Zhizhang Datang

Chapter 384

In fact, it was true. It was because the iron rooster valued spices too much that he overreacted to provoke Lin Sen, the evil star. As a result, he lost the lives of the entire fleet and almost everyone.

Of course, maybe without his active attack, Lin Sen might not let them go, but the means should not be so decisive.

Some people felt that it was more likely that Lin Sen would grab the iron cock unceremoniously.

The power of the Ping An can be seen by anyone who is not blind. It is normal for such a big guy to do some pirate business without money after going out to sea, or it would be a waste of its combat power .

Many of those sea merchants have played the role of pirates. As long as they do it cleanly, they don't happen to be bumped by other ships. The huge ocean is enough to erase all traces of them.

After all, there are still so many ships destroyed by natural disasters every year, and it is normal for more ships to disappear.

It is normal to have such guesses.

And even though that collision did not cause any major damage to the Ping An, it still left obvious impact marks on its hull, which could not be hidden from these experienced guys.

It didn't matter how they guessed. In the final analysis, whoever had the biggest fist had the final say on the sea. Even if Lin Sen acted more domineeringly, they could only bear with it.

What's more, Lin Sen is not in the way of anyone's affairs now, but because of that shipment of spices, he has become a favorite of everyone.

It’s just that most of those who wanted to buy spices from Lin Sen were rejected. Lin Sen only allocated some to a few powerful mainland businessmen, and the remaining half was given to Panyu City again. Here's our own caravan.

Now that you know that selling these things is profit, of course you can't make others cheaper, but your own strength and channels are still relatively limited, so you can't eat them all.

In addition, people who eat alone are likely to be isolated and helpless in the future, so some of the benefits are distributed.

Of course, when those who came to inquire were the stewards of the Qin family and the Cheng family who had just rushed back to Panyu City and hurried over after hearing the news, Lin Sen's answer was naturally different.

It was originally intended to bring them together, not only to bind more with this group of powerful allies, but his plan to communicate north and south and connect Lingnan and inside and outside Lingnan also required the participation of these big guys with deeper backgrounds. Is it done?

This is also a matter of obtaining Li Shimin's permission from the very beginning, so that the power of these emerging nobles will be stronger, so that they can better check and balance the group of family members who are still powerful.

People like the Qin family and the Cheng family are actually facing a similar predicament as Lin Sen.

Because those aristocratic family members have inherent influence in many key places, such as the eastern capital Luoyang, such as the Taiyuan area, such as the large area east of Xiao, and are even directly controlled by them.

It is actually difficult for these emerging nobles with poorer backgrounds to reach into these places.

That is to say, with the support of Li Shimin, they have to pull sideways from time to time, and they can let go of their development, so that they can barely compete with these guys.

With new ways and great opportunities to enhance strength like Lingnan and Waihai, it is natural to want them to enjoy more benefits first.

And with the participation of these people, Lin Sen can better protect the interests of Spice Island.

Because the crew always have to go ashore, and some people also want to go home, there is always a chance for those family members to get in touch with the secrets of the Spice Island.

So it is conceivable that this secret cannot be kept completely for too long.

After all, this is Datang, and the crew members are also hard to leave their homeland, with too many ties.

Unlike those fan merchants, most of them are people from all over the world, and their subordinates also use a large number of slaves as crew members, which can be said to be life and death.

Rather than being completely squeezed out of this golden route by the aristocratic family at that time, it is better to get a strong enough ally now to go one step ahead.

When the aristocratic family tried their best to get involved, they found that there was no place for them to step down.

If you dare to get involved, you need to face the joint attack of many big forces. This is the better solution that Lin Sen thinks.

Of course, the royal family will also participate. In a certain sense, the royal family is just a more powerful clan, and the emperor is also equivalent to a bigger patriarch. He also has to continue to lead his family to grow and grow. .

But they don't need Lin Sen to spread the news. I believe that there are already many guys in different positions among the crew who have passed on this important news, and they can also confirm each other's statements from different angles.

However, before the nobles recognized by Lin Sen join in, he still has a period of time to enjoy the benefits exclusively, because shipbuilding takes time.

Even buying a boat is not something that can be done overnight. When everyone knows that going to sea can make money, no one will easily sell the chicken that lays the golden eggs in their hands.

When Lin Sen mentioned the legendary Spice Island, the eyes of the stewards couldn't help but glisten.

When Lin Sen said that he intended to cooperate with them, the stewards couldn't calm down at all, fidgeting, as if wishing they could fly back to Chang'an City to tell their respective patriarchs eagerly.

Naturally, such important news cannot be put on paper, and any possibility of it being leaked must be avoided as much as possible.

So after discussing with each other, they simply decided to advance and retreat together, first to complete the purchase as usual as much as possible, but at a faster speed, and then pretend to go back as usual, so as not to attract the attention of interested people.

For this reason, these old and cunning guys even pretended to be disappointed when they came out of Lin Sen's barracks, for fear of being spotted by others.

During this period, Feng An also sent people to find Lin Sen.

Presumably it was about the rice, so when Lin Sen saw his eldest son Feng Zhichen, who represented Feng An, he was quite calm.

They made it clear that they were asking for something from themselves, so they naturally wanted to put on airs. Although they smiled enthusiastically, they didn't take the initiative to take the initiative. They only talked about the prosperity of Guangfu and praised Feng An for his leadership.

Until this time, Feng Zhichen couldn't help talking about the failure of super rice grains in a half-joking, half-accusing tone.

"Really? I didn't mention it at the time, can these rice seeds only be planted once? I remember I told General Feng that if you want to continue to produce high yields, you have to ask me to get the seeds?" Lin Senman said " Shocked" asked a rhetorical question, which made Feng Zhichen very embarrassed.

Feng Zhichen vaguely remembered that Lin Sen seemed to have said this, but the father and son didn't take it to heart at all. They only thought that fools would continue to buy rice seeds, and it would be fine to grow them by themselves.

I didn't expect this to be retribution now, so I had to skip this question.Simply changed the subject and asked why this happened.

He needs to have a reason for the past, so that he can excuse himself when he turns around, and prove that this is not some kind of punishment from God.
