The more banned it, the higher the price. This is common sense, and the ones that are often banned are mostly ordinary people, because ordinary people or merchants dare to go into business, and once they are caught, they will be beheaded.

But some people may not be the case. For example, some wealthy families have great influence. Some people in the court do not say that, even in the local area, they are also the roles that local officials rely on. Do such people dare to investigate such a sea route?

So, smuggling occurred. For example, if the Lu family wants to smuggle, who dares to stop it? This kind of smuggling can be described as open and upright. Anyone who knows the details will be silent and never dare to make a statement. Then a ship of silk and porcelain will be defeated in the process of maritime trade, and in the blink of an eye, it will produce dozens or even hundreds of times huge profits.

At this time, Ye Song said again: "I was listening just now. When I heard the trade franchise of Zhenguo Mansion and thought of the background of the Lu family, I felt something was wrong. I said bravely. If Zhenguo Mansion really had a trade franchise, wouldn't it be ruined by the Lu family's job? If the Lu family's job was ruined, how could he come to visit the door so politely? Also, he also gave gifts, the gift list was very generous, there were two jade bis, and... "

Ye Chunqiu suddenly understood and said randomly: "He is here to test."

Ye Song nodded and said, "Yes, it should be here to test it. After all, the Zhenguo Mansion trade has issued an edict, so how could he object? But... I don't think it's so simple."

Of course, it would not be so simple. Ye Chunqiu thought to himself that once the monopoly is broken, the pricing power will not be monopolized by smuggling merchants. There should be many people like the Lu family. They are not just making money by themselves. They should have been dealt with in many joints. To put it bluntly, it is both huge profits and the cost is also not small. Once the Zhenguo Mansion imports and exports goods on a large scale, these smuggling big merchants will be surprised if they don’t go bankrupt.

This kind of smuggling business is often brought up through various relationship networks, which is not simple.

Ye Chunqiu thought for a while and said, "Please order someone to return the gift and tell the Lu family that the gift is too expensive and we can't afford it."

"Okay." Ye Song nodded straightforwardly.

At this moment, Ye Chunqiu's eyes became less severe when he looked at Ye Song. In fact, among the three brothers of his father, his father was a nerd, and his third uncle was a little confused. The second uncle seemed more capable. If it weren't for the conflict between the big house and the second house, Ye Song would have been alone in the Ye family.

This time, it seemed that he had figured it out that their father and son had no other way, so they could only flatter their nephew. So when they heard Ye Chunqiu ask him to give up the ceremony, they happily agreed.

Ye Chunqiu frowned again: "If he invited me to the banquet, I would say that I had something to do. I really couldn't stand it. Second uncle would go and meet them for a while. And Ningbo, let's find out how many people are doing big business in Nanzhili, Jiangsu, Zhejiang and Fujian, and it's better to have a clear mind. Especially the Lu family, since he has arrived, he must be the key figure among them."

Ye Song quickly responded again, just about to leave.

Ye Chunqiu suddenly said, "Second uncle, wait a moment."

Ye Song stopped and said hurriedly: "I wonder what else to give?"

Ye Chunqiu's tone became gentle and said, "If you want to do something, it's impossible to do it without money. Go to the account to pay a thousand taels of silver. I will say hello to Uncle Dong."

Ye Song froze for a moment, which surprised him a little, but soon, he nodded heavily and then hurried away.

This sudden Lu Wenjie made Ye Chunqiu feel a little alert. He suddenly understood why when the British Duke Zhang Mao met him, he suddenly said that he was afraid that it was not so simple.

To put it bluntly, smugglers pursue maritime bans. Only by banning a total can they make huge profits. Now, although the Ming Dynasty did not open the sea and the Zhenguo Mansion obtained trade concessions, it was equivalent to letting the sea ban open a gap. With the strength of the Zhenguo Mansion, will they still have their own share in the future? I guess these people were anxious when they heard about this, but they were doing a beheading business, and they could not put such things on the table.

I believe that at this time, many people were so worried that they had begun to eat without any taste and couldn't sleep at night.

Ye Chunqiu pondered for a moment and then headed to the yard where he lived. As soon as he arrived at the door of the wing room, the door was just open. Wang Jingchu was sitting in front of the round table in the middle of the wing room and reading a book. Qiuyue was standing by her side waiting.

Ye Chunqiu walked into the wing room quietly. He didn't want to disturb Wang Jingchu's concentration reading, but Wang Jingchu was aware of it. Looking back at him coming back, he quickly stood up and smiled and said, "Husband is coming back early today!"

Ye Chunqiu also showed a gentle smile and said, "I've finished my business today, so I'll come back earlier. Oh, I want to ask you one thing, is your Wang family doing any big deal?"

Wang Jingchu is also from Zhejiang. When he heard the big business, he knew a little, and said, "I dare not behead him. You know the nature of my father. He is the imperial teacher and has always been responsible for his duties. Otherwise, how could there be great ups and downs? But..."

Ye Chunqiu said: "But what?"

Wang Jingchu frowned and said, "How many family friends have you heard of them at your parents' home..."

A family friendship?

Ye Chunqiu said, "Wang Hua is a gentleman, so he refused to do it." However, most of the people on the official side have some connections. I believe that even my father-in-law knows something, but without cutting off the robe, it means that my father-in-law is not easy to make a statement. To put it bluntly, the big business in Jiangsu and Zhejiang areas is still the doctrine of the mean harming people. Even a gentleman, when he sees illegal things, he can do it. He only thinks that others' affairs are not known, so those who make huge profits behind their backs will be so shocked and fearless.

Seeing that Ye Chunqiu's face was not very good, Wang Jingchu guessed that it was related to official business. As a female family member in the inner hut, she didn't ask too much, but when she saw his expression flashing a little irritable, she smiled and said, "Speaking of it, there is something interesting, I think it's ridiculous. Come on, husband, sit down, I'll tell you."

Ye Chunqiu realized that he had lost his composure, but he didn't expect that he had just seen his annoying side for his wife.

Ye Chunqiu looked at Wang Jingchu, how could he not know the exquisiteness of his wife? He put the worries aside in advance, smiled gently and said, "I hope to hear it carefully."

Wang Jingchu said cutely: "Who do you think the most effective way to combat smuggling merchants?"
