Chapter 3113 Ship arrives

The merchant ship that Laizhou had assigned to Bai Shan came from the sea outside Laizhou early this morning, but it took more than an hour to reach the Longchi Wharf, which was faster than traveling by land.

Under everyone's attention, the merchant ship slowly entered the port and stopped at the berth...

After a rest today, the long-term workers who had nothing to do were crowded on the pier, and they all screamed with joy when they saw the merchant ship entering the port.

Bai Shan and all the merchant ships were safely docked. After confirming that there was no problem, they set off firecrackers, and the sky-shattering firecrackers rang out...

Bai Shan stretched out his hand to cover Zhou Man's ears, and the smile on his face couldn't help but rise. As soon as the Longchi Pier opened, he had a foundation for what he was going to do.

Inspector Guo also had an uncontrollable smile on his face, ignoring Inspector Liu's forced smile, he turned to talk to Bai Shan when he saw him covering Zhou Man's ears, the smile on his face also faded, and he turned his head. Continuing to look at the merchant ship, the corners of his mouth twitched slightly.

The firecrackers gradually ceased, the wooden board was placed between the boat and the pier, and the people on the boat disembarked...

These four ships belonged to two companies, and they had been parked at the Laizhou Wharf.

Inspector Liu persuaded them to switch to the Longchi Wharf, but he gave them a lot of benefits, such as the remaining ships docked in Laizhou, preferential taxes each time they entered the port and exited the port.

He deliberately chose two big companies, Chen's and Su's. There are many sea-going ships from such companies. Although two of them are docked at the Longchi Wharf, there are still many sea-going ships left.

Compared with the sound Laizhou Wharf, the Longchi Wharf is simple and very far from the county seat.

If it was a company with only one or two merchant ships, I'm afraid it would give up the Laizhou Wharf and switch to the Longchi Wharf for the sake of cheapness.

Governor Liu looked at the manager of the company who came to them, and comforted himself in his heart: "It's okay, I have agreed with Bai Shan, the four ships will go to the Longchi Wharf as long as they go out to sea and enter the port this year, but they are not sure. How about a year later.

So if Bai Shan can't keep the boat a year from now, they can't be blamed.

Chen's and Su's stewards came down from the boat with a smile to meet everyone. They received a message from the owner not long ago that they should not enter the Laizhou pier when they escorted the boat back, but stop at the newly opened Longchi pier.

To be honest, although they often go to Laizhou Wharf, they really don't know where Longchi Wharf is.

In the end, I went to Laizhou first, stopped outside the port, and used a small boat to send two people on board to guide the way, and then I found the place.

Seriously, it's really close.

They didn't ask why, since the head of the family ordered it, it was obviously beneficial to do so.

They have not met Governor Guo, but they have seen Governor Liu, but at this time, they are not standing in the center. In the center is a...pregnant little lady and a handsome man, but the most eye-catching or the pair standing behind them.

It is also a pregnant lady and a more handsome man.

The two stewards hesitated for a while, then stepped forward to salute with smiles, first introduced themselves, and then raised their heads in confusion.

Inspector Liu smiled and explained to them, "This is Her Royal Highness the Princess and her consort."

Manager Chen and Manager Su's eyes lit up, and immediately saluted Mingda and Bai Erlang.

Only then did Inspector Liu introduce Inspector Guo, and then Bai Shan.

Knowing that Bai Shan was the magistrate of Beihai County, the two of them couldn't help but look up at him. If there were no accidents, they would deal with the magistrate frequently next year.

Everyone came early, and we haven't had breakfast yet, so Bai Shan wanted a quick solution, especially since Zhou Man and Ming Da were pregnant women, so they couldn't stand for a long time, and they couldn't blow their hair too much, but after meeting the two stewards, he still remained First let go of Cui Wei on the left side of the rear and introduce: "This is the chief engineer of the dock, Mr. Cui from the Ministry of Engineering."

Steward Chen and Steward Su respected Cui Wei even more, and hurriedly bowed and saluted.

But Cui Wei didn't like to talk, so he just clenched his fists and bowed back and stood silently.

Bai Shan quickly said, "Let them get off the boat."

Steward Chen didn't expect Bai Shan to be in such a hurry. He wanted to have a relationship with several officials, especially the princess and the concubine, which was rare.

But seeing that Governor Guo and the others had no objection, he smiled as well, and then looked behind them.

Bai Shan then pointed to the people watching the fun at the back and on the side of the pier and said, "These are all workers on the pier, with quick hands and feet and great strength. If the two stewards need coolies, they can choose from them."

Fang Xiancheng immediately came out from behind Bai Shan and said with a smile, "As for the warehouses, our wharf has already prepared them for both of them. Because it coincides with the great joy of sailing, the two warehouses can be used for one year free of charge for both of them."

This is indeed a happy event. Although the cost of renting warehouses here may not be very large, it is still very happy to have free ones, and it also shows that Beihai County values ​​them.

Steward Chen and Steward Su took a few of their subordinates to the side of the wharf to pick people.

Although the workers on the dock have worked hard these past few months, they have eaten well and look stronger than when they first arrived.

Steward Chen's eyes swept over them, and he was quite satisfied, so he slid over and asked them to disembark and carry the goods.

The workers looked at each other, but didn't move.

Manager Chen was stunned for a moment and asked, "What's wrong?"

In the crowd, a worker asked loudly, "How much is the unloading?"

Manager Chen: ... the warehouse is free, he thought that the labor is also free, after all, these workers are on the dock.

Fang Xiancheng was also a little hesitant. Just when he was thinking about whether to ask the long-term workers to help, Bai Shan said with a smile: "Steward Chen can discuss the price with them. These long-term workers are honest people, and they are good at talking."

Manager Chen's eyes flashed slightly, and he replied yes with a smile. After looking at Manager Su, they set a price, which was nearly half the price of unloading the goods at the Laizhou Wharf.

Bai Shan, who had been to the Laizhou Wharf, naturally knew it, but he did not speak, but looked at his workers.

Sure enough, the long-term workers were very happy. Although the money was very little, they could still make money after taking a rest today. In their eyes, the money was wasted.

Manager Chen and Manager Su felt at ease, and after picking up more than 20 people each, they led them onto the ship to unload the cargo.

The goods they brought back from the south this time included porcelain, cloth, tea, and ornaments such as jade from the south, which were all valuables.

After the things were moved down, they did not receive them to the warehouse immediately. There are so many people who came to watch the sailing today. Of course, it can be sold one wave after another.

So the things were delivered, and the guys from the two families carefully placed their things on the open space in front of the warehouse.

Sure enough, many people came forward to see it curiously.
