Chapter 902: Twenty Docks

Who knows how much Zheng Derong is implicated in Youzhou, relying on Zheng Derong's ability to separate some projects shows that Youzhou does not have ordinary trust in Zheng Derong.

Xiao Mo made a wise choice, although he also wanted to order his own merchant ship, and now it may have to wait.

Zheng Derong seemed to have seen the result from Xiao Miao's expression.

"Haha, it's a good thing to be able to undertake the Zheng family's order, and I'm already looking forward to the dockyard now."

"Don't worry, the dock is not in a hurry, I can tell you that the first batch of orders after the dock is completed are from Youzhou, and I can tell you that the dock may serve Youzhou in the next five years after it is completed, according to my estimate, it may take longer."

Xiao Miao's eyes lit up, and he knew that it was not for nothing that Zheng Derong could make such a big business, if he didn't agree, I was afraid that he wouldn't know the inside information.

Having said that the shipyard will be the key to development in the next few years, and he is already wondering whether to invest in another dock.

The next five years will be orders from Youzhou, which means that the shipyard will be produced in the next five years, and as long as the orders are completed, it will be money.

And Zheng Derong means that the fleet that Youzhou needs may be very large, and how many ships can be built in the next five or ten years.

"What does the Zheng family mean, how many ships can be built in ten years?"

Xiao Mo really doesn't know anything about shipbuilding, and even if he learns about the introduction of related projects, he is also a layman.

"How much time it will take depends on how many docks can be built in the end, and one thing is for sure, the construction period of the new docks will be shortened to about eight months." Zheng Derong said.

Xiao Mo has heard that it should not take a year or two to build a big ship, if there is a special customization, it is possible to use two or three years, this new shipyard takes eight months, and the construction period is really fast enough.

He is more concerned about the shortening of the construction period, which means that the dockyard can be settled as soon as possible, which is a good thing for investors.

The Zheng family master knew very well that the big ships built in eight months were all new ships, and if they wanted to complete it in a traditional dockyard, it would take at least three years to build.

More time is spent on shaping and air drying, and the main construction work is on the keel and splicing work.

The new shipyards are made of large steam-powered car spacing, and all the timber processed can be processed in batches, and each board has a fixed specification.

Because of this, the shipbuilding speed of the new shipyard is so fast, and the experience comes all from the Youzhou dock, and the premise of Li De's approval for the construction of the dock is that the technical problems of the dock and the ship have matured.

Now it is to put these technologies into production, that is, Li De is ready to burn a wave of money, the purpose is to develop the ocean fleet to make more money and get more rights.

What Xiao Mo didn't know was that the new big ships were larger than the traditional merchant ships, and they were used to build excellent ships in the shortest possible time.

A few days later, Xiao Mo left, and Zheng Derong began to receive merchants from Youzhou.

To Zheng Derong's surprise, these businessmen from Youzhou really came in groups, and they were going to build ten docks as soon as they opened their mouths.

What kind of scale is this twenty docks, according to the order needs of Youzhou, Zheng Derong is worried about Li De, building twenty large ships a year, according to the budget, it will cost at least three million yuan to build ships a year.

Whether Youzhou's taxes can be supported or not, Zheng Derong has been thinking about this issue for a period of time after that. 69 school bags

Spending millions of dollars a year is really nothing for Youzhou, and most of them may be able to complete a few percent of the tax with the income of the half-city inn.

What's more, the taxes provided by many Youzhou workshops every year have already exceeded an astonishing value, but Zheng Derong really doesn't know that some of his worries are judged according to the situation during the Sui period.

Zheng Derong is so worried that he doesn't want Youzhou to face a financial crisis, after all, the development of Youzhou is closely related to the interests of his Zheng family.

At the same time, he was worried that after the completion of the twenty docks, if Youzhou could not come up with so much money for shipbuilding, then they businessmen would have the opportunity to build ships first.

For Zheng Derong, he really wanted that the twenty large merchant ships launched in a year belonged to the Zheng family.

His idea has also been imagined in the minds of many businessmen, especially those who have come from Youzhou to invest, and they know very well how much interest there is in shipping.

According to the good information on the construction materials given by the Youzhou City Guard, it has been shown that the new merchant ships are capable of long-distance sailing, which provides them with important information.

The future of ocean freight will not be limited to offshore transport.

Some of the businessmen who have invested are speculative, and the projects that Youzhou attaches importance to can allow them to return more benefits, which has been reflected in the historical investment projects.

No one has thought about the future of twenty docks, and once the ships are not needed so much, when the docks have no orders, how will their investment be recouped.

Merchants may invest blindly, but it doesn't mean that they won't settle accounts, especially the control of the business development situation, the merchants from Youzhou talk very thoroughly when they communicate with the merchants in the caravan.

Given the lack of ships, we can tell if we count the number of ships that are expected to be built in the future, and we know that they will definitely not lose money in the next twenty years.

If the dockyard can't be operated, they can give it up, and at that time, they will already make enough money.

It's so kind to business people.

No one can stop it.

Zheng Derong received Youzhou merchants, and during the merchants' stay, he personally accompanied them and gained a lot of experience after communicating with them.

Zheng Derong felt that he still needed to learn to do business, and heard that the chamber of commerce in Youzhou often organizes business exchange meetings, which can allow businessmen to go further in the industry.

What impressed Zheng Derong the most was that the businessmen who came to invest in the dock investigated the local and surrounding conditions during the trip after negotiating the investment in the dock.

Surprisingly, many businessmen have invested in many workshops in the local area, and according to these businessmen, it is convenient to guard such a large maritime port.

The products of the workshop can be transported by sea to the north and south, and then there is the workshop here, the investment cost is lower, and the profit of increasing the circulation of goods will be considerable.

Businessmen are good at seizing opportunities, and what shocked the Zheng family was that many workshops produced good building materials, cement workshops, stone workshops, and brick walls.

Not only that, but they have recruited workers to form a construction team in the local area, and a lot of land has been allocated for investment and construction.

After Zheng Derong learned about these things, he found that the Zheng family's time spent several years on shipping.
