In a yard, Yuwen Wen was having a discussion with several merchants in Huangzhou in the lobby. In recent days, the "trade delegation" in Huangzhou was so busy in Panyu that it was not touching the ground. Now it is time to report to the boss behind the scenes. Tianlai Novel

The merchants in Huangzhou sold goods to Lingnan and the cave owners, and the second priority was to do business with foreign merchants stranded in Panyu. The various rare treasures in the hands of the other party can be sold to Shannan or further away, and can make huge profits.

However, Yuwen Wen was more concerned about another thing. The shopkeeper Wang Yue took a piece of paper and introduced him to the brief description of a trade route he had just sorted out.

This trade route is another wealth path for merchants in the Huangzhou General Administration and even the surrounding areas to make a lot of money. It is also a killer weapon to gather the hearts of big families from all over the world and make them stand by Yuwen Wen.

According to locals, this road to wealth originated in Panyu and was called "Tonghaiyi Road".

"From Panyu sailing to the southeast, 200 miles to Tuen Mun Mountain, then sailing to the west, and in the second day, it reaches Kyushu Stone..."

"There are two more days south to Xiangshi. The trip to Zanbulao Mountain is two hundred miles east of the kingdom."

"Traveling to Lingshan for two days in the south. Another day, we went to the country of Mendu. Another day, we went to the country of Guza. Another half day, we went to the continent of Bentuolang."

"I've traveled for another two days and arrived at Junbu Nong Mountain. Here you can get the 'Jengren'."

"In another five days, we went to Haiji. The foreigners called it "Zhi". A hundred miles north and south, the north bank was Luoyue Kingdom, and the south bank was Buddha's country. The Buddha's country traveled east for four or five days, and arrived at Heling Kingdom, the largest in the southern central continent."

"I went west to Ji and arrived at the Kingdom of Gegesengzhi in three days. On the different islands in the northwest corner of Buddha's passing, most of the people in the country were cruel, and those who rode the ship feared it. On the north bank there was a Luo Kingdom and a Luosizegegululu Kingdom."

"There is another journey from Gege monk to Sheng Dengzhou for only four or five days. He traveled to Sheng Dengzhou for another five days. He traveled to Polu Kingdom for another six days. He traveled to Kalanzhou for another four days. He traveled to Shizi Kingdom, and the north coast is a hundred miles from the south Tianzhu shore."

"At the Wula Kingdom, it is the Flila River in the Persian Kingdom, and it enters the sea south. A small boat goes up two days to the Moluo Kingdom, and it is a major town in the big food. It travels 6 miles northwest and reaches the Fuda City, where the capital of the Maomen King."

Hearing this, Yuwen Wen suddenly interrupted: "The foreigners call the Strait of "Qi" and is also called "Malacca". The so-called "Fuda City" is also called "Baghda"."

"The so-called 'Lion Kingdom', also known as 'Ceylon', is hanged in the ocean, and is rich in various gems. These gems are everywhere in Ceylon Kingdom and are cheap. Once transported back to the Central Plains, the price can be increased by hundreds of times!"

Yuwen Wen was afraid that everyone would not understand the situation, so he quoted the scriptures: "During the Jin Dynasty, Monk Faxian walked west to Tianzhu and sought Dharma. He took a foreign merchant ship to the Central Plains by sea, and stopped in the Lion Kingdom in the middle."

"What does this mean? It means that the Fan merchants have already had a mature route from the extreme west to Panyu. If this route from Monk Faxian returns to the Central Plains, if it goes well, the whole journey will be about 80 days..."

"Have you ever thought about where to go from Xiyang Energy in more than 80 days? The caravan is loaded with cargo and goes to Yecheng with 6 routes. It takes nearly 70 days to go back and forth. Although it is very profitable, compared with the sea trade... What do you have in Panyu these days?"

Faced with this question, Wang Yue took the lead in answering: "King, Guangzhou has a mountain and sea, and it is a treasure that can be found in many lifetimes."

Li Fangze answered more bluntly: "King, the benefits of sea trade are huge, we... are really frogs in the well."

The other bosses and shopkeepers nodded silently and agreed to Li Fang's statement. This is also their voice. These days they have been "grouping" to do business with the foreign merchants in Panyu, which is really eye-opening.

They all know that all kinds of rare treasures and various overseas incense medicines can make a lot of money by selling them once they are sold, and the price of these goods in Huangzhou is still raised by middlemen.

Now in Panyu, they traded directly with the foreign merchants who arrived in the Central Plains across the ocean, and they received the initial "purchase price". Even if they were shipped back to Xiyang, they would immediately change their hands, and the profit would make people think of it.

"The well frog cannot speak to the sea, and the summer insect cannot speak to the ice." Yuwen Wen summarized, "Don't think that I asked you to come to Panyu to chat and relieve your boredom. Only by seeing it with your own eyes can you know what a narrow vision is!"

"If you organize a fleet to travel abroad, it will take a year or two to go back and forth. If you encounter wind and waves in the middle, you may lose both people and money. But why are the foreign merchants willing to take such a huge risk and cross the ocean to do business?"

"That's because of huge profits! The huge profits in sea trade are calculated at several times or even dozens of times. A sea ship can carry a cargo of tens of thousands of hu. It takes a huge risk and can earn enough wealth for a year to spend. Who can't be moved?"

"I know that some people think that trading is enough to achieve Yecheng, but now, do you think it is enough? If the size of the workshop is to do maritime trade, how many sea boats can your goods fill?"

"If you transport the hot-selling goods from Huangzhou to Panyu and sell them to Fans, have you ever thought that the production capacity of your own workshops is too low? Have you ever thought that there are insufficient workers?"

Everyone here nodded silently. King Xiyang was right. When he looked at the Yangtze River in Xiyang, he thought it was watery. But when he came to Panyu and saw the sea, he realized what was endless.

The goods they carefully prepared were very popular with Fans in Panyu. Transparent glass products, low-quality and low-priced colorful cloths and white porcelain were all sold out.

What were exchanged for were ivory, rhinoceros horn, tortoiseshell, coral, pearls, and various overseas incense medicines, and people.

The black-shaped "后" has very white teeth and eyes, and the face is black like lacquer, and is all shiny. It is also called "Kunlun Slave". This kind of strange "后" has already been sold to Yelang and other places along the Yushui River, and the price has increased several times.

Such "goods" are rare in Shannan, Guanzhong, and Henan. If you take the "Guanren" there, you can imagine how strong the purchases of the powerful and noble families in various places will be.

Not to mention the uncommon oracle, the exotic style can make rich men warm in their lower abdomen and they can't help but pay to buy it back and try it out.

Hu Ji is not uncommon in Chang'an, Bingzhou, Jinyang, Hebei, and Jiankang in Jiangnan, but in Shannan, Henan and other places, there are some "strange goods" that can be found in Shannan, Henan, and other places, so it will also be a hot-selling "goods".

The merchants in the Huangzhou General Administration have never seen such an amazing opportunity to make money before them. It is not an exaggeration to describe it as easy to get it. The only problem is that their production capacity is insufficient.

There must be some behind the merchants who can do big business. They are either agents of wealthy families in various places, or they are the heads of the family. Some relatives have become officials. It is not difficult to organize personnel to increase their production capacity, but now when they come to Panyu and come into contact with Haima, they realize that it is far from enough.

This is no longer a problem of eating alone. You have to work with others to have sufficient supply and eat up huge profits. Therefore, the urgent problem is to attract people to join.

Of course, the families in various parts of Shannan who had been married and had to join the old family. The Lingnan Lishang and the cave owners who had just surrendered to the court not long ago were also the best choice.

When doing business, Yuwen Wen only sets the general direction, and naturally does not care about specific matters. Wang Yue set up a "Huangzhou Product Sales Conference" a few days ago and sets a preliminary intention with all the leaders to acquire Shimi in large quantities. This is the beginning of cooperation between the two parties.

"Lingnan stone honey has existed since ancient times, but it has a black and red color and is of poor quality. The quality of Tianzhu stone honey is slightly better. It is red in color and is called brown sugar. The refined stone honey in Huangzhou is fine white as frost. The price of this white sugar can be several times higher!"

"You all know the specific production process. I will not repeat it. The raw material for making white sugar is stone honey. So everyone should negotiate with you and try to get more stone honey. After purification and decolorization, it is a hot item in the eyes of merchants!"

"I will appease the prefectures and counties in Lingnan soon. You will select a few representatives, follow me, and negotiate with one place, and seize the market before others can react."

"The road from Nanchang to Shixing, whether it is water or 6th route, will sooner or later be rectified and widened. You will discuss with the local big and powerful people in Jiangzhou to discuss how to do it better. From Nanchang to Shixing and then to Panyu, the road must be smooth."

"Also, we must also hurry up and let the tea merchants in Jiangzhou participate appropriately. If you have money, everyone will make money together and attract more people to join the business. Only then can the transaction be stable and everyone can make more money by relying on Tonghaiyi Road."

"We are not able to organize fleets to go to the Lion Kingdom, India, and even Persia to do business, but we can expand our share in Panyu's maritime trade, using glass products, white porcelain, tea, sugar and other products as a means of price reduction, so that the foreign merchants can sell us foreign treasures at preferential prices!"
