The demon world I designed

Chapter 240 Liuzhou's Business Opportunities
"By the way, Brother Wei should also have a status, right?"

In a corner of the huge cabin, Luo Yi held his nose and looked around. He is not a delicate person, but the current environment is too harsh.

There are hundreds of people crowded in the cabin. Although the ship is big, the cabin is not very airy. The body odor and foot odor of hundreds of people are mixed together, together with the smell of dry food from time to time and the smell of vomit from people who are seasick. It's so refreshing to be together.

It really made him not used to it, who had been a court official for more than 20 years.

Even Yu Chipeng, who often lives in the barracks, frowned a little. He had his own body odor, and he was immune to certain strong smells, but now it is too heavy.
Wei Gongcheng smiled lightly: "There is no way, there are a lot of people who use ships now, and there are really not enough ships. The three shipyards are rushing to work, but there are too few professional people. With the current business opportunities in Jiangnan, the next two to three years It is estimated that there is a shortage of ships.”

Yu Chipeng became interested when he heard the words: "There are three shipyards in the south of the Yangtze River that can build this kind of ship?"

"En." Wei Gongcheng looked at the other party with a smile. He knew that Yu Chipeng once had a dream of being a general at sea, so he said patiently: "The ship you see now was designed half a year ago. Today's new ship It will take a lot longer, and the academy has already begun research on a ship that can generate its own power instead of relying on sails, and it is estimated that you will be able to see it by the end of the year."

"Oh?" Yu Chipeng had studied maritime affairs, and his eyes lit up immediately: "Make your own power instead of relying on sails?"

Doesn't such a ship go wherever it wants to go at sea?

Can such a thing really exist in this world?

"College?" Luo Yi was even more curious about this word. It was not the first time he had heard this word.

Nowadays, many merchants in Nanming Mansion come to resell fresh goods. In addition to daily tea, wine, and food, there are also rare clocks, telescopes, and some jewelry that can bring elemental power to escape the heat. Shang Tong said that it was researched by the school's young gentlemen.

This made him very curious.

The quality of food in Jiangnan is obviously higher. Tea and wine have obvious effects of increasing spiritual power. Jewelry and clocks have magical functions. Even the silk that is worn has functions and colors that ordinary clothes do not have. Researched in the college.

"Mr. Wei, can you talk about this thing?"

"Mmm, that's it." Wei Gongcheng looked around, and he could clearly sense that there were a few scholars in the boat, who were carefully listening to their speech.

"The academy was established by Mr. Chen Qing himself, and it is used to train professional warlock talents."

"Professional warlock?"

These words not only moved Luo Yi's heart, but a few scholars not far away couldn't help but get closer.

"The academy is called Liuzhou Yinyang Academy," Wei Gongcheng said with a smile.

"Liuzhou Yin Yang College?" Luo Yi laughed suddenly: "What a breath!"

Anyone who was born in the Warlock Academy has a deep sense of honor for the Yin Yang Academy built by the imperial court. There are the most magic formulas in the world, the most complete types of magic formulas, and the best senior warlocks to teach. The Holy Land in the eyes of the younger generation of warlocks.

How dare Liuzhou have the same name?
Does Chen Qing know what the four words Yin Yang College represent?
"Didn't the word Liuzhou be added?" Wei Gongcheng said with a smile, "It doesn't mean to compare, and even if you want to compare, it's not incomparable."

"Oh?" Luo Yi suddenly laughed angrily: "It seems that the court's defeat this time made Mr. Wei quite arrogant."

"Huh?" Wei Gongcheng asked curiously: "The imperial court is just testing this time, and the people who came here are not elites. What's so arrogant about defeating them?"

Yu Chipeng: "."

"Then it seems Mr. Wei is not a frog at the bottom of a well!" Luo Yi said coldly: "How can you say what you just said?"

"Because it's a fact," Wei Gongcheng said with a smile.

"Fact?" Luo Yi became angry: "You said that Liuzhou Academy is a place to train warlocks. What do you mean by warlocks? Are they skilled craftsmen? Even tea, wine and food are researched by warlocks. Your warlocks in Jiangnan , really unique style!"

"Skillful craftsmen are also a kind of warlocks." Wei Gongcheng said lightly: "The warlocks in the court's Ministry of Industry, aren't they also the treasures of the big families?"

"Can it be the same?" Luo Yi frowned: "The things made by the Ministry of Industry are all for the benefit of the common people in the world!"

"It's the same with us." Wei Gongcheng said: "You can sit on this boat, which can make Jiangnan's maritime trade more developed and the circulation of the four seas more frequent. If this is not benefiting the people, what is it?”

Luo Yi: "."

He feels that he can't tell the other party
"The warlocks we cultivate are indeed different from those of the imperial court. As for the difference, Mr. Luo will know after seeing it himself."

"Really?" Hearing the words, Luo Yi had no choice but to mumble, "Then I'll just wait and see!"
-
The waterway between Liuzhou and Nanming Mansion is not that close, and the usual boat journey is at least half a day, but I don't know if this boat has any special power, but it only took less than two hours to reach Liuzhou port.

When disembarking from the ship, the port was full of people, and those who had seen the prosperity of the south of the Yangtze River were stunned.

It seemed that many of them had been to Liuzhou two years ago. At that time, the place was almost desolate. Unexpectedly, in just two years, the bustling and bustling level was even more prosperous than the peak period before.

They predicted before that the other prefectures in the south of the Yangtze River were not as strong as the city of Nanming Prefecture. After the outbreak of living corpses, it would be a purgatory on earth, and there would be no one among the people. They didn't expect that there were so many people here, and they seemed to be doing well.

There are people coming and going in this port, and they are not small. For a while, it doesn't feel like they have come to the south of the Yangtze River, but to the land of Qinchuan, and all of them have ruddy complexions and are full of energy.

Nanming Mansion is considered to be the apex of people's livelihood in the south of the Yangtze River. Even if the entire Jin Dynasty is placed, the life of ordinary people is considered to be in the top three, but at a glance, most of the ordinary people still have disheveled faces. , and only slightly better than ordinary people.

Where is it like in front of you, everyone is as strong as a calf, with ruddy complexion and bright eyes, it feels like the children of some rich merchants who practice martial arts are not as good as them.

As for Lin Lang's goods on the pier, it was even more exaggerated. They couldn't name many of them, and they were dazzled just by looking at them!

"Brother Feng, what are these?" A member of staff hurriedly pointed to the six ice-blue gemstones that a merchant had just received not far away.

It is a gemstone, but more like jadeite, because only jadeite can have such a crystal clear color, but I have never heard of blue jadeite, and the color is astonishingly beautiful, like the Antarctic black ice mentioned by storytellers.

And from a long distance, you can feel the cool breath from the gemstone. The sweaty man just approached it, and he felt a comfortable feeling of cooling down his heart.

"Oh, that's it." The businessman surnamed Feng glanced at it and said, "That's jadeite."

"Really emerald?" A group of people were stunned: "How can Keke emerald be blue?"

"Because it's possessed by a demon."

"Enchanting?" The words that had never been heard made a group of people stare wide-eyed: "What does that mean?"

"This is the unique ability of Liuzhou Academy, the gentlemen of Dizi Academy. They can endow some objects with special functions. In their words, it is enchanting. The best enchanting materials are emerald, jade, and some Nanyang jewelry."

The businessman surnamed Feng looked at the blue jade and said, "That thing is very popular now. It has the effect of escaping the heat in summer, and you can carry it with you. Even under the scorching sun, your surroundings will be extremely cool. It is a luxury item!"

"Is there such a thing?" The eyes of a group of people suddenly glowed. It is hot in summer. Many wealthy businessmen use ice cubes to escape the heat, but that thing is too easy to cause fever, and most of the rich are very busy, and they often go out to socialize. , what is lacking is this kind of magical thing. Thinking of the gemstones that can cool the surroundings just now, they are so beautiful.

Especially noble ladies, summer is the time to wear cool and thin skirts, but because it is too hot, rouge and gouache are most likely to be soaked in sweat. Many places have beautiful scenery, but because of the weather, noble ladies stumble. gadget
It is almost unnecessary to know that once this thing appears in the capital or other wealthy cities, it will definitely be fired up to sky-high prices!

I'm afraid that after my wife and children know this thing, they will force themselves to buy a piece with their lives.

"It's a good thing, it's really a good thing!" A group of members were surprised and distrusted Gu Beiquan and others in their hearts. It turns out that Jiangnan has hidden so many good things. This group of goddamn guys is really full. !

Suddenly, I feel a little lucky that the court has not successfully captured Jiangnan this time!

"Brother Feng said that the depreciation of gold and silver here is serious. Apart from the special fragrant silver released by Chen Qing, the best hard currency is jadeite and gemstones? Does it have something to do with this so-called enchantment?"

"Hehe. Brother Zhang reacted quickly." The businessman surnamed Feng nodded and said: "That's true. About half a year ago, after the enchanting method of Diziyuan came out, high-quality jadeite and jade became a hot commodity, because they can be enchanted. The methods are miraculous, evading the heat and cold, clearing the fragrance and deodorizing, and even some of them can fly."

"Brother Feng, what did you say?" The people next to him froze for a moment, thinking they had heard it wrong.

"Sounds unbelievable, right?" The businessman surnamed Feng was complacent. Sure enough, the former Nanming people have all become bumpkins.

"I will take you to see and see later!"
