Chapter 469: New Shipyard
Three days later, the Tang army transferred to the border returned triumphantly, and after learning that Li Hao led 3,000 garrisons and defeated more than 10,000 Japanese invaders, the Suzhou army could not help but admire. They came to visit and greet each other.
Li Hao naturally did not treat these guests badly, and held a banquet to wash the dust for them.
After coming and going, Li Hao quickly became familiar with the generals of the Suzhou army.
Later, the 7,000 Dongying prisoners were divided into more than 100 teams, each guarded by the army, and sent to various places to start the reconstruction work.
Tens of thousands of people's homes were destroyed and their property was greatly damaged. Now that there are a group of captives serving as manpower, Suzhou's financial pressure is much less.
In addition, Li Hao squandered his wealth and snatched the widows, and donated all the treasures that had been ownerless and invested them as silver taels to rebuild. Almost no money was spent on the people who rebuilt their damaged homes.
Such an intimate move has made Li Hao's reputation in the hearts of the people of Suzhou much higher.
It's just that the people didn't notice that Li Ziyin seized the limelight of this reconstruction, quietly transferred a large number of materials from the Li family in Longxi, and secretly made a lot of money.
As a businessman, he will never forget to make money. Anyway, the materials are all to be bought, and the fertilizer and water do not flow into the fields of outsiders, even if Li Hao saw Li Ziyin's black-box operation, he didn't say much.
A month later, the reconstruction of the home was nearing completion, and Li Hao began to work on his own plans to build a shipyard.
In the past month, he has entrusted the work of rebuilding his homeland to the leaders of the Suzhou army, and has devoted himself to the affairs of the shipyard.
He inspected the site of the shipyard and selected the workers by himself. After a busy month, the plan for a new shipyard was finally formulated.
Suzhou Binhai, the geographical location is excellent, there are high-quality ports everywhere, with the assistance of a group of old boatmen in Suzhou, Li Hao found a vast port sea area, and spent a lot of money to contract.
This month, Li Jiazhuang did not participate in any Xinjian work business, and all resources were spent on buying materials for the shipyard.
In just one month, near the port, a large number of resources and materials have been hoarded, and they can be put into construction work at any time.
Originally, there were still people who were afraid of Li Hao's behavior and reported these things. But Li Shimin had no choice but to set up a sailor, Li Shimin had already known about it, and he helped Li Hao with all his might.
All the way to the green light, there is simply no one to organize the construction of the shipyard.
After the completion of the reconstruction of the homeland, the hatred of the people of Suzhou for the Japanese has also eased a lot, although there is still no good face, but at least it will not be like at the beginning, shouting and killing as soon as they see it.
Li Hao was also relieved to transfer them all back and start building a shipyard.
The Japanese are also completely dead at this moment. The Suzhou army has returned, numbering in the tens of thousands. Every day, they are guarded by the army, and they are unarmed, and it is impossible for them to escape, let alone resist. In the end, it can only be the people, let Li Hao send it.
At the beginning of the work of the shipyard, the people of Dongying worked in the port every day, and over time, the fierce anger on their bodies was also washed away, and they gradually adapted to the life of working with their hands in exchange for food.
Seeing that these bandits were becoming more and more honest, Li Hao's heart was also relieved.
As long as the ferocity of these gangsters is eliminated, it will be easier for them to implement their next plan.
The shipyard was built day by day, and the area was so large that it alarmed all the wealthy merchants in Suzhou County.
Many people came to Li Hao with money to ask for cooperation, but without exception, they were all politely rejected by Li Hao.
Li Jiazhuang has strong financial resources, and the most important thing is money, and Lu Yuchang, Li Ziyin, and even Li Shimin have sent their daughter Li Mingda to help Li Hao, can money be lacking?
On the contrary, this shipyard was built for Li Hao's gradual invincible fleet in the future, and Li Hao did not want too many investors, otherwise there would be a conflict in the future.
Businessmen make profits, Li Ziyin and Lu Yuchang are okay, they are all friends and partners, many things can be decided in private, if too many investors are mixed in, I am afraid that there will be too many things to solve in the future.
Li Hao is a businessman himself and knows the doorway. The most annoying thing is to discuss things with businessmen. As a person who has traveled from modern times, he knows that if too much capital is added to one thing, it will become sour.
Two months passed in a flash, and a huge shipyard gradually took shape.
During this period, Li Mingda has been by Li Hao's side and shared the work for him. is a good princess of the Tang Dynasty, and she is so tired that she goes back to the room to rest and falls asleep every day. Li Hao looked distressed, but in the eyes of outsiders, Li Mingda was Li Hao's virtuous helper.
In the past, the people of Datang knocked over the CP candy of Li Hao and Princess Jinyang, but now the two complement each other, and their tacit cooperation makes the people recognize this couple, looking forward to the stars and the moon, waiting for them to get married.
On this day, Li Ziyin, who had been busy with business for a long time, suddenly returned to the shipyard.
"Lord Wang, the materials for making the warship have been purchased!"
"Good work!" Li Hao smiled slightly and helped Li Ziyin add a cup of tea.
In the past two months, not only Li Hao and the others, but Li Ziyin has also worked very hard, she has to take care of the business of the Li family in Longxi on the one hand, and also take care of the task of helping Li Hao buy and manufacture warships. After running around for many days, I lost a lot of weight.
"Lord Wang, now that the shipyard has been built, and the materials for manufacturing the warship have been almost purchased, are the warship drawings ready?"
"It's ready, look!"
Li Hao said, and took out the warship manufacturing map that had been hidden on his body for many days.
Li Ziyin looked at the warship manufacturing map and couldn't help but show a look of horror.
"Lord Wang, where did you get this atlas from? The warships of the past and present are all on it! ”
As a businessman, Li Ziyin is also proficient in the ship business, and she is also involved in warship manufacturing. The moment she saw the map, she was shocked to find that all the warship drawings she had said she had seen when she was doing business in the past were actually on this manufacturing map.
You must know that Li Ziyin's identity, everything she sees and hears is the highest level, and ordinary patterns can't enter her eyes.
In the past, in order to refine his eyes, Li Ziyin spent a lot of money to buy a lot of patterns of high-quality warships. But these patterns purchased with a lot of money seem to be unwanted.
There are more atlases that Li Ziyin has never seen before, and with her eyesight, it is not difficult to see that these atlases that she has never seen are more exquisite than the ones she has ever seen.
How terrible would the quality of the fleet be if warships were made according to these maps?
Li Hao looked at Li Ziyin's stunned look, and couldn't help laughing: "I've been reading this atlas for a while, but after reading it for a long time, I always feel that it's still wrong, although these warships have their own advantages, they also have their own disadvantages. It would be nice to be able to put together a bit of all the ship's bits. ”
"This ......"
Li Ziyin was stunned, she was already surprised when she saw this atlas just now, but she didn't expect that Li Hao was still not satisfied! Could it be that this is the reason why the equipment of the Linghui Army can always surpass the enemy?
