Now that there is frequent chaos in the Great Zhou Dynasty, the sales of the large amount of exquisite silk and precious porcelain produced every year in Jiangnan County are not very satisfactory.
In recent years, many people have stopped raising silkworms, and many porcelain factories have closed down one after another. If this continues, it will have a great impact on the economy of Jiangnan County.
So if we can open up overseas markets, we can solve many problems. I heard that foreigners overseas particularly like our Chinese silk and porcelain, and the prices are even more ridiculous.
Therefore, once this business is started, it will definitely make a lot of money, and it will definitely greatly alleviate our financial stress problem.
It's just that the emperor has been unwilling to open foreign trade due to various considerations.
So, can we send someone to contact Wilson in the name of smuggling, and take a batch of goods with him to the overseas market to investigate the situation? If it is true as the rumors say, we will jointly report to the emperor and ask him to open overseas trade.
Even if we open one or two ports in Jiangnan and Jiangdong as a pilot first, it would be good. If it doesn't work, we will close them. If they work well, we will open them one after another.
I have to say that this Wu Hongchang is really smart, well versed in economics, has an overall view, has an innovative and pioneering spirit, and he dares to think and do. No wonder Li Wanjiang would hand over the most important Jiangnan County to him.
Naturally, Duanmu Nanfeng would not express his position, he would just deal with it.
Naturally, Wu Hongchang would not force him to express his position. He just knew that he was going to Beijing, so he said hello to him first to let him know.
If the emperor talks to Nanfang about Jiangnan's economy, Nanfeng will naturally make insinuations about the emperor.
In this way, when everyone plays in the future, the emperor will also have an idea in mind.
Lin Dongyang will also hint this matter to the emperor when he comes to Beijing this time. The combined weight of these two people is quite large, and the emperor may be tempted.
"Nanfang, if you talk to Li Wanjiang about this matter, you must firmly object... There is no need to object, just stay silent and don't express your stance." Xiao Chen would never watch this happen.
The overseas market is mine!
But he can't be snatched away by Li Wanjiang, at least not within a few years, so he must nip his idea in the cradle!
"I know, but Wilson..." Duanmu Nanfeng said that Lin Dongyang and the others had probably contacted Wilson.
Although Wilson had no business dealings with Jiangdong County, when his ship passed Anyang Port, he would stop for repairs and replenish supplies, fresh water, etc. on the pretext that the ship was damaged.
These are all excuses. In fact, they have some small business dealings with Jiangdong General Lin Han, and they should not be known...
But Lin Dongyang naturally knew, because he also participated in Ichino, all of which were given by Xiao Chen.
In other words, Lin Dongyang and Wilson can talk directly. Although Wilson has a good relationship with the boss, he is a businessman after all.
Businessmen value profit rather than righteousness, so if you want to stop this, boss, you have to find Wilson.
Xiao Chen said that I will take care of Wilson, you just need to take care of Li Wanjiang.
Lin Dongyang might have wanted to tell Xiao Chen about this last time, but there were too many people and he didn't find the chance. Later, both of them were very busy, and Xiao Chen pretended to be sick for a long time, so he never saw him again.
Unconsciously, we chatted until late at night, and it was time to dig the grave.
When the soldiers guarding the imperial mausoleum saw Mr. Xiao coming late at night again, they were too lazy to ask him. Needless to say, they were here to see the prince again.
Mr. Xiao, you are really persistent. You will not give up until you see the heroic spirit of our prince.
The brothers have been really tired these past few days, so they won’t accompany you. After thanking you for your reward, let’s do our own thing.
I never expected that Xiao Chen would come to rob the tomb.
And everything is ready.
The plan was like this. Fu Yan would find the most suitable location to excavate next to the newly built mausoleum of the imperial concubine. They also brought all the pickaxes, shovels and other tools, as well as twenty brothers of the Cavalry Guard.
These guys are all extremely powerful. They can fight and kill easily. Digging a hole for robbery is just child's play.
Of course, you have to be careful, because there are many hidden mechanisms in the mausoleum of the imperial concubine. It is not stubborn to accidentally trigger it. Fortunately, there is a professional Feng Shui master Yan here, otherwise I would not dare to mess around.
In fact, strictly speaking, tomb robbers and Feng Shui practitioners are the same kind of people, but they are just in different ways. In fact, there are many unscrupulous Feng Shui masters who are secretly digging graves!
And tomb robbers all know a little bit about Feng Shui, and many of them are even much better than ordinary Feng Shui masters!
Of course, Ouyang Yunxiu is also an expert. It is said that Fu Yan learned Feng Shui from the Ouyang family. Although she is not a major in Feng Shui, none of the disciples of the Ouyang family does not understand this technique.
Both of them are here, which is double insurance.
But unexpectedly, Xiao Chen was so well prepared, but all his efforts were in vain.
They just quietly reached the imperial concubine's tomb and saw a hunchbacked old man who had been waiting for a long time in the dark.
He didn't say anything when he saw them, he just gestured to follow me.
The last time Xiao Chen came to see Murong Heng, this hunchbacked old man led the way, but he didn't know who he was?
But one thing is certain, he must have been sent by Zhang Jiuzhi.
It is estimated that Zhang Jiuzhi was afraid that Xiao Chen would bother him again, or that he would make too much noise, so he sent this hunchbacked old man to guide him in advance.
The big guy followed him into a nearby jungle and came to a large rock. He gently reached out and pushed the rock aside, revealing a dark cave underneath. He didn't even say hello. Jump right in.
"You guys stay guard outside, Nanfeng, Miss Ouyang, Xiao Ye and I can just go in." Xiao Chen felt that it was useless if too many people went in.
If something happens and everyone is trapped inside, someone will have to come to the rescue outside.
"No, I have to go!" Ling'er refused to stay outside and got in first.
"Disobedient!" Xiao Chen had no choice but to jump in immediately.
The cave below is only half a person high, and several people can move forward with their waists bent. Xiao Chen and the others are all activated and have night eyes. Although the cave is pitch black, several people can see clearly.
"Nanfeng, hold on to my clothes and watch your steps." Xiao Chen was worried that Duanmu Nanfeng couldn't see the road clearly.
But when he turned around, he saw Nan Feng's eyes flashing with a faint green light, which almost made him fall over in fright!
"I'm sorry, boss, didn't I tell you that I was once eaten by a female wolf when I was a child?" Duanmu Nanfeng quickly grabbed him and whispered, "That female wolf didn't eat me either. , and fed me with wolf milk for more than a month, and since then, I can see things at night."
"Didn't you say that? Those damn people are scary, but they can scare people to death. This is a mausoleum, don't you know?" Xiao Chen was so frightened that he even broke out in sweat.
