Chapter 1030 Gently I left, took away a boat of gold coins (seeking monthly pass)
When the "Health Pill" slowly left the Kanchipuran Pier, Yang Qiwa also personally led the team of the Puluozhong Maritime Navy toward the King of Qi Port.
Wang Youcai plundered a huge amount of gold coins in India. After the first ship transporting gold coins to Qiwang Port arrived, the local maritime maritime fleet arranged a fast ship to send it to Puluo.
Yang Qiwa, who was stationed in Puluo, immediately took most of the Puluo Shibo Navy to Qiwang Port after receiving the news.
"Admiral Yang, although there are not many merchants in Nanyang, the people of Tianzhu are quite rich. I have heard of this rumor. However, for a long time, except for the merchants of Dashi who frequently go to Tianzhu, merchants in other places rarely go to Tianzhu. This time, the large amount of gold that Zhangguan Wang earned from Tianzhu can be regarded as opening up a new market for my Datang Maritime Merchants."
Next to Yang Qiwa, his right-hand assistant Su Yi introduced his understanding of Tianzhu.
As a native of Linyi, Guanzhong, Su Yi has completely gained Yang Qiwa's trust.
In recent years, Su Yi has taken advantage of his proficiency in the languages of various Southeast Asian countries to do a lot of things for Yang Qiwa.
"When Manager Wang and President Xi passed by Puluozhong, I felt a little strange. However, President Xi said that this was the arrangement of His Highness the King of Chu, so I didn't think too much about it.
Now it seems that they must have taken special tasks to Tianzhu. Then you can arrange it and let the soldiers of the fleet not ask what they should not ask after arriving at Qiwang Port, and don’t look at what they should not ask or what they should not see.”
Yang Qiwa knew that Wang Youcai had arranged for the first ship to transport gold coins, so he carried hundreds of thousands of taels of gold coins, and it is said that there were more behind.
Wang Youcai was able to get so much money in Tianzhu for only two or three months. There must be some special reasons behind it.
Yang Qiwa obviously realized this.
A person knows too much, sometimes it is not a good thing.
He didn't want any of his subordinates to inadvertently ruin the major affairs of His Highness the King of Chu.
"No problem, brothers all understand this truth! Now our Puluo Zhong Shibo Navy ship is stationed for a long time. After we get there, we can just stay in the port."
"The sea areas our navy is now responsible for are getting bigger and bigger, and in recent months, the number of Dashi merchant ships entering and leaving the South China Sea has also increased. When I return to Puluo this time, I will definitely ask His Highness the King of Chu to arrange more warships to Puluo to avoid any trouble."
Yang Qiwa was able to transform from an ordinary farmer into the admiral of the Puluo Zhongshibo today. Everything depends on the East China Sea fishery and the Chu King's Mansion.
He had a very clear understanding of this situation.
"It should be easier to add ships. I think the navy of the Puluo Zhongshibo and the navy of the great cannibal will have a battle sooner or later!"
...
"Shopkeeper Wang, the fleet has successfully entered the West and will arrive at the King of Qi in a few days. This mission has basically been successfully completed."
On the deck of the "Health Pill Number", Xi Junmai breathed a sigh of relief and sat on the recliner, enjoying the sunset.
"His Highness the King of Chu has completed its rich tasks perfectly, but I think our mission in India has just begun. His Highness the King of Chu said that reading thousands of books is worse than traveling thousands of miles.
If I hadn't come to India, I wouldn't have known that the overseas world was so exciting. No wonder His Highness the King of Chu kept encouraging the fleet to explore overseas. It was not enough to find Australia, so I continued to arrange people to find America."
Wang Youcai was in a very good mood at this time.
It can be foreseeable that when he returns to Chang'an City, he will definitely become a national figure.
On a trip to India, I brought back nearly two million taels of gold. This ability to attract money is not as good as Li Kuan in Chang'an City.
"My feeling is similar to yours. Before that, I thought that the best way to deal with a country is to send troops to defeat them. But through this period of experience, I found that to defeat a country, you don't have to send troops. Even if you can defeat him without sending troops, it is a more powerful approach.
After several months of tossing, I think the Panava Dynasty is abolished. Even if Mital or the rebels cannot retreat and overthrow their rule, this country is abolished. The most important thing is that after just a simple operation, we plundered about two million taels of gold from the Panava Dynasty, which is even more expanding than robbing money.
If I could do this for a while every year, the living standards of the people of the Tang Dynasty would probably be able to rise to a higher level in less than a few years.”
Xi Junmai was also very emotional.
It can be said that the sale of health pills is refreshing his understanding of things every moment.
In the end, Wang Youcai's operation to support Mital made him realize how deep the political water is, and it is not something that a simple person like him can play with.
"You have to say nothing, I'm really going to go to the Dashi Empire next time and try to replicate the miracle of India. In the eyes of His Highness the King of Chu, Dashi is a country that is more threatening than India. If you look at the ships that appear in Southeast Asia, you can feel the difference in this country.
To be honest, Dashi merchant ships basically monopolized the entire Western trade and have even extended their tentacles to the South China Sea. Even in Guangzhou, Quanzhou, Mingzhou and other places, there are many Dashi merchants.
If I hadn't entered a business school in the past, I wouldn't feel the significance of commercial development to the Tang Dynasty, and I might not have felt anything. But now it's different. Dashi merchants appeared in the Tang Dynasty in large numbers and monopolized Western trade, which means they have gained huge benefits and absorbed nutrients from the entire Tang Dynasty, South China and Western countries for the development of Dashi. We have no reason to leave these nutrients to them."
In Wang Fugui's eyes, no matter what foreign business it is, it should be left to the merchants of the Tang Dynasty.
Guanshishan Academy Business School should play its role in expanding overseas trade, and even directly establish a caravan belonging to the college.
As for the Tang Dynasty merchants to travel around the world, the most important and biggest threat is actually the Dashi merchants.
It would be great if we could use health pill sales to get their wool and reduce the national strength of Dashi.
Of course, he also knew that such a thing was probably not that simple.
Even if what happened in India did not spread to Dashi, it would not be as smooth as this time.
After all, Dashi is a powerful country. Once you find that something is wrong with the sale of health pills, you will definitely make up your mind and formulate some countermeasures.
Even after the incident happened in Tianzhu reached Dashi, people were directly wary of the sale of health pills. As soon as they entered the territory of Dashi, they might have been arrested.
Of course, Wang Youcai is not that stupid and will definitely not directly take health pills to big food for sale.
If you want to do it, you have to change your vest.
"Shopkeeper Wang, if you go to Dashi next time, I will continue to go with you! Your Highness the King of Chu has indeed mentioned the issue of Dashi to me many times, and even some caravans transporting silk and other items to the Western Regions also had some conflicts with the Dashi. It is said that in the west of the Western Regions, there have been troops of Dashi already appearing.
Judging from the globe, the territory controlled by the Dashi Empire is really not much smaller than our Datang. The most important thing is that they control the important transportation routes, which influenced the pace of our Datang caravan continuing to develop to the extreme west.
I'm a little looking forward to visiting this country that even His Highness the King of Chu is quite afraid of, and see if they are really that powerful."
Xi Junmai pressed his hand on the hilt of the knife, as if there was a big cannibal in the sea in front of him.
"There are also many big-food merchants in Kanchipuram City. Through observation and investigation during this period, I found that these big-food people are particularly united and it is difficult for outsiders to enter. Especially, they pray twice a day, which brings people's hearts very neatly together. Otherwise, in terms of figure, they are not stronger than us Tang people, and in terms of weapons, they are not sharper than us; as for the art of war, I don't think they are superior to us.
But in such a country, His Highness the King of Chu was very afraid of, and the expansion strength they showed was worthy of our fear. In my opinion, this is inseparable from the unique culture between them. If I want to defeat the Dashi Empire, I think I cannot rely on simple wars. Of course, it does not mean that I will not fight them.
If they have not fought once, they have no idea how powerful our Tang Dynasty is, then the effect of other measures will be much worse. It is best to let them see the power of our Tang Dynasty, and then they can achieve the final victory through various other economic measures, or support some of their opponents, and other means such as differentiation from them."
"Dashi is too far from the Tang Dynasty, otherwise the problem can be solved by military alone. Nowadays, I guess what Manager Wang said is the best way. This time I returned to Chang'an City, I also want to report to His Highness the King of Chu to see if we can better play the role of our Shunfeng Escort Agency in the process of dealing with Dashi."
Xi Junmai obviously was unwilling to be a corpshop.
"We need to report it well! Although His Highness the King of Chu has a great vision, he has not seen what is happening in the West with his own eyes. After all, we may have new instructions after reporting the situation in the West. At least it is necessary to increase the influence of the Puluo Zhongshibo Navy in Qiwang Port."
Seeing that the fleet was about to arrive at the port of King Qi soon, Wang Youcai began to re-examine the port used to exile Li You.
For the vast majority of the people of the Tang Dynasty, they have never even heard of the King of Qi, let alone where it is.
However, Wang Youcai, who transported a batch of gold coins to Qiwang Port some time ago, had a new understanding of the significance of this port.
The location of Qiwanggang is really great!
There is no mistake to say that it is a must-pass place for the West to enter the Southeast Asian Sea.
The most important thing is that it can quickly reach India in the north, close to the Dashi Empire in the west, and face Puluo in the east.
If the Tang Dynasty could operate the King of Qi into a big city like Puluo, it would have an indelible effect on controlling the West.
...
Qi Wanggang.
Although Li You has only been here for less than a year, the port has undergone earth-shaking changes.
Since Li You brought more than a thousand people directly, and with some helpers recruited from the Tamil Kingdom and the Sinhalese Kingdom, thousands of people were working on the dock every day.
"Shopkeeper Wang, what do you mean is that I can cooperate with the people of the Panawa Dynasty first, buy some slaves, and speed up the construction of the port?"
Next to the dock, Wang Youcai and Li You, who had just arrived at the King of Qi Port yesterday, looked at the surroundings and expressed their opinions.
Originally, Wang Youcai was planning to stay in Qiwanggang for one night and set off to return to Puluo immediately.
But after hearing that the Puluo Zhongshibo Navy had arranged for people to go back and request reinforcements, he prepared to wait.
He carries so many gold coins on his boat. If he really encounters a pirate who is not open to his eyes, the loss will be too great. He doesn't want to take the risk of fearlessness.
Anyway, there is no force in Qiwanggang that can pose a threat in a short period of time.
"Yes, Kanchipuran City is now in chaos, and there will definitely be a large number of people displaced; Qiwanggang is in short supply, so you can buy some people to come. Otherwise, you will introduce too many Tamils or Sinhalese at one time, and it will be easy to make them bigger at that time.
In order to avoid this danger, I think you should control the population of any foreign race, and it should not exceed 20% of that of Qiwanggang. Of course, it may be a bit difficult to achieve this goal in the early stage, but in a few years, it is best to be able to control it according to this proportion, or even in a more stringent proportion.
Even if you buy some people from Silla and Japan, it is better than using all the Sinhalese and Tamils.”
Attracting a large number of Tang people to Qiwanggang is an unrealistic problem.
At least not realistic for a short period of time.
Therefore, Wang Youcai suggested that Li You enrich the number of personnel in various regions and not allow one party to grow bigger.
Otherwise, it would be very likely that they would have made wedding clothes for them, which would be depressed.
"You have a good question. The Tamils and Sinhalese have lived on this big island for hundreds of years, and they really cannot use them in large quantities. However, after years of war and the country is very poor. I think that if you can get these people to Puluo or Guangzhou City, you may be able to sell them at a good price." Then transport some servants from Guangzhou or other places, so that the ships will not be empty when they go back and forth.
Li Youcai didn't care about how many servants on the ship would die after such a struggle.
Anyway, this method is beneficial and feasible to build Wanggang, so he will definitely do this.
"This is a good way. At that time, you can discuss the ship's issues with Admiral Yang to see if there are any ships eliminated by the Maritime Marine and sell them to you for use."
When it comes to Cao Cao, Cao Cao will arrive.
Chapter completed!
