Chapter 200, the famine is not terrible
At this time, Li Dongyang, Zhou Jing, and Zhang Mao were not eating at all, as if they hadn't heard Liu Jin's words at all, and the eyes of the three of them were all looking at the sea fish piled up like a hill on the dock.
"More than 120,000 catties~"
Zhou Jing didn't care too much about the whole person, and came directly to the place where the fish were released, looking at the mountains of sea fish in front of him, and then looking at the other eight docks, the same as this one in front of him, baskets of sea fish were piled up into hills, and at the same time, the entire Tianjin port began to emit a strong fishy smell.
Zhang Mao hurried to another wharf, and he wanted to go over to see in person how many marine fish were caught by the professional fishing boats manufactured by the Tianjin shipyard.
"I've never seen so many fish."
Li Dongyang couldn't help but sigh when he looked at this mountain of fish, seeing this huge sea fish with his own eyes, he now completely believed it, and the last trace of doubt in his heart was all dispelled.
A boat catches more than 120,000 catties of marine fish, and the sum of the marine fish caught by these nine boats at one time is naturally more than one million catties, and the millions of catties of marine fish are stacked on the port wharf, which is very spectacular.
"Today's harvest was not bad."
Liu Jin is very clear about the amount of fish caught every day, because it is related to whether Tianjin can continue to operate normally, if there are fewer fish caught that day, Liu Jin has to worry that there are more and more people who are crowded to Tianjin, and there will be more and more marine fish consumed every day in the future.
"The sea has been banned for so long, and there are too many fish in this sea fish, but if you continue to fish like this every day, will you fish all the time?"
"Do you want to implement a fishing moratorium in the future?"
Liu Jin is thinking about the issue of sustainable development, and the experience and lessons of future generations must be absorbed, and the ultimate consequences of exhausting and fishing are very serious.
But soon Liu Jin smiled again and shook his head, now it is just beginning to talk about what fishing moratorium, I don't know how many fish are in the ocean in this era, and the fishing technology has not yet developed, so you can rest assured that you can fish.
"Boy, will you sell me five fishing boats?"
Just when Liu Jin was thinking, Zhang Mao had already returned, and this time he came back in a hurry to Liu Jin's side, and said to Liu Jin with a smile.
Obviously, he already knew the value of this fishing boat, and the fishing boat of 20,000 taels actually said that he would buy five in one breath, which was simply a lot of money.
"Gong Zhang, I can only sell two ships to you at most, this shipbuilding is not so easy, sell five ships to you at one time, I will not be enough myself."
When Liu Jin heard this, he smiled and replied.
"Two is not enough, at least three, so let's sell three fishing boats to me, and I will be a matchmaker for you here in the capital when I go back, and keep it for you to marry a beautiful lady like flowers and jade."
Zhang Mao saw that Liu Jin only promised to sell him two fishing boats, so he was immediately anxious, and his eyes rolled, and he actually used a beauty trick.
"Zhang Gong, three ships are three, but this is a matchmaker."
When Liu Jin heard this, he immediately shook his head and said.
"Haha, this man should marry and the woman should get married, what is there to be ashamed of, don't worry, I'll leave this matter to me."
When Zhang Mao saw Liu Jin's appearance, he immediately laughed happily, patted his chest and said.
"Uh... Then I would like to thank Gong Zhang first. ”
The other party was so enthusiastic that Liu Jin didn't know how to reply for a while, so he could only smile and thank him.
"A few boats can catch more than a million catties of sea fish in a day, if there are dozens of boats, then we don't have to worry about the famine in the three northern provinces at all, if there are hundreds, thousands of fishing boats, then my people can eat meat at once."
Li Dongyang on the side was still immersed in the joy of the harvest in front of him, and his mind was full of fish.
"In fact, there is nothing terrible about this famine, especially this time there is a famine in Shanxi, Shandong, and Beizhili provinces."
Liu Jin heard Li Dongyang's words, thought about it and said.
"Go on."
When Li Dongyang heard this, he came back to his senses, and hurriedly Liu Jin continued.
"These three provinces, Beizhili and Shandong are all close to the sea, especially Shandong can be said to be surrounded by the sea on three sides, as long as there are fishing boats, we can transport boats of marine fish very quickly."
"As for Shanxi, this side is far away from the sea, and if the fish is not dried and pickled, there will definitely be no way to transport it over long distances, so it is not suitable to use sea fish for disaster relief, which is one of the three places that really needs to use food for disaster relief."
"In the three affected provinces, we can distinguish them according to different situations, and then adopt different relief measures."
Liu Jin pondered, sorted out his language, and said slowly.
"Although the southern part of Shanxi, Beizhili and Shandong provinces were affected, it was only a poor harvest, and it was not a situation where the harvest was lost."
"Moreover, these places are close to the southern region, and they can quickly get food relief from the southern region, and no matter how bad they are, they can go to the southern region to escape the famine, so the situation is not serious."
"The really serious ones are the areas in the north of these three provinces, which are too cold, the grain harvest is gone, and there is a real grain harvest that needs disaster relief. Among them, the most serious situation is naturally the Yongping Mansion of Beizhili, Tianjin, and the capital of Beijing, so the focus of disaster relief should be in this area. ”
With Liu Jin's explanation, Li Dongyang, Zhou Jing, and Zhang Mao nodded slightly after thinking about it.
The situation is indeed as Liu Jin said, the most serious famine is in the area of Yongping Mansion in Beizhili, Tianjin, and Beijing, as well as in the northwest of Shanxi, where the disaster is the most serious.
"After analyzing these clearly, we can adopt targeted strategies when providing disaster relief, and the areas of Beijing, Tianjin, and Yongping Mansion, because they are close to the sea or close to the sea, we can use sea fish for disaster relief, and we don't need too much food."
"The situation is the same here in Shandong, by the sea, as long as there are boats, we can transport boatloads of marine fish to various places for disaster relief."
"The place where food needs to be used for disaster relief is Shanxi, which is too far from the sea and inconvenient for transportation, so it is necessary to use grain for disaster relief, so the grain in the hands of the imperial court can be concentrated and transported to Shanxi."
"As for the area of Yongping Mansion, Tianjin, and Beijing, most of the victims have begun to gather in the capital and Tianjin, and this gathering is very conducive to our disaster relief, especially after the official road between the capital and Tianjin is repaired with cement roads."
"Transporting fish by horse-drawn cart can be transported in half a day for more than 100 kilometers, and disaster relief is not a problem at all."
"So as long as we sort all this out, this famine is not terrible, and it can be easily defeated."
Liu Jin expressed his thoughts about this famine, which is also the reason why Liu Jin is confident.
"I really don't know what's in your kid's head, after listening to your analysis, I'm not worried about the famine at all now."
After listening to this, Zhou Jing couldn't help but let out a long sigh and said.
"I see, listening to your words is better than reading a book for ten years!"
After listening to this, Li Dongyang thought carefully in his mind, and soon couldn't help but smile and shook his head and said: "I have read books all my life and learned the way of governing the country all my life, and I don't even understand such a simple truth, I am really ashamed~ ashamed." ”
"Li Gong is modest, boy, I'm just talking nonsense, if you really ask me to do things, I don't understand anything."
Liu Jin hurriedly shook his head and said.
"Bell~Bell~"
At this moment, there was another bell from the lighthouse, which made everyone here in the port confused, the ship had already returned, how could it be remembered again.
"A ship has returned to port~ A ship has returned to port, it seems that a ship to North Korea has returned~"
Soon, on the lighthouse, the person in charge of the lookout spoke loudly with a big iron horn.
"The North Korean ship is back?"
"It's a good time to come back."
When Liu Jin heard this, he immediately came to his senses.
