"In addition to us people not understanding it, there are also personnel issues involved. How many people are supported in Tai'ancang and Beitongcang? Once Tianjin Port is completed, less labor will be required..."
A mechanized port requires thousands of employees of all types, let alone in this era of manpower.
Tai'ancang has a labor force of 10,000 or 20,000 people and supports equal families.
Beitongcang is larger in scale and supports more people. In the past three hundred years, several temporary settlements outside the warehouse have now been upgraded to counties, and all of them are upper counties.
If you rely on the mountains to eat the mountains, if you rely on the sea to eat the sea, once the port is opened, God knows how many laborers will gather?
Labor is cheap, but with the arrival of people, problems will only increase. Just eating and drinking is enough to give people a headache.
"If management is handed over to businessmen, will the matter be solved?" Nian Run is still reluctant.
"Don't forget that the kid is difficult to deal with. We are here to manage the dock. The kid's problem is our problem. It's obvious that the water is uneven, so why should we handle it?"
"What kind of principles are there, but how can we guarantee our rights and interests? When we do things, the situation is uneven, at least we should continue to give, but those businessmen, are they willing to support so many people?"
"Didn't this problem already have a template when the household market was opened?" Fang Fang suggested, "The Ming Dynasty managed dock workers through Caobang, and we solved it through the employment system. On our territory, Isn’t this still guaranteed?”
"But I still feel that this matter is difficult to handle!"
The capital investment required to build a dock is too large. It can be solved not by tens of thousands taels, but hundreds of thousands taels. Even if we follow the equation step by step, the investment will be at least seven to eight hundred thousand taels, or even millions. It's possible.
What's wrong with this money? Throw it to the Wu Dynasty and build a port for the Wu Dynasty?
What kind of spirit is this?
Is the spirit of sacrificing oneself for others so noble?
"The maritime business of the Ming Dynasty has developed to a bottleneck. If this bottleneck cannot be broken, the Shanghai Group will inevitably decline!" Fang Fang said in a troubled manner.
"Are you kidding me?"
The maritime trade in the Ming Dynasty was obviously booming, but who dared to say that it had reached a bottleneck and would decline?
"If they didn't reach a bottleneck, why did they start heading north?"
"No one thinks there's too much money, right?" Nian Run gave his own explanation.
"Fine!"
Listening to Nian Run's explanation, the equation became clear. No matter how he explained it, Nian Run would not understand it.
Nianrun looked at the Ming Dynasty from Kyushu, and the equation looked at it from a global perspective, so the results obtained were naturally different.
In the final analysis, it is still influenced by the heavenly kingdom and the wealth and treasures of Kyushu.
At present, with the westward exploration of the land along the land of the Liao Kingdom and the Later Tang Dynasty, coupled with the maritime passages of the Ming Dynasty and the Chu Kingdom, most of the world map of Kyushu in the alien world has been explored. The remaining map is foggy. If nothing else, it should be the same as that of the previous life. Not bad at all.
Maritime merchants of the Ming Dynasty would be blocked to the west by the Kunlun Continent, making it difficult to enter the extreme west; while going east would be blocked by the vast Pacific Ocean, making it difficult to enter the New World.
This is not a bottleneck, what is this?
But Nianrun obviously can't see this.
Faced with Fang Fang suddenly no longer insisting on his own construction, Nian Run was speechless. According to his idea, if he choked a few more words, he could throw the dock to Fang Fang. But now that Fang Fang shrank back, Nian Run felt a little numb for a while.
Taking a deep breath, Nian Run finally said that he no longer pretended, "If I leave the dock to you, can you do it?"
"Do not have time!"
Equation shook his head.
From yesterday when the Documents Division first sent the files to now, many things that happened were guiding him to set his sights on Tianjin Pier.
I don't want to waste his time, just talk about it, and still want him to contribute. I'm afraid Nian Run is not thinking blindly.
What happened to the Minister of War?
The Minister of War cannot let him work in vain!
"No wonder everyone who has come into contact with you says you are slippery!" Nian Run smiled and pointed at Fang Fang, "But I have already tested you out. It is not that easy to escape. I just said it. Under the current situation Tian Tianjin Port must expand. After half a year of contact, Tianjin Port has affected our exchanges with the Ming Dynasty, and we must go to sea, even if it is not for sea profits, just to deter the Jin Kingdom and the Three Hans. This port It also needs to be expanded, but the key is how to expand it and to what extent?”
The Wu Dynasty had a large territory, but there were not many places suitable for building large seaports.
Tianjin in Youzhou, Laizhou in Qingzhou, and Xuzhou Port in Xuzhou are the only three places that can be significantly improved.
But now only Tianjin can be built. The reason is that the people of Laizhou want the canal, the site of the Three War in Xuzhou. After it is built, who will benefit in the end?
“I’m not done with the futures market yet!”
"I didn't ask you to devote yourself wholeheartedly. You can completely control it, just like you command the second generation. I will provide you with all the manpower. I will go to Tai'an City to get the policy. If it fails, it is mine. If it succeeds, it is yours." First achievement!"
"No need to bother?"
Faced with Nian Run's sincerity, Fang Fang firmly refused and said, "There are detailed records of my setting up the market in the Beidi Documents Department. Mr. Nian, you can definitely copy it. To put it bluntly, it's just a picture of a pie, giving businessmen their expectations for the future. Go long on me." I’ll give you another detailed strategy!”
He hasn't seen his sister for almost a year, and Fang Fang still wants to return to Tai'an City after the settlement. He has no intention of staying in the Northland for a long time.
Once a market has a good model, it can be abandoned in three years.
But if a large-scale dock is built from scratch and then managed properly, we don’t even have to think about it for ten years.
Fang Fang came forward in order to protect his sister and establish a cornerstone in this troubled world, rather than really wanting to work for the Wu Dynasty.
"Fine!"
Nian Run sighed in his heart. He wanted to try to lure Fang Fang over, but for no other reason than to give Fang Fang a start. After all, Fang Fang had been left in the Northland for a long time. Not to mention that he couldn't do it, neither could the three elders. But I didn’t expect Fang Fang to reject it himself, “Then we’ve agreed, you come up with the strategy and I’ll execute it!”
"We can come up with strategies, but here I would like to remind you that the aliens who are guarding the disaster outside Yuyang this year are just thinking about having a bite to eat. There is no need to blindly take precautions. They can turn harm into benefit. You must know how to repair the dock. Whether you are going to die, whether you are crying in your own family or someone else is crying, I think you should think carefully about it!"
Human construction, without mechanical assistance, how can there be no trouble?
In Qinggu Village, the treatment given by Equation was considered good, and there were no requirements on progress. Several young adults died in just a few months.
The construction of the seaport is difficult and the scale of the project is even greater. In this backward era, there is no way it can be completed without the sacrifice of hundreds of lives.
"This must have made others cry!" Nian Run laughed.
At this point, Nian Run still didn't know what the equation meant. Although the strategy for the equation hadn't come out yet, Nian Run had already figured out how to arrange those foreign races.
Indeed, isn’t it just for food?
If you have the strength to rebel, you will naturally have the strength to build projects. Whatever skills the coolies have, the Wu Dynasty can still afford a few meals. As for whether they are obedient or not, Nian Run wants to see who dares to cut corners.
