"If these thieves are eyeing you, the consequences will be different. The thieves' eyes are poisonous. You can follow whoever has money. It's very hateful!"

"To be honest, I live in Xinfucheng these days, and my heart is not stable. I am afraid that when someone will jump out of me and stab me a few times. Even Xinfucheng is like this, so don't say it's at sea. Your Lin brothers have suffered a great loss at sea. Therefore, I hope you will not suffer any further in the future."

Lin Huquan looked relaxed and said with a smile: "What's the big deal? No matter what, our Lin family has been living on the sea for so many years. Are there not many people who can help you? Whether it is the underworld, the white road, or we ourselves are all good-for-all. In fact, we are afraid of meeting Westerners, otherwise there is nothing to be afraid of."

"Although the pirates of the Koreans and the Japanese are powerful, they are already familiar with each other. Because of business dealings, their merchants also pay great attention to protecting our safety. If we are robbed, not only will we lose a lot, but their losses will be even greater. Our Qing Dynasty is different from them. We have everything and everything, and whether we do business with them is just to give them face. If we leave us, they are most anxious."

"If we leave them, they will not be able to buy our goods, or they can only travel thousands of miles to our sea area to buy goods, and the cost will be more than half of it. This is the case for us in the Qing Dynasty. It doesn't matter whether we do business or not with foreigners. How much money can the foreign countries have? If we can do business well in the Beijing to Jiangnan and then to Lingnan, it would be good."

Lin Huquan said that the Qing Dynasty was not good, but in this era, it still had an absolute leadership position in the Eastern world. Even if it was not good in Southeast Asia, it was a complete boss in East Asia. How much money and couples do you have, the Qing Dynasty didn’t care at all. If you want to make a good fortune, the key is still in our hands. The Qing Dynasty has a decisive position and there is no need to worry about not having business.

Chen Shiqing smiled and said, "It is of course a good thing to have such a status, but we cannot rely on such a status to live for the rest of our lives. We still need to consider what we need clearly. To be honest, I think now that our Qing Dynasty is worse than other countries. If you go to Japan and Korea, will you see that there is no sea defense in their waters? Can other people's ships drive in at will? But what about our Qing Dynasty? Alas, what should I say, sigh."

Lin Huquan has not seen a man who is as ambitious and responsible as Chen Shiqing, or an official in decades. So when he sees Chen Shiqing, he always inspires some heroic feelings in his heart. In this day when material desires are rampant and everyone is fighting for their own interests, Chen Shiqing is so good that he will fight for others. It makes people feel that Chen Shiqing is really an ambitious and good young man. Maybe the revival of the Qing Dynasty is in the hands of this relative?

Lin Huquan was used to seeing the Qianlong Dynasty and the corruption of the Qianlong Dynasty. However, Chen Shiqing, who was upright and always had his own ideas, did not seek selfish interests, but just for justice, and he gained his favor more and more. His idea of ​​being a black man in the world also changed. Perhaps it was really a change, and Chen Shiqing was different.

"Boss Lin, why have I never seen these ships? Didn't they come to us for business?" Chen Shiqing asked, pointing to several large ships on the other side of the wharf.

It is said that it is a large ship that is actually more than 300 tons of tonnage, but it is not small. In the Qing Dynasty, the merchant ships with more than 300 tons of tons belonged to the Ferrari-level presence, and it will definitely not make people think that this is a small boat. When Chen Shiqing saw these ships, he was also shocked by their scale. It is not easy for ordinary merchant ships to have such a scale. There are not many ships with more than 300 tons in the Lin family fleet. Although the total number of ships in their Lin family fleet is large, most of them are low in tonnage.

Chen Shiqing sometimes admires the people of the Lin family fleet. They only have to go to Japan and North Korea to do business, and they also have to use merchant ships to have armed forces to do armed merchant ships. This difficulty is not something that ordinary people can imagine. It can be seen that it is not easy for the Lin family fleet to live on the sea. Outsiders often only see the glorious side of their Lin family fleet. How could they think of the moments when their Lin family fleet suffered losses and were humiliated?

"Sir, this seems to be a ship from Shandong. I think the style of the ship is more like that of the other side. In fact, there are quite a few merchant ships from other places recently. On the one hand, our cargo purchase volume is large, and to build a new city, we always need to buy and sell a lot of things. On the other hand, we are a good place, a town of fish and rice, and then the largest salt field in the Qing Dynasty. There are also many salt exports. Although the salt here is not as expensive as the Qing salt in Qinghai, the salt there is on the one hand, and the road is long and there is no supply at all. The emperor is still the same, but the people cannot afford it."

"After I can't afford it, I can only think about the salt from our salt farm. Our salt is being transported out every day, which can earn a lot of money for adults. In fact, as long as we keep the salt farm, we will not be able to finish our business, and good days are still coming. If we can transport grain and cotton from sea to Jiangnan, it will be even more unlucky!" Lin Huquan said proudly.

This is not bad. The textile industry in Jiangnan is developed and requires a lot of cotton. At the same time, Jiangnan is also a hometown of fish and rice. In addition, it is a water town and the Qiantang River Grand Canal of the Yangtze River. The water transportation is boundless. Therefore, the textile industry and the rice market have always been the two pillar industries in Jiangnan.

In fact, Chen Shiqing thought about it. Many cotton in Jiangnan actually came from Shandong. Shandong's canals are also very developed. Jining Mansion developed specifically by canals. However, in Chen Shiqing's view, due to the sea ban, the shipping trade with cheaper freight costs has been banned, or it has almost been abolished. Chen Shiqing's plan was to obtain benefits through sea transportation. Although the canal is cheap and convenient, it is only compared with inland transportation. Compared with sea transportation, he cannot do it.

If possible, Chen Shiqing hopes to monopolize the national maritime trade. This is a huge tool for the imperial court to make money, and no local tyrants can join it. Otherwise, if the serious situation of Jiangnan chaebol groups in the Ming and Qing dynasties confronting the imperial court, the losses will be China's own strength, and internal friction will not be allowed.

Wealth can be among the people or in the government. As long as it is used well, it will be similar. For ordinary people, if the government has money, it can be corruption, or it can be high welfare benefits. If the people are rich, it may be because the people are rich, or it may be because the poor are polarized, resulting in a situation where a rich second generation is one hundred poor second generation.

Therefore, wealth is not a very serious problem or unacceptable. Wealth may not fall into your hands among the people. Why is the Anti-monopoly Law introduced? Two to three people who are very good at doing business will appear in front of them. In front of them, you have no ability to resist. They gradually become rich and become local tyrants. Since wealth is among the people, the country may not be able to do anything, and eventually form a powerful class. It depends on what you do. Can you beat others? The government can't beat them.

Wealth is in the country, at least power will also be in the country, which will lead to a comprehensive suppression of the people. Everyone will live in front of the country as a boss, which is fair and doesn't matter. The rich people dare not go too far, and the poor will not be killed, and the rich people do not need to be jailed so exaggerated. As for the country, don't mess with him.

Wealth can be decentralized, but power cannot be decentralized.

Marine transportation trade is a piece of fat, but it is also a blank. Chen Shiqing and the court have the opportunity to completely monopolize this market and prevent the chaebols from having the opportunity to come into troubled waters to catch up.

"Shandong's ships? The Shandong fleet looks like it's good to do business. So good, let's go and help. I said, Mr. Lin, you often run on the sea and are more familiar with the sea business than me. I believe you know that if you go to North Korea, the Shandong Peninsula is more convenient and much closer. Of course, the Liaodong Peninsula is more convenient and you can directly take the land route. So, in the future, the Liaodong and Shandong peninsula should be the world of our Haizhou Prefecture fleet." Chen Shiqing reminded.

Lin Huquan was stunned after hearing this and asked blankly: "Sir, what sir, are you kidding? We from Haizhou Prefecture, go to grab business with other provinces? This is not a joke. Why should we grab business from Shandong people? It would be nice if the Shandong people didn't grab business with us. We would allow us to go to their territory to grab business? Tell me, what I am most worried about is that when I meet these people who grab business, I am not afraid of pirates or pirates."

"We have a way to deal with pirates or pirates, but it is different from businessmen. We have a life-and-death relationship. If you have more, he will be less. He stares at your meat, and you stare at his meat. This is an irreconcilable contradiction. In fact, what I am afraid of is that after our business starts, these colleagues from all provinces and governments will see that we have money and do their business well, and they will use all their best to compete with us. That is what I worry about."

Chen Shiqing smiled and said, "What are you worried about? Are you worried about choking when you put big fat meat in front of you? Who said we can't do business outside the country?"

Chen Shiqing is a modern person. Not to mention doing business across regions, even cross-border businesses are a piece of cake. In the globalized world, foreign capital is welcomed, so where is there a reason to reject foreign capital? Chen Shiqing is very clear about this point, and he does not intend to reject this. China has risen by globalization, and he also wants it. In fact, the West has risen by globalization, but he did not expect that China and Japan will be prosperous in the end.

"Sir, the situation is different from place to place. People have their own rules. We have our rules. This matter is not so easy to reconcile. If people don't want to, it's useless to say anything. If people are willing, it's just to look at the faces of Shandong people. Shandong's governments and Shandong's wealthy businessmen treat us as chores. How could we make a big profit? It's not that everyone says that the wealth will not flow to outsiders' fields!" Lin Huquan said earnestly, why are you not enlightened? You still like to be whimsical when you are so adult. Do you think you are still young!

"It's not that we can't do business outside the country, but some of our businessmen always like not to treat themselves as Shandong people. Look at why Hui merchants and Shanxi merchants can travel all over the world? Even if they actively integrate into local business, after you arrive at the dock in Shandong, you must also understand that we are not going to compete with Shandong people for business, not to let Shandong people have no food to eat and let their fleets close, but to let their boss be us, and we still do the work for him. That's right."

"Don't always think about local people. Workers use local people. If you do this, people will certainly think you are an outsider. If you say, how many officials are local people, then who will say what you are not local people? We don't want your words? To put it bluntly, where is the boss from, it doesn't matter. The boss can bring some trust in the boss, but they can't be outsiders. That's not the living space that oppresses local people? Do you think they are thrown to you for nothing?" Chen Shiqing smiled.

"What do you mean by sir?" Lin Huquan asked blankly.

"It's very simple. We should treat ourselves as people and do things well. You see, our business is going to grow bigger now. Can you think of using Liaodong and Shandong as the basis and fulcrum to be our business transit station in the future. Once the two places are stuck together, it will lock the throat of the capital and it will definitely suppress North Korea's business. Don't the locals need us in their lives? Their cotton does not need to be transported to Jiangnan for sale? Their grain does not need to be transported to Jiangnan? Everyone has benefits, so just do this role well. From now on, the seas of the Qing Dynasty and the seas of the world are ours, and they are all from our Haizhou Prefecture!" Chen Shiqing laughed.

Lin Huquan shook his head speechlessly and said, "Oh, the world has changed too quickly. Obviously, I can't keep up with the steps of adults. But no matter what, it's good for adults to have this confidence. After all, many things require self-confidence, and what adults do are things that others think are impossible, but adults have done well. With this, I believe that adults' abilities will give us a satisfactory return."

Chen Shiqing smiled and said, "These ships, Shandong ships, have found a way to acquire them, and gradually expand their business to Shandong. Of course, this matter can be pushed forward. It is not the time yet. Now we have not handled our own broken things clearly. Where can we have the ability to deal with other people's affairs? You can ask about the business route to Jiangnan first, take your time. After you have the escort of the Haizhou Navy, let you go further to do business."

Lin Huquan likes to listen to these more realistic words, and does not like the splashy articles Chen Shiqing said. When he mentioned this actual benefit, Lin Huquan became interested and said with a smile: "Your sir is right. Only by doing your duty can you be able to consider more things. Now it seems that we are doing well. Whether it is us or others, at least we are dealing well now. Don't worry, the villain will give you a satisfactory answer."

Chen Shiqing let out a long sigh, looked back at the Xinfucheng, which was being built in a hurry and countless buildings were accelerating construction, and looked at the busy freight scenes on the dock, and was very satisfied. In order to allow the goods from the mainland of Haizhou Prefecture to be transported out to the sea faster, he also carried out dredging projects for the rivers in Haizhou Prefecture. In this way, the future goods can go directly to the sea without the need for land and sea transportation, saving a lot of costs.

This is not the solution to the freight of Haizhou Prefecture. The key is that there are many cities along the canal. In the future, they can go directly to the rivers of Haizhou Prefecture to the sea, and then use half the cheaper freight cost to transport the goods to the destination. Because the rivers of Haizhou Prefecture are still interconnected with the canal, and the greatest value of the canal is that they are interconnected, not **. Otherwise, they are at most worth the same as rivers such as the Yellow River and the Yangtze River. How could they directly play the role of a major artery that communicates between the north and the south?

His greatest value lies in communicating with dozens of prefectures, prefectures, and counties, which have gained new life, completely changed their logistics landscape, and made all parts of the country a real Jiangnan water town.

"Do we go over and take a look? After all, this is a foreign merchant. One of you and I is a local parent official and the other is a local fleet boss. It seems unreasonable if you don't support others!" Chen Shiqing said with a smile.

"Okay, I think we should go there for a while, otherwise, Shandong people would think that we are all stingy people. Let's go." Lin Huquan also said with a smile.

He was not worried about any security issues. On land, no one would think of bullying the Qing government troops, let alone the Baihu Camp and the Lin Family Guards team were by their side, which was very safe.

Merchant ships in Shandong are lined up to carry goods, bringing them down, and then transporting the goods they need to purchase. In this way, countless benefits will arise.
