The four rules set by Tianjin Ocean Trading Company quickly spread throughout the Beijing-Tianjin area. The Ming Dynasty Morning Post even published the time, route, and itinerary of this trip to Nanyang in the most conspicuous and eye-catching position. As well as several rules set by Tianjin Ocean Trading Company.
Suddenly, the whole Tianjin was in a state of agitation.
Not only the powerful capitalists, big businessmen, trading houses, fleets, etc. are seizing the time to prepare to go to Nanyang, but even some weak people are planning to follow them to the Nanyang region.
??In a house in Moon Bay Community, Xincheng, Tianjin.
"Wang Gensheng, what do you say?"
"You should come up with an idea. Should we go to Nanyang together?"
In Wang Gensheng¡¯s house, five people were sitting together. Tang Mazi looked at Wang Gensheng and said.
Wang Gensheng and Tang Mazi were among the first batch of students to graduate from the Tianjin Maritime Academy. The income of seafarers is very high, and they were the first to enter, so now they are at least deputy captain level.
Some of them have done well and have even become their own bosses. They have bought their own ships and opened ocean-going trading houses, specializing in routes between Japan and Korea. They are all prosperous.
The five people in front of me are all the first batch of students. Each one has a high income and has accumulated a lot of wealth. Not long ago, Wang Gensheng, Tang Mazi, Yao Ding, Zhao Li, and Shi Wenlong also formed a partnership to study for the Ming Dynasty. A bank loan bought a large sailboat from Tianjin Shipyard, which can be regarded as embarking on the path of starting a business and becoming one's own boss.
" However, the five people bought the boat a little later. So far, they have only made one trip to Japan. They barely made hundreds of thousands of taels of silver and still owe tens of thousands of taels of loans from the First Bank of Ming Dynasty.
Logically speaking, they should be relatively satisfied, because as long as they visit Japan again, they can pay off the loan they owe to the First Bank of Ming Dynasty, and then they can just wait for the money to come rolling in.
However, the recent trip to Japan also made Wang Gensheng, Tang Mazi, and Yao Ding realize a problem, that is, the business of going to North Korea and Japan is getting harder and harder, and the risks are getting bigger and bigger.
One is that the competition is too fierce, and everyone's profits are constantly eroding. The markets in North Korea and Japan are becoming saturated. The market is so big. If everyone is doing it, naturally they won't make much money.
The other thing is that the Japanese country is getting more and more chaotic. At this time, the Japanese country has almost entered the Warring States Period. The daimyo in various places are fighting against each other, making the entire Japanese country extremely chaotic.
As a result, many wandering samurai who lost their owners became Japanese pirates and robbed passing merchant ships on the routes of Japan and Korea. Not long ago, a merchant ship was robbed, and the owner of this merchant ship happened to be acquainted with them, and they were also in Tianjin at the same time as the college. thought the trainees' boat.
It can be said that it was looted, everything was in vain, and even life could not be saved.
If the ships of Tianjin Ocean Trading Co., Ltd. were not very domineering, every time they encountered Japanese pirates and pirates, they would piss each other's ass off, which dealt a heavy blow to the arrogance of these Japanese pirates. Otherwise, there would be no routes to North Korea and Japan at all. Way to go.
Realizing this, this time Tianjin Ocean Trading Company was going to Nanyang again to open a Nanyang route. They knew that the opportunity had come. This was a very rare opportunity.
"What do you say?"
Wang Gensheng looked at Tang Mazi, Yao Ding, Zhao Li and Shi Wenlong, thought for a while and asked.
"Fight~"
¡°There is no reason not to seize such a good opportunity.¡±
Yao Ding gritted his teeth and said.
"Yes, work hard. Although we only have one ship, as long as this trip goes well, I believe that after returning, our fleet will be able to add a few more new ships, and we will be familiar with the Nanyang route. We will not take this route in the future We have decided to take the Japanese route, specifically taking the more profitable Nanyang route."
"This Nanyang region can also go to South Asia, Arabia, and even Europe in the future. Didn't Mr. Liu say that in this European region, a piece of our silk can be equal to gold, and this spice is even more valuable than gold in Europe?" .¡±
"After we become familiar with the Nanyang route, we will have more routes and choices to take in the future, and there will be a lot of room for future development. We can also go to Africa, which produces gems, ivory, and gold."
"The profit of a round trip is at least dozens of times, or even hundreds of times. It is much more profitable than taking the Japanese and North Korean routes."
Zhao Li thought for a while and nodded.
His words also made other people nod their heads, which is why everyone wanted to follow Tianjin Ocean Trading Company after it opened a south-ocean route.
Because this is not only for this time¡¯s profit, but also for the future.
The geographical location of the Nanyang region is really important. You can go to Australia to the east, and you can go to South Asia, Arabia, Africa, and Europe to the west. Once you get a foothold here, you can work as a cashier in the future.
"But we only have one ship, and we still owe the bank loan. If something happens"
Wang Gensheng thought for a while and then hesitated.
¡°What happened to a ship?¡±
"Our ship is a ship from Tianjin Shipyard, and there is absolutely no problem with its quality. As for our sailing skills, the five of us are experienced sailors. I dare not say anything else. There is absolutely no problem keeping up with the ships of Tianjin Ocean Trading Company. "
"Anyway, didn't Tianjin Ocean Trading Company say it here? As long as they abide by those four rules, anyone can follow. There is no limit on how large the ship must be or how many ships it must have before it can go to Nanyang."
Tang Mazi said immediately.
"Yes, one ship at a time, with Tianjin Ocean Trading Company at the front, those pirates and Japanese pirates don't dare to provoke us at all."
"And I have heard that Mr. Liu is planning to organize a cleanup operation to wipe out the Japanese pirates and pirates on the Japanese and Korean routes."
"In the future, the pirates and Japanese pirates in the Nanyang region will definitely be wiped out by Mr. Liu. If we don't occupy this route now, we will not have a share in the future."
Yao Ding also nodded and said.
"Well, since everyone has said so, let's fight this time."
Wang Gensheng thought for a while, shook his head and said.
"That's right, we are all sailors. If we don't fight now while we are young, when will we fight?"
When Tang Mazi heard this, he happily patted Wang Gensheng on the shoulder.
¡°Come on, let¡¯s all work together to figure out what preparations we should make if we go to the Nanyang region.¡±
Wang Gensheng smiled, and then took out a map.
"This Nanyang region is relatively close to our Ming Dynasty and has always been monopolized by big businessmen and families in the south. Therefore, if we go to the Nanyang region, although the profits of silk, porcelain and other things from our Ming Dynasty are quite high, they are definitely limited. of."
"So I think that when it comes to the selection and preparation of our goods, we can bring less traditional goods such as silk, porcelain, and tea, and we should bring more goods that can be sold at good prices."
"What you said makes sense, and there are many caravans heading to Nanyang this time. The goods they bring are basically the same. The prices of tea, silk, porcelain, cloth, etc. in Tianjin have all increased."
"In my opinion, we can bring more glass products to the Nanyang region."
Yao Ding suggested after pondering for a while.
"No, no, glass products are too expensive. We have limited funds on hand. We can't buy many glass products at all. Moreover, this glass factory is owned by Mr. Liu. This Tianjin Ocean Trading House will definitely bring a large amount of glass. If the finished products go to Nanyang, we can¡¯t keep up.¡±
"In my opinion, we can bring some ironware from the Miyun Iron Factory and sugar from Ryukyu City to the Nanyang region. These two things are very popular even in our Ming Dynasty."
"I heard once that if this sugar can be shipped to Europe, it can be worth as much as gold. Globally, sugar is a luxury product."
"Currently, only Ryukyu City can produce sugar on a large scale as long as we are in the Ming Dynasty. If we bring more sugar there, we will definitely be able to sell it at a good price~"
"The same goes for ironware. The price of ironware from Miyun Iron Factory is very low. Not to mention selling it to the Nanyang region, even if it is sold to North Korea and Japan, the profit is quite high, and it is very popular. Now the Japanese side is interested in Miyun Iron Factory The demand for ironware is very high, almost as much as there is available."
"These two things are good, but the candy is very expensive, and the iron is not cheap either. Our funds are very tight and it is not easy to do things."
¡°If you don¡¯t have money, you can borrow it, you can get a loan~¡±
"We can actually rent out some of our cabins to maximize our profits. I think there must be some people who don't have boats who are willing to lend us money or rent our cabins."
"Yes, yes, two days ago I heard that Boss Tang wanted to go to Nanyang, but he didn't have a ship and had a lot of money and goods in his hands, so he could only worry."
