Datang's free and easy concubine

Chapter 780 Returning to the Heart Like an Arrow

Feng Zhidai, who was still a little depressed at first, couldn't help being excited when he heard Su Cheng's words. He didn't know how much profit he could make by transporting goods to Japan.

But transporting spices to the spice island can definitely make a fortune, and only Su Cheng knows the location of the spice island, so he can be so willful and let Chuan Dui go straight to the spice island.

After hearing this, Feng Zhidai felt a lot less depressed, and asked, "What kind of goods do you want to bring? What profits can the Japanese overseas small country make?"

Su Cheng said with a smile: "Wa country is very poor, not enough to eat and not warm, but gold, silver and copper are produced in that place, but the supplies are not rich, and even if you have money, you can't buy them."

"Let's bring some fabrics, pottery, and tea. Think about it, how can their fabrics and pottery be as gorgeous and exquisite as our Tang Dynasty's? It will definitely cause a sensation, and let them exchange a lot of gold and silver with us!"

Feng Zhidai licked his lips when he heard that, if Japan was rich in gold and silver, then he would definitely be able to exchange for gold and silver with ceramics and fabrics.

Su Cheng said with a smile: "Those small countries overseas do not have the exquisite craftsmanship of our Tang Dynasty, so the things we make are treasures when brought there, but those poor places are also rich in gold, silver, precious stones and spices, and once brought back, they will be invaluable!"

Feng An nodded and said, "That's what the Duke said!"

Su Cheng said with a smile: "The prosperity of the world is for profit, and the hustle and bustle of the world is for profit. Once the sea trade flourishes in Guangzhou City, there will naturally be businessmen coming here to buy and sell, and the whole Lingnan will be revitalized!"

Feng An pondered: "What if the ships of those aristocratic families follow our fleet?"

Su Cheng said with a smile: "The country of Wa is actually not small, so the business of the country of Wa is not enough for our current fleet size, and the ship of the aristocratic family can go to the country of Wa after a few years of exploration! There is no need to keep it secret."

"So, if the aristocratic family's boat follows, then let them follow to Wa Kingdom, but if they want to follow to Spice Island, that's up to them!"

Feng Zhidai couldn't help nodding when he heard that, it doesn't matter if the family's boat goes to the Wa country, but the family covets Spice Island and wants to go to Spice Island, that's not okay!

Just relying on the sharpness of the artillery, it is simply too simple to drive away the sea ships of those aristocratic families.

In the front hall, Su Cheng took out the navigation manual and talked with Feng An and his son until late.

The Feng family, Feng Zhiyu, and Feng Zhichen have been waiting anxiously until late at night before finally waiting for the old man to come back.

"Father, how is it? How did the talk go?

"Feng Zhiyu and Feng Zhichen asked impatiently.

Feng Zhidai explained: "It's settled, [-] to [-] percent, we will take [-] percent, and Su Cheng will take [-] percent."

Feng Zhiyu and Feng Zhichen almost didn't jump up when they heard this. Is this a deal?

"Twenty to eighty points? How can this work? Su Cheng opened his mouth like a lion, Dad, why did you agree? Second brother, how did you talk about it?" Feng Zhiyu asked repeatedly, and the two of them really couldn't accept this result.

Feng Zhidai explained: "Su Cheng won't give an inch. We have too few bargaining chips, so we can only accept the result."

At first, he also found it difficult to accept and was very depressed, but after a long talk with Su Cheng, he suddenly felt that [-]% to [-]% was quite good.

Feng Zhichen said with a sad face: "Twenty to eighty percent is too little, even thirty to seventy percent is fine."

Feng An waved his hand and said, "Su Cheng just went south to Lingnan with the goal of [-]% to [-]%. He won't accept anything other than [-]% to [-]%!"

"Now that the dust has settled, [-]% is [-]%!"

Now that the old man has already agreed, it is impossible to go back on his word, and it is impossible to talk to Su Cheng again. Although Feng Zhichen and Feng Zhiyu brothers are very depressed, they can only accept it.

Seeing the gloomy expressions of the two of them, Feng Zhidai said with a smile: "I've made a deal with Su Chengshang, I'm going to sea this year, first deliver the goods to Japan, and then go to Spice Island to pick spices and return..."

Before Feng Zhidai could finish speaking, Feng Zhichen and Feng Zhiyu's eyes lit up. Unexpectedly, Su Cheng didn't hide his secrets at all, and directly sent the fleet to Spice Island.

They listened to Feng Zhidai's words, and as they listened, the depression in their hearts gradually dissipated, and instead they cheered up.

Going to sea is indeed a wealth of money, it would be a pity to miss it!

If they did not set up a shipping department in Lingnan, their Feng family would not be able to get a share of the maritime trade.

So it’s not a loss to account for [-]%!

In the manor, Su Cheng, who sent off Feng An and his son, also heaved a sigh of relief. This trip to Lingnan was finally not in vain.

When everything was settled, Su Cheng stretched his waist and suddenly felt very homesick.

He didn't stay in Chang'an for a long time, but Su Cheng seemed to regard Chang'an as his hometown.

Thinking of Princess Changle who was guarding the empty bed alone, Su Cheng's heart became more and more yearning and burning.

During this trip to Lingnan, I didn't have time to send a letter to Princess Changle, and I didn't know what Princess Changle was worried about.

"Grandpa, is the deal settled?" Luo Xiangfeng asked with concern. Although they don't know anything about maritime trade, they know that it must be very important for Su Cheng to travel thousands of miles south.

Su Cheng stretched his waist and said with a smile: "It's settled! Are you almost packing up everything?"

Shen Xiao nodded and said: "It was cleaned up early in the morning, but there is actually nothing to clean up!"

They galloped all the way south, they didn't bring anything at all, they just bought some things when they came to Guangzhou city.

Su Cheng nodded and said, "Okay, then let's head north tomorrow!"

Shen Xiao and Luo Xiangfeng were surprised when they heard this: "Going north tomorrow?"

Su Cheng smiled and said, "Yes, I'm going north tomorrow. Now that we've settled the deal, why stay in Lingnan? It's too hot here, and there are many mosquitoes. Besides, I'm really homesick!"

Lingnan is indeed hot and humid and has a lot of mosquitoes. Shen Xiao and Luo Xiangfeng often complain, but when they really heard Su Cheng say that they would leave Lingnan, they were very reluctant.

Because there are the best memories of their lives here, it really makes them reluctant to leave.

And when Su Cheng went north to Yuhang, Wu Jue and the others would appear beside Su Cheng, and then continue north, the more women around Su Cheng would come back.

Therefore, they cherish every moment they spend with Su Cheng now.

Although they were reluctant to leave, they didn't say anything, because they thought it might be dangerous for Su Cheng to stay in Lingnan, and it was better to leave as soon as possible.

Of course, Su Cheng didn't think there was any danger in staying in Lingnan. Now that he had reached an agreement with the Feng family, it was more likely that the Feng family would be unfavorable to him.

He just felt a little overwhelmed.

Xue Rengui and other soldiers were also very happy when they heard that they were going back to Lingnan.

They also felt like returning home, and they were all from the north, and the climate in Lingnan was really unacceptable to them.
