Chapter 532: Ocean Trade
Hearing Huang Shang say that it was a benefit he had never seen, Huang Jinyuan's eyes lit up, and even Huang Feng came to the momentum.
Huang Jinyuan said: "How can you give away the money you get?" ”
Huang Sheng frowned and said: "All the money can't be made by one person, how much energy will you have to deal with the 'ghosts' in all directions?" ”
Huang Jinyuan thought for a while and said, "If there are 'ghosts', we have to wait until we see them." ”
He doesn't see a rabbit and doesn't scatter eagles, there is no hope for becoming an official in the imperial examination, so he wants to make some money, how can he do it if he doesn't make it himself?
It's normal to have competition, it's normal to have vicious competition, and I understand it by using some shady means, and it's not like I've never seen it. I'm afraid that these honest people will have no worries about food and clothing if they lie flat in Huangjia Village, so why bother to come out and run around.
It's cool to make money, it's even cooler to spend money, and it's the coolest to trample those who want to use improper means to try their own money.
He didn't know how profitable the ocean trade would be, but after seeing Huang Shang's martial arts, he also had full confidence in this transaction.
It was also because he saw Huang Shang's martial arts that he was willing to give up the benefits he had gotten. His calculation is that if he can't do it, there is Huang Sheng to cover him, and the sixteen-year-old Huang Sheng is already omnipotent in his eyes.
And Huang Shang planned this transaction just casually, to find a way out for the family, but he didn't want to spend too much energy on it. If you can solve a problem with money, why let yourself use force? Even if you make your own move, it will never be for the money, and you won't be able to move yourself no matter how much money you have.
Huang Sheng and Huang Jinyuan are two kinds of people, no one can make sense of anyone, Huang Shang can only give up.
No one understands Huang Shang, not even Li Canghai. If you are not greedy for money, you will not design this kind of profiteering business, why do you want to take the initiative to give benefits to others if you are greedy for money?
Li Canghai is a person who really doesn't take money seriously, and she is also a person who is not bad for money, she will never want to make money, and she will not earn more or less.
Huang Sheng felt as if he had dug another hole for himself, and just hoped that the people of the Huang family could fill the hole themselves.
Sailing is not just a boat, and the sea ship designed by Huang Shang is not for wandering around, but for the ocean, which requires more technical support and military support.
Taking advantage of the time when the ship was not yet built, Huang Shang perfected the compass, trained the sailors, and made a large number of repeaters. Coupled with the bed crossbow and the divine arm bow mounted on the big ship, it should be able to resist for a while.
Li Canghai really accompanied Huang Sheng to serve tea and pour water, and was still waiting for Huang Sheng to live. Looking at the endless whimsy of Huang Shang's pen, even the carefree school, which is known for its erudition and talent, cannot fully grasp the mysteries.
In terms of martial arts, Li Canghai didn't want to think about it anymore, but he didn't expect that in terms of mechanical handyman, astronomy and geography, Huang Sheng also had the talent to transcend the times, which made Li Canghai feel unfathomable.
Finally, a huge sailing ship 44 feet long and 18 feet wide was completed. The hull of the ship is carved in the shape of a giant whale, and the bow and hull are surrounded by giant bows and ballistas, and the hull is curved, and the stern is like a whale's tail. Docked in the bay of Quanzhou, the passing merchant ships all looked sideways, only feeling that the gods were awe-inspiring, and they were the overlords of the ship.
Looking at the majestic ship, Huang Sheng turned his head to Li Canghai on a whim: "Are you interested in doing a long voyage?" ”
Li Canghai pointed to his nose in surprise and asked, "Me?" You let me go to sea with the ship? ”
Huang Shang said: "It's not for you to follow the boat to the sea, but to let you accompany me to the sea." ”
Li Canghai asked, "Do you want to go to sea?" ”
Huang Shang said: "The world is big, the outside world is even broader, and it's not interesting to stay at home." ”
Li Canghai said: "Have you ever been to sea?" ”
Huang Sheng shook his head and smiled: "No." ”
Li Canghai said: "Going to sea is not a simple matter, and there will be many unexpected dangers. ”
Huang Shang said: "How dangerous can it be?" And what dangers are unexpected? ”
Li Canghai looked at the confident yellow dress, also smiled and bent his eyebrows, and said, "It's good if you're not afraid." I've always loved to travel, and I'd like to thank you for helping me travel overseas. ”
Huang Sheng said: "You guys prepare again, I'll go home and say goodbye to my father." ”
Li Canghai immediately said: "I'll go back with you." ”
Huang Sheng shook his head and said, "No need, I will explain why you are 'Sister Li' when you go back like this." You're here to help me keep an eye on this big ship, don't have an accident before you go to sea, I'll go and get back quickly." ”
Li Canghai felt in his heart, such a dazzling big ship stopped there, I don't know how many people will speculate, if he doesn't go to sea for a day, it is estimated that he will not be at peace for a day.
Huang Sheng quickly returned to Huangjia Village in Yanping and met his father.
Huang Shang said: "Daddy, the third brother plans to do overseas trade, he has built a big ship to go to sea, I want to go out to see the scenery overseas." ”
At this time, the results of the test have been released, and unsurprisingly, Huang Shang fell off the list again, and Huang Patriarch was a little disappointed in this son. Looking at his smart son, he has no talent for reading, and he is helpless.
The patriarch of Huang knew that Huang Shang's cousin Huang Jinyuan had been building a ship recently, and he had taken away many children of the same clan in the village.
The Song Dynasty was different from the previous "anti-mercantilism" and adopted a "mercantilist" policy to encourage overseas trade, and Fujian was at the forefront. Therefore, Patriarch Huang is not disgusted with the younger generations of disciples doing business, as long as they can't study, doing business is a good way out, and it's not that if they can't study, they have to go home to farm.
It seems that his youngest son is really not an official, so it is okay to go to sea to see the world, he doesn't know that Huang Jinyuan is too specific about shipbuilding.
In his opinion, it is a very normal thing for Fujian people to go to sea, even if the Huang family did not have this business before. On the contrary, he attaches great importance to Huang Jinyuan, who can forge ahead, and can not stick to the original rules and regulations, and seeks a new path for the children of the Huang family.
Patriarch Huang said: "Go out and listen to your third brother's words, our Huang family has never done this before, learn more from other people's experience, don't be in a hurry." ”
If he saw the Huang family's big ship, he would know that the Huang family was in a hurry.
And after getting such a happy answer, Huang Sheng was also stunned, his father was not the kind of old pedant he thought he was, at least he thought that his father would not support them to do this kind of business, so that he still had a stomach full of rhetoric useless.
Patriarch Huang suddenly asked, "Why didn't Sister Li come back with you?" Does she go to sea with you too? ”
Huang Sheng was only slightly stunned, and immediately said: "She can't go out to sea, the sea is windy and rough, how can she stand it as a woman?" I have given her money and sent her back to her hometown to look for her relatives. ”
To explain clearly how Sister Li became Li Canghai, I have to say a lot more about Li Canghai, it's too troublesome, and it is the easiest to say that she is gone.
