Only when the Ming Dynasty unified the world would it be the best era for merchants.

This sentence made Yang Xun excited. Yes, as businessmen, how could they not know how comfortable the merchants in Ming Dynasty were?

In Qi, no matter how rich the merchants are, they look bright and beautiful, which makes others envious. In fact, they are like fat pigs deliberately raised by the government. When they see that they are fat enough, they will drag them out to let them go and let them bleed. This is also the kind of person who is knowledgeable and obedient, otherwise they will just drag them out of the pigpen and slaughter them and eat meat. Anyway, it won't take long to grow new fat pigs.

Yang Xun's family has a great career, but he has to find a big man in Chang'an City as his backer. He doesn't have to pay any capital or risk, and he can take hundreds of thousands of taels of silver here every year. Moreover, no matter whether Yang Xun makes or loses this year, this amount of filial piety silver must not be lost.

When something big happened, these people could not stand up and prevent the disaster for them. Just like this time, the man only reduced some orders for Yang Xun, and the remaining orders were still enough to crush Yang to death. The Lei family in Yuzhou obviously had no good luck, and his backer must have worked hard for him, but his stall was too big and had too wide access, and finally crushed himself to death. At the last moment, his backstage did not save him.

But in the Ming Dynasty, merchants didn't have to care about these things at all. The Ming Dynasty had laws that ensured the interests of merchants. Merchants formed a coalition of associations. They even had a considerable influence on the Ming Dynasty court. They had already stepped onto the front desk in a noble manner.

The Ming Dynasty court also borrowed money from merchants. They not only borrowed money from merchants, but also from the people. However, while borrowing money, the interest was also clearly stated. Once a year, old accounts were cleared and new accounts were borrowed. It was said that the court of the state had always relied on lending to spend the day, but they established extremely reliable credit, so that the merchants and the people enthusiastically borrowed money from the court. The most ridiculous thing is that in the past two years, the Ming Dynasty court has gradually become rich and no longer borrowed money from the merchants and the people. There are still many people who have complained because they have lost a stable way to make money.

This seemed like a joke to the people of Qi, but Yang Xun knew that it was happening in real life.

The Ming Dynasty court opened the way for merchants and opened up sources for them, allowing merchants to earn more and more wealth. Under the virtuous cycle, their court dared to become richer and richer.

This is the most distinctive contrast with Qi State.

What Yang Xun envied the most was that the merchants of Qi State had not only gradually gained a say in politics, but they even had their own armed forces. They were developing overseas and building new places, turning those places into the latest territory for their own sales of goods. The Ming State was always expanding production, but they never had to worry about the lack of sales in things.

I wish I could be born as a businessman in the Ming Dynasty.

Yang Xun could only sigh in his heart that he was born in a bad state. If he was born in the Ming Dynasty, he might be the Supreme Emperor of those locals now showing off his might!

"Brother Yang, we will be our own people in the future." Looking at Yang Xun who was thinking, Fan Chun patted his shoulder affectionately, "Don't worry, within ten days, the goods you want will be shipped to Luoyang, and your factory can continue to start construction and complete the imperial order."

Yang Xun took a deep breath, calmed down and said, "Brother Fan, although we all know that Qi may fail in the end, now, we are still under their rule. It is easy for them to take our lives. This kind of thing is the task of tying our heads on the belt, so I want to leave a way out for Yang."

"Does Brother Yang want to send some children and nephews to Ming Kingdom?" Fan Chun asked.

"How do you know?" Yang Xun asked in surprise at Fan Chun, who was like a worm in his stomach.

"What's so strange about this? Because I've done this a long time ago." Fan Chun shrugged.

Yang Xun stared at Fan Chun for a while before he suddenly realized and said, "Is your second son who died of sudden illness last year going to Mingguo?"

"Yes, he is now traveling through the capital of Mingguo. He is living a good life and is very safe. He also opened a Huichuntang. In the past two years, some experienced elderly people in our store have gradually quit their jobs and left Tongrentang. In fact, they went to Mingguo." Fan Chun said proudly.

"You started early, so there is no problem, but if I want to do this now, I am afraid that it will attract the attention of those who are interested." Yang Xun said with some worries.

"We have actually thought of this for a long time and have thought of a way." Fan Chun said: "Brother Yang, do you have to personally escort the goods to the army when you deliver them?"

"Of course." Yang Xun said angrily: "We personally took them to the army and inspect the goods. Until they signed the documents, we could only use these documents to get the white notes from the Ministry of War. Even so, we would bribe those inspectors so that we would not be troubled."

"This time, you arrange for those departing nephews to escort the goods. When they deliver the goods, they will be attacked by some mobs on the way back, and then they will die. In this way, those officials will only be complacent because you lost these documents and will not pay for them, but will not pay attention to how these people thought they died." Fan Chun smiled and said, "Of course, the drama will be done in a complete set. You have to arrange for someone to ask for documents again or go to the Ministry of War to argue, but of course they will not admit the accounts. After a while, no one will care about the matter of few people in your family."

Yang Xun nodded, "It's so good. In this way, I can feel much more at ease. No matter what, Yang will not break the roots. It's just that after losing such a large amount of money inexplicably, life will be even worse next year."

"We have embraced the thigh of Ming Dynasty and can always find a way to overcome this difficulty." Fan Chun smiled and said, "I am now looking forward to the call of the Ming Dynasty as soon as possible, so that we can live openly and live freely."

At this point, the two sides were very happy to talk. Yang Xun had the goods and had a way out, and he was also happy in his heart. He immediately put some wine and food on the table and talked with Fan Chun.

During the meal, the two of them couldn't help but talk about the current situation of Ming merchants again. They were all sighing. They had to throw away goods and they were so angry that they were more popular!

"Brother Fan, you said you would give me a surprise. What kind of surprise is this? Now we are all on the same boat. Can you reveal it? "After drinking a few cups of hot wine, Yang Xun asked with a smile.

"I'm ashamed to say that, someone said this to me, but I really don't know what happened, but it's been these two days." Fan Chun said a little embarrassedly: "Before, I was just pulling the tiger's skin and making a big banner!"

"What surprise can you get? It's impossible that Mingren has called him!" Yang Xun smiled and shook his head, "They are still thousands of miles away from Luoyang, unless they can fly."

"Who knows?" Fan Chun shook his head. "But I can tell you another surprise in advance that when your goods come, one of our old friends will come to Luoyang with this batch of goods."

"Our old friend?" Yang Xun was a little surprised: "Who could it be?"

"Speaking of this person was a famous wealthy businessman in Luoyang back then. Later, he was arrested and imprisoned for his relationship with Ming people, but they were different. Even if they reached this point, they could still leave happily. In this way, can you guess who this person is?"

"Yu Changyuan!" Yang Xun blurted out, "Oh my God, it's been more than ten years. Is he going to come back? His son-in-law is now the general of the Ming Dynasty, and his daughter is also a general in command. If he doesn't enjoy the happiness in Ming Dynasty, why do he come back to do?"

"He came back because he was familiar with people like us!" Fan Chun smiled and said, "Two years ago, I joined the Ministry of State Security of the Ming Dynasty because of him. Besides, even if a person like him fails, there is nothing scary about it, because Qi really dares to kill him. This is called being fearless."

"This person was really calling for the wind and rain in Luoyang. If he really came back, I'm afraid he could really stir up some storms,"

"Now the storm is getting turbulent and people are in panic. It is fine to coax others by the court's remarks and policies, but it is difficult to deceive people like us. We travel around the world and know more about it than some officials. On the other hand, can they compare with us?" Fan Chun sneered. "Come on, drink, drink."

Fan Chun returned home with satisfaction and was drunk, but Yang Xun couldn't sleep at night. Unlike Fan Chun who had been a spy in the Ming Dynasty for two years, this new man was still worried and unable to sleep.

When he got up early in the morning, he finally had two dark circles, which scared Yang Su who came to pick him up. Looking at Yang Xun who was listless, Yang Su said: "Or, brother, I'll have a day off at home today. We will go to the workshop to arrange the corresponding matters tomorrow."

Yang Xun shook his head: "No need, it's just that I haven't had a good sleep all night, which is not a problem. However, the workshop is very important. Once the raw materials arrive, I have to hurry up and work. No matter what, we can't miss it, otherwise we will be unable to escape."

The two brothers didn't say much, and rode their horses and went out to go straight to the outside of the city.

When he walked to the gate of the Xuncheng Camp, Yang Xun suddenly stopped the reins. It was just dawn and the gate of the Xuncheng Camp had not opened yet, but Yang Xun saw two people leaning against each other and sitting at the vermilion gate. He knew the two, the old couple selling charcoal he met yesterday.

He rode his horse in amazement and took a few steps closer, but suddenly stopped the horse and widened his eyes in surprise. The faces, hair and eyebrows were covered with ice chips. Living people should not be like this. The old couple did not leave last night, but they were frozen to death on the street.

Seeing the two dead people with tears on their faces, but with strange smiles, Yang Xun felt a tingling pain in his heart. Looking at the closed vermilion gate, a burst of blood exploded in his mind, and quickly emitting four legs.

Such an imperial court is a good thing if it is gone.

"Brother!" Yang Su didn't care. He had seen so many people who died of cold and starvation when he went out this time.

"Let's go!" Yang Xun rode his horse and whipped away.
