Therefore, for these sea ships, Lin Fengjin only has two requirements for them, the first is to listen to the command at sea, and the second is to share the sacrifice to the river god according to the cost, to be honest, these two requirements are taken for granted, and no one raises any objections.

After saying that it is on the sea, the benefits of inviting these demon pythons will quickly appear, you must know that the road is that this is a world with magical powers and monsters, especially in the sea, it is even more dangerous, and it is necessary to rely on them to lead the way, far away from those terrifying sea existences, and the demon python can sense the coming of the sea storm several days in advance.

Not only that, after the python five swallowed the demon organs in the body of the two giant flies in a row, the magic power of the Dao was greatly increased, and it even dared to swim into the deep sea to sense the existence of the current, and then let the ship go to the current, with the help of the current, even when encountering headwinds, the fleet can sail at an amazing speed.

And the habits of snakes are also very special, they have an amazing appetite and the way to store energy, after a giant python is full, it can often be eaten for months without eating, these demon pythons are also the same, under their day and night guidance, although this season is not the best season for smooth sailing, and there are several merchant ships are not suitable for sea transport and some conditions, a group of people still only took seven days to cross the coastline boundary of half of the South Zheng and the entire Zhongtang Dynasty, came to the territory of the Northern Qi Dynasty, and there was no loss of merchant ships！

You must know that in the eyes of some old businessmen, this can only be described as a miracle, and it is definitely not just Lin Fengjin who is a smart person in this world. There have long been people who have been thinking about sea freight, and a fleet of such a size will set sail. Even if it's just a shallow sea, the chances of a condition are at least 50 percent! It's not the wind and waves, it's more that there is a threat in those terrifying seas, if there is no escort of the demon python, it can be said that it is a loss-making transaction by sea.

After coming to the territory of Northern Qi, Lin Fengjin had already made preparations, and the place they chose to stop was called Wantian County, which can be called a poor and remote land, and at least four-fifths of the land in the county is saline-alkali land, dry and barren under the blowing of the sea breeze.

Needless to say. The people here are also miserable, and the county magistrate of Wantian County is not an outsider, but a disciple of Mr. Yangming's disciple named Xu Kang, who is quite good in terms of talent and virtue, and Lin Fengjin is also very good to talk to.

When he was in Donglin Academy before, Lin Fengjin heard that Xu Kang was a Jinshi, and when he was in the right prelude, he said that he was unwilling to enter a noble place like Hanlin Academy, but was willing to go down to do something practical, and the monarch was quite appreciative at that time. But Xu Kang's words may have touched the sensitive nerves of some people, so the officials simply sent Xu Kang to such a place where birds don't, and asked him to do more practical things, of course, with the idea of watching jokes.

After taking office, Xu Kang felt sincerely difficult. The officials in the yamen deceived him for his youth, and the local environment was uniquely poor, which almost completely emptied him. However, Xu Kang also gritted his teeth and first collected evidence to refresh the rule of officials. After taking down several treacherous officials and punishing them, he killed several people. The interior has finally settled down, but the saline ground has always been a big problem. So he has achieved nothing in improving people's livelihood.

The last time Mr. Yang Ming was on his birthday, Xu Kang and Lin Fengjin talked very speculatively, so they talked about this matter, but although Lin Fengjin had no way to transform the saline-alkali land, he had more insight based on the experience of his previous life, so he made a suggestion to Xu Kang:

Goji berries can at least grow in most of the saline-alkali land, and it is also a perennial shrub, planting once can benefit for many years, wolfberry is quite good whether it is used as a medicine or a fruit, the young leaves of wolfberry are copied in boiling water, and then squeeze out the bitter water, whether it is mixed or fried can be eaten as a vegetable, and can be promoted and planted.

In addition, Lin Fengjin also suggested planting another plant in the saline-alkali land, although this plant can not be eaten directly, but because its branches and leaves contain quite high salt, so the livestock like it very much, and the roots of the shuttle will have a very precious herb Cistanche to grow, which is also a great compensation.

Xu Kang listened to Lin Fengjin's suggestion, and after some investigation, he found that what he said was indeed right, so he promoted it in the whole county, the villagers in this place are so poor that they clanged, and Xu Kang took office to refresh the rule of officials, and also drilled twenty deep wells in the county to improve people's livelihood, which is already very prestigious, at this time Xu Kang ordered to promote the planting of these two plants on the useless saline-alkali land, at this time the credibility of the government is still very high, and everyone responds.

As a result, after the large-scale promotion of planting, the effect of the second year came out, the young leaves and shoots of wolfberry as a brand new vegetable, the villagers are full of praise, and so on in June of that year, you can harvest wolfberry in batches, and you can harvest it until November, and wolfberry is also very easy to preserve after drying, so it has become an important economic source for the villagers. Even if it can't be sold, it can be used to satisfy the stomach, so Xu Kang's prestige has increased again.

However, the promotion effect of Suosuo is not so immediate, fortunately, with the example of wolfberry in front, Xu Kang's prestige has reached the peak in the county, and there is no strange thing for the people to say. However, for the residents of Wantian County, their living standards have changed from abject poverty (barely surviving, often starving every month) to poverty (subsistence and occasional starvation every year), Xu Kang still felt dissatisfied, so he begged Lin Feng to think of some solutions.

At this time, Lin Fengjin had already begun to lay out the route for the north-south shipping, and told him that there was still a way, but Wantian County had to build a large port in a suitable place near the sea. Xu Kang listened to Lin Fengjin's words, gritted his teeth, and called on the people to level the land during the slack time, make a simple port, and do a series of preliminary work.

Lin Fengjin sailed here with this fleet this time, and a few demon pythons in Zhilu Dao were also at the limit, and people were about to get off the boat to rest, so they directly chose to dock at the port sorted out in Wantian County, and at the same time docked to notify the officials to come over, first, to replenish it, and secondly, to pay taxes according to the rules - Obviously, Zheng Lin Fengjin in the Tang Dynasty is estimated to have no way to stay, which means that Lin Fengjin will be in Northern Qi for a long time in the future, so it is better to be honest and law-abiding.

Lin Feng took the lead in paying the tax, and the rest of the merchants didn't have anything to say, obviously, even if he paid a tax on Shangmao on the departure, and he also paid a tax at the port where Wantian docked, it only added up to two times, compared to the previous time when he went to the outside of the Saiwai to pass through the many checkpoints and had to pay more than ten taxes, it was really completely described as heaven.

After hearing the good news, the county commander Xu Kang was already smiling from ear to ear, and came directly with Hu Cao, who collected taxes. As soon as the final tax was collected, Xu Kang was already satisfied with the figures, and he found that as long as this fleet made five or six trips a year, the county's financial revenue would almost double! And the tax paid this time was enough to smooth out the deficit pulled down by the finishing port.

Lin Fengjin first pointed out that although the port of Wantian County is an excellent deep-water port, but the various facilities are too simple, Xu Kang said that it must be improved, and the people will be mobilized to strengthen it quickly tomorrow, and secondly, Lin Fengjin hopes that Xu Kang can help quickly collect a batch of pigs, sheep, horses, donkeys, chickens, ducks and other livestock.

Originally, this request was quite embarrassing, but after Xu Kang heard that the price that Lin Feng was willing to offer was actually three times the market price, he decisively asked the official to do it.

After these two official matters were discussed, the two finally began to talk about personal friendship, Xu Kang promised that if Lin Fengjin could bring people to run seven times a year, then the commercial tax levied on the Lin family could be 50% off, and the long-term caravan could be 8% off.

Xu Kang was stunned for a while, he was shocked that the price difference of this goods was so amazing, you must know that the selling price of wolfberries here is usually even in the most prosperous June, at most it is always three quintals, but Jiangnan is nine quintals of money!

The profit in this is more than 20 times worse back and forth, and what is even more outrageous is that after August, the north is originally the wolfberry production area, and the wolfberry produced here can only be eaten or fed to pigs, and it can't be sold!

When Xu Xianzun was wondering, at this time, someone came to the front to communicate, saying that the owners of three ships wanted to ask the county to open a dump for storing goods here, and they planned to unload the goods here, and then notify the merchants who were familiar with each other in the state city to come to see the goods and buy, and at the same time ask the county to give them a road guide, because they heard that the local specialty is wolfberry, if there is a road guide, it is convenient for them to go to the countryside to purchase.

At that time, the household registration system was very strict, and many people would not be more than a hundred miles away from home until they died, and when they encountered strangers entering Zhuangzi, as long as they were not a merchant or something, the lieutenant would go to interrogate them, and if something was wrong, they would be taken as thieves, not to mention that these merchants were still foreigners from Nanzheng?
