Chapter 30 Making a Living
Unlike Anping, Yin Chu's personal freedom is higher, and he is stared at less. Donghanhai, presided over by Shi Danai, is currently shouldering the heavy responsibility of accumulating resources in addition to mixing sand for the western Liaoxi tribes.
In fact, last year, Uncle Zhang gave Li Dong a book, basically saying that he wanted to kill Goguryeo with one shot, which is basically unlikely. However, as the most capable emperor, Li Dong has never lacked his adventurous spirit, so after killing the Turks, Li Dong pondered: Why don't I gamble big?
It's not impossible to go up and make Goguryeo history. With this yield ratio, it's worth the risk.
Therefore, in the Liaodong strategy, since the emperor set the tone, everything is very radical. Besides, God knows why the Khitan tribes suddenly became brainless and saved how many things in Hebei Province? Even Zhang Gongjin, as the governor of Dingxiang Prefecture, felt very incredible......
In short, the situation of the Northland clans is somewhat of a Heavenly Mandate suit for Li Dong.
Zhang De is looking for Yin Chu, and it is not all about hugging, hugging, kissing, and then popping and mating, as the nominal signboard of Donghanhai, Yin Chu can bypass Shi Danai to engage in smuggling and will not be caught.
In addition, unlike Shi Danai, Yin Chu is Zhang De's own person, not only the degree of heart-to-heart, but also the ability to communicate between spirit and body. So with some calculations, Lao Zhang naturally had to talk to this Turkic horse.
"These ...... It's all shipbuilding wood? ”
"There are not many savings, and these three warehouses are all newly built." Zhang De pointed to several timber warehouses at the floating dock, which were the warehouses of the China Resources. Qu Tuquan deliberately dug a ditch to prevent a small thief from coming to make trouble.
These timbers are used to make keels, and they should be used together. It was two years later, and now it can't be processed as wood at all.
A few ships launched in Suzhou a while ago, they were all timber stored by Zhang De the year before last, and then a galleon of about 75 tons, and the construction period was 18 months. Such galleons are not just for freight, but Zhang De is preparing in advance for the possible loading of artillery on ships in the future.
The year of Zhenguan is different from 1,500 years later. Fifteen hundred years later, it was people and other people, and now, it is all equipment and other people. There is a shortage of labor in various places. Hedong even used all the Turkic slaves, and there was no way to fully develop the land, so you can imagine the situation in Jiangnan Province, Huainan Province, Jiangnan Province.
"The newly-made big ship is slightly different from the sharp-bottomed ship, with dense keels. to resist wind and waves. ”
However, in reality, the sharp-bottomed boat is more resistant to sinking. After all, the water trap has been used for many years, the technology is mature, and the shipwrights are extremely fast in shipbuilding. Often, a thousand-stone ship, that is, seven or eight months, can be completely perfected, and can run the Yangtze River from Suzhou to Xiangfan and other places.
"It turns out that so much wood is used to build a ship." Yin Chu was stunned for a moment, and then said in astonishment, "No wonder you want so much wood." The Goguryeo people are willing to sell, isn't it a long-term deal? ”
Wood manufacturing shipbuilding industry. It will trigger the demand for marine timber for a certain period of time. Moreover, according to Zhang De's estimate, in two years at most, after the quantity and quality of sailors increase, the three major fleets can cover the entire western Pacific Ocean. At that time, the income will be able to completely flatten the shipbuilding deficit of the previous ten years in one year.
In terms of the price-to-earnings ratio, it is definitely a windfall profit within a profiteering.
And Zhang De believes that for a long time, Hebei Province, Henan Province, Huainan Province, Jiangnan Province, will form a very strange timber standard system.
Of course, with the further prosperity of the shipbuilding industry and the further development of maritime trade, this phenomenon will naturally disappear, and it will be replaced by a normal state of hard currency.
"Ah Lang, if you build so many ships, can you recover the capital? I am in Jizhou, and I have heard that the wages of the workshop have been consistent and half or even two. I look at the shipyard here, I'm afraid that it doesn't cost hundreds of craftsmen for one ship......"
After all, Yin Chu is a Turkic nobleman, and he is the princess of the two core groups, so he can naturally see how huge the investment in this is.
Zhang De led her to walk on the outer embankment of the Sanzhou timber warehouse, and then smiled while walking: "A boat is about 300 craftsmen, half of which I bought from Xiao's, and Suzhou craftsmen come here, most of them are not adapted to the water and soil, and they can only be in the Denglai area." ”
"Shhh...... Ah Lang still has a shipyard in Denglai? ”
"One day, when Liaodong is conquered, it should start from Beisha City, go down along the coast, and set up a shipyard in its good port. The more the merrier, those who come do not refuse. Speaking of this, Lao Zhang was quite proud, "Yin Chu already knows the profits here." Therefore, since the Ashide Ministry can smuggle more wood from Nanmurwei and Goguryeo, it is to let the Yinchu people follow suit. ”
When Yin Chu heard this, he was immediately overjoyed: "Since the destruction of Jieli, there are many remnants seeking rebellion, and those who think about it are only the Ashina and Ashid clans." Now Your Majesty uses us like hounds, and it will not last long, but the road to death. Ah Lang can carry our people, and the concubine is grateful......"
Lao Zhang waved his hand and said: "The destruction of the Turks is the story of the Huns, and it is not human power to disobey it." Yin Chu can see it, I am very happy. ”
In fact, the demise and prosperity of the grassland people did not have much significance to their own people. Because of the steppe peoples since ancient times, they have no concept of race, such as Turkic, and the chaotic races are mixed together, collectively referred to as Turkic. Its combat power comes from the core tribes, such as Ashina and Ashide, and even Ashina, inexplicably there is a strange-looking Ashina Simo.
You can't blame Ashinasimo's mother for the surname Wang next door, right?
Therefore, before the Turkic establishment, the Central Plains was a relatively large tribe for them, but the way of life of this tribe was somewhat different from theirs.
One of the situations caused by the confusion of the bloodline of the steppe peoples is that the race is complex, so the race is often not mentioned, but the core tribe, the golden wolf family and later the golden family, are all one nature.
Therefore, the whole system perished, whether it was the Xiongnu Xianbei and Rouran, there was no substantial change, and the tribe was there. This is a bit of the flavor of the Central Plains family.
Pearl Honghu will not be sad because of the fall of the Turks, of course, there must be sadness, but since the heavenly khan is wise, then there is no sadness. Therefore, like the five surnames and seven hopes, what the Ashide family wants to seek after changing their surnames is how to survive and continue in the system of the Central Plains Dynasty.
Obviously, if you do the same thing as Li Simo to Li Dong, two or three generations at most, you will be completely destroyed. And if you change your perspective and learn from the Xiongnu prince Jin Riyan, then in the future, when their Ashide family is mentioned in the history books, it will definitely not be a certain barbarian who died after returning to obedience.
but loyalty, loyalty, and loyalty...... In short, beautiful grooming is not a dream.
It's just that as an old driver on a horse, there is no hope for him to make a fortune with his personal skills. So when Shi Yinchu found out that there were benefits to being a second wife, all this was so pleasant.
Yin Chu stayed in Cangzhou for a few days, and then returned to Liaoxi with Hu Cong, and the next thing to do was to persuade the clansmen to follow Zhang Caozhi. Of course, this is basic, some people who are confused and want to rise in honor on the battlefield, then they have to ask Zhang Caozhi's uncle Zhang Gongjin. There are still some people who want to go to Chang'an to work as security guards for rich and noble families, so they have to ask Zhang Caozhi's aunt, Princess Langya. Of course, there are some low-status ...... Even a piece of straw paper is useful. (To be continued.) )
