    With the arrival of Liu Jin and Zhu Houzhao, the whole Tianjin seemed to be injected with a powerful vitality.

    This time, Liu Jin brought almost all the money earned by the glass factory during this period, and prepared to dump all the money here in Tianjin.

    The first thing Liu Jin did when he came to Tianjin was to buy land.

    Regardless of the price of the land near the Haihe River and the Bohai Sea, as long as they are willing to sell it, Liu Jin will send people to quickly start raiding it.

    The land near the sea is the lowest-grade land, and much of it is saline-alkali land, which is not suitable for growing food at all. In this era, land that is not suitable for growing food is inferior land.

    I learned that some people were buying land along the coast in a big way, and some people were taking advantage of the fact that the price was too high and they started selling land crazily. In this regard, Liu Jin would not refuse anyone who came. As long as he was willing to sell, Liu Jin would buy it.

    As for some people deliberately raising the price of land, Liu Jin didn't pay attention to it. Even if the land is raised now, the price will not be much higher. If he does not seize the opportunity to acquire land on a large scale, the construction of all aspects of Tianjin in the future will be  After the rise, the land prices here will skyrocket, and it will really be uneconomical to buy at that time.

    A lot of money was thrown at it, and the price of land increased so much that people who didn't want to sell their land began to sell their land.

    Because all the gentry, landowners, and squires in Tianjin are discussing which fool is buying land wantonly. No one wants the saline-alkali land that usually sells for one tael of silver per acre, but now it can be sold for 2 taels of silver, which is better.  It can even be sold for 3 taels of silver.

    There is no way to grow food in the saline-alkali land by the sea. In fact, it is of no use at all. In the past, you could buy several acres of land for one tael of silver at a bargain price, and sometimes you could even buy several acres of land.

    Having money makes it easy to do things. In a short period of time, Liu Jin almost bought all the land near the sea and rivers in Tianjin. The amount was beyond imagination.

    While Liu Jin was frantically purchasing land in Tianjin, he also began to copy the models of Xishan Coal Industry and Glass Factory.

    First, Tianjin Maritime Academy was established here in Tianjin, and thousands of maritime academy students who followed need to continue their studies here, both theoretical and practical.

    ??Then a Tianjin cement workshop was established to prepare cement for firing. Whether it was building a port, building a wharf, or building a house, or later building a road to the capital, cement was absolutely indispensable.

    Without cement, building a building in this era would definitely be very time-consuming, labor-intensive, and expensive. Although Liu Jin is rich now and manpower is very cheap in this era, time does not allow it.

    At the same time, the Tianjin Marine Ship Workshop was also established together. Although the ten lucky ships found by Emperor Hongzhi were all relatively large, some were relatively old and needed to be overhauled and improved.

    Of course, what is more important is to study the manufacturing of ships and the many equipment and instruments on the ocean. Liu Jin believes that as long as Emperor Hongzhi has tasted the many benefits of maritime trade and overseas colonial plunder, the maritime ban will definitely be lifted by then.

    This shipbuilding is very knowledgeable. As the saying goes, ten years of army and one hundred years of navy, this is actually what it means. Now we must lay the foundation and accumulate slowly.

    Whether it is Tianjin Maritime Institute, Tianjin Cement Workshop, or Tianjin Marine Ship Workshop, they are all done in the name of the Ming Dynasty Prince Zhu Houzhao.

    In terms of internal share distribution, Zhu Houzhao also accounts for the majority. Liu Jin dare not have a 50-50 relationship with him now. After all, he is the prince. In the past, he could still have a 50-50 relationship with him by pretending not to know his identity. Now that he has done it,  As a prince, naturally he should be smarter and just do it on June 4th, lest someone use this matter to criticize him in the future.

    Because everything is copying the model of Xishan Coal Industry, it is natural to recruit workers on a large scale.

    "We're hiring, we're hiring~"

    "Tianjin Maritime University is recruiting workers. They will have three meals a day and one meat meal every three days. They will also be paid for working every day. The more they work, the more they will get."

    On a street near the east side of Tianjin City, a group of strong men wearing the uniforms of Xishan Maritime University beat gongs and drums, and kept shouting while walking on the street.

    With the shouts of these people, they suddenly became the focus of everyone. In the streets and alleys, the victims who had been starving for a long time went crazy after hearing that they were given three meals a day and one meal of meat every three days.  The general crowd immediately gathered around.

    ¡°Can you satisfy yourself with three meals a day?¡±

    "Is this true?"

    &nbsp"Of course it's true, don't look at who we are, we are from Xishan Maritime Academy, and behind us is His Royal Highness the current Crown Prince. I can't deceive you. If you want to work, hurry up and sign up here in the east of the city. Early  Go have breakfast and work hard after dinner."

    When the people around him heard this, they immediately let go of their feet and ran towards the east side of the city. At this time, as long as they can eat and survive, everything is easy.

    On the west side of the city, people also started beating gongs and drums and shouting.

    "We're recruiting, we're recruiting, the Tianjin Cement Workshop is recruiting, both permanent and temporary workers are welcome. They'll have three meals a day, and one meat meal every three days. Long-term workers will be treated favorably, and temporary workers will also be paid. If you want to work,  Hurry up and sign up outside the city west, go early and eat early, and work hard after eating."

    On the south side of the city, there were people wearing Xishan Coal Industry uniforms who were shouting equally hard.

    "Tianjin Ocean Workshop is recruiting workers, Tianjin Ocean Workshop is recruiting workers."

    "Three meals a day, one meal of meat for three days. Those who can build ships and carpenters will be given favorable treatment, and their monthly wages will not be less than three taels of silver. Those who can read and count will also be given favorable treatment, and their monthly wages will be not less than  Three taels of silver, if you want to go to work quickly, go and sign up outside the south of the city."

    As groups of people began to beat gongs and drums in Tianjin City, the entire Tianjin City began to become extremely crowded. From the streets and alleys, people in tattered clothes, unkempt faces, and sallow faces began to move towards  One by one, the city gates are coming here.

    Outside the city gate, there were already people waiting. It was also the way things were done here at Xishan Coal. Everyone had to line up and first register to receive their identity badges.

    Then when the number of people reached a certain number, they began to form small teams. Each team was led by an old man from Xishan Coal Industry. Under the leadership of these old people, they went to each construction site to familiarize themselves with their own work.  , places to eat and sleep, and familiar with the various rules and regulations copied from Xishan.  (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
