Chapter 411 Overseas Trade
"No, no, after talking so much, you should be able to tell us what we are doing here!" Zeng Pan asked from the bottom of his soul.

Tangning was a little confused, "Didn't I tell you before, we are here to exchange gold!"

"It's really gold! I thought you were making fun of us!" Zeng Pan was very excited, and his voice was raised several degrees, which could startle the birds in the forest.

Tangning sneered, "I know none of you believe me! What you hear is believing what you see is believing. After two days, you will find out!"

Because of Tangning's words, everyone endured the harsh conditions and lived there.

Luzon's hot and humid climate is very suitable for the growth of mosquitoes. As soon as it gets dark, some inexplicable little things start to act collectively. Thick smoke from the fire will disperse those things.

The crowd was completely convinced by her move, and Zi Ming asked Tangning calmly, "It seems that the governor is very proficient in medicine."

Tang Ning shrugged and explained casually, "When you go out, you need to know some common sense. Everything grows and restrains each other, so there must be something here that can restrain those bugs. In addition, I have been here before, and I know the magical effects of some plants. It's normal."

Zi Ming nodded, reluctantly accepting Tangning's explanation.

In the past two days, the people in the tribe did not bother them too much except to bring them food, and even kept the children away from this place.

At first, Zi Ming thought it was because the people here knew the rules, but later he realized that it was because they all carried weapons. Although the people here are relatively backward, their intuition is extremely keen. Even children know that the things they wear are dangerous and should not be easily provoked. .

Just as Zi Ming and the others were deep in thought, the tribe's chief came with a group of people. Each of them carried a large basket on their backs, which was filled with gold mines that could blind everyone's eyes.

So, Zeng Pan and others, who claimed to be well-informed, were all stunned, staring blankly at the baskets of gold mines on the ground, and whispered incomprehensible language in their ears.

After negotiating with the patriarch for a long time, Tangning turned her head and told Zi Ming, "Have someone bring over some boxes of food, pots and pans that we brought."

Zi Ming asked stupidly, "How much?"

In the end, it was Tangning who went into battle by herself and ordered people to pick and choose, and made fifty large boxes of goods and handed them to the patriarch.

The patriarch inspected the goods in front of Tangning and the others, and the clansmen who followed were also amazed and asked around Tangning. Most of the women were interested in gorgeous materials, while the men had a special liking for those iron tools and cooking utensils. The elderly liked food, and Tangning gave them a lot of syrup, which won the hearts of many children.

It can be said that these things fully meet the needs of the other party.

For the people here, the gold mine is of little use to them, and it is simply a profit to exchange so many good things.

Tangning took the opportunity to propose to exchange more gold mines. The patriarch was also from Shuangli, so he took Tangning and the others to the inland area closer to the center to start business with other tribes. Everyone worked on the island for nearly a month, almost All the things I brought were changed out before I was ready to return.

Watching the road gradually go away, Zi Ming found Tangning, bowed respectfully, and said, "Commander, they still have many untapped gold mines here, should we report to the emperor to send someone to take this piece of land? "

Tangning shook her head without even thinking about it, "Of course it's good to be able to occupy this place, but don't forget, how far is Daqi from this place, and how can the emperor completely control this place? Don't work so hard to make wedding dresses for others. At that time, the gain will outweigh the loss.

In addition, although the people here are primitive, their fighting power is not weak. If they want to occupy this place, they must fight the natives here. Now we have to deal with the Liao thieves, so how can we have extra energy here?Rather than having one more enemy, how about a friendly trade like this, such a little thing in exchange for a boatload of gold mines, isn't this a good deal? "

Zi Ming fell silent. It was because it was too cost-effective that he had the idea of ​​occupying Luzon. However, Tangning's words were like a bucket of cold water waking her up. After a while, he sighed helplessly and bowed to Tangning again, "The governor said Yes, I was confused."

Tangning's eyes were clear, and she smiled, "It's okay, anyone will not be indifferent when they see so many gold mines for the first time, just adjust it yourself, I will take you this time, and the emperor will send someone to negotiate with them later. I can’t be asked to come forward every time, I want to go to a farther place to see!”

"A place farther away!" Zi Ming lost his composure.

Tangning nodded her head as a matter of course, "It's hard for me to get someone to make a long-distance ship. It's not just for Luzon. The world is so big, there must be a lot of good things. If you don't go out for a walk, you will learn more! But these are things for later. , the most urgent task is to send these gold mines back to Xijing first, besides, my sister-in-law is also entering the palace, we are afraid that we will wait for her to get married before leaving Xijing."

Zi Ming's heart was racing when he heard that, thinking of the scene Tangning described, he couldn't help but start to make up his mind.

Seeing his dumbfounded look, Tangning shook her head and ignored him.

Qiu Jingming in the helm room was flipping through the account book. When he saw Tangning coming back, he said directly, "I had someone weigh it. The gold mine is about catties. The purity is very high. After refining, it should be seven to eight thousand catties. This trip at least multiplied the money given by the emperor several times."

Tangning buried herself in the soft bed, squinted her eyes contentedly, and muttered, "In this way, the Secretary of the Household Department won't look at me like a Pixiu."

"Hehe." Qiu Jingming burst out laughing.

Tangning continued: "This time, when I go back, I will have someone send the dowry of longevity to Xijing. My sister-in-law in Pingnan, even if she can't enter the palace like a queen, she can't be too shabby!"

This time Qiu Jingming did not dissuade him.

The long-voyage ship went all the way north, and after passing the south of the Lingnan, the weather changed suddenly. Everyone changed from bare shirts to jackets. For everyone, the climate is changing so fast that people are really caught off guard.

The emperor received the news from Zi Ming early on. After the voyage ship arrived in Shangzhou, a group of royal guards came to meet him immediately. Hundreds of carriages were prepared for transportation alone. The battle was terrifyingly large.

When these things were transported into Xijing, they immediately caused an uproar, and many people secretly sent people to inquire about the news.

Because the leader was An Guogong Dingbeihou Pingnanhou, these three people had nothing to do with those forces in Xijing, so even if everyone was curious, they couldn't find out anything, so they just quietly sent people to follow, and finally found that this group of people went directly to the palace.
