At this time, Li Dongyang, Zhou Jing, and Zhang Mao were not thinking about eating at all, as if they had not heard Liu Jin's words at all. The three people's eyes were fixed on the sea fish piled up like a hill on the pier.
"More than 120,000 pounds~"
Zhou Jing didn't care too much, and went directly to the place where the fish was released. He looked at the mountains of sea fish in front of him, and then looked at the other eight piers. Just like the one in front of him, baskets of sea fish were piled up into a pile.
At the same time, the entire Tianjin Port began to emit a strong fishy smell.
Zhang Mao hurriedly walked to another dock. He wanted to go there and see for himself how many sea fish the professional fishing boats manufactured by Tianjin Shipyard had caught.
"I've never seen so many fish."
Li Dongyang couldn't help but sigh as he looked at the fish mountains. Having seen these huge sea fish with his own eyes, he now completely believed it, and all the last traces of doubt in his heart were eliminated.
One ship caught more than 120,000 catties of marine fish. The total of the marine fish caught by these nine ships at one time was naturally more than one million catties. These million catties of marine fish were piled on the port pier, which was very spectacular.
"Today's harvest is not bad."
Liu Jin is very clear about the number of fish caught every day, because it is related to whether Tianjin can continue to operate normally. If there are less fish caught that day, Liu Jin will worry about the crowding in Tianjin.
There are more and more disaster victims, and more marine fish will be consumed every day in the future.
"The sea has been closed for so long, and there are really too many fish in the sea. But if we continue to fish like this every day, will we deplete the fish?"
“Will there be a fishing moratorium in the future?”
Liu Jin was thinking about the issue of sustainable development in his mind. The experience and lessons of future generations must be absorbed. The ultimate consequences of fishing for nothing will be very serious.
But soon Liu Jin smiled and shook his head. Now we have just begun to talk about fishing moratoriums. There are countless fish in the ocean at this time, and fishing technology has not yet been developed. You can go fishing with confidence.
"Boy, will you sell me five fishing boats?"
Just as Liu Jin was thinking about it, Zhang Mao had returned. When he came back, he immediately hurried to Liu Jin's side and said to Liu Jin with a smile.
Obviously, he already knew the value of this fishing boat. The fishing boats cost 20,000 taels each, and he actually said that he wanted to buy five of them. It was simply a wealth of money.
"Mr. Zhang, I can only sell you two ships at most. Shipbuilding is not that easy. If I sell five ships to you at once, I won't be able to use it myself."
When Liu Jin heard this, he smiled and replied.
"Two boats are not enough, at least three boats. Let's do this. You sell three fishing boats to me. I will be your matchmaker here in the capital and keep them for you to marry a beautiful lady back home."
Zhang Mao became anxious when he saw that Liu Jin only agreed to sell him two fishing boats. He rolled his eyes and actually used a beauty trap.
"Mr. Zhang, there are only three ships, but let's forget about this matchmaking thing."
When Liu Jin heard this, he immediately shook his head and said.
"Haha, this man is about to get married and his daughter is about to get married. There is nothing to be ashamed of. Don't worry, leave this matter to me."
When Zhang Mao saw Liu Jin's appearance, he immediately laughed happily, patted his chest and said.
"Um...then I'd like to thank Mr. Zhang first."
The other party was so enthusiastic that Liu Jin didn't know how to reply for a while, so he could only smile and thank him.
"A few boats can catch more than a million kilograms of marine fish in a day. If there are dozens of boats, then we don't have to worry about famine in the three northern provinces. If there are hundreds or thousands of fishing boats, then I
The people of Ming Dynasty can eat meat every day."
Li Dongyang on the side was still immersed in the joy of the harvest in front of him, and his mind was filled with fish.
"Actually, there is nothing terrible about this famine, especially this time when famine occurred in Shanxi, Shandong, and North Zhili provinces."
Liu Jin heard what Li Dongyang said, thought about it and said.
"Keep talking."
When Li Dongyang heard this, he came to his senses and quickly continued talking to Liu Jin.
"These three provinces, Beizhili and Shandong, are all close to the sea. Especially Shandong can be said to be surrounded by sea on three sides. As long as there are fishing boats, we can transport boatloads of marine fish very quickly."
"As for Shanxi, it is far from the sea. If the sea fish is not dried or pickled, it will definitely not be transported over long distances. Therefore, it is not suitable to use sea fish for disaster relief. This is the only place among the three places that really needs food for disaster relief.
The place."
"We can distinguish between the three disaster-stricken provinces according to different situations, and then take different relief measures."
Liu Jin pondered for a while, sorted out his words, and spoke slowly.
"This famine is more severe the farther north it goes. Although the southern parts of Shanxi, Beizhili, and Shandong provinces were affected by the disaster, the harvest was only a loss, not a complete harvest."
"Furthermore, these places are close to the southern region, and they can quickly get food relief from the southern region. Even if the situation is bad, they can go to the southern region to escape famine, so the situation is not serious."
"What is really serious is the northern areas of these three provinces. It is too cold in these areas and the grain harvest has stopped. It is a real harvest and disaster relief is needed. The most serious situations are naturally Yongping Prefecture in Beizhili, Tianjin, and Beijing.
, so the focus of disaster relief should be on this area."
As Liu Jin explained, Li Dongyang, Zhou Jing, and Zhang Mao thought for a while and nodded slightly.
The situation is indeed as Liu Jin said. The most severe famines are in Yongping Prefecture in Beizhili, Tianjin, the capital area, and the northwestern part of Shanxi. These areas are the most severely affected.
"After analyzing these clearly, we can adopt targeted strategies during disaster relief. In the areas of Beijing, Tianjin, and Yongping Prefecture, because they are close to the sea, we can completely use marine fish to provide disaster relief. It does not require too much
Lots of food."
"The situation in Shandong is the same. It's close to the sea and as long as there are boats, we can transport boatloads of marine fish to various places for disaster relief."
"The place where food is needed for disaster relief is here in Shanxi. It is too far away from the sea and transportation is inconvenient. Food must be used for disaster relief, so the food in the hands of the court can be collected and transported to Shanxi."
"As for Yongping Prefecture, Tianjin, and the capital area, most of the victims have now begun to gather towards the capital and Tianjin. This gathering is very conducive to our disaster relief, especially the official road between Beijing and Tianjin.
After the cement road is repaired."
"Using a horse-drawn carriage to transport fish, it can be transported over a hundred kilometers away in half a day. Disaster relief is not a problem at all."
"So as long as we understand all this, this disaster is not terrible and can be easily overcome."
Liu Jin expressed his thoughts about this famine, which is why Liu Jin is confident.
"I really don't know what's inside your kid's head. After listening to your analysis, I'm not worried about disasters at all now."
After Zhou Jing heard this, he couldn't help but let out a long sigh.
"I see, listening to you is better than ten years of reading!"
After listening to this, Li Dongyang thought carefully in his mind, and soon he couldn't help but smile and shake his head and said: "I have read books and learned how to govern a country all my life, but I don't even understand such a simple truth. It's really...
Ashamed~Ashamed.”
"Mr. Li is being humble. Boy, I'm just talking nonsense. If you really ask me to do something, I don't understand anything."
Liu Jin quickly shook his head and said.
"Dang~dang~"
At this moment, another burst of bells came from the lighthouse, which made everyone at the port confused. The ship had already returned, so why did they think of the bells again?
"A ship has returned to port~ A ship has returned to port. It seems that the ship bound for North Korea has returned~"
Soon, on top of the lighthouse, the person in charge of the lookout spoke loudly with a big iron trumpet.
"The North Korean ship is back?"
"It's just the right time to come back."
When Liu Jin heard this, he immediately became energetic.
