"Dad, mom, my son is ashamed. The holiday is here. If the holiday is not up to date, there will be severe punishment..." Huang Laigui knelt down to his parents next to the road, with tears on his face.

After living in 1700 households for more than ten days, Huang Laigui's vacation has ended. The Fu-1 Fu Ship has been loaded and is ready to sail to Japan.

This time the goods have not been fully loaded, and there are more than 100 loads of raw silk. This thing is not easy to get, and it should be the source of goods found by Changwen Hou Mansion.

One pick of raw silk costs 120 guan, and one selling price of 600 guan in Japan is worth 1. The profit can be imagined.

Therefore, buying and selling raw silk has never been a problem of selling, but a problem of buying.

As long as there is goods, sufficient supply of raw silk, and a stable supply chain, it is just waiting to make a fortune in this transaction.

The Nan'an Marquis Mansion definitely has no source of raw silk goods, but with the current status and strength of Junhou Xu Zixian, and the help of Changwen Marquis Mansion, it is natural to get some share in the raw silk transactions in Fujian, with a hundred burdens at a time, thousands of burdens a year, and tens of thousands of coins of profits. Not to mention that it is not a great matter for Changwen Marquis Mansion and the big silk merchants, even the Nan'an Marquis Mansion will not pay too much attention to the profits of tens of thousands of coins.

It is nothing more than a new arrival of merchant ships, and popular cargo needs to be at the bottom of the bay, so that they can attract Japanese merchants to continue their trade, and it is also easy to cultivate agents in Japan, Luzon, and Lanfang.

The Fuchuan first packed raw silk, as well as some porcelain and tea, which were all second-hand goods bought on Fujian Road. The profit is small and not cost-effective.

Then go to Penghu to pack some beans, soybean oil, and cotton cloth, and get a ship of cargo, and you can sail to Japan.

"The son of Japan often goes..." Huang Laigui said with a bow: "Please don't worry, my father."

"Don't worry, why are you worried?" Huang's father caressed his wife who was a little unhappy and said to his son: "You two brothers, I feel at ease with you. I have been overseas for more than ten years and have not seen you suffer any losses. It can be seen that he is a smart and awake person. It's just that your brother comes to blessing, I wonder if there will be any risks?"

"That's definitely not." Huang Laigui smiled and said, "Brother is in the navy. Within half a year, the Penghu navy will patrol and train on the sea between the Dongfan and Penghu. Many ships need to be repaired in turn, and they will not be able to sail far away for a while. Most sailors are novices, and the martial soldiers will also board the ship and will definitely fight the enemy..."

Huang's mother said: "There will always be war in half a year?"

"The navy is to prevent pirates." Huang Laigui comforted his mother and said, "If the pirates come, everyone will be in danger, and they are not brothers alone."

"That's what I said." Huang's father said with a sigh: "Now we live well, we wear warm clothes, eat enough, and officials are not bullying others in peace. Who cares about them? We can't just want to take advantage of the situation or work hard. When the drum beats, all the men in the neighborhoods will come out, and those who don't come out are not worthy of living in the hundred households. The people in our Nan'an Marquis Mansion are the same. When fighting a war, pirates will attack, whether on land or on boats, we can't just think about our family... What I'm worried about is that your brothers have not yet got married. If they get married and keep their children and grandchildren, they will be afraid of nothing."

After talking about the marriage, Huang Laigui smiled and said, "Don't worry, Father, this time I'll be able to give you a reward. I'll ask your parents to arrange it."

Huang’s father and mother were all happy when they heard this, but Huang’s mother watched her son leave and couldn’t help but shed a few more tears.

"Uncle and aunt don't have to do this." Li Guozhu, who was standing beside him, held the shovel and said with a smile: "Brother Huang is the deck captain on the ship. He can be the deputy commander and captain in the future. With this status, small matters are not related to him. In the past few years, he may be able to save up a fortune of thousands of yuan. He can be considered a rich man everywhere. If he marryes a wife and has children, what else can he worry about?"

Huang's father said seriously: "No matter how many people are in the family, our Huang family always wants to stay on Dongfan Island and will definitely not go anywhere else."

"So too of my Li family." Li Guozhu said with a smile: "Even if there are pirates, epidemics, and savages, our family will definitely not leave the Dongfan again."

Nan'an Hou Mansion has always been generous in its work. The identity and household registration of the official household are reviewed and determined one by one, and then divided into hundreds of households. Each household has a sign and each person has corresponding management. This will eliminate bandits everywhere and prevent spies from infiltration, which will have a good effect.

At the same time, there is also a promise first. If you are unaccustomed to living in Dongfan or feel uneasy, as long as you pay off your debt, everyone can go to the Hou Mansion Secretary Pavilion to apply for payment of the sign and return to the household registration status. You can take the voucher and return to the household registration of a household in Fujian.

However, judging from the ideas of Li Guozhu and the Huang family, those who do this are either fools or lunatics.

As a commoner under the rule of the Great Wei Dynasty, it seems that it is not entirely true that the government is harsh and cruel.

Compared with the dynasties before the Tang Dynasty, the emperor of the Great Wei was an official family, and was benevolent to the people and the officials were relatively clear-headed. The urban culture was developed in the Great Wei, and the curfew that lasted for thousands of years was also cancelled in the Great Wei.

The people were still full of identity with this huge empire. If not, when Emperor Chongde died in the capital, more than 100,000 scholars and people in the capital also died in the capital.

This is something that has never happened in all dynasties, which shows that the Great Wei Dynasty is deeply loved by the people.

In recent years, exploitation has become increasingly serious, and the government has become increasingly impatient with the people, and the attitude of officials has become increasingly unfriendly. This is also a very obvious fact.

When the son was anxious and anxious, the officials under his rule were naturally influenced by the breath of the emperor. The entire Wei Dynasty slid into the abyss unstoppable.

The father and mother of Huang, and ordinary people like Li Guozhu, cannot tell the general trend of the world. They only know that their lives on Fujian Road are getting harder and harder, and they are almost breathless, but in Dongfan, they live a very relaxed life. They feel a little bit like living a life every day, full of energy!

Although there are so many things and many things to do, everyone does not feel tired because hope is right in front of them.

Li Guozhu has read several books and felt a vague feeling in his heart that not only the Nan'an Marquis Mansion gave everyone hope, but if he was hit with a whip and a stick, it would be counterproductive.

Everyone can convince themselves and feel that they have a chance on this big island. Li Guozhu summarized two words of conclusion, namely: fairness.

...

Everyone was talking on the roadside, and the place was three or four miles north of the village head of the seventeenth, seventh and nine hundredth households.

When you turn around, you can see the Arrow Tower. Not far ahead there is a small square city with brick and stone buildings, with dozens of soldiers from the Marquis’ Mansion stationed, giving people a sense of peace of mind.

In recent days, there is no longer a serious smell of burning plants. Around the sides of the official road around the island, more than 200 miles of land, the places suitable for land reclamation have been burned through wasteland, and even there are fewer mosquitoes.

Today's task is to start building a fork road connecting the great official road between the hundreds of households.

Before this, all the places were covered with wasteland, streams, woodlands, hills, shrubs, layers and endlessly looking. In addition, the mountains visible from afar gave people a desolate and terrifying feeling.

This is a wild land, backed by the sea and the mountains ahead. If you don’t have great perseverance and determination to preside over the development, you may not be able to settle down on such a desolate island.

I didn't stand for a long time, and the crowd was in a stir.

Five or six horses galloped from the southwest, and the sound of hooves was heard from afar.

Liu Baihu has had a fever in recent days and has been lying down halfway to rest, and then he struggled.

"Liu Zhen, a 1700 household, met the superior official."

"Thank you for your hard work in Liu Baihu."

The person who came had a gentle tone, and was in his thirties, had a white face and no beard. He looked very smart, and he wore a short blue robe, breeches and breeches and boots, and he looked very capable.

Nowadays, the civil servants in the Nan'an Hou Mansion wear wide clothes and big sleeves when there are any cultural activities, and usually wear this short robe similar to an arrow robe to facilitate the work.

There was a buzzing sound all around him... Fu Qian presided over the Jiangzuo Department, and he had a planning department, a transportation department, a dining department, a water conservancy department and other departments under his command. He probably had gone to the island more than a dozen times. Take the hundred-house cottages in front of him as an example, it was the Jiangzuo Department's project.

Minzhuang was selected and selected. There were more than a thousand official officials and craftsmen in the Craftsaw Department. Fu Qian, as the chief official, was also a member of the local area. Everyone knew that he was highly valued by Xu Zixian, the Marquis of Nan'an, and was a official around the Marquis of Jun.

Such a senior official, even if he is in Fujian, is still a famous official, and he appears in front of everyone in such a hurry.

Fu Qian was surrounded by six subordinates, four of whom were officials from the Craftsmanship Department, and two were guards assigned to Fu Qian by the Nan'an Prefecture Military and Cavalry Battalion.

The island cannot be said to be completely safe. If Fu Qian has an identity like this, if someone who is not opens his eyes and is cut off his head, the loss of Nan'an Marquis Mansion will be too great. It is natural to properly protect the security guards.

"Thank you all for your hard work." Fu Qian was taught by the wife's family and knew that the more low-key and humble he was, the better his image and reputation would be. He now bowed to the officials and households of all the households.

Everyone returned the greeting in a mess, with excitement and joy on their faces.

At this time, Fu Qian jumped off the horse, and several servants also dismounted. One servant had a cowhide bag hanging on his chest. At this time, he took out the map from the bag and took out a charcoal pen.

People in the craftsman have become quite used to this kind of outdoor homework.

Fu Qian pressed the drawing on the green grass beside the drawing, and then used charcoal brush to draw the route for several hundred households to see.

"The three hundred households are separated by about five miles, and each reaches the official road is seven, five miles, and five and a half miles. The journey you build to the official road is seventeen and a half miles, and it takes fifteen miles to connect to each other. It takes more than thirty miles to build a road, of course, it is a rammed earth road, a road with grey stone, a pure stone, or a stone road. It costs thousands of chunks of money to dig ditches and drain trees to plant stones and gravels per mile. The road needs to be repaired like this, and our Hou Mansion will go bankrupt before the road is repaired... This project will be completed before the landing is opened, and the project period is about twenty days. Our craftsmanship department will produce ten major engineering craftsmen, two craftsmen and fifty craftsmen, three 3 100 households, more than one thousand people from the Dingkou, how many can three 100 households get out of the mules and horses get out?"

Liu Baihu coughed twice and said, "This hundred households can make sixty horses, one hundred mules, one hundred donkeys, and five cows."

The other hundreds of households are similar. The three hundred households have nearly two hundred horses, more than three hundred mules and donkeys, and about ten cows.
