Chapter 293

After setting the goal, Sun Xin started to work.

After inquiring for the past two days, they already knew that the area they were in was Luzhou, east of Changbai Mountain. This area was originally the territory of the Bohai people. All of them were taken back by the Jinren.

The status of the Jurchens in Luzhou is the most respected, followed by the Bohai people, the Han people, and the Xi people.

It is most convenient to go from Koryo directly on the commercial road from Dengzhou to Jinguo. Luzhou is a must pass. Another place where Jinguo has foreign affairs is Subinfu, which is the part of Vladivostok in later generations, but that place is really It is too remote. In these days, it is said to be a prefecture, but its population is less than [-]. Most of them are various fishing and hunting peoples.

Luzhou is right next to the southern foot of Changbai Mountain, and the output of leather goods is high enough. If you want to build a leather factory, this is the most convenient place.

After confirming the plan, Sun Xin and the others will release news in this small town in the next time, looking for any local nobles who are willing to cooperate with them to set up a factory.

Although this place is remote, just as Sun Xin guessed before, the news of the arrival of the Song Dynasty's mission has already spread among the upper class here.

Not long after Sun Xin and the others released the news, someone from the Yang family found them.

The Bohai people have the same status as the Han people in the Jin Kingdom, but they have a high status in the Liao Kingdom. Sun Xin doesn’t have a deep memory of the Bohai people, but he also remembers that one of Wanyan Aguda’s advisers was Yang Pu, who was a Jurchen rebel from the Liao Kingdom. The best of the officials, upon questioning, it turns out that the Bohai Yang family is Yang Pu's close relative.

The Yang family is very powerful in Luzhou, and it is not difficult to cover a leather factory.

On the day of the official negotiation with the Yang family, Ma Zheng, the governor of the Song Dynasty, also came forward with Sun Xin's people.

The opening of a leather factory in Luzhou was not hidden from Ma Zheng, and Sun Xin's operation in the past few days also allowed him to see it.

It is not surprising that Sun Xin wants to open a commercial horse administration in the past. Sun Xin is a landlord, and being able to accompany him to the north is considered to be daring to do things. You can't ask someone to come to the north without asking for benefits, right?

Sun Xin took the initiative to say that once the matter was successful, he would give Ma Zheng a reward of [-] guan, and Ma Zheng immediately expressed his full support.

This time the Jin Guo Ma Zheng is just a civil servant on the front line of fire. Even if the matter is done, he can only ask the Tongguan Group for his interests. For trade, the two hundred guan is considered a windfall. Anyway, no one came to him in the building, and he was idle, so it was just right to go out to earn some extra money.

After Ma Zheng came forward, things went smoothly. Although the Bohai people have been Chinese for hundreds of years, the bottom-level logic still has the bold personality of the northern people. Since both parties feel that the conditions given by Sun Xin are suitable, they will not procrastinate.

The Yang family agreed to Sun Xin's plan to split the shares in half. The two parties jointly built a leather factory in Luzhou near the border of Korea.

When the contract was finalized, Lehe's hands were trembling. Even without counting the off-site factor of being able to win the power of the Supervisory Committee in Luzhou, just considering the market prospects, this leather factory operates every year. Da Song's profit was tens of thousands of guan, and most of the money for the construction of the factory was advanced by the Yang family. As long as they earned a year's profit, the accounts at the supervisory committee last year could basically be settled.

And the annual income of 5000 taels is also a great figure for the Yang family in Bohai, which is in a place of bitter cold. Then the Yang family offered to help Sun Xin underwrite hemp yarn in Luzhou.

These people had conducted investigations beforehand and learned that Sun Xin had a large hemp yarn industry in Dengzhou, but they didn't seem to know enough about it. Sun Xin said with a smile that their Luzhou would not be able to consume his hemp yarn production. I was also quite puzzled and asked how much hemp yarn Sun Xin could produce.

Sun Xin opened his mouth and said a figure of 400 million catties, which directly shocked the Yang family. Even Ma Zheng, who was sitting with him, looked at Sun Xin dumbfounded after reacting. This figure was almost comparable to that of Masha in Shandong Yields are comparable.

He originally thought that Sun Xin was just a rich landlord, but he didn't expect the other party to possess such a large production resource.

After learning about Sun Xin's production of hemp yarn and the astonishing price he charged, the members of the Yang family immediately re-discussed. Half an hour later, the other party came out with a much more enthusiastic attitude this time.

The Yang family said that as long as Sun Xin transported the hemp yarn to Luzhou, they could buy it at a price of seven renminbi per catty of hemp yarn. Seven cents was enough to pay back the original, Le Heting's eyes lit up, and he pulled Sun Xin's sleeves with his hands underneath.

But Sun Xin was unmoved, and only said that he wanted to go back and think about it.

The other party sent Sun Xindeng back to the post station, and also gave gifts, saying that this was a little meaning for the envoys of the Song Dynasty.

After closing the door, Le He was already beaming with joy: "I didn't expect them to eat such a large amount of goods. Why didn't they sell it just now? If they don't sell it, then we can talk about the price."

"I can see from their attitude that our linen yarn will definitely be sold in the Northland. Since it is so popular, why cooperate with their Yang family? I'm worried that their power is too small. Let's wait and see."

Less than two days after the negotiation with the Yang family ended, the Jurchen sent envoys to invite Sun Xin and others to continue their journey north before the new nobles came to visit.

Luzhou is not a place to talk about things, and the Jurchens also want Song people to experience their strength.

Hearing that they were leaving, Pan Jinlian said that she wanted to go with her. Sun Xin knew that she wanted to find some opportunities in the Kingdom of Jin, so she helped to say a few words, and Ma Zheng didn't object.

Pan Jinlian left Li Liangsi's coffin in Luzhou, and everyone followed the envoys to trek northwest.

After crossing the Yalu River from Luzhou, they entered the range of the Wanyan tribe. Soon after, they walked into the snowfield. Sun Xin asked the accompanying Jurchen officials, and learned that the place where they are now has already entered Jilin in later generations. The weather is getting worse and worse. Heavy snow froze the road, but fortunately the Jurchens had lived here for a long time, and with the help of raking pears and the like, it was enough to keep the brigade going on in winter.

Moreover, this place is also ruled by the Jurchens, and the core construction is more or less developed. There are simple post stations along the way. Although the pick-up journey is slow, it is not too difficult.

Ten days later, the team finally arrived at Huanglong Mansion.

This place is a little north of Changchun in later generations, and there is Changchun Continent further north, which is the front line of Jin Kingdom and Liao Kingdom.

Everyone on the road in the past few days already knew that Huanglong Mansion was the largest city occupied by the Jurchen during the Liaojin War, and it was the absolute core of the Jin Kingdom in terms of military politics and economy at this time.

The Huangrong Mansion that appeared in front of their eyes could barely be regarded as the capital of a country.

In terms of building scale, it is about one-third of the area of ​​Dengzhou City, with a population of at least [-]. The businessmen in and out of the city have already shown a prosperous scene.

After Sun Xin and others entered the city, they saw soldiers and nobles in luxurious clothes coming and going in the city.

Ma Zheng looked at it strangely when he turned his head, and felt happy after living in Guangshe.

"Finally, we have entered their capital city. People from the Kingdom of Jin will come to contact us soon."

Although he stayed in the Kingdom of Jin for half a month, Ma Zheng was able to know that this place was not unsafe, and most of his original fear was gone, but after all, it was a remote place for him, and he wanted to go back to Song Dynasty as soon as possible.

Hearing what he said, Sun Xin shook his head and smiled.

"I think it's rare for them to meet us in such a short period of time."

"Do you still want to measure us?" Ma Zheng was a little surprised, and he could only think that it was best that Sun Xin guessed wrong.

But he waited for a few days with such hopes, but he was finally told by Sun Xin again. Although he arrived at Huanglong Mansion, his daily life was much easier, but he wanted to negotiate a contract with the noble lady and asked many times. The news was sent out, but it was like a stone sinking into the sea, and there was no news.

When Ma Zheng was depressed alone, Sun Xin and the others were very busy.

Sun Xinwusong, Le and Li San have all come to Huanglong Mansion. They started to spread the news that they want to sell hemp yarn in the Kingdom of Jin as soon as they rested. And with the experience of the last time, they simply said that they have millions of dollars. Jin Masha attracts collaborators.

Sure enough, within two days of arriving at Huanglong Mansion, an aristocrat from the Kingdom of Jin took the initiative to send someone to the Guan She to meet Sun Xin, and offered to help him sell hemp yarn in the Kingdom of Jin.

In Luzhou, Yang’s family gave Sun Xin seven coins per catty. After arriving at Huanglong Mansion, the nobles here directly asked for nine coins per catty.

Early this morning, he found Sun Xin with a post full of excitement.

Sun Xin took the post and glanced at it, only to see the name of "Wanyan's" written on it impressively.

Sun Xindao: "Finally alarmed the people of the royal family of the Kingdom of Jin?"

Le He smiled and said: "Thanks to you stopping me in Luzhou, the price offered by this company is ten yuan per catty, and as long as it is delivered to Luzhou, they will be responsible for the delivery to the north. They are very satisfied with our samples and said that if we It’s all of this quality, they charge as much as they want, and they can eat 400 million catties, do you agree or not?”

Sun Xin thought for a while but shook his head, "Wait and see."

"Do you think it can go up?"

Sun Xin shook his head: "The price may not be able to rise, but I still feel that these people's weight is not enough, and they may not be able to keep such a large business. You have also seen it these days, it is these millions of catties of hemp yarn that have attracted so many people. How many people in Jin Kingdom covet? If the people who cooperate with us are not strong enough, this business may not be able to continue in the future."

Lehe nodded: "You are right."

In fact, he has been dizzy by the surprise of the smooth business these days, and now he is willing to listen to whatever Sun Xin says.
