Chapter 249: Great Name, Great Money, Great Deeds

Chapter 249: Excellent Fame, Excellent Money and Excellent Deeds

Jiang Qingyue made some sense, but Liu Peng did not agree: "My young lady, sea routes are about making money, but we have to have goods. As for Dengzhou now, in addition to selling some fishing fruits, we have no goods on our hands, so we have to find a way to do it ourselves!"

Speaking of this, Gu Mengyu on the other side interrupted and said, "The tussal silkworms can really work hard. As long as there are hundreds or thousands of scoops of mountain silkworm cocoons, we don't have to look at Wang Daoyi and the others' faces."

Speaking of this, Jiang Haotian became a little curious: "The old prefect Wang doesn't look very good. What's wrong? This year, they praised Haikou on the silkworm cocoon. What's the final harvest?"

Recently, Jiang Haotian went to Liaodong, saying that he was going to Liaodong, but actually went around North Korea. His real purpose was to give the horse trade a pre-battle station. Therefore, he still didn't understand the situation of the Lai Silkworm Cocoon trade this year, and only knew that Wang Daoyi had encountered a lot of trouble.

Liu Peng didn't say much, and Gu Mengyu immediately said, "What else can you do? You make money and make a lot of money, but the problem is that this business is a bit hard, and the Heng Palace is so unwilling to let go, so the capital is also spent more."

Jiang Qingyue added: "The Heng Palace refused to let go, so they only bought 30% of the cocoons and raw silk in Qingzhou, and about 50% of the 50% of the 50% of the 50% of the 50% of the 50% of the 50% of the 50% of the 50% of the 50% of the 50% of the 50% of the 50% of the 50% of the 50% of the 50% of the 50% of the 50% of the 50% of the 50% of the 50% of the 50% of the 50% of the 50% of the 50% of the 50% of the 50% of the 50% of the 50% of the 50% of the 50% of the 50% of the 50% of the 50% of the 50% of the 50% of the 5

This result is in line with the distribution of the power of the Heng Palace. The Heng Palace is in Qingzhou and is the vassal of Laizhou, and Laizhou is their back garden. As for Dengzhou, they can only have a autumn wind, but for Wang Daoyi, it is difficult for them to accept this result.

As Gu Mengyu said, this round of spring silkworms made money and made a lot of money, but it was too hard to collect silkworms, and the unexpected cost was much more than expected. As a result, the profits made were far less than expected. Jiang Haotian immediately asked: "Is the Grand Prefect Wang ready to let go?"

For Longkou, the king's stopping is the worst ending. After all, Jiangnan merchant ships came because Longkou had raw silk. They transported expensive paper, brown sugar and other high-profit commodities, and transported a large amount of raw silk. Therefore, now Longkou simply pressed over Penglai Water City, which has a history of thousands of years.

And Shen Bin immediately gave a completely negative reply: "For such a big profit and such a big profit, the old prefect Wang certainly refused to let go. This year they had some more surprises. If they had experience next year, they would naturally be able to take down the raw silk from the entire Qingzhou."

Wang Daoyi and the Huizhou Chamber of Commerce behind him went to Qingzhou to collect silk, which was naturally a tiger's mouth to seize food. This year's spring silkworms, whether it was a cocoon or raw silk, whether it was a mulberry silkworm or a tussal silkworm, Wang Daoyi only collected at most 30%, and the big head still fell into the hands of the Heng Palace.

Among the three eastern prefectures, Qingzhou is the most important place for raw silk production. Whether it is tussert silkworms or mulberry silkworms, Qingzhou accounts for almost half of the production, and the proportion of tussert silkworms is even higher. In this case, no matter how difficult things are, it is still necessary to handle them. It is really true that there is a tiger in the mountain and goes to the tiger's mouth.

Jiang Haotian didn't understand: "Then why did their face look so ugly?"

Liu Peng immediately replied: "Because they felt that they had suffered a loss in Qingzhou this year, even died, because they did not have a force in their hands, so I would like to take the patrol team to Qingzhou."

The patrol team has now expanded to a scale of hundreds of people, and has also raised a small-scale horse team. It can be said to be the top civilian force in Dengzhou Prefecture. On the one hand, the patrol team has a gray legal identity, and on the other hand, it is Liu Peng's private force. There is no need to worry too much about dispatching troops, and it is not as worried as calling camp soldiers, guards, and strong squads. Once something happens, it will not end.

Therefore, Wang Daoyi had invited Liu Peng to Qingzhou Prefecture for a trip, and Jiang Haotian had already understood that although Liu Peng could accept the invitation, the problem was that at least dozens of brothers and so many military horses could not work for Wang Daoyi for free. Food, clothing, housing, housing, transportation, food, food, food, food, food, food, food, food, food, food, and food, all must be provided one by one. This expense was astonishingly large.

Jiang Qingyue felt very direct: "Young Master Liu led the team to Qingzhou Prefecture this time. I am afraid that the remaining profits of the spring silkworms will be filled in half!"

Jiang Haotian understood why Wang Daoyi was a little uncomfortable during this period, but he had another unexpected expense. He immediately said, "Apeng, I will go to Qingzhou Prefecture with you. Anyway, this time I went to North Korea, I have already explored the sea route. If I were bolder, we can now go directly to Jeju or even go to the right horse!"

Liu Peng nodded: "Then I'm thankful for my father-in-law! I'm going to take all the horse team out and practice hard."

Speaking of the horse team, Jiang Qingyue couldn't help but smile bitterly: "The horse team is too young now, and it may not be useful to go to Qingzhou. Be careful."

Speaking of which, it was the trouble caused by the boss Jin Baiwan. Speaking of which, Jin Baiwan's cowhide was blown up in the matter of transporting salt, and he lacked confidence in Liu Peng in his horse trading. However, this Jin Baiwan was indeed a little capable. Not long after Liu Peng got engaged, he had transported nearly a hundred good horses from Liaodong, all of which were first-class outsiders. Liu Peng fell in love with it at a glance.

There were nearly a hundred good horses, and the selling price was naturally not too low. Liu Peng gritted his teeth and prepared to take them all at once. Jin Baiwan refused to agree. He felt that his horse was staying at sea for several days and could not help but feel a little tired. He couldn't sell it for a good price. He had to take good care of his horse in his horse gallery.

As a result, problems arose as soon as they were recuperating. Although everyone knew that this group of good horses was decided by Liu Peng, the new Prime Minister Tao also knew that there were such a group of good horses. Although Prime Minister Tao was from Jiaxing, he also liked the famous horses, fragrant carriages, and furious horses and clothes, so he immediately sent someone to buy them at a high price.

As a result, Liu Peng asked for so many things, and nearly a hundred good horses were bought by Tao Gongfu, leaving only fifteen horses for Liu Peng. As a result, the horse team that Liu Peng and Jiang Qingyue had only one framework for the idea, and the remaining 15 horses, whether in Liu Peng's eyes or Jiang Qingyue's eyes, were all an evaluation: "Not good enough!"

It is indeed a good horse, but it is not good enough. It is still a little far from what Liu Peng and Jiang Qingyue expected, and the number is not enough, and it wasted time and money. Liu Peng can be said to be full of evil spirits towards Jin Baiwan, but he also knows that this matter has nothing to do with Master Tao, but it has nothing to do with Jin Baiwan.

After just this trouble, Liu Peng and Gu Mengyu carefully prepared saddles, harnesses, sabers and horseshoes could only be idle in the warehouse, and could only form a very small horse team. However, no matter how much it was to complain, after a month, Liu Peng realized how much it cost to raise a horse team.

Although Longkou would not go bankrupt, the expenditure was really amazing. Fortunately, Wang Daoyi's request for help solved Liu Peng's urgent need and even gave Liu Peng a chance to train troops. However, Liu Peng would always secretly complain about Jin Baiwan in his heart.

When talking about the horse team, Chen Bin suddenly said: "This time I went to see Master Tao, Master Tao wanted us to pay the money for buying horses."

Liu Peng was shocked and asked, "Didn't the mansion pay the money for buying horses long ago?"

Liu Peng was very impressed by this incident, so it was the Prime Minister Tao who took action to steal the horse, so Liu Peng did not dare and could not object. He even had to help pick up the horses with the envoy sent by the Prime Minister Tao. In the end, the Prime Minister Tao sent someone to send a thousand taels of silver to pay the money for the horses in one lump sum.

Chen Bin immediately replied: "The money has been paid, but the minister in the mansion does not have such a name. Now the prefect Tao just uses the minister's money to equip the money, and he has to find a sucker to pay for him."

One thousand taels of silver is really not a small number. Whether it was Liu Peng or Jiang Qingyue, his expression became solemn, but Gu Mengyu said bluntly: "At that time, no matter how many people came to fight for horses, the price was at least 10% higher. Now, after robbing the horse, we asked us to pay the money for the horses, but for this matter, we wasted at least 300 taels of silver."

Speaking of the idle harnesses, Gu Mengyu didn't call him a single person: "Also, Huang Daotai agreed to the matter of Liu Peng's promotion to the head of the class before leaving, but also helped him do it in the mansion. Now, three months have passed, and this matter is still stuck in the mansion."

Speaking of which, Liu Peng did not attach great importance to the name of this team leader. After all, he now has a formal official position like Yang Guangwen, but Tao Lang has been stuck in his hands forever, which really made Liu Peng a little unhappy.

But Liu Peng would not express such emotions. He immediately said, "Let's talk about the matter later. Two father-in-law, please tell me, what is our Tao Master alone?"

In the past three months, he had met Tao Langxian, the prefect, in public several times, and even said a word or two, but there was no formal contact between the two.

Chen Bin also gave an answer: "I think this Tao Master is not simple. He is a very famous person, very good money, and very good achievements!"

Speaking of this evaluation, Liu Peng felt that it was a bit troublesome. An official was very famous and easy to handle. It was easy to handle money and was easy to handle political achievements. Even if he was famous, he liked money and he liked to carry out political achievements projects, it was not a troublesome. However, Chen Bin's evaluation was "excellent reputation, excellent money and excellent achievements", and Liu Peng felt it was a bit difficult.
