Chapter 673 Prepare to return
Xu Jingzong and Li Yifu looked at each other and felt that Li Zhi had said so much at once and felt that the two of them felt very abrupt.
Seeing the two of them looking unstable, Li Zhi spoke again, "Actually, all this was arranged by Gu Qing. I know this is a bit abrupt for you. If you don't believe it, you can go and ask Gu Qing, but after you ask Gu Qing, don't come to me, and don't come to the Hai Trade Department. You can choose it yourself."
By the way, Xu Jingzong understood this. In Li Zhi's eyes, he was Gu Qing's person. If he still listened to Gu Qing's everything, for Li Zhi, he might as well not go to the Hai Trade Department. As long as he agreed to Li Zhi today, he would have to break up with Gu Qing.
"Did you figure it out?" Li Zhi asked again.
Li Yifu also understood the meaning and then asked, "Does His Highness King Jin have any conflicts with Mr. Gu?"
"There is no conflict." Li Zhi said calmly, "It's just that in the Maritime Trade Department, you are helping me, not helping Gu Qing do things. Do you understand?"
Xu Jingzong held down Li Yifu, who was about to ask again, nodded and said, "We understand, we will come to the Hai Trade Department to do business tomorrow morning."
Li Yifu was surprised to see Xu Jingzong sitting on his own, but he didn't expect Xu Jingzong to agree so quickly.
"That's good. I'll wait for you in the Hai Trade Department tomorrow morning and say goodbye." Li Zhi stood up and said, "You must have not slept steadily for a long time. I have arranged a room for you in the tavern. I have paid the money. You have a good rest for a day."
"Greatly send him to the King of Jin." Xu Jingzong stood up and saluted.
Li Yifu still asked Xu Jingzong in a confused look on his face, "Did you agree so quickly?"
"There is nothing to agree to. It's better to have a way out." Xu Jingzong began to eat the food on the table.
"Why Mr. Gu, do you want to explain?"
Xu Jingzong waved his hands repeatedly, "No need. Your Highness King Jin had met Pei Xingjian, and now he has already told us these meanings very clearly. We are no longer valuable to Mr. Gu Hou. Mr. Gu Hou's current status is too sensitive. If we continue to do things for Mr. Gu Hou, it will be bad for us. Your Highness King Jin is for us, and we should think about ourselves. Besides, I believe this is Mr. Gu Hou's arrangement."
Li Yifu lowered his head and recalled the conversation.
In Japan, spring is about to reach the southeast wind direction, and Xue Ji is arranging this return.
"All those who want to return will stay in the port for half a month, and all those who are sick will stay on the coast. Only when they are cured can they upload it." Xue Ji issued an order, "The cabin is a very closed space. If there is a cold, staying in the cabin will lead to many infections."
The civilians who came to the port were willing to obey Xue Ji, which means that in the past half month, everyone had to wait half a month before they could board the ship and return. Those who went to sea for the second time were already accustomed to this rule, and this was also the iron rule for going to sea. No sick person could board the ship.
"Pieces of glass are loading, and there are also a lot of perfumes and ores, and other things that are made and dug from Japan are going to Guanzhong."
Xue Ji looked at the rubber in his hand, "Is this what Mr. Gu wants to make?"
"It should be." The person who spoke was from the factory and a student from the academy. He explained, "I just gave me a sample and formula before. There were too few raw materials in Japan. All we could make was more than one hundred stones. There were very few fig trees in Japan. I planned to take these back to see if they could be used. But this time I won't go back. In addition to watching the rubber, I also had to plant more fig trees in Japan."
Xue Ji patted his shoulder and said, "Do you know how long you will have to wait if you don't go back this time?"
"I know." He nodded, "I was originally a wanderer. Mr. Gu gave me a chance to study! If this rubber can really help Mr. Gu achieve great things, I am willing. If I only have a reward, then I will leave my name in the academy."
"I will tell Mr. Gu." Xue Ji nodded, "It's just that you're going to suffer."
"It's okay." The student smiled and said, "I usually don't go to the workshop. There are many Japanese people doing things for me. I have the most rewards and the most Japanese workers."
"I will arrange a team of guards for you. Someone will take over after autumn. There will be fewer workshops. The taste of that thing is not good for the health." Xue Ji said solemnly.
"I understand, the Japanese are working harder than anyone else for money and food, so I don't need to do more."
"Mr. Xue." A minor official from the Maritime Trade Department reported, "The goods have been decorated almost all over the place, this is a list."
Xue Ji took the list and took a look. The production of glass this time is very good, and the production of perfume is very low. However, Japan's grain production is too small, and high-concentration wine cannot be brewed. Because the season in Japan is relatively cold, I don't know if the weather will be better after the weather is warm. I thought that perfume should be made better in the south, so I told Gu Houye about this situation, and the bricks and stones made have also become a problem.
"There are too many bricks and stones, and these bricks and stones are probably not transported out at once." Xue Ji said hesitantly, "Let's go from Goguryeo to divert this batch of bricks and stones."
"Yes." The minor official of the Hai Trade Department immediately went to prepare.
The waves slammed the coast, and the Japanese monk who had just returned from the Japanese royal family looked at the direction of the Central Plains with expressionless expression.
"What are you thinking?" Xue Ji asked.
"The royal family of Japan has given up on its own. Many people who serve the royal family would rather come to the factory than be in the royal family. Now the royal family lives worse than ordinary civilians." The Japanese monk said with his eyes unconsciously.
"Actually, I can give you royal money." Xue Ji said with a smile.
"What do you want to do again!" The Japanese monk's eyes immediately looked alert.
"I didn't want to control your royal family." Xue Ji said again, "It's just that we Central Plains people make money in your Japan, and at the same time make many of you Japan rich. Naturally, we can't just treat you Japan."
"You will never have bad intentions." The Japanese monk said.
"We just hope that your Japanese royal family can help us say a few words and make more people believe us." Xue Ji smiled.
"Telection the emperor to command the princes?! Is it the same thing you have in the Central Plains?" the Japanese monk said gritting his teeth.
