"Compass? Qixia Temple actually has such a thing?" Zhu Chongba held the compass in his hand. It seems that there are still experts in Qixia Temple!
Because Zhu Chongba was very interested in this matter, he asked an eminent monk. Of course, this eminent monk also had a very favorable impression of Zhu Chongba. Otherwise, he would probably not know everything about it.
Of course, such things will not be recorded. After all, such things are not important events in the temple. What this eminent monk said was all recorded from his own memory, so the authenticity cannot be guaranteed.
However, Zhu Chongba's purpose was to ask what these things were used for. He was not interested in the specific how to do them.
"Master Rujing, you want to ask what these things are for, right! Let me tell you, my ears are not very good. These things were used by the old abbot to lead us to do business. At that time, we went overseas. Java, and other countries, I can’t remember clearly! I only remember so much.” After the monk finished speaking, he left.
"Thank you very much!" Zhu Chongba had great respect for such an eminent monk! When they were young, they were the main force of Qixia Temple. If it weren't for their efforts, Qixia Temple would probably have become what it would be.
At this time, Zhu Chongba suddenly had an idea, that is, was this money the pension money left by the old abbot to them?
However, it is said that the old abbot suddenly fell ill and passed away without leaving any last words.
It’s really embarrassing to think about what happened to their generation! It’s not easy! It is not easy for people to live, and it is even more difficult to live well.
Because the news that Zhu Chongba received made Zhu Chongba think a lot. Originally, Zhu Chongba thought that his ideas were already very advanced, but now Zhu Chongba no longer thinks so. The old abbot of Qixia City had already thought about it many years ago. Before that, he had led the monks from his monastery to go out to sea to make a living.
How much courage is required for such a thing! This is a pioneer!
In fact, Zhu Chongba thinks there is another explanation for this kind of thing, that is, there is no business to do in the country. In order to survive, you have to work hard. If you do it right, you will have food and drink for a lifetime. If you do it wrong, the big deal will be Think of ways to.
People who think like this are really warriors, and we should be full of respect for them. There is no road in the world. When heroes walk across it, it becomes a road. This is Zhu Chongba's current view.
However, this matter can be used as a reference for Zhu Zhongba in the future. Now Zhu Zhongba will try to do something like this. If it works, then do what Zhu Zhongba thinks now. If it doesn't work, think of other ways. .
Now this is what Zhu Chongba thinks. In fact, this is what happens. If you think of it, you can try it. But for this business, Zhu Chongba is well prepared.
If it succeeds, there will be no problem. If it fails, at least the capital must be retained. Therefore, Zhu Chongba decided to invite people from the escort agency and Fei Ge to pass the message to Huangjue Temple and Baoen Temple to deploy monks and soldiers. Support, because such a thing cannot suffer the loss of capital, because once the capital is lost, it will be difficult to do business again.
This is Zhu Chongba's very cautious idea. In fact, such things are very important to Zhu Chongba. Later, the reason why Zhu Chongba was able to grow from weak to strong step by step when the heroes were competing in the world was like this. Only by being cautious and slowly accumulating can you get the best results.
Otherwise, if Zhu Yuanzhang wanted to win, it would be more difficult than climbing to the sky. In fact, those things in the world that seem impossible are because the road is obscured and everyone cannot see it, but those who are thoughtful can dial it. Open the clouds, see the real road, and then walk on step by step.
Just do it!
Food trafficking is usually from the south to the north, because the north produces less food, but Zhu Chongba is thinking about one thing, that is, the journey from here to the northern capital is too long and has too many variables.
Therefore, Zhu Chongba planned to take less distance this time. In fact, transporting grain from south to north can be divided into several sections. The farther the journey is, the higher the price of food will be. The closer the journey is, the lower the price of food will be. Of course, Well, the so-called high and low are all relative, and they are all very profitable things. It's just a question of more profit and less profit.
On the wall of Zhu Chongba's residence, there is a waterway map of the Grand Canal hanging. He is analyzing how to collect grain, load it on ships, transport grain, and deliver goods!
This is the first time that Zhu Chongba must take action personally. Originally, Zhu Chongba thought that such a thing could be avoided, but now he feels that it must be the first time that Zhu Chongba leads the team. After all, at times like this, it turns out that Zhu Chongba It was done once.
Although Zhu Chongba did it a few years ago, some people still look familiar to him, which makes it tens of thousands of times better than people he has never met before.
This matter cannot be delayed any longer. Zhu Chongba took Xiaochun and several people from Qixia Temple who seemed very reliable. Because Zhu Chongba had not worked with them, this journey was also a test for them. .
Zhu Chongba took everyone to Zhenjiang, which was Zhu Chongba's blessed land. It was here that Zhu Chongba started transporting grain last time.
This time, Zhu Chongba did not ask people to collect grain from each household. Instead, he bought grain directly from grain merchants in order to reduce risks, because collecting grain in the countryside requires help from acquaintances.
For Zhu Chongba, his advantage is that he met some people and experienced some things during the last food transportation. In this way, if something happens, he can quickly think of a solution.
Zhu Chongba is like this now. He only thinks about the worst of what he does. In this way, no matter what kind of thing he encounters, he can deal with it calmly.
From Jinling to Zhenjiang, it doesn't take long by boat.
"Is anyone seasick? Let me know if you are seasick." Xiaochun followed Zhu Chongba's arrangements and paid careful attention to everyone. Zhu Chongba brought seasickness medicine because these small things must be paid attention to. Otherwise, sometimes important events will be delayed.
"I'm a little dizzy. Nothing happened just now. I'm getting more and more dizzy now."
"It's okay, hold on! I have medicine here, come and take some!" With Xiaochun's help, the man quickly took the seasickness medicine. Not to mention, the seasickness medicine was very effective.
Soon, the man felt much better, and everyone was relieved to see the monk's face return to normal.
