- "No! Don't worry, Your Majesty, my subordinates will board the ship in person starting tomorrow!"
He Jin had a look of surprise on his face, Liu Deng's words seemed to open a door for him.
"One more thing. Starting tomorrow, these people you selected will train during the day and learn to read and write for me one by one at night!"
Seeing the surprise on He Jin¡¯s face, Liu Deng smiled and patted his shoulder.
"ah?"
Hearing what Liu Deng said, He Jin suddenly showed a bitter look on his face.
"Your Majesty, we rough guys are all very old now"
He Jin muttered softly.
"What's wrong with your age? Let me tell you first. I will give you one year. Each of you must learn at least three thousand words. Otherwise, don't blame me for ripping off your skin and throwing you back to your hometown. Go farm!¡±
Liu Deng¡¯s eyes widened.
To create a navy from scratch, what it needs is a group of excellent generals and excellent captains.
A good captain must at least learn to read charts.
Although the sextant has not been built yet, Liu Deng knows the general principle of this thing.
"Using a sextant requires calculation. If you are illiterate, then you are still a fucking ball!"
Of course, there is a more important thing. In the process of exploring the world, they need to leave behind the charts they sailed.
Wherever there are reefs, where there are ocean currents, where there are monsoons, where there are islands, where fresh water can be replenished.
There are no satellite maps in the world now, and all that can be relied upon is the hazy image of the globe in Liu Deng's impression.
"If in later generations, just relying on these things, throwing people into the sea to go on an ocean voyage, it would be simply murder.
But in this day and age, this is indeed what Liu Deng must do now.
However, in order to ensure that the sailors who go to sea can come back safely to the greatest extent, what Liu Deng needs to do is to do his best to cultivate the quality of these captains.
"No!"
Hearing that Liu Deng had already said this, He Jin had no choice but to respond, and went down to prepare with a grimace.
After this war, a large number of people were displaced, their families lost their strong labor force, all the food was requisitioned, and they had no choice but to flee without their livelihood.
Although this is indeed a severe test for Liu Deng in a short period of time, in this era, population is actually the most precious resource.
As long as Liu Deng can endure the most difficult period now, when the production of cans can be put on the schedule, the next thing will be much simpler.
To produce cans, the first thing you need to do is prepare a large number of clay pots. The technical content of clay pots is really not high, and the clay pots Liu Deng needs do not actually need any texture at all.
The simplest device type, the simplest process, as long as the sealing is good, nothing else matters.
Liu Deng just posted a notice, and in less than half an hour, seven or eight old potters had come forward voluntarily.
Liu Deng was overjoyed and asked Tian Suning, the newly appointed magistrate of Buqi County, to point out three hundred people, and followed a few old potters to start building kilns and firing pottery.
The packaging problem is solved, and the remaining problem is the raw materials.
Not only is the county itself close to the sea, there were already a lot of fishermen. After Liu Deng negotiated the purchase price, those fishermen immediately went crazy.
¡° Originally, the trash fish they caught could only be sold for two or three pennies a pound at most.
As for those that are already dead, the price is even more ridiculously low, maybe a dozen or dozens of kilograms for just a penny.
After all, this thing is really worthless at the beach.
But now, according to Liu Deng, their purchase price is three cents per catty.
¡°Based on their past harvests, as long as they are lucky, they can weigh over a thousand pounds no matter what they do in the end of the day.
?????????????????????????? There are often some relatively rare fish mixed in. If you calculate it this way, the fisherman¡¯s livelihood seems to have suddenly become very promising.
If you can bring back a thousand kilograms of miscellaneous fish in one day, that will be three thousand pounds of money!
Although it is more dangerous, they have been doing these things for generations and have long been accustomed to this kind of life.
The day after Liu Deng issued the decree, hundreds of boats could be seen on the entire beach.?All went into the sea.
"Your Majesty, if this continues at this rate, I'm afraid that within a few days, the entire city will be filled with salted fish"
Since I came to Buqicheng and took office, although my life has been harder every day, at least I don¡¯t have to worry anymore.
Tian Suning also gradually got used to this kind of life. Today Liu Deng came to the beach for inspection, and he went out specially to follow him.
"If we can fill up this whole city, then we don't have to worry anymore!"
Although this guy accidentally got involved in the rebellion, Liu Deng was still very satisfied with his talent based on his actions in the past few days after arriving in Buqi County.
In just a few days, he managed all the officials above and below him obediently. His ability to control and employ people was enough to impress people.
"But Your Majesty, even the people in this city can't eat so much fish every day"
Tian Suning looked at Liu Deng with some worry. These were hundreds of fishing boats. Each fishing boat caught four to five hundred kilograms a day.
Adding these hundreds of fishing boats together, the number of fish caught every day is an astronomical number.
"These people living by the sea are actually not interested in this kind of thing.
"Moreover, most of the people in the city and outside the city are old, weak, women and children. If a fishbone gets stuck in the throat, someone may die."
"You don't have to worry about it! By the way, how is the matter that I ordered you to do now?"
Liu Deng smiled, but still did not elaborate with him.
The food transport team from Jinyang should arrive in the next few days. When they arrive, the first batch of soldiers' families should also arrive together.
By then this vigorous cannery will be opened. Before they come, we can stock up on some raw materials for them.
"Replying to the king, all the salt has been distributed. As for hiring manpower, there is no need for this. The people in the city are divided into cities and towns, and the population outside the city also has clan villages. We only need to send carriages every day Send the fish to them, and when it's time to take it back, just bring the copper coins to settle the matter!"
Seeing that Liu Deng was still selling the lawsuit, Tian Suning was helpless and could only ignore the topic just now, and then began to report his work progress to Liu Deng.
"There is no problem with this, but when the copper coins are distributed, the Yamen needs to send someone to supervise it. It must ensure that every citizen who works hard can get their reward! What I want is that the people in this city have food. Eat, you don¡¯t want them to do hard work for those clan leaders!¡±
Liu Deng basically agreed with his method, but he also knew that human nature is the least able to withstand the test of money. (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com - Didn't finish reading?
