The next day.

Wang Youzhen had eaten in the morning, and immediately rushed to the warehouse near the water conservancy factory to find the second uncle Wang Yanren.

Wang Yanren counted the harvest this time yesterday, counted all night, and did not sleep at dawn.

I still worked all night counting the harvest until it was time to eat lunch.

Only then did Wang Yanren clean up all the harvest, rubbed his temples, and began to organize all the harvest in a ledger.

Wang Youzhen came to the warehouse and waited in the hall until lunch, then he saw the second uncle come out of the warehouse.

Although Wang Yanren didn't sleep all night, the expression on his face was not a trace of tiredness, and he was still very energetic: "Da'er, the first few times when Fuyan Mountain Xiangma and Heidao Haikou ransacked the rich households in the countryside, they were like hungry wolves. ”

"The harvest this time is so much, so much that the second uncle is a little frightened."

After Wang Yanren finished saying this, he handed the mulberry paper ledger in his hand to Wang Youzhen.

Wang Youzhen took the account book and couldn't wait to look at it.

The first is the ship at the small wharf, and it is also the biggest source of Wang Youzhen's initiative to bring down the green hand shopkeeper this time.

First, there is one small Fu ship and 27 flat sand boats.

When Wang Youzhen saw the ship on the first page, his heart felt like he had put down a boulder, and he could finally rest assured.

He also had the biggest worry this time, that is, after the shopkeeper of the green hand fled back to the house, he arranged for someone to burn the small fortune boat.

With the degree of ruthlessness in the hands of the green hands, it is very likely that a fish will be broken in one shot and two scattered.

Even if he burned the small fortune boat with his own hands, he didn't leave it to Wang Youzhen.

Fortunately, the green hand shopkeeper still has the psychology of keeping Qingshan in the fear of no firewood, and he did not take a small fortune boat to temporarily leave the small pier at the mouth of the glue.

I took the gold and silver to the county yamen, borrowed the officers and soldiers from the archives of the military room, and exterminated all the people brought by Wang Youzhen as if they were going to kill the rogues.

If this really happened, Wang Youzhen seemed to have a lot of family business, and he would be easily destroyed by the officers and soldiers.

After all, they were the officers and soldiers in the hands of the Changyi County Soldiers, and they couldn't defeat the officers and soldiers of the Thousand Households, and it was still easy to exterminate the men and horses in the hands of Wang Youzhen.

Wang Youzhen couldn't help but nodded, and hurriedly looked down again.

It's not enough to have a small fortune boat, but also to have a boatman who can operate a small fortune boat.

Controlling a small fan is secondary, the most important thing is that these people are familiar with the route.

In this there is no navigation, and there is no satellite positioning in Daming.

It's possible to get lost walking on land, let alone the vast expanse of the sea.

There is also a dirt road on land, and there are some iconic things that make it easy to remember the location.

For example, mountains, forests, villages, and so on.

It's not the same on the sea, where it's all sea level.

There are almost no mountain forests that are used to identify where you are.

This is where the value of boatmen comes in, and these boatmen who are familiar with the route can easily reach their destination.

Wang Youzhen's main target this time is the green hand, and the people he killed this time are also the green hands.

Things were just as Wang Youzhen expected, and there were indeed many names recorded in the mulberry paper ledger.

There were exactly twenty boatmen in total, and none of the boatmen under the Qingshou shopkeeper became Wang Youzhen's shipwrights.

Wang Yanren sat next to him and drank tea to relieve the fatigue of the night.

He couldn't help but smile when he saw his nephew turn over to the boatman this night.

What Wang Yanren paid the most attention to this time was a small lucky boat and twenty boatmen.

Wang Yanren was in charge of the money bag of the Mao Society, and in the past, he was selling foreign goods in a shop.

He knew better than anyone else how much money a maritime merchant could make.

So I've been thinking about shipping the spindles and cotton cloth in my hand out to sea and selling them in other places.

If you want to go to sea, you need a lucky ship that can withstand the wind and waves, and a boatman who is familiar with the route.

Wang Yanren, who had been waiting for news at home yesterday, had been nervously waiting for the news of the small fortune boat.

His nephew Wang Youzhen really lived up to his expectations, not only captured a small lucky boat, but also took the twenty shipwrights on it to become theirs.

Wang Youzhen turned the page and continued to look down.

Porcelain, spices, cotton cloth, and other gold and silver are soft and soft, and they are worth more than 3,000 taels of silver.

Wang Youzhen couldn't help but wonder when he saw this, the green hand shopkeeper was one of the top three wealthy households in the entire Yuer Town.

It stands to reason that there is a lot more family business than Caokou.

But the number of this slut is much less than that of Caokou.

Could it be that it was hidden in advance and not found?

Wang Youzhen continued to flip with doubts, after all, there were still a few pages in the mulberry paper ledger.

If this is the last page, there is a big problem.

But this is not the last page, indicating that there are other hidden truths.

Wang Youzhen opened the remaining pages of the mulberry paper ledger and understood what was going on.

It turned out that the Qingshou shopkeeper had replaced most of the business in his hands with grain, and was ready to sell the grain to the Jin merchants.

After all, the most lucrative business in the Laizhou Bay area is to sell grain to Jin merchants.

The Jin merchants then transported the grain to Liaodong and sold it to the Jiannu, who was desperately short of grain.

Wang Youzhen saw the amount of grain written on the last page, as much as 30,000 stone of grain.

According to the current market price, these 30,000 stone of grain can be sold for nearly 40,000 taels of silver.

This is very reasonable, and it is also in line with the family background of the green hand shopkeeper.

Wang Youzhen couldn't help laughing, on the one hand, because they were also short of food, they suddenly had such a large amount of food, and they finally solved the urgent need.

On the other hand, these grains were to be transported to Liaodong and sold to Jiannu.

Wang Youzhen can be regarded as saving the country this time, not to mention that he can starve to death thousands of slaves in one winter.

Wang Youzhen handed the mulberry paper ledger in his hand to the second uncle, looking at the second uncle's face full of anticipation.

Wang Youzhen smiled and said what the second uncle wanted to hear the most: "All the grain is hoarded and kept for us to recruit and buy horses by ourselves." ”

"As for the small fortune boat, as well as the boatmen on the pontoon, I will leave them all to the second uncle."

When Wang Yanren heard this sentence, which he had been waiting for for a long time, his face became more energetic, much more energetic than drinking aphrodisiac tonic wine: "Haha, let's rest assured." ”

"With this small fortune ship, don't worry about cotton in the future."

"Second uncle, let's go to the small wharf at the mouth of the glue sea now, and arrange for these small lucky boats to go to sea."

Speaking of this, Wang Yanren paused and continued: "In the future, the small wharf where the glue enters the sea will have thirty or forty young and strong salts for a long time. ”

"The second uncle suggested that all this grain be transported back to the warehouse at the small wharf and handed over to your grandfather to manage the grain."

Wang Youzhen thought about it, nodded and said, "Just do what the second uncle said." ”
