    After listening to Qiao Mu¡¯s description, the old village chief was shocked at first, and then realized the benefits that those facts would bring to them after they were realized.

    It is normal for people to pursue fame and wealth, and to plan for their children and grandchildren. If they are really involved in doing something for the country and the people here, then they can barely convince themselves to stay here without any regrets.  Stay here, but in fact, they have nothing to do here. They are just being raised by the Hou Mansion. They take advantage of the slack time to practice soldiers, exercise their bodies and skills.

    Wen Qilian has never asked them to do anything since he took over the power. Many businesses such as assassinations and information collection are already unfamiliar. Let alone their grandchildren, sometimes their sons, and even them  They themselves had some doubts about whether their original choice was right or wrong.

    It¡¯s better now. The situations mentioned by the old lady are not very attractive at all. As long as one or two things can be achieved, then they, and even their descendants, should be satisfied.

    However, although the old village chief was excited, he did not forget his old owner. He quickly turned his head and shouted, calling a young man over and asking him to push the young Marquis into the house to rest, and then asked:

    "Old madam, I don't know why I have to hide it from the young prince. Can you tell me now?"

    "It's not that I deliberately hid it from him, it's just that he is really lax. He almost got into trouble when he went out drunk some time ago. What I want to say is quite important, and I have to hide it from others, so naturally I can't let him  I know that my family has spent too much money in the past ten years, so I want to do a maritime trade business so that I can leave some assets for my descendants. If I can occupy some territory overseas, no matter how big it is, even if there are one or two small islands, it can be considered a country.  The way out, I have never found the right person to take charge of this matter. After thinking about it, you are the only one who has this ability and can be trusted."

    At this time, Qiao Mu had no other better choice besides trusting them. After all, she was just an ordinary woman, and she really didn't have any useful manpower. Even if she wanted to train them temporarily, it would be difficult to do anything.  It won't be useful until years later, so naturally you can only try to trust their loyalty.

    However, it is obviously impossible for Qiao Mu to put all her eggs in one basket. They are entrusted here to help manage the sea trade. She must also start to train manpower. Besides, it is estimated that the sea trade just draws the sea chart.  It took three to five years of hard work, so we can catch up.

    "Sea trade? The old lady wants to take the sea route.

    However, none of us are sailors, and we don¡¯t know anything about sea trade. Many of us are even seasick. I¡¯m afraid we can¡¯t help you in this regard. At most, we can only help you add a few more sailors.  Do something strenuous.  "

    The old village chief was stunned. Most of the villagers in his village are landlubbers. Many of them have never seen the sea in their lives, or even large rivers and lakes. It is obviously not a good idea to let them participate in sea trade.  idea.

    "Don't worry, professional matters must be left to professional people. Sailors and the like will hire fishermen directly. Depending on the location, they will also hire corresponding personnel. I just lack people with enough trust to manage them.  Understand?"

    Qiao Mu is not stupid, how could he let people from inland become sailors or something? Many people related to sea trade can be found in villages near the seaside. Even if they are not nearby, they must be in several large cities nearby.  can be found.

    What she lacks is managers, managers who are loyal enough. After all, she can't directly handle the sailors she hired. She needs a middleman to help her manage the sea trade staff and be directly responsible for her.

    "Don't worry, we are definitely worthy of your trust, but how should we screen?"

    The old village chief obviously didn¡¯t think the sea trade thing was very reliable. He was more concerned about the things Qiao Mu had mentioned before, so he asked hurriedly.

    "To be specific, I will send someone to bring special test questions for you to evaluate. If you have martial arts qualifications, of course, you will be given priority. Others will depend on the situation and are all voluntary. However, if you are willing to participate in sea trade,  If you are a manager, I can give you an annual salary of one hundred taels per year. Once you become more proficient, this annual salary can still be increased, and you can even give a small portion of the sea trade profits."

    Qiao Mu knows very well that traveling overseas is not safer than being a soldier, and may even be more dangerous than being a soldier. Therefore, naturally, he can only offer inducements, hoping to attract some people with a high annual salary.

    At this time, the old village chief became a little interested in this matter. Although their village received a subsidy of 10,000 taels from the Hou Mansion every year, their village population was nowIt's already over five hundred, so each person can only get twenty taels on average, and part of this money has to be used to repair and make various armaments. In addition, martial arts training is already quite expensive, so in reality,  Speaking of which, the people in their village are still quite poor, and most of their money is spent on buying meat and medicinal materials. After all, if there is not enough meat and medicinal materials to practice martial arts, it is not martial arts training, but a waste of life.

    The annual salary of one hundred taels is really a lot.

    "I haven't finished the test questions yet. I just came over today to take a look. Later, you can tell the villagers about the specific situation. I will send someone to bring the test questions in two days. After the test, I may send a few more gentlemen.  Come here to teach cultural knowledge. You can't neglect it when the time comes. Although the martial arts competition is mainly about martial arts, you also need to know some knowledge about the art of war. You have to study it seriously.

    It¡¯s getting late, I have to go back first.  "

    Qiao Mu told the details, then looked up at the sun, indicating that it was getting late and she was leaving. After saying that, she ignored the old village chief's warm invitation to stay and insisted on pushing Wen Qilian's wheelchair back alone.

    As long as the matter is explained, there is no need to stay here for much longer. She still has to go back and come up with some psychological test questions related to loyalty and fear of the ocean to see if she can select some good ones from this group of people.  manpower.

    In the absence of long-term monitoring and observation, although the test results cannot be guaranteed to be 100% accurate, there is still an accuracy rate of 80 to 90%.

    After returning home, Qiao Mu felt a little embarrassed to take away her son's hand because she was happy. In addition, she knew that her son had a bit of a money-obsessed temperament, so that night, someone sent him a set of cornucopias overnight, which was inside the Penguin Farm.  The cornucopia they planted was made of fifty pounds of pure gold alone, not to mention there were a bunch of precious stones, jade and ingots in the pot.  (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
