Chapter 286 Hangzhou City Affairs
Zhang San first beckoned everyone back to the courtyard where Guan Lin lived, and after everything was done, Wu Decai complained that he couldn't manage such a big shipyard, Zhang San listened with a smile, and when Wu Decai finished speaking, Zhang San said: "Since you can't manage it, then continue to manage it, just exercise and exercise." Pen, fun, pavilion www. biqugeγ infoβ
Wu Decai originally listened to the first half of Zhang San's sentence and thought that he could finally be freed, but he didn't expect the second half of the sentence to let him continue to care, and he was suddenly discouraged, and looked at Zhang San who wanted to say it but didn't dare to say it.
Zhang San sighed and said: "You have to exercise more, think more when you encounter problems, watch more, ask more, I can't stay here all the time, you need to take care of all the business in Jiangnan for me in the future, if you haven't grown, I will transfer you back to Tokyo and let your fourth brother come over!" β
Seeing that Wu Decai was reprimanded by himself, he didn't dare to say anything, Zhang San was afraid that his words would be too heavy, so he continued to explain: "You can't learn!" Don't live up to Uncle Wu's expectations, so be it, I'll let Gongsun Sheng Dao Chang assist you for a while, if you don't know, you can ask him, or you can come and ask me. β
Wu Decai looked up at Zhang San, looked at Gongsun Sheng and said, "I know, third brother, I will work hard!" β
Zhang San nodded and said: "You are mainly responsible for the storefront of the wharf now, as well as the shipyard side, you find a trustworthy brother to be the shopkeeper of the storefront of the wharf, and listen to the opinions of the master master here at the shipyard, now the shipyard only needs to build the ship well." That's it, you know. β
Wu Decai nodded: "Got it." β
Zhang San looked at the others and said, "Zhou Feng, you recommend a competent brother to take over your work, and you are happy and ready to go to sea." There's something for you over there. β
The two looked at each other, got up from their chairs and said, "Yes." β
Zhang San asked, "How is the situation of the Guan family recently?" β
Shi Qian smiled: "Third brother, the Guan family has been lively recently, the boss of the Guan family came back, first made a big fuss at home, and finally the two sides almost fought, and finally the Guan boss proposed to split up the family and completely break with the Guan family." β
Zhang San asked strangely: "Didn't Boss Guan report to the official?" β
Shi Qian said with a smile: "Boss Guan has a good relationship with a priest surnamed Jiang in Hangzhou Prefecture, the boss of the Guan family just came back, and he originally wanted to drag the Jiang Boss to deliver a message to the prefect, but the Jiang Boss persuaded him to settle the matter, he has no evidence to prove that the Zhang family colluded with the bandits, and there is no evidence to prove that Guan Lao Er embezzled his property." β
Zhang San thought about it, this is indeed the case, the Zhang family robbed his goods, no one saw it, and he had no evidence of the Zhang family's collusion with the bandits, Boss Guan once wanted to ask Zhang San for the Huang family brothers, but Zhang San refused, not to mention the hidden treasure, just leaking the location of Sea Shark Island was not Zhang San's willing.
Zhang San asked, "What are the Guan family and Boss Guan doing now?" β
Shi Qian looked at Zhou Feng, he was only responsible for listening to confidential information, as for the daily monitoring, Zhou Feng was doing it, Zhou Feng said: "Third brother, the boss of the Guan family, Guan Zheng made a fuss in the family, and finally Guan Lao Er and the clan returned some of his property, he sold the goods again, returned the rented boat, and there were still four boats in his hand, more than ten shops, and a homestead along the side. β
Shi Qian came up and said: "This boss still has tens of thousands of dollars in his hands now. β
Zhang Sanyi calculated: "No, isn't it still worth 80,000 yuan in foreign debts, how did it become so many now?" β
Shi Qian explained: "Third brother, 80,000 guan is mainly the value of the leased ship, and after the ship is repaid, there will be no natural debt, and the debt before Guan Zheng comes back has already asked for his own money, so Guan Zheng got back the goods equal to how much he sold is his own." β
Zhang San thought that this was indeed the truth, the matter of the Guan family came to an end, and Zhang San asked Shi Qian: "Did Guan Zheng leak the matter of Weiyuan Dart Bureau?" Did the Zhang family investigate the Weiyuan Dart Bureau? β
Shi Qian said: "Guan Zheng said to the outside world that it was a pirate fire, and his crew didn't know the specific situation here, and Guan Lin was sent back to the capital by Guan Zheng to continue studying. So for a while, the Zhang family also thought that it was the pirate fire and Guan Zheng who was able to escape. β
Zhang San nodded and said, "That's good, you all go and get busy." β
Everyone began to walk out, Zhang San turned his head to see Pang Qiuxia still standing there, Zhang San asked, "Do you have anything else?" β
Pang Qiuxia said: "I want to go with my sister-in-law to see my brother. β
Zhang San then remembered that Pang Wanchun still had his wife, thought about it and said, "Then when Zhou Feng and Lehe go, you can go together." You can stay there for a while, and if you want to make a home there. β
When Pang Qiuxia heard this, she smiled and said, "Thank you, third brother." β
Zhang San sat in the room and thought about it, the stall was too big, and he didn't know where to start, and the business matters were handed over to Wu Decai to defend the city, and it was difficult to open up, although Qian Jin was capable, but Tokyo was really inseparable from him.
Abandon other ideas first, there must be at least a shipbuilding dock on the island, a blacksmith shop, and a doctor, and as for other supporting industries such as shipbuilding, even if Zhang San kids people up, he can't start a job without raw materials.
But the premise of all this is that Zhang San's control over the island should be further strengthened, just like sugar production, Zhang San is obviously sure to make it, but the current island really can't be produced, and it is not good that Zhang San has just started production, and someone has fled.
These current pirate warships are just some sea ships of one or two thousand stones, which are being repaired and used. Zhang San wanted to change the boat for them, but he could only build it himself on Sea Shark Island.
Zhang San asked Gan Xingtai why Huang Lao Er didn't change the big ship of the Guan family, and Gan Xingtai told him that the bigger the pirate's ship, the better, the bigger the ship, the more people are needed, and as the saying goes, it is not good to turn around when the ship is small.
Zhang San now has a shipyard in his hand, as long as the ship sample is made, he can produce a new ship of 2,000 stone in four months, but the new ship is too eye-catching, and the pirates will use it within a few days of being built, even a pig can guess that you have a leg with the pirate.
Zhang San planned to recruit a group of shipwrights from a city near Hangzhou, sign a ten-year contract, and then use the boats to pull them to the island, buy various materials from Hangzhou after the timber was ready, and start construction of three ships at the same time.
In fact, a boat of one or two thousand stones, generally can be built with a slipway, Zhang San feels that digging well will not suffer, and it can be slowly expanded in the future.
As a native of Hangzhou, Lao Chen knows too many people about him, so Zhang San's favorite is Lao Mo, but Zhang San is also afraid of his character, if he doesn't build it for you, or deliberately builds a broken boat for you, it will be troublesome.
The work of the master craftsman is to fix the keel, master the blanking, and fix the mast, all three of which require a wealth of experience, and the layman and Ben can't see whether they do it or not, even the average shipwright knows little about it.
Lao Mo is still very grateful to Zhang San for saving his family from Yangzhou, and he is also very serious and responsible at work, but Zhang San does not guarantee that if he is trapped on the island, he will not be in a hurry with him.
