As soon as Huangfu Chaobo's fleet came ashore, it was surrounded by aristocratic families and businessmen from all over the east of the Yangtze River who had already arrived. The main attraction was that there were hundreds of excellent horses on board.

For the business of the caravan, Huangfu Chaobo didn't pay much attention to it. He had already given it to a manager of the caravan sent by the MI family. However, he brought Jia Jing and Dian Wei to Dantu city quietly. This was their first time to enter the city of Jiangnan.

Different from the northern city where I live all the year round, the city of Jiangdong is also full of ditches. Walking on the streets of Danyang, you can see players rushing by everywhere. The players here are different from those in the north. Many of them are wearing silk clothes unique to the south. You can see that they are all life players.

The south is not the same as the north. The south is rich in food. The south is also rich in fishery resources. In addition, the South can grow mulberry and raise silkworms, and it is far away from the war in the Central Plains. Therefore, the overall stability of players and NPCs is much higher than that in the north.

Another point is that the shipbuilding industry in the south is extremely developed. Many players are developing shipbuilding industry in their territory, while ordinary players are exploring by buying ships, which also promotes the development of Jiangdong shipbuilding industry.

Although it is said that the high-end ship manufacturing is still in the hands of the aristocratic family and the government, the middle and low-end ship manufacturing has developed very well under the full impact of the players. Huangfu Chaobo believes that in time, it will only take a few years, and the players will certainly master the more advanced ship manufacturing.

Along the way, not only players come and go, but also many barbarian warriors in animal skins can be seen from time to time. Most of them are recruited and trained by players.

At the end of the day, Huangfu Chaobo and Jia Jing had a rough tour of Danyang City. Until it was getting dark, they left the city before the city gate was closed and went back to the wharf outside the city to have a rest.

Back on the boat, after dinner, Huangfu Chaobo was about to rest when he heard someone asking for help outside the cabin.

"Tell Marquis, shopkeeper MI, to see you!"

Huangfu Chaobo was stunned. Shopkeeper Mi Fu was the person in charge of the high team. He was originally a member of the MI family and one of the most effective shopkeepers of Mi's business firm. At this time, he went south to trade. With the consent of Huangfu Chaobo, MI Zhu specially sent him to take charge of the whole business team.

As early as when he got on the ship in Qingzhou, Huangfu Chaobo had made it clear that he was fully responsible for the caravan business to Mi Fu, and he would not come forward. So as soon as he arrived at the estuary of the river, he was the one who came forward to communicate with Liu Yao, the governor of Yangzhou. After the fleet landed, he was responsible for the sale of goods and the purchase of grain.

I didn't expect to see him at this time. Is there anything he can't handle? You should know that the MI family represents general Anton's house, and the princes of the world generally want to give some face, even the Cao and Yuan families, because the smooth flow of business roads is related to their own economy, they will not give up on the caravan.

What's more, Jiangdong, who has no conflict of interest with Anton's mansion, has no reason to embarrass him. Thinking of this, Huangfu Chaobo ordered him to come in.

A moment later, Mi Fu went into the cabin and said, "I've seen you before!"

For the old people of MI family, they all regard themselves as servants of Huangfu Chaobo, so they call themselves servants when they meet.

Huangfu Chaobo nodded and said, "get up. What's the matter?"

"Well," Mi Fu got up and replied respectfully, "today, the old servant met with the people who care for the family. They said that if they could, they would like to see the principal. Their purpose is to cooperate with us and monopolize the horse business of general Anton's mansion in the south of the Yangtze River. The old servant can't be the master, so I'd like to ask the Marquis for instructions."

Huangfu Chaobo recognized the meaning of his words. What Gu wanted to do was not only Jiangdong, but also the whole Yangtze River Basin in Jingzhou and Yizhou.

"Ha ha... He has a strong sense of caring for his family. He wants to monopolize the business of Jiangnan. In your opinion, can he care for his family? "

"From the old servant's point of view, it's hard for him to take care of his family and eat them. But according to the tone of the people, there should be other aristocratic families joining in. In this case, it's not difficult to eat the whole Jiangnan war horse. What's more, they mean they can eat at least 10000 horses a year. "

Huangfu was also surprised when he heard that 5000 horses a year, according to the price of level 40 horses, the official price in Youzhou was about 12000 copper. When he came to Luoyang and Central Plains, the price was basically 20000 copper. If he went to Jiangnan, the price would at least double, that is 60000 copper.

You know, today, there are only a few places to sell war horses, including Liangzhou, Bingzhou and Youzhou. Except for the two families in Malaysia and South Korea, the horses in Liangzhou were basically digested by the Xiliang army itself. Bingzhou's war horse Lu Bu didn't sell much to the outside world, so there were not many war horses sold to the outside world except for Youzhou Huangfu Chaobo.

In addition to the successive wars in the Central Plains, war horses have become strategic materials prohibited by various vassals from leaving the country, so there are basically no war horses to buy in Jiangdong and Jingnan, so the price can be said to be extremely high.If you buy grain from Jiangdong, one kilo of grain is five copper, and one stone is five hundred copper. The 60000 gold can produce 1.2 million stone grain.

Of course, if you are acting for them, you can't sell it at this price, but you can sell at least 20000 to 30000 copper pieces. If you calculate in this way, there will be hundreds of thousands of stones of grain. Moreover, it will save the trouble of purchasing by the caravan of Anton Army, which can be said to be more cost-effective.

Another point is that the strong dragon can't suppress the local leaders. Anton's army went south to Jiangdong to seek wealth, not to build up the enemy. Therefore, it is necessary to find a suitable partner in Jiangdong.

Huangfu Chaobo stood in the cabin and looked out at the Danyang City several miles away from the window. He saw that there was a bright light and it looked very lively. After a moment's meditation, he turned to Mi Fu and said, "you can arrange it for them, give them a little breath, and say that we will arrange important people to discuss cooperation with them, and let them send people who can make decisions."

Mi Fu agreed, and then he stepped back.

The next day, Huangfu Chaobo didn't leave the building, but was waiting for someone to take care of his family. In the middle of the day, Mi Fu from the dock came to report that the family members had arrived at the dock. Huangfu Chaobo immediately asked people to come aboard.
