Just as the port was busy construction, a team of carriages stopped outside. Seven or eight middle-aged people with extraordinary behavior each walked off the carriage.

One of the fat men was particularly eye-catching. When this guy got off the car, he also needed to put two short stools under the car, otherwise he would not be able to move his legs at all.

As the fat man got off the car, an elderly man came over and said, "Shopkeeper Wu! I have gained weight recently, so I must have made a lot of money!"

Manager Wu wiped the sweat from his forehead, gasped and said, "Ma Zhangguan is joking, he just makes a living by making a living!"

When Manager Ma was unhappy when he heard this, he spoke, "Who doesn't know that Manager Wu got the handwritten letter from His Majesty and passed on the imperial edict. The business is very good. I guess the money will be earned back long ago!"

As soon as these words were said, they immediately resonated with the people around them, and the eyes of Fatty Wu looked at Fatty Wu were full of jealousy.

"Everyone! We are not here to talk about the handwritten letters of Your Majesty. Everyone has heard of that person's skills. It must be a big deal to make money. Let's go in quickly!" Fatty Wu said a few words, and then shut up and walked into the port.

After showing the invitation, several people walked into the port, and their eyes were no longer enough. On the boat platform on the shore, there were twenty giant ships and keels parked on ten dry docks.

Even the largest lucky ship is much inferior to these unfinished giant ship keels. Many craftsmen are busy on the boat platform and install parts on it.

A businessman opened his mouth wide in surprise and said in surprise: "Oh my God! The Longjiang Shipyard, which built the treasure ships, was just like this!"

His words caused others to nod, and the manager who led them to walk ahead said proudly: "Not only are the best craftsmen in Longjiang Shipyard here, but I'm afraid all the best craftsmen in the Ming Dynasty are here. Your Majesty personally issued an order, who dares not come?"

When they heard that it was His Majesty’s personal order, the eyes of several merchants suddenly lit up. They originally thought that this time was just that person’s idea, but it seemed that it was really a big business.

Not long after, several people came to a room. After they sat down, they were attracted by the various ship models placed in the room.

The design is different from the Ming Dynasty, and the unique ship shape makes several merchants feel novel.

Just as several people were looking at the boat model, a voice sounded: "Present-commanding Lang Li Fan, Lord Li is here!"

Several businessmen quickly stood respectfully and bowed to the door ninety degrees to greet them.

Li Fan walked into the room with big strides, waved his hand and said, "No need!"

When a few businessmen sat down, they saw Li Fan who was unhappy. Li Fan did not expect that with his current reputation, only eight businessmen came. You should know that he had sent hundreds of invitations, and less than 10% of the people came, which made him feel a little dull.

Taking a deep breath, Li Fan recovered as usual. It was the loss of those merchants who wanted to join in the future and not paying the price that made Tong Xiexin feel. How could he get out of today's anger?

After thinking for a while, Li Fan said, "You can come here, that is, for me, Li Fan, the royal postman, and your majesty, Li Fan thanks everyone here!"

"I dare not! I'm waiting." The eight businessmen quickly stood up and said they didn't dare. Just kidding, Li Fan brought Comrade Xiao Zhu with him, who dared to be so arrogant?

"I invite you all to come today, just for one thing. That is ~Sea transportation!"

Although several merchants had expected it, they were still very surprised when they suddenly heard about shipping. You should know that shipping is profitable, who doesn’t want to participate?

But the satisfaction at sea has always been controlled by the great Jiangnan family. Anyone who wants to get a kick will be attacked by the other party. Just by stuttering at sea and causing your ship to be destroyed and people to die, it is not something these merchants can bear.

Seeing several people who looked surprised, Li Fan said: "Whether it is shipping or sea trade, it is huge profits, and often ten times the profit you get is ordinary.

As far as I know, there are mainly two maritime trade in the north and south. First, go to sea from Quanzhou and head to the southeastern island of Manila to do business with the Ganrasi people.

The people of wax silk have specialties such as silver, saltpeter, etc., and just transport the silk and porcelain over there, they will receive them all and make a lot of profits!

The second is to go north to Japan. Japan produces a lot of silver, but because of years of war, it lacks all goods. No matter what is transported, even a ship of shoddy linen can be exchanged for a ship of silver!

I wonder if what I said is true?”

If you can come here, you are interested in the sea trade, so you will naturally know that what Li Fan said is not false, and you will nod and agree with Li Fan's statement.

"That's good! Please take a look!" Li Fan said, walking to a ship model, pointing at the sea boat with a big belly and looking weird, and said, "Please look, this is the Dutch ship. Not only can it carry more cargo, it is also very stable.

As long as you don’t encounter a sea storm or hit a reef, you can arrive safely!”

"Sir! How much cargo can this kind of ship carry?" As soon as Li Fan finished speaking, someone asked. Then he felt that it was inappropriate and couldn't help but smile awkwardly.

Li Fan was interrupted but didn't care. He said: "This walrus-class cargo ship is 300 tons. You can calculate how much cargo can be loaded by yourself!

Oh! By the way! Tons are the weight unit calculated by Western Yi, which looks like almost two thousand kilograms!"

The eight people were completely confused. They were crazily calculating in their minds how much 300 tons weighed. Fatty Wu calculated first, and couldn't help but shouted: "Six hundred thousand kilograms?"

Even if it is only half of it, Fat Wu is satisfied. How much cargo can a load of 300,000 kilograms be transported? What's more, the load of ordinary ships can reach 60%. Isn't there more cargo to be transported in one go?

If so many things are sold overseas, the money you earn at one time can make him wake up with a smile.

Seeing the dull expressions of eight merchants, Li Fan continued: "The royal postmen are close to Japan, so the business route to sail is Japan. I will sail next spring. I hope you can seize the opportunity."

"How valuable is this big ship?" Another businessman asked what everyone wanted to know the most.

Li Fan's eyes swept over everyone present and said slowly: "Ten Thousand Treasures per ship! There are only twenty ships for you. If others want to buy them, they won't sell them 50,000 taels!"

Ten thousand taels are not a small amount. Several merchants looked at each other, and no one was willing to speak first, thinking about whether they could reduce the price.

"Ten thousand taels are not expensive, you don't want it. I, Fatty Wu, want it all!" Fatty Wu said first, and with a wave of his hand, he would wrap all the ships around.

The other people stopped working, obviously only if they had a boat could make more money, so how could they get Fatty Wu take all of them? I really didn't want to argue at the moment. Li Fan looked at the noisy eight people and smiled appeared on the corner of his mouth.
