“There are many shipyards along the river and the sea. There are ten shipyards in Yangzi Town, Jiangyang County, Yangzhou alone.
The shipbuilding yards in Xuzhou have continuously built more than 500 large floating ships. Since the Zhenguan Year, many new shipyards have been built in Jiangnan, Rao and Jiangzhou. These three states alone can build more than 400 ships in a year.
A boat is coming,
In addition, there are many shipyards in other Jiuzhou in the south of the Yangtze River and along the Yangtze River, and the number is still increasing every year.
There are also many shipyards along the coast, such as Dengzhou, Hangzhou, Fuzhou, Zhangzhou, Guangzhou, Jiaozhou..."
The Tang Dynasty was now at peace, and industry and commerce were booming. Although the north was more important, the south was also developing rapidly, especially the coastal areas along the rivers, which were rising rapidly with the help of industry and commerce.
Rivers and seas are convenient and rely heavily on boats.
Traffic and transportation are very important for the circulation of commercial goods. Wu Huaiyu has also begun to invest in shipyards and shipping industries in recent years, and has built his own warehousing at water and land terminals on major transportation lines, and started his own warehousing and logistics.
The self-built logistics system is very important for Nongwujia's business map, as it can make them faster and more efficient.
"I plan to build a new shipyard in Zhangzhou. You can help me recruit craftsmen from various shipyards. Money is not an issue. I can recruit people with a lot of money. Zhangzhou will also arrange food and accommodation for everyone,"
Wu Huaiyu Zhangzhou Shipyard has prepared all the ship types to be built. It will first build a batch of offshore ships, building ships, stern ships, fighting ships, walking boats, yachts and sea falcons.
These six types of ships are combat ships, which are basically improved on the basis of existing warships.
These ships were built to prepare for the expansion of Penghu, Liuqiu, Hainan and Luzon.
Although there are many barbarians on these large islands, their navigation skills are average, so they do not need too advanced and large warships. The first thing to consider is wind and wave resistance and high maneuverability, as well as some transportation. It is best to be able to enter the inland river for fighting.
, so a ship that is too big is not an advantage.
The red thread is leaning on Huaiyu's chest, reluctant to get up,
Just listening to his words, one hand couldn't help but scratch his chest hair, and I couldn't help but get distracted. Why do you have such a large chest hair? He is such a strong man.
"The next step is for us to build ships in Fuzhou. There is a long history of shipbuilding there and there are many shipwrights there. There are large ships there to prepare for ocean trade,"
Fuzhou Shipyard had already thought about the type of ship it wanted to build, and built a giant ocean-going ship that sailed to the Persian Gulf in the Song Dynasty. It had three decks, four levels of cabins, fifty to one hundred rooms, and four to six masts.
Each ship has eight to ten oars, with four people per oar, and even a twenty-oar ship can be built. The hull is divided into many watertight compartments using multiple watertight partitions, so that if one or two compartments are damaged and flooded, they will not sink.
He also planned to build a shipyard in Xiangdao, Guangzhou.
"Well, I will follow Alang's orders," Hongxian responded,
"Next, our shipbuilding and shipping will mainly focus on three lines, one is the Yangtze River route, the second is the canal route, and then the coastal route. The three major routes create different fleets. We mainly engage in long-distance shipping,"
The large boats and sails are 100 feet high, and long-distance transportation on inland rivers requires large tonnage to be cost-effective. For example, the Yangtze River route runs directly from the Yangtze River estuary to the Three Gorges in Jingzhou. As for the Three Gorges and up, a route can be developed later to run exclusively to Sichuan.
In the Chongqing area, the boats must be much smaller.
Each ship has a transport capacity of at least a thousand stones, and if it specializes in traveling to the lower reaches of the Yangtze River, it can even build a giant ship of ten thousand stones.
In the long run, the shipping industry is definitely very promising.
Maritime ocean trade is also high risk with huge profits. Of course, the investment costs in these industries are also high. Shipbuilding takes time, and shipping requires many ships.
Wu Huaiyu had already thought about it. He didn't need to work with the Wu family alone. He could get many people to work together and set up many shipyards and shipping companies. Each shipyard and shipbuilding company could recruit many partners. If there is money, everyone can make money together.
Shipyards, ship shops, craftsmen, boatmen, etc. that are needed in the early stage can recruit people, but in the later stage, they cannot just rely on recruiting, so now they have to start building technician training schools and start training themselves in large quantities.
Huaiyu was planning there, but Hongxian was a little absent-minded.
Snapped,
He slapped her erection, making her cry out in pain and embarrassment.
"I'm telling you something serious,"
"Oh, the slave is wrong, Alang punishes the slave, and beats the slave again."
Huaiyu was a little speechless, so he changed from patting to rubbing, "Let's talk business first."
"Fan Tower in Zhangzhou, I asked Xuanfu to arrange for others to go there and open it,"
"I was wrong,"
"No, I have another important use for you. Next, you will be responsible for recruiting people from shipyards in various places to help us open new shipyards in Zhangzhou, Fuzhou, Jiangzhou, Hongzhou, Xiangdao and other places. At the same time, we will also open schools.
Training in shipbuilding and shipping skills,”
"This task is very heavy. I believe in your ability and loyalty. I will assign a group of manpower to you. You can recruit another group of people. I will also prepare enough start-up funds for you, so you can go ahead and do it."
Hongxian didn't expect Alang to trust her so much. After listening to him describe it for a long time, she knew what a huge plan it was.
"Can I do this?"
"sure."
"I'm just a woman and a widow."
"Women are not inferior to men. When you were on the battlefield in Longyou, I can still remember your momentum of seven in and seven out. This kind of energy will be even more unfavorable in the shopping mall.
Besides, you are still my woman."
The sentence "my woman" brings tears to my eyes.
I thought it was just a night of fun, but I didn't expect him to say this. Even if he has no fame or status, it is still worth it.
"My plan is to establish shipyards in some states along the rivers and seas. We will try our best to recruit as many people as partners, select a few local partners, plus relatives and friends that our Wu family has always had good relations with, and then recruit one or two capital officials.
Noble relative,
Of course, when we bring them into partnership, we must also ensure our absolute control. We must hold at least 60-70% of the shares, and at least no less than 60%. Moreover, these partners should only invest money and distribute dividends, and do not participate in specific business decisions.
,"
These partners belong to silver stocks, and the Wu family is also the largest silver stock.
It is run by a team of professional shopkeepers, who have management rights, own shares, and participate in dividends. The Wu family has formed a team of professional managers.
This was the usual business model of the Wu family in the past. Of course, this team of professional shopkeepers is responsible for the operation, but they are hired by the Wu family and can be fired at any time. Their shares, that is, shares in the position, they have shares when they are on the job, and they have shares when they leave the job.
Of course there is no more.
Huaiyu had no plans to integrate shipyards from various places, nor did he think about integrating shipping. Instead, he would decentralize operations on a state-by-state basis.
This is less risky and gives the Wu family greater control.
Even the technical training school is independent. It only has a cooperative relationship with the shipyard and shipping, and is not subordinate to each other.
Jiang, Bian, He, Wei,
These are several key routes for inland river transportation. The water conditions are different. It is said that river ships cannot enter Bian, Bian ships cannot enter the river, and river ships cannot enter Wei.
They are all shipped in sections and ships.
These are also the rivers with the largest inland shipping traffic in the Tang Dynasty. At this stage, the Lingnan Pearl River is not worth mentioning, and the same is true for the Ganjiang River.
But in the future, shipping on the Gan River and Pearl River will definitely become more and more important.
Hongxian's face was lying on Huaiyu's chest. Hearing the plan, his heart surged involuntarily.
Three poles in the sun,
It's getting late,
Huaiyu is about to get up,
But Hongxian hugged him and refused to let go, "Alang, I want it again."
······
Jiangzhou, Lushan.
Lushan Mountain is an excellent place to escape the heat in midsummer. Not only is the scenery beautiful, but the mountain is also very cool in summer. Wu Huaiyu, the hereditary governor of Jiangzhou, immediately sent people to the mountain to purchase this good place in his territory.
Villa estate.
Regardless of whether this world seal can be retained in the future, the villa purchased will not change.
There are many villas of wealthy families in Lushan Mountain that the Wu family bought ready-made. In fact, many people wanted to give them away, but Wu Huaiyu did not accept them.
He didn't lack the money, so he bought it directly.
It is a great honor for Mr. Wu to pay for it. The original owner of the villa he bought belongs to the Tao family.
The Xunyang Tao family is the most famous family in Jiangzhou. They moved south when the Central Plains gentry in the Wei, Jin, Southern and Northern Dynasties moved southward. The Tao family in Henan and Shandong moved south in a large scale, and many Tao families who originally lived in Huainan also moved to Zhejiang and Jiangxi.
After continuous multiplication, famous families were formed in Zhejiang and Jiangxi, and their descendants became prosperous, forming two Tao clan commanderies in Xunyang and Danyang.
The Tao family of Xunyang has great influence in Jiangzhou and is also the leader of the local famous families. The Chen family of Xunyang, the Zhou family of Xunyang, the Duanmu family of Xunyang, and the Zhai family of Xunyang are also known as the five most famous families in Jiangzhou.
They were married to each other and intertwined, forming a long-term monopoly on one party's power. They were also constantly raising the threshold of each other's aristocratic families, forming prominent local clans.
The solidification of classes and the barriers to family relationships,
In every corner of Jiangzhou, these five aristocratic families cannot be avoided.
Of course, after all, they are just a wealthy family that controls the local area, and they are still not comparable to Wu Huaiyu. They don't dare to fight against the Wu family's sharpness, and they only want to fawn over.
A few families are all trying to fawn over their followers.
Who is Wu Huaiyu? He is still the hereditary governor of Jiangzhou. From now on, the boss of Jiangzhou will be the Wu family of Guojianglong. Even the Tao family must be careful to curry favor.
They didn’t want to take any money for the Lushan villa, and they even wanted to give their daughter as a concubine to Xianggong Wu.
However, the falling flowers are intentional and the flowing water is ruthless.
Of course, when Mr. Wu bought the Tao family villa, it was also to give the Tao family face. Otherwise, wouldn't it be okay to just buy the Zhou family's or the Duanmu's?
Huaiyu finally finished his busy work in Jiangzhou City and came to Lushan Mountain to relax. He also specially posted an invitation to the five famous families in Jiangzhou.
"The sun shines on the incense burner and produces purple smoke, and you can see the waterfall hanging in front of the river in the distance.
The flying stream plummets down three thousand feet, and it is suspected that the Milky Way has fallen into the sky."
Accompanied by powerful men and women from Jiangzhou, Huaiyu visited Mount Lu to see the waterfalls, and amid the compliments of Tao Taigong and others, he actually left a poem.
As soon as "Wanglu Mountain Waterfall" came out, it was just four sentences, but it stunned the five noble families who claimed to be the heirs of farming and reading. It was indeed well-deserved. These four sentences will definitely be famous throughout the ages.
"The Wu family plans to open a shipbuilding factory in Jiangzhou, and it will be a large factory that can build a hundred ships at the same time. I know that you are all famous and wealthy in Jiangzhou, and you are also famous in shipbuilding and shipping and other places.
Very capable of speaking,
I would like to invite you to join forces with five companies including Tao, Zhou and others. Each company will give you half a share. I will invite a few more partners from Chang'an. Let's make it bigger and stronger together and become the largest shipbuilding factory in Jiangzhou."
No one expected that after Wu Huaiyu composed an eternally famous poem under the Lushan Waterfall, he would make such a heart-warming proposal.
The five famous families in Jiangzhou also have their own shipyards, which are not large in scale.
If Wu Huaiyu wants to build a large shipyard, it will undoubtedly have an impact on their shipyard. However, the shipyards in Jiangzhou have never been able to compare with the shipyards in Hongzhou, and they have never been able to grow in scale.
But with Wu Huaiyu taking the lead, they believe they can definitely surpass Hongzhou's shipbuilding yard.
