nianyuan, you send those people to the settlement in Australia first, and send a boat to send Lamu off. Don't get close to Guangzhou and take a detour. Lamu is staying in Quanzhou. How long should you stay? Come back as soon as possible. Let’s celebrate the New Year in Lingjia Village. Well, Su Hexiang, don’t leave in a hurry. We’ll leave after the New Year.”

Okay, let's go check the manifest first. Ram picked up Ling Qingyu's paper that was too scrawled to read and said with a smile.

I will also go and make arrangements for the arrival of the people behind me. Zhu Weili stood up and said.

Everyone went to work with their own orders, and all of a sudden, the main hall became empty again.

Ling Qingyu looked back and saw Yan San leaning on the soft couch, looking at him with a smile on his face, so he rushed to him and asked, Why are you looking at me all the time?

Yan San raised his hand to wipe the sweat from her forehead and said, You look good.

Say something nice! Ling Qingyu said with a smile, his eyes flashing.

What do you want me to say? Yan San's smile widened unconsciously and he asked.

Well, Ling Qingyu was thinking about some sweet words, when he heard Ye Shiyi's voice coming from outside the courtyard door: Third Master, can we come in?

Lifting up and putting his mouth close to Ling Qingyu's ear, Yan San whispered: I love you, and this will never change until the sea and stone are broken. Then seeing that Ling Qingyu's ears were indeed turning red, he raised his voice and said: Come in.
