"This is also a wool fabric." Zhao Xiancheng replied.

Zheng Zhilong nodded with a smile, then continued to walk forward, walked to a shelf, saw a row of paper boxes placed on it, and picked them up, and the words "cigarette" were written on the paper boxes.

"Cigarette? What is it?"

"It's a cigarette made of tobacco leaves and tobacco paper. Anyone who is addicted to smoking can try it out." Zhao Xiancheng said.

"Who are you trying?" Zheng Zhilong turned his head and asked.

"I'll do it." A tall and powerful man stood up. The man walked to the shelf and stretched out his hand.

Zhao Xiancheng quickly opened the cigarette box, took out a cigarette, and handed it to the man. The man took the cigarette, kept it in his hand and watched for a long time before taking out the fire stick, blew it, and lit the cigarette. He took a deep breath, frowned slightly, and after a moment, his mouth opened and spit out smoke, and praised him repeatedly: "What a cigarette! I have never smoked such a good cigarette! It's much easier to smoke than the water hookah I've smoked!"

Many people planted tobacco leaves in Zhangzhou, and many people in the Zheng family smoked. Tobacco was not unusual at the time. Driven by profits, many farmers did not grow grain and switched tobacco.

However, people did not know how to make tobacco cured tobacco at that time. Li Guodong just tried to make tobacco leaves seized from bandits into tobacco cured tobacco. He made a little, but the quantity was not large. This time he also brought it to Hangzhou. As soon as he took it out, he was immediately praised by some old cigarette guns.

Zheng Zhilong saw the small coal stove again and was very curious. He walked forward, opened the coal stove cover, lifted it up again, then put it down, looked carefully for a long time before he nodded: "No, it's a good thing! This thing is small and durable. It seems that coal is used in this way, and charcoal can be used? If charcoal is used, it seems that it can save a lot of charcoal."

Zheng Zhihu, Zheng Zhibao, Zheng Zhifeng, Shi Daxuan and others behind him were very confused. Why did Zheng Zhilong look down on those exquisite goods, but he stayed in this junk store for so long? He seemed to be very interested in those junk.

"Who is the shopkeeper of this Dadewang Business Company?" Zheng Zhilong asked.

"It's just a humble position!" Li Guodong stood up and bowed.

"Haughty position?" Zheng Zhilong was stunned.

Li Guodong took out his waist sign and presented it to Zheng Zhilong with both hands: "Please check it out."

Zheng Zhilong took the waist card and looked at it. He was so shocked that he opened his mouth wide and couldn't close it for a long time. After a while, Zheng Zhilong slowly said: "So you are the second Li Lao Er who killed a captive chief! I didn't expect you to come to Hangzhou!"

"I came to Hangzhou not only to sell the goods in my hands, but also to find sweet potatoes. This product is drought-resistant and grows fast, which can solve the problem of insufficient food in the north." Li Guodong said.

Zheng Zhilong said "Oh", his eyes closed slightly, as if he was thinking about something. After about a cup of tea, he suddenly opened his eyes, and his eyes emitted a light, directly shooting Li Guodong: "General Li is willing to go back to Fujian with Zheng? He can cooperate with General Li, which has the best tea in Fujian and has improved sweet potatoes."

"I have this intention."

"Okay!" Zheng Zhilong suppressed the ecstasy in his heart and nodded slightly. He thought to himself: It would be great that this person could come! Can he cast cannons? Then let him cast a batch of cannons for me, and it just happened to be used to deal with Liu Xiang and Hong Maoyi!

"Brother, are we really going to follow them?" Han Dashan asked in a low voice in Li Guodong's ear.

Li Guodong replied softly: "Yes, let's go to Fujian. Once we get some black tea, the most important thing is to get improved sweet potatoes. We will take them back to the north to plant them, which can save many people. In addition, we can also go to Macau to find Folang Jimen to get a batch of self-produced muskets."

Next, Zheng Zhilong asked about the price. After Li Guodong quoted the price, Zheng Zhilong felt that it was not expensive at all, so he readily took out the silver notes and bought all of Li Guodong's goods.

When Zheng Zhilong asked someone to carry the goods out of the coloring shed of Dadewang Business, the merchants around him looked at Li Guodong's coloring shed with envious eyes.

When he returned to his residence, Zheng Zhihu and others asked in confusion: "Brother, you don't even like so many exquisite goods, why do you like this pile of rags?"

Zheng Zhilong laughed: "Brothers, do you think we are doing business, the more people buy our goods, the better, or the fewer people buy our goods, the better?"

"Of course, the more, the better." Zheng Zhibao rushed to answer.

"Well, that's all? These goods are not good, but they are good things for the people, especially those living in cold areas. We sell a few pieces of jewelry and glass mirrors, and although we buy a few thousand taels of silver, there are very few people who can afford these things, not to mention that those valuable items will suffer heavy losses if a ship sinks. These wool and wool fabrics can be sold in large quantities. Especially wool fabrics are good for our fleets that often travel to Japan. We put on a wool fabric dress on the outside and wear a wool sweater on the inside, and it's not cold at all. Just like we sell raw silk to Japan, it's not very valuable, right? But there are so many, so it's profitable."

Everyone suddenly realized what Zheng Zhilong said. Then Zheng Zhihu and others went up to touch the sweater and wool fabric. After touching it, they were shocked: "This thing is not good-looking, but it feels so good! If we join forces with the Li family and enter some white fabric from them, we dye it ourselves. It will definitely be a good price to sell it to Japan."

"That General Li is also a good cannon caster! Just now General Li agreed to us and was willing to follow us to Fujian! As long as he goes to Fujian, we will ask him to help us cast his cannon caster! As for the money, as long as the price he offered was not too outrageous, we can give it to him!" Zheng Zhilong said another thing, which caused an uproar among the crowd.

"Is that General Li really that powerful to cast cannons?" Zheng Zhihu asked in disbelief.

"Although I haven't seen it with my own eyes, I have heard of it. Now, the three-year-old field guns in the Ming army are the work of this man. In this way, it should be easy for him to cast a naval gun for me."

"Brother, as long as the person named Li is really that powerful, we will give him money to make cannons! Liu Xiang colluded with a red-haired ghost, and the brothers were accidentally snatched by the dog thief!" Zheng Zhifeng said.

"Battles are the most important in naval warfare. If there are good cannons, how many brothers can be sacrificed less!" Zheng Zhilong nodded, "As long as the cannons he cast are really useful, you can give him more money."

After a moment, Shi Daxuan hurried in: "Brother, I have already booked the venue tonight in Baihua Building by the lake as my brother told me."

"Okay!" Zheng Zhilong nodded, "Brothers, I will treat General Li to the evening. You all go together. Let's have a good time tonight!"
