Chapter 296 Making a fortune and buying a cargo ship in Zhangxiang

Chapter 296

It was still winter when it came, and it was already spring when it went.

The journey went smoothly, and not long after going south, they finally saw cargo ships coming and going on the sea at irregular intervals. Everyone knew that they had entered the busy trade channel between Song and Liao. The speed seems to be much faster.

The big ship slowly came to dock in Liao Kingdom, and the owner of the ship docked in Suzhou of Liao Kingdom, which is the later Yingkou area, and then suddenly said that he had to sail northwest before returning to Dengzhou.

Sun Xin and Ma Zheng were not happy at that time, they went to the captain and said, "Why don't you go back to Dengzhou directly?"

The owner of the sea smiled and said: "We are a small business. Originally, we could not earn any money from the sea trade between Goryeo and Song. It is customary to arrive at Yingkou to load the goods and then go to Jinzhou. They are Liao people. If you ship the goods there, you can only get some benefits when you return to Dengzhou, if you go directly to Dengzhou, you may not be able to earn the money for the ship.”

This time, Sun Xin directly negotiated 400 million hemp yarns, and the profit from handing over to Luzhou alone exceeded 8000 taels of silver, and this was also the amount of goods hoarded in the warehouse, which could be cashed out as soon as he returned. The end is rich and powerful.

Hearing that the sea master said that he would go to the northwest, Sun Xin was anxious to go home, so he simply smiled at him and said, "How much will you lose by going to Dengzhou?"

"Go back directly?"

Sun Xin nodded.

"Speak less and earn fifty less."

Sun Xin didn't care if he made a false report or not, and said directly: "I'll post you fifty guan, let's go back to Dengzhou directly. But I don't have any money with me now, but we don't have a lot of people to dirty your money. It will be paid to you when you arrive at Dengzhou Port."

Haizhu was shocked and asked again and again. After confirming that Sun Xin was not joking, he nodded and agreed after a little thought.

Sun Xin and Ma Zheng's manners are extraordinary, Haizhu is not worried about their repudiation.

Going back to Dengzhou directly from Yingkou saves a lot of time traveling. If you can earn the same amount of money, why not?After agreeing on the money, the man was also refreshed. He set sail and headed south, and arrived at Dengzhou Port in a few days.

As soon as the ship approached the port, someone hurriedly ran to the gangplank and asked, "Did you come back from Liao?"

Seeing Sun Xin standing on the deck, the man suddenly laughed.

Looking at each other, it was the soldiers of the protection army who came.

"The owner is back!"

Sun Xin smiled and said, "We haven't landed yet, how did you get the news?"

"Since receiving the letter from the owner, the village has sent people to wait at Dengzhou port every day."

Sun Xin nodded, knowing in his heart that it must be because they had been there for too long and the people at Sunjiazhuang had been waiting impatiently.

"Who is in charge here now?"

"It's Brother Sun Li."

As soon as Sun Xin heard that his old man was coming, he jumped off the deck in three or two steps, and while walking to the rear of the port, he told the peasants and soldiers to go back quickly and let the ship money come.

Sun Lizheng was sitting on the edge of the pier resting, turned around and saw Sun Xin walking up with a smile, stood up instantly, and walked towards Sun Xin in a hurry.

Sun Xin smiled when he came near. Sun Li looked his brother up and down. He was finally relieved to see that he had returned safely. He patted Sun Xin on the shoulder and said, "It's good to have a safe journey. Go home, everyone in the family is happy." Wait in a hurry."

Sun Xin shook his head and said, "Don't leave for now, I'm here to talk to people."

"What's the rush at home, do you still have the time to talk here?"

Sun Xin said with a smile: "My brother is still hot-tempered, why don't you go with me."

Sun Li followed Sun Xin to the side of the boat and waited for everyone to unload their luggage from the boat. When Sun Li got a little impatient, he saw the sailors on the boat stepping down from the deck one after another.

When the sea master got off the boat, Sun Xin grabbed him and said with a smile, "How many of you guys are there?"

The sea master also traveled to sea for a long time before finally returning to Song Dynasty. He was in a happy mood and said to Sun Xin with a smile: "There are fifteen brothers in our group, and they take turns relying on this boat to make a living on weekdays. Officials can come to me when they want to take a boat in the future."

Sun Xin nodded, and he was also observing along the way. The cargo capacity of the boats operated by these dozens of people was not large. Although sea-going ships cannot withstand wind and waves, they are still very suitable for sailing in the calm inland sea of ​​the Bohai Sea.

If Sun Xin really builds his own transport fleet in the future, he will definitely want to use more advanced ship types.

But for the time being, our own shipping team is still very scarce, especially the lack of people who are familiar with the route from Song Dynasty to Koryo, and we need manpower for the time being.

He directly smiled at the sea lord and said, "Come and do things with me, I will cover your income, even the boat, and I will never let you earn less than before."

The sea lord had seen Sun Xin's extraordinary bearing early on, and at this time he also saw many people cheering and hugging him as soon as he landed. Hearing what he said, he asked curiously: "May I ask you?"

Sun Li on the side smiled and said: "My younger brother is the young Yuchi Sunxin from the Sun Family Village outside the city."

"Sun Xin, Sun Erlang!" Now Sun Xin's reputation in Dengzhou has already been heard like a thunder, how could people who often visit the two prefectures of Denglai not know about it?
The sea master was taken aback by this, and quickly cut his hair and said: "It turns out that my elder brother is Sun Erlang of the Shili brand. I have heard a lot about my elder brother's deeds. He took in refugees, opened a farm, and protected the environment and the people. When we knew that my elder brother was Sun Xin, we would I dare not take a single penny.”

"We have long wanted to contribute, but I am afraid that my brother thinks we are not famous and will not accept us."

Sun Xin said with a smile: "In the past few days, I have also seen that my brother is quite capable at sea, so I dare to ask for his name."

The guy said: "We are all from Laizhou. More than a dozen brothers live and die in the Bohai Sea to make a living. I am older and have the right to be a consul. My nickname is Fanhaijiao Shen Yun. If I can work with Brother Sun Xin , I am willing not to earn money."

Sun Xin knew that what Shen Yun said was only on the scene, if he really respected himself so much, he would have taken out the sixty pens long ago.

However, in the past few days, he can also see that although this person is a bit cautious, his ability to travel by sea is really good. There are very few people on the route from Song Dynasty to Korea. It is just a small boat for a person, and he is not afraid of not being able to control it if he takes refuge in his own system.

After some discussion, the two parties agreed that Sun Xinhua would buy Shen Yun's big ship with a hundred guans, and that Shen Yun would be considered as the farmer of their Sun family village in the future, and would be in charge of transporting goods to Korea for the time being.

Shen Yun has no objection either. Although the interests of their maritime merchants are great, the competition is also fierce. Originally, the trade between Song and Liao is the most lucrative, but it is only because Shen Yun has no foundation on this waterway. Can't eat.

Because he often recruits people to rob him, he can only go on the long-distance and low-profit route between Dasong and Goryeo. Now that Sun Xin is willing to accept him, and there is a stable transportation business to do, the future life of the group of them It will be much more stable.
