Zhan Zhumen

Chapter 367 Thoughts
When Yang Fu and Yang returned to the city, Huo Xi knew that Yang Fu had gone back to Zhuangzi, and persuaded Yang.

"Mother, did you really agree to go to sea with uncle? Didn't you just stabilize him temporarily?"

Yang Fu stared at Huo Xi, thinking he couldn't hear.Of course he could tell whether his sister really agreed or falsely agreed.

Seeing Yang Fu's frowning face, Yang Shi gave him a hard look, and if he froze again, she would take back her words.Yang Fu touched his nose and went out.

"Mom, do you really agree? You just need to say, I'll find someone to watch my uncle, and he won't even have a chance to sneak away."

Yang sighed: "He's grown up, I can't control him anymore, let him go if he wants to go. In the past two years, there have been a lot of boats going to sea. If we don't agree with him, he will secretly run away with other boats. , where can we look for him, even if we want to hear a letter, we can’t find a place.”

Huo Xi actually understood Yang Fu's desire to go out and see the world, she also wanted to, very much.It's just that she still has things to do, Nian'er hasn't grown up yet, and she hasn't avenged her mother yet.

Huo Xi suddenly felt melancholy.

Sitting on the ground in front of Yang's knees, with her head tilted on her lap: "Mother, do you blame me? If I didn't want to go to sea, uncle wouldn't want to go to sea with the boat. If he doesn't go out, mother doesn't have to worry so much." .”

Mrs. Yang touched her head: "Mother, why do you blame you? Your uncle wants to go to sea, it is his own ambition, it has nothing to do with you. If there is no our boat, he will take someone else's boat. Let him Go, he wants to see what the other side of the sea looks like, so let him go. After seeing enough, he will take it easy. Mother has also figured it out, so let him go. "

"Mother, uncle will definitely come back safely. Dongyang is close, and there are many boats going there from Ningbo. We and others have passed by. Mother, don't worry."

How could Mrs. Yang not be worried.

They were fishing in the river, and the waves might capsize, let alone in the sea.

And what does Dongyang look like, and will it be bullied?When Yang thought that he might not come back, her heart ached so much that she couldn't sleep.

Seeing that his sister and niece both agreed for him to go to sea, Yang Fu jumped up and down with joy.

Went to Qian's house to eat Qian Xiaoxia's wedding wine, with big smiles on his face, unknowingly thinking that he was the groom.

Huo Xi didn't go to Qian Xiaoxia's wedding banquet.Only Yang Fu went on behalf of the Huo family.

Unexpectedly, when he returned to the city, he brought Ma Xiang back.

"Brother Xiang wants to go out to sea together?" Huo Xi was stunned, looking back and forth between Yang Fu and Ma Xiang, how did his uncle trick them into going out to sea together?

"Don't look at me. I didn't fool him." Yang Fu knew what Huo Xi was thinking when he saw Huo Xi's expression.

If you don't fool him, can he know that you are going to sea?

Yang Fu touched his nose, well, he was a little complacent.At the wedding banquet, I drank a few more glasses and babbled a few more words. I was also worried that I would not be able to come back, so I said goodbye to my past friends in advance.

Unexpectedly, Ma Xiang also said that he wanted to go to sea.

Speaking of brothers Maji and Maxiang, they can be regarded as excellent partners of the Huo family.These years, he has been following in the footsteps of Huo's family, helping to receive and sell goods, and helping to transport goods to various shops.Also made some money.

His elder brother, Maggie, had bought land in the country a few years earlier, built a house, married a wife, and now has a son and a daughter.

Ma Xiang also said that he was kissed, and he had said it a few years ago.

Unexpectedly, they were supposed to get married three years ago, but the girl's father passed away, and she had to keep mourning for three years.This year it was hard to wait for the girl to be filial piety, her mother remarried again and took her to her new husband's house.She fell in love with someone else again, and she divorced Ma Xiang not long ago.

Ma Xiang was depressed.Waiting for the other party for more than three years, now in his twenties, he was divorced.

As soon as he heard that Yang Fu was going to sea, he immediately responded.

"Brother Xiang, your brother also agrees with you to go to sea?" There are only two brothers left in the Ma family, can Ma Ji agree?
"My brother disagreed at first, but I wanted to go out and have a look. Now I am alone, my family has my brother and my nephew, and I am not missing one. Besides, when I come back from the sea, if there is life, take this trip With the money I earn, I will also buy a small house in the outer city, and I will hang out with Yang Fu in the future."

On this trip to sea, five companies jointly hired sailors and boatmen, and paid a lot of money.Ordinary boatmen are given 100 taels, and if they come back safely, they will be rewarded with 50 taels.If you die, you will pay another hundred taels of silver.

Many people with difficult families still want to give it a go.

Ma Xiang has been with the Huo family all these years, so he should have no shortage of money.It should be that the marriage is not going well, and I want to go to sea to get rid of the bad luck.

Huo Xi smiled and nodded at him: "Okay, Brother Xiang is welcome to join. I will let my uncle lead you to sign the life and death documents, and then you will receive the employment money."

Yang Fu happily led Ma Xiang there.

There is a good friend who goes to sea together, and this trip is not lonely anymore.Qian Xiaoxia also wanted to go, but how could his parents be willing?His newly married wife, the Yue family would not agree either.

In the next few days, several fishermen who made good friends also came to express their desire to go to sea.If you go out, you can get one hundred and fifty taels. If you come back, you can buy a few acres of land in the countryside and build a few tile-roofed houses.

After choosing in this way, Guangfengshui's [-] people have been assembled, including Zhufeng and the others.

"Xi'er, who are those four people?" Yang Fu was a little surprised at the manpower arranged by Huo Xi.

Huo Xi called them to meet Yang Fu and told them to protect Yang Fu along the way.When Yang Fu saw them appear and then leave, his eyes almost popped out.

"It doesn't matter who they were before, they are members of our family now. The four of them will protect you along the way." With the four of them following Yang Fu, Huo Xi felt more at ease.

After seeing their skills, Yang Fu felt a little more at ease.

The five firms got together again before going out to sea to discuss specific matters.Huo Xi followed Yang Fu and Shen Qianzhong and attended the meeting.

During this trip, each family was in charge of their own goods and manpower, but in order to avoid disagreements, it was stipulated that Langguangge would take the lead. On board and after docking, the other four families would follow the arrangements of Langguangge's management.All other matters are discussed.

The matter was agreed upon, and the sailing time was set, and each family began to load the goods on board.

The family could only bring one thousand shi of goods, Guangfengshui brought [-] shi of white sugar and rock sugar, and the rest were silk, tea, porcelain, various handicrafts, etc.

Before leaving, Huo Xi had a talk with Yang Fushen.

"This time, uncle, I will exchange more copper, tin, red copper, flame nitrate, sulfur, and Japanese knives, etc., and I will exchange more silver for the silver produced by Shijian Yinshan in the Japanese country."

Huo Xi told Yang Fu the way she saw a Western businessman get rich.

There was a Western businessman who first exchanged a large amount of silver in Japan, and then went to a gold-producing country in Southeast Asia. He exchanged silver for gold at a ratio of four to one, and then transported the gold back to their country, and then exchanged one gold for ten coins. The ratio of two silvers was exchanged for a large amount of silver, thus obtaining great wealth.

Yang Fu understood: "Then I will bring more gold."

Now the Wei Dynasty exchanges one tael of gold for ten taels of silver. Gold and silver are hard currencies. He takes gold to Japan, and two gold can be exchanged for thirty silver. .
