I put my hands in my pockets that year, and only then did I know what immortality and invincibility are Chapter 134 Could it be that it is for official business
Chapter 134 Could it be that it is for official business
Su Fang drifted on the boat for a few more days and continued to practice every day.
The medicinal materials given to him by the emperor had long been ground into powder and divided into portions, which was convenient for taking and carrying.
Although the higher the strength, the less helpful these medicinal herbs will be to him, it is better than not.
[Realm: Innate Second Level of Heaven (1995/3000)]
It takes more than one thousand points of mana to break through.
The closer you get to Jiangnan, the more ships you encounter.
The Jiangnan Water Town has a unique geographical location and is the hometown of fish and rice in the entire Qin Empire.
Half of the tax revenue of the entire Qin Empire came from Jiangnan, which shows how rich Jiangnan was.
Su Fang saw several large ships, which were not only huge, but also very gorgeous, and looked very extraordinary, so he asked: "Whose ship is this? How could it be so big?"
"This is the ship of the Fan family among the eight major families. The main business of the Fan family is the fleet port."
"Although the seven major families also have fleets, they are much smaller than the Fan family."
"If the other seven families have a large amount of things to be transported from the water, they all have to rely on the Fan family's fleet to help."
Zhan Ling did his homework for this matter and knew very well any information about Jiangnan.
When Su Fang heard this, he understood that the main source of business of the Fan family was to make money by relying on water transportation.
Moreover, from Zhan Ling, the Soviet side also learned that the Fan family's fleet was far inferior to the imperial court's ships.
A caravan's ship was even stronger than the imperial court.
This is not a good thing.
The Fan family has money, so they naturally have the ability to build very powerful ships. The imperial court did not attach much importance to the navy, and it was understandable that it was backward.
Zhan Ling even said that if a naval battle occurs, he might have to rely on the Fan family's ships.
The Fan family's merchant ship is so powerful, you must be a little careful before destroying them.
Then, Su Fang and the others finally docked, Zhan Ling asked: "What should we do next?"
Su Fang looked at the people on the shore and said, "Look, the eight major families have arranged a lot of people to look for us."
"Let our people go ashore in batches, and then spread throughout the [Beijinghang City], and then wait for the order." Su Fang ordered.
"Yes." Zhan Ling went to make arrangements immediately.
Three chief magistrates and two great masters followed Su Fang, swaggeringly passing by the eyeliners of the eight major families.
"Let's go around [Beijing and Hangzhou City] first to see the specific situation." Su Fang said.
"Everything is followed by Mr. Su's arrangements." Several chief supervisors said.
The entire [Beijing and Hangzhou City] is very prosperous, and there are too many people coming and going.
Various vendors, shops, vegetable farmers, and merchants are densely distributed throughout the entire [Beijing and Hangzhou City].
On the surface, the entire [Beijing-Hangzhou City] is thriving.
Su Fang asked: "It seems that the eight major families do not want any changes in [Beijing and Hangzhou City]. The memorials presented to the emperor only appear in other cities."
"[Beijinghang City] is the most important city of the eight major families. They definitely don't want anything that is unfavorable to them here."
"Once there is a change in [Beijinghang City], it will cause great damage to their interests. When they fight against the court, they will naturally cause changes in other places. Here, they will try their best to stabilize the situation here."
Zhan Ling also spoke.
It is actually a very simple thing to solve the problem in Jiangnan.
As long as all the eight major families are taken over, the matter in Jiangnan will be solved.
Of course, it's only temporary.
The eight major families have mastered the entire Jiangnan for so many years and solved them, which has indeed had a great impact on all aspects of the entire Jiangnan.
However, as long as you find someone who replaces the eight major families, the eight major families are just native chickens and tiles.
Moreover, before Su Fang came to Jiangnan, he had already notified Kill Qiandao to send someone to Jiangnan.
This is a good place to make money. The eight major families are about to fall down. He will naturally have to kick such a big piece of fat.
"Tianji Rice Shop!" Su Fang saw many such rice shops on the street.
"This is the industry of the Tian family among the eight major families?" Su Fang asked.
Zhan Ling replied: "Yes, the Tian family is mainly engaged in the grain industry in the entire Jiangnan region, and the Tian family has too much land. The ones we mastered by the Jinyiwei have reached 100,000 acres."
"One hundred thousand acres, so much!" Su Fang was shocked.
"This is only controlled by the Jinyiwei, and I don't know how many of them are." Zhan Ling replied.
The land family alone is rich enough to rival a country.
The entire grain industry in Jiangnan was monopolized by the Tian family.
The Tian family has the final say in the grain price in the entire Jiangnan.
Eight major families, one monopolizes one industry.
The Fan family monopolizes maritime transportation!
The Li family monopolizes salt!
The Dong family monopolizes the entire silk!
The Tian family monopolizes the rice shop!
The Jin family monopolizes gold, silver ore, and iron ore.
The Huang family monopolized porcelain.
The Wang family has two families, and they have always been advancing and retreating together. They used to be brothers and the largest family.
They have no monopoly, but they are the richest and mainly operate shops such as brothels, hotels, inns, antiques, and pawn shops.
However, the most powerful one is the money bank!
The Wang family’s money house is really awesome, which is equivalent to opening a bank in the entire Qin Empire.
Wang Shiren is mainly responsible for money shops outside Jiangnan.
Wang Haoyu is in charge of the money house in Jiangnan.
Naturally, it is impossible for the eight major families to only start one industry, they have many industries in private.
Even the eight major families often do casinos and population transactions prohibited by the Qin Empire.
As for the iron products and weapons sold to other countries that the Qin Empire strictly prohibited were sold, they did a lot of privately.
As long as there are things that are beneficial, the eight major families will be involved.
At night, they came to the [Wangji Inn] under the Wang family.
Su Fang also drank the "Thousand Miles of Fragrance" he brewed here, and the price increased several times.
As for perfume, the price has increased several times.
The Soviet side asked Zhan Ling to search for a lot of information. Although Zhan Ling was puzzled, he still went.
As for Su Fang, when Zhan Ling was searching for information, he took everyone to go shopping and enjoy the scenery in [Beijing and Hangzhou City], which was very uncomfortable.
Even Wei Changjian and others almost thought that Su Fang was out for a trip.
But they believed that the Soviet side must have their own reasons, and how could they know what it was.
However, when Su Fang came to a brothel that day, the three eunuchs were not calm.
"Well, are we really going in?" asked Wei Changjian.
"Or what if we're staying outside?" Yu Changjian also spoke.
Liu Changjian also said that, and said: "Don't worry, we will never tell the emperor."
Su Fang looked at them and asked, "Don't you think I'm really here to look for flowers and willows, right?"
"Is it for business?" the three of them were curious.
"Of course it's for business." Su Fang smiled and walked in first.
The three chief supervisors looked at each other, but they didn't know what business needs to be discussed in the brothel.
