Chapter 261 Subsequent development
Who wouldn't be envious of such a business?
But Zhong Jing can delay this kind of thing, as long as he can, and how long he can delay it. Who would think that he monopolizes things for too long when it comes to making money?
By the time of the opening, strive to get all the capital back and make a lot of money.
However, according to the current situation, it is completely possible.
Like lychees alone, they have already earned 150,000 to 160,000 taels of silver, this is after deducting all costs. Zhong Jing's barracks took a quarter of the profit, which was more than 60,000 taels.
After listening to Zhao Liya's words, Zhong Jing nodded with a smile: "Xiao-cough, Miss Zhao is right, we have already started building the ship, and we plan to build a big ship, the kind that can go to Nanyang."
Zhao Liya's eyes lit up: "I also have the same idea! In this way, we will be the ones who will take the lead in the future!"
"Hey, that's right!"
Everyone discussed, each took out half of their net profits, continued to invest, expanded the fleet, recruited more personnel, and expanded and repaired the dock.
Zhao Liya has no objection. Xiao Yuyang, Zhou's family, and Yan's family have done these trivial matters before, and they have more experience than her and Zhong Jing. It would be great if they take care of these matters.
Speaking of Xiao Yuyang, Zhong Jing was extremely satisfied, and he repeatedly praised Xiao Yuyang.
Zhao Liya is also very happy, she also has a good impression of Xiao Yuyang, and he is still so young, his future is boundless, if he cultivates and wins over well, he will definitely be able to afford great use in the future.
After hearing what Zhao Liya said, Zhong Jing naturally disagreed, and decided to treat Xiao Yuyang and the Xiao family better.
I can’t finish talking about the route and shipping for a while. After telling such happy and good news, Zhong Jing wisely didn’t bother.
Although he also has many things to report to Brother Zhou in private, it is obvious that Brother Zhou doesn't want to talk to him right now.
Zhao Liya and Zhou Hansheng naturally didn't live together. Zhao Liya didn't live in the barracks at all, but lived in the home of a young army general who settled here. The young general surnamed Jiang lived in the barracks. Zhao Liya, his mother, his wife and children lived together Borrow a few days.
Zhou Hansheng will return to the barracks.
The distance between the two places is about seven or eight miles, not far.
Seeing that Zhao Liya had settled down and everything was fine for the time being, Zhao Liya carried a basket and took Zhou Hansheng to the litchi garden to pick fruits.
Although there are many lychees in Yancun and Zaihu Village, there are definitely not as many varieties here. After years of planting and expanding lychee trees in the military camp, basically all varieties have been collected. At this time, seven or eight varieties are ripe at the same time. Since it is here, it is naturally not to be missed.
Zhao Liya deliberately took Zhou Hansheng to find the oldest and best-bearing old lychee tree, and watched him pick it from a tall tree, and said with a smile: "Our trip is a rare blessing! There are a lot of lychees at the moment, Look at it like this, it should be less in seven or eight days, but they have a lot of varieties here, and there are four or five kinds of late ripening ones, which can be eaten until the end of August at least. When you leave, you can bring some. At that time There are also many early-ripening longans, mangoes, jackfruits, and bananas, if you don’t mind the trouble, prepare some of them.”
"I like what Aya prepared!" Zhou Hansheng responded with a smile, and chose the best and largest red lychee for her. Seeing the satisfied smile on her face, he thought that she really liked it here! Speaking of this place, the expression, tone, and intoxication cannot deceive people.
He was both happy and helpless.
She likes it here, and it is a good thing to be happy here, but he can't help but think about the future, when they get married, the people who will naturally leave here, even the father-in-law and his family, may not stay here for a long time.
However, Zhou Hansheng was only troubled for a while, and then calmed down again.
She likes it, at worst, just come with her a few more times in the future!
So she was relaxed physically and mentally, and accompanied her patiently and calmly to pick lychees, mangoes, carambola, early-ripening longan and other fruits.
Not to mention, Zhou Hansheng was really eye-opening, Lingnan is such a good place!
Zhao Liya didn't go back to the barracks for dinner. She decided to stay at Sister-in-Law Jiang's house and finish eating. Even though she didn't have to leave, Zhou Hansheng would send her off. It was too much trouble after all.
Zhong Jing finally saw Zhou Hansheng, and he might have to drag him to talk endlessly. Who knows what they are muttering about? At that time, I have to interrupt him and let him send her over.
Why bother.
Zhou Hansheng couldn't move, so she had no choice but to give up, and said with a smile: "It's okay, I happen to have something to talk to Zhong Jing about."
Zhao Liya smiled and nodded.
The mother-in-law and daughter-in-law of the Jiang family, as well as a son and a daughter, are very nice people, and they take care of Zhao Liya very warmly.
Since Zhao Liya wanted to live here, Zhong Jing naturally took it into consideration, and asked the Huotou Army to send a lot of food, including pork, live chicken, eggs, etc.
In the evening, Zhao Liya cooks. She simply made eggs with leeks, pan-fried pork ribs, fried pork slices with lettuce, and a soup with tofu and bamboo shoots. Her cooking skills are average, but the Jiang family's daily food is simpler, which is quite remarkable in comparison, and immediately conquered the two children of the Jiang family.
The next day, everyone went to the seaport pier in Guangzhan and returned in two or three days.
Zhao Liya and the others rarely come here. Zhong Jing naturally needs to explain everything about the route and seaport, and also go to the scene to see it, which will take a lot of time.
Zhao Liya is quite happy in her heart. When she arrives at the seaside, is the freshest, richest and most plump seafood still far away?
Zhou Hansheng seemed to know what she was thinking, and said with a smile: "I'll get up early with you to watch the sunrise, and what about 'catch the sea', okay?"
"Huh!" That must be good!
Zhou Hansheng was happy to see her, and he was also happy.
What the future daughter-in-law wants to do, she must accompany her.
When Zhao Liya and his party arrived, the people in charge of the Zhou family and the Yan family were already waiting, but Xiao Yuyang was not there. He just took the boat out yesterday, and it would take several days to return from Hangzhou City.
The ports and docks are already in good shape, and the construction site is in full swing.
But Zhao Liya felt that they were a little timid.
"The pier area is still a little narrow, and the roads are not wide enough. Even if we can't do it on a large scale right now, we still need to reserve the space and make a good plan. Otherwise, when we need to expand in the future, there will be no open space, and it will be very difficult at that time." trouble."
These words shocked Zhong Jing, the Zhou family, and the Yan family.
Because they feel that they are already very bold, and the area of the port terminal is already very, very large.
Zhao Liya smiled, and said slowly: "Our route does not only go to Jiangnan, but even if it only goes to Jiangnan, you have seen how much demand for goods is, and how many ships are needed to ensure normal supply."
