Chapter 369: The Great Harvest

Du Dalei said: "Lao Cui, when the time comes, we can use paper money to buy these grains, and use some useless paper to exchange for a large amount of grain, do you think this kind of business is cost-effective?" ”

Cui Zhaorong shook his head: "That's not what I said, paper money can be exchanged for a lot of food, but after the farmer gets the paper money, although these paper money are not real money, silver and copper money, they can still buy things?" ”

Na Zhe smiled: "Lao Cui, the scissors of industry and agriculture are poor, you don't understand." As long as we produce a large number of industrial products, such as ironware, soap, soap, lamp oil, etc., and exchange them with the peasants, we will take advantage of them. ”

Cui Zhaorong asked puzzledly: "I don't understand what you say, but our exchange with the farmer is a fair deal?" What will we take advantage of? ”

Du Dalei explained: "Lao Cui, the output of industrial products is huge, and the pricing power is in our hands. The peasants simply have no way to bargain with us.

For example, the soap we produce may cost three cents a piece. Our supermarket on Qishan Island can sell 50 yuan a piece, and the low price is set because we take care of our own people. ”

If you take it to Jinling City to sell, Qi Jiuniang said that it can be sold for the highest money! Therefore, these industrial products can only be manufactured by us, and we have the pricing power. We can sell as much as we want. Do the peasants have a way to fight us? ”

Cui Zhaorong suddenly realized: "I understand, anyone can grow grain, as long as it is not in a famine year, the price will not be high." The things we produce can be sold for a lot of money in Jinling, Mingzhou, and Hangzhou. That's what 'poor industrial and agricultural scissors' is. ”

An Dalang answered: "It turns out that there are so many twists and turns here!" You two are really a belly of flowers. But as long as you can make money for everyone, it's a good thing, hahaha! ”

Zhao Zizhong said: "Okay, time is pressing, let's act overnight." Na Zhe, your kid is now at home, you should come out and do more work.

Cui Daoshu is not here, you go to the Ministry of Commerce and Trade and take over all his work. A deputy minister of commerce and trade, who mixes in the school all day long, what is it like.

You hand over all the things in the school to Fu Hongyu, and Fu Hongyu will be the principal in the future. Let Wanqiu and Fang Juniang be the vice principals to assist Fu Hongyu in her work. ”

Du Da Lei was happy: "Boss, you are really discerning, my little red jade is much more capable than the little master, you really have a vision." ”

Zhao Zi slapped him in the face: "Hurry up and get out, immediately go to the escort team to start mobilizing, let the escort team start to deliver supplies to the dock overnight, and start loading the ship tomorrow morning." ”

Du Dalei immediately ran away, and An Dalang saw that Na Zhe still wanted to protest, so he hurriedly covered his mouth. Dragged him out.

Boris said to Zhao Zizhong: "Boss, I want Hu Yidao and the three of them to accompany Buhe and them, because we can't drag them out." ”

Zhao Zi laughed heavily: "These three boys have also suffered a lot, so be it, you tell them that although the labor reform has come to an end, if they make mistakes again, I will double the punishment for them." Let them remember it longer! ”

-------------------- -------------------- -----------------

The next morning, the whole island began to get busy, and Du Dalei and the cattle of the escort team worked hard to carry supplies to the ship.

An Dalang took a part of the guards to various camps to publicize the policy of immigrants to go to the camp, and encouraged these refugees to sign up for the exile.

Boris took the staff of the staff and began to make a plan, repeatedly calculate the personnel and materials needed, and find out the background of the escort so that he could deploy the troops.

Na Zhe reluctantly went to work in the Ministry of Commerce and Trade, and was soon overwhelmed by those complicated things.

Zhao Zizhong commanded in the center, and Qishan Island began to burst out with amazing energy, and soon prepared a large amount of supplies and food.

Four days later, An Dalang and Du Dalei set out with six warships and ten merchant ships, accompanied by more than 500 guards and more than 1,000 displaced people. There is also a lot of food and supplies.

Zhao Zizhong ordered the personnel of the Ministry of Commerce and Trade, led by Na Zhe, to go to Mingzhou to purchase materials and food. They carried more than 200,000 pieces of seized money and prepared to carry out a large-scale sweeping operation in Minnesota Prefecture.

The various workshops on Qishan Island are working overtime to produce various products, preparing to supply the base of Liuqiu, and transporting some high-end products to Jinling and Hangzhou to make huge profits.

Time passed in a hurry, and ten days passed.

On the morning of October 19, the fleet that had gone to Liuqiu returned.

Guo Jintao got off the ship and soon found Zhao Zizhong in the ironmaking workshop.

He said eagerly: "Mr. Zhao, everything is going well. We arrived at Liuqiu and brought our men and supplies ashore safely. An Dalang and Du Dalei cleaned up some restless guys and killed a few homeless people who stole, injured people, and robbed, which immediately shocked the original residents of Penghu and the new homeless.

Now that the base is in good order, everyone is desperately building wooden houses, clearing the wasteland and drying salt, and it is estimated that a large amount of sea salt will soon be produced. ”

Zhao Zi nodded emphatically and said, "Lao Guo, you have worked hard." Let's go and rest first. Tomorrow you will continue to load the ship with supplies, and then set off as soon as possible, and then go back to Liuqiu to transport a batch of people and supplies. ”

Guo Jintao agreed to come down and go find a place to sleep, he is obviously very tired these days, and even his eye circles are dark.

Zhao Zizhong stood in front of the blast furnace and thought silently.

Now the sea salt production of Qishan Island and Daishan West Island has reached its peak, and it is more than enough to supply the entire Nantang market. If you add in the newly developed production of sea salt, there will be a surplus.

It is necessary to develop new markets, but where to sell such a huge amount of sea salt? He thought about it for a long time, but still didn't come up with a good solution.

At this time, a guard ran over and said loudly, "Report to Mr. Zhao, Mr. Wei and Minister Cui are back." They have disembarked and are heading to the camp. ”

Zhao Zizhong was overjoyed and immediately ran in the direction of the camp.

Soon he ran back to the camp, and after entering the camp, he did not pause, and ran straight to the small building where Mrs. Cui lived.

When he arrived in front of Xiaolou, he saw the dog and the apricot playing there.

Jiang Wuniang and Shen stood next to them, looking at the two children with a smile.

Zhao Zizhong panted and ran to the two of them, and Jiang Wuniang hurriedly took out a piece of linen cloth and handed it to him.

"Wipe it, look at the sweat you run this end."

Zhao Zizhong took it over, and instead of wiping the sweat, he squatted down, stretched out his arms, and hugged Xing'er and the dog.

He smiled and said, "You two little guys, you haven't seen you for a few days, do you miss me?" ”

The dog said loudly: "If there is sugar, my sister and I will miss you, but if there is no sugar, we don't want to." ”

Zhao Zizhong laughed: "You stinky boy, you are a sugar kiss all day long, it's not good to eat too much sugar, you will break your teeth." If you grow up and your teeth are rotten, see if you can still marry your mother-in-law. ”

The dog pouted and said, "I don't want to marry my mother-in-law, so I'll be with my mother and sister." It's too troublesome to marry a mother-in-law, if you are like Uncle Du, you have to kneel on the washboard, I don't want to. ”

Several adults couldn't help laughing, Shen covered his mouth and laughed so much that he couldn't straighten his waist, Jiang Wuniang hurriedly pulled the dog out of Zhao Zizhong's arms, and then said:

"Hurry up and go in, Mr. Wei and Mr. Cui are inside, talking to the old lady."

Zhao Zi nodded emphatically, stood up, and pulled Xing'er into the hall on the first floor.

Entering the gate, he saw the old lady sitting on the sofa with Cui Ying'er in her arms, and Wei Hongye and Cui Daoshu sitting opposite, they were laughing and talking about something.

Zhao Zizhong pulled Xing'er, walked over quickly, and saluted the old lady with a smile.

"The old lady is well, Zhao Zizhong greets you."

Old Madam Cui raised her head, "It's Zi again, sit down and talk." Come to me the apricots, and I'll bring you cakes to eat. ”

Wei Hongye and Cui Daoshu both stood up, and Cui Ying'er also stood up and greeted Zhao Zizhong.

Zhao Zizhong returned the salute with a smile, and then carefully looked at Wei Hongye and Cui Daoshu. Cui Daoshu did not change, but Wei Hongye became dark and thin, and the skin on his face was much rougher.

"Lao Wei, you have worked hard, take a good rest for a few days."

* Ye couldn't hide the excitement in his heart, and punched Zhao Zizhong in the chest.

"Lao Zhao, this time we have gained a lot, found the Nanshan iron mine, and reached a joint development of iron ore with the Southern Tang Dynasty. We're going to have a big fight, haha! ”

Zhao Zizhong was also very happy: "You and Lao Qi have made great contributions, and we will vigorously develop Liuqiu next year, and build a coal and iron complex, a military-industrial complex, and a machinery manufacturing plant there." We want to change this era with industrialization! ”

Cui Ying'er flashed her big eyes and asked, "Big brother, these things you said seem to be very powerful, but I can't understand them?" ”

Old Mrs. Cui said while feeding Xing'er osmanthus cake: "Ying'er, you don't interfere in men's affairs." Hurry up and marry Hongye, hurry up and give birth to a few children, I'll show you, so that my mother can have something to do. ”

Cui Ying'er pouted: "Mother, why did you mention this matter again?" I'm still young, and I don't want to have a baby so soon. ”

Zhao Zi saw that the mother and daughter had signs of quarreling again, so he hurriedly said:

"Old lady, please rest assured, in more than a month, our brother will handle the marriage of Lao Wei and Ying'er. I, Lao Wei, Da Lei, and Na Zhe will get married together, and the brothers will have a good time together. Then I can't help it, hahaha! ”

Cui Ying'er was a little embarrassed: "Big brother, you are disrespectful to the old!" I'll ignore you anymore and won't talk to you anymore. ”

Cui Ying'er ran to the stairs, "Kick and kick", ran up to the second floor in a few steps, rushed into her bedroom, and closed the door hard.
