Chapter 349: Zhao Guangning's Energy (First Update)
After leaving the county government of Xiangshan County, Zhao Guangning was sweating profusely.
Although the promise that Ning Xiu gave him was tempting, it was not so easy to get.
It can be seen that this Baili Hou is very ambitious, and he still has to put more thought into this part of Nanyang.
Judging from the resources currently in hand, trading in the South Seas is nothing more than finding some coral, spices, and pearls to sell back to Daming, but the idea of the county is obviously more than that. He seems to be more interested in the artillery guns of the Tessians.
In this case, the Spaniards there ...
Thinking of this, Zhao Guangning couldn't help but shudder.
Although the Spaniards and the Portuguese have now formed the United Kingdom, the blood feud between them is not so easy to resolve.
Zhao Guangning has served the Portuguese in the trenches for many years, and has long been labeled as a Portuguese. Now, if you fight with the Spaniards, you will definitely offend the Portuguese, and it will be unpleasant to both sides.
Although Zhao Guangning was interested in the huge profits of Nanyang, he did not want to offend Governor Silva. This dilemma is just too bad.
Zhao Guangning shook his head and walked towards Huixianfang in the east of the city.
......
......
In the Jisheng rice shop, the shopkeeper hummed a little song while looking at the account books on the weekend.
Last night, her concubine used eighteen kinds of martial arts, and the comfort of his service made people ecstatic.
Now I think of the concubine's water snake waist and buttocks, and I swallow saliva on the weekend.
"Damn, what a seductive slut."
There was a lewd laugh over the weekend. If he hadn't had to look at the cabinet, he really wanted to go back and do it again right away.
"Shopkeeper, Mr. Zhao is here!"
The little guy Liu Monkey shouted, and the lewd laughter of the weekend came to an abrupt end, and his face was immediately covered with gloomy clouds.
Damn, why is this great god here?
Although I felt very unhappy, I had to get up and go out quickly on the weekend. Otherwise, if this great god feels that he has been treated slowly, he will have to suffer.
"Oops, what kind of wind blew Mr. Zhao here."
When he arrived in front of the hall, the shopkeeper Zhou had already put on a professional smile, which was like a spring breeze.
"Shopkeeper Zhou, don't come unharmed."
Zhao Guangning didn't smile, which made the weekend very embarrassing.
"Hehe, thanks to Mr. Zhao's blessing, the contemptible can still eat."
Shopkeeper Zhou stretched out his right arm and made a gesture of invitation, and Zhao Guangning walked towards the inner room without taking a polite step.
After sitting down, Shopkeeper Zhou hurriedly beckoned Liu Monkey to show Zhao Guangning tea, and Zhao Guangning pushed his hand and said: "No need, Zhao is here for one thing, and he will leave after explaining it clearly." ”
"Hehe, you said, I will do the things assigned by Mr. Zhao."
"I want to recruit seafarers who can go to the South Seas, and the more the better."
Shopkeeper Zhou smiled: "Seafarer? That's easy to say. But Mr. Zhao has enough seafarers there, this time it's a favor for a friend, right? ”
Zhao Guangning glared at him fiercely.
"Oh, look at my mouth, it should be hit, it should be hit!"
Shopkeeper Zhou knew that he had said the wrong thing, so he hurriedly made up for it.
Zhao Guangning waved his hand unhappily: "That's it, this matter should be fast, ten days, Zhao will give you ten days." ”
Shopkeeper Zhou was stunned and said, "Ten days? That's too short, right? ”
Zhao Guangning snorted coldly and said, "It's just ten days, and if there is more Zhao, you won't wait." What's the matter, shopkeeper Zhou has a problem here? ”
"No, of course not."
Weekend hurriedly said: "Mr. Zhao, how much do you want?" ”
Zhao Guangning nodded.
"Got it, I'll do it as soon as possible."
"In addition, I want to order a pinnacle sand boat, and if there is a blessed boat, I will also want it."
Zhao Guangning's words completely aroused the interest of the shopkeeper Zhou.
His eyes revealed the light of a beast, and he swallowed his saliva and said: "Mr. Zhao really asked the right person, there are sand boats, and there are lucky boats, and the price given to Mr. Zhao is still the same." ”
"I will pay a deposit of 10% first, and pay the full amount after the inspection."
Zhao Guangning said the payment method very strongly, and he didn't say anything on the weekend.
This has always been the way of cooperation between him and Zhao Guangning, and there has never been a problem, so he can still rest assured.
"Mr. Zhao, do you want to prepare the goods for you? Silk, tea, lacquerware..."
Before Shopkeeper Zhou finished speaking, Zhao Guangning pushed his hand and said, "No need." I just ran for my friend, and Zhao didn't know what my friend wanted to sell, and he wouldn't ask. ”
Shopkeeper Zhou nodded again and again.
"Okay, I've explained everything, so I won't bother Shopkeeper Zhou to make a fortune. Leave! ”
Zhao Guangning arched his hand at the shopkeeper Zhou and got up to leave.
Shopkeeper Zhou also hurriedly got up and sent Zhao Guangning out of the shop with a smiling face.
"This Mr. Zhao is really a weirdo."
Shopkeeper Zhou said with emotion.
But as long as you can help him make money, what does it matter if the weirdos are not weirdos?
......
......
Zhao Guangning was very satisfied with the group of seafarers recruited by Zhou's shopkeeper. There are more than 600 people in total, all of whom are veteran seafarers who often go to sea, and they are very experienced.
As for the sand boats, he ordered one, and the fortune boats were two. It was a bonus, and it wasn't planned.
Zhao Guangning handed over the ship and crew to Ning Xiu, made a settlement, and transferred the silver to Zhou's shopkeeper. Both of them made some money, and they were very satisfied.
"It seems that this Zhao Guangning does have some skills."
Ning Xiu muttered.
He didn't expect Zhao Guangning to complete this matter in less than ten days, and even bought two large fortune boats. With the addition of the newly purchased sharp-bottomed sand ship, Ning Xiu now has a total of six sea ships, which is barely a fleet.
It's just that he doesn't plan to let all six ships go to sea to the South Seas.
The first time is to touch a line to come out.
He was going to send three lucky ships to the sea, and the rest would dock on Wuzhushan Island.
This change also set off a ripple effect.
Ning Xiu decided to send most of the township soldiers to Wuzhushan Island in advance. One is to defend the island, and the other is to let them take care of the remaining ships.
These township soldiers have been trained for less than a month, and their combat effectiveness is naturally not high, but they can still be defended by relying on the island.
After all, Li Danbu suffered heavy losses, and only a few dozen people escaped. Even if he wanted revenge, it wouldn't be so fast.
Besides, these villagers can also be trained on the island, and there is more room for operation.
After all, there are many idle people in Xiangshan County, and if someone wants to take advantage of the opportunity to Hei Ningxiu, it is still easy to catch the handle.
It's different on Wuzhushan Island.
No one knows about this place except for a few pirates, and there are only Ning Xiu's people on the island, which is very safe.
Training here is the best option.
Ning Xiu is not a military general, and the training can only be in the name of the township soldiers, so it is better to be cautious.
"My lord, how many people are left in Xiangshan County?"
Qi Wen asked with some hesitation.
"Just leave three hundred people to pretend, and send the rest to Wuzhushan Island!"
