The Zhang brothers came and left in a hurry. Because of Liu Jin's words, the two brothers were not planning to buy a boat, but were planning to build a boat themselves.
Seeing the Zhang brothers leaving in a hurry, Liu Jin was slightly speechless. He just said it casually, but he didn't expect that the two brothers took it seriously and really planned to build a ship by themselves.
"That's fine, having more man-made ships is also a good thing, but I don't know what kind of ships these two brothers can build."
Liu Jin touched his nose and smiled after thinking about it.
If you want to fully open up the sea, promote the development of Ming Dynasty overseas, and carry out global colonization, it is not enough for people to go to sea to pursue wealth. You also need more people to build ships. Only by building more and more advanced ships can we truly promote the development of Ming Dynasty.
Behemoths are developing towards the ocean.
It's hard to say that the Zhang brothers were persuaded to build ships by just one word. Maybe they would really accomplish something.
At least their interests will be consistent with their own. The ships they build will definitely be sold in the future. Anyone who talks about banning the sea must be their public enemy. With these two brothers charging into the battle to attract firepower
It's also very good.
"Mr. Liu, I'm also here to buy a boat."
Here the Zhang brothers were sent away, and Changning Bo Zhou Yu also explained his purpose of coming.
"Of course there is no problem, but you also know the price."
Liu Jin smiled and replied cheerfully.
"The price will be according to what you said, Mr. Liu. I want to buy two fishing boats and an ocean-going boat. Is it okay?"
Changning Bo Zhou Yu had no airs, he was easy to talk to, and he didn't even pay back the price.
"There is no problem with two fishing boats, but my suggestion for this ocean-going boat is that it is best to buy two at once, because after all, the risks of ocean-going are very high, and one boat is too few. It is better to have two boats to go to sea together, each other
They can also take care of each other.”
Liu Jin thought about it and said.
"Two ocean-going ships?"
"This ocean-going ship costs one hundred thousand taels of silver, and these two ships cost two hundred thousand taels of silver. It's difficult for me to come up with so much silver at once."
When Chang Ning Bo Zhou Yu heard this, he was a little embarrassed. He didn't have too much capital and didn't have too much money in his hands. Buying two ships at once would be too much pressure.
You must know that Zhang Mao, Zhu Fu, and Xu Guangzuo only bought two ships. The price of 100,000 taels per ship was indeed too expensive. Even top wealthy nobles like them found it unbearable.
"Lao Zhou, you should buy one first. The three of us happened to have bought two ships together. Then we will go to North Korea with the three ships and take care of each other. After we earn money, we will add new ships.
There’s no rush.”
At this time, Zhang Mao, Zhu Fu, and Xu Guangzuo looked at each other and smiled, and said to Zhou Yu with a smile. It was obvious that they liked Zhou Yu more and were willing to take Zhou Yu to play with him.
"This... I'll just thank you in advance."
When Zhou Yu heard this, he immediately laughed happily and quickly expressed his gratitude to Zhang Mao and the others.
"Say thank you and then go out. If you really want to thank me, let's thank Liu Jin."
"Well, Liu Jin has reached the age of marrying a wife, but he has never had a good match. Lao Zhou, you can help introduce him."
Zhang Mao touched his beard, then rolled his eyes and immediately changed the topic to Liu Jin.
"..."
Liu Jin was speechless again. Zhang Mao Ganqing wanted to spread the fact of being single throughout the Ming Dynasty. If he needed to meet someone, he would tell him whether he wanted to meet anyone in the future. He was probably going to become the Ming Dynasty version of a national son-in-law.
.
"Okay, okay. Young masters like Liu Jin and Mr. Liu must be loved by everyone. I will definitely help Mr. Liu find a perfect match."
When Zhou Yu heard this, he immediately smiled and nodded in agreement, and then looked at Liu Jin carefully. Liu Jin looked very good and had a good skin.
"…Then I would like to thank Duke Zhou first."
Liu Jin could only express his gratitude with a wry smile. At the same time, when he looked at Zhang Mao, he could see Zhang Mao's slightly proud smile.
It seems that his name will spread throughout the capital soon. It is estimated that when he returns to the capital, everyone in the capital will know that he is a single dog.
"There is no sincerity in saying thank you verbally, so hurry up and prepare a seafood feast, just like last time. The seafood becomes more and more delicious as you eat it. Now if you don't eat some seafood every day, you will feel like you are missing something.
"
Zhang Mao looked at Liu Jin and was ready to blackmail Liu Jin again.
Then he turned to Zhu Fu, Zhou Yu, and Xu Guangzuo and said, "You must try this seafood, especially the seafood made by this brat. It is absolutely unique in the world. You must try it."
"Yeah, then I really want to have a taste."
When Zhu Fu heard this, he smiled and said.
"I didn't expect Mr. Liu to have good cooking skills. I'm really lucky today."
Xu Guangzuo also smiled at Liu Jin and said.
"Haha, the one you recommended, Lao Zhang, is definitely good. You must try it."
Zhou Yu also pinched his beard and said.
"..."
Liu Jin was speechless for a moment and could only say with a wry smile: "You guys are willing to show your respect, so I will naturally welcome you and keep it until you can return home satisfied."
In the next few days, many people came to see Liu Jin one after another.
From Dukes like Zhang Mao and Zhu Fu, to relatives like Zhou Yu and the Zhang brothers, to the top wealthy aristocrats of the Ming Dynasty, down to the wealthy businessmen, big landowners, and gentry in the area near Tianjin, almost every day
Someone I don’t know came to visit Liu Jin.
At the same time, many people came to visit the Tianjin Shipyard and placed orders with the shipyard.
Especially the locals from Tianjin come the most, because now the whole Tianjin knows everything that happens here in Tianjin Port. A fishing boat goes out to sea to fish, and can bring back more than 100,000 kilograms of sea fish in one day. The whole Tianjin
They all exude the fishy smell of sea fish.
At the same time, it also allows people in Tianjin to see the huge wealth contained in the ocean. You can make a fortune just by fishing at sea, not to mention that you can also do business at sea, and you can make a lot of money just by going to North Korea.
In the past, because the sea was banned, even if everyone was jealous, there was nothing they could do because they did not dare to go to sea privately, but now it is different.
As the fishing ban was lifted, news spread about Tianjin as a pilot project. Everyone was immediately excited and rushed to Tianjin as soon as possible.
Not only the people here in Tianjin, but well-informed businessmen, especially the northern businessmen, gentry, etc. are very excited. This sea trip used to be exclusive to southerners, but it is different now. The fishing ban has been lifted.
, Tianjin is a pilot area, and people from the north will naturally benefit the most, and they can legitimately go overseas to do business in Tianjin.
In just a few days, people who came to Tianjin from all over the country witnessed with their own eyes the grand scene of fishing boats returning to the sea. After seeing the mountains of sea fish, they all placed orders with the shipyard.
Twenty thousand taels of fishing boats are simply not enough to sell. Orders are suddenly queued up to next year, like cabbage. Some powerful people want to buy several boats with just one mouth. This shows that the wealth of the entire Ming Dynasty is actually hidden among the people.
