Rebirth: I’m Lv Bu

After a while, Xiao Er brought up a sumptuous wine and food, and then stepped back after speaking slowly. At this time, Xiao Wen'er had arrived in her mother's arms, and Cao Ying carefully selected the fish for her. The most feared thing for the little guy to eat fish is to be slapped by the fishbone, so the fishbone must be removed.

Ellen eats vegetables while drinking. At this time, the voice of the guests at the next table came to the ears. The fat middle-aged man said triumphantly: "I made a profit of 10,000 yuan from a trip to Jingnan last month, which is worth the sum of the profits I made in the past year!" All of them looked like businessmen, and when they heard his words, they all showed awe. The thin middle-aged man snorted unconvincedly, and said in an unconvinced manner: "Just blow it! Earn ten thousand yuan a month! How can there be such a good thing? Besides, the many barbarians in Jingnan, how much money can they have? Let you earn!"

The middle-aged man smiled and said, "Don't really believe it! I am still earning less! Miss Bu like this Huainan Tower, earning more than mine! You are right, Jing Nan It is indeed not rich, but because of this, we can exchange a large amount of precious medicinal materials and various precious wood materials from there at a price far lower than that of the Central Plains. These things are transferred to Xiangyang, and the profit can be tripled. And if it is shipped to us or to places like Shouchun, Luoyang, the profit has increased by more than five times! It’s not a big deal to earn 10,000 yuan a month!” Everyone nodded and felt that What he said makes sense.

Cao Ying has selected 10,000 fish for Xiao Wen'er, and Xiao Wen'er ate it happily. Cao Ying glanced at the people at the next table and said to Ai Lang, "These business people are really smart!" Ai Lang laughed and said, "It's not how smart they are, but ordinary people have been harmed by Confucianism and Taoism. It’s difficult to think about things in terms of interests."

Cao Ying smiled and said, "Sage Kong's doctrine has become a scourge here!" Ai Lang raised his eyebrows, and said, "That's really a scourge! In fact, the reason why mankind creates a prosperous society is in the final analysis. It is in the pursuit of interest. The development of the entire human society is based on this interest. This is the driving force of human development. Without this driving force, we are still living in caves and drinking blood! But Confucianism and Taoism have to To say that "gentlemen do not speak for benefits", to treat benefits as scourges and slander! This practice is fundamentally contrary to the laws of nature! Now the Confucianism and Taoism are stronger, and in the future it will develop to "destroying the human desire to save the heavens", then It's really a joke! Do you teach everyone to drink wind and cultivate immortality? Destroy human desires! It's simply outrageous! It's no wonder that many people do not regard Confucianism as a political theory, but as a religious concept and call it Confucianism! This is really true That's right!"

Cao Ying chuckled, and gave Ai Lang a white look, and said, "I've never heard of this little girl!"

Ai Lang realized that he had accidentally revealed his secret secret, and he smiled.

At this time, the voice of the table of businessmen discussing came again. This time it was the simple but smart middle-aged man who said to the fat middle-aged man: "Brother Zhao, since this business is so easy to do! It is better for us all to unite and do this business together. It's much more profitable than fighting alone!" Everyone showed longing expressions. The fat middle-aged man smiled and said, "I have this intention to invite you all to drink today! Now that Brother Chen has proposed it, I will ask everyone, do you want to unite with me to do this business?" Expressed willingness. The fat middle-aged man immediately slapped the wine table and exclaimed: "Okay! That's it!" Then he picked up the wine glass and said: "Everyone, let's drink this glass together, and we will share the wealth from now on!" They picked up their wine glasses and worked with him.

The fat middle-aged man put down his wine glass, sighed, and said, "Although this business is profitable, it is still far behind the other way!" Everyone asked quickly. The fat middle-aged humanity said: "These years, the most profitable people are actually the sea merchants. I heard that a silk was transported from the sea to the Great Qin Empire in the extreme west, and it could be sold at a sky-high price of ten catties of gold...." The crowd suddenly became agitated. . The skinny middle-aged man cried out in disbelief: "A piece of silk sells for a sky-high price of ten catties of gold. How is this possible?!" The fat middle-aged man said, "A friend of mine worked under a large merchant. Some time ago They came back. This was what he told me. Naturally, I couldn't be wrong. Hearing what he said, a nobleman in the capital of the Great Qin Empire attended a noble banquet wearing silk clothes, and it caused a sensation!"

Everyone talked a lot, they all looked like they were ready to move. The rather wise middle-aged man frowned and said, "We don't need to think about this for now. We don't have that strength at all." Everyone felt that what he said was reasonable, and they couldn't help getting frustrated. The plump middle-aged man nodded and said, "It is true. Actually, the silk sold to the West of the Great Qin Empire is mainly from the Guanzhong area and trafficked through the Silk Road! This kind of benefit, we don’t need to think about it for the time being. Up!"

After hearing these businessmen’s remarks, Ellen couldn’t help but aroused his thoughts. He knew that the so-called Great Qin Empire was actually the Roman Empire. He felt that since silk and other things were so profitable in the Roman Empire, why didn’t he rely on the navy in his hands? Advantages of mass trafficking of silk and other things in the past? At this point, I couldn't help but get excited, thinking that this is a good way to get wealth.

The Roman Empire of this era has just gone through the so-called age of the five sage emperors. The overall strength is in its heyday. Because of the accumulation of a large amount of wealth in the country, luxury has become a trend. Everyone does not hesitate to decorate themselves with a lot of money. Therefore, silk is a rare luxury. It was so popular in the Roman Empire. However, this situation is also a common problem of mankind. Prolonged periods of peace and prosperity will inevitably breed extravagance, which seems to be no exception anywhere in the world.

After lunch, Ailang returned home with his wife and children. Immediately, Ai Lang summoned Guo Jia and Zhuge Mengxue, and said, "Today, I heard something outside. It was about Rome, no, about the Great Qin Empire. It was said that, uh, a piece of silk was transported to the Great Qin Empire here. It can be sold at a sky-high price of ten catties of gold!..."

Guo Jiadao: "This matter has also been heard by my subordinates. But our side can only be trafficked by sea and land. The main profit previously fell in the hands of Prime Minister Cao, but now it should be in Liu Bei's hands."

Ailang rushed: "I wonder if we can use the advantage of our navy to organize a fleet to traffic silk and other things to the west, or buy their special products for domestic sales. This should be a huge gain. Right?" Guo Jia and Zhuge Mengxue couldn't help looking at each other, and Zhuge Mengxue thought: "We have never thought about this, but this seems to be a way to obtain huge benefits. There are already maritime trades between the Great Qin Empire and us. Among the Han empires, there is no need to worry about not finding a way to the Daqin Empire. There is only one point. Now that the navy is shouldering the heavy task of guarding the east coast and calming the south in the future, is it appropriate for them to do this now?"

Guo Jiadao: "Why don't it be like this. Don't use the water army, it may be more appropriate to organize civil forces to carry out this kind of trade activities with the official leadership." Zhuge Mengxue nodded and said: "Mr. Guo Jia is right. Let the government take the lead in doing this with civilian forces! In this way, not only can the husband’s vision be fulfilled, but it will not cause our military and even local government to shift away from the main things that should be concentrated!"

Ailang nodded and said: "Okay! That's it!" After a pause, he said to the two of them: "You immediately draft an announcement about the relevant content and show it to me, and then distribute it to various places to gather merchants who have this intention! Haha, in this way, we don't have to use our own support at all, we can fully utilize the resources of the merchants to act, and we just collect taxes from it!"

Soon after, the announcement issued by the Prince Qin's Mansion spread throughout the states and counties under Ailang, and businessmen cheered and signed up for it. Its popularity far surpassed Ellen's previous imagination. As a result, Ailang had to introduce screening measures to select those merchants with good local reputation and certain operating advantages to join the event. At the same time, the sea ships along the coast are actively being transferred, and these are basically from the private sector. Due to the strong coordination of all parties, the caravan that was planned to start next year should be able to start this fall.

After lunch that day, Ai Lang was chatting with Zhuge Mengxue about business matters in the study. Huang Wudie suddenly came to report, "Big Brother, Zhen Mi's aunt, Mrs. Xiao, is begging to see you outside the door." Ai Lang felt a little strange, and said: "This Mrs. Xiao hasn't been here for a long time, why did he come suddenly today?" Then he said to Huang Wudie: "Bring her here." Huang Wudie promised and walked away quickly. After a while, he led a very beautiful Xiao who was dressed in palace costumes with heavy makeup and still very beautiful and very moving into the study.

Xiao Clan saw Ai Lang, and immediately bowed, "Men's wife, see King Qin!"

Ai Lang smiled and said, "You don't have to be polite, you don't need to be polite!" The Xiao clan straightened up to look at Ai Lang, and smiled: "The local women don’t go to the Three Treasures Hall for everything. They came to visit King Qin today because there is something they want to request King Qin." Ai Lang said with a smile: "If you have anything to say, just say it. We are a family, you don't have to be polite!" "Thank you, King Qin. That's it. The local woman heard about King Qin summoning merchants to prepare for the Great Qin Empire. This is also very interested, so I came here to ask King Qin to open a convenient door for the women!" Ai Lang was a little surprised and smiled and asked, "Why are you also interested in this matter?"
