Tianjin Zhang's Shipyard.

Because the fleet to the Golden Continent brought back 30 million taels of gold and silver, the entire Ming Dynasty was agitated, and the magnates, wealthy merchants, gentry, and wealthy families from all over the Ming Dynasty gathered in the Beijing-Tianjin area, all wanting to participate in this wave of wealth.

Naturally, the business of many shipyards in Tianjin has also become extremely hot, and a large number of people come to inspect and negotiate the purchase of ships every day.

The Zhang brothers don't want to go back to the capital now, and even their queen sister hasn't been to see it for a while, and the food in the palace suddenly doesn't smell good, and the two brothers are nesting in their own Zhang shipyard and selling ships here.

At this time, the Zhang brothers were accompanying Cheng Bo'an, Zhu Benduan, Feng Xiang, and Ye Li to privately inspect their own shipyards, for these four people, with the energy of the Zhang brothers, they naturally found out clearly at once, knowing that these four people are the real big buyers, as long as these four people can be finalized, there will definitely be a big order falling on their heads.

The shipyard of the Zhang brothers is the second largest shipyard in Tianjin, the first must be the Tianjin shipyard, and now the Tianjin shipyard has opened branches, the scale is very large, employing more than 30,000 people, and can launch hundreds of large ships and hundreds of small boats every month.

Zhang's Shipyard, although it is far from the Tianjin Shipyard, has thousands of workers, and can launch dozens of ships of various types every month, and has been able to build fishing boats, whaling ships and Daifuku ships.

"Several, this is the big ship that our Zhang's shipyard can build for ocean-going at present, this ship is exactly the same as the ship used to go to the Golden Continent this time, they are all Dafu ships, with large size, deep draft, and strong ocean-going ability, it is definitely the best choice to go to the Golden Continent."

Shou Ning Hou Zhang Yanling pointed to a Dafu ship in the dock that was almost completed.

At the beginning, the two brothers felt that the ships of the Tianjin Shipyard were too expensive, so they opened the shipyard, learned from the Tianjin Shipyard, and also spent a high price to invite some shipbuilding masters from all over the Ming Dynasty, including the master who used to specialize in benefiting the ship, and finally built this lucky ship.

Hearing Shou Ning Hou Zhang Yanling's words, Cheng Bo'an, Zhu Benduan, Feng Xiang and Ye Li hurriedly looked over, the Dafu ship in front of them was huge, and the appearance was indeed the same as the Dafu ship they saw in Tianjin Port, there was no difference.

"This ship can be the same as the ship they use?"

Cheng Boan thought for a while and asked.

"Keep assured, it's all the same Dafu ship, there is no difference, the length and width, the internal structure, etc. are all the same, there is absolutely no problem to go to the Golden Continent."

Shou Ning waited for Zhang Yanling to pat his chest and said.

"How much silver does this ship cost?"

Ye Li nodded slightly, thought for a while and asked.

"It used to sell 80,000 taels of silver, and now it sells 100,000 taels of silver, which is also a matter of no choice, there are too many people who have bought ships recently, and this ship that can go to the ocean is too sought-after, Tianjin Shipyard has increased its price, and we naturally follow the price increase."

"However, if you order enough ships, up to five, I can sell you ninety-five thousand, and if it reaches ten, I can sell you ninety-thousand."

Shou Ning waited for Zhang Yanling to think about it and quoted.

"It's too expensive, this ship is just some wood, and it costs 100,000 taels of silver to sell for a piece, it's too expensive, it's too expensive~"

When Zhu Benduan heard this, he shook his head again and again and said.

"Expensive?"

"You may not know how expensive the ships in the Tianjin Shipyard are, the same kind of lucky ship, the Tianjin Shipyard will sell it for 250,000 taels of silver, and I will only sell it for 100,000 taels of silver, which is less than half of their price."

When Zhang Heling, who was a member of Jianchangbo on the side, heard this, he immediately widened his eyes unhappily and said.

"But I've also heard that although the ships of this Tianjin shipyard are expensive, the quality of their ships is very good, and as for the ships of other shipyards, it is said that there will be some problems more or less."

Feng Xiang nodded, and then also expressed his doubts.

He went to the Tianjin Shipyard and also visited the Tianjin Shipyard, which is not comparable to the Tianjin Shipyard at all.

Tianjin Shipyard is very clean, everything is neatly visited, all kinds of accessories, parts processing workshops, assembly docks, etc., everything is managed in an orderly manner and is very standardized.

What's more, the shipbuilding masters, employees, etc. of Tianjin Shipyard all give people a very good feeling, and their mental outlook is completely different.

On the other hand, here in Zhang's Shipyard, the management of all aspects is completely inadequate, and the shipyard is in chaos, with all kinds of wood chips, waste and so on everywhere.

In addition, these employees of Zhang's shipyard, Feng Xiang can't see much smile on their bodies, let alone the kind of confidence and pride in the employees of Tianjin Shipyard, and he feels very huge.

"Quality?"

"Tianjin Shipyard is also blowing out, in fact, this ship is the same, and there is no difference, what difference can there be in quality."

"With the boats built in our shipyards, you can catch fish, you can hunt whales, and you can make money on the ocean."

"There are more than one or two people who have bought my boat, and so far I have never heard of anyone saying that my boat is not good, but those who have made money continue to come and place orders with me, buy more boats and earn more silver."

Speaking of quality, Shou Ning Hou Zhang Yanling smiled without hesitation, in his opinion, shipbuilding is the same thing, and the ships of Tianjin Shipyard are just like that, there is nothing remarkable.

That is, they themselves boast about how good their quality is, but they just sell it for a higher price.

Hearing Zhang Yanling's words, Cheng Bo'an and Zhu Benduan also nodded slightly.

"If we buy 10 at once, how long will it take to build them?"

Cheng Bo'an and a few people glanced at each other, and they all nodded slightly, and he immediately understood what the others meant.

"Ten at once?"

When Jianchang Bo Zhang Heling heard this, he immediately laughed and frowned, this is a big deal, ten big ships at one time, a big business of one million taels of silver, if this list is taken down, it will definitely make a lot of money, a special profit.

"If you buy ten at once, we can build it for you in five months."

Zhang Yanling thought for a while and said.

"Five months?"

"How long?"

When Ye Li heard this, he immediately frowned and said.

"Five months is a very short time, I know you are in a hurry to go to the Golden Continent to make a lot of money, but it is winter, and it is not suitable to go to the Golden Continent at all, because it is close to the Arctic Circle here in the Pacific region, there is ice floe, and it is too dangerous to go now."

"So if you want to go to the Golden Continent, you have to wait until the spring of next year picks up, which is already a few months, and by that time the ship has been built, you can just set off for the Golden Continent, and during this time you can also recruit crews, train crews, prepare supplies, etc."

"After all, the Golden Continent is thousands of miles away, this road is dangerous, and anything can happen, so the more fully prepared the better, and the preparation time for a few months is still required."

"The crew members who go to the Golden Continent must be carefully selected, and they must also undergo special training and training, and it is best to be able to go to the Wa Kingdom here to train and adapt to the sea."

"So all kinds of things can be done, and it won't work in a few months."

"In addition, this shipbuilding really doesn't make this shape out of wood, it takes a long time to prepare the wood alone, and not all wood can be used to build a ship."

"Not to mention anything else, just the wood used to make the keel, it is not ordinary wood, and the price is extremely expensive, which is why the ship is sold so expensive."

Shou Ning waited for Zhang Yanling to say very patiently.

In order to make money, the Zhang brothers also spent a lot of effort, and also studied the route to the Golden Continent, and also consulted some crew members.

The Zhang brothers themselves are also forming a fleet to go to the Golden Continent, and they have carefully conducted some research and summed up some experiences.

"I see~"

"I didn't expect there to be so much knowledge here."

When Cheng Bo'an heard this, he was slightly dumbfounded, he didn't expect that there were so many doorways to go to the Golden Continent, and he could only set off when the weather warmed up, and this preparation would take several months to prepare, and it seemed that this silver might not be so easy to earn.

"Of course~"

"If this Golden Continent were so easy to get to, wouldn't everyone go and earn silver?"

Zhang Yanling nodded and said.

"Master Hou, uncle, this matter is too big, we need to go back and discuss it carefully before deciding whether to place an order."

Cheng Bo'an nodded, then thought about it and said, it is definitely impossible to place an order immediately after coming to see it once, he still needs to go back and discuss and discuss with everyone.

It didn't seem to be so easy to get to the Golden Continent, and their preparations seemed to be too rushed, and it was better to find someone professional to take care of it.

At the same time, this ship also needs to go to several more shipyards to take a look, carefully compare, and then decide whether to place an order with the shipyard of the Zhang brothers.

"It's okay, it's okay~"

"With such a large list, we really have to be cautious and not rush things."

"However, there are some things I will say in the front, at present, there are many people who are looking for us to buy boats, and our production is also produced in accordance with the order of orders, and the first to come naturally produces first, so you still have to try to hurry up."

Zhang Yanling said with a smile on his face, he has decided to eat this order.
