If the land of North America is to be developed, trade with China will inevitably be very strong.
Therefore, Li Sheng knew very well that in the future, affairs in North America would be closely linked to China, and that meant that overseas trade and even working overseas would become as natural as eating and drinking.
At that time, no matter how the population of North America changes from the European population to the people of China, the general trend of the world will be different, but there is no doubt that Qiongzhou Island will become very popular. At that time, there will still be many tourists in this tourist resort.
There is an old store that has been in operation for many years, and naturally there is no need to talk about its commercial value - there is still a lot of room for appreciation!
And more importantly, in addition to the room for appreciation, Qiongzhou Island is also the only place that Hangzhou must pass through to go to Southeast Asia and then to the Tianzhu subcontinent. No matter how you think about it in the future, it will still be a promising place. What's more, although Datang currently plans
There are two major maritime military bases, one is Hangzhou Port and the other is Saint Virgin Port - but according to Li Sheng's experience, no, it is predicted that Hangzhou Port and Saint Virgin Port will soon become purely commercial ports, because Li Sheng
Know for sure.
Managing the world and coordinating the country, this is the Tang Dynasty. No, it doesn't matter whether this is the national policy of the Tang Dynasty or not, because this is already the "character" of China. And to achieve that step, only two major
Military bases are obviously not enough. The key to these two places is that they are too suitable for commercial operations. When the scale of maritime trade increases further, we will have to compete with the navy for "bandwidth" - this will definitely not satisfy the strategy of overseas management.
It will also affect the scale of maritime trade.
We have to find other ways to open up other sites and build more ports.
Land management is difficult because the Western Region is still inland after all. This territory that China cannot give up has no other way but to use infrastructure to solve it in the long term.
As for the sea, although Li Sheng had never even gone to court, he was quite sure of the court's intentions.
When he met Li Er and others again, Li Sheng had just finished discussing the supply of goods with Ying'er - building a commercial district on Qiongzhou Island, it was actually not difficult to get a dazzling array of goods.
Because after all, this place is still located in the network of trade hotspot routes such as Hangzhou, Saint Virgin Port, Southeast Bay, Tianzhu Subcontinent, and the Persian Gulf, and it is a quite core area - objectively speaking, the current Qiongzhou Island
Although it still hasn't become more prosperous, the people have indeed become a lot richer quietly.
However, the so-called no shortage of goods means that there is no shortage of goods for maritime merchants to travel north and south - but Qiongzhou Island is engaged in comprehensive development, not just tourism development - at least not at the moment. This stage is still in the Tang Dynasty after all.
How can the common people find the conditions to travel? Therefore, the business they do is naturally the business of passing maritime merchants.
And since it is a business for maritime merchants, then the question arises, why do maritime merchants specifically come to the shore to consume the goods on their ships?
Admittedly, this logic is not absolute. In fact, there is also a business of accepting goods from maritime traders from the south and selling them to those from the north, and Li Sheng judged that this might be the biggest market demand in the first stage of this commercial enterprise.
This kind of business is equivalent to maritime trade. To put it bluntly, what we are doing is equivalent to resale trade. If the maritime merchants want to consume like that on Qiongzhou Island, it must be the maritime merchants from the south who eat a lot of the maritime merchants from the north.
The goods may be exactly the opposite, or may be staggered depending on the route, but what is certain is that the volume will be very large.
In fact, Li Sheng's development zone in Qiongzhou Island is not just for profit at this time and place. Therefore, although the initial profits from this transaction are more generous, it is dispensable to Li Sheng. The main direction of attack is of course this.
The other part is the service industry itself.
So, for Qiongzhou Island, rare and rare goods and services must of course come from Chang'an, Lingzhou.
For this reason, Li Sheng has only recently returned to Chang'an - where material achievements are gathered in China and are not associated with maritime merchants, of course they have to find and collect them in Chang'an.
But then again, although the workload is not small and Li Sheng expects to be delayed for a few more days, he will inevitably meet acquaintances, such as the guys who used to work at Zizhenzhai, but Li Sheng still
Unexpectedly, I would encounter Lao Li and his gang!
Of course, what made Li Sheng feel lucky this time was that Changsun Wuji, a high official in the court, did not appear.
There is no doubt that Li Sheng would not know that Changsun Wuji was because a lot of work needed to be done at home to solve the army strategy problem in northwest Europe. Changsun Wuji was an important minister of the Tang Dynasty.
Of course, if you have any difficulties, you have to follow the emperor's actions - but at this time, the solution lies in the advent of the musket, so naturally it does not belong to Changsun Wuji's business - at the same time, because although Li Sheng does not know many things,
But the idea is right. Changsun Wuji has a prince's nephew, a nephew like Li Sheng, so of course he has to avoid danger. Otherwise, you, a relative, have friends with the prince every day and exert influence on his children. What do you want to do?
So of course it won't appear again this time.
But Li Sheng was still very shocked, because this coincidence was too outrageous.
Is it normal to meet the same group of people so frequently? Impossible, but the moment he thought about it, Li Sheng suddenly realized where this place was.
This is the Lion Building. Thinking about it this way, Li Sheng understood that these guys are businessmen, and they are the type who mainly run various businesses. Since they are this type, they will appear frequently in the Lion Building.
It's just a natural thing.
As for Li Sheng's thoughts, this time, this time there is really nothing wrong with it, because that's really what happened this time.
The reason why Li Er and others came to the Lion House for a drink was, of course, because they were happy that the problem was solved, and the second reason was because this place is the Lion House, which may not be the most expensive in Chang'an, but it is definitely the restaurant with the best reputation.
simple idea,
Although there are various reasons and ideas that can be explained in depth, the reason why Li Er and others appeared in this situation is exactly what Li Sheng guessed!
So when Du Ruhui, Fang Xuanling and others came up to him with smiles, Li Sheng lowered his face and said, "You guys are not very good at doing business, but I think you are very good at enjoying life!"
"Hehe, we old guys just have better food. Why should you be surprised, Master? It just so happens that the Lion House has new dishes today."
