Chapter 16 Planning
Even if Zhao Hongyu can't figure it out, the facts can't be changed now.
The fact that he is now an 'illegal' dealer is already a certainty.
'Black-hearted cotton' products have become popular in the Moxie dry tribe now, and he has made a lot of money, so he can't return it now.
Wang Shan persuaded Zhao Hongyu, anyway, in order to make money, it doesn't matter if he is black-hearted. When they grow stronger, I'm trying to find a way to compensate them.
After Wang Shan's persuasion, Zhao Hongyu also figured it out.
Unscrupulous traders are unscrupulous traders, and they can't change much now anyway.
The time and space trader would actually sell 'black-hearted cotton' products to him, which was something that shocked Zhao Hongyu and did not expect.
But Zhao Hongyu thought about it like this, and he figured it out.
Dare to say that why is this labor protection supplies so cheap, the price of a set of clothes and pants with a military coat is only 150, it turns out that it is a black-hearted cotton product.
If it weren't for that, it probably wouldn't be so cheap.
Now his twelve novice subordinates are also wearing this kind of black-hearted cotton clothes. Zhao Hongyu had the heart to change them into other clothes to wear, thinking that a set of fur products would cost 3,000 yuan, he was a little reluctant now.
Don't look at the two million in his account, but this money is the most forbidden.
But after thinking about it, Zhao Hongyu still bought new fur pants and warm coats for his twelve subordinates, after all, if they had three strengths and two shorts because of the black-hearted cotton clothes, wouldn't he be even more at a loss.
As for these twelve sets of black-hearted cotton products, it would be good to dispose of them to the Mohicans when the time comes.
Zhao Hongyu has already entered the role of an illegal trader very well.
Bulk rice is stale rice!
The military coat and cotton pants of the labor protection equipment are black-hearted cotton!
A wooden set of dishes is made of wood dregs and then painted with a carcinogenic lacquer.
Red Star Erguotou is inferior alcohol mixed with water, but fortunately it is not industrial alcohol.
After some inspection, Zhao Hongyu was completely helpless.
The space-time trader is simply a big black-hearted workshop, although the things sold here are all 21st century products, but the quality of this product is really a headache.
However, Wang Shan also persuaded Zhao Hongyu, and he didn't need to pay too much attention to these problems.
Although it is a very junk product in the 21st century, it is a 'high-tech' object on this continent in this era.
Let's just say that the two-pot head of alcohol mixed with water is very popular in the dry seamothy region.
This kind of thing, which the Mohicans called 'ice and fire', was immediately popular among men as soon as it was introduced.
Especially after drinking the second pot head, the body will be warm, which makes men flock to it.
If you drink too much, you will have a headache, dry mouth, and no appetite at all. But you can drink porridge in the morning, if you don't have an appetite, you can drink meat porridge, you can drink white porridge, and it can be appetizing with mustard.
Invisibly, this also drove the sales of rice and mustard, which Zhao Hongyu did not expect.
Now it seems that whether or not old rice and alcohol are mixed with water really has no effect on him.
"Chief, there are fifteen of us now, and sixteen of you. What should we do next, anyway, we have the territory? ”
Zhang Tie and Song Hu also came around, and the new genetic people who took off the black-hearted cotton army coat and pants also came over.
"It's the end of January, and in a month the winter will be over, and the snow and ice will melt. I guess we're going to go to the south coast of Manhattan and set up our own camp. ”…,
Zhao Hongyu has long had such a plan in his mind.
The south coast of Manhattan is a large port in the 21st century, and it is essential if it is already developed and seafaring trade is to begin.
At the same time, your camp should not be too far from the harbor, which will make transportation inconvenient.
The settlement of the Moxie dry tribe is only a mile away from Manhattan Island, but it is not far from it at all.
Zhao Hongyu stood on the top of a nearby hill and could see the blue sea.
Manhattan Island faces the river on three sides and the sea on three sides, and the geographical location is still good. In particular, the entire island is completely a large plain, which is very suitable for development as a settlement.
(The author made it up himself, Manhattan Island is certainly not a plain landform in real history, don't disturb the party)
Although Manhattan Island is surrounded by rivers on three sides and the sea on three sides, there is still a place to sail a boat to the island. This made things much easier, and Zhao Hongyu and his men set foot on Manhattan land early the next morning through a shoal in the Hudson River, using Mohican wooden rafts.
"This piece of land belongs to us all the way to the east, and Long Island will be a high-end villa area in the future, but now I think it's still a wasteland."
Thinking of the 21st century New York urban planning, Zhao Hongyu said to Wang Shan with a smile on his face.
"Chief, because of your presence, it is uncertain whether the United States will appear now. As long as we develop well, if you like it in the future, Long Island can develop it yourself. ”
Song Hu said angrily.
Song Hu's words made Zhao Hongyu's eyes light up.
Yes, I'm on the American continent right now, and there's not a lot of outsiders in New York yet. The first batch of Dutchmen had long since lost their place, and it would take six years for the second group of Dutchmen to come.
In the past six years, I don't believe that Lao Tzu still can't develop?
As long as Lao Tzu is developed, not to mention a small New York, even the entire North and South American continent is Lao Tzu.
Zhao Hongyu didn't want to rule the world, and his ambition to have such a space-time trader is not very big.
After all, if he really made a nuclear bomb, there really would be no one in the country of this era who was his opponent.
But Zhao Hongyu also knew that the meal had to be eaten one bite at a time, and he now had a total of fifteen people, and he was only sixteen people if he counted himself.
The weapons that can be bought are just arquebuses.
With fifteen men and arquebuses, not to mention conquering the world, even a small Indian tribe of three hundred people nearby could not conquer it.
So, Zhao Hongyu quickly put away his YY mentality.
Zhao Hongyu landed on Manhattan Island and brought twelve people. Wang Shan, Zhang Tie and Song Hu, each of them left a subordinate in the Moxi dry tribe, after all, the 'commissary' is patronized every day, and there must be people left.
Manhattan Island covers an area of 57.91 square kilometers and is bordered by the East River to the east, the Hudson River to the west, and the Harlem River to the north. The entire island is a fertile plain, and the three rivers are home to countless animal resources.
What a great place!
Since he set foot on Manhattan Island, Zhao Hongyu has been amazed.
In the 21st century, the entire island of Manhattan could accommodate 1.6 million people.
I don't have the ability to do that yet, but it's still possible to plan a small town that can accommodate 10,000 people.
At the same time, this plain can also be used well and become a large area of fertile land.
Almost 60 square kilometers, at least 100,000 acres of fertile land can be reclaimed.
The output of 100,000 acres of fertile land can supply at least one million people with food. …,
And these grains can be exported and sold by themselves.
It seems that there is still a shortage of food in Europe these days, and I can make a lot of money.
Zhao Hongyu laughed in a gloomy voice.
Yes, Europe is mountainous and has few plains.
If it weren't for the discovery of the American continent and the solution of the food problem, God knows what would have happened in Europe.
In Europe at this time, the Spanish Armada had been destroyed, Britain was rising, the Dutch were being coachmen at sea, the French were still a little kid, and the African slave trade was also emerging.
This is a turbulent era, who can grasp the pulse of the times, then he can become the leader of this era.
Wow~Wow~
The crowd came to the southern seashore, and the sound of the sea lapping against the shore was filled with their ears. As the sea breeze blew, Zhao Hongyu even felt that he could smell the salty smell of the seawater.
Sure enough, it is a natural port, and as long as it is built a little, then it can become a big port.
Zhao Hongyu looked at it a little, and there was a look of surprise on his face.
Yes, there is a large rocky area along the southern coastline.
This rocky terrain has been weathered by wind and rain to form a natural plane, and at first glance it looks like a harbor dock that God has prepared for the day.
This is a great thing for Zhao Hongyu.
Because, as long as it is used here, even if it is a 10,000-ton freighter in the 21st century, two can be stopped.
Not to mention the 17th-century wooden sea boats.
At a minimum, it is no problem to dock 20 ships at a time. In this way, trade will develop in the future, and he will not have to worry about the port for fifty years.
Besides, in fifty years, he could have developed to the point where he could buy machinery products for heavy industry. At that time, it is not impossible to rebuild the port with concrete and cement.
Zhao Hongyu looked back at the place not far from this natural port, raised his finger and pointed: "Our settlement is chosen over there, tomorrow I will go to the leader of Mohican to discuss, we will provide food and hire Mohican people to cut wood, and build a wooden camp that belongs to us here." ”
"Good thing, Chief!"
In this way, Zhao Hongyu chose their settlement and formulated a series of development plans.
Although he only has fifteen men now, he has strong confidence in the future.
As long as he is given time to develop, then everything is possible in the future.
The only problem is that there is no direct way to Manhattan.
