Tang Dynasty good man

Chapter [-] Gong Xi Fa Cai

One five ten, fifteen twenty.Mathematics is a magical subject. The ten reference symbols from zero to nine are endowed with various calculation methods, and the resulting numbers are a bit...

"Maybe I made a mistake, I'll do it again." The number is a bit big, you know I'm a careless guy, maybe something went wrong.I am a serious businessman, and I do not participate in illegal transactions of drugs and arms, so if the gap between income and investment is too outrageous, it is generally a miscalculation.

"Calculate slowly, don't worry." Lan Ling looked outside the door to look at the sun, and said with a smile: "It's still early, it's up to you to calculate the darkness."

As a mathematician, this kind of simple addition, subtraction, multiplication and division is a bit overkill, but I like it.Obviously, there were two buying and selling processes during the round-trip voyage accompanied by the fleet; when they went, they were fully loaded with silk, jade, toilet water, paper and other special products of the Tang Dynasty in China, which were in short supply and sought after.When I came back, I brought a large number of gems, rhino horns, spices, gold... still very popular and very popular.

It is rare for wild people in Huawai to see such a magical product, no matter what it is, it can make those wild monkeys become irrational and crazy.This is not what I described, but the lament of the Chinese navigators when they returned to their motherland. The people under the shining civilization of China cannot understand that there is such a backward way of life in this world.In a country rich in spices, gemstones, ivory, rhinoceros horn, gold, and all kinds of valuable objects, most of the people lived in scantily-clothed lives. In some areas, even women ran around the world with their skin and flesh exposed, eating unbearable food. The vulgar food to swallow, a large number of people crowded in the dilapidated houses of all kinds, and the pungent and strange smell exuded on the narrow and potholed streets, described in the words of navigators: they are not willing to sell silk and satin to them, It's ruined to wear it on the body.

With eyewitness testimony, it appears to be true.However, it is gratifying that the commerce and trade there are still relatively developed, and of course it is not as standardized as the commerce and trade industry of the Tang Empire.All kinds of illegal traders abound.Our nautical hero fights all kinds of profiteers along the way, and despite gains and losses in the transaction, he still gets rich returns.All kinds of expenses along the way are astonishingly high, but the various rare treasures returned with a full load are enough to make people ignore this insignificant cost.

"How to exchange gold?"

"It's just a rough calculation. There is always a consumption when melting gold ingots, and the fineness is also different. Didn't I already estimate the big number, you can just add it up." Lan Ling speculated that a big emerald would be right in his hand. I don't want to talk too much with me because of the light.

"Oh!" I rubbed my temples.Breaking up the numbers on the abacus, pressing out the turbid air in his lungs, and letting out a long and earth-shattering sigh, I, Wang Laowu, have never seen so much money!Immediately afterwards, his mind went blank, and he slumped limply on the couch, and was in a semi-comatose state for the next half an hour.

What else do you want?Don't think about anything!The long journey of life, the long and painful struggle, suddenly all become history.Once the clouds and the sun are cleared, I can finally be free, God has eyes!

It is no exaggeration to say that this voyage was the most profitable trade in the business world since the founding of the Tang Empire.Silk and paper are civilian products; they are just daily necessities and can be seen everywhere.They can be bought anywhere, and what can be exchanged for are crystal-clear and hard-bodied luxury goods, whose value is difficult to estimate.Lanling's three fingers are neither three times nor thirty percent, but thirty times!

What is the concept of five thousand strings multiplied by thirty? 15! What is the concept of 15?15 laborers can be transported back from Korea in a horse-drawn cart!About two full armies can be prepared.

"Wake up." Seeing that something was wrong with me, Lan Ling grabbed my shoulder and shook it for a while, "Pretend, pretend to poke it with a hairpin... Quickly move, don't scare me."

My limbs don't listen to the brain's command, just like in a dream.Ke Lanling's voice was very real, and the shaking from his shoulders became more and more intense, but I'm still not sure that these are real.Mengbai said: "Prick it. Use your strength."

It hurts, the feeling from my buttocks made me moan comfortably, I woke up from the dream, and I can confidently pinch Lanling's neck for 15 bonus, press it down, press it tight, snap my fingers, take off the ring...

"Crazy!" Lan Ling was pressed under me and couldn't move.He raised his arms high and tried to punch his fingers.Helpless, I was too strong, and I punched each other.Deadlocked.Lan Ling shouted: "It hurts! If you go crazy again, you will be annoyed!"

"Give it to me!" I didn't like this diamond ring for a long time. I didn't dare to touch it because I was poor and had no qualifications or status to touch such a noble gem.It's different now, my waist is 15 guan, and the diamond ring is a fart. There is nothing in this world that we can't afford, so grab it and put it on your finger first!Lan Ling dared not give in, dared to challenge a rich man like me, and shouted: "Don't move! Be careful, I will slap you!"

Lan Ling's stiff body suddenly softened, and his fingers opened in unison. Even though I took the ring off my finger, I pulled a pillow over it and laughed sickly. I kept laughing, and I hesitated whether to give it Put on the ring.

"Make an offer, I'll buy it!" It was the first time that he faced the priceless treasure with such confidence. Few people in the world dared to say that alone.Don't be intimidated by her laughter, we are rich, we are kind people, we look down on robbers.

Lan Ling ignored me, just laughed until he was dying of laughter, and his shoulders shrugged so much that he needed artificial respiration.After finally turning it over for her, he pinched her chin and paused, so that she wouldn't end up like Niu Gao.

"Talking about business, what are you laughing at?"

"Give it back to me." With a deep smile on Lan Ling's face, he stretched out his hand feebly to ask for the ring, "Hurry up, I'm going crazy."

"No," don't say, Lanling's ring fits well in my hand, it may be a little tight, but I feel comfortable. "I'll buy it, you make an offer."

"Don't make trouble, I have some more, but I won't give you this one." Lan Ling got up and pulled me over to take off the ring. The two of them murmured for a long time, and it was over.

It was a very painful process, one pull, one pull, the fingers were rubbed and turned red, but they couldn't get off the hand, "Don't pull, it's broken!" After feeling the pain, I retracted my fingers and looked carefully, it was very pitiful, the skin was a little worn out. "Go and get some sesame oil, the stretch is swollen and I can't get it off. It hurts me."

"It deserves it!" The sesame oil was good, once it was lubricated, it opened.Lan Ling touched my red and swollen middle finger pitifully, with a smile and annoyance, "I'm really shameless, I'm the only princess who was robbed in the first few years since the founding of the Tang Dynasty. It's a pity, it's a pity to add an article in the law: Looting the princess's property Those who are involved will be deprived of their rights to share dividends!"

"Oh. Then I'll die with you, don't expect me to die." Recovering a little bit of reason, he squeezed Lan Ling's face apologetically, "Hey..., I was very good just now, right?" I'm old, but I was so crushed just now that I couldn't move. It seems that I still have great potential. Being rich and powerful is equal to being brave and good at fighting?

"Okay. I won't argue with you," Lan Ling leaned over and kissed me on the face, and said pitifully, "Poor man, a few pennies have confused people, and they are so heavy that they can't breathe. With this sweetness, no matter how much profit you get in the future.”

He waved his fingers a little hesitantly, not knowing how much money he would make in the future, so he muttered in his mouth not knowing what to say.

"Hesitated just once?" Lan Ling sat down next to him, and said softly, "That's fine. This much money is enough for several lifetimes..."

"That's not what it means. Shall we share the dividend first? Part of it." The family has been really nervous recently, and once the battle is over, they are always stretched. All the expenses of Longyou are paid from the Lanling loan. "You know that I don't have any big ambitions, and I can feel at ease only if I have a bag in my pocket."

Lan Ling nodded, "Of course we have to share. Shareholders of course have dividends, and all participants must feel the benefits of sailing. This voyage has given us a lot of insight and confidence. Not only on land , not just selling chariots and horses. It’s more profitable to do business on sea boats.”

The reason is this, the sale of carriages and horses is too restrictive, the high-cost operations of roads, national borders, etc. reduce the efficiency, and the industry restricts the development of commerce; relatively speaking, sea transportation is much more convenient, but the navigation technology and boats of this era Defects in ship craftsmanship make shipping extremely dangerous.

Fortunately, in the words of navigators, various irresistible factors on the journey made this safe round trip full of luck.A journey as dangerous as a bet and endless riches on the ocean side.It's really hard to choose between the two.I see.Lan Ling understood that how to improve the navigation technology and boat manufacturing process to a higher level was the most urgent problem to be solved.

More safety means more profit.It can inspire more adventurous people to participate. The navigators recorded all kinds of nautical equipment in various countries during the journey, hoping that these detailed map materials can improve the level of Datang's navigation industry, and try their best to abduct and kidnap them back. The value of various technical personnel may be far greater than the commercial benefits, so we have taken a successful step towards the ocean.

"Thanks to you. Thanks to your various proposals in the past. There are not so comprehensive proposals. Even if the fleet succeeds, it will only bring back some money, which is nothing more than petty profits." Lan Ling moved the jewelry box, inside He took out a small wooden box and handed it to me. "It's a special reward for you. It has nothing to do with me. It was issued by the court. I want to hand it to you."

When the box is opened, there is a small medal, which is very delicate, and the metal stamping process is tumbling under the tall building boat to form high rolling waves, which is lifelike.The back is exquisitely engraved with small characters, the year name, the name of the winner, and the inscription by His Majesty the Emperor himself, which is a high-standard reward. "Come on, let me bring it for you," Lan Ling took the medal and hung it on my chest skillfully, "Everyone who returns this time will have one, either silver or copper, only you and the chief steward of this voyage It's covered with gold. Your Majesty should have personally issued this one, but..."

"But what?" Proudly raised his chest, our gold is enough, anyone can award it, compared to the current head of state, Lanling is better for me, I like this faint feeling, state affairs are handled as home affairs That kind of warmth.

Lan Ling withdrew his serious expression, covered his mouth and laughed, "Okay, don't show off." He took off the medal on my chest, put it in a box and threw it aside, "I said it was awarded together, but who told you that you are a shareholder?" What? The motives are not pure. You are loyal to the king and serve the country, and you are focused on collecting money; for this, no matter how great the credit is, it is only this medal, and it is not your turn to do anything else."

"Hey..." We can't argue with this fact.It is enough to have a profit, other rewards are considered as add-ons, some are considered accidents, and it is not a pity to lose them. "That's enough, a medal is enough to show off for decades, that's great."

I don't know how I got home. Anyway, I didn't ride a horse, and I didn't seem to hold the rein, so I walked ahead.Ma Youran followed behind. This situation made people on the road feel weird. From time to time, someone would stand at a distance and look at me.The eyes of passers-by made BMW Dundun a little embarrassed, and quickly put his head in front of my shoulder and snorted, reminding me that I shouldn't ignore it, and made me spit on my face.

Walking a horse is like this, which is rare and strange.He despised the gossip passers-by for a few glances, and pushed Dundun's big head aside.People are not embarrassed, horses are embarrassed, and they are not promising.

All the way I was thinking about Lanling's plan.She proposed to create a new discipline, comprehensively covering all items needed in navigation, from boat construction technology to various navigation skills, and even training professional nautical chart mappers and more professional diplomats.

The plan is too big, too out of scale.It cannot be said that Lanling is so ambitious.But it is not easy to get so many subjects together at once.Not only is there a lack of professionals in this field as the backbone of teachers in the school, but there are also very few people who have actually experienced many voyages.Disciplines can be established slowly, everything has to be explored, and the possibility of trying to eat a fat man is zero.You can start with boat craftsmanship first, as long as the quality of boats is improved.If sailing becomes a pillar of the Tang Empire's income, it will inspire the adventurous spirit of the people of the Tang Empire to go to sea to seek wealth, and the prosperity of the areas around sailing will be just around the corner.

Boat industry, hehe.I don't know anything.If you take a big boat, you will vomit, but if you take a small boat, you will be afraid of death. I am not suitable for this job, but I can help with planning.Lanling, as the major shareholder of the maritime industry, actively advocated that the small and medium-sized shareholders below should take out [-]% of the profits of the voyage to invest in research and development and talent cultivation projects. The reason is acceptable, but I was forced to respond when I bargained unsuccessfully, so [-] Four thousand five hundred guan disappeared from my income...

Rich people are like me.I don't care about that at all, the big deal is that the foreign debt is indefinitely indefinitely, gracious.Dundun wandered back to the stable by himself, and I dressed up handsomely outside the door, took out all the medals and certificates issued by the court from the box, and walked sideways into the back house.

As always, Ying is making some kind of five-poison socks for the child, while the fourth child and the second daughter are complaining about each other.The mother-in-law is very diligent.I was discussing with a maid who would be the most cost-effective marriage.

He said hello and gave Ying a look.They secretly tugged on the second daughter a few times, and then the three sneaked into the house, "Sit down, second daughter, help the madam onto the kang, and make sure the back is padded." He hung the medal on his chest, and stood between the two of them. Madam shook her head, then took out a smaller wooden box from her bosom and opened it. Inside were several diamonds bought at a high price from Lanling, which were countless grades higher than the diamonds brought back last time. "Three for Ying and two for Second Daughter, no snatching is allowed."

As soon as he said no snatching was allowed, the two in the second daughter's hand disappeared without a trace, and Ying snatched them away.The second girl pursed her mouth and cried at me.

"Who are you? Snatch something from the baby." She climbed up the kang and wanted to get it back for the second daughter, but Ke Ying climbed up on the kang platform with her body on her back to keep people from approaching, and inspected the goods by the light from the window lattice.

"Husband is robbing someone outside?" Ying opened her mouth for a long time after inspecting the goods, her hands were tightly clutching the diamond until her knuckles turned white. "They are all rare things. They are better than the two bought by Mrs. Cheng's family. Our family can't afford them." Saying that they can't afford them, he quickly took the jewelry box and gave them to me the ones I bought last time. The defective products all fell in front of the second daughter, "It's all yours, don't cry, I only want five, you have a dozen!"

"Don't bully the baby, I'm going to be a mother soon, and I'll still be like this for a day." I was a little bit blind, and was about to mediate a few words, when the fourth child sneaked in, grabbed the defective gems in front of the second daughter, and ran away.This is a mess, the second daughter who has nothing wants to die with the fourth child, looking for weapons all over the world.

With a long sigh, I sat down on the kang weakly. The scene of chickens flying and dogs jumping made my brain twitch. I guessed the beginning, but I didn't guess the ending.Sighing helplessly, he said to himself: "10,000+ points, is the income of 10,000+ points still short of a few broken stones?"

The whole world became quiet. The fourth child took off his anti-riot hat, and the feather duster in the hands of the second daughter fell to the ground. Ying's tightly clenched knuckles slowly loosened, and the diamonds in her hand slipped down one by one.I took the opportunity to snatch two and put them in the hands of the second daughter, "Take it well, don't cry to me if you get robbed again."

The second girl nodded her head firmly, proudly flaunted the high-end goods in her hand to the fourth child, and leaned on my delicate body contentedly.

"What 10,000+ pennies?" Ying, as the manager of the family, really could afford to let it go. When she found out that she had higher pursuits, she didn't mind the gain or loss of the two gems at all. "Clarify, 10,000+ what?"

"Money," the charm of the diamond made the medal on my chest no one cares about, and I took it off and handed it to Ying in shame, "Look, the medal issued by the imperial court. I have calculated the income of the maritime merchants today. Our [-]-guan investment has returned thirty times the bonus this time, so do the math yourself!"

"Oh my god!" In order to protect the child, Ying lay down with her pregnant belly supported. They were indeed husband and wife, and they even reacted exactly the same.Helping Ying pinch all the people on her body, when Ran Ran woke up, she grabbed my arm and said in pain: "Husband, husband, I can't survive..."

"Then die after giving birth to a child."

I pinched her nose and lifted her up. Just as I was about to give her a pillow to rest on, Ying suddenly threw herself into my arms, refusing to let go, "I'm getting rich!"

"En," looking at the second daughter who crawled over, the fourth eldest in astonishment glanced at him, and affirmed, "I got rich!"
