Chapter 44: Running Cloud Guam (Ask for Collection, Ask for Recommendation!) ）

The construction of Yunguam is proceeding in an orderly manner.

The construction speed of Yunguam Island is much faster than He Tengxiao expected, and the piers on the island have been renovated and renovated, and you can see two lighthouses rising from the east coast of Yunguam Island.

"Master Lu, can Zhang Baihu be on the island?"

Lu Fan was reinforcing the pier with a few people who looked like people, and when He Tengxiao asked this, he explained a few words to a young man who looked like an apprentice on the side, dropped the work in his hand, and saluted He Tengxiao: "If you go back to the Thousand Households, Zhang Baihu has been busy building docks on the East Coast these days, and if the Thousand Households want to patrol Zhang Baihu to go to the East Coast, they will definitely be able to find it." ”

He Tengxiao nodded, and took a few relatives to go down to the east coast of Yunguan Island to find Zhang Yuyang.

Since the sea ice had not yet melted, it was not possible to fill in the rocks to build a pier immediately, but several piles of stones were piled up on the shore, and a dozen stonemasons waved their chisels to chisel the stones into strips, and the stones that had been chiseled into strips were neatly laid aside.

At the time of the upright lunch, the craftsmen and men who took turns to rest sat on the ground and ate the rice with relish.

Zhang Yuyang mixed in a group of people to eat, he was wearing the plain brown short clothes of ordinary people, dressed like ordinary people, He Tengxiao looked for a long time before finding Zhang Yuyang.

He Tengxiao asked his husband for a meal, and sat beside Zhang Yuyang in his robe to eat lunch together. In this era, ordinary people generally only ate two meals, which were called morning food and feeding food. The time of the morning food is about 8 o'clock in the morning in later generations, and the time of feeding is roughly equivalent to about 5 o'clock in the afternoon in later generations. He Tengxiao was accustomed to three meals a day in later generations, and the food standard for his subordinates and men was three meals a day.

Zhang Yuyang buried his hands and concentrated on eliminating the food in the bowl, and only raised his head to look at it when he saw someone sitting next to him.

"Lord Qianhu, when did you come to Cloud Guam?" Zhang Yuyang saw that the person sitting next to him was He Tengxiao, so he put down the rice bowl in his hand, swallowed the food in his mouth, and said, "The subordinates learned the day before yesterday that the Lord Qianhu had returned to Pingshan Fort, but Yunguan Island was built in grass, and there were many affairs, and the subordinates couldn't take the time to go back to Pingshan Fort, and I hope that the Lord Qianhu will forgive their sins." ”

"Keep eating yours." He Tengxiao took a bite of food, He Tengxiao was never stingy with the diet of craftsmen and people, these things were handled by Zhang Yuyang himself, Zhang Yuyang ate the same food as the craftsmen and people, no one dared to deduct these foods without opening their eyes. "No matter how busy you are, it's not your turn to serve as a people's husband."

"As a child of a family, Lord Qianhu can put down his posture and bandage the wounds of his soldiers, and what his subordinates do is nothing compared to Lord Qianhu." Zhang Yuyang smiled and said, "My subordinates have made a military order to Lord Qianhu, and if this pier is not built before the sea ice melts, my subordinates will lose their jobs." ”

He Tengxiao didn't know when this matter also reached Zhang Yuyang's ears. However, He Tengxiao, a subordinate of Zhang Yuyang, was very relieved to arrive, and according to the current progress, it is completely possible to build the wharf before the sea ice melts.

After eating, He Tengxiao and Zhang Yuyang inspected the wharf of Yunguam Island together, He Tengxiao had already walked through the barracks and piers, only near the wharf on the east coast, He Tengxiao had not taken a closer look.

At present, the situation of the Great Zhao Empire in Liaodong is not optimistic, and no one can predict where the future of Liaodong will be. If Da Zhao can defend the remnants of Liaodong, He Tengxiao will also be happy and be his free thousands of households. If the situation in Liaodong collapses in the future, there is such a small island, He Tengxiao can also retreat to Yunguan Island to protect himself and survive in this troubled era. Yunguam Island is likely to be He Tengxiao's place of refuge in the future, and He Tengxiao does not dare to be sloppy in the construction of Yunguam.

Although the Yunguam wharf has not yet been filled with rocks to build a port, the buildings on the shore have basically been completed. In addition to the two lighthouses, warehouses and more than a dozen warehouses on the shore have been repaired. And, of course, there was a trading house that stood out from the crowd, not only because it was taller than the other warehouses, but it was three times the size of the others. This is the trading company that He Teng Xiao promised to Shi Jiagai. This trading house is also the first trading house of the Shi family in southeast Liaoning.

In the Shi family trading company, Wen Kelong is taking more than a dozen Shi family decoration trading companies, Shi Yufeng, as the successor of the future Shi family's business, cannot live in Liaodong for a long time, so he left Wen Kelong to take care of the Shi family's business in Liaodong.

Wen Kelong saw He Tengxiao and Zhang Yuyang passing by the Shi family trading company, and went out and arched his hand to He Tengxiao and Zhang Yuyang: "He Qianhu, Zhang Baihu!" ”

"Boss Wen, are you interested in taking a walk?" He Tengxiao returned the gift to Wen Kelong.

"Thousands of adults have spoken, how dare Wen not be interested." Wen Kolon laughed.

He Tengxiao looked at each other and smiled, and walked with Zhang Yuyang and Wen Kelong on the east coast of Yunguan Island.

"When I came, I saw houses being built at the mouth of the Sancha River, and when the Yunguam Wharf was completed, there was no accident that a grass market would most likely form on the estuary of the Sancha River." He Tengxiao said as he walked.

I have to admit that businessmen are a very sensitive group, and it has not been long since the news of He Tengxiao's departure from Zhenyun Guam has spread, and he has not even spread the news to the outside world that he is going to build a wharf on Yungu Island. The merchants of Gaizhou City had already sensed the business opportunities in Yunguam Island, and in just a few dozen days, they had built many houses at the head of the Sancha River.

"A merchant's nose has always been the most sleek." Zhang Yuyang originally wanted to say that a businessman's nose has always been smarter than a dog, but Wen Kelong was on the side, and Zhang Yuyang couldn't compare a dog to a businessman. "The subordinates have already noticed that there are merchants from Gaizhou on the other side of the Sancha River estuary, and after the completion of the Yunguan wharf, it will be the only wharf in Gaizhou City, and in the future, Dengzhou and Laizhou will transport the materials of Gaizhou without passing through Fuzhou and Jinzhou, and then transfer them to Gaizhou, which will save a lot of costs. What's more, it is much more convenient to directly deliver supplies to Gaizhou through the Yunguam terminal than to detour to Fuzhou and Jinzhou. After the completion of the wharf, the Sancha River estuary generation will inevitably form a large-scale grass market. ”

He Tengxiao agrees with Zhang Yuyang's view, and Wen Kelong also believes that in the future, the mouth of the Sancha River will form a large-scale grass market. Grass markets are new business districts that have developed in close proximity to the castles, and the Jianghuai generation has the most prosperous grass market transactions, and some of them have even grown to a scale far larger than the castle to which it was originally attached.

"After the formation of the grass market, do you have any plans to send the inspection department to manage the grass market at the mouth of the Sancha River?" Zhang Yuyang asked.

Generally, after the formation of the grass market, the government will set up an inspection department in the grass market to manage the grass market, of course, it is more important to tax the grass market, and after the formation of the grass market at the mouth of the Sancha River, the miscellaneous tax on the grass market at the mouth of the Sancha River can also obtain a lot of income.

"If I set up an inspection department in the grass market at the mouth of the Sancha River, it will be too bad to give He Shihu face." He Tengxiao shook his head, "After all, Gaizhou City is under the rule of He Shihu, and rashly going to the mouth of the Sancha River will inevitably arouse He Shihu's dissatisfaction, if we want to gain a foothold in Gaizhou City, we can't offend He Shihu too much." Moreover, according to the regulations, the Qianhu officials do not have the power to set up inspection divisions in the grass market. It's better to sell the lion and tiger to save face and write a letter asking him to send an inspection department to the mouth of the Sancha River. ”

"He Qianhu is far away." Wen Kelong nodded and expressed his support for He Tengxiao's move, "It's just that those businessmen in Gaizhou will definitely not stop at the grass market at the mouth of the Sancha River." ”

"That's exactly what I'm looking for you." He Tengxiao said, "I plan to sell some of the shares of the Yunguam terminal. ”

He Tengxiao has been marginalized by the He family for a long time, and his foundation in the He family is very shallow, and if he wants to get involved in the business of Gaizhou City in the future, there will be many obstacles. If it is possible to sell part of the shares of the Yunguam Island Terminal, the interests of Gaizhou merchants will be closely linked to this terminal, and it will not be so difficult to get involved in the Gaizhou shopping mall in the future.

"Sell?!" Wen Kelong was very surprised, after the completion of the Yunguam Wharf, it must only make money and not lose money, why did He Tengxiao still sell the fragrant dumplings of the Yunguam Wharf.

"It's only 50 percent." He Tengxiao saw Wen Kelong's surprised face and explained, "I retain fifty percent of the shares of the wharf, the control of the wharf is still in my hands, and of the remaining fifty percent, I will sell one percent to the Shi family." ”

"That being the case, I went back and wrote a letter to inform my son-in-law that I can't be the master of this matter."

――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――

"I didn't expect the speed of construction of Yun Guam Island to be so fast, this He Tengxiao really has some ability." At the mouth of the Sancha River, three people in small sleeves and short clothes stood on the riverbank looking at Yunguam Island not far away.

The person who spoke was He Shihu, He Shihu was dressed in a small-sleeved short coat, no different from ordinary people, and no one in the crowd could connect him with the identity of the Gaizhou staff general. The two people next to He Shihu are his eldest son He Shiyi and his staff member Zhuang Wencheng.

"He Tengxiao has just returned from Beiyuan City, and Yunguan Island was built by Zhang Yuyang, a hundred households under him." As He Tengxiao's junior, He Shiyi listened to He Shihu praise He Tengxiao, and his heart was sour.

Zhang Yuyang's name He Shihu sounds familiar, but he can't remember who Zhang Yuyang is.

"Zhang Yuyang, but the down-and-out man who defected two years ago?" Zhang Yuyang had voted for He Shihu two years ago, and he was He Shihu's staff for a period of time, Zhuang Wencheng and Zhang Yuyang were both He Shihu's staff, so they were more impressed by Zhang Yuyang.

"Oh, it's him." After Zhuang Wencheng's reminder, He Shihu finally remembered. Two years ago, Zhang Yuyang once defected to him, because Zhang Yuyang has a reputation for raising people and knows some fighting skills, He Shihu took Zhang Yuyang as his staff. It's just that Zhang Yuyang was arrogant at that time, and his personality was incompatible with other staff, and he had many disputes with other staff, and later asked to be the general flag of Pingshan Fort.

"But with my understanding of Zhang Yuyang, this person is arrogant, not the kind of person who is willing to be driven by others, Zhang Yuyang is willing to do things for He Tengxiao, and He Tengxiao is also quite capable in controlling people." Zhuang Wencheng recalled the past and said.

"I'm not wrong about handing over Cloud Guam to him." He Shihu looked sideways at He Shiyi, and said to He Shiyi seriously, "If you have half of his ability, I can worry about it." ”
