Chapter 332 Li Ke started planning a year ago!Glorious taxpayer!

They hadn't thought of the reason for these merchants to buy big ships.

But now, after Li Ke guided these businessmen to do business overseas, they immediately figured it out.

If you want to go to sea to do business, you have to take a boat, right?

Moreover, the sea is stormy, so a large ship is necessary to ensure safety and speed, right?

It's not easy to go out to sea once, and you must bring more goods out, so you must use a big ship, right?

At this time, there are hundreds of shopkeepers in the Metropolitan Governor's Mansion. If each of these people buys a ship, wouldn't the big ship be sold?

Thinking of this, they naturally became ecstatic, and the whole person suddenly relaxed a lot.

During this period of time, they were really overwhelmed by the sales of the big ship.

Now that they finally saw the sale of the big ship, they were naturally relieved.

"Doing business in overseas countries?"

The shopkeepers at the scene were slightly taken aback for a moment, and then became thoughtful.

They have never been overseas, and they don't know much about overseas situations.

I am afraid that there are still great risks in going overseas to do business hastily.

Moreover, sailing at sea is not as stable as on land. Once encountering strong winds and waves, it may be the result of ship destruction and death.

Even if the people are fine, if a ship of goods is soaked in seawater, it will suffer heavy losses.

Li Ke took a look and found that everyone seemed hesitant.

In this regard, he is not surprised, this is the normal situation.

These shopkeepers can become the top merchants in Yangzhou and Suzhou. Naturally, there is a reason. Caution is their way of survival.

If they didn't care about anything and just jumped in without knowing anything, they would probably have gone bankrupt a long time ago.

"At present, the main markets that this king intends to develop are small countries such as Wa, Lu Song, Java, Johor, Chenla, Siam, and Pyu."

"In the future, there will be further countries such as Tianzhu, which are the main markets for overseas trade!"

"You can imagine how cheap and large-volume cloth in my Great Tang will sell well when it arrives in these small countries?"

"My Datang's tea, soap, mirrors, glasses, matches, etc., do you think they will sell well?"

"For example, the purchase price of ordinary glass mirrors is less than 2 yuan, but you sell them in Waguo and Lu Song. I believe that with your skills, it should be easy to sell 1 piece, even 5 pieces can be sold, right? "

"The cost of 2 pieces, the selling price of 5 pieces, which is a profit of 4.8 pieces. If you bring a mirror, you can earn 1 pieces this time just by selling the mirror, let alone other products!"

"So, the more profitable business is always overseas, can you all agree with me?"

Li Ke smiled slightly and introduced his overseas trade plan to them.

Moreover, a lot of maps were taken out and distributed to them, and each of them looked at them one by one.

The small countries he mentioned are basically countries that are very close to the Tang Dynasty, and many of them are affiliated countries of the Tang Dynasty.

At this stage, it is not suitable to travel too far, and start with similar countries.

In the future, when the overseas trade becomes more mature and the shipbuilding industry develops more prosperously, it will be able to develop further afield, such as Tianzhu and Dashi.

Of course, if these businessmen want to follow his plan, they will naturally need to lure them with great benefits.

Therefore, he briefly introduced to them how profitable overseas trade is.

For example, if a piece of cotton cloth with a few hundred pennies is shipped to Japan, Lu Song and other countries, it will definitely be snapped up by their local dignitaries and rich people.

It should be easy to double the price by 10 times.

Even a bolt of linen worth 2 cents, as long as it is shipped in large quantities to these small countries, can make a very considerable profit.

After all, the pricing power is in their own hands, and they can sell it at a high price.

There are also some things that are extremely novel to those small countries, such as glass mirrors.

In Datang, you only need 2 pennies to buy a basic glass mirror, but as long as you ship it to those small countries, it is not a problem to sell it for 5 pennies!

If you sell it for 1 side, you can get a huge profit of 48 sticks in just one trip!

And this is only the profit of glass mirrors. After all, it is impossible to carry only glass mirrors on a boat, right?

In short, with the richness and novelty of Datang products, as well as the advantages of large quantity and low cost.

Once it appears in the markets of overseas countries, it will definitely have a huge impact on the consumer market!

In this case, it cannot be said to be making money, it is simply stealing money!

After listening to Li Ke's words, those merchants also began to think seriously.

They felt that what Li Ke said was very reasonable.

Because these products are the best-selling products even in Datang.

Not to mention those small countries with low productivity, as long as these products are shipped over, they will definitely cause a huge sensation in the local area!

And with the novelty and practicality of these commodities, they can definitely be sold at a very high price locally.

The reason why the price in Datang is low is that Li Ke deliberately set the price so low in consideration of the purchasing power of a large number of people.

But in overseas countries, there are not so many worries, and the price is directly sold at a high price.

Anyway, buy what you can afford, and leave what you can't afford.

After all, the quantity shipped by sea cannot be too large.

Basically, it is aimed at the local dignitaries and rich people, and these people are not short of money, even if they sell at a high price, there is no problem at all.

They also secretly calculated an account in their hearts, just as Li Ke said, if they took a glass mirror in one trip.

The cost is less than 2 pennies, but they believe that with their own ability, let alone 5 pens, they are confident that they can sell even 10 pens!

And once it is sold out, it will be a profit of thousands or even nearly ten thousand!

If you bring several more commodities, the quantity of goods should also be more.

The profit from one trip may reach more than 2 guan!

You must know that even the shopkeeper Chen bought the agency right in Yangzhou for 5 years, and only spent 12 guan!

Even if he bought the agency right in Yangzhou, he might only earn about 3 yuan in a year.

And just one trip to sea can make a profit of 2 yuan!

As soon as the account was settled, all the merchants present couldn't help being excited, their eyes full of anticipation and temptation!

"His Royal Highness, although we would like to go to overseas countries to do business, we have never been to sea, and we carry a lot of wealth, so it may be very dangerous in overseas countries."

Everyone is very interested in overseas trade, but soon someone thought of the problems.

First of all, they have black eyes on overseas countries and know nothing about it.

Secondly, they have never been out at sea, so they don't know what to pay attention to at sea, how to watch the weather, how to prevent Japanese pirates, etc.

Also, every time they go to sea, they must carry a ship full of supplies, whether they will be robbed locally, etc.

Although the profits of overseas trade are very exciting and enviable, these issues are also very critical.

It involves their life and property safety!

Otherwise, it would be very uneconomical for them to earn money but not spend it.

Hearing these questions raised by someone, other businessmen also nodded one after another, and then looked at Li Ke.

"Regarding these, the king has naturally prepared for it."

"First of all, this king has asked the Yangzhou Navy and Quanzhou Navy to open up exclusive routes to these small countries. As long as you sail within the route, you can get the protection of the navy."

"Secondly, you can find some veterans from the Yangzhou Navy. They are very proficient in manipulating large ships and navigating at sea. You can hire them as captains."

"As for your local safety, I believe no one would dare to lay hands on my Datang businessman."

"And once anyone is under the black hand, come back and tell the government directly, and the king will send troops there to completely crush them!"

Li Ke smiled slightly, and said to everyone in a very calm tone.

These are all arranged and planned by him before. Without a security guarantee, it is impossible for overseas trade to operate prosperously.

Therefore, only by creating a safe and secure overseas trade environment for everyone, everything will develop according to his plan.

As for the Datang merchants being robbed overseas?

Li Ke can only say that the grab is good!

As long as someone robs them, the Yangzhou Navy and Quanzhou Navy will have work to do.

"His Royal Highness King Qin is too thoughtful!"

Hearing that Li Ke had already found a solution, the eyes of the businessmen present immediately lit up, and their hearts were extremely excited and grateful.

If it is really as Li Ke said, then this overseas trade is really promising!

After all, the sea has been swept by the Yangzhou Navy and Quanzhou Navy, and a safe route has been opened up.

As long as you sail within the route, it is absolutely impossible to encounter dangerous people such as Japanese pirates or pirates.

Moreover, the veterans of the navy are naturally very familiar with the handling of large ships, sea routes, weather and other conditions.

As long as a veteran is hired as the captain, it can indeed save a lot of heart.

I only need to worry about the cargo, and leave the sailing to the veterans.

As for the safety of overseas countries, everyone also felt that what Li Ke said made sense.

After all, Datang is the most powerful country in the world, and the countries where they want to do business are basically all affiliated countries of Datang.

Especially when the Tang Dynasty had just destroyed the three countries of Goguryeo, Baekje and Silla, the deterrence was still very strong.

Therefore, there should be no daring person who dares to lay hands on the businessmen of Datang.

And Li Ke also said that even if someone did something wrong to them, as long as they come back and report to the government, Li Ke will send an army to destroy the other party!

Everyone has no doubts about the authenticity of Li Ke's words.

After all, Li Ke was a ruthless person who wiped out three countries as soon as he came out. It is estimated that Li Ke had wanted to attack those countries a long time ago, but he couldn't find a reason.

Once they were under the black hands, it would be an excellent reason for Li Ke.

After thinking about this, everyone's worries disappeared immediately, and they all became very interested in this overseas trade.

"Since overseas trade is to be carried out, ships are naturally needed, and they must be large ships!"

"Big ships are not only safer to sail at sea, but also carry more cargo per trip, which naturally makes more money."

"You guys want to buy big ships, and the bosses of the shipyard want to sell big ships. Isn't that just right?"

Li Ke glanced at everyone and said with a smile.

He vigorously developed the shipbuilding industry, isn't it for today?

Hearing Li Ke's words 5.9, everyone present suddenly realized!

At this time, everyone also fully understood Li Ke's plan!

This program started a year ago!

The reason why Li Ke asked Yangzhou Shipyard to decentralize technology is to allow a large number of shipyards in Yangzhou and Suzhou to start building large ships.

And a large number of large ships were built for overseas trade!

In other words, Li Ke had already thought about what would happen today a year ago!

"Sure enough, everything His Royal Highness Qin does has its own meaning!"

Everyone couldn't help sighing in their hearts.

Including today, the owner of the shipyard and the businessmen were called together for this plan.

Although this is Li Ke's plan, everyone has to admit that this plan is a good thing for both of them!

The ships in the shipyard can be sold, and the merchants can also buy large ships, and then conduct overseas trade.

"Thank you, Your Highness King Qin, for connecting!"

The owner of the shipyard and the businessmen saluted and thanked Li Ke one after another.

"Of course, this king will not do these things for nothing. Next, this king will announce an important thing!"
