As soon as Huangfu Chaobo's fleet landed, it was immediately surrounded by families and merchants from all over Jiangdong who had already arrived by Wen Xun. The main thing that attracted everyone was the hundreds of excellent horses on board.

Huangfu Chaobo did not pay too much attention to the caravan. He had already handed it over to a caravan manager sent by the Mi family, but he quietly came to Dan with Jia Jing and Dianwei. In Tucheng, this is the first time they have entered the Jiangnan city.

Unlike the northern city where I live all year round, the Jiangdong city is also full of ditches. Walking on the streets of Danyang, you can see players hurriedly walking by everywhere. The players here are different from those in the north. Many of them are wearing silk clothes unique to the south. It can be seen that they are all life style. Players.

The South is different from the North. The South has sufficient food, and the South has abundant fishery resources. In addition, Jiangnan can grow mulberry and raise silkworms, and it is far away from the war in the Central Plains. Therefore, overall the stability of players and NPCs is much higher. In the north.

Another point is that the shipbuilding industry in the South is extremely developed. Many player territories are developing the shipbuilding industry, while ordinary players purchase ships and everyone is exploring the sea, which also promotes the development of Jiangdong shipbuilding industry.

Although it is currently said that high-end ship manufacturing is still in the hands of the family and the official, the low-end ship manufacturing has developed very well under the full impact of players. Huangfu Chaobo believes that in time, it will only take a few years. , Players will definitely master the manufacturing of more advanced ships.

Along the way, not only the players come and go, but from time to time you can see many barbarian warriors in animal skins, most of them are warriors recruited and trained by the players.

At the end of the day, Huangfu Chaobo took Jia Jing to walk around Danyang City roughly, until it got dark, a group of talented people hurried to leave the city before the city gate was closed, and returned to rest on the boat at the dock outside the city.

After returning to the boat, after dinner, Huangfu Chaobo was about to rest, but he heard someone outside the cabin begging to see him.

"Tell Hou, the shopkeeper Mi, please see you!"

Huangfu Chaobo was stunned. The shopkeeper Mi was Mi Fu, the person in charge of the high team of the trip. He was originally from the Mi family and one of the most powerful shopkeepers in the Mi business. After Bo agreed, he was sent to take charge of the entire caravan.

As early as when he boarded the ship in Qingzhou, Huangfu Chaobo had already confessed that he had the sole responsibility of Mi Fu for the caravan. He himself would not come forward. So when he arrived at the mouth of the Dajiang River, he was the one who came forward to collude with Yangzhou Governor Liu Yao. After the fleet docked, he was responsible for the sale of goods and the purchase of grain for the caravan.

Unexpectedly, he suddenly asked to see him at this time. Is there anything he can't handle? You must know that the Mi family represents General An Dong’s mansion, and the princes of the world generally want to give some face, even if it is the Cao and Yuan family, because the smooth flow of trade routes is related to the economy under their own governance, and they will not be killed by the caravan. Hands.

What's more, Jiang Dong, who has no conflict of interest with General An Dong's Mansion, has no reason to embarrass him. Thinking of this, Huangfu Chaobo ordered him to come in.

After a while, Mi Fu entered the cabin and said deeply: "The old servant has seen Lord Hou!"

For these old people of the Mi family, they all regarded themselves as servants of Huangfu Chaobo, so they also called themselves servants when they met.

Huangfu Chaobo nodded, and said, "Get up, what's the matter?"

"That's it," Mi Fu replied politely, standing up, "Today, the old servant met with the people of Gu's family. They handed over them, saying that if they can, they hope to meet with the person in charge. Their purpose is to be able to Cooperate with us to monopolize the war horse business of General An Dong’s mansion in the south of the Yangtze River. The old servants cannot be the masters, so come to ask Lord Hou for instructions."

Huangfu Chaobo heard what he meant. The Gu family wanted to do not only Jiangdong, but also the entire Yangtze River basin in Jingzhou and Yizhou.

"Haha... His Gu family has a good taste, he wants to monopolize the entire Jiangnan business, in your opinion, can his Gu family eat it?"

"From the view of the old servant, it is probably difficult for his family to eat it, but it sounds like there should be other families joining in. In this way, it should not be difficult to eat the entire Jiangnan war horse. Yes. And, what they mean, you can eat at least ten thousand horses a year."

When Huangfu heard about it, he was taken aback. According to the price of 5,000 horses a year, the official price in Youzhou is about 12,000 copper, but in Luoyang and Zhongyuan, the price is basically 20,000. Copper, if it goes to Jiangnan, the price has at least doubled, which is 60,000 copper.

You know, like today, there are only a few places where the war horse is sold, Liangzhou, Bingzhou and Youzhou. Except for the Mahan family, the war horses in Liangzhou were basically digested by the Xiliang army. There are not many war horses sold in Binzhou, so apart from Youzhou Huangfu Chaobo, there are basically not many war horses sold in other places.

Coupled with the successive years of wars in the Central Plains, war horses have become strategic materials forbidden by all princes to leave the country. Therefore, Jiangdong and Jingnan basically have no war horses to buy, so the price can be said to be ridiculously high.

Ten thousand horses a year is sixty thousand gold. If you buy grain from Jiangdong, one catty of grain is five copper, and one stone is five hundred copper. This sixty thousand gold can be 1.2 million stone of grain.

Of course, since it is an agent for them, it must not be able to sell at this price, but at least one can sell 20,000 to 30,000 copper. If so, there are hundreds of thousands of stone of food, and there is no need for security The trouble of purchasing by the Eastern Army Caravan itself can be said to be relatively cost-effective.

Another point is that the strong dragon can't control the local snakes. The Anton Army goes south to Jiangdong to seek for money, not to erect an enemy, so it is necessary to find a suitable partner in Jiangdong.

Huangfu Chaobo stood in the cabin and looked towards Danyang City a few miles away from the window. He saw that the lights were brightly lit, and it looked really lively. After a moment of contemplation, he turned his head and said to Mi Fu: "You arrange it and show them through A little bit of air, just say that we will arrange important people to discuss cooperation matters with them, and let them send someone who can be the master."

After Mi Fu agreed, he gently backed out.

The next day, Huangfu Chaobo did not leave the boat, but waited for the Gu family on the boat. At this time, Mi Fu on the dock came to report that Gu's family had arrived at the dock. Huangfu immediately asked someone to come on board the boat.
