Chapter 804 Iron Ship

It was quiet in the hall. Master Zhengxin took the jade slip in front of the two and began to read it. The powerful soul of Sanxian quickly absorbed the information in the jade slip, but it took some effort to analyze the wisdom in the information.

After a while, the Master Zhengxin looked up and said, "If you two are willing to swear to serve Taiyi Sect for five hundred years, then Taiyi Sect can guarantee you enough cultivation resources. As long as you need to practice, you will have everything, but only for your own cultivation.

In addition, if there is any contribution, Taiyi Sect will also receive rewards.

Specifically, you can negotiate with Master Mingxin.”

…………

The annexation war on Yingzhou is in full swing. Some people take the initiative to start the war, some passively respond, some succeed, but more fail. It is not uncommon for fishermen to gain profits between snipes and clams.

Famine became the biggest motivation for the people. In order to have a bit of food, the people joined the army and went to the front line to fight.

If you die, then die. At least you can still hold a cushion; if you win, you can grab a bite.

Famine is the best driving force. Legions in various countries are expanding rapidly. A legion can be millions, but its combat capability is limited because the proportion of practitioners is getting smaller and smaller, and the arms equipment is seriously insufficient.

On the withered earth are dry corpses, and the evil spirit above Yingzhou is rolling, which has begun to seriously affect the earth. As long as you enter the battlefield, many soldiers will be furious and kill after a little stimulation.

But such a crazy war has not seriously affected the western part of Yingzhou for the time being.

Although there has been a drought in the west of Yingzhou, especially in the areas near the sea, food can be obtained from the sea in the end.

Unlike the East Sea of ​​Yingzhou, there is no powerful monster in the sea in the west of Yingzhou. All powerful monsters are "the elixirs of activity" and have long been killed by the masters of Feitu Shenzhou.

However, drought has always had some impact. For example, in Ningguo this year, many people gathered at the beach just for the seafood here.

"Bada...Bada..." Old Man Yang was smoking a dry tobacco and sat on the reef by the sea to look into the distance.

At this time, there were people everywhere on the sea, shouting, fighting and crying. Many people came from the mainland to flee. Although Ningguo had already begun the road to industrialization, industrialization could not solve the food problem for the time being, and the industrialization was only in the western part of Ningguo, close to the seaside area.

Many people who come from the mainland don’t understand the sea at all. Often, when waves come, many people disappear forever. Even in a relatively good weather, the waves are sometimes as high as one or two meters. This place is an immortal realm after all, and the sea always has a bit of temper.

However, most people only have a little basic cultivation, some even have no cultivation at all, and they are still hungry and can't block the waves.

The beach was quickly dug up by refugees, and sometimes there would be a fight for a crab the size of a nail, or even die for it. Almost no one cared about the people swept away by the waves, and everyone was trying to find food.

Next to them, there are also some smart people who know a little magic. They will condense fresh water balls from the sea to exchange for some food.

But there are too many refugees. Today, more than a month later, there is nowhere to be found by the sea; everyone can only explore deeper seas.

The deep sea hides sin, and many people are killed from behind while snatching food.

Old Man Yang and other people who once lived by the sea, who rely on fishing to make a living sigh.

"These days are getting harder and harder." Lao Yang finally said something.

"Who said no? Alas, we are a little better here, we are finally close to the sea. I heard that many people have starved to death in the inland." Someone next to us agreed.

"But this is not a solution. I heard that there are many foreign people in the border area who want to come to us to make a living, but they are blocked outside the border."

Everyone started to discuss for a long time again. Suddenly, a few young men came over and the first one shouted: "Dad, uncles, there is a big happy event, a big happy event!"

"It's Xiao Yang coming."

"Xiao Yang, what's the matter?"

Everyone smelled twitchy.

Yang Jian ran to the front of the reef in one breath and gasped, "Zhang Quan's Prince Consort's Spark Fire Liyuan Group has begun to sell large iron ships publicly.

Just now, a member of Xinghuo Liaoyuan Group came to our village and said that Xinghuo Liaoyuan Group was preparing to sell fishing boats made of steel, both big and small, and one boat in a village is enough.

Dad, uncles, with a big iron ship, we can go deep into the sea to fish. There are too few fish and shrimps on the beach, all of them are small fish and shrimps. If we can enter the sea, there will be a great harvest every day.”

Old Man Yang slowly walked down the reef, "This big iron ship should be very expensive. Just talk about this iron, why don't you have three or five copper plates per kilogram of iron? And an iron ship shouldn't be ten tons of iron, so it's going to cost a little...thirty or fifty taels of silver.

Where can we get this money?"

"Dad, it's not a ten tons, but a 500 tons large ship. It's just a displacement. A large ship costs 5,000 taels of gold. It's enough for a village to use one ship.

But Dad, this is the first time I bought an iron ship, and there are discount strategies. For details, let’s talk about it later when we go back to the village.”

"Five thousand taels of gold..." Everyone immediately exclaimed. Fifty taels of silver are astronomical numbers for ordinary people. These five thousand taels of gold are...mythical numbers.

But no matter what, it is good to go back to the village first.

When I arrived in the village, I saw a relatively good motorcycle parked at the entrance of the village, with the sign of the Xinghuo Liaoyuan Group on it. When I arrived in the center of the village, I saw a person dressed in kind and was saying something to the villagers. Needless to say, this person is a member of the Xinghuo Liaoyuan Group.

As soon as the old man Yang came back, everyone immediately said, "The village chief is back."

When he heard that the village chief was back, the person from Xinghuo Liaoyuan Group immediately jogged over. He was obviously in the foundation-building stage, but he was not arrogant when facing the three-legged cat Yang, but was a little cautious. "Hello, Village Chief Yang, I am a salesperson of Xinghuo Liaoyuan Group, to be precise, a salesperson in the ships.

My name is Zhang Jingxin. The village chief just needs to call me a name, or according to the popular saying now, it is OK to call Mr. Zhang."

"Then call you Mr. Zhang. Mr. Zhang's big ship costs 5,000 taels of gold. Old man, I kept thinking along the way. Even if I sold all our village, I couldn't get 500 taels of gold. I think Mr. Zhang should have another way."

Old Man Yang is a bit wise when he can be the village chief. Along the way, he is constantly thinking: Five thousand taels of gold is simply an astronomical number and the village cannot take it out at all; but since the other party dares to come and sell, he must have certain strategies.

Zhang Jingxin said directly: "We have three types of fishing boats with different displacements, all of which are large iron ships. There are 300 tons, 500 tons, and 800 tons.

A 300 tons cost two thousand five hundred taels of gold; a 500 tons cost five thousand taels of gold; a 800 tons cost ten thousand taels of gold.

My personal recommendation is a large ship with a displacement of 500 tons. The displacement is small, the ship is unstable, and it cannot sail further. A fishing boat with a displacement of 500 tons can just accommodate the whole village. After testing, it is enough to penetrate 500 kilometers deep into the sea while ensuring absolute safety.

Under extreme circumstances, or when the weather is particularly good, it is enough to penetrate two thousand kilometers. But two thousand kilometers is the limit, because there are always some huge sea beasts in the sea, and among these huge sea beasts, there are many that can be achieved with the Golden Pill stage."

Old Man Yang nodded, "We all understand this principle. But I wonder how to sell this ship?"

"There are two ways." Zhang Jingxin took out a document, "The first method, and the method I recommend first, is mortgage purchase. The second method is employment and leasing.

Let’s talk about the second type first. The second type is simple. It is that the ship makes us the Sparkling Group. You can rent it, and we can hire you. But this method has low profits and is in danger of being fired at any time."

Old Man Yang nodded and understood these principles.

Then Zhang Jingxin handed the document to Old Man Yang with both hands, "This is the first way to purchase it, which is to buy it with a mortgage.

The so-called mortgage purchase is equivalent to borrowing and mortgage in the future. You pay a portion of cash first, and pay as much as you want; the rest will be repaid every month. We will charge a certain interest rate, 5% interest.

You can sell the purchased seafood directly to our Xinghuo Liaoyuan Group; you can also sell it yourself and get the money and repay the loan.

Specifically, this is...so...

If Village Chief Yang has any intention, we can go to the dock of Xinghuo Liaoyuan Group to see the boat."

Zhang Jingxin explained skillfully, and Old Man Yang understood. But there was a question, "Mr. Zhang, what you said is very good, but there was a question, in the current famine, who still has the money to buy food? Maybe we were robbed as soon as we got ashore."

"Don't worry, if the big ship wants to dock, it must go to a large port? There will inevitably be officers and soldiers around, and there will be no problems."

"Guardians and soldiers?" Village Chief Yang narrowed his eyes and shook his head, "Oh, this boat is too expensive, let's discuss in our village. Mr. Zhang will come here again in a few days."

When Zhang Jingxin heard this, her heart was cold; when she came here in a few days, it would be a negative answer.

But Zhang Jingxin turned his mind and understood what the problem was - officers and soldiers! Or the bandits were almost the same. The bandits passed like combing the soldiers, and this sentence was almost the catchphrase of almost every person.

Thinking of this, Zhang Jingxin immediately said: "Village Chief, Your Majesty is reforming the country and vigorously promoting reforms; at this moment, the New Port is the area where Your Majesty personally inspected, and it is also a place where the prince consort, princess and queens are all focusing on.

In addition, this is also a choice to change destiny. Once successful, Yangjia Village will become the upstart of Ningguo today - a businessman; the village chief will not have heard of how rich the big businessmen in Ningguo are now.
