Chapter 119: Admiral of the Water Division

With the large-scale harvest of winter wheat, the granary of Huaxia has gradually been enriched, the smiles on the faces of the bigwigs of the Financial Secretary are getting brighter day by day, and Li Kang's waist pole can't help but be much stronger, which is reflected in the aspect of doing things, that is, it is more atmospheric.

For example, he did not hesitate to set up the No. 2 landing site at the mouth of the Great River - the landing site in the northern part of the Wilderness of Atonement is honored to have its own name 'No. 1 landing site' - the main role is the same as the No. 1 landing point, for the transit of goods, and the raw materials needed by Qihuan Town can be obtained directly from the waterway in the future, and there is no need to go by land, and it will take a long time to transfer from Xin'an Town.

The importance of waterways began to come to the fore, and correspondingly, the shipbuilding industry had to expand its scale, and although Li Kang could exchange it directly from the system, the cost was a problem. Unless necessary, Li Kang did not intend to use the precious gold for the raw materials that could be obtained and the finished products that could be manufactured now, but as much as possible to summon the Chinese people, industrial products that could not be manufactured now, and some industrial technology.

Huaxia's No. 1 Shipyard was originally located in Xin'an Town, and later divided into two, most of which were relocated to Qihuan Town, which was located by the sea, and the purpose of the original relocation was mainly to build sharp-bottomed sea ships, which also inherited its original name "Huaxia No. 1 Shipyard"; the remaining small part did not continue to stay in Xin'an Town, but moved to Shennong Town, responsible for the construction of inland river flat-bottomed boats.

Qi Huan Town, seeing another batch of sun-dried timber arrived, Kaifeng, who was transferred from the original leader of the fishing fleet to the commander of the navy, suddenly smiled, and now there is not a single battleship in the entire naval division in China, it can be foreseen how eager the admiral is for the battleship, if he doesn't know how to build a ship, he can't wait to twist the hammer himself.

Helplessly, shipbuilding is not an overnight thing, no matter how urgent he is, it will not help, among the three battleships lying in the dock, the fastest ship will have to wait for a month before the sea trial, and the slowest one has not even been laid keel, it is just a concept, and I don't know if it will have to wait until the year of the monkey.

But none of this can wipe out the Admiral's heart to build a ship, just like he kept making reports to find Li Kang and the Construction Department to grab wood.

In the words of the Admiral, "It is a great waste to use such fine timber to build houses, and their destination is the magnificent sea!"

"Lord Admiral, after the second landing point is on the right track, if you need wood, you can directly approach the mouth from the Hedong area, which can greatly shorten the processing time, and can also avoid arguing with the construction department, which is really gratifying!" Qi Yu stood aside, looking at the light of his eyes, and couldn't help but say.

"Lord Chengzhen, you have a good word!" The smile on Kaifeng's face couldn't be hidden, he had long been tired of the bureaucrats of the Construction Department who wasted good wood, and now he finally didn't have to fight with them anymore, the Construction Department did not have a timber import quota, although they didn't need it, compared to the water division, the Construction Division's requirements for timber were not so high, and they could use almost any wood.

"Oh, by the way, the timber is too large and occupies too much space, I'm afraid that the Foreign Affairs Department will not be willing to transport it to us, do you think we will build a fleet ourselves?" Kaifeng asked tentatively towards Qi in advance, most of the current public ships in Huaxia have been given to the Foreign Affairs Department, and a small number of them are used as fishing boats, and there are several boats in Qihuan Town that specialize in fishing.

"Where did we get the ship?" Qi Yu rolled his eyes, he had already wanted to build some civilian ships, but the Admiral in front of him had to build all the warships, and now he mentioned to him the matter of forming a fleet, why did he buy it earlier?

Who knows, Kaifeng didn't care about his attitude, but had a confident expression, and said, "There is no boat to spend money on?"

"Where to buy?" Qi said curiously.

"Lord, buy from Lord, don't all those private fishing boats do this?" said Kaifeng as a matter of course.

"......" Qi was silent, [It does feel very reasonable?]

Unlike the traditional civil and military who don't like each other, they get along very happily with each other.

After a few months of practical training, Qi Yu's Wenqing has changed a lot, at least he knows that interests are more important than Raush's decency.

And the sailor can bring benefits to Qihuan Town, you must know that if the sailor finally sets up the base camp in Qihuan Town, it will play an immeasurable role in the development of Qihuan Town in the future.

First of all, the political style will be a few grades, after all, it is the residence of the naval division, so it can't be treated as an ordinary town, right?

Secondly, let's talk about the reality, when there are more officers and soldiers of the Navy Division in the future, just the expenses of the thousands of officers and soldiers of the Navy Division will not be a small amount, and when the time comes, Qihuan Town will not be the first to get the moon near the water, and the officers and soldiers will not be able to leave Qihuan Town, which is close at hand, not to choose, and they have to go far away to consume, right?

Therefore, for the head of the sailor, Qi Yu is still willing to make friends.

And for Kaifeng, it is the same reason, Qi Pre, as the mayor of Qihuan Town, will have more places to rely on in the future, and everyone is in Qihuan Town, one acre and three points of land, looking down and not looking up, how good it is to be friends, why do you want to get a nose is not a nose, and the eyes are not eyes.

What's more, Qi Yu is a scholar, and Kaifeng was just a sailor before, and his identity was naturally at a disadvantage, but now he can make friends with scholars on an equal footing, and his self-esteem can be greatly satisfied.

Therefore, there is no pressure for these two people to do business together, which is also related to Li Kang's prohibition of officials under him from doing business.

"You see, while transporting timber, we can also bring some Hedong native products back..."Kaifeng saw Qi predetermined, and hurriedly began to analyze the situation, "You think, after the food pressure is reduced, the lord will definitely gather manpower, and now you also feel that although there are not many people recruited each time, there will be an increase of one or twenty people almost every day, as soon as the population goes up, the market will prosper, and as soon as the market is prosperous, business will be done, and these local products are at that time!"

"Moreover, you adults share the worries of the people, and you have a lot of hard work, but you are limited to the conditions, and you have little enjoyment, which is really admirable! We are small and can't do anything, but we do our best to give you a little comfort, and it can be regarded as fulfilling the feelings of colleagues!"

Qi was blinded by Kaifeng's set, but he didn't expect a martial artist to be quite good at talking! The market and business in front of him, he didn't care, but he understood what Kaifeng said about 'meager strength'!

So, Qi pre-stroked his beard and said solemnly: "That's right!

"That's right, I'm going to gather my subordinates to get together, and Lord Qi should also grasp it!" Kaifeng is an impatient, and he sits wherever he wants, "This first crab can't let others take the lead!"

It's just that he never expected that this first crab would not be his turn to eat it for a long time!
