Go back to ancient times to be a royal merchant

I have been to the imperial study room many times. For the first time, Wang Xiujin felt that the study room was too big. There was only him standing in the center of the hall. After arriving at the lamp stand, the light did not turn on. Will the fourth prince become angry and wipe the neck of the person who brought the lamp, "I report to the fourth prince, it won't light up." In order not to make people die inexplicably, Wang Xiujin Decided to tell the truth.

"Ah?" The fourth prince looked at Wang Xiujin in confusion.The emperor who was sitting on the dragon chair raised his eyebrows. How did Wang Xiujin know that the lamp would not turn on?

Wang Xiujin had a headache. He knew that he had rushed, but there were only a few of the outer nuts that were brought back. If he were to beheaded, with the emperor's temper, he would definitely behead them all, and only one would be beheaded. It is estimated that even these outer nuts would be killed. Those who pull back will also be implicated.Wang Xiujin bit the bullet, faced the scrutinizing eyes of the emperor and the fourth prince, and said, "The last time the officials who went to sea came back, I heard that there are bright things overseas. A capable person." Taking a breath, Wang Xiujin continued, "This thing is different from Daliang's luminous pearl. The luminous pearl glows naturally, but this one needs to be powered on."

After listening to the fourth prince, he looked at the transparent thing in his hand, and then at the thing placed on his father's royal case, "Can't it be lit?" The fourth prince looked at the thing in his hand hesitantly, and then gestured again. Some didn't believe it, so they tried it, and the result was exactly as Wang Xiujin said...it didn't light up.Wang Xiujin wanted to cover his face even more. He felt that the current fourth prince was like a child. The more he was not allowed to do it, the more he had to try. Obviously there were results, but he still had to try a few times, trying to prove that what others said was true. correct.

The fourth prince tried it a few times, but his face became dull. The emperor looked at his son's expression on his face, but he didn't agree with it in his heart. Ah, the fourth son's temper!I don't know if he was left by him, or if he was blinded by power, and he lost his previous integrity. Now, if others say that this thing can't be lit, without further explanation, the fourth child keeps trying, and he He didn't think much about it, but it was Wang Xiujin who spoke, and the fourth child had a close relationship with him, but he still made such a move, which made the emperor think more.

Wang Xiujin didn't know that the emperor was hesitant about the fourth prince. Looking at the appearance of the fourth prince, Wang Xiujin was a little irritable in his heart, but he was calm on the surface, and didn't say anything else.

"You just said electricity, can we get through now?" The fourth prince finally stopped trying, his face was gone, and he looked at Wang Xiujin with great interest.

The emperor gave his son a four-character evaluation of "moody".One moment his face was gloomy as if he wanted to kill someone, and he didn't listen to others, but the next moment it seemed nothing happened. The emperor felt that he didn't understand his son, and he had better teach his son while he was doing well.

"Chen..." Wang Xiujin was too embarrassed to say it, what should I say?The sons of the royal family who just said it were tricked by someone. Although the people brought back also work in the power plant, they are not professional personnel, and they don't even know the principle of power generation?It is estimated that if the emperor does not say it on the face, he will have opinions on him in his heart, and what he said will definitely offend people.Even in an unfamiliar place, people in the royal family should not be deceived.If the emperor became angry from embarrassment, would he kill him, or Wai Guoren who had fooled the children of the Daliang royal family?

"If you can, you can, if you can't, you can't. When did Huang Shang hesitate to speak?" The emperor put his mind on teaching his son and focused on Huang Shang.

"No, there are too few people, and we can't figure it out in a short time." Not only those questions before, if he hadn't been asked by the emperor, Wang Xiujin would have almost forgotten that the wires needed to transmit electricity, and coal is needed for power generation, but it doesn't just need to be burned. If it wasn't for the wrong place, Wang Xiujin wanted to pat his forehead, but he was even more shocked in his heart. Has Wai Guoren entered the industrial age?So, did they appear with various machines?Once again, Wang Xiujin came up with the idea of ​​going overseas in person, but it just passed by in a flash.

Wang Xiujin knew that even if he dared to say that he would go, overseas trips would not be possible, not even "possible".Wang Xiujin went through the competent people around him, not to mention picking out a few clever people. Starting to learn foreign language from now on, it should be useful when the next big ship goes to sea.

After verifying that the bulb would not light up when there was no electricity, Wang Xiujin left the palace and looked at Li Sushan who had been waiting outside the palace. drenched.At this time, he couldn't take this into consideration, and urgently wanted to meet the candidate in his heart first.

The emperor called several members of the royal family who had gone to sea into the palace, and asked them why the thing was not lit when it was placed on the round seat. After seeing it, they thought for a while before they realized it, and then they all looked like quails. , I wish I could learn from a tortoise and retract my head into the shell.The emperor didn't lose his temper, but began to ask them carefully about their overseas affairs.

These few people talked about the things they encountered overseas very seriously, and they didn't just talk about it to make the emperor smile, and they didn't go all over the overseas countries for the sake of Zhang Xianliang, and they made comments very impartially.The emperor frowned slightly after hearing this, "So, overseas countries have more merits than my world? Colonization?" This word appeared in the emperor's mouth for the first time.

The children of the royal family explained in detail what the colonization they saw was very serious. The emperor knocked on the table, and he suddenly had some thoughts. How could he bear the small countries around him that were eager to move towards his territory? Mo Why not designate these small countries as colonies, send some soldiers to garrison them, set up a fourth-rank official position, and establish a yamen... The emperor has already planned the general plan in his mind, and the ministers need to fill in the specifics. If someone jumps out and says something insulting The demeanor of a great country, then, he will not use the person who jumped out.He is not attacking other countries, but just helping them govern the country. He is "friendly", and he does not humiliate the style of a great country's monarch.

At the same time, the emperor decided that the next time he goes out to sea, he should send more young and smart people to accompany him. These people don't have to follow the boat back, but they can stay there for a while, see more overseas, and learn more. It is to be able to learn all the good things from overseas. The ancients said that it is called to make up for its shortcomings. You can’t think that Daliang is prosperous just because the treasury of Daliang is now abundant. Some children in the righteous hall, but the first thing to do is to let these people learn the overseas language, and we can't let people draw circles and jump into them foolishly.

When the big ship from overseas returns, what everyone wants to know most is how much Wang Huang Shang has earned. The merchants who have been watching before now want to inquire. They can’t get along with Huang Shang, but they can find the most trusted one Shopkeeper Wang.In recent days, shopkeeper Wang's door was knocked down and leveled. Shopkeeper Wang was very annoyed, but he couldn't drive people out. They were all colleagues, so how could they easily offend.

Wang Xiujin was delighted after listening to shopkeeper Wang's complaints, "They want to know, after the liquidator finishes the settlement, you tell them the number, they believe it or not, believe it, next time they go to sea, they will definitely intervene. Bar, we will just withdraw some things at that time. We can’t even supply goods to the people in Daliang. For overseas, it’s better to tighten up. This business will make a lot of money, and it can be broken down into annual figures. , I’m afraid there won’t be that many.”

Shopkeeper Wang nodded, the boss was right.

"Although we are going to withdraw from the overseas market, it does not mean that we will not participate in the big ship going to sea. Next time I go to sea, I want to send some people. The main reason is to see what is available overseas for my own use. The previous few times I entrusted people to act. A little more." Wang Xiujin didn't want to complain about the few people brought back by the royal children, wait, those people brought back are still useful, they can be foreign teachers!It's just that whether they are right or not, they are fooling a group of people who have never learned it, and they don't necessarily know.

Wang Xiujin turned his mind again and again, thinking that he still believed those people, at worst he listened to them, and paid attention to the labels on those people's heads, and dared to fool them, he just hissed.

"I would like to make a trip for my boss." Shopkeeper Wang thought it over and felt that it was most suitable for him to go.

Wang Xiujin, who was just thinking about it, was interrupted by shopkeeper Wang's words. He was taken aback for a moment, hesitated, and then laughed loudly, "You misunderstood me, I want to send some clever people who are 21 or [-] years old. If it is feasible, I probably won’t come back with the big ship that went.” Wang Xiujin wondered how long it had been since Waiguo Renjin and the industrial age.There are not many machines, "There are also things brought back by the big ship from overseas. You can take people to welcome them back tomorrow. While everyone is paying attention to the return of the big ship, sell the things at a high price!"

How can it be possible to not make money in import and export trade, and how can it be possible to share the same amount as the domestic one. If it is true that the amount is the same, who will take the risk and do smuggling.The reason why Wang Xiujin gave up this source of income was very simple. He didn't want his family to dominate, so he created a scene where a hundred flowers bloomed at the right time.In this way, even if the monarch is changed one day, he will no longer be a young bird, and will not be regarded as a target.

Shopkeeper Wang was very quick in his work, and brought back all the things the next day, thinking about how to price these things so that the owner could make more money.

Wang Xiujin looked at the things he pulled back, and shook his head tut-tut. He really didn't have any interest in choosing these things. The glass products looked very clear, but they were not as beautiful as crystals in his eyes. The price is not cheap, Wang Xiujin is a little worried, whether these things will fall into his hands.
