When Lu Ding and the others came in, Luo Xin was slightly stunned, because not only the five great aristocratic families came, but also some medium-sized patriarchs, those with some status in Daming Maritime Trade came.

Could it be that something big happened?
"Who are you?" After everyone was seated, Luo Xin asked a little puzzled.

"My lord." Lu Ding said with a smile on his face, "I heard that another merchant from the feudal kingdom has come?"

Luo Xin's mood was relieved, it seems that they made a lot of money from the sea trade last time, this time they saw the merchants from the feudal kingdom arriving again, and they all became anxious.It doesn't matter what happened, so a smile appeared on Luo Xin's face and said:

"How many of you old men can still hide these things?"

Lu Ding and the others laughed, and Luo Xin said again: "Do you guys have any insights?"

Lu Ding said, "Sir, can we start preparing the second batch of goods?"

Luo Xin began to ponder again. It stands to reason that Luo Xin also hoped to do business with as few merchants as possible, and gradually formed a set of rules and regulations. Get out and relax.

Moreover……

Sooner or later, Luo Xin will get out of Daming Maritime Trade, and he will also get out of Shibo Department.His ambition is not in Shibo, he doesn't want to be a businessman who only makes money, and he doesn't want to get a share of Shibo's profits.As long as Luo Sheng manages Taiwan well, he will naturally get a share of the pie from Daming.

However, now he is not only thinking about the business of Shibosi, he is also thinking about snatching Wang Zhi's supplies from Taiwan. If a few merchants from the vassal states come, they will do a few businesses. Once the time comes, Luo Sheng and the others will come alone , it was very easy to be noticed by Mao Haifeng.Only when there are more and more merchants can Luo Xin be able to fish in troubled waters. On his territory, when the merchants from the feudal kingdom gather at the port, Luo Xin has many ways to unload the goods on Luo Sheng's ship.So, Luo Xin pondered for a moment and said:

"Don't worry, I'll let the merchants of the vassal states make a list of the materials they want to sell and the materials they need to buy, and then everyone will distribute them according to the shares on these lists. If there are few people, you can stay still for a while, and wait for the follow-up merchants from the vassal state to arrive, and the allocated places have accumulated to the extent that they can be raised, and go to raise funds, and then we will trade with the vassal state merchants together."

The five major families frowned slightly, because their shares must be enough, so they have to wait, waiting for those small and medium families to save enough shares, isn't this squeezing funds?
But those medium-sized Patriarchs were extremely happy, and their affection for Luo Xin was growing steadily.Luo Xin saw the expressions of the five great families, and thought for a while. This situation will not last long. He believes that it will not be long before Wang Zhi and Xu Hai will decide the winner. At that time, Luo Sheng will not If he snatches Wang Zhi's stuff again, naturally he doesn't have to hide it.So, with a smile on his face, he said:
"This situation won't be too long. After we do business with the feudal kingdom a few more times and basically understand what the merchants of the feudal kingdom need, we can stockpile some goods for a long time. When they come, we can trade them immediately. We At the start-up stage of Daming Maritime Trade, everything is crossing the river by feeling the stones, so let’s put down our temper and take our time.”

When everyone heard it, it was true that this was the case.Although the five aristocratic families wanted to tell Luo Xin what the merchants of the feudal kingdom needed, they all knew that we had been smuggling with them for many years.

But it's hard to say that.

What's more, they also understand Luo Xin, the more confident and capable a person like Luo Xin is, the more headstrong he will be.They wanted to understand everything by themselves, but they told Luo Xin that it was useless.Anyway, as Luo Xin said, it requires a process of familiarization, and with Luo Xin's wisdom, it will not take a few times.

So they all nodded and left the Shibo Department, waiting for news from Luo Xin.

Luo Xin here just wanted to go back to the second hall after they left, when He Nian came forward and said:
"My lord, I'll go to the merchants of the feudal kingdom and ask them to pull out the list of needs and sales?"

Luo Xin waved his hand and said, "No need, just wait for them to come to us. You just need to be watched by the government officials. If anyone dares to smuggle, they will be arrested and the goods will be confiscated."

"No way?" He Nian said in surprise, "There are still smugglers nowadays?"

"It's hard to say, anyway, pay more attention."

"Yes!"

Another two days passed, and finally the businessmen from the vassal states came together to meet Luo Xin.Luo Xin also met them. It seems that in the past two days, those merchants from the vassal state also investigated the transaction between Luo Xin and the first wave of vassal state merchants, and took the initiative to hand over the list of their needs and sales to Luo Xin. , and Luo Xin also gave them the price list, the two sides looked at it, and both nodded, very simply.

Then Luo Xin was worried about the shareholders of Daming Maritime Trade, and handed over the list to them, and asked them to allocate shares. Those with more quotas began to raise goods, and those with less quotas could also jointly raise goods, or wait first.

As time passed day by day, Luo Xin began to feel a little anxious.If the fleet from Luo Sheng's side doesn't come again, he won't be able to hold back. At this time, not only are the five aristocratic families in a hurry to make a deal, but the merchants from the vassal states even come to the Shipbuilding Department several times a day.

this day.

Luo Xinzheng was a little anxious and decided to wait another two days.Within two days, if the people from Luo Sheng's side have not arrived, he is ready to let Daming Haimao trade with merchants from the feudal kingdom.

He is anxious here, and Mao Haifeng is equally anxious.He got the list of goods on the ship of the merchants of the Fan Kingdom, and there was no goods that were robbed on their island. He also pretended to be a merchant of Ming Dynasty and sneaked on the ship to see the goods, but he also did not see the goods that were robbed on his own island. thing.

Mao Haifeng stood on the pier, looking at the densely packed ships, and thought to himself: "Could it be that the things on our island were snatched by the pirates of the vassal state? They directly shipped them back to the vassal state?"

At this moment, a densely packed ship appeared in his field of vision, approaching the pier from the sea.His spirit was lifted, his eyes flickered and he looked towards the ships.

When the boats docked, they saw two people getting off the boat, leading their horses to the pier, getting on their horses, and heading towards Hangzhou City.

Mao Haifeng thought for a while, then walked towards the pier.These days, he has gotten to know the people on the pier, and greeted them all the way, all the way to the big ship that had just docked, and cupped his hands at the people on board:
"Where did the brothers on the ship come from?"

"Silla!" A man speaking blunt Chinese said with a smile.

"I'm a businessman from Daming. I don't know what goods you have brought this time. Can you let me go up and have a look? If there are goods I need, I will pack them all."

"This will have to wait for our general to come back." The Silla man replied stiffly.

Mao Haifeng nodded and said, "Okay, then I'll come back tomorrow."

City ship division.

Luo Xin was sitting in the back garden, lying on his back on a deck chair, while Wang Cuiqiao stood behind him and pressed his head for him.Looking down at Luo Xin's slightly sad face, Wang Cuiqiao wanted to ask each other several times, but she was afraid of being abrupt, so she closed her mouth again.

And at this moment, footsteps came from behind.Wang Cuiqiao couldn't help but looked back, and saw three people walking towards this side.One is Lu Daqing, the other is Liang Yu, and the last one is wearing a bamboo hat, so he cannot see his face clearly.Wang Cuiqiao couldn't help shrinking her eyes. At this time, she already knew that Liang Yu was a force on the sea that Luo Xin had said, but she didn't know how strong this force was and where it was hiding in the sea.

"Master Hou!"

Hearing Lu Daqing's voice, Luo Xin slightly opened his eyes, and his eyes lit up. He saw Liang Yu, and then saw the man wearing the bamboo hat. Yuhe said to the man wearing the bamboo hat:

"Let's go to the study."

Watching the three of Luo Xin enter the study, Wang Cuiqiao thought for a while, then left in a hurry.After a while, he came to the door of the study with a pot of tea in his hands, but he saw Lu Daqing standing outside. Seeing her coming, he smiled and said:

"give it to me."

Seeing Lu Daqing's smiling but firm expression, Wang Cuiqiao sighed in his heart, handed the tray to Lu Daqing, turned and left.

Lu Daqing brought the tea in, then quickly backed out and stood at the door.

Inside the study.

The person wearing the bamboo hat is obviously Luo Sheng, Luo Xin looked at Luo Sheng excitedly and said:
"Cousin, are you back from the grassland?"

"En!" Luo Sheng also nodded excitedly.

"How about my elder brother? And Zhong Jin..."

"Everything is very good..."

Luo Sheng then told Luo Xin what happened on the grassland in detail, and then took out two letters from his bosom and handed them to Luo Xin.Luo Xin's eyes fell on two envelopes, one was from Luo Qing and the other was from Zhong Jinhatun.

Luo Xin put Zhong Jinhatun's letter into his bosom, then opened the elder brother's letter and read it.After he read the letter, a happy smile appeared on his face. The development of the grassland was very smooth, and he promised in his heart.

three years.

It only takes three years for Luo Qing to unify the grassland.

Luo Xin put away the letter, thought for a while, and felt that it was really possible for the elder brother to unify the grassland in three years.The eldest brother has the constant support from Lu Tingjiang from Ming Dynasty, even the equipment is several times better than other tribes in the grassland. When the time comes, they will be fighting and pulling, maybe it will not take three years.

Putting the big brother's affairs aside, he looked at Luo Sheng and said, "Uncle, are you okay?"

"Very good!" Luo Sheng said with a smile, "Father was very happy in Taiwan and robbed Wang Zhi's two islands in a row. When I left Taiwan and came here, I went out with a sea boat again. My father said to me If he had known that being at sea would be so enjoyable, he would not be in the capital long ago."

"Hahaha..." The three people in the study laughed happily.

"Wang Zhi didn't notice you?" Luo Xin asked with concern.

"No!" Luo Sheng smiled happily, "I'm afraid Wang Zhi is almost pissed off now."

Luo Xin also said with a smile: "Wang Zhi sent Mao Haifeng here. He probably suspected that the Daming Navy had attacked his island. But now it has been confirmed that it was not the Daming Navy, so he came to my place and wandered around the pier every day. , I also want to go to the list of goods traded by the feudal kingdom from me. I want to find clues from the transaction."

Both Luo Sheng and Liang Yu's expressions changed, but Luo Xin smiled and said, "It's okay, I've already made arrangements."

After the words fell, he explained his arrangement again.After hearing this, Luo Sheng nodded and said: "There is no problem this time, but if we keep doing this, we will inevitably expose our flaws. Only Qianri is a thief, how can there be a thief the day before yesterday?"

"Yes!" Luo Xin rubbed his eyebrows and said, "I hope Wang Zhi and Xu Hai can decide the winner as soon as possible."

"That's not good either!" Luo Sheng also frowned and said, "Father said, depending on the situation, Xu Hai is not Wang Zhi's opponent. If Wang Zhi can quickly destroy Xu Hai, Xin Wulang and others, and gather Xu Hai The people and boats of Hai and Xin Wulang, don’t look at how many islands he lost, he got the people and boats of Xu Hai and Xin Wulang, and his strength will exceed the original. In this way, Taiwan is not optimistic. It is impossible for Taiwan to hide for a lifetime , as you said, Brother Xin, we want to operate Taiwan as a transit point for the vassal state to go to Ming Dynasty. It would be good for Hai and the others to lose both sides. If there is a chance, we might as well take Wang Zhi’s power. With Wang Zhi’s years of management, once we occupy the 36 islands, our strength will improve by leaps and bounds. If we manage well for a few years, I will have Confidence will take the whole of Japan, and then Silla and North Korea."

"I think so too!" Luo Xin sighed and said, "But Taiwan's forces are not allowed to appear on the sea now, and our strength is not enough. Once the upright one appears, Wang Zhi will definitely be sure that we attacked his island .And Xu Hai and Xin Wulang will also suspect that we have robbed their ship. Maybe the two of them will let go of their previous suspicions and join forces to attack Taiwan. At that time, it will be bad.”

"No, think of a way!" Luo Sheng looked at Luo Xin expectantly.

Luo Xin frowned and pondered for a while, then shook his head and said, "Let's not talk about that, let's talk about the situation in Taiwan."

"The situation in Taiwan is very good. This time I brought back a large number of war horses, cattle and sheep from my younger brother. With the cattle, the speed of reclaiming farmland has increased several times. With war horses, the natives in the plains will be in the shortest time. Conquered by us. It's just..."

"Just what?"

There was a trace of doubt on Luo Sheng's face: "Xindi, you have made a rule, and now there are voices of opposition."

Luo Xin's eyes flashed: "But the tax exemption policy for scholars is abolished?"

"Yes!" Luo Sheng nodded in embarrassment and said, "Brother Xin, those scholars have indeed contributed a lot to the construction of Taiwan, and Taiwan's various constructions cannot be separated from them.

Moreover……

This is the case in Ming Dynasty now, why should we change?Wouldn't it be good to continue Daming's policy? "
