Chapter 143: The Port is Built

Wuyi Port was originally a small ferry, some fishermen and hunters from Linjiang Town fish and hunt here all the year round, although they are not rich, but they can also fill their stomachs, but as soon as Huang Zhang's construction brigade came, it immediately changed the world.

The construction of Wuyi Port has made the fishing business that these fishermen rely on for their livelihood come to naught, and every day at the ferry, there are workers who come back and forth, and the fish are not at peace, and they begin to move away in large numbers, and every time the fishermen go out, they come back empty.

When the wharf was built, the trees were cut down from the surrounding area, and the originally dense mountain forest began to decrease day by day, and the hunters had to run farther and more dangerously to hunt.

This caused those who had made a living from fishing and hunting to complain and even stop the construction of the port.

However, after seeing a large number of soldiers with weapons in hand, they dismissed the idea of making trouble.

Not daring to make trouble does not mean that these people will not make trouble, the construction of the wharf has destroyed their fishing and hunting, and in retaliation, these fishermen and hunters have also begun to sabotage the wharf at night.

After Huang Zhang learned about this, he immediately rushed over to deal with it.

Of course, the way to deal with it is very simple, if the wharf is not repaired to destroy the lives of these fishermen and hunters, then call them over to work.

Huang Zhang's requisition of the people is not unconditional, and there are ten copper plates every day, although it is less, it is better than nothing, plus room and board, it can be said that it is very humane.

But these ten copper plates are already a high price for the locals, Linjiang Town has been closed since ancient times, and there is very little money circulation, not to mention this kind of large-scale construction, the local people can get ten copper plates and pack two meals a day, which is already grateful to Dade.

Of course, this is another reason why Huang Zhang has a lot of expenses, but this money has been paid in advance by Fan Li, on the condition that he can choose the site of Wuyi Port at will, and leave him a good place in Linjiang Town.

It is equivalent to selling land and power to Fan Li in exchange for his investment.

After the local fishermen and hunters in Wuyi Port joined, the construction was smoother, not to mention, the process was also accelerated a lot, the fishermen knew how to water, and made a lot of efforts in the construction of the wharf.

In this regard, Huang Zhang specially added ten more articles to them, which can be regarded as a reward.

After about a month of continuous construction works, the Wuyi Port Wharf began to take shape and began to accept ships.

On the second day of the opening of the dock, Fan Li did not say anything, and a fleet full of supplies began to dock.

Jixiang Chamber of Commerce became the first chamber of commerce to settle in Linjiang City.

As soon as the people of the Jixiang Chamber of Commerce came, Huang Zhang specially organized a huge welcome activity, which was regarded as cheering for the good start of Linjiang City.

This time it was an old man who led the Jixiang Chamber of Commerce, and I heard Fan Li say that this old man was the treasure of his Jixiang Chamber of Commerce, and now he is the housekeeper of the Chamber of Commerce, and almost all the accounts are handled by him.

The old man tied a bandage on one hand, got off the boat, saw Huang Zhang and Fan Li, and immediately came over to salute: "Old slave Fan Wenda, see His Royal Highness the Great Prince, the head of the family." ”

Hearing that the old man in front of him was also surnamed Fan, Huang Zhang suddenly asked curiously; "Fan Wenda? What is your relationship with Fan Li? ”

"The old slave was kidnapped by the barbarians when he was young, and it was the old lady Fan who rescued me and gave me the surname Fan."

Fan Li then added: "Uncle Wen has been doing things for our Fan family since my grandfather's generation, and there has not been a single mistake over the years, I would rather not believe in my son, and it is impossible not to believe in Uncle Wen." ”

"The head of the family has won the prize." Fan Wenda smiled slightly.

Hearing Fan Li's introduction, Huang Zhang understood why he said that this old man was his baby, from his grandfather to help, to his grandfather, to his father, and then to him, this has already sent away three generations, people are old and fine, this kind of person is really a baby.

No wonder Fan Li can have such a vision, behind which Fan Wenda's support is indispensable.

As soon as Fan Li's auspicious chamber of commerce landed, he directly settled in the auspicious inn he built and began to open to welcome guests.

However, there seems to be no one else except Huang Zhang, and Huang Zhang's entry does not cost money, which is equivalent to losing money and making money.

However, looking at Fan Li like this, there is no pain in the bleak business, on the contrary, he laughs all day long, and he has no worries at all.

"Your inn is not bad!" Huang Zhang said to Fan Li.

Since the opening of the auspicious inn, he has lived until now, and the experience is not bad, at least these waiters are very polite.

Of course, it is also because of his status as the eldest prince that these people are disrespectful.

"That's also a good opportunity given by His Royal Highness the Great Prince, otherwise I wouldn't be able to cultivate it!"

"Haha!" Huang Zhang smiled, "But you see that no one has come to this inn now, the business is very miserable, and everyone up and down in your chamber of commerce has to be counted, and you can't lose money to death for a day." ”

When Fan Li heard this, she didn't care.

"Your Highness is too worried, as long as this war is over, I guarantee that this Wuyi Port will become the busiest place in Sunan."

Fan Li said this, Huang Zhang naturally believed that this was the purpose of why he wanted to build such a big port, but what Huang Zhang wanted to ask, Fan Li obviously didn't hear it.

"Does your Jixiang Chamber of Commerce have any assets in Danyang County?" Huang Zhang asked suddenly.

As soon as she said this, Fan Li was a little curious.

"The business scope of our Jixiang Chamber of Commerce is only in Tianfu County, but Danyang County is not involved, I don't know why His Highness is asking this?"

I saw Huang Zhang give the girl a look, and the latter immediately said; "I've checked, the Jixiang Chamber of Commerce has not done much business in Wucheng over the years, and because of some unknown reasons, it is still shrinking its strength, and when it comes to your generation, Jixiang Chamber of Commerce also has a little industry in Wucheng, and in general, it is also depressed and dilapidated, and it is difficult to maintain."

Fan Li heard that the girl was silently touching his auspicious chamber of commerce, and suddenly broke out in a cold sweat.

As soon as these words came out, Rao was stupid and knew Huang Zhang's intentions.

If you want to blame him, you can only blame him for not being able to hold his breath, Fan Wenda has reminded him many times not to be too public, but in order to seize the opportunity, he still showed his feet.

At this time, Huang Zhang spoke again: "I want to ask President Fan, your Jixiang Chamber of Commerce is already in the wane, and it stands to reason that it is difficult to operate, but President Fan has met twice and made extraordinary moves every time, how can this be explained?" ”

Hearing this, Fan Li broke out in a cold sweat, he knew that Huang Zhang could ask this question at the moment, it must have been that he had already been thoroughly touched before revealing his hole cards.

Seeing that the situation was like this, Fan Li didn't hide it anymore.

He wiped the cold sweat from his forehead, sat directly on the chair, and said straight to the point: "Since Your Highness has begun to doubt me, then there is no point in me making up stories, I will tell Your Highness the truth, if you want to kill or chop, let it be disposed of!" ”
