Outside the Huaikou of Qushan City, a corner of the Harbor Wharf is very lively. Many fishermen gathered in the temporary grass market and sold the load of seafood they carried to the military officers of the official army to exchange for the excellent cloth.

The seafood purchased by the quartermasters mainly include low-priced oysters and other seafood. Because they have to purchase the meat needed by the garrison every day, the local chicken, duck and sheep in Haizhou are far from enough, so seafood should be used instead of meat.

Oysters are shellfish, also known as oysters. There are many oysters in coastal areas. The Haizhou Bay where Huaikou is located is no exception. There are a large number of oysters in the long coastline. No one buys them on weekdays. At this time, it is rare for a large number of customers to purchase them in large quantities. Of course, the fishermen responded enthusiastically to dig oysters.

The fishermen, the whole family, went together. With just one morning, they could fill up two baskets of oysters, and they could sell them to Huaikou Cao Market and exchange them for a few pieces of cloth. Why not do such an affordable transaction?

The quartermaster bought oysters, and turned to the side and the chef opened the shell to pick up the meat, transported it back to the military camp and cooked it with rice and millet. It tasted delicious and was widely popular among soldiers. It consumed a lot every day, so Huaikou Cao City has been very lively during this period.

The government army purchased a large number of cheap seafood, while those expensive seafood were collected less. After all, compared with ordinary soldiers, there were not many generals qualified to enjoy expensive seafood, but the fishermen who brought precious seafood to the Cao Market would not return disappointed because there were still big customers.

If the grass market opened because the official army purchased military supplies, it is generally called the military market. However, in this port area, in addition to the military supplies, there are also private merchants and fishermen who are purchasing large-scale businesses.

In another corner of the Caoshi, there are merchants with accents in Shannan Jingxiang and other places who are purchasing large quantities of seafood. Unlike the official army, they mainly purchase precious seafood, including phingfish.

The abalone, which later generations call it, is a precious seafood. When a balone arrives in the Shannan area, the price will double, and the profit will be considerable after deducting the cost. The dry abalone is resistant to storage and is convenient for long-distance transportation. It is a good cargo for merchants.

For hundreds of years, phishes are most famous for their origins in Qingqi. Their origin also includes the boundary of Donghai County, which is now the Haizhou area.

During the Han Dynasty, the phish produced in Qingqi was a famous seafood. In the early days of Cao Wei, it was said that when Emperor Wen Cao Pi sacrificed Emperor Wu of Wei, he had to worship phish in front of the spirit. These abalones were treasures that Zang Ba, the governor of Xuzhou, paid regular tributes every year.

After the Yongjia Rebellion and the clothes and the clothes were crossing south, the phish were still a treasure that the powerful and noble families often ate, and the phishes produced in Qingqi were qualified to cook.

After the border between the north and the south, the Southern Dynasties retreated to the south of the Huai River, the powerful and powerful people in Jiankang still had a great demand for phish. The phish produced in Qingqi (including Haizhou) can be sold for several cents in Jiankang.

Since Haizhou has abundant seafood, when the King of Xiyang led his troops to the shore of the East China Sea, the merchants in Shannan in Huangzhou and other places that followed him naturally started to trade seafood locally, such as fresh and dried phignons.

When loading the ship, the Huangzhou products such as Huangzhou Bu transported from the Huai River to Haizhou are piled up in Huaikou Cao City. No matter how many abalone fishermen bring, merchants can buy them all.

Merchants in the Shannan area not only purchase phignons, but also purchase precious seafood, Jiangxi, and various abalone (dried salted fish). These seafood are transported back to Shannan for sale, which is a sure profitable transaction.

The army from Shannan overcomes obstacles in the front, and merchants from Shannan follow behind to explore the trade routes. Last year, many people missed the wealth routes in Jiangzhou and Lingbiao, and this year they will never miss the other wealth routes brought to them by the King of Xiyang.

The ten years of King Qi and nephew in Shannan gave many poor families the opportunity to rise. However, the children who could enter the officialdom were always a minority. Others who were born in other countries either rely on their enlistment to the army to earn military merits or rely on business to make money to find their own family business.

If you want to do business, the first choice is Huangzhou, Huangzhou general manager, and Xiyang Wang Yuwen Wen. He has a pair of famous golden hands. As long as you keep up with this person's pace, you will not worry about not being able to make a fortune.

Of course, it is impossible for ordinary people to get close to King Xiyang, but as long as they cooperate with Huangzhou business, there will be countless opportunities.

In the past ten years, many people did not react. It is not too late. As long as they do business along the business paths developed by Huangzhou Business Group, they will have countless opportunities to make a fortune.

The recovery of Haizhou by the official army means that selling seafood has become a reality. Trading goods from Shannan to the shore of the East China Sea is much easier than selling goods in Lingbiao, a smoky place. If you dare not even take this risk, you deserve to be unable to make a fortune in your life.

Therefore, Huaikou Cao City was very lively during this period. At this time, there were crowds of people everywhere. In addition to military officers, merchants, fishermen, and others were also busy. It was the Yinshi Division who led troops to inspect, and was supervising the on-site supervision of military officers' procurement.

As the assistant to the marshal Yuwen Wen, he followed the other party to Haizhou. Yuwen Wen went to Donghai County opposite the sea to patrol. He could only stay on the west coast because of seasickness.

Master Yin Shi was very shocked that he actually became seasick because he had not been on a boat before, but this time he got on the boat and went out not far from the sea, and he vomited all the yellow galls and waters. He had to get off the boat in shame and stay on land.

The bumps of sea ships are far greater than those of the river ships. Not only Yinshi Division, but many official soldiers are sick in sea boats. Those soldiers who do not know how to water are even more exaggerated and cannot stand up on the ship. Therefore, the responsibility of Yinshi Division becomes to stay behind, and to supervise the military city and the port area defense.

Now it is the late summer, and the Southeast Road march successfully completed the task of regaining Huaibei before the autumn harvest. However, the Qingzhou General Administration in the northeast is still under the control of the Yuchi family. The Qingzhou navy may cross the sea to attack the Qushan, Haizhou Prefecture, or attack Guangrao, the Donghai County County on the island.

One of the purposes of Yuwen Wen's trip to Guangrao was to see how the garrison's combat readiness was. One of the tasks of the Yinshi Division who stayed on the west coast was to see if the fortifications in Huaikou Shou had cut corners.

If the enemy attacks from the sea, it is hard to defend against. The best way is to have a powerful naval army that patrols from time to time to provide early warning for camps on the shore. However, the navy of Haizhou is very weak, and it is already very difficult to protect Donghai County, let alone patrol the sea.

Therefore, Yinshi Master initially strongly opposed Yuwen Wen going to sea to inspect Donghai County, but Yuwen Wen said he would set an example, saying that if he didn't dare to go to the island to Guangrao for a walk, how could the newly-entered soldiers settled in Guangrao feel at ease in the city?

The Yinshi Master could not stop Yuwen Wen, so he could only hope that Yuwen Wen would return safely after going out to sea. It was already afternoon. According to local fishermen, it was now high tide, and it was just right for sea boats to berth at the wharf.

The sea water has fluctuations and tides. It is said that there are rules to be found. Yinshi Master didn't know what this rule was and didn't want to study it. He just hoped that Yuwen Wen would come back safely. After all, Yuwen Wen was the commander of the first army and could not cause any trouble.

Several soldiers quickly approached and brought the news that the Marshal's ship was berthing at the dock. After hearing this, Yin Shishi looked up at the direction of the dock and found that a handsome flag was indeed flying in the middle of the masts of the berthing ship.

He breathed a sigh of relief and walked towards the dock. At this moment, several men in civilian clothes came towards him and passed by him. Yin Shishi Master walked forward a few steps, suddenly stopped, pulled out his sword with one hand, and shouted:
Chapter completed!
