Chapter 517 519. Regret

Even if I try hard to recall, I can only remember a few items.

It is said that only by knowing yourself and your enemy can you win every battle, and the same principle applies to business.

Jin Qianqian and Gu Wenheng also had some discussions about the products that were being exported for the first time.

In the past, glassware was first imported from the open sea, but this time they did not plan to include it.

But ceramics, spices, brocade and other things are indispensable, and Jin Qianqian's various handmade soaps are naturally also added in.

But the items were still too monotonous, so she discussed it with Gu Wenheng and decided to add and subtract a lot of varieties.

But she hasn't decided yet who will lead the team this time.

Apart from a few experienced old fishermen, what was missing was someone with leadership skills.

This time, Butler Fu and Jiang Shuiniu were sent to Haicheng. In addition to finding out the items brought by merchant ships from various countries, they also had another important task, which was to see if they could hire a few experienced sailors.

"Why don't you two hide here and have some free time," Zhou Shixiong came over at this time.

Gu Wenheng saw him coming out alone, "Why did you come out so quickly?"

"I'm just a rough guy, so it's fine for me to be curious, but if you ask me to understand, I really don't understand.

Besides, they were uncomfortable with me inside, and they were hesitant when asking questions. "

Zhou Shixiong had long been accustomed to outsiders' fearful looks at him. Instead of standing there, he might as well come out and chat with the Gu brothers and their couple.

"Sister-in-law, I think some people will regret it now. It may not be long before these people come to our door again."

Jin Qianqian, "It's a pity that I don't need to invest for the time being. If they find Brother Zhou, please help us promote it."

Zhou Shixiong, "That's right. When we put the opportunity in front of them, they all thought we were going to trick them.

Now that they see that there is profit to be made, these people have immediately changed their attitude. We cannot indulge them."

Jin Qianqian deeply agreed with this. Besides, the profits from various places in the first half of the year made her shrunken wallet slowly swell again. She felt confident and naturally didn't want to get involved with these people anymore.

“But if this sea trade is successful, my brother-in-law and I will probably have troubles in the future,” Zhou Shixiong pointed out.

Gu Wenheng and the others naturally knew that this big piece of meat could not always be enjoyed by them alone.

It would be fine if they didn't see any benefits, but if they went out for a spin and came back, I guess the major families would take action.

Gu Wenheng did not hide it, "Brother Zhou, I just submitted a memorial a while ago. We sent the shipping shares up three levels."

Zhou Shixiong gave them a thumbs up and said, "That's great. Our current emperor is different from the previous emperor."

…

Sure enough, we didn't talk for long when He Gaofei and his friends, who had just visited the Compass Car, came over, pushing and shoving each other.

He Gaofei, "Master Gu, today we have really broadened our horizons. I didn't expect that the things recorded in ancient books could be created by ancient people. I admire them very much."

Li Ji, "Master Gu, can you tell us how you figured this out?

What I remember about it recorded in ancient books are just a few words.

Mr. Gu is a man of great talent, and is truly a role model for our generation to learn from.”

Gu Wenheng raised his eyes and glanced at Li Ji. "General Li should have just flipped through it roughly. Usually, this man likes to read miscellaneous books and strange stories, and combined various clues in the text, and then slowly figured it out.

If Lieutenant General Li had this intention, he would be able to succeed.

I am also inheriting the wisdom of my ancestors, so I dare not take credit for it.”

"No matter what, this is also a great thing that will benefit the world. I think after this incident, Master Gu's promotion is just around the corner."

"Yes, Master Gu, please don't forget to support us after you get promoted."

These people can talk about something that hasn't even happened yet and it makes sense.

Gu Wenheng stood there from beginning to end, listening quietly. When everyone stopped, he said, "Thank you all for your kind words. It's a pity that this is still in the testing stage. Whether it can really succeed or not, we have to wait until the ship goes out to sea for a round before we can make a decision.

Now that we have finished touring the ships, I will not delay your rest time any longer. Sir, please come in!"

He Gaofei and the others didn't expect that after saying such good things for so long, Gu Wenheng still didn't follow up.

Just as he was racking his brains to think of how to bring up the topic, Li Ji, who was always outspoken, was the first to lose his patience.

"Master Gu, I asked your wife to raise funds for stocks a few days ago. I happened to be busy and didn't have time to participate. I wonder if I can participate now."

At this moment, Zhou Shixiong really wanted to cover his mouth and have him dragged away immediately. This guy was getting more and more shameless.

He had notified everyone about the previous shareholding, so what does he mean by saying this now?

Vice Admiral Wang never indulged Li Ji. "Admiral Li seems to be quite young, but his memory is a bit problematic. I asked you about it that day. What did you say then?"

Li Ji quickly interrupted, "I was not in a good mood that day, and I listened to what you said in a daze, but I didn't take it seriously.

Later I remembered that you were silent again, so I thought the matter was over.

It was only when I got on the boat today that I suddenly remembered this matter.

This is something that benefits the country and the people. As a lieutenant general, how can I not participate? "

The words and deeds actually put oneself in a high position.

"Commander Li is worthy of having spent some time with scholars. He is so talkative and has the final say on what he says." Deputy General Wang's eyes widened, his impression of this man's shamelessness deepened.

Li Ji had already given up hope. Anyway, all the people under General Zhou showed signs of being enemies with him, so why shouldn't he act even more recklessly?

Anyway, these people can't do anything to him. As long as he sticks to Minister Chen in the court, he won't have to worry about a good future.

"Madam Gu, what do you think? I can bet my entire fortune on it." Li Ji revealed his trump card, thinking that Jin Qianqian, who had been trying to get others to invest, would not refuse.

Jin Qianqian, "This is really too risky, I dare not take on this responsibility.

What’s more, all the partners who joined previously have been found.”

"That's not difficult, just add it in."

Jin Qianqian, "General Li has misunderstood. This is our first voyage, and I dare not make a big fuss. This would involve great risks.

I have already risked my entire fortune, and I dare not drag you into this again.

Whether it is now or in the future, the shares given out before are fixed, and if General Li is interested, he can find someone else to sell them. "

Anyway, she has given the idea, and now we should worry about those who are still wavering.

When Li Ji heard this, he knew that it was just an excuse from the other party.

However, the people standing in front of him were people he couldn't easily provoke, so he could only turn his attention to the others.
