    Liu Mingqi is not surprised by this.

    This is a dredging boat and dredger that can be used in modern times. Wasn¡¯t it a tool like a god in ancient times?

    With the size of Dakang and the development of river transportation in various places, these two types of ships have great potential.

    And everything has a wear-and-tear life. If you use it frequently, you may have to scrap it in two or three years and buy a new one.

    The water transportation yamen itself consumes a lot of money, plus the river yamen, I dare not say that I will make a fortune, but the average production of hundreds of ships a year is just like playing.

    This business alone can sustain the entire water transport shipyard.

    ¡°Then after they become proficient in their craftsmanship, they can also take on some work of repairing ships for civilians.

    Most of the shipyard masters recruited have this kind of experience. It is of course good to do some work on weekdays to provide subsidies.

    But the most important thing for a shipyard is, of course, the manufacture of five-masted sailing ships.

    ???????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????: The function of this five-masted sailboat is unknown without experimentation. The first step of sales should be the price.

    Liu Mingqi asked smoothly: "Mr. Miao, I haven't asked how much silver it will cost to bring down such a four-masted sailboat?"

    Miao Yan said: "It hasn't been made yet, so it's hard to say. But the cost should be around 70,000 to 80,000 taels per unit. If it is the selling price, it will be at least 150,000 taels per unit This is the normal price in the shipbuilding industry."

    Liu Mingqi¡¯s eyelids twitched and he laughed dryly: ¡°The price is really not cheap.¡±

    Fortunately, he thought, this was a four-masted sailing ship. In fact, it was an enhanced version of a three-masted sailing ship.

    If it were a real four-masted sailboat, the price would probably have doubled.

    For a five-masted sailing ship, it is not a matter of doubling, it must be at least five to ten times!

    Miao Yan was quite surprised by Liu Mingqi's reaction. He originally thought Liu Mingqi was going to bargain.

    ¡°I didn¡¯t expect Liu Mingqi to be so straightforward.

    Is it because he has too much money?  Should I report more?

    The selfless Governor Miao suddenly had such an idea in his mind.

    Liu Mingqi didn¡¯t know he thought so.

    He was just thinking that when his uncle took the fleet to Japan, the maritime merchants would flock to order ships.

    As for the question of Japan possibly invading Dakang, that doesn¡¯t exist.

    I have made all the money from Japan. After I have strengthened myself, wouldn¡¯t it be faster to use the money I earned from them as military expenses to directly destroy Japan?

    Miao Yan also mentioned this matter: "Your Highness, Jiangnan may be a little uneasy this year. You'd better not wander around the coastal areas, such as Nanjing, Yangzhou, Suzhou, and Hangzhou. Then go back quickly! Gyeonggi area  It¡¯s the safest place!¡±

    "This is wrong!"

    Liu Mingqi immediately expressed his disagreement: "How can the eggs be completed when the nest is overturned? If a crisis occurs, which place is truly safe? The so-called one hundred thousand young people and one hundred thousand troops, every inch of mountains and rivers, every inch of blood. Which inch of land is not mine?  In my hometown, which fellow countryman is not my compatriot? Where can I retreat? So I don¡¯t want to retreat at all, I also want to help fight against the Japanese!"

    Miao Yan was dumbfounded.

    Immediately, he bowed and saluted Liu Mingqi, and said solemnly: "Your Highness cares about the world and has compassion for others. This is really a blessing for my great prosperity! Miao Yan paid homage to His Highness and said that he will not retreat even an inch and defend Sangzi to the death!"

    But the next moment, he said again: "But this time the situation is unusual. Your Highness, you must not put yourself in danger. Your Highness, you don't know yet, right? The beggar Heerda Subu has teamed up with the other five tribes to invade.  At the Datong border gate, our border troops have suffered thousands of casualties!"

    Liu Mingqi: "!?"

    He said blankly: "Is it Jin Chenbai's Heerda Speed ??Division?"

    "right!"

    Miao Yan said: "It's the Heerda Subu who was at the New Year's banquet this year. Didn't you say it, Your Highness? There must be conspiracies among the six tribes' constant secret meetings. Now it seems that your Highness's ability to detect is really  It¡¯s beyond the reach of ordinary people!¡±

    Damn it!

    Liu Mingqi wished she could give herself a slap.

    It¡¯s really a good spirit that doesn¡¯t work but a bad spirit.

    I wanted to marry the young lady, but the young lady passed away.

    I casually guessed that these guys were going to cause trouble, but they actually did it!

    ¡°When I thought that Jin Chenbai had already begun to attack the northern defense line, the remaining five major forces became clear.

    And then think of things from another worldOnly those who are truly wise and courageous, and only those who care about the people, can speak out.

    A Confucian or Legalist master can have such a sentiment, but he never expected that the eighteen-year-old Liu Mingqi could also have such a determination.

    Miao Yan has been an official for twenty years, and thousands of people have seen it. They can tell at a glance whether what Liu Mingqi said is true.

    In fact it is!

    Miao Yan believed that if Liu Mingqi was given a chance, he would really dare to lead his men to kill him.

    Well done!

    This is what a true saint should do when facing danger.

    "He who sacrifices his life for righteousness" is definitely not empty talk!

    However, Miao Yan did not dare to take risks.

    He knows that Emperor Jinghe attaches great importance to Liu Mingqi - even the two gatekeepers Xiong Dabao and Zhang Qin have been sent out personally, why can't they explain it?

    ¡°Besides, Liu Mingqi¡¯s fantastic ideas are far more useful than his personal courage.

    The former is an enemy of ten thousand people, while the latter is an enemy of ten people at most.

    Miao Yan was reluctant to let such a genius lose his life on the battlefield.

    As a result, before he could figure out how to persuade Liu Mingqi, Liu Mingqi spoke up.

    "OldMaster Miao, don't you think it's a bit wasteful to just work on building ships with the 20,000 soldiers you have?"

    Miao Yan: "!?"

    What do you mean?

    Isn¡¯t this what you proposed to me?

    After laying off them, give them a place to work. This is the best of both worlds!

    Is it wrong again?  !  (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
