Wang Changmu pointed in the direction of the east and said a countermeasure that made everyone present feel reasonable: "The small pier where the glue enters the sea." ”

Wang Youzhen and Wang Laipin couldn't help but nod when they heard the small wharf where the glue entered the sea.

The owner behind the small wharf at the mouth of the sea is the green shopkeeper of Yu'er Town.

As early as when the grandfather of the green hand shopkeeper was young, the glue estuary was nothing more than a barren saline-alkali land.

Later, the grandfather who was in charge of the shopkeeper used all kinds of tricks to grab all the large areas of saline-alkali land nearby.

Soon a small wharf was built, with which a lot of money was made over the years.

There are two main aspects of the money they earn: one is to collect the money from passing ships, and the other is to have a small lucky ship of their own.

With the convenience of a small wharf, some maritime trading is done through this small fortune ship.

This blue-handed shopkeeper, both in terms of status and strength, is much higher than Sun Baohu and others who died tragically in Wang Youzhen's calculations in the past.

This is why Wang Yanren said a sentence and did not dare to say this sentence in the past.

In the past, a local wealthy family like Sun Baohu could easily pinch the Wang family to death, let alone the green hand shopkeeper who mastered the glue into the sea.

Today's Wang family is completely different from more than half a year ago, both the status on the surface and the strength in their hands have undergone earth-shaking changes.

It was precisely with strength that Wang Changmu dared to say this.

After Wang Changmu finished talking about his opinion on this matter, he glanced at his eldest son Wang Youzhen, who was sitting on the official hat chair and did not speak: "Zhen'er, tell me what you think." ”

Wang Youzhen said approvingly: "I support my father's countermeasures. ”

"In fact, even if the father doesn't say it, the child will bring it up."

"As long as we can bring down the green hand shopkeeper, we will not only solve the problem of buying and selling cotton and gunpowder, but also get a small fortune ship."

Speaking of the small fortune boat, Wang Youzhen and Wang Laipin couldn't help but smile.

It was a fortune ship that could sail on the sea, not to mention that the fortune ship could sell for a lot of silver, but I couldn't have imagined that I could own a fortune ship before.

Besides, if there is no certain relationship, you can't buy a sought-after sea ship like Fuchuan.

It's okay for Wang Laipin, but he thinks that the Wang family can have a small fortune boat, and he feels like a glorious ancestor, and his face is bright.

Wang Yanren is different, as an elegant man who often buys and sells foreign goods, a small fortune ship is too important for him.

In the past, when he was still in the shop, one of the ship's stewards yelled at him.

In his life, he never thought that he would be here to discuss how to get a small fortune ship.

In addition, with this small fortune ship, Wang Yanren was able to start a maritime business with the connections he had accumulated before.

Wang Youzhen paused, and when he saw the red expressions on the faces of the second uncle Wang Yan and the third uncle Wang Laipin, he couldn't help but smile and said: "The water-powered spinning mill and the water-powered factory can't be on the table. ”

"As long as we don't have enough strength for a day, these industrial machinery can't leak out for a day."

"The small fortune boat is different, it can be displayed generously, so that our Wang family can be regarded as a glorious ancestor." After saying a few heart-stirring words, Wang Youzhen was about to say more in-depth words: "Whether it is a large trade in cotton cloth and gunpowder, or owning a small fortune ship." ”

"The biggest gain of the green hand shopkeeper is to be able to tightly control the entrance of the glue."

"In this way, the two hydroelectric plants are really foolproof."

When Wang Changmu heard this, he couldn't help but nodded approvingly, obviously extremely satisfied that Wang Youzhen could have such an in-depth view. The last point that Wang Youzhen said is also what Wang Changmu values the most.

The two water conservancy factories have no more than twenty or thirty sets of hydraulic machinery.

The amount of silver that can be earned every year is as much as tens of thousands of taels, and when it comes to such a big profit, anyone will be red and excited when they see it.

As long as they have a good grasp of the mouth of the glue, they can have a tight control over the passing ships, and they can completely eliminate the possibility of the two water conservancy factories being discovered.

When the eldest son Wang Youzhen finished speaking his opinion, Wang Changmu continued to add: "Let's say so much is just a harvest. ”

"I'm not here today to talk about this, it's to talk about how we can bring down the green hand shopkeeper."

"Bringing down the green hand shopkeeper needs to collect information, not to mention it for the time being, what we need to take precautions in advance today is to finalize who will be in charge of the small wharf at the mouth of the glue."

Wang Laipin subconsciously glanced at the second brother Wang Yanren, since this small wharf with glue into the sea is used for trading, then it is only suitable for me to let the second brother Wang Yanren be in charge of the small wharf.

But the eldest brother has already said that he is discussing a candidate, and Wang Lai's appointment is a little uncertain.

Wang Changmu also didn't say his opinion, this time he looked at his eldest son Wang Youzhen, who was sitting there thinking about this matter: "Zhen'er, tell me what you think." ”

Wang Youzhen picked up the hand-knitted teapot again and poured a cup of tea for his father, second uncle, and third uncle at one time.

He poured himself another cup, and after a few sips of tea, he said, "Grandpa." ”

Grandfather?

When Wang Laipin heard that he wanted his father to take charge of the small wharf, he thought to himself, why wasn't he the second brother Wang Yanren, who was proficient in business?

Wang Laipin sighed lightly, revealing his incomprehension, but Wang Changmu and Wang Youzhen couldn't help laughing, and drank a sip of tea in the coarse porcelain teacup with a smile.

If the matter discussed today is changed to how to attack the city and fight, it will be Wang Changmu and Wang Yanren who will sigh lightly.

Wang Youzhen also knew that the third uncle Wang Lai was not very proficient in the calculation of the fly camp dog, and even disdainful of these villains, after all, the other party was a straightforward martial artist.

Wang Youzhen didn't say it explicitly, and pointed to the cotton cloth on his body.

Wang Laipin was able to become the first martial champion of the Ming Dynasty in the future, not only because he could use a hundred-pound broadsword, but also because his brain was much smarter than ordinary people.

Seeing his nephew Wang Youzhen pointing to his cotton right coat, he suddenly realized.

In their eyes, the second brother Wang Yan is the general manager of the two water conservancy factories, and he has more than 20,000 taels of silver in a year.

But in the eyes of outsiders, he is not the eldest son of the Wang family, just a low-status servant.

Old Man Wang is different, now he is a grain chief.

The grain chief is half a small official, as long as he can get involved with the word official, the businessmen who come and go will respect the old man for half a point.

Fortunately, they have the identity of this grain chief, otherwise they are just a small ancestral hall in the eyes of outsiders, where would they have the qualifications to contact those wealthy businessmen.
