Chapter 722: The Great Plan to Make Money (15)
Okay, now let's talk about how to make money. ”
Bai Qing accepted the draft that had been transferred by Zhao Lin, but he was not in a hurry to look at it, but couldn't help but sit up straight with his subordinates, listen attentively, and wait for Qi Ke to give more attention to the next step.
Qi Ke changed another piece of blank paper, and the brush was also dipped in ink and rested on the pen mountain.
"As the only money bag with development potential of Baijiajun, Hekou Bay should attract passing overseas merchant ships to come in for supplies and do business, and slowly accumulate by word of mouth, and finally make Hekou Bay the best sea and land transshipment terminal, so that high-quality goods from overseas can continue to enter the inland through the main stream of the Jiuzhi River." Qi Ke first made a general speech, which was also to verify with Bai Qing that what he said was right, and there was no misunderstanding between the two sides.
"Yes, it's the plan." The men nodded.
"Okay, as the so-called open source and reduce expenditure, let's first sort out how many incomes we can have."
"Okay, listen up." Now it's time to officially talk about how to make money, and the atmosphere in the room has become serious.
"Okay, let's first see if the waterway for the sea ship to enter the estuary bay is smooth, whether there are reefs under the water, etc., do you want special people to get on the boat to assist the ship to dock at the dock."
"Uh, is there any more such a problem?"
"Yes, who knows if there is a reef and swelling hidden under the water in this section of the channel that enters the estuary bay from the sea, and the Jiangxinzhou that is exposed to the water, do you know how wide and deep its underwater riverbed is? If you are not familiar with hydrology, what should you do if the big ship that harms others runs aground? What should I do if I hit the rocks? Then we have to compensate for the losses of others, repair the ship, settle the crew and bear their food, and then see whether the goods on the ship are taken over by a merchant on the spot. ”
"Well......" The men folded their arms in contemplation, all they thought about was how complicated and troublesome it was, and it was so embarrassing for them to think about how to make money from the sea as a group of northern landlubbers who had never seen the sea.
"If we have such talents, then we can do this business, charge the big ships and give them pilotage, instead of letting strange ships run rampant in our waters and make a scene of foreign invasion." Qi Ke drew a fragrant flatbread, "After receiving the money, you have to do a good job, and take the merchant ship to dock at the dock safely, according to the cargo capacity of the sea ship, the fee for leading a channel can be calculated as gold." ”
"Gold?!" Qi Ke's cake successfully woke up the generals who didn't know where the iQue was going, and their eyes were round and shining.
"yes, you don't want to count it as gold? That's okay with silver, and the way to collect money can be discussed. If you are lucky, you will not have the strength to sail again when you encounter a ship, you must dock as soon as possible to repair and replenish, in the absence of a better choice, it will be easier to discuss, if it doesn't matter whether you want to supply the ship in the estuary, don't be reluctant, this time it is not negotiated, there will be next time, the sea is so big, there will always be business to do, the estuary bay is here, this time you can pass by next time, you can pass by a few more times to mix a familiar face is also good. ”
Bai Qing and the others were no longer listening to what Qi Ke was saying, and their minds were full of the idea that they could collect a sum of gold by bringing a ship in, and for the generals of the Bai family army who had been poor for many years, they had a sense of small family spirit in their hearts that they had never seen money.
Eat the sea by the sea, is it so profitable?!
