"Shopkeeper Wang, the whaling fleet is coming back soon, do you want to open your eyes?" A wealthy merchant of Goryeo suggested to Wangcheng.

"A fleet of whals? Who's handwriting? ”

"Which one else could it be? Your home, of course? ”

"How did I not know?" Wang Cheng thought for a moment, and there didn't seem to be a fleet of whales in the fishing branch of the East China Sea Company.

"Oh, I forgot that you just came, the Tokai Company bought 3 large ships last year to hunt whales in the Sea of Whales (the ancient name of the Sea of Japan), and only came back once every six months. The last time I returned to Hong Kong, it caused a sensation, killing 7 whales at a time, and the meat obtained from the whales alone was sold for 70,000 yuan, and those bones were sold to the newly opened bone china factory, fertilizer factory, and glue factory on the island for 30,000 yuan, not to mention the expensive fish oil and fish fat, which were not sold to oil merchants from all over the country. Even the huge whale liver and intestines have been carried away, and I wonder what the use of those internal organs is?"

"Of course you don't know, the teacher said that whale internal organs are the best raw materials for making many medicinal materials, and the intestinal wax on the inner wall of the sperm whale's intestines can make Longyanxiang, which is hard to buy," Wang Cheng thought silently.

"I can't imagine that whaling is so profitable! The fleet in the past two years has also made a lot of profits, and it seems that it is going to expand its scale. Wang Cheng said with a sigh.

"Yes, Shopkeeper Wang, you are also a young man in Jeju Island, and you have only become a senior shopkeeper of the Port Service Company, a subsidiary of Donghae Company, in your early twenties. In a few years, you can be promoted to the headquarters to be a partner with shares, right? The Goryeo merchant said enviously.

"I borrowed the words of Boss Park. Boss Park's salt business is also thriving. ”

"Where, where!" Boss Park hurriedly shook his head and said that this was not the case, "That is, eating under the hands of Donghai Company." If it weren't for the good time last year, I could buy 100,000 catties of high-grade refined salt every year to make a fortune. ”

"Every year, I have to ask the king's shopkeeper to help, and I can give priority to loading and unloading the goods, so as not to get the goods damp."

"That's no problem, our aim is to serve the guests well, next year's expansion of the new port terminal will also trouble Boss Park to transport some thick and solid wood, you also know the wood on the island, not very successful." I will start preparing raw materials next month, and I hope that Boss Park can make a fortune together. ”

Boss Park thought to himself that Wang Cheng, a young man, had leaked secrets to himself, and wanted to buy wood by himself to give himself a chance to make a fortune. Do you want to give some benefits and rebates yourself?

"As long as the project can be completed in advance with quality and quantity, and I can also achieve the assessment and get promoted and raised early, I have to rely on Boss Park's help."

Boss Park knows that the rules of Chenji Group are big, if you find out that you bribed and gave gifts to get the supply bidding information, you will inevitably not be able to eat and go around, or when you sign the contract, let more profits to the Wang shopkeeper to support the performance, and make a promising Junjie will always not suffer.

Walking and walking, the two of them walked from the office area to the dock, "Back to port, back to port, the whaling fleet has returned to port." The dock staff, who had identified the fleet by the flag, had already cleaned up the reserved docks that had been prepared in advance, and hundreds of butchers armed with knives and axes who specialized in dismantling whales cheered and rushed to the whale carcasses that had been lowered from the cranes.

Behind the scene of flesh and blood is the growth of a golden industrial chain, whale skin can be tanned, whale fins can be made into shark fins, whale meat can be made into pickled and smoked canned meat sausages, whale baleen can be used for musical instruments and bras, whale fat can be used for high-grade lubricating oil, candles, soap, whale offal can be used for medicine, whale bones can be used to make phosphate fertilizers and handicrafts. As an important raw material industry before the industrial age, its profits were at least ten times that of fishing.

There are no major whaling fisheries around Jeju Island, but there is a strong industrial processing capacity, and many fishing villages in northern and western Japan and eastern Goryeo are dumping outlets for whaling fleets, buying large, low-value, and unkeep-free meat for deep processing and selling to inland areas where protein intake is lacking. What was left on board was all good stuff except meat. After the only three whales on the dock that had been killed for less than two days on the return trip were divided, the butchers hurriedly pushed carts to transport the meat back to their workshops for processing and salting.

Wang Cheng, who watched the crew and sailors disembarking from the ship carrying barrels full of whale oil and preliminary nitrated whale skins, couldn't help but laugh, mentally calculating the scale of the future. The industry kills 200 whales a year to feed at least 50,000 people, including downstream industries. Jeju Island, with its population of only 400,000 and the number of people living in the interior of the island, including 100,000 people who fled to the mountains, is actually 140,000 and the total population of Jeju Island is very desolate and spread out on an area of more than 1,800 square kilometers. Jeju City alone has a population of more than 30,000. Within a few years, Jeju Island's economy will be on a par with whaling and entrepot trade.

At that time, I will become the first five people to catch up with the agricultural output value of the industrial output value on the territory, and it is impossible for the four junior brothers to compete with me for the "Xishan Autumn Ji Map" of Wang Xu, who was taken out by the teacher in the teacher's room as a prize.

A month later, Wang Cheng received an order from the headquarters and was promoted to assistant general manager of the Donghai Company of Chenji Group, taking full responsibility for the integration of the company's fishing and whaling-related industries.

"It seems that this kid Wang Cheng will be able to open up the situation soon, I don't know how Xiang Chao and the others are mixed up surrounded by nomads?" After Li Ji issued the order to Wang Cheng, he lit a special cigar and couldn't help but think of the other apprentices.
