Chapter 339 Grand Sailing Plan
"It's not good for Wang Zhuangshi to have this intention. I don't know if there are any old and young in Wang Zhuangshi's family?"
Wang Haibin's statements are indeed very reserved, which shows his cautious personality. Generally speaking, this answer is obviously suspected of offending Li Xian. Hearing this, Deng Cheng was sweating wildly, afraid that he would suffer from the pond fish in vain, but Li Xian didn't seem to mind at all. He raised his hand with a smile and motioned to Wang Haibin. Flat, a faction pulls up the family in an easy-going way.
"In the words of your Highness, the little parents lost early, only the old wife and the third son and one daughter. The eldest daughter has been married as a woman. The third son, the middle-aged son and the second son are looking for a living in the sea. The youngest son is fourteen years old and has entered the state school."
Wang Haibin didn't understand why Li Xian suddenly asked about family affairs, but he didn't dare to answer. Speaking of the young son in the family, his dark face unconsciously showed a proud look.
"Well, you can be a scholar at the age of 14, and this talent is not bad. In this case, I have some friendship with the Guozi supervisor. The youngest son of Wang Zhuangshi will make up for a supervisor in the Guozi prison. Gao Mio, this matter will be handled by you."
As soon as I heard that Wang Haibin's youngest son became a scholar at the age of 14, Li Xian was really surprised. You should know that the imperial examination was just on the right track at this time. The provinces were extremely rigorous, and the quotas taken were extremely limited. Under more monks and less porridge, the competition was extremely fierce, especially in the prefectures and counties with flourishing southern culture such as Yang, Hangzhou and Su. In this way, without real ability, it is very difficult to squeeze across the single-wood bridge. In view of this, Li Xian's love for talent immediately rose. After a moment of meditation, he gave a very heavy promise - the supervisor of the National Prison is not something that can get along with. It is a place where powerful children are piled up. Without a background, even if they have money, they can't get in. Not to mention how strong the teachers are, and how many connections they can make in it, just by relying on the identity of a prison student, you can directly participate in the palace examination, which can attract countless scholars in the world to bend their waist.
"Your Highness's love, the little one can't repay you. Thank Your Highness for your kindness!"
Wang Haibin has been in the officialdom after all. He knows that the Guozi prison is the cradle of the official eunuchs. However, as long as he is not too stupid, he can basically get into the official hat. In addition, with the background of Li Xian, it can be said that his young son has stepped into the future of the eunuchs with one foot, which can be said to be unlimited. Wang Haibin I couldn't keep calm anymore. I fell to my knees and kowtowed to be loyal.
"Well, I remember this. Wang Zhuangshi, please get up. I have two things to tell you."
Li Xian was not pretentious and calmly accepted Wang Haibin's big gift. Finally, he waved his hand and ordered with awe.
"Yes, Your Highness, please order!"
Hearing Li Xian's words, Wang Haibin did not dare to neglect. He stood up in a hurry, bowed, and replied respectfully.
"There are two routes on this chart, one is to Persia. This journey can not only be full of silk and porcelain to go straight to Persia, but also can be transported to Java in exchange for spices, and then to Persia, one to come and go, less for a year, and two more is enough. The profit can be as much as ten times. Ships can be given by the orphans, and the goods are also sold by the orphans. People But it is necessary for Wang Zhuangshi to recruit. Of course, Gu will also send some good hands in case of emergency. If Wang Zhuangshi is willing to do things for him, he will be regarded as an orphan. If there is a profit, he will give you 20%. I don't know if Wang Zhuangshi is willing or not? Li Xian pondered for a moment, didn't talk any more nonsense, and directly offered the conditions for recruitment.
"Your Highness, this can't be done. It's a matter for your Highness. I really don't dare to have such extravagant hope. Please take back your order."
Wang Haibin has been running in the sea all year round. He has always been a ship to buy shares, and the dividend he gets is only one and a half. At this time, when he heard that Li Xian gave the ship, goods, and 20% of the dividends, he was a little dizzy. How dare he really take Li Xian's and hurriedly said.
"There is no need for Wang Zhuangshi to refuse. The emperor is not short of hungry soldiers, not to mention that Gu is just a prince. In the end, he still wants to talk about it in the business. Wang Zhuangshi should take this money, so there is no need to discuss it again. But there are three orphans in the front. If there is a violation, then don't blame the lonely without mercy."
Li Xian is now extremely rich, and he is extremely indifferent in terms of money. The reason why he came up with such a big sailing plan this time is not to make a fortune, but to have other intentions. At this time, when he saw Wang Haibin's strong refusal, Li Xian just smiled and made a conclusion. Immediately, his face was suddenly solemn, and his evil anger was slightly exposed. A sentence.
"Your Highness, please give instructions!"
Li Xian's evil spirit has always been heavy. Although there was only a slight appearance at this time, it was not what Wang Haibin could afford. Being rushed by such sudden evil spirit, he couldn't help shivering. He didn't dare to say more and hurriedly bowed his promise.
"First, you have no choice but to play the flag of loneliness; second, the matter of the chart cannot be easily leaked to the outside world; thirdly, all the dangerous places in the Java islands have been taken down by the orphan, build a fortress to defend it, and there are natives who dare to resist, and there will be no mercy! If these three kings and heroes can do it, it's just an ordinary thing to be rich and noble. Even if you are a marquis, you can't see it. I hope you can do it!" The evil spirit on Li Xian's body was not restrained, but more a little more. With a straight face, he detailed the three elements one by one.
"Ah..."
Hearing Li Xian's words, Wang Haibin was shocked and dumbfounded - in his original expectation, Li Xian was going to engage in maritime transportation, but he didn't expect that Li Xian's move was to open up a remote place. He couldn't figure out what the use of those overseas wild places could be. For a moment, he didn't know. How to answer.
"What? Is it difficult for Wang Zhuangshi? Let's talk about it and listen to it.
Li Xian waited for a while and saw that Wang Haibin had never recovered, and his voice was a little chilly.
"Your Highness, please forgive me for saying that if you really follow this, it will take a long time, and the manpower and material resources required may not be small, and the small and small will not know Your Highness..."
When asked by Li Xian, Wang Haibin woke up and quickly calculated the account. He immediately found that the cost of the investment was amazingly high. At that moment, he couldn't stand it and said half of it.
"There is no need to worry about money and boats. I will let the shopkeeper Deng come forward and do everything. As for the manpower, although you let go to recruit, I will also arrange relevant people to help. All the benefits of this route can be thrown to the coast. Don't worry too much!"
Li Xian has long considered the investment, and the operating costs required are as much as a million. For this reason, Li Xian has begun to prepare as early as a few years ago. All types of ships customized by Lin Hu in Suzhou, Hangzhou and other places have been almost built. The only difference is the smart captain and a large number of It's just a skilled sailor, which is exactly what Li Xian invited Wang Haibin for.
"If so, there is no doubt about the little one. Everything is according to His Highness's will, and the little one is willing to die for His Highness!"
Li Xian had said this. Wang Haibin did not dare to hesitate any more. He bowed and hurriedly answered.
"It's so good. Previously, I only talked about the route to Persia. There have been ships on this route for a long time, but it's not much. You have traveled on a large scale, even if it's difficult, but it's not big. But the other route to the Americas is full of crises. It's nearly ten thousand miles away. It's difficult to go back and forth for a few years. If you are a little careless, you will be buried. It is not an exagong to say that the disaster of the ocean is to gamble with your life. However, in Gu's view, the importance of this route is especially on the route to Persia. There must be people who dare to die. If you can return successfully, you will promise here, and the participants will get the benefits together. As long as there are several seeds of plants produced in the Americas, the leader It can be awarded the title of marquis, and the meritorious person will be rewarded in turn. If you say nothing here, Wang Zhuangshi can choose his own person. After Li Xiangao Wang Haibin's words, he said what he was looking for on the second voyage, and at the same time, he opened a great appreciation.
"Plant seeds? Your Highness, please forgive the little ignorance, and please make it clear what the seeds you need.
As soon as Wang Haibin heard Li Xian's statement, he was confused. He really didn't understand that Li Xian's so popular result was just for some plant seeds. He couldn't help but be curious and hurried to ask questions.
"Wang Zhuangshi asked well. There is a detailed description of these seeds here, and even the elements of seed preservation. If you can get this, it is really a matter of Da Lisheji." Although Li Xian was a mixed official in the officialdom at that time, he came up from the township. He was quite proficient in farming and had already prepared the relevant portraits and detailed descriptions of the seeds needed. At this time, when he heard Wang Haibin asking, he casually picked up a pile of manuscripts from several children and handed them to Wang Haibin.
"Corn, peanuts, potatoes, sweet potatoes?"
Wang Haibin has always made a living on the water. He doesn't know much about farming, but Wu Gu still knows it. At this time, all the plants contained in the stack of manuscripts have never been heard of, and his eyes can't help straightened up. He can't figure out how Li Xian can spend such a lot of money to make such a thing.
"Yes, it's just these four things. If someone can come for Gu Luo, there will be no difference in the reward of what Gu said!"
Li Xian did not explain the intention of these four seeds, but once again emphasized the meaning of reward.
"Your Highness has a life, and the little one should serve you. However, please forgive the little one's direct words. This matter is extremely difficult. If it can be delayed for several years, you can first train an elite soldier on the Persian route, or it may be expected to succeed. If Your Highness can believe it, Xiao Xiao is willing to lead the team in person at that time!"
Li Xian's appreciation is not high. Although Wang Haibin is cautious by nature, he can't help but be moved by it. He can't wait to lead people to the Americas immediately. But when he thinks of the risks, he immediately calms down. After repeatedly calculating the territory for a long time, he cautiously makes suggestions.
"Yes, it's time. If Wang Zhuangshi can think about this, I can rest assured. Well, I'm waiting for the good news!"
Li Xian said so much that he is not only introducing the situation, but also examining Wang Haibin's intention - Deng Cheng is a careful person. He must have already sent someone to verify Wang Haibin's business level. Otherwise, he would not dare to bring Li Xian. Therefore, for Wang Haibin's ability, Li Xian did not It needs to be checked. The person who is concerned is just his character. He deliberately puts out a heavy reward twice, that is, to see if this person will be in a mess because of the heavy reward. Although he deliberately moves, he never forgets the foundation of safety, and Li Xianzi is completely relieved...
