A Blessed Wife At Home Chapter 2305: Ban
Although she likes farming, she doesn’t try to steal other people’s things.
These big families dedicated their lands to her, but they were afraid that she would rob them, so they took the initiative to please them.
But, is she this kind of person? Absolutely not!
Qiao Xuan focuses more on Hangzhou Bay.
Although the Great Qin court explicitly prohibited shipping, this ban was issued by the court decades ago. Although the lockdown has not been lifted, after private maritime trade flourished, the court did not take any measures to prohibit or suppress it.
The people are trying to test it step by step. Especially in the past ten years, overseas trade has been quite prosperous. Every year, several fleets formed by big families go out to sea.
Sea trade is extremely profitable, but at the same time it is also very risky and takes a long time. Without the support of the imperial court, the private sector will only be able to fight on a small scale.
Furthermore, any big family that can develop to a certain level understands the principle of shooting the first bird, and pays special attention to adhering to the golden mean.
The profits earned by going overseas are so huge, there are many jealous people, and they dare not expand the scale without scruples, otherwise they may cause disaster one day.
In particular, the imperial court's ban has never been lifted, which means that the imperial court can legitimately confiscate all these at any time.
Even if it is a precaution in case it is confiscated one day, we do not dare to expand the scale at will.
Otherwise, the losses would be too heavy!
Because of this, Daqin's sea trade has never developed, and even the docks in Hangzhou Bay look a bit dilapidated and desolate.
Qiao Xuan decided to show off her skills.
She told Shao Yunduan about this matter. She had been craving for Hangzhou Bay for a long time. When Shao Yunduan first became independent, the final retreat they considered was overseas, which required ships and ports. If it were really possible, it wouldn't be possible without several years of secret preparation.
But now, Hangzhou Bay is right in front of us!
Of course Qiao Xuan couldn't bear to miss such a great opportunity.
Besides, developing maritime trade can also bring back more money and materials, so why not?
Shao Yunduan was very moved by what she said. In any case, there was no harm in the matter, so he discussed it with Zhang Wenshu, Jia Heming, Zheng Sangge and others.
It doesn't matter to Jia Heming and Zheng Sangge, they can do this anyway. Since the adults think it is good, then it should be good.
Zhang Wenshu and a group of local officials in Jiangnan were all excited.
Although Zhang Wenshu is from Henan~IndoMTL.com~, he is concerned about national affairs and has always paid attention to the matter of sea trade. He fully hopes that if he becomes an official in the future, he will definitely find an opportunity to report this matter to the court and request Re-open sea ban.
But he also knew that this was just a daydream of his!
How could he, a small scholar who had failed to pass the Jinshi exam three times and had to become a teacher, have any chance of becoming an official in the court? Just wishful thinking!
His son is only average in academics, and the students he teaches are at best just like him. It will be impossible for him to accomplish this in his lifetime...
Who knew that the opportunity would come so unexpectedly!
The world is in chaos and the current situation is turbulent. For him, this is such a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity! Not only did he become an official, he was also entrusted with important responsibilities by the adults. Unexpectedly, before he dared to mention it and had no time to think about it in detail, the adults mentioned it first!
So, this is probably God’s will.
