Princess of the auxiliary country

Chapter 316; Trade Proposal

Besides, the money she earned from the hot spring resort was not her fault alone.

Not only does this have to be allocated to her mother, the Fang family, and the eldest sister's family.

"The nobles are indeed rich, otherwise I wouldn't have had a headache with them for so many years."

The nobles had money, food, and people, but that was a serious problem for Emperor Zhaowu.

"You have money, but you are a little too stupid to spend more than 300,000 yuan to buy a pile of sand."

Huo Junyao didn't want to talk about matters in these countries, so she changed the topic directly.

Sure enough, upon hearing her words, the people nearby turned to look at her in astonishment.

At this time, Fang Zhilan also laughed out loud and said, "I wonder if the old patriarch of the Cui family will be angry to death when he knows the truth."

"Brother and sister, what do you mean by this? What kind of sand?"

Princess Qingyang asked curiously.

"Sister, don't you know that this glass can be made manually, but the raw materials are very cheap, and you can even see them everywhere."

They already know that colored glaze can be made artificially. Didn't Huo Junyao just say that?

"You wouldn't say that the raw material of this glass is sand, right?"

Princess Qingyang's eyes widened.

"It is indeed sand. It only needs to be violently calcined with fire to make it."

"In fact, most of the colored glazes you have seen before were found by people from abroad near some volcanoes."

"It is a product that accidentally appears after a volcanic eruption when underground magma encounters some sand that can be used to make glass. So usually the glass you see has impurities or is turbid."

"After all, it was formed naturally, and the reason why mine is pure is because it was made through human intervention and the impurities were removed. Naturally, it looks different."

Hearing what she said so eloquently, everyone believed the fact that the glass was made from sand.

Huo Jingzhi and others were quite shocked, but Emperor Zhaowu's face was indeed very ugly.

Because he also liked this stuff very much, when some foreign envoys came to pay tribute in the past, he would be very happy when he saw these glazed treasures and rewarded many things as gifts in return.

I'm afraid those guys were laughing at him for being a fool on the way back after getting the things, right?
"It's absolutely disgusting, those bastards dare to bully and tease me like this."

His sudden anger made everyone in the room tremble.

Empress Shen reacted quickly and quickly comforted her, "Your Majesty, please calm down."

Emperor Zhaowu also came back to his senses in an instant, looked around, and remembered where he was at this time, and quickly calmed down his momentum and the anger on his face.

"Hey, me"

"Your Majesty, I can understand your thoughts. Isn't this just to avenge you?"

Then Huo Junyao told her plan, and a quarter of an hour later, everyone looked at her in shock.

"You mean, let me form a team of Hu merchants in private, and then use these Hu merchants to send some of our Yu Dynasty's porcelain and tea, as well as your colored glaze, to be sold abroad?" Emperor Zhaowu frowned a little. , how can such good things be sold abroad and used by those barbarians?
It's just a waste of money.

"Yes, after all, our area is rich in porcelain and tea. These things may seem precious, but in the end, that's all."

"Let's not talk about porcelain. Everyone knows what the raw materials are. Tea is good or not, but this thing is nothing compared to food."

"Your Majesty, think about it, send these things abroad and exchange them for money from people abroad, or exchange them for cattle, horses and sheep. These things are more affordable and useful than porcelain and tea, right?"

"Besides, the raw material for my glass is sand, and it's not too difficult to make. Let's just say this tea set. According to the price, we don't say it will sell for tens or millions of guan, let's just say a set of 100,000 guan. Someone wants it. Bar?"

As soon as she said this, several people around her nodded.

"If I had been given a set of tea sets like this for 100,000 guan before I knew the raw materials of this thing, I would also be very moved."

Huo Jingzhi was the first to express his inner thoughts.

Several other people also nodded.

"That's right. Let's make a hundred and eighty sets and sell them as if they were a set of 100,000 guan. Even if it's a set of 10,000 guan, we'll make a lot of money."

"Your Majesty, think about it, we can return this huge amount of money from abroad with just some sand. While enriching our own country, can we also squeeze the wealth of other countries?"

"Don't talk about far away, let's talk about the Turks. Where do they get so much copper coins and silver?"

"If they don't have these, what should they do if they want to buy? They can only use cattle, horses and sheep as collateral."

"Why doesn't it take several months for a sheep to take shape? Cows and horses take even more time, and aren't these their biggest rations?"

"With some sand, we can return large numbers of cattle, horses and sheep from their hands. We will enrich ourselves and reduce their wealth and food."

"When we have money, the resources of soldiers on the border will increase accordingly. Those Turks have no food. Even if they want to rob it, there will not be enough to support them in long-term operations. We can say that we are waiting for work."

"If they go south a few times, I'm afraid they will be almost exhausted first. The people on the grasslands are also people. If they don't have food, riots will occur."

As she talked more and more, Emperor Zhaowu and Huo Jingzhi had more things on their minds.

This is indeed a good method. Just through trade, you can plunder other resources to strengthen yourself. With these resources, the national power will also increase.

"One more thing, these Hu businessmen are our people. They travel abroad all year round. We can learn from them about any troubles. We can take precautions in advance, right?"

"As for how to make these Hu businessmen work for us, I believe the emperor has a way."

At this time, Emperor Zhaowu's eyes lit up. He was also someone who had led troops to fight in wars and knew the importance of intelligence. If these Hu merchants could use it well, they would definitely be a good intelligence collector.

Moreover, these Hu businessmen also admired the culture of the Yu Dynasty and wanted to live here for a long time. As long as he gave these people certain promises, it would be easy to control these Hu businessmen.

And these people, who travel around the world all year round, know the situation in each country best. Not only can they make money with them, but they can also bring them information. This is indeed a good strategy.

"The method is very good, but these things are so exquisite and exquisite, and they are sold to foreigners like this. I feel really uncomfortable."

Looking at the tea set in the box, Emperor Zhaowu was still a little reluctant to part with it.

Hearing this, Huo Junyao was speechless.
