The next morning, the Fengshen docked. When a load of spices was brought down, the whole port was boiling.
Fan Ye even sat in the study of the government office by the pier, mouth shut, watching the busy scene outside the window. I wondered in my heart if there were any notes that I rushed out overnight last night.
When the news reached Xie Tingxuan, Xie Tingxuan who was drinking tea smashed the thousand taels of tea bowls.
After the spices were collected in the official treasury, Fan Ye made a payment of 200,000 taels of silver to Ling Qingyu, and wrote a written receipt. Within one year, he delivered silk, cloth, porcelain and other items worth 300,000 taels of silver, and then sent someone to follow Ling Qingyu to Zhizhou The yamen has gone through the transfer procedures of the official village and the warehouse.
When Fan Ye returned to his backyard happily, as if he was a few years younger, his wife took out the bank note he had just handed to Ling Qingyu this morning.
"This! Go back and back! Ma'am, you are hurting me!" Fan Ye said anxiously. He could squeeze Ling Qingyu, but he didn't dare to accept these bribes.
"Master, what are you talking about!" Yang said with a smile covering her mouth with a handkerchief, "This is when the girl set out to visit my concubine. The concubine saw how pitiful she was as a girl, so she took out her own dowry money." This is a bonus given by others." As he spoke, he took out the receipt and dividend statement written by Ling Qingyu.
"Ma'am, you are kind!" Fan Ye took half of the silver bill and stuffed it into his sleeve, and pushed the rest back to Mrs. Yang, saying: "These are well received. When Master Ling goes to sea again, he can vote for some more. Don't vote too much. Two thousand taels is enough."
Not to mention over-fulfilling the mission entrusted by the Holy Majesty, he could still get 200,000 taels of silver with peace of mind, and let Zhizhou owe him a favor. Fan Ye felt that he was in a really happy mood, so he stayed in Yang's room for the next month.
There are as many as one hundred warehouses at the south gate, which can hold hundreds of thousands of stones of grain and goods, and the warehouses are newly built and have never been used.
The little official opened the seal and smiled at Ling Qingyu: "The head of the house, this land is a good place. It would cost tens of thousands of taels of silver to build this."
Moreover, this is a government construction, even if some people have evil intentions, they still have to worry about it. Ling Qingyu secretly thought, and these warehouses are connected together, so it is easy to manage.
"Tsk tsk tsk," Ding Budong sighed while leaning on his crutches. Although there was no Blood Swallow King and Blood Tonglan, Shi Fang found better medicinal materials, which allowed him to stand up again. With so many warehouses, even if Lin Da was in charge, he couldn't buy them.
"Uncle Ding, this is the land deed of the farm. Discuss with Uncle Wu how to divide it. Please ask Uncle Ding to take care of this warehouse." Ling Qingyu said as he handed over the deed to Ding Budong.
"I don't want to say anything more. You can rest assured that you will never be in trouble here." Ding Budong took Tian Qi and said.
Ling Qingyu smiled slightly, knowing that Ding Budong was showing his loyalty, and asked Ding Dong to accompany Ding Budong to continue looking at the warehouse, Ling Qingyu got into the carriage, Zheng Xi whipped his whip, and headed into the city.
"Yan San, are Gu Sui and the others leaving?" Leaning against the wall of the car, Ling Qingyu asked Yan San who was resting in the car with his eyes closed.
"Yeah," Yan San snorted.
"That's it." After thinking for a while, Ling Qingyu called out the car window: "Zheng Xi, let's go to Zuixianlou."
"If you send the goods to Hangzhou, you will earn more." Yan San said with his eyes closed.
"The price in Bianjing is higher, we only earn what we can," Ling Qingyu said.
Zuixianlou is the largest inn and restaurant in Quanzhou. At this time, merchants from all over the world gathered. The sea ships had not arrived for so long, and many goods were in short supply. When the Fengshen arrived, the merchants were very excited. Later, I learned that 90% of the spices on the ship had been confiscated by the government, and now there were only 10% of the spices. I didn't realize that the red-eyed scramble had tripled the price. But Ling Qingyu never let go.
The carriage arrived at Zuixian Tower, and as soon as Ling Qingyu got out of the carriage, the guard at the door came in to report, and then people rushed out from all corners to talk to her.
With a cold face, Yan San isolated people three steps away, and protected Ling Qingyu to the innermost private room on the second floor.
Seeing Ling Qingyu enter the elegant room, everyone sighed and retreated. Anyone could rob someone, but no one dared to go to Xiao's house in Bianliang to rob someone.
This elegant room labeled Bamboo occupies half of the corner area on the second floor, and the inside is divided into two halves by a screen. The outside is magnificently furnished, but the inside is extremely elegant.
At this time, a middle-aged man sat at the table outside, with a long beard and a kind face. But Ling Qingyu knew that this was an old fox who couldn't be more foxy!
"No price, 200,000 taels, 60% of the remaining spices will be given to you, plus 500,000 taels of treasures and 100,000 taels of medicinal materials." Ling Qingyu sat opposite him and said directly.
"Rude!" said a crisp voice in the middle, and then said: "Vulgar, ignorant, idiot."
"Cough, cough, cough," the middle-aged man hurriedly coughed a few times, and said with a smile, "Don't be surprised by Master Ling, the child is nothing."
But when the curtain in the inner room was lifted, a young man in brocade came out, wearing a long gown made of flowing cloud satin, with a white jade belt tied around his waist, and a small white jade cloud crown on his head. , with red lips and white teeth, romantic eyebrows and eyes, at a young age, he already looks like a disaster for the country and the people.
"Uncle Rong promised you 500,000 taels to take all your spices, but you didn't give me all the spices. You just wanted to use the rest to make friends with those businessmen. You are a woman, and you speak so rudely when you come out to the public," glanced sideways at Ling Qingyu's sitting posture , the young master snorted, and continued: "Whether you sit or not, and what you wear is neither fish nor fowl, hum!"
"Young master." Xiao Rong shouted helplessly, "You can't speak so directly."
"If shopkeeper Xiao agrees, then you can pick up the goods in the afternoon. If you disagree, please tell me clearly, I don't want to waste time." Ling Qingyu ignored the **** directly and stared at Xiao Rong.
"Okay, deal." Xiao Rong said in front of the young master who was about to jump.
Ling Qingyu immediately got up and left without giving the young master a chance to speak.
"Uncle Rong!" Xiao Se stomped his feet and shouted.
"Hehe, young master, we don't have the same knowledge as that vulgar man. Look, shall we go there tomorrow?" Xiao Rong said with a smile. The price of spices in Bianliang has increased tenfold, and it is the time when the price is the best. If Fan Ye's spices are delivered to Beijing, the price will definitely plummet. This is the time to seize the opportunity, and the price of those precious medicinal materials is also lower than usual. Such a good deal, it is a fool not to do it.
After walking through several large merchants, and basically finalizing the price and quantity of the remaining spices, Ling Qingyu and Yan San walked out of Zuixianlou, got into the carriage, and asked, "Then who is the ****?"
"****?" Yan San was stunned for a moment, and then said: "You mean the young master of the Xiao family? That's the grandson of the Xiao family's family, and his mother is the princess, a real noble child."
"Little kid!" Ling Qingyu said bitterly, "Eleven is much cuter."
After the goods were delivered in the afternoon, there were only wood and medicinal materials left on the Fengshen, and most of the treasures. Of course, this does not include the contents of the dark cabin.
Ling Qingyu called Gu Sui to the captain's cabin, and handed Gu Sui a silver note of 500,000 taels.
Gu Sui didn't answer, but just looked at her.
"Hey," Ling Qingyu sighed, and said: "There is no permanent banquet in the world. You have something to do. Let's have a party with friends. I have nothing to help you. The gold brought here this time is 20 Ten thousand taels, you take one hundred thousand taels away, and this cash, I can only give you so much now."
"The gold belongs to you." Gu Sui sat on the chair, rubbed his nose and said, "This time, the goods on the ship, the government's goods are removed, and you can sell up to a million taels of silver, and most of them are yours. Even if you give 20% to the sailors according to what you said, we will only get 1/3, which is only 70,000 to 80,000 taels, which is not worth so much."
"Eh?" Ling Qingyu thought to himself that you have figured it out clearly, I don't just have a million taels of goods, there are so many timbers that have not been sold. And treasures and whatnot. Seeing Gu Sui's inquisitive eyes, he said unconsciously, "You think too much, I know you are going to do big things, and we can be counted as sharing joys and sorrows, life and death together, and I can't help you with what you're going to do." Please help, only these silver taels should be useful to you. My money, how I want to use it, no one will have an opinion. If you really want me to ask for something, then when you accomplish something, then, then ," After thinking for a long time, she didn't think of what she needed him to do. In fact, what she thought was, no matter what you do, just don't implicate me.
"So," Gu Sui smiled, and put a blood lotus flower carved from amber in Ling Qingyu's hand, and said, "If you want anything in the future, bring this to me, and I will promise you no matter what."
"Once?" Ling Qingyu asked.
"Three times." Gu Sui smiled, then took the bank note, walked to the door, and turned back, "I'll take the 150,000 taels of gold."
It's too dark! ! ! ! This is robbery! ! !
Seeing Gu Sui and the others' boat disappear into the night, Ling Qingyu still felt heartache.
In order to comfort his wounded heart, Ling Qingyu took Yan San and Zheng Xi ashore, and returned to his small courtyard. In the courtyard, Lu Yao lit a lamp and cooked a table full of dishes. He and Ye Shiyi were waiting for them.
Holding Ye Shiyi in his arms and rubbing it, Ling Qingyu began to feel the breath and let out.
"You've all come down, will there be no problem with the boat?" Lu Yao asked while setting up the bowls and chopsticks after glancing at Yan San.
"It's okay, Shen Zhan and the others are guarding the ship." Rubbing Ye Shishi's red cheeks, Ling Qingyu said. Most of the sailors rescued on Fengshen Island were lonely fishermen from Haikou, who followed the boats in Haikou to the sea. In the catastrophe, they escaped by relying on excellent water skills, but they were caught by pirates to do coolies. After being rescued, he vowed to follow Ling Qingyu gratefully, and signed a death contract, which is equivalent to a slave. The Fengshen ship docked in Quanzhou, Ding Dong and the others naturally went home first, Shi Fang also went to visit friends, and Cai Jingfang also went home to buy fields with the one thousand taels of silver note from Ling Qingyu. Now that Gu Sui and the others are gone, only Shen Zhan and his crew are left on board.
"Don't be suspicious of people, don't be suspicious of people." Looking at the disapproval in the eyes of the three, Ling Qingyu laughed and said: "We will expand in the future, we must always give trust, and my sixth sense tells me that Shen Zhan is a good seed."
That's right, you dare to use refugees and prisoners, but you dare not use anyone else. Zheng Xi groaned and rubbed his sore shoulders, he was really exhausted these days.
After eating, drinking and eating, Ling Qingyu took a cup of tea, leaned back on the chair comfortably, and said, "After a few days of rest, let's go to Hangzhou."
"Back to Wu County?" Zheng Xi asked after pausing his hand.
"Well, but before I go back, I want to buy two shops in Hangzhou, open a spice shop and a medicine shop, and if possible, I'd better open a gold shop." Ling Qingyu drew circles on the teacup and said slowly: "It's a pity that there are not enough people. Let's not rush the goods this time, and sell them slowly. Although Master Fan is willing to provide goods here, we have to buy some by ourselves. We need to plan slowly."
Quanzhou is located by the sea, the summer night is still a bit cool, the breeze is gentle, looking at the sky full of stars, Ling Qingyu has a lot of thoughts in his heart, not enough, the strength is far from enough, Ding Budong delivered here from Mrs. The young master Lin Guoxiang has already won the prize of a scholar, Lin Zixu is engaged to a side branch of the Murong family, a prominent family in Suzhou Prefecture, and the Wu family's Saburo, this year Chunwei won the Tanhua, and now the Wu family is a family of four Tanhua. This time, I can only see if I can attack the Lin family, and the Wu family should not move. Now I have money, but like a child holding a gold bar, no matter how you look at it, you are an undefended fat pig. After stabilizing some forces first, you have to pull some officials into the water. It's nothing more than running a boat to share some benefits. After forming a chain of interests, it will be much better.
When Ling Qingyu felt a little cold on his body, after regaining his senses, seeing Yan San sitting beside her in a daze, he unconsciously asked, "What are you thinking?"
"I'm calculating how much money you got today." Yan San counted his fingers and said, "Why do I think you make money faster than I kill people?"
Ling Qingyu was drinking saliva into his mouth, when he heard his words, he choked up and coughed violently, and when he finally calmed down, he said: "It's better for you to come in quickly, five thousand taels a piece! One hundred is five One hundred thousand taels."
"Hey, there are not many who can afford this price. Most of the time, they kill a master, and they have to kill a lot of money for nothing..." Yan San tilted his head to look at her, and said, "You don't know that the killer is actually the poorest Well?"
Then you were such a dick when you got on my boat! Ling Qingyu said earnestly: "So you'd better follow me, with food and lodging included, there is no risk, and pocket money. Oh, I forgot to give it to you." He took out a bank note from his wallet and stuffed it into his hand. Yawning, went back to bed.
Yan San looked at the one hundred taels of silver notes in his hand, okay, I gave Gu Sui two million taels, and Ding Dong and the others a few hundred and fifty thousand taels of land plus five thousand taels of silver notes for each person, even Cai Jingfang and the boat All of them were given one thousand taels, and it was pocket money when I came here... But fortunately, thinking of the stone cube with the medicinal materials, Yan San's mind was balanced again.
