The waves on the shore were turbulent, lapping on the shore, the sea breeze was howling, blowing Xiaochuan's messy hair, looking at the patriarchs who were still a little chaotic, they looked at the coast and said, "I want to build a dock here, as well as a sailor!" ”

Looking at the half-moon-shaped bay, it happened to be a sheltered deep-water port, and the location of one of the more than a dozen ports in Shandong in later generations was just the right place to establish a port, and then the port was a cash cow.

"What! Are you crazy! "All the patriarchs were shocked, they were terrified, they didn't know what Xiaochuan meant, port? How much manpower and material resources are needed to build this thing, and this young man is ashamed to say that he wants to build a port here!

Jiang Ming, the most serious old patriarch, smacked his lips and looked at Xiao Chuan, his eyes were full of sneers, and said, "General Qin, are you joking?" Port, hehe, do you know how much manpower and material resources it takes to build a port, just the wharf you know how much manpower it takes! ”

All the patriarchs were disdainful in their hearts, and Yu Dongyang also looked up at Xiao Chuan, with worry in his eyes, he didn't know why Xiao Chuan suddenly said that he wanted to build a port, such a whimsical thing, so don't these families think that you are just a person who can brag! In this way, the situation that originally wanted him to befriend these patriarchs was not broken, and he smiled: "Patriarch Xiaochuan is joking. ”

"No, my lords, I will build this dock, and you want to continue to be barbarian when you go to sea in the future, being robbed by Zheng Zhilong, and being robbed by Liu Xiang" Xiao Chuan said, after he finished speaking, these people were all embarrassed, these were all pirates on the sea, especially Zheng Zhilong, who could monopolize the existence of maritime trade at that time.

At that time, it was recorded that "where the sea is not allowed to be under the banner of the Zheng family, can not come and go, each ship is included in 2,000 gold, and the annual income is tens of millions, so as to enrich the enemy country," he collected protection fees at sea, more than twice the tax revenue of the Ming Dynasty, the sea power group is huge, it can be said that it is unimaginable, if it is not for his own convulsions for some reason, he had to surrender to the Manchus, and was directly arrested and killed by the Manchus, and most of the forces were lost in vain, and the result is still unknown.

The settlement is that the remaining forces still occupy Taiwan and defeat the Netherlands, and their maritime power is unimaginably huge, and the power on the road will soon reach the strongest time in history.

All the patriarchs changed color in an instant, the Zheng family, who didn't know, who didn't know his Zheng family Lingqi, his sea protection fee, all showed a painful expression, obviously did not pay less protection money, they were all surprised in their hearts, how could the young man in front of this kind of thing know.

Yu Dongyang had a stunned expression, where had he heard of Zheng Zhilong's maritime empire, and his face was strange.

Jiang Ming looked at Xiao Chuan, with a hint of doubt on his face, he didn't expect that the strong man on this road would actually know about this empire on the sea, and said: "How can the general compete with the Zheng clan, how can he resist the Zheng fleet" This is a strong man who defeated the entire Japanese naval division with the main force of the Ming Dynasty naval division in the Battle of Luliang, he didn't believe that the young man in front of him had the ability to compete!

"How can the general contend with the Zheng family" These patriarchs all said with strange faces, they are all disdainful, naval battles and land battles are two different things, no matter how powerful you are on the road, you will become a king in the water, how strong Cao Cao was back then, it was not a fiasco in the water war.

"No, everyone, I will make you believe that in the future, the Zheng Group will be just a paper tiger," Xiao Chuan said, the purpose of this is to achieve the goal of making friends with these families, and said: "I know that you don't believe General Ben's words, think that I am talking in vain, think that I am deceiving you, but have you ever thought about it, when I first came to Shunchang Fort, I could not bring four hundred refugees, and now, there are thousands of elite soldiers!" The Woko have been crushed head-on by me! ”

All the patriarchs were silent, it was almost impossible to defeat the Zheng family in a naval battle, but the young man in front of him had already created a miracle, a miracle of cultivating the army, and the miracle of the sailor was hard to guarantee that it would not be established, they suddenly had this feeling, for the young man in front of him, anything could be done! Especially one who has already accomplished a miracle.

Yu Dongyang also said: "I, the governor of Haizhou, will fully support General Qin to establish a water division," he said, so as to increase his political achievements and protect the territory and the people. ”

All the patriarchs were silent, Jiang Ming was silent, if others said this to him, he would definitely scoff, how could it be possible to defeat the Zheng family in a water battle, but what about a teenager in front of him? The miracle of having built a land army, and he is the son of the Qin family of the Ming Dynasty, the clear stream of the court has led him, and the emperor has also heard that he has relied on the Qin family.

Could it be that the emperor is behind the support, he broke out in a cold sweat, the ban on the sea in the DPRK is a national policy, and it has long been a practice for these coastal families to do business without paying taxes, it is not the royal family behind the support, ready to sweep away all kinds of greasy, he is thoughtful, thought of this, and saw Xiao Chuan's sworn appearance, this young man is obviously not a person who talks in the vernacular, he has so many years of experience here, he is very likely to have the support of the royal family behind him, after all, he was once a person who almost became a colt with the emperor, who can say clearly. This is the only way! Either the boy in front of him is crazy, so wouldn't taking refuge in the boy be the same as taking refuge behind him. . . .

"Okay, General Qin, what do you say, what the old man will do" Jiang Ming said, his tone was full of respect and no longer the ridicule just now, he understood the identity of the young man in front of him, or the identity he misunderstood, this coincidence has already made him understand that Xiao Chuan's oath made him mistakenly think that he was the support of the royal family, so it was a wise move to stand behind Xiao Chuan.

The patriarchs were all shocked, they didn't believe it at first, but among them, Jiang Ming was famous for his old scheming, he agreed with the old man, and they immediately agreed.

"Okay, after the establishment of my port, you will have to go to my wharf for unloading," Xiaochuan said, the port city can only develop with throughput, and there will be various cranes and other mechanical mechanisms to build in the future, which can attract those cargo ships to dock.

If a port is really built, they can really benefit from it and reduce their various losses.

Yu Dongyang on the side was sluggish, he didn't understand that this group of businessmen was so arrogant on weekdays, but now they bowed their heads to Xiaochuan one by one! One by one, thinking of their dialogue, he also admired in his heart, Zheng Zhilong's power on the sea should be eliminated, and he had a broad vision and understood the disadvantages of the sea ban, if he wanted the country to be strong, he had to communicate with other countries. And the Ming Dynasty forbidden sea is different from the Qing Dynasty, it is not allowed to fish in the open sea to do business, so you go to sea, who knows in the far sea and near the sea, so to maintain contact with foreign countries, it is a fake forbidden sea, and the Ming Dynasty has been learning Western technology from beginning to end, from the Fran machine to the red-coated cannon, and the Qing Dynasty began to learn when others entered the door.

Xiao Chuan talked to these people again, and talked about many barbarians, and the head of the talk was the Tao, and he told all the things about those European countries that he had heard and heard in his previous life.

Those families are all maritime merchant families, they have come into contact with all kinds of barbarians, they have heard some things about those European countries, the same as what Xiao Chuan said, and there are many things they have not heard, so they feel that Xiao Chuan is extraordinary.

Jiang Ming even touched his beard and smiled: "Okay, good, I never thought that the Qin family would be so knowledgeable and well-informed, and he would understand the things of barbarians so thoroughly, and he is amazing!" ”

All the patriarchs praised them, and Xiao Chuan continued to tease them, through Wang Heng's words that he had told him in advance, what he said was misty, to mislead them, anyway, in the future, he will really be able to establish a powerful sailor with the system, there is no doubt about it.

After a while, a man in black suddenly appeared and whispered in Xiao Chuan's ear, Xiao Chuan stretched his brows and said, "Everyone, let's stop here today, there are still things to deal with below!" ”

"What?" All the patriarchs felt that they still hadn't listened enough, and Xiao Chuan said: "There is a rebellion in the city, I want to go back to the city to execute the rebels"

All the patriarchs want to follow and go together, they are all curious, people with such an iron fist can have people rebel, they are all tired, they are all curious, and they are ready to see who has eaten the bear's heart and leopard gall.

On the side, Mrs. Chu helped Xiao Chuan cut the cloak, frowned, and said, "Why did you take it off again, be careful of catching a cold!" ”

"Nothing!" Xiao Chuan took off his cloak and got into the carriage, followed by all the patriarchs.

Xiao Chuan thought of the construction of the navy in the future, no, it should be a sailor, Zheng Zhilong's sea power is beyond imagination, he surrendered to the Manchu Qing Dynasty by himself, resulting in more than half of the power, his son almost took down Nanjing by relying on the reduced power, and beat the Dutch in Taiwan, insisted on holding on to Taiwan for so many years, and now his power is even more unimaginable, and his annual protection fee has exceeded the tax of the Ming Dynasty.

With so much money, how many ships he can build, how many troops he can train, not to mention, he can buy weapons directly from foreigners, at that time, those coastal families all bought weapons from barbarians, and there was a special bath cannon factory established by Europeans in Macao, whose firepower definitely far exceeded that of the Ming Dynasty and the Manchu Qing Dynasty, and it was definitely because of the later defeat that he was covered up by his originally strong strength.

The wharf has been built, and the initial is to collect all kinds of loading and unloading, docking fees, and other kinds of landing, all of which require money, which can be said to be blood capital in the short term, and unimaginable profits in the long term.

It's just Zheng Zhilong in the later stage, so he can only rely on the system, or the first step must be to take down the nest of the Japanese robbers, the craftsmen who build ships, and all kinds of talents.

Only then can you stand up to this behemoth of the sea. It's not just about the system, it's about the indigenous forces, the various forces, the people of all kinds.
