Chapter 139 Sunrise in the East
Time flies, the stars fly by, and the peaceful night passes quickly.
When the white fish belly gradually rises in the east, a new day comes again.
From the villages hidden in the mountains, curls of smoke gradually rose.
With the thin mist in the mountains and forests in the early morning, people can't help but feel like they are in a fairyland.
Rubink woke up leisurely to the intermittent roosters and birds singing.
I rubbed my dizzy head in fragments, and had almost no memory of what happened last night.
I think it might be because they saw me drunk and they didn't talk to me anymore.
I couldn't help but secretly regret it, blaming myself for being greedy and delaying my business.
I must find Nan Yanxi today and settle the cooperation as soon as possible.
Holding on to the bed, Rubink slowly stood up, his body still shaking a bit due to his hangover.
After simply washing his face, Rubink stumbled out of the house, looking for some breakfast from the maid waiting here.
As soon as he reached the door, his deputy George hurried in.
He still held the exquisite rosewood box in his hand.
As soon as he entered the room, George complained to Rubink in Lanhe dialect.
"Oh, dear Monsieur Baron, you have to look at this... This was found in our room."
"It has all of our fingerprints all over it."
Rubink was shocked when he heard this and quickly took the wooden box. Inside lay quietly the document tied with a delicate ribbon.
A bad premonition arose in my heart, and I opened it hurriedly to take a look.
After reading it carefully, I couldn't help but cry secretly in my heart.
This document clearly states the conditions for mutual cooperation, barter for barter.
They originally thought of trading with gold and silver, and they used gold and silver to purchase their own goods.
Then you can use the money to buy goods that your country likes and needs.
Although this is troublesome, it can make cash and maximize benefits.
Because we use our own fleet for transportation on both sides.
Therefore, people in Nanyanxi have no way of clarifying the value of the goods they bring in their own country.
As long as they are rare enough and through your own promotion, even worthless gadgets can be sold at high prices.
As for their goods, you can go to the private sector to inquire about them to ensure that they cannot deceive you.
And they can also secretly carry private goods.
But now, there is a barter for barter, and it is all grain for grain, seeds for seeds, and livestock for livestock.
The most important thing is to exchange technology for technology. Everything is something that can be seen.
There is no way for me to have any business thoughts on it.
Moreover, since it is your own fleet that carries out the transportation, isn't it equivalent to doing errands for the other party for free?
The tattoo shows that Nan Yanxi magnanimously allowed their cargo to be taken away by his own fleet first.
The condition is that Rubink's fleet will be used to help him transport supplies to Beiyuan for free.
This condition seems easy, but the east coast of Beiyuan and the Lanhe Empire are completely in two directions.
This is totally the opposite!
No one knows better than myself how far it is from Yuzhou Sea Road to the east coast of Beiyuan.
At that time, Nan Yanxi warmly invited them and his party to be guests.
Lubink then sent someone to notify the fleet anchored on the east coast of Beiyuan, asking them to spare Dayan and go to Yuzhou to rendezvous.
This fleet took nearly half a month to arrive.
In the current situation, it's all about exchanging those goods for a hard job.
Not only that, there are two sentences written in the document, which roughly mean it.
Lu Binke and Nan Yanxi became brothers with different surnames. Nan Yanxi and his affiliated forces only traded with Lu Binke.
Moreover, he was given the title of Ping Haibo of Nanhai State, which was two levels higher than his title in Lanhe Empire.
The problem is that I signed and agreed to it, and several leaders of the fleet also agreed.
This is embarrassing. Lanhe Empire regulations stipulate that each outgoing caravan successfully runs down the trade route.
A signed document from the local power is required as proof.
In this way, the empire will give support, otherwise it will be regarded as invalid.
The previous sentence coupled with this title, on the surface, indicates to the empire his status as a local force.
This can be regarded as eliminating the thought of some other families wanting a share of the pie.
However, the meaning on the back is very clear.
As long as you still want to keep this trade route, you can only do your best to do business with him.
If this trade route is not very profitable, it would be okay.
But if the profits are huge, it is estimated that both the family and the empire will urge him.
Let him maintain this trade route wholeheartedly. If there is a problem, the family will immediately take him into account.
Because this will affect the income of the entire family.
As long as this trade route is profitable, Rubink's status in the family will rise.
Therefore, Rubink must do his best to maintain it.
But similarly, I no longer have time to travel to other trade routes, so I can only wander around in these nearby lands.
Moreover, accepting the official position was equivalent to admitting that he was Nan Yanxi's subordinate.
Not only must he do his best, but he must also not come into contact with his hostile forces, otherwise it will be betrayal!
What's even worse is that he has completely lost the initiative.
If those who do business have no initiative, that is not a good thing.
Shaking his head helplessly, Rubink sighed.
Although this is just a piece of paper, it seems that you can just tear it up if you don't like it.
But Nan Yanxi was an incomparable thief and asked all his followers and deputies to sign.
Among these people, Rubink himself didn't know which one was sent by his family to monitor him.
Which one is the spy placed here by the empire?
But he knew very well that all these people could understand Eastern scripts.
The goods and technologies exchanged are all things that are truly good for both countries.
It is not an exaggeration to say that the merits will be to all people and the benefits will be to the future.
If he rashly tears it up, Nan Yanxi will be furious and refuse to cooperate.
I'm afraid that my family and the empire will blame me immediately!
Within the family, there are so many competitors waiting for them to fail.
Forget it...I've already signed it, and besides, they didn't cheat me.
I only blame myself for being too greedy, this oriental liquor is too sweet.
Moreover, that distillation technology is really great. Just by virtue of his consistency, he is the number one person in the Lanhe Empire!
Forget it, if you depend on him, just depend on him...without suffering any loss.
Thinking of this, Rubink smiled lightly and was not in a hurry because he had a premonition.
In this magical land, you will definitely gain a lot.
Moreover, that guy always has a unique charm that makes people like him.
Carefully roll up the document and put it back into the wooden box.
Turning to look at George, Rubink smiled easily: "Oh, my brother, don't worry anymore!"
"Maybe this time, our benefits will not be limited to gold and silver."
He turned around and came outside the house and shouted to Tiantian.
"Oh God, please bless your faithful servant Rubink!"
After saying that, he stretched and turned to look at George: "Let's go, my brother."
"Let's enjoy an oriental breakfast together!"
