The person who came was Huang Chengyu, the third son of the Huang family of the eight major merchants of Shanxi. This person was about 23 or 24 years old, and was about the same age as Xiao Sheng.

He was like those scholars from Jiangnan at this time, like a woman, with a little delicate temperament.

However, when you look at him, you will know that this man is very smart and is not easy to bully.

In Jin, they are the time when they bully others, and they are not the turn of others to bully them.

When he saw Xiao Sheng, Huang Chengyu was also stunned. He only found out that the owner of Liuli Pavilion, the newly-received nobleman, Liulibo, came from the ocean. He seemed to be the legitimate son of a large overseas family, but he did not know the specific age description.

At this time, I saw that I was about the same age as me. At this age, I came across the ocean. This courage and character should not be underestimated.

"Student Huang Chengyu has met the Lord!"

Upon hearing this, Xiao Sheng walked up to him and raised his arm, expressing support, and said, "I am just lucky to get the reward from His Majesty. Brother Huang, don't let me get this bad. Please sit down!"

When Huang Chengyu saw Xiao Sheng as a wise man, he also had a little more smile on his face.

The two sat opposite each other and the servant served tea. Huang Chengyu continued, "After all, the lord is an official, I am just a scholar, how can I afford to be able to stand up?"

"No, no, we are all the same. We are all businessmen, and all we like are silver." Xiao Sheng said with a smile.

This sentence is very naked. You should know that in the Ming Dynasty, no matter which class they are, they like to rely on scholars and nobles. No one is willing to demote themselves, especially those who claim to be lowly people like businessmen.

However, Huang Chengyu felt that Xiao Sheng was very frank and direct. In this regard, the other party obviously had to cooperate sincerely.

Huang Chengyu then replied: "Brother Xiao is so straightforward and a person worthy of close friends!"

Xiao Sheng naturally pretended that he didn't hear this sentence. If he really thought that he could make friends in this way, the other party would not have been sent over, and his eyes would not have looked like that.

"Since that's the case, let's be more straightforward. Brother Huang came this time, probably for the business of this Glazed Treasure Mirror. I am naturally very willing to cooperate to make money, especially with a big businessman from Jindi like the Huang family.

However, the cost of the glass treasure mirror is very expensive, and I can do business here and I can't make much profit. If I cooperate with you, I'm afraid that this business will make us lose all the money." Xiao Sheng said regretfully.

He said this just a difficult thing, but it was not that he could not cooperate, which made Huang Chengyu feel that there was still a chance. He only heard him say: "In terms of profit, of course, we will not let the noble family who came from afar suffer losses. Brother Tai must have come directly to the capital to do the business of this glass treasure mirror. In the south and the north, there are many wealthy families who are willing to buy such treasures, and the prices can be sold at higher prices.

In this way, even if the big guys in the capital take a commission, the profits of both of us will definitely not be reduced."

"Oh? I know the wealth of Jiangnan, but as far as I know, the north is a bitter and cold place, how can there be a wealthy family?" Xiao Sheng said with a pretentious look.

Huang Chengyu smiled mysteriously, took a sip of tea and said, "There is no in the north, but there is more than the north."

Xiao Sheng first thought in confusion, then was shocked and said, "Can they be the Jurchens? How can they do their business? This is a foe!"

"Brother Xiao is at ease. Let me analyze it carefully for you.

The Jurchens plundered the people of our Ming Dynasty many times, and they occupied a lot of wealth from our Ming Dynasty. These wealth originally belonged to our Ming Dynasty. The Jurchens were not good at production and operation, and only needed to exchange a lot of wealth from the Jurchens to supplement our Ming Dynasty with low-valued things. Isn’t this to increase the wealth of our Ming Dynasty?” Huang Chengyu talked eruditely.

These words make some sense in my ears.

But Xiao Sheng knew that the wealth they exchanged for was snatched by them by them, and that the wealth fell into their pockets, buried underground by them, and became the wealth of the family, and would not bring any benefits to the Ming Dynasty.

It is really disgusting to be a traitor, but he wants to show a patriotic look.

"It seems that Brother Huang is not wrong, but I still think there is something wrong with this transaction with the enemy country. Moreover, to be honest, 70% of the profits of this glass treasure mirror are from Nine Thousands of Sui. If we cooperate, with the power of Nine Thousands of Sui, we will definitely be able to find it.

At that time, I'm afraid we may not be charged with collusion with enemies and treason! "Xiao Sheng said worriedly.

Huang Chengyu saw it, but he felt contemptuous. This person came from overseas and would not have any sense of belonging to the Ming Dynasty. As expected, at the beginning, he was just an excuse, and he was afraid of being involved in the trouble.

"Haha, there is no need to worry about this. In fact, Jiu Qiansui is also a little involved with our Huang family. In this trade with the Jurchens, Jiu Qiansui also has a commission." Huang Chengyu smiled.

Xiao Sheng was shocked when he heard this and blurted out: "How could this happen?!"

"Why can't it be? Brother Xiao said he was a businessman. Could it be that he had forgotten the saying that money could understand the gods? As long as the profit was large enough, this business would probably join in, let alone nine thousand years old, even if it was long live." Huang Chengyu's smile unconsciously showed a kind of presumptuousness, arrogance, and ignorance of the king were engraved into his bones.

They are indeed absolute egoists who do not take the emperor or the country seriously.

Xiao Sheng was silent for a few seconds, and then said, "I need to think about this matter carefully. Let's do this. How will I answer Brother Huang tomorrow?"

"Okay, then I'll wait for good news from Brother Xiao. I hope we can become the best partners. As long as we, Xiao and Huang, can join hands, we will definitely gain greater wealth. I won't bother you anymore. Brother Xiao stays and say goodbye!"

Huang Chengyu left, Xiao Sheng looked at his left back and fell into thought.

Huang Chengyu’s business with the Jurchens just now made Xiao Sheng think of a possibility, which is to use the method of “sheep eating people” to cause some trouble for the Jurchens.

Simply put, it is necessary to use industrialized factories to do wool business and make the price of wool, so that the Jurchens feel that raising sheep is more cost-effective than farming, and destroying the farming economy they just established.

Then use various light industrial products to attack the handicraftsmen in the Jurchen tribe and restore their dependence on the Ming Dynasty.

In this way, to a certain extent, as long as trade with them is cut off, they can confuse themselves.

In fact, the Ming Dynasty adopted this method at the beginning, and the results achieved were also very significant. However, later the Shanxi merchants used smuggling to prosper the lives of the Jurchens and even helped them develop.

Therefore, the key to the success of this strategy is actually in force. Without a certain amount of force to control the internal force, resisting invasion, everything you do is futile.
