At the port wharf outside Dengzhou City, the fiery red sun has just risen from the sea, but the wharf has already begun to be busy, the merchant ships entering and leaving the port are busy carrying goods, and the coolies on the wharf are like a team of ants, carrying sacks of similar weight to themselves, going back and forth between the warehouse and the cargo ship, from time to time there are coolies to stop, wipe the sweat from their eyes with the rags on their necks, and occasionally see the group of people not far away, their eyes will show a look of envy.

Following the coolies' gaze, they could see several large ships parked at several berths not far away, these ships were obviously refitted, and some shelves and ropes were installed at the tail of the boats, and the crew of the ships were preparing for the sea. There was a group of people standing on the shore next to the boat, and it seemed that they were supposed to see off the boats in Chapter 13 New Fishing.

Li Su looked at the ships in front of him, his eyes couldn't help but show a little excitement, these ships have been refitted, and they have been tested several times by the newly recruited crew above, and now there is no big problem, today is the day when they play their real role.

"Zhou Yu!" Li Su beckoned the clever young man over, this young man is a local, not only very good at fishing, but also clever, after the recommendation of several people in charge, has been appointed by Li Su as the manager of this fishing team.

"The subordinates are here, please command Your Highness!" Zhou Yu trotted over, his face was also red with excitement, he didn't expect that he had just entered the Qi Palace, and he immediately gained the trust of His Royal Highness the King of Qi, and he also entrusted himself with a heavy responsibility, which was already a great kindness for a fisherman like himself.

"Well, when you go to sea this time, how many fish you can catch is secondary, the key is to be more familiar with this new way of fishing, write down any problems encountered by each boat, come back and summarize it, and pay attention to safety. Human life is as big as the sky, and it must be put first! Li Su commanded solemnly. He learned about it during this time, and found that the danger in the sea is far away Chapter 13 New fishing is much more than he knows, these fishermen who go to sea are almost all fighting for their lives, and if they are not careful, they may put their own lives on the line, although the big fishing boats they have modified are much safer than those small boats, but who dares to guarantee 100% safety in this sea matter. After all, even the Titanic sank in later generations.

"His Royal Highness Xie cares, the villain has written it down!" Hearing that Li Yu asked him to put human life first, Zhou Yu immediately burst into tears of excitement. His Royal Highness King Qi not only helped them fishermen destroy the Giant Whale Gang, but also recruited them fishermen who lived helplessly with a lot of money. Now the whole Dengzhou is going to spread this matter, and many people are envious that they can get such a high salary. Now His Royal Highness can still care about the life and death of these people who are as cheap as earth, this kind of benevolent and righteous king, the entire Tang Dynasty only has His Royal Highness the King of Qi in front of him.

It was not too early, after Li Su's order, he let Zhou Yu and them board the boat and set sail, their fishing boats will carry Li Su's hope, and when they return, they will reopen a new chapter in the history of fishing.

"Your Highness. Isn't it a waste for you to buy such a big boat and only use it for fishing? On the way back, Li Su let the horse go, but at this moment, a person half a horse behind him suddenly asked. The man looked to be in his thirties. He is long and thin and tall, with a Chinese face, a hooked nose, and bright eyes, which looks extremely spiritual.

Hearing this, Li Su turned his head and looked at the other party. smiled: "Zhengzheng, when the fishing boat comes back, you will understand." ”

This person was called a regular person by Li Su. In fact, it is the famous Liu Renliang in history, who is his character, originally just a small county lieutenant, and was later transferred to his side by Li Su and became the master of the Qi Palace. Liu Renliang can be literate and martial, he is a rare talent, the only drawback is that his temper is too straight, he can say whatever he wants, sometimes it is easy to offend people, fortunately, Li Su doesn't care much about him.

"But Your Highness, your subordinates have learned about the fishing industry in Dengzhou, and found that fishing boats are generally very small, and the larger ones only require three or five people to operate, and I have never heard of fishing boats like Your Highness, and more than a dozen people on one boat need to work together." Liu Renliang's straight temper flared up again.

Li Su's big fishing boats have long been known all over the city, after all, the fact that the crew is paid 200 wen a month is enough to become a big news in the city. Although many people praise Li Su's benevolence and generosity, but for those fishing boats that seem too large, many people feel that Li Su is extravagant and ruined, so many big boats are enough to form a small fleet, and it is more cost-effective to transport anything than fishing.

"Haha, Zheng, your vision is too short-sighted, you will know when the time comes!" Li Su laughed after hearing this, but he still didn't answer positively, and after laughing, he thought of one more thing, so he asked Liu Renliang, "Zhengzheng, how is the promotion of the salt drying method?" ”

Shandong Peninsula is rich in fish salt, Li Su spent a lot of effort on fishing, of course, for salt production will not forget, compared to the fishery, the salt industry is much simpler, now the Tang people eat salt are made of boiling salt method, this method is expensive and small, and the salt drying method has not yet been invented, Li Su let Liu Ren Rail be responsible for this matter, first according to the principle of Li Su said, organized people to carry out trial production, and found that it was not boiled salt can be compared, so they immediately made a complete set of salt drying process, The patent is registered here in Dengzhou in the name of the Qi Wangfu, and it is also promoted among the salt people, of course, a little patent fee must be charged.

Hearing Li Su ask about this matter, Liu Renliang showed a crying and laughing expression on his face, and immediately made a salute and reported: "Your Royal Highness, although this method of drying salt has many advantages, but the initial investment is also large, and the method of boiling salt is passed down from generation to generation by the salt people, so it is very difficult to implement, fortunately, the salt factory built by the palace is about to be completed, and when you see the benefits of this salt drying method, you will definitely be able to let those salt people switch to the salt drying method themselves." ”

Li Su nodded after hearing this, and said with some emotion: "It is more effective to move people's hearts with profit than to move people's hearts with righteousness, no matter how good you say, it is false, as long as you put real benefits in front of everyone, you can make them willingly follow your ideas." After Li Su finished speaking, he laughed, beat his horse and ran towards Dengzhou City, Liu Renliang hesitated after hearing it, although he felt that Li Su's words were a little inconsistent with the teachings of the saint, but he couldn't find a reason to refute it, and finally could only sigh helplessly, and also beat the horse to follow.

Three days later, the fishing boats sent out finally came back, when these boats just docked, immediately caused a sensation on the dock, people saw that when the fish warehouses of these boats were opened, it was full of fish, and all of them were big fish, each boat caught at least more than 10,000 catties of fish, the whole fishing team combined, there were more than 100,000 catties, it took only three days!

As soon as the news spread, countless Dengzhou people came to see the excitement, and the fish merchants in the fish market heard the news, and they all blossomed and took the initiative to run to the wharf to collect fish, after all, they caught so many fish at once, the price will definitely be lower than the market price, and they can make more money if they can grab a batch.

After Li Su got the news, he happily hugged Wang Xijun and turned around a few times, and Wang Xijun quickly calculated a small account in his heart, and found that if he caught this amount of fish, then the cost of going on and off these fishing boats should be recovered soon, and he finally didn't have to feel distressed.

As for Liu Renliang, these subordinates heard this, and at the same time they all fell silent, thinking carefully about the deep meaning of His Royal Highness King Qi's seemingly nonsense, the more they thought about it, the more shocked they were, if this new fishing method is really promoted, then Datang's fishery production will definitely rise in a straight line, thinking of this, I admire Li Su even more in my heart. However, some people reacted very strangely, such as Zhao Fu, who was most familiar with Dengzhou's political affairs, but after hearing the news, he had a sad face.

Seeing the fishing team of His Royal Highness King Qi, he caught 100,000 catties of marine fish at a time, and the big households in Dengzhou who were mainly engaged in fishing couldn't sit still, and they all showed their magic to the Qi Wangfu or the fishing team to inquire, how did they catch the fish?

For this problem, Li Su didn't plan to keep it a secret, because even if you don't say it, the next time the fishing team goes to sea, people will send a few fishing boats to follow, and they can still figure it out, and Li Su originally wanted to promote this method, but he didn't bother to let people explain, so he simply handed over this matter to Director Xu of the civilian shipyard.

So when the fishing team went to sea for the second time, the government-run private shipyard posted a notice in Dengzhou, which probably means that the boats of the fishing team are all transformed in their shipyard, and the fishing method has also been approved by His Royal Highness King Qi, and it is agreed that it will be promoted by their shipyard.

Now the whole Dengzhou fishing households have exploded, have run to the civilian shipyard to place orders, and when they get the new fishing method only to find that the original Qi Wangfu fishing team with a new type of fishing net called trawl in fishing, this kind of fishing net is used, put into the water by the stern, and then dragged forward by the boat, after a period of time with the winch on the boat to put away, catch up with the fish, a net down is thousands of pounds of fish, which is much more efficient than the fishing net they usually use.

Just when the trawling was slowly spreading in Dengzhou, the fishing team of Li Sufu seized the time of the fish flood and desperately fished in the sea, and could bring back no less than 100,000 catties of marine fish every time, which made many people red-eyed.

However, just when many people in Dengzhou were looking forward to the benefits brought by this kind of trawling, Zhao Fu suddenly broke into the palace of King Qi, and as soon as he saw Li Su, he immediately knelt down and begged: "Your Highness, you can't continue to fish like this, otherwise most of the fishermen in Dengzhou will have no way to live!"
