"It is not difficult to buy and sell goods. More than ten years are indeed too long. It is normal for us to be unable to grasp the market conditions. Instead of making random guesses here, it is better to send people to inquire about the situation yourself. Going to sea is not a matter of overnight. It takes a lot of time to build sea ships and rebuild ports. During this period, people can be sent to the county or even the state to understand clearly." Fang Chen continued to say.

Everyone nodded without realizing it, just wanting to send someone to inquire. Anyway, they don’t go to sea so quickly. It’s ridiculous to just guess it’s just a waste of time.

Fang Chen said again: "In addition, Fang thinks it is best to know which kind of commodity demand is the most and profitable. We can set up corresponding workshops in a targeted manner instead of random production, which will only make a few hard money."

Everyone agreed and thought it made sense. This person was really meticulous and even thought about this. If he did it according to his plan, he would still be worried that he would not be able to make money?

For some reason, the clever heads of the clan present had a more meaningful look at Fang Chen, which was a kind of trust.

This kind of trust is invisible and intangible, but it can greatly increase Fang Chen's prestige. It may be impossible to respond to it in Fuyu in the future, but if you want to do anything, it will be more easily convincing.

After the two problems were solved, the remaining details were simple, but it was basically discussed in two hours.

Finally, buy a boat.

At the heyday of Xiaogang Town, almost all the gentry had their own sea boats, and many powerful merchants had private ships. However, after Xiaogang Town was destroyed, all the sea boats were naturally sold. The sea boats were to be maintained, but the maintenance cost was not low. Without the sea trade, each company would naturally not pay this unjust money again.

Therefore, according to normal circumstances, it is necessary to go to a port with a boat shop by land. Moreover, in general, the port can only build a boat shop with a thousand materials below a thousand materials. Only a large port can build a boat shop with a thousand materials. The nearest port is Shangjiang City, which sells salt in three towns and seven towns.

But Shangjiang City is not in Haizhou, but adjacent Quanzhou!

If there is a boat, sailing along the near sea, the road will be unobstructed and it will only take half a month to reach it, but if you take the land, it will be troublesome.

Haizhou itself has a complex environment, with many mountains and many ridges, and there are more bandits. Even if it goes well, it will take nearly a month to leave the state. Moreover, if you travel with more than 200,000 taels of boat purchase, if you are known, the bandits will not be like cats smelling fishy, ​​rushing in. Even if the thief doesn't know it is silver, there must be many convoys that transport silver. The thief will definitely make a decision when they see it. It can be said that there will definitely be no peace along the way.

Who will go? How many masters will need to escort it, which becomes the most important question.

Fang Chen thought for a while, suddenly, Yu Guang caught a glimpse of the people from the three towns, immediately had an idea, and smiled and said, "Fang has a way or may he do it."

Everyone saw that he was speaking, and immediately showed expectation. Now they all had inexplicable confidence from Fang Chen, as if as long as he spoke, there would be no problem that could not be solved.

Fang Chen didn't keep it a secret and said bluntly: "In fact, there is no need to bring enough silver to buy a ship at one time. You can bring a small amount of silver and buy a few smaller old ships. In this way, you can send the ship directly to the port through sea transportation, saving a lot of trouble. Secondly, you may still have some seafarers at home, but you must have become unfamiliar with these old ships. These old ships can be practiced and familiarized with them again. Finally, you must not be satisfied with the fifteen ships now? With these sea boats, you can train a lot of new people. When you train enough seafarers, you can increase them to twenty, thirty, or even more!"

After saying that, he gave Zhong and Liu family a wink. Both of them were very mentally ill. They were a little stunned and soon woke up. Fang Chen was taking the opportunity to whitewash the salt ships of their seven families!

In the past, when sea transportation was at its peak, there were too many ships, and no one would care about their ships being offside. But now it is different. All the ships have been sold, and the problem of his family suddenly creating several ships is big.

Whether it is a legacy problem or a newly purchased one, it is unreasonable. Without the Hai Trade, how many of your companies still have ships? What are the shameful secrets? New purchases are even more troublesome. Now every family is eating big pot meals, but you are making ships to go private goods by yourself. Is this kind of behavior of leaving the organization and speculation?

Especially the Liu and Zhong families have a little sensitive identity. If something happens, it will be difficult to gain the trust of the Buyu forces.

After the two figured it out, they suddenly burst into a cold sweat and threw a grateful look at Fang Chen. Then, Zhong Yuanchang stood up and recommended himself, saying, "Everyone, my identities are indeed difficult, but we have been in Fuyu for a hundred years and have long regarded myself as Fuyu people. This time, I am willing to lead the team to go there, and the money will be paid by my two families. We will give it to our county for exercises and express our feelings!"

Liu Chuxiong also nodded and agreed, "Yi Ji, Shi Ji. Although we are those two branches, we have been separated by a hundred years. Now there is not much contact except ore. This time, we will be responsible for purchasing the training boat, which is also considered as the county's dedication."

As the two said, they kept winking at the other five families. Although the five families were a little disappointed just now, they were grasshoppers on a rope when it came to the issue of salt fields, so they really couldn't leave them behind.

The five families obviously have not been so keen. If Li Zhi is there, he might be able to see it, but Li Shan is just a housekeeper in the end and has limited eyesight. Moreover, he cannot know the master of this matter, so he naturally did not dare to follow.

Only Cui Chengwu hesitated for a moment, stood up, and expressed his willingness to go with him.

He was together, Gao, and although the Xu family did not understand the truth, he still stood up with a tough bullet. As a result, only Li and Wang family were still sitting stupidly.

Fang Chen was speechless, it was fine if Li Shan, but Wang Mantang is usually quite smart, so why is he so slow today?

Helplessly, he could only say, "Butler Li, Mr. Wang, you go together, the three towns and eight families have always been advancing and retreating, how can you sit down and see? I will ask Zhang Long and Zhang Hu to take people with you as well."

When the two heard this, they had to respond. Fang Chen was no longer the same as before, and they could not easily refuse. Moreover, Fang Chen and they were from the sea of ​​hope, and they were also counting on this relationship and could get more care, just like Wang Mantang had already tasted the sweetness.

The others didn't know the details and just thought that the two companies wanted to show positively due to their identity issues. As for the other companies... they would be considered "deep love and friendship". Anyway, they were not wrong.

They thought about it for a while and agreed.

After all, Fang Chen is right. It is hard to say how much of the skills left for those people to run the boat after not going to sea for more than ten years. Moreover, the share of fifteen ships is indeed too small. Now it is just a temporary measure. It will definitely expand in the future, and more people will be needed at that time.

It is not something you can learn to drive a boat overnight. It is now cultivated in advance, but it is just right at that time.

Now that some people are willing to contribute money and efforts, they are naturally willing to prejudice.

The matter was decided, and the county-wide meeting finally ended. It was still early in the morning when everyone came, and the lights were on when they left.

Many merchants look hesitant and fearful when they enter, but when they go out, they are full of joy and convincing. After today, their attitude towards Fang Chen will also change from pure fear to convincing awe.

When he left, Li Shan deliberately stayed at the end and said embarrassedly: "Fang, the head of the Fang family, the old master of the family promised to hand over five pieces of salt fields of the Cai family to you, but the master forgot about the matter some time ago. This time, the old slave came, and the master deliberately mentioned it and asked the head of the Fang family to send someone to hand over it as soon as possible. The sea salt produced in the salt fields before will also be kept for the Fang family."

"Oh? Mr. Li is finally finished working? Oh, it's really not easy to take it as old. After Mr. Li returns, he should remind him to pay more attention to his body." Fang Chen said with a smile.

"Yes, yes, when the old slave returns, he will definitely remind the master." Li Shan smiled bitterly. No one is a fool, let alone a shrewd person like Fang Chen.

Fang Chen was a little funny and didn't make things difficult for him anymore, saying, "Okay, I understand. Butler Li will go back first, and I will send someone to hand over later."

After Li Shan left, Fang Chen's mouth curled up and said, "It's not easy for this old fox to finally bow his head!"

Recalling the days when I was fighting with the old fox in secret, it was meaningless, but in the end, I won by myself.

Five pieces of salt fields are just icing on the cake for him now. He only has 3,000 taels a year, not half of his monthly income from the shop in the county. But no one thinks that the money is too much. Besides, the master's elder promised it himself that it is already his own thing. Since it is his own, he will naturally take it back.

……………………

"This kid is amazing! You really have a terrifying young man!" After leaving the Weihai Gang, the people from the three major families gathered together again. Yang Yuanzhao took a sip of tea and sighed.

Liu Zhengyang nodded in agreement and said, "Who said no? What were you and I doing when I was so old? I couldn't compare it to you!"

Qian Botao also exclaimed: "This kid has a big pattern and a high vision, which is really hard to imagine. You must have seen that this kid has always been at the height of Fuyu's overall situation. In addition to solving the problem, every proposal is also very beneficial to Fuyu's development. It is meticulous and comprehensive. If this is implemented and everything goes well, not only will we have great changes in a few years, but Fuyu's changes are also unimaginable."

How could Yang Yuanzhao and Liu Zhengyang not see it? They couldn't help but look at each other and smile bitterly. When they were still staring at the streets and yards in the city, the boy saw the entire Fuyu. The gap was so big that they felt that they had really lived to the Bulu dog for decades.

The three of them were silent for a moment, and Liu Zhengyang said, "Then how can we wait?"

The two knew his consciousness. Such a person appeared in Fuyu. How can the three families deal with themselves in the future and how should they treat that person?

"What else can you do? Just do it!" Yang Yuanzhao sighed and shook his head.

Qian Botao was also helpless and said, "After today, that person can't hold back. When he goes out to sea smoothly, his reputation will even suppress me. So what can we do?"

Liu Zhengyang nodded, "I will not give up going to sea." His attitude is very obvious. For the sake of going to sea, the Liu family will definitely not take action.

"Stop it, let's do it. Since that kid wants to promote Fuyu and bring all the forces in the county into the market, he will definitely not destroy the current situation. There is no direct conflict of interest between our three families and him, so he must be able to develop steadily." Yang Yuanzhao said.

The big family always puts interests first and survive first. As long as they do not touch their fundamental interests, they will not easily conflict with people of the same level.

Of course, if the target is too weak, they don’t mind eating it, but Fang Chen should forget it.

……………………

Shortly after the discussion ended, the entire Fuyu became excited. No matter inside and outside the city, all the powerful forces that were able to do so were moved.

Driven by the interests of going out to the sea, efficiency was greatly reflected, with a large number of personnel mobilized and a large number of supplies gathered. The blacksmith workshops were rotated day and night, and the sound of "ding ding ding ding ding ding ding ding ding ding ding ding ding ding ding ding ding ding ding ding ding ding ding ding ding ding ding ding ding ding slamming slamming ding ding ding ding ding ding ding ding ding ding ding ding ding ding ding ding ding ding ding ding ding ding ding ding ding ding ding ding ding ding ding ding ding ding ding ding ding ding ding ding ding ding ding ding ding ding ding ding ding ding ding ding ding ding ding ding ding ding ding ding ding ding ding ding ding ding ding

People who are not sure of this will think something big has happened, and they are going to gather the forces of the whole county to prepare to go to war with whom.

Fortunately, the county government and the supervisory department have reported it, but there is no trouble. After all, those confused are small families and ordinary people. As long as there is no intention to guide them, no major problems will occur.

The rebuilding of the port is impossible to avoid. It must be opened by the county seal.

However, Fang Chen didn't ask too much about these actions. The original appearance of Xiaogang Town and how to rebuild them were. The gentry were more familiar with him than him. He was not a civil engineering student, so he could not give him any good advice.

He just sent someone to look back at the sea to inform Zhang Long, Zhang Hu and Cai An, to take over Yantian, and lead people to follow the Qijia to learn how to drive the boat, but he ignored the others.

Wanghai is now very stable, so he is too lazy to go back. After all, going to sea is of great importance. As the leader and host, he naturally has to sit in the city and sort out and coordinate issues of all parties.

However, in the martial arts hall, he took the time to write down some of the martial arts in the hall for apprentices to practice.

There are too many martial arts in Shaolin Baiyi, and he cannot finish them all in a short time. Considering that there are only six acquired skills included, even the five-step Bengquan and the eight-step Divine Fist can be classified into one, one original version and one advanced version.

Therefore, he selected four or five martial arts that match each acquired martial art to form complementary complementary methods.

With the comprehensiveness of the four stages of skill and mind, I believe that as long as I work hard, I can reach the peak of my divine power, have rich means of responding to the enemy, and can occupy a huge amount of power among the same level.

In the future, if you break through the acquired realm, even if your internal practice is slightly weaker, I believe you will not be the bottom.

For example, the Eight-Puncture Divine Fist, he intends to join the Baiyi Zhongtongbei Fist, Cannon Fist, Five Tiger Fist, Tiger Fist, and Vajra Fist, all of which belong to the fierce and fierce boxing techniques, allowing practitioners to have more powerful and powerful methods to fight the enemy and bursting methods.

However, compared with the other sects, he had more ideas about the spiritual snake's body swimming skills.

This technique was created by the snake king Xue Jingyang, and his boxing and body techniques were indeed extremely exquisite. When Fang Chen fought with Xue Hongwu, his strength was far stronger than him, but he had no good way to deal with him. If it were not limited by the environment, he would not know how much effort it would take to win it.

Therefore, Fang Chen also valued this martial arts more and always felt that it was a waste to match some ordinary martial arts.

There are also snake fists in all kinds of arts, which can be used as a supplement to the spiritual snake fist, but the rest are soft fists, eagle claw fists, one-finger Zen skills and inner martial arts.
