On January 24, Gouyan returned to Hangzhou from the senior official. When he returned, he didn't load any cargo and was almost empty. Even if it was an empty ship, even if it could sail at night, due to the wrong wind direction, Gouyan was forced to take an anti-submarine route on the sea and finally returned to Hangzhou 11 days later.

After a few days of rest in Hangzhou, Gouyan took a newly bought sand boat to the officials without stopping, and passed by two other sand boats that were struggling to fight the submarine on the way.

The two ships transported 1 oo of laborers, as well as rice, some cloth, and daily necessities. The travelers stranded in Hangzhou were all on board this time, including the last little steel and cement reserves, and were all transported to the senior staff.

Dayuan Port is particularly lively today. More than a month ago, two sand boats swore arriving from Hangzhou. Others stood on the shore and waved goodbye. Now everyone gathered on the shore, and the pioneers became boat pickers.

As of this moment of gathering, there were 88 travelers who came to the Ming Dynasty, including Cao Chuan, and the total number of workers controlled by the traveling forces was 750. This number does not include the indigenous and Japanese who could be hired at any time.

In the more than a month since he arrived at the senior officials, the travelers eliminated the Dutch and Japanese forces, and sued the indigenous forces of the Newport Society, so that their government orders could pass through the controlled areas without any obstacles. The reputation of the travelers was well-known among other indigenous people.

Repair the Damen's Store, build two new bases in Kiln District and Chikan, and dredge the Xingang Creek... I think it feels quite accomplished.

That night, Xia Xianze held a banquet, and all the time travelers who were present attended. Before the banquet, President Xia delivered a speech titled "Time is no longer available", calling on all the time travelers to unite, race against time, fight and build while fighting, and strive for everyone's "own career" to the end!

There are whistles and applause.

Several boxes of German stout beer and Niulanshan Erguotou that Mr. Cao had originally approved from the city were swept away that night. In fact, all the wine was drunk. Goodbye, cans of stout beer.

The next morning, the general meeting of shareholders was held in the large office on time. The meeting was broadcast live on the forum, mainly to announce the company's background and discuss the next plan.

There are 550,000 taels of silver in the company's accounts, and 220,000 taels of these silver are old-fashioned silver bars and silver coins for the Dutch and Japanese.

The rest were silver ingots and silver bars that Mr. Cao 6 had been rushing from later generations. At first, Mr. Cao brought 50 taels of silver ingots. Later, after the cabin was tight, it was changed to 925 silver bars. The travelers mixed some lead and tin and then cast them into ingots. Later, the cabin was even more tense, and some silver bars were replaced by pearl necklaces.

A perfect circle (travel bead) with good quality and 1 cm diameter Wuxian Nuclear-free breeding pearls can easily sell 50 to 70 taels of silver in Hangzhou. However, the pearl is a progressive product. The same pearl is decorated with 10 pearls, which can be bought with 50 taels of silver, but the size of 10 pearls is very small, smaller than the 50 taels of silver ingots, which can save space.

In addition to slower cashing, pearls are much more cost-effective than silver, so the company now has hundreds of pearls of various colors. The above can be seen as cash assets for traveling through the times.

......

Various imported materials are controlled by the "Importing Materials Management Committee", the first key department of the time-traveling force. Of course, the chairman must be Xia Xianze, which is a must-have housekeeping object for the top leader.

Xia Xianze then posted the list of supplies on the forum. In fact, the shareholders still have a lot of information about the supplies in the warehouse, because every time the boxes brought by Cao Chuan are moved and unloaded by travelers themselves.

The 22 cubic meters are equivalent to the transportation volume of a medium-sized container of goods. At the beginning, they rushed up. Later, Lao Xia used to steal cigarettes while unloading, so they changed to designated personnel to load and unload, but others can watch, so everyone knows what goods are there.

There are many types of goods list, including guns, ammunition, medicines, steel and cement, and mechanical accessories. The above are bulk items. Other daily necessities are also reserved, which are essentially distributed on demand. For example, travelers working in the field can apply for hiking shoes, which will be decided by the committee.

The food has long been gone, and I just finished drinking the wine yesterday, so I crossed it off the list.

There are only so many families in total. Since Cao Chuan's first time travel, all the materials he has saved have been here.

......

There was no gold on the company's books, and all the gold was taken away by Cao Chuan. The things Cao Chuan took away from the Ming Dynasty also included mahogany furniture, seal stones, and a small amount of groceries.

In general, Cao Chuan has some free return space in the nearest return class.

After the initial crazy expansion, the commercial empire established by Cao Chuan in later generations has entered a stable operation stage. Several furniture factories with different brands at home and abroad, several antique shops at home and abroad, two small auction houses that secretly hold shares, are distributed in some warehouses and real estate in various places, and many shell companies...

In this case, complete sets of mahogany antique furniture that are easy to attract attention and high-quality bloodstone are no longer the items that Cao Chuan has priority collection. On the contrary, some inconspicuous mahogany strips are the best choice.

These original strips can be silently turned into modern high-end furniture and appear in some ordinary furniture cities. Although the profit is a little less, it is relatively and stable and safe. You should know that the furniture brands he acquired are also more or less profitable.

This time, the official from Dogyan brought twelve cubic ramen strips with the boat. As for mahogany furniture, there was only one set, and too many were useless. Now it would take a long time to organize an auction.

Due to latitude issues in Taiwan, there are not a large number of mahogany produced, and occasionally there are a few, which is not worth looking for in the dense forest. The most expensive wood found locally is Taiwanese ebony. This ebony is not expensive and sold in tons, unlike those rosewoods sold in pounds.

So in the next period of time, Caochuan's plane trading will have a period of no money-the kiln area will be almost completed.

At that time, Cao Chuan will send the prepared expensive industrial equipment many times in a day.

The equipment has long been listed by Zou Guoqing and others. In order to operate as long as possible in the Middle Ages, the equipment and accessories were high-end products that were brainlessly selected. If time is too late, some accessories were customized.

Even if a common brick making machine in rural areas is from Swedish skF, the mold is from Sweden, and the motor is from Siemens... This abnormal thing makes the purchasing manager hired by Cao Chuan puzzled, full of doubts and full of doubts.
