Chapter 132: Successful Transaction (Three Changes)
According to Li Zhongyi's idea, it is of course good to be able to directly transport grain across the river from the Southern Tang Dynasty. If it doesn't work, take advantage of Ma Dayong's relationship and make a detour to Wuyue to engage in food, which is actually quite good, and you can also contact the Arab maritime merchants by the way, why not?
Ma Dayong sneered and said, "Ye Dongzhu, I have heard that some of your family's grain was sent to Goryeo?" ”
Li Zhongyi touched his chin, thinking in his heart that since the unification of the Goryeo Dynasty, there has been no war, and the grain should be relatively abundant, which must have smuggled grain to the Great Zhou Kingdom.
Dare to be affectionate, in addition to the business of paper products, thick satin, and linen, this Ye Xianghua also has a way to smuggle grain!
Ye Xianghua's old face flushed slightly, and he returned to normal in an instant, he didn't expect that Ma Dayong's news would be so well-informed.
Ma Dayong saw Ye Xianghua looking at him, and couldn't help pouting and said, "Fish have a way to fish, and shrimp have a way to fish." As far as I know, don't say it's you, even the local Yang stayed behind, and privately sent some grain across the river, which was a big vote. ”
Li Zhongyi heard this, and couldn't help but shake his head secretly, no wonder the Southern Tang Dynasty occupies a lot of land, but the country is destroyed quickly, and the dare is from top to bottom, and it has been hollowed out by ** officials!
Since Ye Xianghua has been exposed, he no longer hides it, he sighed and said: "Even if the water master opens his eyes and closes his eyes, it is also in the case of a small amount." ”
Li Zhongyi heard it very clearly, this Ma Dayong's relationship in Jiangdu Mansion should be no worse than Ye Xianghua, so the news is extremely well-informed.
However, Li Zhongyi was also a little curious about Ma Dayong's unscrupulous talk about smuggling.
This place is Jiangdu, not Ma Dayong's base camp, Xifu, what makes him have the courage to speak like this?
Perhaps because Li Zhongyi saw him differently, Ma Dayong grinned and said: "The officials of the Tang Kingdom are very fond of the goods brought by Hu Shang, and they happen to be operating a unique business of spices, gems and gold sand. ”
Li Zhongyi understood, and dared to love this honest-looking Ma Dayong, who turned out to be a big monopoly businessman.
China's history books have always only recorded the legendary stories of princes and generals, and there is nothing to do with businessmen, no wonder Li Zhongyi has never heard of Ma Dayong's deeds.
"If you can temporarily transfer most of the sailors in Jiangdu, you can give it a try." Ye Xianghua was very worried that the large amount of money in Li Zhongyi's hands would be absorbed by Ma Dayong alone.
It's hard to give up good money, Ye Xianghua put his heart sideways, gritted his teeth and put forward conditions.
Li Zhongyi nodded, this Ye Xianghua finally couldn't resist the temptation of greed for money under the stimulation of Ma Dayong.
Merchants, or capitalists, really don't have a motherland!
However, in order not to alarm Ye Xianghua, Li Zhongyi did not directly agree, but said that he needed to think about it.
Everything was negotiated, Ma Dayong and Ye Xianghua said goodbye and left. After Li Zhongyi sent them out, he ordered Li Xiaoqi to cross the river immediately and take his letter to the other side to find Zhao Kuangyin, who was in charge of secretly answering.
When Li Zhongyi returned to the study, he saw Yang Hanyan holding his cheek with one hand, and a pair of beautiful eyes staring at his face.
"Why are you lying to me?" Seeing Li Zhongyi come in, Yang Hanyan frowned and questioned him coldly.
Li Zhongyi pretended to be confused, and asked Yang Hanyan as if he didn't know: "What are you lying about?" ”
"Didn't you say that the gentleman who chanted the nostalgia of Chibi has gone north?" Yang Hanyan said coldly, "Why are you lying to me? ”
Without waiting for Li Zhongyi to react, Yang Hanyan picked up the jade ruler on the desk and smashed it fiercely.
Li Zhongyi hurriedly turned his head to dodge, "Smack!" The jade ruler in Yang Hanyan's hand slammed into Li Zhongyi's shoulder.
"You're too much of a bully, you don't look down on me at all." Yang Hanyan couldn't help but be stunned when he saw that he really hit Li Zhongyi, and then threw down the jade ruler and cried to rush out of the study.
Li Zhongyi was startled, and let Yang Hanyan run out crying, even if he jumped into the Yellow River, he couldn't wash it.
Holding Yang Hanyan's little hand, Li Zhongyi hurriedly explained: "I didn't lie to you, I'm too young, if I suddenly become famous, it is easy to be burdened by fame." ”
At this time, Li Zhongyi can only insist on emphasizing a low-key way of life, otherwise, no matter how he explains, it will be difficult to make sense.
"You don't want to be famous?" Yang Hanyan was really attracted by Li Zhongyi's statement, and subconsciously stopped crying.
Li Zhongyi sighed and said, "I am from a poor family, and I am so young, once I am too famous, I am easy to be hated. ”
Ahem, that's really divine logic. However, when a woman is excited, she is by no means an animal willing to be reasonable.
At this time, it is often easier to gain their understanding of unreasonable reasoning than serious reasoning.
"Yes," Yang Hanyan seemed to understand Li Zhongyi's distress, "you...... What kind of system does pulling and pulling become? ”
Li Zhongyi realized that he had been holding Yang Hanyan's little hand tightly, and after being reminded, he quickly let go of his hand.
"I came here uninvited today to tell you that your paper business may not last long." Yang Hanyan suddenly said something shocking, which made Li Zhongyi startled.
Li Zhongyi hurriedly asked her, "What's wrong?" What happened? ”
Yang Hanyan frowned and said, "I heard from my cousin today that there is an abnormal movement in the Zhou State Naval Division in the north, and the Jiangdu side is about to be closed. I may have to wait a few days to get the books I want. ”
Li Zhongyi understood as soon as he heard that Nantang must have stationed a lot of fine works in the Later Zhou Dynasty, and he may have noticed the movements of Zhao Laoer, who cooperated with his actions.
What did the Southern Tang rely on to resist the attack of the Later Zhou army? The main thing is to rely on the water master.
When Li Zhongyi went down to the south of the Yangtze River to engage in grain, the first thing he needed to consider was how to avoid the interception of the Southern Tang Dynasty sailors.
The information provided by Yang Hanyan was so timely, Li Zhongyi was secretly glad that he had gained a lot from knowing this beauty.
Li Zhongyi accompanied Yang Hanyan to chant poems, copied a few classic good words, and sent her out of the door with a satisfied excuse for something.
After Yang Hanyan left, Li Zhongyi wrote a letter and ordered someone to inform Ma Dayong and Ye Xianghua that the situation had changed and that the plan was to be changed.
At the same time, Li Zhongyi led Han Tong and the others to leave the house immediately, took a large amount of money that had been loaded on the ship, and crossed the river smoothly.
Yang Hanyan's news was really well-informed, and in the early morning of the second day after Li Zhongyi crossed the river, all the Jiangdu water divisions of the Southern Tang Dynasty were dispatched to completely seal the river, and the water transportation between the north and the south was immediately banned.
Zhao Kuangyin stood side by side with Li Zhongyi with his hands behind his back, he suddenly sighed and said: "There are people in the DPRK who use the sailors to engage in smuggling, but they have alarmed the sailors of the Southern Tang Dynasty. Fortunately, sir, you saw the opportunity early, otherwise, it would be even more difficult to cross the river again. ”
Li Zhongyi smiled slightly and said, "If it's just me, it's nothing, there is a way to cross the river anytime and anywhere." The main thing is that the money earned in Nantang is loaded with more than a dozen big ships, which is very troublesome. ”
"According to what Mr. said, then Ma Dayong and Ye Xianghua, really have a way to transport grain across the Yangtze River?" Zhao Kuangyin asked Li Zhongyi with some hesitation.
Li Zhongyi smiled faintly and said, "Ye Xianghua is not easy to say, but I am very confident in Ma Dayong's ability." ”
Seeing that Li Zhongyi was so determined, Zhao Kuangyin just nodded, and didn't say anything more.
According to the agreement in the letter, a month later, Li Zhongyi waited for Ma Dayong in Tongzhou (Nantong).
Li Zhongyi saw that on the wide river, among the more than 100 merchant ships that were slowly sailing, there were more than a dozen Arab merchant ships, and he couldn't help but smile slightly, the relationship between Ma Dayong and Hu Shang was indeed extraordinary.
After Ma Dayong got off the boat, he said with a smile: "Gong Li, I miss you again so soon." ”
Li Zhongyi didn't see Ye Xianghua, he knew that there was a change, and arched his hand and said, "Ma Gong is really a believer. ”
Ma Dayong grinned and explained, "After receiving your letter, Ye Dongzhu and I both think it's wonderful. Ye Dongzhu was worried that he would come forward in person and the goal was too big, so he agreed with me that I would transport grain from Xifu to the north. He went from 6 taels of water to Xifu (Hangzhou) to replenish the grain to me. ”
After Li Zhongyi heard this, he couldn't help but smile slightly, this Ye Xianghua is worthy of being an old fritter in a shopping mall, he not only made a lot of food money, but also did not take any risks, which can be described as killing two birds with one stone.
"Gong Li, in the future, I hope you will take care of the business of my Ma Ji Commercial Bank in the Northland." Ma Dayong glanced at Zhao Kuangyin, who had been silent beside him, and bowed his hand to Li Zhongyi with deep meaning.
Li Zhongyi naturally knew in his heart, Ma Dayong should have guessed that he was Zhou Chen, this guy is really smart.
"The Xiaoyaojin Bazaar outside Kaifeng City is waiting for the owner of the horse." Li Zhongyi smiled implicitly and pointed out his identity as an imperial businessman.
Ma Dayong smiled happily and said, "Gong Li, today is only the first batch, and there will be a large number of them the day after tomorrow." ”
Li Zhongyi thought about it, it was impossible to transport more than one million stones of grain and dozens of ships with thousands of materials at one time.
"Ma Dong, there is something to discuss......" Li Zhongyi pulled Ma Dayong aside, and after some bargaining, Ma Dayong nodded happily.
As the time of the gambling contract approached, Liang Guobin sent people to Xiaoyaojin several times to find Li Zhongyi, worried that he might abscond in fear of crime.
However, Li Zhongyi never showed up, and Huang Jingsheng only sighed, but never mentioned Li Zhongyi's whereabouts.
Liang Guobin became more and more worried that Li Zhongyi was running away in private, so he found some witnesses and personally killed Xiaoyaojin to find out.
Not long after Li Zhongyi got off the boat and returned to Xiaoyaojin, he saw Liang Guobin leading everyone violently and breaking into the Jinka official hall.
"Proprietor Li, is it really easy for Liang to find?" As soon as Liang Guobin saw Li Zhongyi, he was angry and didn't fight anywhere, and tried his best to be hot and sarcastic.
Li Zhongyi saw a large group of people following Liang Guobin, including a few witnesses, and immediately understood in his heart that Liang Guobin was worried that he had run away.
"Lord Liang, why are you in such a hurry to find me?" Li Zhongyi looked at Liang Guobin coldly.
Liang Guobin's nostrils were facing the sky, and he said arrogantly: "The surname is Li, you haven't bought a grain of grain until now, hehe, it's too late." This bazaar is about to belong to the contemptible people, and I am naturally entitled to come and see my own property. ”
"Li Jinling, I didn't say you, how can you treat the contract as child's play?" A witness jumped out in time to help Liang Guobin, "It's been more than three months, and you haven't received much food, do you want to abscond?" ”
