Transmigrated into the book to become the villain prince, the son of the plane to destroy

As the so-called curiosity is human nature, the people and merchants in Panyu City seem to have heard some rumors, and they flocked to the port one after another. They all stretched their necks and looked forward, wondering what the merchant ships returning from Nanyang brought. rarities.

Seeing that the servants of the Shibo Department have brought several large scales, one by one, they are standing at the pier waiting for orders. Even the Shibo envoy, Mr. Yang, has set up a table and prepared pens, ink, paper and inkstone. It seems that he will end up personally as a temporary Scribe.

Everything was ready, and when Yang Sheng gave an order, Lu Fei didn't dare to neglect, and hurriedly called his fellows to unload the cargo on the ship.

As soon as the first ship was unloaded, Yang Sheng felt a burst of disappointment in his heart. Since it was a piece of round wood, although he could tell at a glance that the wood was decades or even hundreds of years old. , The wood is strong, and they are all high-quality building materials. They can be sold for a good price, but thinking of them traveling thousands of miles to a foreign country to transport back these not very valuable wood, I still feel deeply worthless.

But even though he thought so in his heart, he didn't show it. He just ordered the guards to weigh the wood one by one and report it to him for record.

However, the ships in the back unloaded irregular pieces of wood, and the guards felt a little dumbfounded, why the wood in the back was getting worse and worse.

But Yang Sheng frowned, sniffed his nose hard, and smelled a strange fragrance. When he traveled all over the country through Tao's house, he could smell the fragrance of agarwood, and it is a high-quality agarwood, which can be sold for at least a few taels of silver. a catty.

It seems that Nanyang still has some good things. If they are sold to the Central Plains, they can make a lot of money.

But as more and more goods got off the ship, Yang Sheng felt that he still lacked experience and felt that it was too early.

These goods include huge rhino horns and ivory, as well as piles of spices...all of which are scarce in the Central Plains, and can be sold for a good price.

But in Xingang, Panyu, these valuable and rare things are piled up like a mountain, which makes Yang Sheng feel a little greedy.

The common people and merchants who were watching at the harbor were also in a state of excitement, feeling that this was about to be released. These merchants went out to sea, and it felt like they had brought back mountains of gold and silver.

Especially for those merchants, they can't wait to get a few ships now, and the next trip to Nanyang to transport a few ships of special products back for sale, it is better than guarding these half-dead shops in Jiaozhou.

Up to the Shibo Envoy Yang Sheng and the Shibo Department's servants, down to the onlookers and merchants, they all cast their envious eyes on Lu Fei, wondering how much money Lu Fei earned during this trip.

In Lu Fei's heart, he wanted to cry, but because Funan people didn't pay attention to martial arts and raised prices wantonly, he lost a full 10,000+ taels of silver this trip, and he just waited for the Tao family to come and take all the orders to make up for his loss, but Unexpectedly, the members of the Tao family never showed up, and he suddenly became uneasy.

Although King Qi once promised him that no matter what price they bought back these Nanyang specialties, the Tao family would accept them all, but as long as he didn't see the money from the Tao family for a day, he couldn't let it go.

Fortunately, his worries were unfounded. Xiao Jie and Tao Han soon appeared at the port, accompanied by stewards from various workshops of the Tao family. These stewards each sent someone to count the goods they needed, and settled with Lu Fei face to face. paid for the goods.

It's just that the stewards felt a bit pained when the payment was made, because the price reported by Lu Fei was almost the same as the selling price in the Central Plains. If the Tao family purchased these goods at this price, they would have to pay a lot of money.

But seeing that King Qi and the young lady looked calm and composed, as if they didn't care, these stewards didn't have much to say.

The stewards hired people to transport the goods on the pier back to their own factories and workshops immediately. After all, the guys they hired had been idle for long enough, and it was time for them to move.

Yang Sheng also had a happy expression on his face, because in the end, their Shibo Department collected a total of almost 3 taels of silver in tariffs, which can be said to have gotten off to a good start.

You must know that the trading order of Jiaozhou responsible for market transactions, the commercial tax collected in a year is only two or three thousand taels of silver, which is less than a fraction of his this time.

Yang Sheng just wanted to go forward to report the good news to Xiao Jie, but he heard the guards and onlookers on the side shouting in the direction of the ocean.

Yang Sheng couldn't help turning his head to look, and was instantly dumbfounded.

Another mighty fleet appeared on the sea, heading towards the port, and the flag was still Daning's caravan.

A wry smile appeared on the corner of Yang Sheng's mouth, it seemed that he was busy again today.

However, Xiao Jie couldn't help showing a knowing smile. As long as the maritime trade rises, it feels that the day of the rise of the Pearl River Delta is not far away.

In fact, he is so eager to expand the Panyu New Port, the main purpose is to vigorously develop maritime trade and open up the Maritime Silk Road as soon as possible.

In the original book, Xiao Huang was formally established as the prince by his father because of his meritorious service in pacifying the Western Regions, restoring the Silk Road and rebuilding the Anxi Metropolitan Protectorate.

Xiao Jie knew that his father was an ambitious emperor, and he could even be said to be a great success. He followed the example of Emperor Wu of Qin all his life, and always thought about opening up the territory for Daning, rebuilding the six capitals and restoring the Qin Dynasty. The realm of the heyday.

No matter whether it is himself or Xiao Huang, as long as anyone can help him fulfill this long-cherished wish, the balance in his heart will be tilted towards him, because in his opinion, only his best son is qualified to inherit the land of Daning.

Although he now has the upper hand by helping his father destroy the Linyi Kingdom, restore the Jiuzhen County and Rinan County in the Qin Dynasty, and rebuild the Annan Metropolitan Protectorate, the eyeliner in Luoyang sent him news that Xiao Huang has already taken his own life. Please let it out and be appointed as the deputy governor of Liangzhou.Even the eyeliner told him that Xiao Huang took his pregnant wife, the only baby daughter of Wang Cheng, governor of Liangzhou, to the post.

Xiao Jie guessed Xiao Huang's thoughts all of a sudden, knowing that he must plan to use Wang Cheng and Liangzhou's soldiers and horses to sweep the countries in the Western Regions, restore Daning's statistics on the Western Regions, re-open the Silk Road, and rebuild the capital of Anxi. government.

In Xiao Ji's mind, the importance of the Western Regions to Daning is by no means comparable to that of Nanyang. One of the most important reasons is that re-opening the Silk Road will not only allow Daning to communicate with other countries, increase the court's tax revenue, but also attract all nations to come. Dynasty, greatly satisfying the great joy of the father.

Sitting in Jiaozhou, he was doomed to sweep all the countries in the Western Regions before Xiao Huang. It can be said that Xiao Huang had reserved this great feat of pacifying the Western Regions, so it was impossible for him to snatch it away.

But if he builds the Maritime Silk Road first before Xiao Huang pacifies the Western Regions, Xiao Huang's contribution to pacify the Western Regions will be greatly reduced, and he will lose a lot of weight in his father's heart.

As the saying goes, if you can't take away something, find a way to weaken it!
