"Okay, young master." Steward Cui nodded in agreement, then turned his eyes to Lin Yi and said, "Miss Lin, please inside, I will help you write the bill." ”

Merchant ships docked at the dock and needed to have docking bills, so Steward Cui invited Lin Yi to the study to help her write the tickets for stopping the ship.

Several people walked into the study together, and Steward Cui prepared a pen and paper and asked, "Miss Lin, I wonder when your merchant ship needs to dock at our dock?" ”

Lin Yidao: "Steward Cui, before writing the bill, I want to tell you about the number and scale of our merchant ships. ”

Steward Cui originally thought that he was a friend of the young master, and he wanted to make it convenient to let a small boat dock at the dock, but when he heard Lin Yi say this, his heart sank and he became cautious.

Steward Cui put down his pen, looked at Lin Yi, and asked, "I don't know how many merchant ships in Miss Lin's family need to dock, do we need to arrange someone to unload the goods?" ”

Lin Yi said: "The number of merchant ships, there must be an average of four or five ships a day in the early stage, and in the later stage, this number is not easy to say, as for whether it is necessary to arrange the unloading, I think, some ships are needed, and even need your government to provide a warehouse for stockpiling, I wonder if your government has a warehouse near the wharf?" ”

"This ...... We can provide unloading on the dock, but this needs to greet us in advance, there is no warehouse on the dock, so there is no way to provide a warehouse, but in the city, we have a warehouse in Cuifu, if Miss Lin needs, you can store the goods in the city. ”

At this moment, Steward Cui no longer dared to despise Lin Yi, and he also tried his best to explain all the services that Cui Mansion could provide to Lin Yi.

Lin Yi shook his head and said, "This is not good, I just came back from the dock, and I know that the distance between the dock and the city must be at least half an hour, so it will be too much waste of time and manpower, and besides, our merchant ship is very large, and there are a lot of goods loaded at one time." ”

When Steward Cui heard this, he couldn't be as relaxed as he was just now.

Steward Cui pondered for a moment and said, "I'm sorry, Miss Lin, if your merchant ships are big and have many shifts, I'm afraid that you will have to find another wharf. ”

Lin Yi's gaze turned to Cui Zichen's face, and said distressedly: "Cui Gongzi, is it really not good?" So what do we do? In addition to the pier in Choifu, is there any other bigger pier in Gyeongnam? ”

Cui Zichen hurriedly looked at Steward Cui and said, "Uncle Cui, is there really no other way?" ”

Steward Cui shook his head and said helplessly: "Young master, it's nothing if the boat's departures are more frequent, it's a big deal to send some more people there, but the boat is too big, there is really no way, the dock is so big, the shallow water position by the river is relatively wide, and the big ships are generally deep, so there is no way to get to the shore."

If the boat can't get to the shore, there is no way to take a gangplank to get people off the boat. ”

Cui Zichen frowned and said: "But we only have that pier in Qingnan City, if that pier can't be docked by boat, then where is Miss Lin more suitable?" ”

Steward Cui shook his head and said, "There is only one pier in Qingnan City, if Miss Lin wants to find a port to dock, I'm afraid that she will have to go to Nanyang City below." ”

"That's not going to work." Lin Yi said very firmly: "Nanyang City is too far away from here, if we get the goods from Nanyang City, we will have to spend more manpower and financial resources to transport things back." ”
