As soon as Yu Haining heard this, he turned around and went out to get it immediately.
Zhong Jinwei pushed the two kinds of food to Yan Yingyuan's table and said to him: "Try them."
Yan Yingyuan originally wanted to say that he came here after breakfast and was not hungry. But seeing Zhong Jinwei's serious look, he knew that things might not be that simple.
So, he opened the box, looked at two similar things, picked them up and tasted them respectively, and then looked at Zhong Jinwei, waiting for his explanation.
"Brother-in-law, what do you think of these two foods?" Zhong Jinwei asked.
Yan Yingyuan replied without hesitation: "It's delicious, but this one tastes the best and has a great texture."
Zhong Jinwei only asked whether the food was delicious or not, which had nothing to do with his own needs. After Yan Yingyuan's answer, he couldn't help it anymore and asked Zhong Jinwei: "Brother-in-law, you should help Denglai think of a way.
Solve the difficulties between me and Jiutai!"
When Zhong Jinwei heard this, he laughed and said, "Isn't this just to help you solve your problem? That's it?"
When he said this, he pointed at the two kinds of food on the table.
Yan Yingyuan was even more surprised when he saw it. He asked Zhong Jinwei doubtfully: "You mean to send these food to Denglai?"
Zhong Jinwei smiled after hearing this. He stopped playing riddles and explained to Yan Yingyuan: "No, the state-owned enterprises will make these two kinds of food soon, and the ingredients will be provided by Denglai. This can solve the problem of resettlement of the people in Denglai."
It turned out that he had gone astray. Yan Yingyuan smiled a little sheepishly, then looked at Zhong Jinwei and said, "Brother-in-law, just tell me the whole plan. It's uncomfortable to listen to it without beginning or end."
Zhong Jinwei picked up the things on the table and ate them as snacks. While eating, he said: "These two kinds of food are actually just one kind, called fish floss. It's just that one is refined, and the other is free.
So much effort has gone into it. The price difference between the two types of fish floss is several times higher."
In this way, Yan Yingyuan understood that it turned out that Denglai Fishing was provided to the state-owned enterprise to make fish floss to support himself.
This method is possible. Denglai is a coastal area and also governs various islands. Those people who need to be resettled are more or less familiar with fishing methods. There is just one problem. He said to Zhong Jinwei: "Brother-in-law, Denglai is full of waste and is waiting for improvement.
All supplies are in short supply, including not many fishing boats and nets."
Zhong Jinwei chewed fish floss and said with a smile: "Don't worry about this, everything is provided by state-owned enterprises. Denglai only provides manpower. Those who can go to sea to fish will go to sea to fish. Women, the elderly and children who cannot go to sea to fish will be there."
I should be able to do the work in the fish floss factory, skinning and deboning, and frying fish."
When Yan Yingyuan heard this, he quickly said: "That's no problem, of course it's no problem! Brother-in-law, in this way, you have helped Jiutai solve his biggest problem!"
He first praised Zhong Jinwei, and then immediately leaned his upper body towards Zhong Jinwei and asked: "When will the state-owned enterprises be able to pass by? The sooner the better."
Zhong Jinwei thought for a moment before replying: "In that case, I will go to the palace to meet the saint today and do this immediately."
When Yan Yingyuan heard this, he stood up from his seat with a "whoop" and said eagerly to Zhong Jinwei: "This way I won't waste my brother-in-law's time. There are a lot of things to do at home, and your wedding day is only a few days away.
.”
As soon as Zhong Jinwei saw it, he stood up and said, "Okay, then I will go into the palace to meet the saint."
After Yan Yingyuan returned to his home, he realized that his matter had not been resolved yet, and he had forgotten about it in excitement.
He thought of the child named "Er Gouzi" he saw on the island and the living conditions of other people he saw on the island, and he no longer regretted his forgetfulness.
Zhong Jinwei was very fast. In the afternoon of that day, the matter was approved by Emperor Chongzhen and the cabinet. The envoy rushed to Denglai with the imperial chef and people from state-owned enterprises to start the implementation of the meat floss plan.
After they arrive, Denglai will provide people, and state-owned enterprises will provide technology and funds to produce fish floss. The crude fish floss will account for the majority of the output, and will be provided to the military at a reasonable price. Some crude fish floss will be produced at a reasonable price.
The fish will be purchased by the imperial court and shipped to the mainland for disaster relief. As for the exquisite fish floss made from the best part of the fish, it will be the main source of profit for state-owned enterprises and sold to major cities.
At this time, Zhong Jinwei felt the shortage of manpower in state-owned enterprises, and suggested that Emperor Chongzhen satisfy all the wishes of various yamen to send people into state-owned enterprises. There was only one condition. These people sent in were not to be bosses of state-owned enterprises, but must do practical things.
, otherwise it will not be collected.
Once this was done, it took another two days. Yan Yingyuan came to the door early in the morning and told Zhong Jinwei his suffering.
Yan Yingyuan's problem was nothing more than a shortage of ships and men. Zhong Jinwei told him: "You don't have to worry about the ships. The imperial court will soon build a large number of ships, and it will also require your Denglai navy to be strong enough. Your
Spring is coming."
When Yan Yingyuan heard this, he was happy at first, but immediately felt a lot of pressure.
Originally, he thought that since Jianlu had no water division, he would have enough time to practice the method of water warfare. Yan Yingyuan believed in his ability. As long as he had enough time, he would be able to be the commander of the water camp, and there would be no problem.
But listening to Zhong Jinwei's tone, I was afraid that the Denglai Navy would need to be re-employed and fight a big war. But I came from a land warfare background, and the war at sea was limited to paper talks and lip service at best.
Yan Yingyuan thought of this and said to Zhong Jinwei with a slightly pensive expression: "Brother-in-law, you know my origin and are not familiar with water warfare. If time is tight, I'm afraid I will let down my brother-in-law's expectations."
Zhong Jinwei nodded, thinking about it. In a war, you can't just rely on words to kill the enemy. The situation on this battlefield is also ever-changing, and it is not possible to explain all the situations and response strategies with just words.
Emperor Chongzhen and the civil servants attached great importance to the development of North America, and they all wanted to realize it as soon as possible and ensure that there were no mistakes.
Theoretically speaking, there should be no enemies on the water during the Ming Dynasty's route to North America, except for North Korea and Japan.
Zhong Jinwei frowned when he thought of this. North Korea is now surrendered to Jianlu and can be considered a hostile force.
They had a navy, and they were quite powerful. Zhong Jinwei didn't know much about it, so he asked Yan Yingyuan.
However, Yan Yingyuan had not been in Denglai for a long time and did not know much about it. Zhong Jinwei could not get any information and wanted to give Lu Xiangsheng an additional order to let him investigate the situation in North Korea.
After he wrote this down, he began to worry about another country, Japan. This country was actually the most dangerous.
Whether before the Ming Dynasty or in later generations, knowledgeable people in Japan have tried their best to escape from the barren island and find a mainland to settle down.
On this point, if Zhong Jinwei were asked to think in his shoes, he would do the same thing.
The current domestic situation in Japan is also unclear. If they harass or work with the Ming Dynasty to seize land in North America, it will also bring many variables to the feudal overseas moves of the Ming Dynasty.
Thinking of this, Zhong Jinwei felt that it was necessary to understand the situation in Japan first.
Thinking of this, he couldn't sit still. He asked Yan Yingyuan to go back first. He wanted to rush to the Forbidden City to find Emperor Chongzhen to understand the situation.
