Chapter Eighty-Four: Artillery Arquebuses for Girls
The traversers are a little regretful, the tallest security team members have been transferred to the Chiji Agricultural Base, which is said to be extremely deterrent. But the remaining security guards were not given for nothing, and picking another round could also scare the ancients.
Captain Wu Jianqiang recalled 32 members from the salvage team and logistics team, asked them to be fully armed, and after sorting out the military appearance, he personally led the team and went to obey the command of Director Sun De.
They lined up in two lines at the gate of the city, and the ranks were neat, and everyone stood straight. In the sun, the steel guns in the hands of the security guards shone brightly, and the bayonets shone brightly. After Captain Wu Jianqiang circled around the team, he sighed, the murderous aura was there, but this military posture was not good.
Captain Wu Jianqiang suddenly shouted: "Stand up!" ”
The security team members "snapped" and straightened up, and all looked ahead.
"Brethren, what is security? It is the sharp knife of the Hantang Group, the battle of everyone, and the weapon to defend ourselves! All for ourselves...... So, no matter how hard we endure, no matter how tired we are, we are willing! Now everyone is a little lax, and I know that we are busy with work, but we can't lose the military flavor......"
Captain Wu Jianqiang thought about it, stopped the topic, and forgot it, and waited until he settled down and trained in a group.
"Take a break! Let's take off the white gloves, it looks like we can't do a good job with the gun......"
The sentinels reported that the group was approaching the docks of the city of Geranza.
Director Sun De clapped his hands and said to the technicians who had just helped build a big shed: "The Ming people are almost here, thank you, go and get busy with yourself." ”
"Smoke, smoke, what about the good smoke?!" A technician hurriedly reminded.
Director Sun De remembered the casual promise he had just made, and hurriedly took out two boxes of cigarettes from his pocket and threw them over. The technicians dispersed in a hurry, and everyone was in a hurry.
Fortunately, Manager Melloge returned on a three-wheeled motorcycle. He first went back to the office of the finance company, brought the relevant forms prepared earlier, and then found Director Sun De, and briefly introduced the situation in the Chichi area.
Director Sun De said: "You want to hire a group of workers from there? ”
"Yes. At present, all kinds of materials in our hands are relatively sufficient, and the backlog in our hands cannot swing the marginal effect of material application. It's better to put it out and put it all in the water to raise fish. Otherwise, the stagnation of the smallholder economy will not be activated at all......"
"That's a great idea, and the board of directors Li Ziqiang is very grateful to you. By the way, the last time you mentioned the matter, the board of directors unanimously voted to guò. But a guy......"
"Good thing. If you can save one more, you can save one more. Manager Merozie couldn't help but laugh, he knew who was angry, "but he will definitely agree...... A truly rational person cannot reject the true objective reality and will control his own feelings. ”
Manager Merozie once proposed to use the remaining arms and weapons of the Dutch to exchange them with the Nanming government in order to get back some more children, especially for the Guangzhou area.
At the beginning, Director Li Ziqiang was still thinking about how to use these dozens of tons of ready-made metal raw materials. As a result, the manager of Meregg gave clarity and property rights were clear...... But he still had to vote yes, really.
Director Sun De also smiled, but the smile was a little strange.
"What, what's changed?"
"There is no major change, except that the word 'female' is added before 'child'......"
Director Sun De saw Manager Mei Lezhi's expression as if he had eaten a fly, and hurriedly said, "You tell the truth, is a girl a child?" Look, you nodded in agreement. Besides, Taiwan's population structure is very unreasonable...... It's not good for people's physical and mental health. ”
"People, how many evils are committed in the name of you!" Manager Mei Lezhi complained fiercely in his heart.
"Lao Mei, we shouldn't have a moral cleanliness ......"
Manager Mei Lezhi thought about it, but he had to admit that it was good to solve the population structure with this method, and pinched his nose and admitted it.
"Then will Du Yunhe, the governor of Nanming and Guangzhou, agree to only girls?"
"It should be. I'll arrange the contact with him, and you can get an idea of what the exchange rate is. ”
Manager Mei Lezhi took out the Ipd from his briefcase and looked at the prices at the end of the Ming Dynasty, frowning and calculating the plan.
At this time, under the leadership of the sentry, the gang of Ziming people arrived. When passing through the city gate just now, those tall and mighty guards with steel guns and bright bayonets made almost every Ming person numb.
Wu Hualong saw that Director Sun was standing in front of a big shed at this time, smiling and waiting for them. He and Zhou Fu hurriedly stepped forward to pay their respects.
After the visit, Wu Hualong said honestly: "Little Wu Hualong, this time I sent some items to the army, and the small hometown Dajie heard that the army was coming, and he ran away from the Dutch Hongmao, and he was ecstatic, and specially sent condolences in person, and begged Director Sun to accept it." ”
The purchase turned into a consolation, or the big knot was delivered in person.
Director Sun De just wanted to inform Chairman Wu Dapeng, but when he saw the cowering Ming man in the distance, he changed his mind again, and the two people at the level of production team leaders did not need to be received by the chairman in person.
Director Sun De said: "Is it Guo Huaiyi or He Bin? ”
Wu Hualong was shocked in his heart, it seems that these people know a lot about the second-layer Xingxi area! But when he thought about it, he was relieved that they had taken possession of the great city of Geranza, and they would definitely be able to find out.
"Both of them came at the same time."
"Oh, very well, invite them to speak in the shed."
Wu Hualong turned around and went back to invite them.
Zhou Fu stepped forward and bent down and said, "Do not disgrace your mission." I've called back the merchants, captains, and sailors, but a few sailors are missing......
"Good, good! You've done a great deed. ”
Director Sun De patted Zhou Fu's shoulder cordially. This beat made Zhou Fu almost float. He knew that there was a director standing in front of him, and Gao Gongzi also sued him about the matter. If it can be reused by the directors, the benefits must be even more.
"Please all come to the shed, we have something to discuss."
Director Sun De said lightly.
Zhou Fu peeked at Director Sun De's accompaniment, and did not see Gao Gongzi, but saw that it was a young man with a white face, who seemed to be looking at something, frowning from time to time.
In the shed, the six captains and merchants looked at the goods documents in their hands with trepidation, and discussed with their own masters from time to time. These men now have exactly what they have written down as the cargo of their ship.
Guo Huaiyi and He Bin have been peeking around, and when they saw their two sentries for the first time, Guo Huaiyi admired in his heart, two sturdy men! It's just that the body is not murderous...... The short spear he was carrying on his back was the legendary Lian's firecracker? When I saw the guards, I was horrified, and there was a feeling of coldness in the sunny weather......
When he met Director Sun De and Manager Mei Lezhi, He Bin had a strange feeling.
These two men, one with a dark face and the other with a white face, are nothing; They were both dressed in strange floral clothes, which was nothing at all; Even with inexplicable items tied to his thighs, this is even less of a fact
He felt that these two people had a calmness and experience that did not match their age!
It's strange that he doesn't dare to say that he has read countless people, but he also has many experiences. He has studied in a private school for a few years, and he doesn't know martial arts, and he has no power to bind chickens, but he can fight for some family assets in troubled times, how can he get along?
But these two people really don't understand, where did such a young person get his experience?! Also, where is the pity in their eyes!?
Guo Huaiyi has always admired the two teams of soldiers standing at the gate of the city, they are really like pines, not angry and self-assured, far stronger than the army of Hongmao, but there is an iron helmet on his head, but there is no iron armor on his body...... Slightly inferior.
The two of them watched as the white-skinned man who called himself Manager Mei was talking endlessly, while Director Sun personally interpreted for him. Could it be that they don't even have an interpreter, and they need a noble director to do it himself? In addition, the rumbling sound from somewhere in this big city does not stop at all, and it makes people ......
In the future, the Ming people will know that there may be any relationship between these people, but there is no relationship that is more noble than the other. Here, whoever puts on a nobler appearance than the other is likely to be beaten. Except, of course, the women among them. The traversers believe that they are the most noble people in the world now, and the other princesses, queens, and power sisters are probably shit......
After the captains and merchants had confirmed their goods, the manager said, "We will eat all your goods, and we may pay for silver and gold, or we may exchange them for goods, such as pepper, deerskins, venison, cane sugar, and swords." ”
Manager Merges had already dismissed the idea of keeping gold and silver for future preparations for the gold and silver standard. Why? Gold and silver themselves as money are useless if they are not used to buy commodities or circulate as commodity equivalents, except for industrial use. Especially in this age of truth with a fist.
Let's circulate them, let them flow to Mingda 6, which is known as the "silver black hole", and let them accumulate in the local tyrant's kiln! Then first the bandits, then the Manchus, and finally we took them all...... Hum.
The merchants and captains of the Ming people are now very familiar with the price, such as the leaves, which pay four taels of silver and seven taels of silver according to different varieties, which is very fair; For example, raw silk, one hundred and sixty taels of silver, is very profitable. The same is true for the other small ones, not to mention that they have also reduced all kinds of taxes, not to mention that they have also saved more than two months to go to Batavia...... A good thing. But can it be that easy? It wasn't easy.
Director Sun De's later words made the smile on their faces freeze.
Director Sunde said to the effect that they had saved nearly a month and a half of trading time, that they had been treated with a tax exemption on transactions, and that they had kept their goods free of charge during the war, so that they should be reciprocated, and that it had nothing to do with business. They only need to go to one place, that is, to dig up some struvite stones on Coral Island (Dongsha) and come back, and it will take less than a month to complete the work.
Struvite is usually produced in low-latitude islands, mainly a large amount of feces produced by seabirds and undigested fish bones and other food residues, formed after a very long period of accumulation, because of the rich phosphorus, it is a good raw material for making zuò phosphate fertilizer, and has economic value. In that world, Taiwan's Dongsha, Mianyu and Maoyu were all rich in struvite stones, but they were all wiped out during the Japanese occupation.
The soil in the red area is mainly a brick red soil with shallow sea sediments as the mother parent, which is of course more fertile than the basalt red soil in the mountainous areas. But it has the same big disadvantage as subtropical red soil, lack of phosphorus!
The agricultural base has long tested the soil quality of the land, which has also confirmed this.
Before the crossing, the traversers' plan was to wait for the steam engine to be integrated into the wooden boat before they began large-scale excavation. However, he did not expect to be able to capture six Cantonese and Fuku merchant ships, as well as suitable sailors. However, for well-known reasons, the traversers decided to trade fairly with the Ming merchants, and also gave certain preferential treatments. People have to think about the future, right? Fame matters.
However, we should not get used to their mistakes and think that we will gain benefits in vain. So, the traversers made temporary adjustments and arranged for them to dig struvite stones, more or less, it must be enough for the bottom fertilizer of the seedling field, right?
Of course, the traverser brought with them a considerable amount of various fertilizers and pesticides, enough to raise seedlings for the first time. However, tens of thousands of acres of paddy fields are expected to bloom in the entire Chichi area, and there are not enough seeds for the traversers. Therefore, it is also necessary to raise seedlings of quite old varieties. So the fertiliser of the traversers is not enough.
Director Jianguo An wanted to let the Zichuan run several times, but when he thought of the distance of nearly 1,000 kilometers back and forth, he felt that the act of exchanging fuel for struvite was a bit uneconomical.
The problem before the merchants is very clear.
Six merchant ships, one of which suffered some injuries, but was easily repaired.
Do they do it or not?
Thanks to my old friends Yezhongye, Mei Lezhi, and the three book friends who are not chaotic after drinking, for their lasting support and never give up, whether I am in the ** period or the trough period. Personally, I think a book should be more like a river, more often than not, flowing slowly...... Of course, there will be a time for ** to overlap, but that will not become mainstream. Maybe it's more of a book for adults.
