Chapter 3003 Revive the family business
Because this is the first time that the official has made great efforts to do overseas trade, not only has it received a lot of tariffs, but after these people come back from Nanyang, they can also bring back the supplies and gold, silver and jewelry needed by the Great Zhou.
Then there will be import tariffs.
Both import and export can be taxed, and there are thirty ships of Emperor An of Zhou and the income of the imperial merchants from the Xue family. According to expectations, they can also make a lot of money back.
Therefore, this time, thousands of navy troops escorted these ships to the south of the Yangtze River for the sake of training to ensure the safety of the ships.
With official escorts, these maritime merchants were completely relieved and could be invincible unless they were in bad weather.
Xue Pan was worried. After experiencing this incident, he became much more calm. He wanted to use his actions to tell those who were following the Xue family that Xue Pan could also revive the Xue family and go to Southeast Asia with the fleet himself.
In order to revitalize the Xue family's family business, Xue Pan worked hard this time. In addition, he also learned a lot from the fact that he overturned the case.
Wealth and honor are in danger. If you are unwilling to take risks, how can you get wealth and honor?
My father used to go to sea, so it was time for him this time.
After Aunt Xue and Xue Baochai received Xue Pan's letter, Xue Pan was now on the Xue family's caravan ship, and was getting farther and farther away from Jinling, and was about to reach Nanyang.
Aunt Xue fainted after receiving Xue Pan's letter.
How easy is it to make a living at sea?
If the ship sinks, it will be impossible to reach the sky or the ground, it will be called every day and every day, and it will be called the earth and the earth will not work!
Xue Baochai quickly asked the doctor to take care of her mother, while admiring that her elder brother is now becoming more and more like a responsible person.
If the elder brother can come back smoothly, he will definitely convince the public and become the head of the Xue family's Royal Merchants.
Under the doctor's acupuncture, Aunt Xue slowly woke up, "Pan'er, my son, you are so cruel. You actually left me and your sister, one person, one person..."
Hearing his mother's crying, Xue Baochai quickly stopped him, "Mom, brother is fine. If you cry like this, others would think that brother is gone!
My brother said in the letter that there were hundreds of sea ships going to sea this time, which were very large, and the court also sent a special naval force to escort it. Although there were risks along the way, there would not be too much danger."
Aunt Xue burst into tears and kept crying, "My Pan'er, what should I do? Baochai, please write a letter to your brother and ask your brother to come back."
Xue Baochai frowned. She had heard her father talk about the caravan before. Now, she calculated the time and her brother had left the Great Zhou and arrived in the countries in Nanyang.
"Mom, even if I send someone, my brother is no longer on the Dazhou Road, but on the waterway. Maybe he has arrived in Nanyang now." Xue Baochai replied, "Brother now knows the future. Let's be at home, and I pray that my brother can come back safely and not let my brother have any worries.
By the way, Butler Xue and his brother have found Xiangling's home. It turns out that Xiangling is a scholarly family in Gusu, and his father Zhen Shiyin is also a scholar.
In order to find a daughter, I have spent all my family wealth. Since Xiangling has such a relationship with our Xue family, my brother and Butler Xue have settled Xiangling's family. When my brother comes back, I will hire you and marry Xiangling as my wife."
