Datang: What's wrong with my fief being a billion points larger?

Chapter 108: The Man Who Was Sold Still Helped Count Money

Li Yuanji was very melancholy. He didn't know how to describe his feelings at the moment as he had such a brother-in-law.

After listening to Li Yuanji's words, Yang Cheng stopped crying. To be more precise, he stopped making a fuss because he didn't cry at all, not a single tear. Compared to what Li Yuanji had done in the first place, he was far less prepared.

Yang Cheng's face immediately filled with smiles, and he continued to get closer to Li Yuanji.

"What are you going to assign me to do? Are you going to manage other states? Just assign me a task, brother-in-law. Really, I'm in good health. As long as you assign me a task, I will definitely complete it beautifully. I'm a man of my word.

Or you can let me take care of the housekeeping, but I still prefer to take care of the development. It will be so fulfilling when the development is successful. Brother-in-law, I'm suddenly excited. Come on, brother-in-law!"

Looking at Yang Cheng's constantly changing expression, Li Yuanji rubbed his forehead. He felt very headache and anxious at the moment. With such a temper, how could he govern a region?
Li Yuanji thought about it and decided to forget it. This girl was too erratic and he really couldn't let her go.

After thinking for a while, Li Yuanji gradually came up with an idea and immediately looked at Yang Cheng with a smile.

"Yuanlin, I do have something to entrust to you. As you know, I have salt here, as well as furniture made of rosewood and huanghuali wood. Your sister's textile mill is about to start production.

And all of these need to be sold to make money. Otherwise, there will be no money to buy other materials, and it will be difficult to develop here. Now Pei Xuanyan is in charge of business matters.

But this guy is not as eloquent as Yuanlin, and his ability is not as good as yours. I plan to let you be in charge of this caravan, responsible only for sales to various parts of the Tang Dynasty. As for Pei Xuanyan, I will let him go out to sea and develop trade relations with other overseas countries.

This business is very important to me and this place. It is related to the development of the entire Lingnan. The missing materials need to be purchased or exchanged from the Tang Dynasty. Therefore, as the person in charge of this caravan, you should also know its importance.

This is such an important matter, it concerns the future of Lingnan. I am going to let you take charge of it. What do you think? Do you have the confidence to do it well? "

Li Yuanji looked at Yang Cheng seriously. Although he exaggerated a little, the responsibility of this caravan was indeed very important. Only when the commodities had completely established a foundation in the Tang Dynasty would people from the Tang Dynasty come here to do business and develop the trade here.

As long as the trade deepens, he only needs to export some goods in exchange for the various materials needed for the development of Lingnan, because those who are in short supply here will definitely come here to sell them, and this place will become the main market for Tang Dynasty merchants and aristocratic families.

And his goods were not available in the Tang Dynasty, so those people had to come to him to buy. Once the trade between the two sides started, the economy here would develop and take off. With the economic takeoff, he would have more money to arm the army and strengthen its armaments.

The most important thing is that those people can make a lot of money by following him, and naturally a chain of interests will gradually be formed. Once the chain of interests is formed, no matter who becomes the emperor, he will have to think twice before touching him.

If they really want to attack him, both Li Jiancheng and Li Shimin will have to think carefully about whether they can bear the loss. In addition, after starting to expand overseas trade, Haikang and Leizhou will become the most prosperous trading places in the world, and merchants and goods from all over the world will gather here. By then, he will no longer be dependent on the Tang Dynasty.

Later, as long as Jiaozhou, that is, southern Vietnam, is developed, the materials in Lingnan will no longer be scarce, and that will be the time when Li Yuanji will no longer be constrained by the Tang Dynasty.

Li Yuanji came back to his senses and suddenly got a start. Wasn't he going to give Yang Cheng chicken soup? Why did he get himself into it?

Li Yuanji was still happy in his heart. He felt that the future he envisioned was very beautiful. However, Li Yuanji seemed to have never thought that once this place developed well, people in the Tang Dynasty would become jealous and might directly send troops to attack and occupy it.

The excited Li Yuanji was unaware of this hidden danger at all. No one had thought of this possibility because others did not know the future of Lingnan, and Li Yuanji, the only one who could grasp the direction, did not think about it at all.

Yang Cheng was listening to Li Yuanji's words, and he seemed extremely excited. Wei Ye was in charge of the affairs of the five states, and he was obviously valued. He also wanted to be valued by Li Yuanji. He just came here with the mentality of giving it a try. He didn't expect that it would really work.

Although he was doing business and was in charge of a caravan, the business of this caravan was related to the future of the entire Lingnan. It was equivalent to Li Yuanji putting the life and death of Lingnan in his hands. How could Yang Cheng not be excited?

At this time, his adrenaline was surging and his whole face began to turn red. The thing that Li Yuanji arranged for him to do was really too important.

In Yang Cheng's eyes, this was Li Yuanji's trust in him. This was his brother-in-law. Such an important matter was handed over to him. Yang Cheng was deeply moved for a moment, but he did not think that Li Yuanji was exaggerating to bluff him. In his eyes, he really believed what Li Yuanji said.

Yang Cheng's eyes were filled with tears for a moment. He had never felt such full trust before. This time he was not pretending, he was really about to cry.

"Brother-in-law, you are so good to me. Don't worry, since you asked me to do such an important thing, I will never let you down!
I still have some friends in Chang'an. At worst, I can ask my family members for help. I can also ask my uncle to help. I will definitely sell all the goods here and get enough supplies for my brother-in-law so that Lingnan can be better developed!"

Yang Cheng really has this determination and awareness. At worst, he doesn't care about this face. He knows how good these products are. As long as they become famous, there is no need to worry about selling them. And it is not difficult for him to become famous. With the Yang and Wei families, people from other families will definitely come here.

All the big families have come, and merchants from all over the Tang Dynasty will also come together. At that time, in his opinion, will he still worry about selling? At that time, he will worry about not having enough goods to share.

Li Yuanji looked at Yang Cheng with a gratified look, but in his heart he felt that young people like this were easy to fool. Just a few words from him made Yang Cheng look like he wanted to fight to the death right away.

He was even more worried. This should have been a happy thing, but when he thought of this man, he felt helpless. He was so easy to fool. He should not be fooled by Li Jiancheng and Li Shimin in the future. He was the kind of person who was still counting money for others after being sold?
