Chapter 1316 Lifting the Three-Foot Sword, Unrivaled Merit
Guan Hai also worked very hard in Yizhou. He trained many veterans of Cao's army as escorts and smelted a large number of copper ingots. But really speaking, Guan Hai really didn't want to stay in Yizhou anymore.
It's so boring.
Although Gan Ning and Tai Shi Ci appeared every few months to bring him some recent news, this could not alleviate Guan Hai's worries at all. He really wanted to see how the brothers were living in the past, instead of just listening to others.
Talk about it.
Ever since he chose death to save all the Yellow Turbans, Guan Hai's perspective on the problem has changed a lot. At least he knows what is important and what is important, and his mind is clear.
"We are fighting foreigners. Can I go back then? I want to see Mount Tai and Qingzhou." Guan Hai's voice was slightly low.
"With your strength, be careful and you won't be exposed. Then you can go and see for yourself. In two years, you can show up in front of others." Gan Ning's mind is very active, and he naturally understands Guan Hai's purpose.
So he said with a smile.
Guan Hai was obviously relieved after hearing these words. Although he also knew Liu Bei's kindness, but after such a long time, Liu Bei might have changed. Gan Ning once told him that Liu Bei had defeated Yuan Shao in the north and won the victory.
I landed in the richest place in the world.
"Then should I go to the South China Sea with you two now, or should I wait here for you two to come back." Guan Hai rubbed his hands and asked. He heard that he could go back and see his former brothers. Although he could not be discovered by them, he
Still very happy.
"No need, Ziyi and I will go to Nanhai. Zifang and Wen Xiang will stay here. When we came this time, we have brought the mother's money and are going to cast it directly into five baht coins here." Gan Ning said.
He waved his hand and sent Guan Hai away. He and Tai Shici were going to fetch spices this time.
On certain islands in the south, spices are as lush as grass. When I went to Luzon last year, they transported several large ships full of them to Mount Tai. The Lu family shipyard was building sea-going ships day and night because Gan Ning was so eager to load them.
Invest money.
Without the money for spices, the tens of millions in cash Chen Xi allocated to Gan Ning would only be enough to launch one or two large ships. After that, he would probably have to pay on credit.
It can be said that the most handsome person living now is Gan Ning, the navy chief. He has money, ships and people, and his financial resources have always been good. He has even begun to support the central government.
Of course, this was all thanks to Mi Fang, who was in charge of logistics. If it had been someone else, Gan Ning, the hands-off boss, would have embezzled most of the military expenses. Now, not only were warships being thrown into the sea like dumplings, Mi Fang could also come up with money.
Deny the Qingzhou coastal economy.
The Mi family had never suffered a disaster, and a guy like Mi Fang didn't know what it was like to be short of money. Of course, Mi Fang still didn't let the navy do business.
It is estimated that Gan Ning felt that the combat effectiveness of the fighting navy and the profitable navy were too different, so he later divided the navy into two parts. One part was only responsible for fighting, and the other part was like a civilian in the army, doing some part-time work.
Anyway, for combat positions, Gan Ning does not allow him to have any connection with business. As for Mi Fang, Gan Ning is positioned as the logistics manager. Don't go to the battlefield. Just make sure that you can get whatever our navy needs. We will distribute it when the time comes.
You will never be left out when the credit is due.
Mi Fang also completed this task very well. Lu Su would not approve the supplies, so Mi Fang just spent money to buy them. There is a brother who holds the Chamber of Commerce. I have never seen anything that cannot be bought, including prohibited items.
Yes, you can also buy it at Fenggao for money.
The integrity of a businessman is really no different sometimes. Regarding the sale of large quantities of prohibited items such as crossbows, steel, etc., Chen Xi always eats as much as he can, but if you sell it, I'm sorry, someone will report you.
Smuggling, we need to shut it down.
"Brother Guan, our brothers have been causing trouble for a while." Mi Fang greeted Guan Hai with a smile after Gan Ning and Tai Shici left. As a young man, she still admired Guan Hai very much for a strong man like Guan Hai who sacrificed his life for righteousness.
"What's the matter? Let's go. I'll take you to count the copper ingots. Luzon is a really nice place. The copper mines on the entire island are of very good quality. Just a little smelting will do it." Guan Hai was led by a group of Feng Shui masters for a long time.
I also know how to open mountains and mine.
"Haha, I have been to that place once. The whole island is like a copper block." Mi Fang said with a smile, "I will have people carry the mold over first. In Yizhou, we need to mint 300 million yuan of new money this time.
, this time I specially found an old craftsman who is proficient in making money."
"Don't worry, there are enough copper ingots. We have accumulated a large amount of copper ingots. Qingzhuang and I have nothing to do with these. We can only smelt copper ore, and a lot of copper ore has been transported, so we have accumulated quite a lot of copper ingots so far.
Amount of copper ingots." Guan Hai said nonchalantly.
To be honest, Guan Hai's concept of copper coins has been mostly wiped out by now. There is no way for anyone to squat in a pile of money every day. As time goes by, his concept of money has become much weaker.
On the sea, Gan Ning and Tai Shi Ci headed towards the sea unhurriedly.
"Xingba, do you have any ambitions?" Taishi Ci suddenly asked while standing on the edge of the boat.
"My previous ambition was to travel all over the world, and now I have achieved it. As for my future ambition..." Gan Ning thought for a while and said, "I really don't have one, but I can just follow the military advisor and them. I have always felt that following a smart person
It’s better to walk on your own feet than walking on your own!”
"Do you have any ambitions?" Gan Ning turned his head and asked Tai Shici the same question.
"In the past, it was a man who wielded a three-foot sword and accomplished immortal feats. It is still the same now, but the immortal merits are getting bigger and bigger." Taishi Ci said with a smile.
"Yes, the world is really big. The Central Plains is far from the border of the world. One day my warships will dock at the dock of another empire, and then use my fleet to block the enemy's entry and exit for the country behind me.
." Gan Ning said with a hint of fanaticism after being silent for a while.
"Use warships to blockade another empire?" Taishi Ci thought.
Ever since Taishi Ci was transferred from the army to the navy by Liu Bei, he had some resentment. In his opinion, the navy or navy was really just a kind of auxiliary.
It's okay to transport troops and provide support, but the real winner is the cavalry. The pinnacle of the cold weapon era is the weapon that determines the fate of a dynasty!
Now Gan Ning's words moved Tai Shici's heart. It seems that the naval army is not as good as he thought. It is really touching to blockade another empire or something!
"I have decided to be an excellent naval general in the future. If I mess with you, Xingba, don't let me suffer!" Taishi Ci suddenly turned over and jumped onto the mast, looking at Gan Ning and laughing.
"Of course not. I, Gan Ning, will never treat my own people badly." Gan Ning looked at Tai Shi Ci and said with a smile, "This guy is really easy to fool. Speaking of cavalry and so on, bigger ships can't race."
