Chapter 1103: I Can't Afford It

At the same time that Gaojia Village is determined to forge ahead in the southwest region.

The former governor of Shaanxi practiced state affairs, and finally came to Nanjing after a long trip, plus some entry procedures, finding a house, moving to a new home, and other messy things.

It's time to go to work!

Walking into the "office" of the household department, Lian Guoshi immediately felt the kind of "ah, there is another unlucky egg" kind of bad eyes cast by the officialdom.

The Lian State Affairs Regiment made a circle: "Hello everyone, I am practicing state affairs, and I will serve here as the left waiter of the household department in the future, and I would like to ask you for more advice." ”

"Oh!" An official who was reading a book responded: "I'm the right waiter, let's one left and one right, hum two generals, and cooperate well in the future." ”

There was nothing wrong with what he said, but his eyes were still looking at the book in his hand, and he didn't even raise his eyebrows, obviously his attention was not on practicing state affairs at all.

Lian Guoshi secretly glanced at the title of the book in the man's hand, and the cover was printed with "Shooting Surprise", which is a vernacular text that has only become popular in the past ten years.

It's time to work! This is actually what the right waiter does?

Lian Guoshi wanted to vomit, and immediately heard someone behind a table not far away greet him: "I am the Hubu Shangshu, Lian Daren, I have admired the name for a long time, although you are the left waiter, I am the Shangshu, but let's not engage in those vulgar etiquette of superiors and subordinates, let's two brothers, play together." ”

Practicing state affairs only heard its voice, but did not see its person, Daqi, hurriedly bypassed the table in the middle, glanced back, and saw a person who was not wearing an official uniform, but wearing a Taoist robe, was opening a huge piece of paper on the ground, he was lying on the paper, holding a pen to draw.

Drawing during work hours? This is what the dignified household department Shangshu does?

Glancing at other officials, or writing, or drawing, or humming songs, drinking tea......

Lian Guoshi has long heard that the Sixth Department of Nanjing is used for the elderly, and when I saw it with my own eyes, I knew what kind of atmosphere it was here.

Lian Guoshi: "Everyone, are we so idle in the household department?" ”

Tobe Shangshu happily drew another stroke on the paper, seemed to be very satisfied with his painting, and said without raising his head: "There's nothing to do, Master Lian, you are a newcomer, you must be a little hardworking." This is understandable, when I came to the household department to serve as Shangshu, I was much more excited than you. But...... Heck, I can't find anything to do. If you don't believe it, just try it, you can do whatever you want, and we won't get in your way anyway. ”

Practicing State Affairs: "......"

Do whatever you want to do, right? That's what you said.

Lian Guoshi laughed hesitantly and looked through the information of the household department.

Soon he found out that there were things related to Gaojia Village in the materials......

Near Nanhui Fangcheng, there is a new market, which is recorded by the household department as "Nanhuizui Maritime Market", and now that place has slowly become an important place where the north and south meet.

Inland goods transported from the Yellow River and the Yangtze River, as well as trade goods from the sea, converge here in large quantities. The Ming people, Westerners, and Nanyang people are trading here, and they are quietly chasing after Quanzhou Port.

However, Nanhuizui is not a good place to build a port wharf, the coastline there is not a natural harbor, and the sea is very shallow and easy to run aground...... Merchants were looking for a better place to moor their boats.

Lian Guoshi looked through the information, and he already had a clear idea in his heart.

The so-called businessmen are actually the people of Gaojia Village, and they want to find a better port.

Because Zhoushan Dinghai Port is developed as a military port, of course, it also needs a commercial port, and this commercial port is obviously better in Shanghai than on Zhoushan Island.

Hmph, the first thing I have to do when I come here should be to help Tianzun and his old man get a decent trading port, so that the ships of Gaojia Village, the ships of the Westerners, and the ships of the Nanyangs can easily dock and trade here.

In the words of Tianzun, we must learn to cut foreign leeks.

Okay, you can do it if you want.

Lian Guoshi took away the information about Nanhuizui and put it on his desk, so that it would not be noticed by other officials, but ...... It seems that it doesn't matter if this group of garbage notices, no one wants to take care of it at all.

Lian Guoshi suddenly found that it was good to work with a group of waste, no one would come to drag him back, and he could do whatever he wanted-

Huangpu River, Shanghai Port, Daming Water Division Camp.

Su Song guarded Cui Weihua and was inspecting his fleet.

That's right, fleet!

A few years ago, Cui Weihua clearly remembered that his troops were 402 militiamen, 400 Zhejiang soldiers, 1,003 sailors, 7 Fujian Cangshan boats, 30 sand boats, 5 pulp boats, and 16 bluffing boats.

Among his bunch of ships, only the Cangshan ship is slightly larger, which is a decent warship, and the others are all broken ships that are too small to see.

The combat effectiveness is pitifully weak.

But now, as he counted, he felt that something was wrong.

There were 20 Junk ships and 18 Zhuyin ships, all of which were not smaller than his Cangshan ships, and there were also various small cargo ships, armed merchant ships, and the total number of troubled ships was as much as 200.

This can already be called a "superfleet".

Cui Weihua picked his head: "I have so many boats?" When was there one? ”

The subordinate reported: "On the xth day of the xth month, Lord Shi Kefa's men gave you five small boats from the Huangmei Water Thieves. ”

"On the xth day of the xth month of the year, the imperial merchant Iron Bird flew and gave you four junk ships captured from the pirates."

"On the xth day of the xth year, the emperor and the iron bird flew and gave you five ships of vermilion that were captured from the pirates of the Japanese Kingdom."

“……”

Cui Weihua usually didn't count, and when he received the gifted boat, he happily ordered the sailors to take over and practice, but now when he counts the whole thing, he finds that the situation is not quite right.

Cui Weihua: "With so many boats, can we afford to raise them?" ”

The subordinates wiped a handful of sweat: "Lord Cui, my subordinates are trying to talk to you about this, there are too many ships, and we are about to run out of food." We only have so many sailors, and as the number of ships increases, we have to send sailors to each ship, which makes our sailors greatly insufficient. ”

"In addition, when each ship is delivered, we need to repair and tidy it up, and it also costs a lot of money."

"Again, every once in a while, we have to remove barnacles and other things from the bottom of the boat. In the past, there were few boats, and the sailors could solve it casually, but now there are so many boats that we can't clean them up, and several of the ships are already crawling with barnacles. ”

Cui Weihua: "!! ”

This meow!

As soon as he finished speaking, a subordinate ran over and said loudly: "Report, the new Zuo Shilang of the household department is here to practice state affairs, and he said that he wants to come to inspect the situation on the beach." ”
