    "Old madam, since we are going to be in the escort business, should the weapons on the ship be"

    Hu Yinglong rubbed his hands and asked with a smile.

    Qiao Mulang laughed:

    "Of course you will not be short of firearms. However, we have to slow down for the time being. The ships you are currently using cannot be equipped with some heavy firearms. New large ships are being built. By then, the new ships will be equipped with thirty-two giant cannons.  , which is a ship specially used for long-distance voyages. After the new ship is built, the corresponding weapons will be ready.

    By the way, what is the current situation of the islands in Nanyang? How many are occupied?  "

    Qiao Mu's original plan was to make money and occupy land with both hands. It seems that there is no problem in making money now. As long as nothing unexpected happens in the future, it will be no problem to earn one to two million taels of silver every year. In the future, with the radiation of trade,  As the scope increases, there may be more.

    Next, we naturally have to focus on land acquisition. This is not only for cultivable land, but also to leave a way out for the family.

    "Old Madam, we have occupied dozens of islands in Nanyang. Anyway, we have occupied a group of islands near Marina Bay. However, the area of ??the island group there is not very large.  The largest one has a total area of ??less than 1,000 hectares, and some of the smaller ones only have an area of ??180 hectares. If there are strong winds and waves on the sea, they will not be able to withstand it and may be flooded, so we can only compare.  Some fields have been cultivated on the larger islands, but other places are still uncultivated. Only a few fishing bases have been built. It happens to be fishing and drying fish on the spot. Although the profit of dried fish is not high,  It's better than wasting it.

    We currently have too few manpower. Even if we occupy some areas, we cannot manage them. However, there was a major flood near Dinghai this year. It is said that millions of people were affected. The disaster relief funds from the court have not yet been allocated. I would like to ask,  Can we take the opportunity to recruit some people to help.  "

    Hu Yinglong¡¯s meaning is obvious. To gather the victims, you must spend money to buy food, so he came here to ask for the right to use the money and food.

    Qiao Mu had no hesitation in this regard and asked directly: "That's no problem.

    "However, you have to give me an accurate estimate of how much money and food is needed and how many victims can be gathered, so that I can make targeted allocations.  "

    ¡°It¡¯s hard to say exactly.

    Madam, that's what happened. We currently don't know when the disaster relief funds from the court will arrive, nor do we know how much of the disaster relief funds allocated by the court will be embezzled, so it's hard to say the specific situation. In the court disaster relief  Before the funds were allocated, with only three to five taels of silver and a few dozen kilograms of grain, you could find a way to attract someone. If you were lucky, you could even attract a large family. But if the government's disaster relief funds were allocated, the news would spread.  It will be much more difficult after that. You have to at least double it to attract one disaster victim. However, if the embezzlement of the court funds is serious and many people find out that they can¡¯t get a share at all, the cost of attracting the victims will be much lower, and it may even be unnecessary.  If you give them money and food directly, they will be willing to follow.

    At different times and under different circumstances, the specific amount will change, so I can¡¯t really say. In fact, the best time to pull people in is when an accident occurs when the court¡¯s disaster relief funds are allocated. But with the current situation in the court, we  I don¡¯t know, so I can only try my best to attract people before the court¡¯s disaster relief funds are allocated.  "

    When Hu Yinglong said this, he really wasn't just fooling around trying to make money. These are real situations. The initial situation can be called the panic stage. The panic stage can attract people, but these people are not desperate yet, so  The cost of attracting people is slightly higher. The stage when disaster relief funds are allocated is called the hope stage. At this time, everyone still has hope in the court and believes that the court can save them, so they don't care much about other people's solicitation. Everyone still hopes to be able to win over others.  After receiving the disaster relief funds, they return home and settle down again. However, if there is a problem with the disaster relief funds, or they do not receive it at all, then they will enter the final stage of despair. At this time, their requirements will be much lower, and they will only need to give  Just keep them hungry until they die.

    This is how people¡¯s hearts change.

    "You have thought very comprehensively. It seems that I really saw the right person. Let's do this. I will allocate five hundred thousand taels of silver to you first, and then you will use all the grain in stock in your hands to bring in as much as possible.  People, anyway, there is a lot of land overseas, and those small overseas countries have no means of resistance. If they recruit a little more people and get more weapons, they can defeat them quickly. There is no need to worry about not enough land. These five hundred thousand taels  Silver is mainly used by the court for disaster relief.

    I hope to attract 100,000 people.

    ??It doesn¡¯t matter whether you are male or female, old or young, but try to pick younger ones, as well as older and skilled ones.

    It depends on the situation later. If the court's disaster relief goes well, forget it. If the court's disaster relief fails, I will find a way to allocate a batch of food to you. Remember to monitor the situation over there in time. I am here in the capital.  It's relatively far away, so I can only know how much money has been allocated for disaster relief, but I can't find out how much it can actually be done as quickly as yours.  "

    With more than 10 million in capital, more and more people, and more and more land, Qiao Mu¡¯s ambitions are getting bigger and bigger. Capital must be protected by force. Capital without force is like a shining piece of stone.  Anyone can take a bite of the fat. Qiao Mu doesn't want the wealth he finally saved to be divided by others, so it is necessary to make some preparations in advance, accumulate force and build a last resort.

    Besides, this feeling is quite good.

    It feels like a business growth game.

    Of course, doing these things in real life is much more difficult than in the game. In the game, you only need to click OK, click OK, and at most you can spend some money. But in reality, there are so many things to consider, and everything else is easy to handle.  Technology and funding are easy to handle, but the hardest thing to figure out and control is people's hearts. Qiao Mu has suffered many losses from people's hearts in the past world, and has learned how to judge and employ people. But even so, she can't guarantee her  You can see people accurately every time, and you can't guarantee that your subordinates won't betray or anything, so you can only be as considerate as possible.

    ¡°Okay, madam, it should be no problem to recruit 500,000 taels and 100,000 people. However, madam, do you want to build a country overseas by doing this?

    What do you still want to do?  "

    Hu Yinglong was quite excited. Of course he was not angry when he was excited. He was thinking that if the old lady really wanted to establish a country overseas, then with his achievements over the years, he would be able to get a good position no matter what, although it might just be an overseas  I am an official in a small country, but that is not an official.  (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
