Chapter 827: Veteran Discussion
At the same time, many ministers from the court gathered together to discuss the matter.
The final result will definitely be for everyone to go to Yizhou to get a share of the pie!
There was no way, the wealth in Nanyang was too tempting back then!
Those natives had little civilization, let alone the use of gold, silver and jade.
The huge gemstones are used as toys for their children, and the transparent jadeite stones are used to crack nuts!
When the people they sent came back and told them about this, they were really shocked!
It can only be described in four words: a waste of natural resources!
If they weren't busy with official duties, they would also like to go to Nanyang together to see how stupid those natives are. They have so many good things and don't even know it. They only exchanged all their jewelry with a few rags and bronzes.
return!
"Lao Wang, Lao Meng, Lao Kang, look at those guys, they are in groups, getting into the private rooms of the restaurant, they must be discussing whether to go to Yizhou!"
In the private room by the window on the third floor of the roast duck restaurant, Zhang Han, holding his chopsticks, pointed out the window at the few ministers who had just entered the restaurant and said with a smile.
"Does that need to be said? The court has already decided to open the state to the general state, and their hearts are starting to get excited!"
"No! It was the same scene back in Nanyang. When they saw the spices brought back by the navy, they couldn't sit still!"
"These guys are just blind to money...!"
Wang Bi, Kang Anping and others glanced out the window and spoke one after another.
When they said this, they seemed to have forgotten why they were sitting in the private room on the third floor of the roast duck restaurant!
The purpose is not the same as those people, to go to the sea to Yizhou!
"Okay, don't worry about them, let's continue to discuss it and see when is the right time to set off!"
Meng Tian was not as calm as a few others and urged with an anxious expression.
"Don't worry, considering our relationship with His Royal Highness, we will definitely be the first to go to sea, haha!"
Veteran minister Feng Quji laughed heartily.
He was re-employed to the Ministry of Education and did not need to attend the morning court. However, such a big thing happened, and it was impossible for Wang Ben and others not to notify him.
Until now, several ships have been operating together and never set off alone!
In this way, the safety of the crew and property can be guaranteed to a great extent!
Even if you encounter any danger, the gangsters will not dare to attack easily if there are many people!
Therefore, this time, they also sent the news to the old guy as soon as possible, asking him what he meant and whether he wanted to participate!
As a result, when Feng Quji heard this, his turbid old eyes stared brighter than theirs. He quickly explained what he was doing and ran out!
"Are you not in a hurry? I haven't been in Xianyang these years, but I didn't know that so many good things have happened!"
Meng Tian had been leading troops to guard the border. He had not been able to return to Xianyang for several years and did not understand the affairs of Xianyang.
When I came back this time, I discovered that everyone was so rich. It seemed that all the officials were richer than his family.
After some advice from my younger brother Meng Yi, I realized that many people had gone to Nanyang to make money!
But now it’s hard to make money in Nanyang, and the investment is too big, so he doesn’t have the strength to buy a ship, so he gives up!
This time the opportunity came, and he couldn't give it up no matter what!
Meng Yi has promised him that as long as he wants to buy a boat, he will lend him money immediately!
"Oh! Don't worry. Even if those officials come up with a result, they won't make any waves. Without a navigation route, everything is in vain!"
Zhang Han showed a shrewd evil smile.
"That's right! The sea seems calm, but in fact there are hidden reefs underneath. Without a road map, no one would dare to act rashly!"
Wang Ben also said with a smile.
"They don't have it, but neither do we!"
Meng Tian shrugged helplessly.
"This is why Old Feng said what he said just now...!"
Kang Anping and Meng Tian were sitting closest, and they put their arms directly on his shoulders and said with a smile: "Only His Royal Highness has the navigation route map. Before it was printed in large quantities, no one else had it. We
After we have made the decision, we will go to His Highness the Crown Prince’s place through the back door and ask His Highness the Crown Prince to give us a share first. Wouldn’t that be easy?”
After saying that, he raised his eyebrows at Meng Tian.
Where do you think their wealth has come from over the years?
Don’t you all rely on His Highness the Crown Prince?
I have relied on you so many times, but this time is still missing?
"Isn't this... bad?"
Meng Tian was an upright person, so he felt a little embarrassed about using the back door to get ahead.
"No? Then don't go! Wait until the navigation route map is published in large quantities, and then go and grab it with those honorable nobles!"
However, after hearing this, several people immediately rolled their eyes at him.
"Oh! You don't know my brother's nature? Don't take anything he says seriously. After you have been with His Highness the Crown Prince for two years, you will naturally blend in!"
Meng Yi quickly smiled and smoothed things over.
Ying Feiyu is a slippery man, and after getting along with each other for these years, they have learned more or less.
Even Wang Ben, the former elm-headed man, became enlightened under the influence of that boy, let alone his brother!
It is estimated that the person who runs to Bieyuan the most diligently will be my brother!
"Hehe! Yes, just pretend I didn't say anything!"
When Meng Tian saw this, he realized that what he said was indeed inappropriate.
"Let's continue talking. The navigation route map is simple, but the crew and steamship...?"
Meng Yi quickly changed the topic and led everyone to the main business.
"Now only the ministers of the DPRK know about this matter and must go find the crew members quickly, otherwise it will be too late by the time tomorrow's newspaper comes out and the entire Qin Dynasty knows about it!"
If you want to go to sea, you need someone who can drive a steamship and have sailing experience.
The navy meets all conditions, but they are soldiers and generals of the imperial court. It is absolutely impossible to help them make money. They can only be found among the people.
Fortunately, with the development of Nanyang in recent years, many experienced crew members have been brought in. What they have to do now is to recruit such talents quickly!
If you start too late, others will beat you to it!
"That's right! In addition, you have to go to the shipyard to buy a boat!"
"Yes! According to the time, our ship should have just passed Lingnan at this time. It's not certain when we can come back, but we can't delay our trip to Yizhou because of this!"
"Yes, yes, we have to buy another boat...!"
The old guys are different from other ministers. They have been doing business with Ying Feiyu from the very beginning. They are so rich that spending more than one million gold is nothing.
What's more, buying a boat will bring them unlimited benefits!
"Then it's settled. Now I'll go back home and arrange for my family to find outstanding crew members. Even if they are paid a high price, they have to be hired by me. We will meet at the shipyard in an hour!"
"good!"
