Chapter four hundred and ninety first ambition

Being able to tell the difficulties means that this ship can really be built. After hearing this, Wang Tong smiled and asked:

"If you have any difficulties, just tell me!"

The craftsman looked over fifty years old, but the people on the beach were covered with wind and sun all day long, and the people seemed old. The craftsman said that it was a bit difficult to build a ship, so he kept staring at Wang Tong.

After all, Wang Tong is also a thousand households in the Jinyiwei, the boat craftsmen are also ordinary people, and they are still people who violate the sea ban and build ships privately. If they cannot be built, if Wang Tong is unreasonable, everyone will have no choice but to do so. Maybe they will have to bear the blame. What the boat craftsmen said just now is a bit true, but it also has some temptation.

Hearing Wang Tong's retort, the boatman couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, and looked at several companions! Eyes, and spoke:

"The master and the young men just went down to the bottom floor, but did you see that keel bone?"

Just as he was getting off the boat, he deliberately opened the compartment on the bottom floor, went in and took a look, and could see a beam running through the stern of the ship. Wang Tong nodded, and the boatman said again:

"The structure of this ship is like a pig and sheep skeleton, but it is turned over. It is just on the keel bone. Without this keel bone, the entire ship cannot be built. Such a big ship can support the keel bone. For example, in addition to such a big tree in Yunnan and Guizhou, there are other places. So it is difficult to build this ship, but it is not difficult to make a smaller one."

After the shipmaster finished speaking, he thought about it again and added:

"It's not impossible to splice a few pieces of wood into one piece of material, but the storm on the sea is very strong, so I still have to be safe."

In fact, there are already several woods in the Guangzhou ship to make large wood as keel bones, and they are quite useful, but the craftsmen in Shandong do not understand such techniques after all.

There was not enough wood, and this difficulty was practical. Wang Tong thought about it but said:

"A few follow me."

The boatmen didn't know where they were going, but they were a little uneasy in their hearts. They followed Wang Tong off the boat together, but this time they didn't go back, but went straight to the beach.

I didn't walk far, but I saw a blank space. It was surrounded by fences made of wooden boards, but there were many cars and horses outside.

Seeing Wang Tong coming over there, the person in charge hurriedly came out to greet him and led Wang Tong and the boatmen in.

After entering this open land, the boatmen knew what Wang Tong ordered them to see. A huge log was placed on the open land. Some people were rushing around with a tape measure, and some merchants were talking and bargaining there.

Wang Tong said with a smile:

“Is this wood big enough?”

The old boatman who said the difficulties did not respond, but walked forward instead. The few people behind him sued him and hurriedly followed. The guys in Kiba were about to come forward to stop him, but when they saw Wang Tong behind him, they quickly dodged.

These boatmen touched and smelled the big tree, and even borrowed awls to the people next to them and stabbed them a few times. Wang Tong looked at them with a smile on the side without stopping them.

Wang Tong likes the busy appearance of professionals. What they do is achieve, have basis, and can constantly create value. Relatively speaking, those scholars talk about the ways of sages and the principles of sages and the principles of heaven and earth. They are just empty words and have no value, so they are very disgusted with poetry.

After struggling around the log for a long time, several boatmen returned to Wang Tong's side and said:

"Master, these woods are discharged from the sea, right?"

Looking at Wang Tong nodding, the boatmen were all a little excited, and the old boatman said:

"To build a ship, the wood must be soaked in the sea for a while before it can be used together. Look at the wood just now, the wood is salt water vapor and the wood is dense, so it must be discharged in the sea. Master, these woods come from the south, and the cost is quite large!"

Wang Tong shook his head and said with a smile:

"How could it be coming from the south? Do you think there is no big wood in Liaodong?"

After saying this, several ship craftsmen suddenly realized and laughed. They cut down huge trees in the deep mountains and forests outside the pass, discharged them down the rivers, and went to Tianjin Wei to sell them. This is also Wang Tong's proud point, and the exchange of goods elsewhere, and the high prices of cheap and useless goods are sold here. This is the essence of trade.

Seeing that this big wood could be useful to his family, Wang Tong was a little proud and asked again:

"You see, is this big wood enough?"

"Enough, enough!"

Several boatmen nodded in a hurry. Wang Tong was in a good mood and led a few people out of the wooden yard. He pointed at the open space of Haihe and the seaside and said:

"In the future, this place will be a dock, warehouse, store shop, and the most prosperous place in the world. However, Tianjin Wei does not have its own sea boats now, so it is not convenient to go to trade everywhere, so I want to build a boat yard here to build a ship."

As the nature gets higher and higher, Wang Tong's voice is gradually rising:

"Tianjin Wei is not short of money, and Tianjin Wei is not short of people, but it is short of boatmen and boatmen. Now that you are here, Tianjin Wei will build its own big ship and build the largest ship in the world!"

Speaking of this, Wang Tong turned around and said to several boatmen:

You have also seen the prosperity of Tianjin Wei. Tianjin Wei has money and the official has money. As long as you can build a big ship, you will also have money. Then you will have an official position. In this Tianjin Wei, as long as you have the ability and are willing to do everything!!"

As a boatman, being able to build a big ship is also a way to prove his achievements. Naturally, he is willing, not to mention the generous treatment that Wang Tong promised.

They could understand after a little thought that this time they came first. If they did their best, the manager of the boat was the one who was the one who was the one who was the one who was the one who was the one who was the one who was the one who was the one who was the one who was the one who was the one who was the one who was the one who was the one who was the one who was the one who was the one who was the one who was the one who was the one who was the one who was the one who was the one who was the one who was the one who was the one who was the one who was the one who was the one who was the one who was the one who was the one who was the one who was the one who was the one who was the one who was the one who was the one who was the one who was the one who was the one who was the one who was the one who was the one who was the one who was the one who was the one who was the one who was the one who was the one who was the one who was the one who was the one who was the one who was the one who was the one who was the

Shipbuilding in Shandong is just a prosperous and well-off society, but there is a chance of great wealth in Tianjin Wei. How can people not be moved by it? Of course, several shipmakers are willing to do so. The more they are, the more careful they need to plan.

The craftsmen who build sea boats need to outline structures, assign workmanship, check progress, and care about all aspects of materials. Although they have never read any books, they are all meticulous and have a sense of the overall situation. After Wang Tong finished speaking, when he looked at them, everyone had already made plans.

Five boatmen looked at each other. The oldest man first stepped forward and bowed as a tribute, and spoke in a stern voice:

"The master values ​​this so much, and the young people will definitely serve as a reward, but they are not anxious. Just five young people can't make anything. If the master can find the young people, he will definitely find more people. The young people come from Dengzhou, and there are many people who can build ships in Laizhou and Qingzhou. The young people ask the master to be kind and ask the villain to return to Shandong once, which will definitely bring more skilled craftsmen to the master."

This is the old and persistent plan. Wang Tong nodded and the other person said:

"Although Tianjin Wei and Shandong are close to each other, they are really busy, and they are afraid they can't go home. When the villains go back this time, they will bring all their families. The same is true for those later. At that time, they will ask the master to give him a place to settle."

If Wang Tong had a bold statement just now, then now he has a rough outline. The more Wang Tong listened, the happier he became, and he spoke there:

"It's easy to say, it's easy to say. If you come, you will specially set a place for you to live in. Think about how to recruit and enlist the Regulations. Everything is decided, and all the money and manpower are allocated to you. It's better to do it as soon as possible!"

Several boatmen bowed together to receive the order.

"Put a house for the Wu family, so that they can't go out, and provide everything else well. Find a male Wu family other than their brothers to release it, and ask Wu Lao Er to write a letter to bring Wu Da. The more ship workers find, the more benefits their brothers and their family will have. In the end, the charge of bandits will be eliminated."

When he returned to the mansion, Wang Tong was quite satisfied with the errands that Wu Da had done. He had to explain a few words to him and let him continue to work hard and give them some sweet things to try.

When the Wu brothers thought about it, they naturally thought of Dong Chuangxi, a thousand households of Jinyiwei from Shandong. Now they have played the tricks of dragging words in the officialdom with Wang Tong. Wang Tongcai ordered the other side, and after thinking about it, he called his subordinates, and said:

"I will send a letter to Dong Qianhu again. The boatman, the crew sailor, he can't invite him. Can't catch him? This time I went to Jinan Mansion and sent him a letter to him in the house. I wrote it in the tone of the Wu family. I really thought that the bridge could be broken by crossing the river. I thought it was beautiful!"

The man below agreed with a smile, turned around and went out. After Wang Tong sat down, he spoke:

"Dahai, Panpan's Dong's shop, let's see what business involves in Tianjin Wei Dong Chuangxi. In addition to Lu Hai, there must be other companies who want to block the situation and pinch them together."

Sun Dahai stood up to take the order and said with a smile:

"I used to think that the two families competed for women. It turned out that the aunt was Wu Da's outer house, but Dong Chuangxi was jealous of the Wu family's property. Later, the Wu family wanted to seize the Dong family's property. Both families were for money, but they found such a dirty reason."

Wang Tong shook his head and said with a smile:

"No matter how they make trouble, they will do our jobs."

On the fifth day of October, the huge slum area of ​​Triangle Delta, near the area near Wangtong Factory, began to flip houses and these houses were for the apprentices of craftsmen in the workshop. The entire slum area began to organize manual digging of drainage ditches, build wells, and rectify all too dirty areas.

No matter what position Wang Tong takes, this matter is a great good policy. The inner and outer cities of Tianjin Acropolis are praised, wealthy merchants are willing to pay for help, and several temples and Taoist temples are also working hard. Even those scholars and literati are forced to write articles, waving flags and shouting, which is a rare scene.
