It's very simple, a good beam, as long as it is not a rare wood, the wooden row here is sold as ordinary wood, such as 10 taels of silver. But such a pillar, if the local tyrant has a beam, it is at least 100 taels. If it is suitable for making keels, private shipyards will produce 200 taels!

And Luo Zhengrong only needs to mark on the account book that this pillar has already been sold, and he doesn't have to pay his own capital, so he can earn 90 taels or 190 taels for nothing. Even if you still have to share the profit up and down, but this day is just as fat.

But this kind of fertilizer can only be a trickle of water, and there is no way to get rich all of a sudden.

If it was before, Zhang Zhongjun's proposal for this partnership, although Luo Zhengrong was moved, he couldn't help increase many benefits. But now that the largest timber mill in Wenlongjiang, the Huangwu Forest Farm, has been closed, and it is not so simple for the shipyard that is accustomed to getting timber from itself to transfer supplies from other places.

Because everyone has a supply place, one family is fixed for one place. Now that there is suddenly a supply of goods, and you want to transfer goods from other stores, it is not so easy, and the price will naturally jump up.

So Luo Zhengrong rolled his eyes and said very bluntly: "I can increase the purchase price by up to 30%!"

Zhang Zhongjun stretched out a finger: "Give you 10% of the transaction price." ”

Luo Zhengrong frowned, obviously because he was too little. But Zhang Zhongjun smiled and said: "Like the wood I brought, I can provide at least 300,000 sticks, as long as I give some time, it will be even more." ”

Luo Zhengrong blinked his eyes, and immediately calculated that he bought it at a price of 13 taels, 300,000 taels is 3.9 million taels of silver, and an achievement is 390,000 taels!

Luo Zhengrong's face changed, and he gritted his teeth and said: "As long as you guarantee that the timber sent is the same as your batch, I dare to buy it with 15 taels!"

"Deal!" Zhang Zhongjun stretched out his palm, and Luo Zhengrong naturally slapped it. This kind of thing of dividing up the interests of the government does not need to be signed, just a high-five and it is done.

It wasn't until the two adults high-fived that the personnel on both sides, who had been waiting with bated breath on the side with the words of the two adults, finally exhaled violently, and then laughed in unison.

No one is stupid, and since the two adults are talking about this kind of internal and external collusion to make a fortune in front of them, they must have oil and water to get involved.

Luo Zhengrong's subordinates were thinking about how much they could get from the 450,000 taels that their boss had scooped up.

The people on Zhang Zhongjun's side almost couldn't suppress their ecstasy, they were all locals in the Shuilin area, they didn't know that a piece of wood was already profitable when it was sold for one tael, and now a piece of wood was sold for 15 taels, which was a lot of money!

I'm afraid that the cost of 300,000 pieces of wood doesn't even need 50,000 taels of silver, but it can be sold for 4.5 million taels of silver! After deducting the cost and the 450,000 yuan given to Lord Luo, doesn't that mean that you can earn 4 million taels of silver?!

Oh my God! 4,000,000 taels! What a huge mountain of silver this is! With the generous appearance of Master Zhang, how much does it cost for these people to drink a mouthful of soup?

Everyone has a relationship of interest, and the relationship is immediately close to the same as brothers, Luo Zhengrong's gang directly pulled Zhang Zhongjun and his gang to Magong Town to eat, drink and have fun.

When he arrived in Magong Town, Zhang Zhongjun found that this town was nominally a town, but whether it was protection or government, it was actually at the county level.

The so-called town wall of Magong Town, and the area of the town, are not smaller than those of Zijin County, and the mayor in it is directly served by the officials of the seventh grade, and there are also the town captains of the eighth grade, and the city guards who are not weaker than the city guards of Heyuan Mansion.

And the reason why a town has a county system is because Magong Town, which occupies the advantageous position of the sea mouth, is really prosperous!

There is no need to talk about the dense shops and workshops in the city, just say that it was built at the mouth of the sea, which belongs to the dock of the city wall, and the crowded sea ships there are almost as big as the city wall, and the small ones have to be looked up to, in addition to hundreds of sea boats, there are thousands of offshore and inland river boats, and many more small boats for transshipment!

That amount was so dense that it almost covered the sea on that side.

Zhang Zhongjun and these people gasped almost at first sight, they had never seen so many ships, and they had never seen such a prosperous scene. Heyuan Mansion can't be compared to this Magong Town as a prefecture!

As soon as he thought of this, Zhang Zhongjun couldn't help but sigh with emotion, the strength of Shanzhou Mansion was obviously many times stronger than Heyuan Mansion. And the Sanyun Gang, the gang that controls the countryside of Shanzhou Prefecture, must be several times stronger than Fengwutang!

As for why Magong Town is not under the control of the Sanyun Gang? On the contrary, it is under the control of the government? Just kidding, seeing this prosperous scene in front of them, the government will be an idiot before it will give up this town to the Sanyun Gang! And as long as the government is interested, the gang can only retreat, because the strength of the government is countless times stronger than the gang!

Similarly, Zhang Zhongjun also woke up a little, why the government that was just shrunk in the city could still be so free, looking at the government's control of Magong Town, and thinking that the economic towns all over the country were in the hands of the government.

In addition, the land in the world is still in the hands of the gentry and landlords, and to put it mildly, the government is to throw some insignificant towns and villages to the management of gangs, and other important areas are firmly in the hands of the government.

The so-called equal division of the world between the government and gangs is actually a big lie, a lie that a gang deceives itself, but unexpectedly even the common people have deceived it.

Knowing this, Zhang Zhongjun was really glad that he had chosen the path of the government again, and if he really wanted to choose a gang, I am afraid that he would not know how to die.

Deliberately took Zhang Zhongjun and them up to the city tower to watch the scenery, for this shock, so Luo Zhengrong, who was very proud, was about to beckon Zhang Zhongjun and them to have fun, but Zhang Zhongjun suddenly found something and pointed to the distance and asked: "Lord Luo, what kind of boat is that? Why are there wheels on both sides?"

Luo Zhengrong looked at it and said with a smile: "That's a paddle steamer, a ship powered by manpower and sails, which is very suitable for going upriver in deep waters." Speaking of this, Luo Zhengrong suddenly clapped his hands and said: "Ah! Yes, Lord Zhang, you might as well buy a boat like this and go up and down the Wenlong River, so that the communication between the two sides of us will be much more convenient." You must know that it takes thirty or forty days to ride a horse all the way back to Heyuan Mansion by land! The road is too rough. ”

"What is the draft?" asked Zhang Zhongjun with his eyes shining.

"The paddle steamers are big and small, but the smallest draft is 3 meters deep. Luo Zhengrong said.
