The demon world I designed

Chapter 745 Exploring the South China Sea

"When you say that, it seems a little bit."

Murong Yunji also stood up and looked forward inexplicably. As the ship approached the port, she also felt that strange feeling, just like when she was a child and saw a spider with a butt like a blister crawling in front of her eyes. It felt like goosebumps all over my body stood up involuntarily.

After becoming stronger, Murong Yunji rarely encountered this feeling, the feeling of fear in her bones.

"What the hell is it?"

"I don't know, let's just watch first." Ao Zhen glanced at Murong Yunji. She was very satisfied with the other person's alertness. When faced with the fear of this position, she adjusted well and calmly, without even breathing. messed up.

As the ship docked, Wei Gongzhan took the lead, and the shopkeeper in charge of the goods disembarked from the ship to unload the goods. The two of them pretended to be boudoir girls and did not show their faces in the cabin.

“I haven’t seen Jiangnan’s goods for a long time.”

A gentle voice came, and Wei Gongzhan looked over. He could recognize the other person's fancy clothes at a glance.

Chen Zhuo, the third legitimate son born by Chen Baifeng and his first wife, but unfortunately, this wife seemed to be made a joke by fate. The boys were born one after another, but none of them were born with the talent of a warlock. The first two It's okay, more or less, if you spend some resources to pile up, you can at least become a warlock. No matter how unbearable Chen Yun is, with a lot of resources thrown at him, he can still be more or less a dragon vein warlock.

But the one in front of him was different. He had no talent as a warlock at all. In the end, even the always domineering eldest lady had no face to let Chen Jia continue to spend resources on this third son. According to the family rules, he began Taking care of the family business.

However, due to his mother's status and domineering personality, Chen Zhuo has a transcendent status. Even when he is taking care of business, almost no one dares to look down on him openly.

Wei Gongzhan's expression did not change, and he quickly said with a smile: "Hey, sir, you don't know that prices in Jiangnan have risen a lot recently. Many salesmen can't get satisfactory prices, so they are holding back."

Just because he knows the other person does not mean that the other person knows him. This person does not have the talent of a warlock, and his memory is unlikely to be as powerful as a warlock. A small person like himself should not be noticed. After all, the capital was so big back then, and their identities have never changed. I have never interacted with him, I just met him occasionally in Yuchi Mansion.

"I've heard of this." Chen Zhuo on the opposite side smiled and nodded: "Then your boss is awesome. Nowadays, commercial banks all over the Yangtze River are in a stalemate with the people. Did you actually get a bargain?"

Wei Gongzhan immediately heard the probing meaning in the other party's tone.

The recent increase in private prices in Jiangnan is true. The main reason is that the profits of peddlers and merchants are too high. The goods in Jiangnan are sold for more than ten times as much. Such huge profits make those responsible for output begin to become dissatisfied.

Because the sales volume was very good and the price was high, the purchase price was still so low. This made most people feel unbalanced, so there was a collective price increase at the end of this year.

The government seems to be interested in promoting this matter, which has caused huge headaches for many commercial banks. The commercial banks do not want to give up such huge profits, because once this is started, if those responsible for output continue to play this way in the future, it will really dig into their foundation.

Therefore, major commercial banks have issued bans, not allowing high-priced purchases, and antagonizing private producers.

Ordinary merchants don't dare to buy goods. The reason is very simple. Nowadays, ships are getting better and better. Everyone either relies on the big ships of the trading company and pays a certain percentage of commission, or they join forces to buy ships. They are all on the same side. Naturally, no one dares to do this. Sometimes you turn your back on the public because of small profits. Otherwise, once you are isolated, many businesses will be difficult to do in the future.

It is also for this reason that Jiangnan has not dumped new goods for two months.

When the other party asked this question, he must be examining the background of his ship.

Thinking of this, Wei Gongzhan chuckled and said: "My boss helped a lot of people back then. Although most of the common people were profit-seeking, our boss still has some prestige. It is not difficult to collect some goods in the countryside. Of course, most of them are drinks, It is easier for farmers to handle things like food, but it is difficult for high-end goods like warm jade. After all, the people who produce the goods are gentlemen from the college, and they are not that easy to talk to. "

"Hahaha" Chen Zhuo nodded when he heard this: "It would be nice to get some wine and tea. I am worried that there is no good stuff for the family banquet during the New Year. How many do you have in this boat? I want them all!"

"Oh, you are so generous, young master. This saves us a lot of time. Hehe, wait a moment, young master. I will unload the goods for you."

"Well, as soon as possible." Chen Zhuo said with a smile: "Unload the goods early, take a break to have a meal before it gets dark, and then you can consider going back to bring another boat. I'm here to say something, whether it's tea, wine or Jiangnan specialties. We will harvest as much food as we have!”

As soon as these words came out, Wei Gongzhan's heart sank. Did the other party really want the goods, or was he chasing people away in disguise?

"Okay, sir!" Wei Gongzhan said with a smile: "Don't worry, we are the best merchant ship in the south of the Yangtze River. We will set out early tomorrow morning. I will write a letter and ask someone to take it back to my boss and ask him to take the existing All the goods are brought to you!”

"Oh?" The other party looked at Wei Gongzhan and said calmly: "Looks like this, your butler will not go back for the time being?"

"Hehe." Wei Gongzhan said with a smile when he heard this: "I brought the two young ladies from my family over to visit us."

"Really?" Chen Zhuo nodded: "Not many people come here from Jiangnan to visit relatives. They all use the excuse of visiting relatives. There are quite a few who go to Jiangnan."

"Hahaha, young master, you are joking." Although Wei Gongzhan's words were modest, his face was full of pride. It seemed that the other party's praise of Jiangnan made him, a Jiangnan native, very respectable.

Chen Zhuo glanced at the other party and realized that people from Jiangnan almost all behaved this way outside, so he was used to it.

Then he nodded: "Then I won't delay you. The goods will be delivered as soon as possible. When the goods arrive, take this." The other party took out a jade pendant: "Go directly to Chen Mansion to find Butler Li. He will handle the rest. ”

"Chen family?" Wei Gongzhan looked stunned at first, and then said with great joy: "It turns out to be Mr. Chen's family, okay, okay, don't worry, don't worry, I will notify you as soon as the goods arrive."

After Chen Zhuo left, Wei Gongzhan was not careless, but followed the others to unload the cargo before returning to the cabin.

"Who was the person who spoke to you just now?" Ao Zhen was the first to speak.

"The third son of the eldest son of the Chen family: Chen Zhuo."

"He has a problem!" Ao Zhen said directly.

The strange feeling just now, if it felt right, should have come from him.

"Is it true?" Wei Gongzhan took a breath after hearing this. He also felt just now that the young master seemed to be sensitive to them staying here.

"Senior, were you noticed when you paid attention to him just now?"

"Probably not." Ao Zhen shook his head: "After I roughly felt that aura, I kept restraining myself. Even if the Dragon King of the South China Sea was there, it would be impossible for him to detect me in that situation."

"That's it." Seeing the other party's assurance, Wei Gongzhan breathed a sigh of relief.

"But the other party seems to be very sensitive. You just lied and we came to visit you. What if he is too cautious and sends someone to inquire?"

"It's okay." Wei Gongzhan said with a smile: "Since you decided to pretend to be cargo merchants, your identities have been prepared for you. This ship belongs to the Zhou family. The Zhou family has a cousin over there in the South China Sea. This The second marriage visit was originally real, but it was temporarily replaced by us. No matter how he checked, there would be no problem. As for when we get to the place, we only need to take out Mr. Zhou’s token and ask him to help hide it. "

"You think about it comprehensively." Ao Zhen nodded when he heard this. Now it seems that it is good for Wei Gongcheng to take this one with him. The other party has more rules in the mortal world and can better protect his identity.

"Senior." Wei Gongzhan asked in a low voice, "Is it not the Nanhai Dragon Palace that has the problem, but the Chen family?"

When this topic was mentioned, Ao Zhen also frowned: "I'm afraid the situation here is more complicated than imagined, and I have a hunch. I'm afraid something big will happen here soon!"
