Chapter 243 Prince Umbrella?

Lin Ruhai saw that Yu Chao was not born and bred in Dagan, and he didn't like those social things, so he didn't intend to continue chatting immediately.

"Brother Yu, I am here this time for both business and private matters. If I can gain something, as long as you ask me for everything I have, I will never refuse!"

When Yu Chao heard this, he almost couldn't hold back his complaints.

If I asked you to send your daughter over to us as a child bride or something, would you be willing and not refuse?
cut!
The words of these officials are quite beautiful, but if you read these words carefully, you will know that there are traps buried in them!
What does it mean to gain something?

Isn’t it all in the other person’s thoughts?

Whether there is, or how much, depends on what you want.

If he thinks it's okay, he will naturally keep his word.

If he feels that you are asking for too much, hey, it's okay to turn your face and deny anyone.

"Hehe, Mr. Lin is too serious, why don't you ask Mr. Lin to tell us what happened first?"

There is no good thing, really think Yu Chao is a fool, just say it casually?

Even when Xue Rong first asked about Umbrella, he just introduced some scenery and unique buildings, but didn't mention anything else.

Many officials came here before, and it was necessary to inquire about the details, but Yu Chao kept silent on all of them on the grounds that Umbrella kept it secret.

Anyway, he is considered auspicious now, and coupled with his special status, who dares to care about it before the court speaks?
What's more, Yu Chao is not unprepared.

Lin Ruhai said a few lies to fool people, trying to get him out of the way. What was he thinking? How could anything be so cheap in the world?

Lin Ruhai sighed first, and then said: "My ancestors of the Lin family were born as marquises, and the descendants of my descendants did not live up to it. In my generation, I only had a Jinshi achievement and was appointed as a Tanhua by the Supreme Emperor."

"Later, he experienced many official positions, and now he has been appointed by the current emperor as Yangzhou Salt Inspection Censor for eight years. I dare not say that I have dedicated myself to this heavy burden, but I have tried my best, but I have not been able to complete the tasks assigned by the imperial court. Great trust."

"Oh, I almost forgot, you may not know much about my situation."

"Well, let me put it simply, regardless of the vastness of the land and resources, there is no major war happening, but there are still many problems in various parts of the country that need to be resolved urgently."

"However, to solve these problems, you need money."

"The Lianghuai Salt Service has always been a major source of tax revenue for the imperial court, but..."

After Lin Ruhai sighed, he thought that this overseas person might not understand this aspect of things, and if I told him these things, he probably wouldn't understand either, so it's better to ask something serious.

"Let's put it this way, I came today to ask you, how much do you know about salt in Umbrella?"

Yu Chaoxin said that you have a reason to talk about so many backgrounds, wouldn't it be enough to say the last sentence earlier.

This can be said casually, anyway, he might have to do business with the court in this area in the future.

After all, this salt is related to the lives of people all over the world. I guess it should be considered a meaningful thing, right?

"Salt? Here, what's the matter? What do you want to ask about Salt?"

Lin Ruhai: "As long as you can talk about salt, such as how to make salt, what is the price of salt, etc."

Yu Chao smiled and said, "To be honest, I just heard that you are the censor inspecting salt, and I was a little puzzled. Does the matter of salt need to be inspected?"

Without waiting for Lin Ruhai to ask more questions, Yu Chao continued: "In Umbrella, salt is just a common thing, not a valuable consumable."

"As for how to make salt, I have heard that it is divided into well salt, mine salt, sea salt, and maybe others. Anyway, there are many ways to make it, but I'm not a professional, so I don't know how to make it."

"The price of salt, how should I put it, the purchasing power of almost a catty of rice can buy half a catty of salt."

Can the purchasing power of a catty of rice buy half a catty of salt?
Lin Ruhai's mind was buzzing as if listening to a book from heaven.

Based on the current market price in Yangzhou, it is almost four Wen for a catty of rice, and nearly five hundred Wen for a catty of coarse salt.

Could it be that Umbrella is really so rich?
No, from the meaning of Brother Yu's words, it seems that the price of salt is very low, so the production of salt is very large?
Wait, it looks like he's talking about Umbrella's situation.

Lin Ruhai asked: "Brother Yu, how many people are there in Umbrella? Is rice expensive?"

Yu Chao was stumped by this question.

Do you want to tell the other party that the number of people is 70 billion?

Impossible.

Once it is said, who will believe it?

"I don't know, I haven't asked about this, and I don't care about it."

Well, young people are ignorant, and it seems that they haven't come out to do things yet, so they can understand without knowing these things.

But, here comes the problem, he doesn't know how to make salt!
And the price of rice was not asked, which is troublesome.

Lin Ruhai said with a grimace as if he missed [-] million taels of gold: "Hey, it's a pity that Umbrella can't be found. Otherwise, the people of our great dynasty may never have to worry about salt again."

Yu Chaoxin said, if there is too much salt and the price drops, will you be able to stay in prison as a salt censor?

"I'm really sorry that I couldn't help you, my lord. How about you talk about your private affairs?"

When Lin Ruhai heard this, he became less and less confident to ask.

At this moment, someone shouted outside.

"Young Master Yu, Young Master Yu."

"Presumptuous! What's the noise?"

"Wharf, a big boat came to the dock, a big and strange boat, on it, someone asked if he had met a person who looked similar to Mr. Yu."

The steward who went out just now was moved in his heart. Didn't Yu Chao say he was from Umbrella?
Didn't it mean that Umbrella didn't even know where it was?

Haha, maybe that Yu Chao is lying and deceiving people, no, someone came to his door, maybe this guy is a wanted criminal in some overseas place.

Hey, when the time comes, the lies will be exposed, some of this guy can bear it!
The crime of bullying the king cannot be pardoned!

"Quickly tell me, what do those outsiders look like, where do they come from, why are you asking?"

Before the servant who came to report the news could answer, a large group of people in official uniforms hurried in.

"Quick, where is Mr. Yu, take me to see him!" Qian Zhifu asked anxiously.

The little chief immediately nodded and bowed, stepped forward to flatter him and said, "Master Zhifu, the liar named Yu is in the living room, don't worry, he can't escape, the villain will go and tie him up."

"Snapped!"

Magistrate Qian slapped the young boss hard, making him stunned.

"presumptuous!"

"What are you, you dare to offend my most honored guest, and if you don't give up to the prefect, I will deal with you later!"

Magistrate Qian had no time to chat with this short-sighted guy, so he hurried towards the living room.

Lin Ruhai heard the commotion outside, and couldn't help but look at Yu Chao, indicating what's going on?

Yu Chao shook his head pretending to be blank, and looked outside.

"Oh, Mr. Yu, oh no, it should be called Your Highness the Prince."

prince?

Your Highness?

Can this title be used casually?
Isn't Qian Yiqing's brain burnt out?
Lin Ruhai: "Master Qian, what are you doing?"

Qian Zhifu smiled and said: "Oh, Mr. Lin is here too. I'm also confused at the moment. Damn, let's hurry to the pier and talk about it."

Zhifu Qian didn't care so much, he was about to go out with Yu Chao who was already calm.

Seeing this, Lin Ruhai hurriedly chased after him.

What's the matter, you're in such a hurry.

Who isn't curious yet?

No, just grab someone at random and start typing.

It turned out that a pier guard reported that there was a huge boat on the sea. It was estimated to be a hundred feet long, twenty or thirty feet wide, and seven to eighty feet high. There was also a flag with a pattern like an umbrella hanging on it. .

They were a little worried that it was a pirate attack, so they reported it immediately.

The Maritime Yamen and the Yangzhou Prefect Yamen hurriedly mobilized guards to rush towards the pier.

When the boat got a little closer, they were all dumbfounded.

Ships, as we all know, rely on sails to set sail.

But the boat in front of me was different. It had no sails, and it was extremely fast. It was still going against the wind.

What's more, the dense cannon muzzle protruding from the bow and the surrounding area made Zhifu Qian and the others feel a bit chilled.

Who is this?

If they hadn't seen only one big ship, they would have ordered the fort at the harbor wharf to fire a few shells as a warning.

Ahem, although the cannon was not fired, there are still many necessary defensive measures.

Immediately, there were flag bearers waving flags of different colors and asking each other about their intentions.

Fortunately, the other party replied, no, Qian Zhifu and others sent a boat to meet.

After the people came back, they learned that this was Umbrella's ship, and they came to find their lost prince.

And from the other party's description, doesn't the prince he is looking for look like Yu Chao?

Therefore, Zhifu Qian hurriedly came to find Yu Chao, and asked him to go and implement the situation on the ground, so as not to cause state disputes by the way.

His Royal Highness Prince?

Hey, is this Yu Chao the prince of Umbrella?
Oh my god, lucky you!
Finding an overseas adherent is not the same as finding a prince who established a country overseas, and he was a former overseas adherent.

If Daganchao and Umbrella will establish diplomatic relations in the future, obediently, how many benefits can be found in it!

Yu Chao is not worried about this situation at all, because this is what he arranged.

Don't forget, for the three rewards given by the portable space, he will prepare a ship and a team for the first two.

Well, although the boat looks wooden on the surface, that's just what it looks like. In reality, it's made of steel.

Why is this so?

Don't forget that the illusion has been integrated into the portable space. This small modification is still very simple.

As for why it took a few days to come?

Of course, Yu Chao asked his subordinates to prepare some supplies.

There are only [-] capable people and no backup force. How to ensure his safety when he is working hard?
Therefore, these people first went to look for pirates, and searched for some supplies by the way, so they couldn't live too shabby in Dagan in the future, right?

As for any more, we have to take one step at a time.

As for the prince's status, well, Yu Chao did think about it.

Compared with the simple overseas adherents, although it was a bit new at first, the time and space of the Red Chamber pays attention to the identity and background.

If Yu Chao was just a commoner, wouldn't anyone be able to handle it? What's the point of such a life?

But if he has the status of a prince, or even a king, wouldn't it be better when he talks to the Dagan court?

At the very least, with an unknown overseas country behind them, and strong ships and powerful guns, those who have ulterior motives should be more cautious.

Anyway, everything is an attempt, even if it is wrong, what loss does Yu Chao have?
