Chapter 180: A new Qingdao
After a few more days, the fleets returned one after another.
Different from the pain when he left, when he returned, everyone's faces were full of smiles, and they were invited to go to the Qinglou to have a good time.
Qingdao, the garrison of the Changning Army.
In order to facilitate the office, Zhang Yun directly moved the office location to Qingdao.
Due to the addition of the Changning Army and the influx of traders in the city, this Qingdao gradually formed a small bazaar.
Houses have sprung up everywhere, and Zhang Yun is happy to see this.
At this time, Zhang Yun was lying on the chair leisurely, listening to Han Cheng's report on the recent harvest.
"A total of 20,000 taels of silver were harvested from this flag sale, plus Zhang Long's filial piety, a total of 60,000 taels, and 150,000 taels were harvested from the extermination of pirates, and we earned 210,000 taels this time."
Han Cheng's voice trembled a little at the end.
Zhang Yun smiled and nodded, he was still extremely satisfied with this number.
"My lord, it would be better for us to bring some goods and go to sell them than to watch them get rich here." Zhao Hu watched the merchants in the city make a fortune and said eagerly.
I'm afraid that it will be too late, and they will run out of money on this sea.
Zhang Yun smiled: "Hahaha... Don't worry, it will, it will. ”
Then he said to Han Cheng: "I asked you to go to Jiangnan to buy a ship, has the matter been done?" ”
"It's all done, and it's estimated that they're all on their way back now."
"Well, when they arrive, let's buy some goods and sell them too."
"So you planned it a long time ago?" Zhao Hu exclaimed.
"Hahaha......" The two looked at Zhao Hu's stupid appearance and laughed.
After a long time, the laughter subsided.
The first time Zhang Yun did this, he forgot to collect taxes, and he felt a pain in his flesh, so he called Shen Lian.
"My lord, are you looking for me?" Shen Lian leaned in from outside the door and asked respectfully.
"You go find a few more people, let them verify the merchant's goods, and every time you go to sea, you will give me a hundred percent of their money."
When Shen Lian heard this, he said with a little embarrassment: "My lord, is one of ten taxes too high?" ”
Even Han Cheng and Zhao Hu frowned slightly when they heard this number, this number was indeed a bit much.
Zhang Yun chuckled lightly and said slowly: "Don't worry, they will definitely make money, and the profit is not only several times, but they can also raise the price." ”
Although Shen Lian was a little hesitant, Zhang Yun's orders had to be followed.
After finding seven or eight good players, he blocked the dock and began to investigate.
Qingdao wharf.
The blocked merchants were extremely angry, and at this time they were emotional, so they asked Zhang Yun to give an explanation.
"We paid for the flag, why pay again?"
"Yes, what about Chang Ningbo? Let him out. ”
"Our profits are already small, and now we can make money if we take another 10%."
“......”
"Difficult? Then don't do it. Suddenly, a voice was heard not far away.
Everyone looked for prestige, and saw Zhang Yun walking over with Han Cheng and Zhao Hu.
"Your Excellency." Shen Lian respectfully bowed his hand.
Zhang Yun smiled at him, then looked at the businessman who had provoked trouble before, and said coldly: "If you think you can't make money, you will never be reluctant." ”
"Han Cheng! Register his name for me and confiscate his flag. ”
"Order!"
Han Cheng was about to take away the merchant's flag.
"Changning Bo spare his life, spare his life, I will pay it, can't I pay it back?" Seeing that Zhang Yun was angry, the merchant hurriedly begged for mercy.
obediently delivered the silver taels, and then went to sea.
The surrounding merchants saw that the first bird was soft, and they didn't dare to confront Zhang Yun.
They calculated that there was still a lot of profit in it, so after happily delivering the silver taels, they sailed towards the sea.
The merchants on the docks gradually dispersed, and Shen Lian's work became idle.
Zhang Yun said to Shen Lian Zhengse: "You have to remember that there are many people staring at your position. ”
"Don't you get away with them."
Shen Lian hurriedly knelt down and said, "Don't worry, the villain will definitely live up to the expectations of the adult." ”
"Good! I hope you remember today's words. Zhang Yun patted him on the shoulder, then turned to leave.
After leaving the dock, Zhang Yun took Zhao Hu and the others straight to a restaurant in Qingdao, which was not so much a restaurant as a small stall.
The boss was an old man of about fifty years old, and his face was full of wrinkles, but he was happy to see everyone.
The helpers are his son and daughter-in-law, and of course his little granddaughter.
"Boss, bring me any good wine and food." After Zhao Hu sat down, he immediately yelled at the boss.
"A few guest officers, why don't you have some yellow croaker, it's all fresh, my son and they went to sea yesterday to call."
Zhang Yun smiled and nodded, and the boss smiled and went inside, asking someone to kill the fish.
After about ten minutes, a few dishes were served.
"Dry roasted small yellow croaker, steamed small yellow croaker, steamed large yellow croaker......"
After Zhang Yun saw it, his head was big for a while, and he secretly slandered in his heart: "I let you go fish, I didn't let you only fish." ”
However, he stretched out his chopsticks, picked out a piece of fish, and put it in his mouth, instantly changing his opinion.
This fish meat is indeed delicious and abnormal, and different methods have different flavors, which fully release Zhang Yun's taste buds.
Zhao Hu, a gourmet, how could he let go of this kind of food, Zhang Yun and Zhao Hu quickly finished the food.
"Boss, check out." Zhang Yun shouted with a smile.
The old man walked over, looked at it, and said with a smile: "A total of 800 Wen." ”
Zhang Yun touched it for a long time, took out an ingot of ten taels of silver and handed it to the boss, the boss saw it, and hurriedly said, "My lord, this can't be found." ”
"Don't look for it, just give me a few more yellow croakers and let me take them back."
The boss was also generous, and directly gave the rest of the yellow croaker to Zhang Yun.
The two began to make small talk.
"Uncle, you can make a lot of money, right?" Zhang Yun asked with a smile.
"If you can make some money, before our fish were all for fishmongers, and most of the income went to others."
"It's still my son, who said he wanted to come here to open a stall and sell his own fish, and now he can make more money than before." The old man smiled, his face full of pride.
Zhang Yun nodded and said with a smile: "Is there anyone who is here to make trouble?" ”
The old man shook his head and chuckled: "They don't dare, Lord Shen sent people to patrol around, if someone makes trouble, no matter who it is, they will arrest him." ”
Speaking of Shen Lian, a smile appeared on the old man's face.
"It seems that Shen Lian has done a good job." Zhang Yun said secretly in his heart.
Then he didn't linger anymore, and smiled at the boss: "Uncle, then I'll go first, and you will be busy." ”
After that, he took Han Cheng and Zhao Hu towards his station.
On the way, looking at the faint candlelight in Qingdao, Zhang Yun couldn't help but have a faint smile on his face.
