One Piece of Song Dynasty

Li Xin praised, "Madam is smart, that's right. In the past, people thought of taking back Yanyun by land. When I want to take back Yanyun in the future, I will take the sea route. The land only needs to play a role of containment and confusion." That’s it. x”

Liang Hongyu smiled slightly and said, "Now that the slave family has surrendered, the officials will definitely be able to revive us Han people in the future."

The three of them walked and chatted when they arrived at the southwest of the city. Li Xin introduced to the two girls, "The southwest of the city is a big market that sells all kinds of goods. You can basically buy everything you want to eat, wear, and use." Can be found.”

The two girls were walking between the shops, and suddenly Li Jing shouted, "Brother, that's not the glazed mirror you gave me. Why are there so many glazed mirrors here?"

Li Xin slapped his forehead, wondering why he had forgotten this matter. This was going to reveal his secret. Li Xin hurriedly coughed twice and said, "Sister, if you already have this glass mirror, don't look at it. Let's go look elsewhere."

Li Jing refused, "No, Sister Hongyu and I are going to take a look."

Li Xin smiled and said, "Then you two watch here, I'll go elsewhere to take a look first." Li Xin realized that something was wrong and wanted to run away.

Li Jing pulled Li Xin and refused to let him go, "No, brother, you have to go with us. We are not very familiar with Seoul."

Li Jing dragged Li Xin and Liang Hongyu into a shop selling glass mirrors. Both Li Jing and Liang Hongyu were dazzled by the various exquisite glass products in the shop.

When the shop boy saw the customers coming in, he said enthusiastically, "The guests are here to see the glass products. The shop has all kinds of glass products. I wonder what kind of glass products the guests want."

Li Jing asked, "I think these glazed products are very beautiful. These exquisite glazed products must be very expensive. How much does a small glazed mirror like this cost?" What Li Jing was holding was the one that Li Xin gave to Li Jing. That style of small mirror.

The boy waved his hands and said, "It's not expensive, it's not expensive. The glass products look exquisite, but they are actually not expensive. The small glass mirror in the girl's hand only costs a dollar. The most exquisite glass products in the shop only cost a hundred dollars." .”

Li Jing was surprised and said, "Why is it so cheap?"

The boy said, "The girl is new at first sight. This glass product is not new to Xinghan Island. Now, almost every family who first landed on the island has it."

Li Jing asked, "So this glass product is also a unique product of Xinghan Island?"

The boy replied, "The girl is right. These glazed products are all produced by the glazed workshop under the city guard's mansion, and the shop gets its goods from there."

When Li Jing heard this, she turned around and saw that Li Xin was about to leave the store. Li Jing shouted, "Brother, what do you want to say?"

Li Xin scratched his head and said with a smile, "Sister, let's go look elsewhere first."

Li Jing turned around and took out a lot of money and handed it to the boy and said, "I want this glazed mirror. You can wrap it up for me."

The boy said, "Okay, girl, wait a moment, she'll be fine soon."

Li Jing took the glass mirror and handed it to Liang Hongyu, "Sister Hongyu, consider this a gift from me."

Liang Hongyu declined, "How is this possible? My sister should keep it herself."

Li Jing shook her head and said, "No, I already have one, Sister Hongyu, just accept it."

After the three of them left the shop, Li Jing patted Li Xin and said, "Brother, didn't you tell me that it was some kind of rare treasure and asked me to keep it well? I thought it was true, but I didn't expect that it was not the case at all. And It’s still home-made.”

Li Xin held her head and said, "It's brother's fault. Sister, please stop beating me. This is on the street. It's not good for others to see it. Isn't it because I was afraid that my sister would take it outside to show off and let others know?" Knowing that our family can make this glass mirror will bring new troubles to our family."

Li Jing stopped when she heard what Li Xin said, "Okay, brother, I will believe you again this time. Then why are these cheap little things so expensive in Quanzhou?"

Liang Hongyu asked, "What's so expensive?"

Li Jing said, "Sister Hongyu, you don't know that such a small mirror with a low price can be sold for hundreds or even thousands of dollars in Quanzhou, and the more exquisite glass products we just saw can be sold for how much." Thousands of dollars or even tens of thousands of dollars."

Liang Hongyu exclaimed, “It’s so expensive.”

Li Xin tidied herself up and said, "As the saying goes, rare things are valuable. Although this thing is very common in Xinghan Island, it is not necessarily the case in the Song Dynasty. In addition, this thing is both practical and beautiful, so it is very expensive to sell it." normal."

Li Jing pouted and said, "Brother, you obviously did this on purpose."

Li Xin explained, "How can I make more money if I don't do this? How can I develop Xinghan Island without money, and how can I feed so many people on Xinghan Island? Besides, glass products are not necessities of life, so I just aim at big businesses." It was introduced by the wealthy people in the Song Dynasty. The rich people in the Song Dynasty were either businessmen, landlords or corrupt officials. If they don’t make money, their money will not be in vain.”

Liang Hongyu asked, "Why didn't the soap invented by the officials look like glass products?"

Li Xin said, "Soap is different from glass products. Soap is a necessity of life, and soap is just practical and not as beautiful as glass products. Glaze products are suitable for gifts but soap is not, so soap is only suitable for small profits but quick turnover."

Liang Hongyu sighed, "It seems that officials are also good at business."

The three of them wandered around the city for a while and then returned home. Early the next morning, Li Xin called over Zhao Fei, the steward of several workshops, Old Man Liu, the steward of the shipyard, Steward Zhai from the city construction team, and Old Man Zheng, Liu Yi, and Liu Fa from the road construction team.

Li Xin said to everyone, "I have not been here these past few months. The steady and rapid development of Xinghan Island is all due to your efforts. I would like to thank you all."

Everyone clasped their fists and said, "Thank you, Lord."

Li Xin took Liang Hongyu and introduced her, "Some of you have already seen her, some of you haven't seen her yet. Let me introduce that this is Mr. and Mrs. Liang Hongyu. When Mr. and Mrs. are not on the island in the future, if you have anything, please let me know."

Everyone clasped their fists and said, "I have seen Madam."

Liang Hongyu replied, "Hongyu is new here. Please take good care of me in the future."

Li Xin asked, "Uncle Liu, how is the shipbuilding situation at the shipyard?"

Old Man Liu replied, "My lord, all twenty Gonggong ships have been completed and delivered, and fifteen of the forty clipper ships have been completed. The remaining twenty-five ships should be completed and delivered in the spring of next year."

Li Xin nodded and said, "Okay, after these ships are completed, thirty more Gonggong ships and sixty scissor ships will be built. The shipyard will begin trial production of larger Gonggong ships and clipper ships. The new Gonggong ships will have a load capacity of Six hundred tons, and the clipper ship has a carrying capacity of one thousand tons.”

Old man Liu cupped his fists and said, "Yes, lord, I understand."
