Chapter 238: 6 more Tier 3 battleships
They chatted casually, and the four gentlemen gave Yan Changwu what they wanted to say and made many favorable suggestions. Yan Changwu's intentions were still not exhausted. They asked them to go back and go to the charter and said: "My Southeast Mansion invites you four to be consultants so that you can consult at any time! I will come to Kaohsiung in the future. , As long as I am here, the gate of the Warlord’s Palace is open to you!"
The four gentlemen were overjoyed and said, "Thank you for your favor!"
Compared with the government, this Governor Yan respected people more and showed a high level of cultivation. Just as the saying goes, "the prime minister can hold a boat in his belly", these high officials have a higher level of self-cultivation than the world's people, and this is the case with Governor Yan.
Gan Hui, Yan Qingquan, and three marine merchants came in and reported to Yan Changwu.
"We will send ten warships to the waters of Guangdong Province, with Wailingding Island as a base. The deployed warships are a fifth-tier cruise ship (acting as a flagship), eight sixth-tier cruise ships and a fast supply ship!"
The force sent by is not small. At present, the Southeast Prefecture has four cruise ships in North Korea and four cruise ships in Ryukyu, all of which are Tier 6 cruisers. There is no Tier 5 cruiser, and there is no fast supply ship.
Considering that the South China Sea is really big enough and has to deal with many red hair fans, Gan Hui pointed out in an internal report that the number of warships is still insufficient, but the Kaohsiung Shipbuilding Factory is still unable to keep up with the rapid development of the situation.
With the current strength of the Southeast Fleet, guarding the waters of Fujian Province is not a problem, but entering the larger waters of the South China Sea still requires more warships.
The next one is good news. Mr. Four donated one million taels of silver, and all the sea merchants who attended the meeting just now donated one million taels of silver. The result was a generous donation. Several people proposed, everyone agreed, and all of a sudden Get a million taels of silver.
Six third-tier battleships have arrived!
At the end of the Ming Dynasty, money from all over the world came to China. It is a pity that those staunch patriots in the Ming Dynasty resolutely resisted the emperor’s desire to collect industrial and commercial mineral taxes and exploit the bad ideas of the people. Our lovely Yan Dasao will naturally not commit. This kind of mistake, from the beginning is that you have not negotiated a 17% value-added tax!
Yan Changwu was overjoyed and stood up and said, "Thank you for your kindness and kindness, I will have something in return!"
Gan Hui continued to report that Guangdong maritime merchants will send a team of merchant ships to Luzon next month. There are about 25 ships. The detachment fleet will send two battleships and a supply ship to escort.
The number of squadrons is on account. Considering that the battle against Batavia will be launched soon, most of the warships will be assembled, so no more warships can be sent to Luzon.
But there is a right and appropriate plan, that is, the Marines board the merchant ship and directly escort.
Gan Hui was a little bit sad, the army sent out was too small, and they gave you two million taels of silver.
But the maritime merchants are actually very satisfied, this is the first time that there is an official fleet to support everyone!
The key is that there are many official warships, and some maritime merchants have realized that if the Southeast Fleet attacks Luzon, I am afraid that Spain will not be able to keep Luzon!
Even if it can’t be sent out now, there will be sooner or later, it’s okay!
……
There will be sea merchants who will send their children to the Southeast Mansion to join the army and politics.
Gan Hui said first: "First, you can join the exam after passing the exam. The regulations of the Southeast Government are mandatory for every entry; the second is to be loyal to the Southeast Government than the clan. The so-called'country' means that the country is first and the family is behind. , I can’t say it very clearly, everyone understands it!"
"In this Southeast Mansion, all of us have sworn an oath in front of Mazu to be loyal to Governor Yan. The power and strength in hand is only for Governor Yan!"
"You have to think carefully!"
The maritime merchants agreed with all their tongues. Does anyone have a different mindset? Of course there is, but they will find that the Southeast Fleet is powerful. It is a melting pot. The brainwashing and system inside will allow their children to be with them soon. The elders are out of place.
……
When it was time for the meal, Gan Hui invited the marine merchants to eat. He said, "You have eaten everything. Now we are asking you to eat an ordinary meal, and you will be impressed!"
The food is placed, it is the Southeastern Navy Food:
hard biscuits, pork jerky, beef jerky, venison jerky, jam, pickles, dried fruits, milk sugar, condensed milk, fried eggs, rum and tea, etc., a dazzling array of dishes for everyone: "Please!"
Sea merchants eat it and think it’s pretty good!
They eat very well at home, but when sailing, they are really not as good as the current meal.
The biscuits are very strong, there are a lot of jerky, and all kinds of non-staple foods are good.
"This is the daily food for all the officers and soldiers on our warship. The venison is exclusive to the officers, and everyone else has a share!" Gan Hui told them.
Now the marine merchants are making a sensation!
You must know that eating meat for meals is something that landlords and wealthy people do not necessarily enjoy in the mainland. Small landlords and rich peasants can’t do it, and the Southeast Army actually has a share. It’s no wonder that the Southeast Army is so strong. !
A sea merchant said in surprise: "Doesn't you need a lot of money?"
"Of course!" Gan Hui said: "Our warlord has three willingness, one is willing to give the officers and soldiers good treatment, one is willing to eat well for the officers and soldiers, and the other is willing to spend money for training!"
He took the opportunity to talk about the situation of the Southeast Fleet, which attracted the applause of maritime merchants, and he was more confident in him!
A sea merchant said: "This is to be willing to pay, there will be a return, the warlord is wise! It seems that our investment will not be wasted!"
Mr. Zhang, of the four great merchants, said sharply: "He is the Son of Destiny!"
Everyone nodded with sentiment~www.wuxiaspot.com~ He is still so young, as long as he keeps on doing this, it is really possible to achieve a big cause.
After eating this meal, there was a marine merchant who found Yan Qingquan and said that he wanted to act as an agent for the navy food of the Southeast Mansion, not letting go of all opportunities to make money.
……
In the afternoon, the meeting continued. Yan Changwu hired four marine merchants and six other marine merchants as "consultants" of the Southeast Government. What made everyone nod again is that the other six marine merchants are mainly middle-class and small-capital. It seems that he does not He listens and believes, but has a wide range of sources of information. This is an important aspect of becoming a wise leader.
He welcomes your suggestions and asks the gentlemen to gather them and send them to the Kaohsiung Overseer. Or, he has given an email address so that relevant suggestions can be delivered directly.
"Every year, if it wasn't for me, or the high-ranking officials of the Southeast Prefecture, I would meet with you once to listen to your opinions and suggestions. At the same time, you can also ask Yan Qingquan (local manager) to summarize the news and report it to Kaohsiung!"
……
People stayed on Wailingding Island for one night. They lived in tents and the conditions were rudimentary. However, the marine merchants were very happy. Many people talked excitedly about this warlord Yan in the tent at night, and they were full of hope for him. Early in the morning, Gan Hui said goodbye to them on behalf of Yan Changwu, and they returned happily!
After being bullied for so long, maybe it’s because of God’s pity, um, that’s a gift from Mazu!
The blessings of the Mazu temples along the coast of Guangdong Province were surprised to find that the incense in the temple suddenly flourished, and the rewards were increasing.
Not only does Mazu believe in, Mr. Zhang once said: "He is the son of destiny", this statement is widely circulated in Guangdong Province, since then, Yan Changwu's reputation has been greatly enhanced!
