Chapter 322: Suhang wants to do business again

The young prince hurried to the border, and even bought General Hu's favorite wine. As soon as he reached the border, the young prince hurriedly ran over.

"General Hu, thank you for your hard work. Come and have a few drinks."

Hu Xiaojiang waved his hand and said, "It's not hard work. This is what you should do. Why is the prince here today?"

"Let's see General Hu. By the way, General Hu, can you lend me a moment to speak?"

General Hu handed over his left and right sides, then took the saber and went to another place with the young prince.

"Your Majesty, if you have something to say, you might as well say it directly."

"Seeing that General Hu is a man of gentle breeze and bright moon, I will speak frankly. I want to know how General Hu and my cousin are preparing?"

The young prince didn't say princess, but called him cousin, which made people feel very friendly.

Sure enough, Hu Xiaojiang looked over and said, "My father said that he will still marry the princess as agreed. When the spring comes and the new year passes, the princess will be fifteen years old and her health will be well maintained. I will marry the princess."

Hu Xiaojiang's tone was full of pride.

When the young prince heard this, he sighed and deliberately lowered his head, as if he didn't know what to say.

Hu Xiaojiang frowned and said, "If you have any questions, please speak up. I'm most annoyed by people like this!"

The young prince raised his head and showed a sympathetic look, "But, General Hu, you should know Suhang, right? My cousin likes Suhang. If she doesn't like Suhang, why would my cousin help him like that? Between men and women

But there is no pure friendship! If Suhang becomes stronger, I guess Uncle Wang will marry his cousin to Suhang, right?"

"Impossible! I've seen that Su Hang, he's just a white-faced scholar. When you look at the bed, he looks like a useless rabbit! Hehe, I didn't really teach them how to use warships at all. I taught them blindly.

, they haven’t learned it yet, so the boat in their hands is probably just a means of transportation! Hahahaha..."

The young prince suddenly beamed with joy, "Is this true? General Hu."

"Of course it's true! Why did I lie to you! Am I that stupid? Haha, I won't do what that Su Hang wants! They are just a bunch of stupid pigs!" Hu Xiaojiang gnashed his teeth and cursed angrily.

Look, I really want to tear Su Hang into pieces. Who dares Su Hang to steal a woman from him!

"Hahahaha... this is great! Sure enough, General Hu is really smart, eh! He and my cousin are a match made in heaven! No one can break them apart, and that piece of shit Su Hang is nothing.

, I guess it’s not enough for General Hu to kick him!”

When Hu Xiaojiang heard the prince's flattering rainbow fart, he was so happy that he couldn't say anything. He directly put his arm around the prince's shoulders and insisted on having a few drinks with the prince.

After the prince returned home, he quickly told the Queen Mother and the wise king. When the Queen Mother heard this, she immediately looked up to the sky and laughed happily.

"Aunt, don't worry, this young general Hu is just a stupid pig with well-developed limbs and a simple mind. As long as I use a little words, I can fool him into a daze!"

"Well, my nephew is really smart!" the Queen Mother praised.

Afterwards, the Queen Mother quickly wrote two letters to the King of Yunnan, one was an ordinary greeting letter, and the other was to tell the King of Yunnan that the people in Suhang did not know how to use warships, so that the King of Yunnan could send people directly without any worries.

Jiangnan Mansion attacks Suhang and the Little Emperor!

However, in view of the fact that the letter written by her brother before was intercepted, the Queen Mother learned to be smart this time and said to the wise king, "Brother, let's pretend to send this ordinary letter of greetings first, and then send people to follow closely. See

Find out who is intercepting our letters, then catch him and deal with him immediately, so as to avoid inconvenience in writing letters between you and me in the future!"

"What my sister said is absolutely true. I also want to catch this person! My son, please send someone to deliver this fake letter quickly, and then send another person to keep a close watch on him. You must find out the person who intercepted our letter!

"

"Okay, Father."

While these people were still fighting among themselves, Suhang's pearl processing factory in Jiangnan Prefecture opened gloriously. On the opening day, gongs and drums were loud and a large number of workers were attracted. Many craftsmen who processed pearls were also hired and given high wages.

.

In fact, the status of these craftsmen was very low under the ancient hierarchy of scholars, farmers, industrialists and merchants. However, Suzhou and Hangzhou directly gave them high treatment in an official manner, which was equivalent to encouraging the poor to learn a craft if they could not study.

Not bad either.

Moreover, old craftsmen are encouraged to bring in new ones, and each one will be rewarded with one tael of silver, which greatly encourages the enthusiasm of those craftsmen.

For a time, the pearl processing factory became in full swing.

Just like those assembly lines, each worker does his own thing and everyone is doing one of the processes.

The first step is to buy clams from Haihe River from those fishermen. There are some fishermen in Jiangnan Prefecture who specialize in salvaging clams for a living. Naturally, they can also pry open the clam shells to get the pearls.

After that, the second step is for the workers to wash the beads, add salt to wash them to remove the smell, etc. Even those useless clam shells, Suhang also decided to use the waste, asking the workers to break the clam shells into powder and mix it into the feed for the poultry.

, should be used as calcium supplement for poultry.

Besides, this river mussel is a good thing. It is a treasure. River mussels can nourish yin and yang, improve eyesight and prevent eye diseases. They have many benefits for the human body. Suzhou and Hangzhou taught the gang leaders and asked them to make river mussels.

The soup replenished the bodies of the soldiers.

When the captain drove several steamships over, he saw Suhang doing business again. This shocked the captain. In these troubled times, everyone was busy fighting for power, but he, Suhang, was still busy making money.

Haha, Suhang is such a breath of fresh air!

"Captain, you're here. Let's go to my office to talk." Su Hang warmly entertained the captain.

Office? The captain really wanted to cover his mouth and laugh, but he forced himself to calm down and followed Su Hang in.

The captain brought a contract to Suhang. It was a contract for a gunpowder factory in Western Europe. Suhang needed to read and sign it. It detailed the details of various types of munitions.

After Su Hang read it, he decided to order 10,000 muskets first. The development of muskets in Europe is much better than that of Qing Dynasty, and it is also much stronger than that of Japan. It has a longer range and more power. Two hundred artillery can be imagined.

As you know, the gunpowder production in their gunpowder factory is more large-scale and standardized, and the tactics are more flexible. When the time comes, it will be directly used on steam ships, tsk tsk...the power can be imagined! Haha!

Su Hang thought of this, signed his name beautifully and handed it to the captain.

"By the way, Bol, have you seen my pearl processing factory? Do you want to take a few strings of pearls back?" A sly smile gradually appeared on the corner of Su Hang's mouth.
