Chapter 586 Whispering

Changsun Wuji couldn't help being dumbfounded when he heard this, and asked someone to build a sea boat for you?

This is too shameless, right?

However, Changsun Wuji also knew that it was really not easy to build a sea-going ship now.

The craftsmen and materials for shipbuilding are all in the south, and there are none in the north. Both the craftsmen and the aristocratic families have long been in the hands of those aristocratic families.

The materials for building a ship cannot be built by cutting down a tree, and they have to go through a series of processes, which will not be usable in a few years.

Even if the emperor wants to build a sea-going ship, it is difficult for a clever woman to cook without rice. It will take a few years to build a sea-going ship on a large scale.

"Even if they give you a few boats, and they have more boats, after a few years, they will have already occupied the market." Changsun Wuji pondered.

Su Cheng said with a smile: "It's not that easy to sail long distances. It needs to be explored and accumulated experience. In the past few years, everyone just crossed the river by feeling the stones."

"I have never been afraid of anyone who can become bigger, because the biggest must be the imperial court, and it must be the navy. If you put artillery on the ship, no matter whose ship it is, you must obey orders!"

"That's why I think that if we guide the big family to the sea trade, they will be richer, but they will be easier to control."

Changsun Wuji smiled and said: "That's right, merchant ships equipped with artillery are invincible at sea! But, Su Cheng, you must be vigilant."

Su Cheng smiled and said, "Of course!"

After leaving Duke Zhao's mansion, Princess Changle asked curiously: "Mr. Lang, what are you talking about with Uncle? You have been talking for so long?"

Su Cheng turned his head to look at Princess Changle, was silent for a moment, and said calmly: "It's all about going to sea. Your uncle said a lot. He told me to be vigilant against five surnames and seven Wangs."

Princess Changle said with a smile: "The five surnames and seven wangs have always caused headaches for the imperial court!"

Su Cheng said leisurely: "These dozens of carts of spices have really played a big role. Whether it is the Guanlong chaebol or the five surnames Qiwang, they are all moved."

In fact, Su Cheng was like a bright mirror in his heart. Changsun Wuji had told him so much, so to put it bluntly, he was tempted by Haimao. no advantage.

Changsun Wuji talked to him so much, on the one hand, he was worried that the five surnames and Qiwang would dominate the sea trade, and on the other hand, he wanted to win over Su Cheng.

Princess Changle worried: "Mr. Lang must be very embarrassed now, right?"

Su Cheng smiled and said, "Difficult? No, I'm not embarrassed at all! This is exactly what I want to see. I want to develop maritime trade, because it will make Datang richer and stronger!"

"This is my original intention. However, everyone thinks that you and I are weak, and that I have to rely on a certain party to get a share of this feast."

Although it took Su Cheng two years to become famous in the court, but after all, it was only two years, his foundation was too shallow, even Chang'an could be said, he had no foundation.

Princess Changle said: "Your Majesty is not weak. It took you only two years to create a huge family business, which is something that no one else can accumulate in a few lifetimes."

Su Cheng said with a smile: "What five surnames and seven Wangs, what Guanlong chaebols, they look down on me too much. Since I, Su Cheng, lead Kaihai, it is natural that I, Su Cheng, take the lead!"

After finishing speaking, Su Cheng remembered that Princess Changle was deeply connected with the royal family and the Guanlong chaebol, so he couldn't help laughing and said: "Changle, I don't want to attack the Guanlong chaebol. It is very difficult to compete for five surnames and seven names in maritime trade."

Before Su Cheng could finish speaking, Princess Changle had already burst out laughing and said, "They are all from the Su family, of course they are from the Langjun."

After laughing, Princess Changle blinked her big eyes curiously, and asked, "What is Mr. Lang planning to do?"

Su Cheng smiled complacently: "Everyone is staring at Chang'an and me. In fact, they all forgot about one person!"

Princess Changle asked in confusion, "Who?"

Su Cheng smiled and said, "Feng An!"

Feng Ang?Princess Changle was stunned for a while before she realized: "Duke Geng?"

Su Cheng smiled and said, "Yes, that's the veritable King of Lingnan!"

Feng An is a very unfamiliar name to Princess Changle, even to many officials in the court.

Even most of the people in Chang'an have never heard of this name.

The carriage gradually drove into Patriarch Su, and before Su Cheng and Princess Changle returned to the back house, the young servant came to report.

"Grandpa, princess, the prince and lady of the Taiyuan Wang family are here to visit."

Su Cheng couldn't help raising his eyebrows: "Wang Qingyun?"

Princess Changle raised her eyebrows and said, "Wang Shengnan?"

The focus of the two is completely different. Princess Changle has never met Wang Shengnan. After all, one is the eldest lady of a family and the other is a princess. They have never appeared on the same occasion.

When Wang Shengnan was studying at Patriarch Su, he never met Princess Changle. Of course, Princess Changle didn't notice Wang Shengnan before, and she didn't notice Wang Shengnan until the white-stacked flowers incident. She was very curious about the eldest lady of this family.

"Lang Jun, do you want me to go with you?" Princess Changle smiled sweetly.

Su Cheng nodded indifferently: "Okay!"

The two turned around and walked towards the living room. As soon as they arrived at the living room, they saw Wang Qingyun and Wang Shengnan coming.

Princess Changle's eyes immediately fixed on Wang Shengnan, and Wang Shengnan's eyes also instantly fixed on Princess Changle.

"Jun Gong, long time no see!" Wang Qingyun bowed his hands first.

Su Cheng smiled and said, "It's been a long time indeed!"

Princess Changle smiled slightly and said: "I have heard for a long time that Ms. Wang is both talented and beautiful, but seeing her today is only worthy of her reputation. It really makes me feel ashamed!"

Wang Shengnan smiled and said: "Where is it? I have heard that the princess is known as the most beautiful woman in Chang'an. Today I saw her and she is so famous. The Duke is really lucky."

After finishing speaking, Wang Shengnan turned his eyes to Su Cheng, and said with a little blessing: "Mr. Jun, long time no see. I have been looking forward to the start of the class."

Su Cheng waved his hand with a smile and said, "I'm too busy, I don't have time to start classes! I guess you don't have the time to listen."

A trace of regret flashed in Wang Shengnan's eyes, and he smiled slightly: "That's really a pity!"

Princess Changle said with a smile: "The white stacked flower seeds last time, in fact, I always wanted to say thank you to Ms. Wang in person, but Mr. Wang was very busy! It's just that Ms. Wang didn't accept the reward in the end, which made me very sorry! "

Wang Shengnan smiled slightly and said: "It's just a seed that I got by chance, it's not worth mentioning at all, besides, I have learned so many novel knowledge from the county government, I feel that I can't repay it, so I simply gave it to the county government , Besides, I have always admired the righteousness of the county magistrate for the well-being of the people!"
