Chapter 1181: Going to Sea to Fish
"So Your Majesty called us here to ask for money?"
"Huh! I've suffered a loss of buying things without asking the price before, why don't you remember it for a long time this time? ”
"Isn't this in a hurry to get the light of the emperor, let's build a few more for us, just forget about this ......stubble!"
When the old goods left the imperial study, the smile on their faces immediately disappeared, and they muttered in annoyance.
"Forget it, buy it at a high price, you can enjoy it in advance, how many years can we live?"
"That's right, isn't the money earned just the money spent!"
"That's right! It is estimated that even if it is listed in large quantities, the price will not be less than 5,000 gold! Let's enjoy it for a few months, and it's worth it! ”
"Yes, yes......!"
There is no way, the high price has been spent, and the old goods can only comfort themselves.
After leaving the palace, each head back to his own mansion!
……
Nanhai County, Nanhai City.
The Ministry of Industry has built a seafood processing factory, and has found a few capable people from each store to be factory managers and workshop managers.
Male and female workers were recruited from among the local population.
As soon as the workers arrived, the factory director began to organize the drying of sea salt.
Whether drying fish or canning it, salt is essential.
Before the navy could bring the fish back, the workers were trained and dried to make sea salt!
In addition, the glass factory in Nanhai County also shipped a lot of glass bottles for canning.
After the canning is ready, the production date, the type of fish, how to eat it, and the nutritional value are printed on each glass bottle.
Even people who have never been in contact with these fish and shrimp know how to eat them after reading the above introduction!
Since the fishing was finalized, Han Xin transferred 50,000 men from the navy to Nanhai City.
Part of it fishing, part of it is normal training, and Xin Sheng is in charge!
"Are you all ready?"
In the port of Nanhai City, Xin Sheng stood hand in hand, facing the ships and naval officers who were about to go to sea, and shouted and asked.
"Ready!"
The soldiers echoed in unison.
Although they are not on the battlefield, they can make more money by going to sea to fish, which is also a great motivation for them!
"Go to sea now!"
Xin Sheng waved the flag in his hand and immediately gave the order.
"Woo ......"
The steamer was already ready, just waiting for this order.
Give the order and go now!
Each steamer is equipped with a fishing net that has just been built by Ying Feiyu, and the fishing ability is much stronger than their traditional fishing nets.
Coupled with the ecological environment of this era, every network will have great gains.
"Your Majesty said that the fish we brought back will be distributed to us according to the price after they are sent to the factory, and I don't know how much we can share!"
"Then it should depend on how many fish we can catch, right?"
"Hmmm! Although this fishing net looks a little strange, as long as it is something that His Majesty has studied, there is nothing bad to use, and it will definitely be more than the traditional fishing net we have to beat! ”
"Yes, yes, let's just wait to get the dividends......!"
As the steamer departed from the port and headed for the target area, the soldiers stood on deck and began to talk.
The ship rode the wind and waves at sea, and arrived at the destination sea area after about half a day.
The soldiers began to work together to throw fishing nets.
At the time of harvest, all the soldiers were shocked.
Before, they could harvest hundreds of catties when they went down the net, but they were all happy, at least enough for a good meal for the soldiers on board.
But this net, the fish and shrimp harvested, at least tens of thousands of catties.
Above the deck, the bunks are full, all of which are fresh fish and shrimp jumping around.
"Good guy, this fishing net is so easy to use, can you catch so many fish and shrimp in one net?"
"yes, I didn't expect that either!"
"This is the first net, and when we dock in Hong Kong in three days, we can catch at least 100,000 catties!"
"Hmmm! Almost......! ”
Seeing the abundant catch, the soldiers couldn't close their mouths with joy.
You know, the more they catch, the more dividends they get in the end!
The officers and men of the Navy have a clear division of labor, and some of them are specially responsible for casting and collecting nets.
The other part is responsible for moving the caught fish and shrimp from the deck to the cabin and handling them simply to prevent spoilage!
Don't look at these jobs as dirty and tiring, but the soldiers are in full swing.
Before enlisting in the army, everyone was a child of an ordinary family, and they had to work in the fields at the age of seven or eight, and hard-working was the basic operation!
As long as they have money, they are full of energy!
……
Three days later, it was the day when the soldiers who had gone out to sea to fish returned home.
The soldiers who were training in the city took advantage of their free time and all ran to the dock to wait, wanting to see how much they could gain from one trip.
"I heard that the salaries of many factories have reached 10 gold per month, and I don't know if the dividends we go to sea to fish can reach this number!"
"Impossible! When pigs fly! Let's take the normal distribution of the imperial court, and the fishing part is considered an extra income, how can it be so high? ”
"That's it! I'm content with one piece of hardware! ”
"Not really! Three hardware can buy a fat pig, enough for the family to eat for a long time ......! ”
While waiting, the soldiers speculated about how much they would get from fishing.
"Woo ......"
After a while, I finally heard the sound of a steamer.
Subsequently, dense dots appeared on the surface of the sea.
The dots grew larger and larger, whistling towards the harbor in white smoke.
"It's back! It's back! It's finally back! ”
The soldiers jumped and cheered on the shore, waving to the small dots on the sea in the distance, and I didn't know if they could see it.
"Woo...... Woohoo......"
After a few moments, the steamer also seemed to spot them, honking its horn at them.
Xin Sheng got the news and rushed over, wanting to know the harvest of fishing as soon as possible, and report it to Xianyang when he turned around!
The steamer was very fast, and it didn't take long for it to reach the port.
The soldiers couldn't wait to jump off the boat, and saluted Xin Sheng with a happy face, "General! ”
"Hmmm! It looks like a good harvest! ”
didn't have to get on the boat, just looking at the expressions of the soldiers, Xin Sheng had already guessed seventy-seven-eighty-eight.
"Haha! Thanks to the fishing nets ordered by His Majesty, they are much easier to use than our previous ones! ”
The soldiers smiled and reported the report.
"How much? How much? How much did you play? ”
"Why do you have to have 30,000 catties?"
Without waiting for Xin Sheng to ask specifically, some soldiers couldn't wait to ask.
However, the soldier who had just returned from going to sea smiled mysteriously and shook his head, "You're talking about a day, right?" ”
"One day?"
"So, you went to sea for three days and caught 100,000 catties of fish?"
"Good fellow......!"
When the soldiers heard this number, their jaws almost dropped.
I thought that 30,000 catties was a lot, but I didn't expect it to be just a day's number!
"Is there really such a big harvest?"
Even Xin Sheng was a little incredulous and asked in surprise.
"General Hui, the fishing nets ordered by His Majesty are very useful, each net has about 10,000 catties of fish, and in three days, each boat has almost 100,000 catties of harvest!"
The soldiers reported truthfully.
"Good, good! The factory has already prepared a car to assist them in dumping the fish and shrimp from the boat, repairing it a little, and going to sea again! ”
When the factory learned that the fishing boat had returned today, it arranged manpower and vehicles early in the morning to wait for the docking of the ship's seafood.
As soon as the soldiers dumped the fish and shrimp on the boat, they immediately loaded them into trucks and pulled them away and sent them to the factory for processing!
"Yes!"
The soldiers responded and hurried to do it.
