Chapter 28 The power of technology

Time is like the wind, and it is already the end of August in the first year of Chongzhen.

With the rumbling sound of engines, a series of eight green-bottomed fishing boats lined up and docked at Sanshansuo's shore pier.

This is the third time the fishing fleet has returned from fishing after nearly a month of rapid training.

"High and dive."

"My slave is here."

Li Yunze raised his hand and patted the shoulder of the eunuch who was bowing to salute. Li Yunze said kindly, "I will leave the matters here to you from now on. Don't let me down."

Gao Qiqian immediately saluted, "This slave will live up to the emperor's trust!"

Li Yunze did not discriminate against eunuchs.

As long as the work can be completed successfully, he will not hesitate to reuse it.

Even though Gao Qiqian had a very bad reputation in history and had tricked Lu Xiangsheng to death, Li Yunze still used him to do things after careful selection.

The reason is very simple. This guy does have some ability. Among the eunuchs accompanying him, he learns the fastest and does the best. Naturally, he was chosen to take charge of this matter.

"You know my rules."

The beating that should be given is indispensable. "If there is something illegal, then just jump into the sea yourself."

Gao Qiqian kowtowed heavily, "I don't dare."

He really didn't dare to follow the emperor all the way around, and many of the majestic and powerful people in the past were ruined.

The nobles who have inherited it for two hundred years are finished, the officials of the six departments of Yingtian Mansion are finished, and the local tyrants and gentry from all over the country are finished.

How could any of these little eunuchs have the courage to rub the emperor's back?

Just because he worshiped Wang Chengen as his godfather?

Wang Chengen doesn’t even dare!

In principle, Li Yunze pretended not to know about the eunuchs recognizing their father as their son.

This is their professional habit, and there is no need for industry personnel to talk too much.

"When fishing boats go to sea, each boat must have an accompanying sergeant, one to supervise and the other to protect."

"When the fishing boat returns to port, half of the catch is divided between the fishermen and the sergeants of the Sanshan Institute. No matter how much it is, it is essential."

"Safety production is the first priority in the factory. Work according to the rules and regulations, and no deductions are allowed."

"The quality of canned goods must be guaranteed before leaving the factory, and the quality and quantity must be ensured before being shipped to the capital."

"Can you do this?"

Gao Qiqian's head was already buried in the ground. "Please rest assured, Your Majesty, I can do it!"

"In that case, let's do the work. If you stay here for five years, and after five years someone will be sent to rotate you back to the capital, I will definitely not treat you badly."

"Thank you, Your Majesty for your grace!"

When the fleet docked, the local fishermen, as well as the sergeants and family members of Sanshan Institute, who had been waiting for a long time, still bowed to Li Yunze when facing the steel ship, even if they had seen him many times.

If iron is thrown into water, it will sink immediately.

But with so many big iron ships, they can not only float on the sea, but they can also harvest countless things.

These are all miracles brought about by the Holy Emperor.

Everyone swarmed forward, took over the catches unloaded from the fishing boats, and began to sort them quickly.

These catches mainly include silver pomfret, eels, Spanish mackerel, yellow catfish, green and yellow catfish, anchovies, sardines, etc.

Half of it was divided between local fishermen and the sergeants of Sanshan Institute.

They are the main fishermen and guards on fishing boats, and this is their wages.

Li Yunze also set the purchase price, and those who are willing to sell can just sell the fish directly to the inner government.

The remaining ones are sent directly to the factory in Sanshansuo not far away for processing.

As for the large yellow croaker, small yellow croaker, various large lobsters and so on in the living water tank on the fishing boat, Li Yunze needs to look at them and select the best ones to bring to the modern world for sale.

Especially those large yellow croakers that are more than half a meter long and have a golden belly, they are really valuable.

Sanshan Institute is right on the edge of Hangzhou Bay, and just out to sea is the Zhoushan Fishing Ground. Getting out and back is very fast.

Under the dense and fine nets of fishing boats in the modern world, countless precious large and small yellow croakers are caught, but Li Yunze only wants the best.

Carefully selected large and small yellow croakers and lobsters were packed in live water boxes and transported by horse-drawn carriage to a closed warehouse in the health center.

Li Yunze followed Li Yunze and asked everyone to leave, then opened the space-time door and transported it to the opposite warehouse.

Looking at the fish splashing in the water in the box, Li Yunze slowly lit a cigarette.

After smoking, he stamped out the cigarette butt, took out his mobile phone that was reconnected to the network, and called the security captain of the warehouse.

"Let them in."

In a short time, a large group of people poured into the warehouse.

"Boss Li, congratulations on getting rich."

With smiles on their faces, everyone stepped forward to greet Li Yunze.

Li Yunze waved his hand casually, "Boss, let's make a fortune together."

Signaling to the many water tanks behind him, "Old rules, everyone chooses, the one with the highest price gets it."

His fishery company has already become famous for its ability to supply scarce supplies in large quantities.

At the beginning, Li Yunze did business with aquatic products companies and sold his catch directly to aquatic products companies.

But aquatic products companies want to make more money, so they keep lowering prices.

How could Li Yunze be so angry? He immediately terminated the cooperation and started his own aquatic products company.

After proactively contacting major restaurants and letting them see your goods, sales channels were immediately opened.

As the saying goes, the most indispensable thing in this metropolis is rich people.

The quality of Li Yunze's catch was so high that major restaurants competed for it, and even high-end restaurants in other major cities sent people to fly over directly to purchase the goods.

A few days ago, the aquatic products company was so angry that they asked someone to come and cause trouble. Li Yunze simply recruited people to form a security team to protect the warehouse.

Buyers swarmed forward, their eyes shining brightly at the abundant catch in front of them.

There are too many rich people, and the supply of high-quality fish may be reduced with large-scale fishing.

At this time, there are so many high-quality goods, and it is immediately a matter of competition between you and me.

Especially the large yellow croaker, which is more than half a meter long, and the large lobster, which is as big as an arm, are so rare.

Li Yunze smiled as he watched everyone compete to bid, "It's good if there are no second-rate dealers."

The price is agreed upon and the payment is received on the spot.

After the catch was taken away, Li Yunze was not in a hurry to go back. Instead, he left the warehouse and got in the car and went to the seaport company that owns all the dock warehouses here.

"Li Sheng, welcome."

"Zheng Sheng, you're welcome."

After a few simple greetings, the beautiful female secretary brought tea.

"Li Sheng, this is the top-quality Hangzhou Longjing that I asked someone to buy." Boss Zheng proudly stretched out his hand to indicate, "It's rare to see it on the market."

Li Yunze picked up the teacup without saying a word and smiled.

He took a sip, and after a moment he nodded politely, "It's okay."

It's really just okay. What he drank during the Ming Dynasty was real tribute tea, the best kind that didn't use chemical fertilizers or pesticides.

After some polite remarks, we started to get down to business.

"Zheng Sheng, I have expressed my intention before. Can your company's dock warehouse be transferred?"

Buying the dock outright would save Li Yunze a lot of trouble.

"I'm really sorry." Zheng Sheng shook his head repeatedly. "Our dock warehouse is only for rent, not for sale. But since Li Sheng came here in person, I still have to give him face. I am willing to reduce the rent by two points."

"Thank you then."

Li Yunze didn't talk nonsense and left after chatting for a few words.

The so-called "rent only but not for sale" basically means that the money is not in place.

If you really offer a price that no one can refuse, let alone the warehouse, the dock can also be sold.

Li Yunze, who returned to the Ming Dynasty, walked into the fish processing factory built in the health center and carefully inspected it from beginning to end.

This factory is not high-tech. It is mainly manual work. After cutting off the head and tail and removing the internal organs, it is sent to the machine for processing, adding spices, sugar, salt, etc. to make canned fish.

Canned skins are ordered by the modern world. There are a lot of them and you can just add more when they are used up. All kinds of materials can be bought with money.

The real trouble lies in the power required to drive the machine.
