Chapter 116 Invitation

"A brand new big wing costs 5,000 taels. If it is an old ship, the price is 2,000 to 3,000 taels!"

"This ship is not a big deal, but sailors and pilots are a big problem!"

The experienced sailors may be able to find a few more in the Baiyun Chamber of Commerce, but the experienced navigators are like treasures, so they can never be sold.

Duan Yu flipped through the account book and felt helpless: "Sure enough, I still have to join the stake!"

Nine days have passed since that little chaos. Qin Feiyu is currently taking a group of people to sea every day under the guidance of experienced fishermen to learn how to drive a boat.

Duan Yu was also thinking about his plan for the East China Sea.

The so-called "force" is nothing more than people and money.

He still has a lot of money, but this person is a little troublesome to recruit.

Although there are many people who are not afraid of death who are driving the sea, as long as you give ten taels of resettlement fees, it is no problem to recruit a boat of people, but who is a truly experienced veteran dares to get on this new ship?

Are you not afraid of going to sea for a while, so you will feed the sharks together?

"A group of reliable sailors must be organized as soon as possible...I am the case. Those who want to start from scratch will be even more difficult!"

Duan Yu rubbed his eyebrows, and then he saw a maid coming to report with a greeting letter: "The Gongsun Chamber of Commerce sent someone to deliver a gift list and invite the young master to gather!"

"Are you finally here?"

Duan Yu smiled slightly and reached out to take it.

Since we came to Dongchen, we naturally had to deal with each other. It might be good to start with Gongsun. He said immediately: "Tell Xiao Jingfeng, I'll go!"

Now that he walked out of the chamber of commerce, there were carriages waiting outside, Duan Yu was not polite and went up directly.

The carriage was moving forward, and after about half an hour, it stopped in front of a garden.

"Changchun Garden?"

Duan Yu looked at the plaque: "The Gongsun family has really strong financial resources. There is such a large garden in this port."

At the door, a group of people received the news and came out to greet him. The leader was Gongsun Xiaobai.

He was wearing brocade clothes, with beautiful jade hanging on his waist, and was elegant and dashing. At this moment, he saw a young man getting off the carriage, wearing only a white robe, a black scabbard hanging on his waist, and a bamboo crown on his head. He was calm and felt aroused. He stepped forward to greet him: "Brother Duan!"

"Brother Gongsun!" Duan Yu smiled. He had a successful cultivation level and naturally he was invincible for cold and heat. However, Gongsun Xiaobai was obviously just an ordinary person, but his clothes were thin. Obviously, his clothes were mysterious.

"I have long admired Brother Duan's name. When I see you today, I am indeed well-known. Please come to the park for a banquet!"

Gongsun Xiaobai smiled and made people feel like spring breeze. He invited Duan Yu to the hospital.

At this time, a plum blossom was blooming in the garden, which was elegant and pleasant. Several maids with a cute smile bowed and served plum blossom cakes and fragrant tea first.

Gongsun Xiaobai sat in the main seat, followed by three masters, Ada, Aer, Asan, and Butler Zhou.

These people were staring at Duan Yu at this time, looking at him with admiration and a little vigilant.

After all, it is rumored that this is a peerless and fierce man who draws his sword toward each other for a moment. The safety of the young master is important and you must not slackew.

"These are..."

Duan Yu glanced at Manager Zhou Da and asked with a smile.

"These three people named Ada, A Er and A San are all my slaves. I had a little misunderstanding in Piaoxiangyuan and had a fight with Ling. Please forgive me!"

Gongsun Xiaobai raised his glass: "I will punish myself for three cups!"

"Flying Yu and his brothers are both rough people, and there are mistakes first. The young master is generous and I am very grateful if I don't pursue them."

Duan Yu shook his head and said.

"Okay, I laughed at the previous incident. The so-called "no fight" will not be known to each other. If it weren't for them, how could I know such a talent like Brother Duan? In this regard, they have made no mistakes, haha..."

Gongsun Xiaobai laughed loudly. I have to say that he has a good deal of dealing with people. It is obviously because of his family's origins. The disciples in the aristocratic family originally had to learn this content.

After a while, the banquet came. Although there were not many dishes, they were very delicious and elegant. Duan Yu also liked them very much and put a few more chopsticks.

After all, Linyungang gathers rare goods from all over the world, from bear paws, sea bass, to Izumo's specialties, and a small table of dishes actually gathers delicacies from all over the world, which made Duan Yu secretly shocked when he saw them.

This kind of enjoyment is simply not inferior to the king and prince.

After three rounds of wine and five dishes, Gongsun Xiaobai asked inadvertently: "Brother Duan came to the East China Sea to Linyungang, but are you interested in sea trade?"

"Of course!" There is nothing to hide. Duan Yu directly admitted: "When the world is in chaos, I have no ambitions and just want to be a rich man..."

"The rich man?"

Gongsun Xiaobai's cheek twitched, thinking that you, the real person who kills without blinking, is the biggest joke in the world.

Especially when he is only eighteen years old, he has such scheming methods, which is simply terrifying!

However, at this time, I still wanted to win over the other party and couldn't help but ask: "If you talk about sea trade, my Gongsun Chamber of Commerce has a fleet going out to sea every year. If Brother Duan doesn't dislike it, you can mix it with it."

"Oh? I don't know where to go? How much does a stock cost?"

"Manager Zhou!"

Gongsun Xiaobai glanced at the person next to him. Butler Zhou immediately stood up and said with a smile: "My caravan does not go to the south, but only goes out of the country of clouds. He sets out in early spring, and it takes about 600 updates per way, which is two months!"

Duan Yuheshou knew that the sea route was difficult to measure in ancient times, and seamen divided into ten updates in one day and night, and calculated the distance by comparison: "In this way, can you come back in autumn?"

“That’s right!”

Manager Zhou Da’s eyes lit up: “I’ll go for two months and go back for two months, and I still have two or three months to do business along the way. If I’m lucky this time, it’s not inferior to running the southern trade route.”

"As for this stock? I have ten big winged ships, half of which are all from Brother Duan, and the price is 3,000 taels, how about it?" Gongsun Xiaobai smiled.

"This is not about participating in the shares, but about letting me join!" Duan Yu pondered for a while.

Speaking of which, even if the Gongsun Chamber of Commerce is not able to work hard to form such a large caravan, there must be many other chambers of commerce members and goods.

And with such a team of experienced and businessmen who are naturally of many benefits.

"Of course... because Brother Duan's goods are all chosen by himself, he can also send someone to supervise the sale all the way, how about it?" said the young master Xiaobai.

He clearly saw through Duan Yu's intentions and actually took the initiative to send the opportunity to Duan Yu.

"I'm so cheap?" Duan Yu glanced at Gongsun Xiaobai, which was unclear.

"Brother Duan was so heroic at the age of 18. He was famous in Qingguo. I have always admired him very much, not to mention... three thousand taels are not much! I wonder if Brother Duan will accept him?" Gongsun Xiaobai asked.

"Haha...why didn't I answer?"

Duan Yu laughed and agreed: "I also want to leave with the boat in person and look at the sea view!"

"It's so good! To be honest, I'm ready to follow the boat, and I can ask Brother Duan for help day and night!" Gongsun Xiaobai bowed solemnly.

For the Gongsun Chamber of Commerce, the ten large wings and the goods loaded on them, not to mention spending all their money, it is still mostly worth it.

If it overturns, the entire chamber of commerce will be in a slump.

When he reached that point, Gongsun Xiaobai had no good results, so he might have to be taken back by the head of the family to discuss his crime!

Besides, even if you send a confidant, how can you fully trust it? Things at sea change rapidly and the goods and treasures are touching, but you still have to control them yourself to be at ease.

Gongsun Xiaobai also first started to take charge of the Chamber of Commerce and wanted to achieve some results.

If you pay some price, asking a real person in the soul to take charge will obviously increase a lot of insurance.

So one side intends to win over, and the other side intends to get on the boat, and the last one is having a good conversation.

At that moment, I repeatedly advised me to drink, and the guests and hosts were happy and returned home drunk.

...

After Duan Yu returned to the Baiyun Chamber of Commerce, he called Xiao Jingfeng, Qin Feiyu and others over and said today's agreement.

"Buy half a ship tonnage of three thousand taels? Carry out your own goods and sell them yourself? This is a transaction!"

The first person to speak was Bai Feng. He bowed to Duan Yu: "For goods, he has purchased 20,000 taels of silver copper coins and copper blocks for the young master. In addition, Izumo is a country of warriors. His favorite goods include silk, raw silk, ironware, etc., which can be prepared in large quantities."

"Yang Cai, Yang Weiping, let's leave these to you two. Remember to learn more about accounting transactions!"

Duan Yu just assigned it.

"Abide by the order, I will do this for the gang leader!"

Yang Cai and Yang Weiping are all lying down.

Although the two of them were weak in physique and were a little seasick at the beginning, they gradually got used to it. Although they could not be used as sailors, there were still no problems with traveling with the ship.

"The Kingdom of Izumi?" Qin Feiyu became interested: "I don't know what the scenery is?"

"The Kingdom of Izumo..." Manager Bai Feng recalled: "It is said that the big island has two states, which is very large. The population is very prosperous and the martial arts wind is still strong. I heard that there is some chaos recently, and the princes are everywhere, and there may be continuous war disasters again..."

"Where are the princes rising from the two states?" Qin Feiyu and others looked at each other.

"Haha... You see, every city and county on the mainland can be called princes, and there are many vassal lords who can be divided into two states..." Bai Feng Dale: "However, the people of this island have had a tradition of layered overhead since ancient times. Izumo's authority has never been very good. However, the Wu family occasionally has strong people who have emerged, mastered the court, and are known as the "regent".

"It is precisely because of the wars in this country that the raw wire and iron tools are essential items for making armor, so they can be sold well..." Bai Feng paused and lowered his voice: "If the weapons can be smuggled over, it will be even more profitable!"

"ordnance?"

Xiao Jingfeng shook his head: "All countries are strictly prohibited from armor, bows and crossbows. This kind of transaction is not something we can do."

"That's right...but maybe the Gongsun Chamber of Commerce has had such a transaction in secret."

Duan Yu thought about the matter of Izumo Kingdom and the cargo that Gongsun Xiaobai had to be escorted on the ship himself, and he couldn't help but feel thoughtful.
