"It's not that he wants to steal the love, it's that he wants to recommend some people to us!"

Of course, for Shi Yiwen, he hoped to use Yu Zigao, but he was observing the system at home, so of course it was impossible to invite him out. Besides... at least... there is no need to use Yu Zigao in the past three years, so why not wait a few more years?

"However, the subordinates' posts are slight, so I have to trouble the Duke to personally write a letter to him."

"Oh, so that's it. This matter is easy to handle, easy to handle."

When he heard that it was not a person who had robbed others of love, he just wrote a letter, Zhu Yingzhen naturally would not refuse. While agreeing, he stood on the dam with Shi Yiwen for a while and talked about building a dock and shipbuilding. Of course, he also talked about the Tonghai Trade.

"What is the fundamental thing about doing business? It's not like taking things over directly and then returning them with silver. This won't make much money. So, we have to see what they need. For example, Japan needs raw silk, silk, cloth, sugar, iron and other things. We will transport these goods to Japan and see what we need, such as Japan's copper. I heard that there is a lot of copper there, and of course silver there is also a lot of silver. We will transport all these things back to the Ming Dynasty, but it's not difficult to transport only what we need. After all, we have to open a route to the West, and there will inevitably be some Japanese things that can be sold to Southeast Asia and India. India also has goods that Japan needs. In fact, most of the time, it's up to the Western Ocean to make profits through such maritime communications..."

This is the most superficial explanation, which involves a series of gameplays such as building trading posts and concessions in the era of the Great Age. Shi Yiwen did not mention it, but even so, Zhu Yingzhen sounded extremely fresh.

"This is the country of Japan that produces a lot of copper. If we transport the copper back and make it into copperware, wouldn't we make more profits?"

As a person is always extremely sensitive to interests, Zhu Yingzhen naturally thought of the expensive bronze ware in China.

"That's inevitable. After all, what we shipped from Japan is just copper bars."

"Since that's the case, should the company set up a bronze factory here..."

Almost subconsciously, Zhu Yingzhen stopped. Why did he ask the company to run a bronze factory? This matter can be done by himself.

"Duke, in fact, the company does not need to operate the details like the bronze ware factory. After all, although such utensils are profitable, if they are also operated by the company, they will be too complicated. In addition, many of the copper strips we shipped back have to be sold to the court, so it is better to be done by outsiders..."

Shi Yiwen, who heard the meaning of Zhu Yingzhen's words, said deliberately.

"I heard that there are slaves in the Duke's mansion who make bronze ware in the capital. If the workshop is moved to Lugou, it would be very suitable. At that time, you can directly use a boat to send the copper material to Lugou. I wonder what the Duke thinks?"

"This... this is not very good. After all, I am the chairman of the company, so how can I harm the public and private?"

As he said this, Shi Yiwen didn't see the greed in his eyes, so he smiled.

"How can this be a loss of public and private power? After all, copper bars are always sold, so who is not sold? Besides, selling them to others may even owe to the other party. Naturally, there will be no concerns about this when they sell them to the Duke. Do you think so?"

"Hey, this, let's talk about it again..."

Zhu Yingzhen had a smile on his face, and when Shi Yiwen's eyes were also perverted, this kid was quite sensible. No wonder the British Duke trusted him so much, probably trust was second. The key was that he had the ability to earn money. Such a person who could earn money should make good friends, and he might have some other financial resources in the future.

As he thought about it in his heart, Zhu Yingzhen took the initiative to show his kindness.

"Zhiyuan, there is a saying that I don't know whether to say it or not."

"Oh? Just say it straightforwardly."

"Have you offended someone after you entered Beijing?"

Who have you offended?

Shi Yiwen shook his head and said with a frown slightly.

"No, since I entered Beijing last year, I have rarely left the village in the village, otherwise I would have been working hard to run my own factory in Lugou. How could I offend people?"

"I'm not offending?"

After silent and pondering for a while, Zhu Yingzhen tried to ask:

"Do you know Zhang Taizheng?"

"Zhang Taizheng?"

Shi Yiwen asked in confusion, who is this guy?

"who is he?"

"Zhang Cifu's son!"

Although there was no one around, Zhu Yingzhen still pressed his voice down.

"My incompetent son is quite familiar with him. He said that Mr. Zhang seems to have complaints about you."

"Zhang Siwei's son? Yes..."

After thinking for a while, Shi Yiwen understood what was going on. This was completely the trouble caused by Tang Ziqi's mother. But he still asked without showing any sign of mountains or water.

"How is this possible? Xiaguan has never had any dealings with him! How could he offend him?"

"Maybe it's because of jealousy. After all, you are so young and already have a high position, and you are in charge of the Royal Banknote and host a Western company. This jealousy is inevitable, but you have to be careful."

Zhu Yingzhen originally intended to use this to show his favor to Shi Yiwen, thought for a while, and then reminded him specifically.

"Zhiyuan, although this young master Zhang is from a great man, he is still young and energetic. Since he has aroused his jealousy, he still needs to find a way to deal with it properly. Well, this way, I will look back and find an opportunity to help you talk to him."

In fact, at this time, anyone could hear that Zhu Yingzhen was showing goodwill, and Shi Yiwen knew about this. He heard that he said this, he naturally expressed his gratitude.

"In this way, I would like to thank the Duke."

Say and?

How to say and?

While sneering in his heart, Shi Yiwen understood one thing. The Zhang surnamed must have not forgotten that thing. Even if it was a grievance and was taken into the trap, this Liangzi had become... the hatred for taking his wife! Even if it was not taken away, as long as he thought so, then this hatred would be considered to be considered a hatred.

Although he knew that Zhu Yingzhen could not solve the problem, Shi Yiwen thanked him for his reminder, so he talked to him about the company again. The two of them were talking about how to make money through the business, especially when they talked about some huge profits of ten times or even dozens of times, Zhu Yingzhen couldn't help but danced and said repeatedly.

"Okay, okay, this business should be done like this, and this should be done like this. Unexpectedly, there is really a place overseas with a sea of ​​gold and silver. We couldn't touch it in the past, but now it's different..."

In addition to being happy, he gently patted Shi Yiwen on the shoulder and said.
