Suning is telling the truth......

It's just that there must be people who don't believe it, except for the three princes who paid a lot of money to buy some tea from Suning for the ship's senior crew such as their henchmen and the like, the other princes don't have this image, although Suning warned about it, but they don't seem to care.

Historically, China's ocean-going fleet appeared on a large scale after the Tang Dynasty, when the wind of drinking tea prevailed, and the content of vitamin C in green tea was quite high, so scurvy has been far away from Chinese sailors, and Westerners did not have this habit, so with the advent of the Age of Discovery, Western sailors suffered heavy casualties, Zheng He's fleet not only carried tea, but also pickled vegetables, pickles, pickles, bean sprouts, etc., with sufficient guarantees of vegetables and fruits, so it could have the ability to go to the sea.

After all, Suning couldn't bear to let those crew members who were about to go to sea die of painful scurvy, so even if they made money, they would be hated by many people, this kind of money can't be earned, and Suning didn't want to do this, so he had to tell these princes that it was dangerous to have no vegetables and fruits at sea, but we could bring some soil to cultivate some vegetables, the boat was very large, and a lot of soil could be released, and bean sprouts could come out without soil at all, just some rain, with these, the crew would not die of disease.

Suning has done his duty, if these princes don't pay attention to themselves, they deserve to die!

The princes left satisfied, and began to arrange matters concerning the sea, and printed a large number of charts for the main leaders of the fleet, and even for their own sons, etc. They will not go themselves, but the leader of a large fleet must not be an ordinary person.

Li Chengqian didn't leave, but stayed in Suning's study, Suning asked the cook to prepare some high-calorie fried and barbecued food, as well as chicken soup and rice, and the two warmed a pot of wine and began to drink.

"Sanming, listening to what you said, I want to get a fleet to go to sea, if I can really make so much money. There's nothing wrong with paying for some casualties. You can exchange porcelain for huàn gold and silver, oh my God, that's a lot of money! Sanming, or else. I pay. You go out of the fleet. How about our dividends?! Li Chengqian's eyes were already red.

Suning rolled his eyes: "Let me ask you, when have you ever seen me suffer?" ”

Li Chengqian was a little confused: "What do you mean?" ”

Suning asked him: "You just need to answer me, when have I ever suffered a loss?" When have you ever seen me suffer? Except for your father and mother, I can't resist that. ”

Li Chengqian thought seriously for a while. replied: "I really haven't seen you suffer, you have always let others charge ahead, you pick up cheap ones in the back, what do you do to make money, to be honest, I really envy your skills." ”

Suning nodded and said, "So, if it's really so good to sail to make money, why should I sue others?" I'll just secretly get a fleet to go to sea myself, it's a big deal to talk to Your Majesty, let Your Majesty also share some dividends, I will already be rich and rival the country! ”

Li Chengqian rolled his eyes: "You are not poor now, at least you are much richer than me." ”

Suning said angrily: "You are the crown prince, you will be the emperor in the future, the money of the entire Tang Dynasty is yours, you are poorer than me?" Who is poorer than whom?! ”

Li Chengqian waved his hand to admit defeat: "You are poor, you are poor, right?" You go on and on, and you go on. ”

Suning said very unhappily: "So, I won't suffer in making money at all, only others will suffer my losses, and I won't suffer other people's losses, the reason why I will let your uncles do this thing is that although this thing is really profitable, the possibility of annihilation is much higher than the possibility of making a lot of money!" ”

Li Chengqian was shocked: "Sanming, this is not a joke, this time it is all the fleets of people in my royal family, I also heard that some uncles plan to let their sons also go to see and see, to be a commander or something, if something happens, the whole army will be wiped out, no, even if it is only a slight loss of manpower, my father will not be able to bear it!" ”

Suning said indifferently: "Of course I'm not joking, when have I ever joked about these things?" Come on, come on, come on the dishes, eat some first, and talk while eating. Suning was talking, the dish came up, Suning added a piece of fried chicken and put it in his mouth and chewed it, that was comfortable, but Li Chengqian obviously didn't have such a good appetite, and hurriedly said: "What to eat, you say it quickly, human life is at stake!" ”

Suning put down the wine glass, shook his head and said, "Cheng Qian, have you ever seen the sea?" ”

Li Chengqian shook his head: "No." ”

Suning nodded and said, "Then do you know what it's like to sail to the depths of the sea and look around at the sea, and you can't see the 6 places at all?" You know that once you encounter a storm at sea, let alone how many fleets, even if you tie all the ships of the whole Datang together, you may not be able to carry it, you have not seen the horror of the storm at sea, but once you encounter a storm on the sea and the ship is damaged, then less than one percent of the people on this ship can survive, and more than ninety percent will die or even be wiped out, which is by no means sensational.

Cheng Qian, if you want to get something, you have to pay something, the profit of sea trade can almost be multiplied more than ten times, and in Datang, a worthless toy can be exchanged for gold there, how much wealth is in the middle? Such a huge wealth can be obtained lightly without paying some price? I don't believe in the life of this kind of thing, how can I get it if I don't pay the price?

The greater the reward, the greater the risk, if the ocean-going fleet can come back, even if it is only a third of it, it will be enough for those uncles of yours to make a lot of money, and then they will not care about casualties, they only know that they will become rich when they come back from a trip, they will only think about organizing the next fleet, and they will not care about other things, son? Which of your uncles and uncles didn't have three or five sons? Is the absence of one a big deal?

They won't care, what are you worried about? And I made it clear to them early on about the risks of maritime trade, and they didn't listen to themselves, so what do we care? Even if the whole army is annihilated, it will not be able to rely on me, and my family foundation is thin. I don't have many people, I can't stop my fleet from going to sea, and my family still has trade in the north, and His Majesty will not allow me to engage in both northern and southern trade, and they don't really have anything to do with me.

Cheng Qian, this matter has nothing to do with you, and it has nothing to do with Your Majesty, you are back, you have a lot of money, and they will not give you a little bit. Didn't come back. You can't blame you for losing all your money, because there is always someone who can make a lot of money and come back and go out with a dozen fleets. Even if only one team returns safely and makes a lot of money. That's an example. We'll be safe and sound, nothing at all. ”

Li Chengqian was stunned for a while before raising his glass and drinking the wine in the cup. After eating several pieces of barbecue meat in a row, he said lightly: "I also understand what you said, but my father is already relatively harsh on the royal family, not to mention that there is no feudal land for the royal family in the Han Dynasty, except for my father's children, there are basically no fiefs, and there are not many food estates."

Since my father ascended the throne, he has imposed more constraints on the royal family, and sometimes I can't stand it, the fleet has done its best, if the whole army is annihilated, then there is really no hope at all, and when the royal family is ruined, what is it? Spread out, don't Datang become a laughing stock? ”

Suning sighed, drank a glass of wine, and said: "This matter is decided by themselves, I didn't force them, and neither did Majesty, they felt that their environment was not good and wanted to improve, Majesty gave them the opportunity to improve, and promised to let them go to sea, I told them everything that should be sued for them, the nautical chart was also given to them, Sinan also gave them, if there is a problem, it is their own problem, and it has nothing to do with us."

They chose the road themselves, who do they blame? Tell them that they are still forcing me to sail, that the trade between the north and the west has been divided, and there are no more vacant places, and if they want to come in, they will drive away many people, and will those people be willing? But they are royalty, if they want to fight, how can the courtiers rob the royal family? If they are under the banner of His Majesty, it will not be long before the current good situation will be destroyed.

And it will lead to the dissatisfaction of the courtiers with His Majesty, and the most dangerous thing at that time is His Majesty, not the royal family, so he can only start from the sea transportation where no one participates, blame me? Blame themselves; Think about it from another angle, Cheng Qian, if a few of them come back and make a lot of money! We can spread the word about it, and when the time comes, how many people will be brought to sea, do you probably estimate?

Shipping can make a lot of money, we can set up a relevant tax department in the port, and impose heavy taxes on the fleet of wealthy people who return from shipping, two or three percent can, how much money will it be? How much benefit will this money bring to Datang if it is used to build the land of Jiangnan and Shandong? If you don't know how much money it will be, when the uncles come back this time, you see, if you collect taxes, how much taxes can be collected?

In less than two or three years, shipping will be popular in Datang, and things brought from foreign countries will also be popular in Datang, and a tax agency directly under the direct jurisdiction of His Majesty will be set up in the port, and all the taxes collected will be used for local construction. Suzhou, Hangzhou, or even Suzhou and Hangzhou are ripe, the world is full, the soil in this area is too fertile, the climate is good, and the water is sufficient!

Once it is unfolded, it will not be ten or twenty years, and it will be more than ten or twenty years! Can you believe it? In the next ten years, the tax center of Datang is the area of Suzhou and Hangzhou, that is, Jiangnan, the population will be more, the money will be more, and the grain will be more, and in the end, the wealth of the entire Jiangnan will be far greater than that of Jiangbei, and the land of Guanzhong will not be able to compare with the land of Jiangnan! ”

Li Chengqian was dumbfounded and asked curtly: "This, it's a bit sensational, right?" ”

Suning was unprecedentedly strict: "We can all wait for this day to come, we can wait, wait and see if this day will come!" ”

Out of absolute trust in Suning, Li Chengqian was silent, he knew that Suning would not be untargeted, would not make things up, he was really talented and learned, his father often said that he should think more about Suning to learn and learn whimsy, Suning's whimsy can bring countless wealth and huge changes to Datang, the world supports labor reform, officials and the people have an unprecedented unified understanding, high-yield grain has reduced too much burden on Datang, and the caravan action has directly hollowed out the entire Western Turks, Not to mention the achievements of the military university and the general staff headquarters.

If Suning could be forty years old, no, thirty years old, Li Er Majesty would not hesitate to give him the position of prime minister, such a talent is too rare, what he said, as long as he agrees, it is basically certain, and it will definitely be beneficial, and it is all from the Tang Dynasty, so far he has only made a dozen chain restaurants for himself, and he has made some white sugar and rock sugar, and basically shared it with others, he has never swallowed the benefits alone, how smart is it?

In such an era, Datang has obtained a talent like Suning, how to say it, it is like a land of long-term drought and ushered in a rain. (To be continued......)
