Just when Old Man Fei was busy making money in Fengtian, forming gangs and cleaning up those disobedient bannermen, Yu Zhong and Mo Jing took Heilongjiang General Pengchun to the Beihai, which is on the edge of Lake Baikal.

Standing on the high ground by the lake, looking into the distance, then rode the horse to the lake, and drank it with a mouthful of cool lake water... Yu Zhong and Mo Jing's actions made Pengchun again sure that he could not understand these two people.

"General Peng, do you want to have a bite too? Beihai is one of the cleanest water sources in the world. It would be a pity to come here without trying it..." Mo Jing held up the lake water with his hand and washed his face. Seeing Pengchun still sitting high on the horse, he asked with a smile.

"No need." Pengchun looked at the lake and felt that the sunlight reflected by the lake was a little dazzling, so he turned his head and asked, "Girl Jing, you and Lord Yu insisted that I come here with you. What is the purpose of? Now that I have arrived at the North Sea, you must give me an answer, right?"

"Don't worry, General Peng!" Yu Zhong held a silver kettle and handed it to Pengchun, "Try this water first, this water is better than many spring waters. Bang, taste it..."

"..." Seeing that the other couple wanted to drink water by themselves, Pengchun had no choice but to take the kettle and drink a sip. After drinking, he stared at Yu Zhong and Mo Jing, waiting for their answers.

"General Peng, how much do you know about the Beihai?" Seeing Pengchun so persistent, he insisted on asking why immediately. Yu Zhong didn't care much about himself, so he spoke.

"It's quite a big lake... Well, the lake tastes good!" After smacking his lips, Pengchun picked up the silver pot and took a sip.

"General Peng, is the lake water in Beihai delicious?" Mo Jing walked over and asked.

"...What do you want to say, Princess Jing? Let's just say it straight, don't keep twitching around like this..." Pengchun said.

"Haha, General Peng, you're quite anxious... I wonder if you have eaten 'Beihai Fish'?" Yu Zhong asked.

"'Beihai Fish'? You two are so embarrassed to mention this to me?... Humph!" Pengchun threw the silver pot in his hand at Yu Zhong, turned his horse's head and left.

"So anxious? Hello, don't leave..." Seeing that Pengchun and his subordinates had no sign of turning back, and they rode their horses faster and faster, Yu Zhong and Mo Jing did not chase after him, but because Zhong shouted loudly, "General Peng, you are leaving now. When your subordinates look for you, you will have nothing to say..."

...

"Sir Yu, Princess Jing Ge, what do you two mean?"

Pengchun is back again because Yu Zhong grasped his pain point... Heilongjiang has little fuel! As a general, he cannot win battles with his subordinates or gain benefits for his subordinates. He is not considered a good general. During the Western Expedition to Galdan, the army led by Pengchun from Heilongjiang repeatedly lost the opportunity to make meritorious contributions. The whole army looked at the people in other troops who were promoted and made money, and his eyes were red and purple. However, it was not a human reason for not making merit, so Pengchun was still reasonable, but if he couldn't make money, Pengchun was a little bit unforgivable.

Heilongjiang used to be a remote and bitter place, and it would be fine without oil and water. Being sent here to join the army can only be considered as God's eyes. But now it's different. Once the customs is opened, money comes. How have the soldiers in Heilongjiang heard of millions of taels of silver? And they were transported out of their own nose!

If it weren't for the fact that these silvers were either from the court or from the Ministry of Internal Affairs, Pengchun would have doubted whether he would have sent troops to steal it. Similarly, if he hadn't been afraid of causing friction with Russia and being investigated by Kangxi, he would have doubted that he might have sent troops to the opposite country to grab the Western merchants who came to buy things.

For this matter, he once looked for Yu Zhong, hoping that Yu Zhong could take advantage of his position to give some convenience... that is, some benefits.

However, Yu Zhong refused. He told him that most of the people who came to Heilongjiang to sell things were royal merchants from the Ministry of Internal Affairs, and most of the people who came to buy things were noble merchants from Russia and the Netherlands. Once they intervened in, it might lead to a lot of trouble. Therefore, he advised him to give up this idea.

Since the admiral who was directly in charge of the customs had spoken, he had no choice but to give up this path of wealth.

However, later he heard that Mo Jing hired some Oroqen people to fish in the Beihai, and sold the fish at a sky-high price, making a fortune. When he heard the news, he immediately became furious, but he was really angry.

He blamed Zhong and Mo Jing. No matter how much everyone got along well, especially since Yu Zhong had been his subordinate, why did he do this with his back? Since he knew that he had a profit, why didn’t he call him one? He actually took it alone!

Originally he wanted to settle the score with Yu Zhong, but later he gave up this idea. After all, Yu Zhong is no longer Yu Zhong, no longer his subordinate, and has made great contributions to saving Kangxi's army. He has had a good relationship with Feiyanggu, Fuquan, and Sun Sike and other military bosses. If he offended him for nothing, it would not be good for him. Therefore, he could only secretly hate in his heart and find an opportunity to see if he could secretly stumbling to this guy.

However, before he could come up with a revenge, Yu Zhong and Mo Jing went to Beijing to pay their birthday to the Empress Dowager. As soon as these two men came back, they took him to the North Sea land.

"Actually, we have also heard recently that General Peng, you have complaints about us not considering the brothers in the Heilongjiang army. Even many of the old brothers in Jaques are very dissatisfied with me! ... I said that I have benefited but forgot my brothers!"

Yu Zhong's blunt statement made Pengchun look hot, but he did not think that he and the soldiers in Heilongjiang were wrong. This is the case in this world. If you make money together, you will make money alone. If you don't leave some oil and water for the people next to you?

"Actually, how dare I do you dare? Not to mention that Heilongjiang Customs must rely on the care of all the brothers in the army, I can't forget everyone just by relying on my friendship with all the brothers in the army!... General Peng, don't you?"

"Master Yu, you can think so!" Pengchun kicked off his horse, walked to Yu Zhong, patted the other person's shoulder, and continued, "But, Madam Yu has not forgotten everyone, and it seems that he doesn't remember everyone much..."

"It's easy to say, General Peng seems to be very resentful about Zhong, but this is also good. Everyone can spread the word..." Mo Jing walked over and said with a smile.

"Have you spoke out?" Pengchun asked.

"That's right!" Mo Jing shook his wet bangs when washing his face with lake water and said, "In fact, Yu Zhong did not forget his brothers in the army before, nor did he forget you, General Peng, as your old boss, but he could not express anything at that time!"

"How do you say this?"

"Eight words: 'Customs are just open, everyone is paying attention to it', that's all." Mo Jing said.

"Well, this makes sense. But what about Beihai Fish? I heard that Jing Ge Ge makes a lot of money..." Pengchun said.

"General Peng, you are the General of Heilongjiang. Do you know how many times Mo Jing sold fish in total?" Yu Zhong said again.

"This..." Pengchun recalled that he just heard that Mo Jing made a fortune by selling fish, and was furious because the other party was eating alone. Now, it seems that Mo Jing didn't sell much fish.

"Once, only once!" Yu Zhong said with a finger.

"That's just a way out, to see what the people in the pass think of Beihai fish! After all, in China, there are abundant resources, and there are probably no less than tens of millions of fish species. Who knows whether this Beihai fish will be loved by people, and who knows what price these fish can be sold? If you don't know the market and do something big, wouldn't it just cause resentment?" Mo Jing said.

"Do you two bring me here this time..." Pengchun already understood a little, but he was still not sure.

"That's right, I just rely on the sea to eat..." He waved his hand and pointed to Lake Baikal, Yu Zhong said: "Although there are many rare things in Manchuria, those things have their own masters. Only the Bukhat Ula General Manager of Mad has the right to do it. The customs is set up by the court, and if we make profits from it, it will be good for anyone. Therefore, we will open another way of wealth..."

"So that's it, hahaha, okay! Lord Yu is indeed worthy of being our own person in Heilongjiang. He is still looking at his own brothers..." Pengchun was overjoyed and felt that Yu Zhong suddenly became very pleasing to him.

"Mr. Peng, don't be too happy too early? Selling fish is indeed very profitable, but it may not be enough for tens of thousands of soldiers in Heilongjiang to share the shares, right? Besides, some people want to take the lead..." Mo Jing reminded him.

"Yes, this..."

"Haha, General Peng, don't listen to Mo Jing scare you. There are so many good things in the Beihai!" Yu Zhong pointed to the lake again and said, "Since you eat from the sea, of course you have to know what is in the sea. The Beihai is vast, about the same size as Hainan Island in the south of our Qing Dynasty, and it is even more unfathomable, so the products are extremely abundant. And there are many that cannot be found in other places. These are specialties... General Peng, do you know? There are more than 200 shrimps in this lake alone, and many of them are light in color, almost pure white. Have you seen this kind of shrimp? Have you heard of it?...I also heard people nearby say that there is also a completely transparent fish in this lake, which is a rare treasure. Even if you only catch one in a year, it is enough to get a big price for sale within the pass. And..."

Yu Zhong stuffed almost all the aquatic materials about Lake Baikal that he heard from Mo Jing into Pengchun's ears, regardless of whether the other party could remember it. Anyway, he kept talking about the broad prospects for the development of the Beihai. Pengchun and his men's eyes shone brightly, and they didn't come back to their senses for a while.
