- Hearing this, Zhao Hao followed Jiang Xueying¡¯s direction in confusion and found that without knowing it, the ocean boat had passed Shanghai County and merged into the Huangpu River.
To the east of the Huangpu River, isn¡¯t that Pudong?
Why didn¡¯t you see the Oriental Pearl Tower?
Oh, by the way, I¡¯m in Daming. Because he was so focused on wandering in the long river of history just now, Mr. Zhao almost forgot what night it was.
Where is there any TV station in Pudong at this time? Although Lujiazui already exists, it is just a muddy pond.
Not just Lujiazui? The entire Pudong is a muddy pond with almost no human habitation.
¡°Your company actually bought such a shabby place?¡± Qiaoqiao was shocked when she heard this.
"What a fuss." Secretary Ma chuckled while holding the tea cup: "If not, how can we show off our master's skills?"
"Hahaha." Zhao Hao laughed when he heard this, Secretary Ma was still good at talking.
"No wonder Sister Qiaoqiao thinks so." Jiang Xueying also nodded and smiled:
"When my brother asked me to go all out to acquire the land east of the Huangpu River, I was actually worried about it. The original seawalls had all been destroyed by the tide, turning the east side into a saline-alkali land. The Huangpu River was also silted up and overflowing, turning the west side into a Mud pond. The whole of Pudong is a wasteland. Even Shanghai County doesn¡¯t want it. Officials never go beyond the Huangpu River.¡±
"But with the cement invented by my brother, governing Pudong is no longer a luxury." Jiang Xueying looked at Zhao Hao with admiration and said:
"Now we have acquired more than 80% of the land in Pudong. If the news of Kunshan's dike construction in January had not spread to Shanghai, we would have acquired the entire Pudong by now."
Jiangnan Company is restrained and low-key in Kunshan, but it does not mean that they will be like this elsewhere.
Shanghai County belongs to Songjiang Prefecture, so Jiangnan Company naturally has no scruples and spends money to buy, buy, buy, buy, buy, buy, buy, buy, buy, buy, buy, buy, buy, buy, buy, buy, buy, buy, buy, buy, buy, buy and buy, and it is likely to buy the entire Pudong!
"It's my fault for feelings." After hearing Jiang Xueying's words, Zhao Hao couldn't help but laugh and said, "The cement was exposed too early."
"Brother is doing it for the people of Kunshan. This is a great act of kindness and righteousness." Jiang Xueying looked at Zhao Hao with a fan filter, and she could do nothing wrong.
"The landowners in Shanghai have all heard about the magic of cement, and they have found out the land deeds from the bottom of the box one or two hundred years ago to raise the price. People from the Xu family also went to Pudong to draw land and establish boundaries, making it clear You want a share of the pie with us.¡±
Jiang Xueying sneered as she spoke, then said with a flash of murderous intent: "But don't worry, brother, I will take care of them all!"
Ma Xianglan couldn't help but shudder. She didn't expect Miss Jiang to have such a decisive side.
"If she finds out, I am afraid that I will not be able to live a good life as a slave."
?????????????????????????????????????????????????? off off together out of
??~~
Jiang Xueying is the president of Jiangnan Company, and of course she has the right to act freely under Zhao Hao's decision-making direction.
However, Mr. Zhao still wanted to remind her.
"You must be careful not to hit the muzzle of the gun."
"Brother, are you talking about Lin Zhongcheng?" Jiang Xueying's expression changed.
"That's right." Zhao Hao sighed and said, "Songjiang may be in chaos for a while, so it's best for us to stay out of it as much as possible."
"I understand." Jiang Xueying nodded slightly, and she naturally followed Zhao Hao's advice.
While talking, Xiwa's shout suddenly came from the mast: "Uncle! You have seen our ship!"
"Oh?" Zhao Hao stood up, put up a pergola with his hands and looked around. He saw two large five-masted sand ships moored by Wusongkou ahead.
Each ship is hoisted with three triangular flags.
On the main mast hang the red sun flag with a yellow background and the yellow moon flag with a blue background issued by Caojiang Yushi Yamen.
On the auxiliary mast hung the flag of Wu Ji, who was registered at Caojiang Yushi Yamen.
Ming ships sailing on the Yangtze River and offshore waters must fly these two flags, otherwise they will be punished as being connected to the Japanese.
Although Uncle Wu was the censor of Jiangdu, Zhao Hao did not ask him to change the record and still continued to use the banner of Wu Ji.
First of all, he is lazy and doesn¡¯t want to be in debt all the time. Secondly, it is also to take care of the feelings of the old employees of Wuji. The third reason is because Wu Ji¡¯s flag is at sea, which is very useful.
No matter whether you are a merchant or a pirate, when you see Wu Jiqi who has Wang Zhi's blood, you must always think of love and be merciful.
Mr. Zhao, who never wastes any resources, how could he give up this kind of amulet just for the sake of a mere reputation?
??~~
Those two big sand ships were the thugs Zhao Hao promised to send to Jin Xuezeng. They are all security personnel selected from the security brigade of Jiangnan Company.?Personnel.
To avoid being too ostentatious, they did not stop in Kunshan after setting off from Xishan Island by boat, but waited directly at Wusongkou to meet Mr. Zhao.
The fleet recognizes flags when traveling during the day and recognizes lanterns when traveling at night. The sailors on Zhao Hao's side quickly raised a signal flag and ordered the two ships to follow them and move forward in a formation.
At this time, the sun sets, thousands of golden lights dance on the river, and the shadows of thousands of sails are breathtakingly beautiful.
The four of them remained silent and quietly watched the sunset on the river until the purple light on the horizon dimmed.
In this season, the river surface cools down very quickly. The girls stood up one after another, tightened their shawls, and prepared to go into the cabin to hide from the wind.
Zhao Hao boarded the rudder cabin at the rear of the ship building.
This is the place with the best view inside the ship. He wanted to see how many ships were sailing in the Yangtze River Estuary at night.
But what disappointed him was that the river, which was still busy during the day, suddenly became deserted.
¡°Obviously, all the cargo ships going north and south have docked for the night.
Although this cannot explain anything, it can also reflect from the side that the degradation of Ming Dynasty's navigation technology caused the ship bosses to lose the ability to sail at night.
Without the ability to fly at night, you are directly locked out of the door to ocean navigation
The reason why Zhao Hao's ship dared to continue sailing was because Uncle Mi was at the helm.
Although Uncle Mi never mentioned the past, Jiang Xueying told him that he was the captain brought out by her grandfather and had been to Japan and Luzon.
I saw the old man¡¯s hand resting on the thick tiller, looking seriously at the gradually darkening river surface.
Behind him are two strong helmsmen. When the captain wants to turn the tiller, they are responsible for helping to work together.
This kind of tiller is placed horizontally on the rudder head, perpendicular to the long rudder stock. There are no tricks, and it is naturally very laborious to operate.
In bad weather, it sometimes takes four sailors to withstand the pressure on the rudder.
Uncle Mi is introducing to his new owner how he knows the course at night. He also said that the telescope can only be truly useful in the hands of their navigators.
As he was speaking with saliva flying, he suddenly raised his hand to signal everyone to be quiet.
Zhao Hao and the two helmsmen were speechless for a while. You, the old man, were the only one talking, okay?
But on the ship, the captain has absolute authority, and even Zhao Hao can only accept it.
Uncle Mi raised the telescope around his neck and looked ahead for a long time before whispering:
"There are ships at war!"
ps.Third update. Please give me a monthly pass. I signed up for Little Monk Kindergarten today, and I also need to adjust my biological clock, because I have to send Little Monk to school the day after tomorrow, so I can only do it three times.
