    Weijiatun is less than 40 kilometers away from Tianjin. Like Liu Jin¡¯s hometown of Xiahetun, it is also a village close to the mountains and the sea.

    The village is not small, with more than thirty households. However, because it is close to the sea, there is very little land, and much of it is saline-alkali land. There is no way to grow food. Therefore, Weijiatun is also a famous bachelor's village in the surrounding area.  The kind where a girl marries in.

    At this time, there were more than a dozen young people from Weijiatun gathered in the grain drying field in Weijiatun Village. Each of these ten young people had short hair, clean shaven beards, and the same style of clothes they were wearing.  There are also the words 'Tianjin Port'.

    Everyone gathered together and seemed to be discussing something.

    "Our Weijiatun is a famous bachelor's village in the surrounding ten miles and eight villages. There were dozens of bachelors in the previous generation, but we can no longer do this in our generation."

    Wei Xiaoming looked at the villagers around him and said very solemnly.

    During this famine, everyone in Weijiatun also fled to Tianjin early. They happened to catch up with the large-scale construction recruitment at Tianjin Port, so they were lucky enough to join the recruitment.

    Although Weijiatun is poor, the people are relatively simple and willing to work hard, so the dozen or so young people from Weijiatun were left to work at Tianjin Port.

    Now that the famine has passed, Tianjin Port has begun to give its employees holidays one after another. Because they are close, these people also make an appointment to return to Weijiatun.

    Weijiatun is back, but Weijiatun is very poor. Most of the houses here are mud houses, which are very low. Many of them are still dilapidated. The roads in the village are also very muddy, which I have become accustomed to.  People living here in Tianjin are very uncomfortable.

    Therefore, Wei Xiaoming also gathered the young men who were going to Tianjin and prepared to discuss with the big guys to find ways to change the appearance of Weijiatun.

    ¡°Brother Xiaoming, are you still afraid that you won¡¯t get a wife?¡±

    Wei Xiang looked at Wei Xiaoming and said with a smile.

    There are more than ten people working in Tianjin Port, and only Wei Xiaoming has become the steward. Needless to say, the salary of the steward of Tianjin Port is five taels of silver a month, which is considered a high salary in this era.  Line up.

    "Of course I don't have to worry about not getting a wife, but what about the other people in the village?"

    ¡°There are hundreds of young men like us in the village, but so far, not even half of them have married.¡±

    "Those of us have gone out to see the world, and we all took night classes. Now we have turned over. Naturally, we don't have to worry about getting married and starting a career. But we can't forget the folks in Weijiatun and our own  brothers and sisters."

    "Do you think so?"

    Wei Xiaoming looked at Prime Minister Wei and said to everyone.

    "Brother Xiaoming is right~"

    "Brother Xiaoming can be a steward. This awareness is different."

    "Brother Xiaoming, just tell me what to do. We will all listen to you."

    When the others heard this, they immediately nodded.

    ¡°We in Weijiatun are close to the sea, and we could not go fishing in the sea before. Therefore, being close to the sea not only has no advantage, but has become a fatal point for our village.¡±

    "But it's different now. Now the court allows us to go fishing in the sea, so I'm wondering if we can take advantage of this advantage of our village. We can rely on the mountains to eat and the water to eat. We rely on the sea to make a fortune.  .¡±

    Wei Xiaoming looked at everyone, thought for a while and said.

    "You mean we go fishing in the sea?"

    "But fishing in the sea requires a fishing boat. I also know the fishing boats here in Tianjin Shipyard. This one costs 20,000 taels of silver, and we can't afford it."

    "Yes, this boat is too expensive. The money is really profitable. You can catch more than 100,000 kilograms of marine fish in a day at sea. Fishing at sea is not difficult. We see a lot here at the port every day."

    "Even if we sell ourselves, we can't raise 20,000 taels of silver."

    Hearing Wei Xiaoming¡¯s words, everyone immediately expressed their opinions on what you said and what I said.

    Everyone knows that fishing at sea is a good idea. Working in Tianjin Port, they have seen too many sea fish. Next to it is the Tianjin Shipyard. They will also go to the shipyard to see it when they have nothing to do.  See, so I am very familiar with this area.

    &nb?, this cement is also very cheap. You can buy a barrel for thirty cents. After all, you can start it with a hundred taels of silver.  "

    "As for the stopped ship, it is said that there is a ship at the Tianjin port that sells marine fish specifically to Yongping Prefecture. They have to travel dozens of miles to take it from Tianjin to Yongping Prefecture.  It's much closer to us, and I'm pretty confident that I can pull the ship to our place first and dock it."

    "According to the charging standards at Tianjin Port, this ship will charge five taels of silver for one docking. If you include the loading and unloading costs, etc., a ship can bring several taels of silver to the port."

    "It will be cheaper for us then. When this boat is berthed, it will bring in at least three taels of silver. Over the years, this will be a very considerable income. Besides, the fishing boats will become more and more popular in the future.  More and more" (remember this website address: www.hlnovel.com
