Lei Yuan also slapped the table a few times, and two words burst out from his teeth: "Dream!"
Sun Yu's face turned pale.
Lei Yuan looked at Sun Yu, sneered and acted as if he could turn the table over and leave at any time.
Since it is a business, it is inevitable to offer a price everywhere and pay back the money. Sun Yu is so ill-fated and evil, just an expression of an attitude. If you really want to determine what, you must go through a long process, from testing to induction, from induction to clarification, which is both patience and strength. It requires both hardness and softness, and both softness and hardness, and it is not so easy to decide.
Sure enough, at this time, Feng Xi repeatedly said: "Don't worry, two generals Fenwei, come on, drink some water to moisten your throat."
As the General of the Cavalry and Cavalry, he was the representative of the Marquis of Wu to some extent. Lei Yuan was not easy to do anything, so he nodded slightly to him and drank some water.
Interestingly, Lei Yuan and Sun Yu have the same general names, both of which are General Fenwei. The two General Fenwei are like fighting cocks at this moment, not for the territory, but for the price of celadon produced in Jiangdong. Judging from the two of them being verbally quarreled and unable to give up their own territory, I am afraid that they will really fight on the battlefield in the future, and that will be the case.
Previously, when Lei Yuan discussed with Guan Yu and Pan Jun, he felt that Sun Yu was the secret spy leader responsible for infiltration into Jingzhou, intending to lure civil and military officials in Jingzhou by bribery of wealth and goods, trying to lay a stumbling block for Wu Hou's subsequent operations. Now it seems that this is indeed Sun Yu's task, but his task is more than this.
The most important identity of this gentleman is the person in charge of conducting foreign trade on behalf of the Sun family in Jiangdong.
If time goes by for more than ten years, the world will be full of wars and chaos, and blood flows everywhere, and white bones are like mountains, so there is no word for trade. The powerful people with a little strength gather the people, build walls, repair armor and soldiers, and be self-sufficient, which is true.
This situation has gradually changed in recent years. As the three families gradually formed the situation of the three families' scattered forces, the originally divided into fragments was gradually integrated into one, and the wall wall that was originally isolated from the outside was opened and re-organized under the regime. For example, the prefect of Runan, Man Chong, signed by Cao Gong, once captured more than 20 wall walls in Runan, named more than 20 households. The Sun and Liu families also acted the same.
What followed was the gradual recovery of trade, and merchants struggling among countless ruins and piles of corpses once again embarked on the road of selling profits.
There are controls on merchants, especially those who travel across political regions, whether Cao Gong in the north or Sun and Liu in the south. The content includes the management of types of trade goods, such as strictly controlling the inflow of luxury goods and the outflow of military supplies; and also the management of merchant trade qualifications, such as the Sixteen Cuju Alliance established by Lexiang City.
Through management, the regime not only obtains business tax revenue, but also ensures the security of the regime, and also maintains the stability of the domestic monetary system and material supply.
However, this kind of management is limited by the control of the regime, and it is impossible to truly be airtight. There are always countless loopholes to be exploited. The more the regime regulates, the larger the price difference between goods in various places will be, and the more arouses the merchants' determination to fight.
In this regard, with the acquiescence of Duke Xuande, Lei Yuan used Lexiang as a special market for bulk goods and cross-regional trade, leaving a vacancy for off-market small transactions. In Jiangdong, Wu Hou could not actually control the many major tribes under his rule. The major tribes crossed the boundaries openly and secretly and wanted to make profits. In order to maintain its own strength, the Sun family in Jiangdong must also participate in it, and even cut to the largest part.
In the past few days, Lei Yuan has discussed this with Sun Yu many times.
The trade between the two families is the reason why Sun Yu tried his best to collude with Mi Fang. With him and Mi Fang, he was able to trade various scarce materials such as food, weapons, horses, salt without any scruples, and both sides had huge profits. Therefore, when Mi Fang was eradicated and lost his source of wealth, he was so angry that he actually kidnapped Mrs. Sun.
Now that Mi Fang has lost her power, many materials can no longer be traded normally. Only sea salt and cloth can be sold. If no new materials are added to the transaction, the Jiangdong tribes will continue to release Jiangdong's blood in order to obtain luxury goods such as Shu brocade in Yizhou!
The benefits obtained by the great clans will not be used to the Jiangdong regime, nor will they be used to recruit warriors and follow the Wuhou to fight. They will only rely on this to ask the fields and ask the clans to expand their power. What is the significance of creating a prosperous and beautiful scenery in Jiangdong in vain?
Therefore, the Sun family must constantly compete with the Jiangdong clan for commercial interests, just as the Sun family has fought with the Jiangdong clan in all aspects of military and political affairs for many years. Without this, they cannot implement military and national plans; without this, they cannot maintain the Sun family's dominant position over the Jiangdong clan.
To be honest, Lei Yuan did not expect Sun Yu to have such insights. It seems that this Sun family, who has very few military and political talents, can be valued by Wu Hou and entrusted with the important tasks of Jingzhou, which is indeed unique.
However, Lei Yuan did not intend to easily meet Sun Yu's requirements.
Decades ago, lacquerware in Nanyang became popular all over the world. Later, the Central Plains was in war and many craftsmen died in Jingzhou. Lei Yuan heard that Xuande Duke had intended to ask Pan Jun to come forward and reorganize them and incorporate them into the management of the worker officials. Considering that the lacquerware in Shu County and Guanghan County were also famous, Lei Yuan did not think that Jiangdong's lacquerware had any competitiveness.
As for celadon, in Lei Yuan's impression, these materials were not popular in Jingyi. It was probably because the war had not stopped and the ceramics were fragile and inconvenient to carry. However, some people took the immortal characteristics of porcelain and used them to bury them... In this way, Zhao Xiang could not use those, which was very unlucky.
The question is, what must be obtained from Jiangdong? This is the so-called "balanced trade". What is the point of selling Jingyi's specialties to get some coins in vain? Over the years, coins have become increasingly inappropriate!
"Where are the ships?" Lei Yuan suddenly asked, "I heard that Wu Hou set up many ships to build ships, maybe we can..."
"Continue it, this is impossible!"
Sun Yu shook his head flatly: "The ships in Jiangdong are just like horses in Hebei, Central Plains. They are important weapons of the military and national lifeline, and they really cannot be traded. Moreover, Jingchu itself lives in the upper reaches of Jiangdong, and the two families share the great rivers. If the ships give you the advantage, then what will Jiangdong rely on to protect it?"
For a moment, both of them were a little disappointed, and the cabin was silent for a moment.
Feng Xi interrupted at the right time: "Shuzhi is not here to watch our army attacking Wancheng? Why should we hold it in the cabin and discuss money with General Zhongyi? Come on, come on, let's go out to see the battle situation!"
"Okay." Lei Yuan smiled and stood up.
Chapter completed!
