Chapter 779 Hakata Port Trade Market

The market opened up by Hakata Port covers an area of ​​more than 120 mu. Sheds are built with wood, and there are ten roads in the horizontal and vertical directions, dividing the market into [-] small grids.

The market center is a two-story wooden building under construction, which will be the market management office in the future.

Every small grid has dozens of shops, waiting for their owners to move in.

When Ding Yi arrived, Liu Yi was leading the merchants around the market.I don't know how long it's been, but they didn't complain, or didn't dare to show it.

"Keep everyone waiting for a long time!" Ding Yi took Yuhe and looked at these merchants who could trade across the sea.

All the merchants didn't even dare to say, they didn't dare to take any drastic actions in front of this man.Besides, what is this place?A foreign land is a battlefield!The person in front of him not only holds a high position, but also holds a heavy army. Given 1 guts, he would not dare to cause trouble.

"Everyone here is doing me a favor. Cross-sea trade is very profitable, but there will definitely be many problems in the early stage. Especially since this is a battlefield, everyone must be worried about safety!"

you do not say!In this case, if the people from the Japanese country call, don't all of them merchants have to die here?
Everyone didn't dare to show it, but the worry in their eyes had already explained everything.

"Don't worry, here...Hakata Port is the rear of our Tang army. There are hundreds of thousands of Tang soldiers defending against the Japanese. Don't worry! A few days ago, our soldiers just defeated a Japanese army and won A huge victory! Annihilated 1 Japanese troops and captured 2 soldiers! In Hakata Port, there are still [-] soldiers from the right army, are you still worried about safety?"

"Don't worry!" The crowd shouted in unison. They didn't feel much before, but since the Tang Dynasty destroyed the Eastern Turks to avenge the Weishui Alliance, and destroyed Goguryeo and sent the bones of millions of soldiers back to their hometowns, the fallen leaves returned to their roots. They have already developed a sense of pride and a sense of honor from the bottom of their hearts.

In the past few years, the army of the Tang Dynasty has become stronger day by day, and the national power of the Tang Dynasty has been rising day by day. They feel proud from the bottom of their hearts.

After landing today, they saw the lives of the people of the Wa Kingdom, and they felt the power of the Tang Dynasty even more.

It has only been less than half a year since the Eastern Expedition of the Tang Dynasty started, and they have already laid down such a large territory in the country of Wa, and they have seen all of this.The Heaven's Punishment Army has a reputation that makes the enemy fearful and makes their own people proud. What else do they have to worry about?
"Very good! You are the first batch of cross-sea merchants officially dispatched by Datang. I believe that you will create more wealth for Datang here and create a bright future for yourself!"

Ding Yi himself was a little excited when he said some inspiring words. It was really an unexpected surprise that the people of Datang could cultivate a sense of honor.

"Grandpa, is this all prepared for us?" A bold merchant looked at the shed beside him and asked.

"Yes, it's all here!" Ding nodded.

"This..." For a while, many people felt a little lost. The environment here is very bad!

"Here, it will be yours in the future! If you have ideas, you can find someone to build your own house, and the military will provide you with labor." This is all planned by Ding Yi. The military has no time to take care of these things now, but the Wa Kingdom There are a lot of laborers now, and they are all free laborers!Those captives, as well as the labor labor that the Japanese people had to do to pay off their debts.

The military uses them for free, but merchants have to pay if they want to use them. Although it is not much, it can also earn some extra money for the soldiers.

"Here, you don't need to pay taxes, and the price of the goods is set by you. As long as you have the ability to operate, how much you can earn is your own!"

This is what was agreed before coming here, and they all came this way.Although the export tariff is a bit high, it is calculated according to the price of Datang, not the price here.

"My lord, when will you arrange for us to settle in? We can't wait!" All aspects of protection are already in place, and they can't wait to sell things directly now.

"Haha~ I will register for you first, and then choose the location of the store you like, and then you can open the door to welcome customers!"

"Thank you, my lord!"

Then, the merchants all go to register and then choose a location.

The location selection is not where they want to choose. There are nearly a hundred merchants in this group of people, and those locations are planned, which is also for easy management.

Otherwise, this one and that one would be too messy.

The market is surrounded by former residential buildings, which are now vacant and can be used as warehouses for these merchants.

There is a fee for this warehouse, otherwise it would be meaningless to spend so much effort to build up such a large territory.Furthermore, the imperial court is not doing charity, so it is impossible for everything to be free.

"Yuhe, how many shops does Junfeng Group need?" After thinking for a while, Ding Yi still wanted to comfort Yuhe. This girl was scolded by him first, and then almost took the blame, so she must feel uncomfortable.

Yu He hesitated for a moment, then said: "Twenty stores are enough, the products of some industries of the group cannot be exported, that's all that's left."

Oh right, Ding Yi almost forgot about that.

"Well, you look at the arrangement."

"Yes!"

Ding Yi didn't know how to speak, so he suddenly thought about it, touched Yu He's head, with a smile on his face, and asked: "Yu He, you are not young anymore, young master will find you a husband's house?"

Yuhe's head was instantly congested with blood, from the top of his head to his neck.Lowering her head shyly, she said coyly, "Master, Yuhe doesn't want to marry yet!"

This girl is eighteen now, not too young.In two more years, she could be considered a leftover woman.

"Do you not want to marry or do you already have someone you like?" Ding Yi teased.

Yu He looked up at Ding Yi shyly, then immediately lowered her head.

Uh~ Isn't this just asking for trouble!
Of the few people in the house back then, Yuhe and Xiao Qing spent the longest time with him, and spent the longest time with him.

It is reasonable for this girl to have a good impression of herself.

But Ding Yi always regarded her as his younger sister like Xue Jian, and didn't think about those matters between men and women at all.

Moreover, there are enough women around him now, he used to want to hug left and right, but now he doesn't have those thoughts anymore, he really wants to be together for a lifetime.

This may be after the desire is satisfied, recalling the beauty of the past.

Man is a changeable creature, and the gap is hard to fill!
"Yuhe, when this place stabilizes, I'll go back to Xincheng. If I want to get married, tell the young master. If you don't want to get married, you can stay at the house."

Ding Yi doesn't like to force others, let alone Yu He.If she really doesn't want to marry, then stay in the house.

"Master, I'll go to work first!"

"Go!"
