"Dongfan Reclamation? Are you interested in participating in the reclamation? Feng Ziying couldn't help but ask more.

"No, no, my lord misunderstood, we just want to understand the strategy of Dongfan Reclamation, well, what considerations does the imperial court have for Dongfan Reclamation,......" Wang Jiuyu stammered, and the beads of sweat on his forehead couldn't help but seep out.

Feng Ziying is even more strange, she didn't come for reclamation, but she wanted to ask about the reclamation of Dongfan, but why was this?

His eyes fell on the other party, Feng Ziying's expression became deeper and deeper, and Wang Jiuyu's scalp was numb, and he couldn't help but say: "My lord, we are all salt-eaters, where do we know what to reclaim, Longyou and Anfu are the merchants who are experts in this area, hehe,......"

Feng Ziying suddenly came back to her senses, her eyes were as sharp as a sword, and she nodded slowly: "I see, you guys have taken a fancy to Dongfan's salt affairs?" ”

Wang Jiuyu's majestic body shook slightly, and his expression was a little strange, but in the end he sighed and nodded: "My lord Mingjian, we have been doing this for generations, and we have been forced to leave our hometowns except for starvation,......

"Hmph, Wang Jiuyu, are you threatening this official?" Feng Ziying snorted lightly.

"No, no, the little one is speechless, the little one just wants to say that now our gang is desperate, and we also want to find a suitable place, since the imperial court intends to reclaim Dongfan, then Dongfan is now also a wild place, if the imperial court allows, we are also willing to take the lead for the imperial court,......" Wang Jiuyu carefully considered his words while observing the change in Feng Ziying's expression.

"Take the lead for the imperial court, Wang Jiuyu, you and a group of people under you have such good intentions?" Feng Ziying laughed loudly and shook her head again and again, "Reclamation of Dongfan is indeed a purpose of this official's coming to the south, and you are also well-informed, and you actually know that this official intends to let Longyou and Anfu merchants do it first, and you also want to go to Dongfan to reclaim, but not to help the imperial court reclaim land and resettle landless people, I'm afraid you want to occupy this market first, right?" ”

Feng Ziying was also observing this guy while thinking about the other party's intentions.

"But this has to be reclaimed, and the market for this part of the Dongfan salt industry is of little significance in three or five years, and it will take at least one or two decades to reach a prefecture like Ningguo or Guangde, right? You're going to take a fancy to this? ”

Wang Jiuyu was silent, Feng Ziying's eagle-like gaze locked on the other party, and said slowly: "This Dongfan Salt City is meaningless in a short period of time, so what else can you guys who rely on salt to eat, what else can you plan to do, apart from the salt farm?" ”

Wang Jiuyu was shocked, the other party was really powerful, he could figure out so many things in just one stick of incense, and he directly made his purpose clear.

"As far as this official knows, Dongfan is close to the first line of Penghu, the terrain is low and flat, the climate is dry in winter, the sunshine hours are long, it is the natural salt where the salt is, and the rivers in the area are scarce, and the rain time is not much, the salinity of the seawater along the coast is higher than that of other places, and the salt yield is better than that of Changlu and Lianghuai, and the quality of salt is also higher. It's a good idea. ”

Wang Jiuyu's face turned pale, the biggest secret was actually casually told by the other party, and he knew it even more detailed and accurate than what the people on his side knew!?

Could it be that someone leaked the news?

No way!

Even he only knew that the southwest corner of Dongfan, near Penghu, was flat, and the sun was poisonous in winter, which was suitable for drying salt, but he didn't know what the nearby sea water had higher salt content and less rain.

Feng Ziying knew that she had guessed it when she saw the other party's expression.

Budai Salt Farm, the most important salt field in Taiwan in later generations, is known as China's three major salt farms along with Changlu and Yinggehai, and is known for its good quality.

However, although the conditions of the Budai Salt Farm are superior, it was not developed until the Qianlong period in the previous life, mainly because of the problem of reclamation and population, but now, it seems that he can make this history earlier.

If it weren't for this guy to remind himself, he really didn't think that there was a cloth bag salt field in Dongfan.

Because in later generations, this salt field is really not very important, let alone a financial pillar, but in this era, for the current imperial court, this is simply a cornucopia, and of course it can be sold for a good price.

had a big heart, but Feng Ziying still had a smile on her face, as if she was laughing at the other party, thinking that she didn't know about this situation, which made Wang Jiuyu even more worried.

This guy is really a man with fortune, and he actually brought himself such a new way all of a sudden.

"Your Excellency, you already knew?" The expression on Wang Jiuyu's face changed, and it took a long time before he said with a slight bitterness.

"Wang Jiuyu, this official specially added this reclamation to the east in the strategy of opening the sea, you don't think that this official just asked Longyou and Anfu merchants to settle some displaced people in the east and expand the land and reclaim the wasteland, right?" Feng Ziying was full of words, "If this official is not a little sure, how dare he suggest to the imperial court?" It's just that I didn't expect you to be able to fight the idea of Dongfanyan District. ”

Wang Jiuyu swallowed a mouthful of saliva, and said with some difficulty: "What does the adult mean that this Dongfan Salt Farm has already been booked?" ”

"Not really." Feng Ziying shook her head and said very casually: "Dongfan is in ruins, the reclamation involves all aspects, and the official has only just had some general ideas, but this salt farm must be the top priority, and there is no room for failure, and you should also know that there are many mountain people on Dongfan Island, if it is an ordinary salt merchant, the official is to give him this license, can he have fun?" Don't salt didn't give me two stones, I gave my life away, and the death of others was small, and it delayed the major event of Dongfan reclamation, and that was the big thing! ”

"Yes, yes, yes! What the adults said is very true, the mountain people on Dongfan Island are very fierce, and the government must not have so much energy to take care of many in ordinary times, if ordinary businessmen want to develop salt farms, then they will definitely have to conflict with the mountain people, and then delay the great cause of the adults to reclaim Dongfan, then there is no redemption, and you have to find one or two people who have some experience in this area and some manpower, so as to ensure that this development is safe,......"

Wang Jiuyu thought that his family was running empty, but he didn't expect that the matter of this salt field was still inconclusive, and looking at this one meant that it had to be a little force to be able to eat this job, and his heart immediately moved.

Some of them are outlaws who eat this bowl of rice, smuggling salt dealers, dealing with the inspection department and the town army of the local health office all day long, and many times they inevitably have to use force, all of which are playing with their heads.

And the people behind him have connections and silver, the combination of the two, plus this Dongfan salt field, isn't this a match made in heaven?

"Wang Jiuyu, you are quite good at talking, dare to love this Dongfan Salt Farm, only you Wang Jiuyu can do it?" Feng Ziying laughed.

"The adults laughed, the small ones just want to say, please give the adults a chance for the small, well, not only the small ones, but also some other people, they are all extremely optimistic about the development of the big plan of the adults to reclaim the east, and they are also willing to do their part for the development of the imperial court, so please also give us a chance, we will be unforgettable in the future,......"

Seeing that Wang Jiuyu said sincerely, Feng Ziying was silent for a moment, and then said: "Wang Jiuyu, have you ever known that the development of Dongfan reclamation is not a trivial matter, and the unpredictable risks mentioned by the official before are only one aspect, maybe you will only know the hot ,......hand when you take on this job."

"Adults can rest assured, life and death are rich and noble, since they have eaten this bowl of rice, the little one does not take this life seriously, and it is possible that the roof beam will collapse and crush people to death when sleeping at home, and the bowl of rice in this world can be earned by sitting at home?" Wang Jiujiu's words were quite simple.

"Well, you can see it, in this case, do you understand, the specific situation of this Dongfan salt field? It is estimated that you should have explored, but you may not understand it carefully, this official suggests that on the one hand, you quickly arrange someone to go to Dongfan to find professionals to survey the salt field and the salt drying situation, on the other hand, you also need to come to talk to the official who speaks effectively, Wang Jiuyu, such a big profit, you don't think that you can hand it over to you with a few words, right? You all know that the court is in a difficult situation now, do you understand what this official means? ”

Wang Jiuyu generally nodded again and again, "The little one understands, the little one understands, it's just ......"

Seeing that Wang Jiuyu's face was a little weird, Feng Ziying chuckled, "What, is there anything else you can't say?" Although, the official is not to blame. ”

"Thank you, Lord Grace, well, the adult also knows that the small one is just the one who came to the front to play the front station, uh, some words have to be relayed back, well, the small one wants to ask for an approximate number, and it is good to have an explanation when you go back,......" Wang Jiuyu said these words with difficulty, but his eyes were full of expectation.

Feng Ziying laughed, her fingers lightly tapping on the table, "You don't ask this question smartly, then you should ask what you want?" Dongfan is the place where the imperial court opened the sea, the early development investment is certainly not small, the imperial court in addition to the daily jurisdiction, and has no intention of getting involved, well, or to put it bluntly, the imperial court can directly assign the salt field to you to develop, both to you one, you can also give a few, how big the area is, it is estimated that you should be clear, then it depends on your bid, in addition, you can sell salt by yourself, but you can not sell it into the territory of the Great Zhou, you can also sell it into the Great Zhou, such as Nanzhi, Zhejiang or Huguang, Jiangxi, but this needs to be carefully discussed, in a word, I am afraid that the price of each condition is different, do you understand? ”

Seeing that Wang Jiuyu had some understanding, Feng Ziying added: "Since I can let you come, I guess you also have some consideration in this regard, if you are a person who has no strength, it is estimated that you will not dare to come to touch this business, in this way, the official will give you a month, and within a month, the official will have to talk to the official in detail, and after a month, the official may have to make other arrangements." ”
