Daming One Piece

Chapter 92 Going to Nanyang (first update, please recommend, please collect)
A little fatter?
It is nothing more than reclaiming more land or increasing the corresponding production.

Yield.

Thinking of the yield, Shi Yiwen thought of the sweet potatoes and potatoes in the space supermarket, those are high-yielding crops.There are even all kinds of whole grains.

If they are introduced here, their output must be astonishing, but even if it is astonishing, what's the point?
The greater the interest, the more stubborn the diehards will be!

To defeat the diehards is very simple, either physically destroy them, or disintegrate their interests, how to disintegrate?
Looking towards the shipyard in the distance, even from here, you can see the towering masts over there, and then Shi Yiwen thought for a while and said.

"Ruyu, when the new ship is built, I plan to go to Hoi An."

"To Hoi An?"

Yan Ruyu said in surprise.

"Yes, I went to Hoi An to sell goods, and secondly, to buy food,"

"Buy food?"

Yan Ruyu shook her head and said.

"Brother Shi, there is no need to buy food. The food will be collected in a few days. We should not have to worry about food anymore."

"Going to buy food is not the reason."

Shi Yiwen looked at Ruyu and said.

"I have talked with Guo Huaiyi and the others in the past few days. The nearest to us and the cheapest grain price is Hoi An. A stone of rice is less than five yuan, and Zhangzhou costs two taels of silver. I calculated it. New The boat can hold almost 10,000 stones of goods, and this ship of grain can earn tens of thousands of taels of silver. If it goes back and forth, it will take half a month at most. If it is not complete, it is [-]+ silver."

Food prices in Liaodong are expensive!
What is the most expensive in Liaodong right now?
That is food!

In fact, not only is the price of grain in Liaodong expensive, but now there is no cheap food anywhere in Ming Dynasty. In a dozen years or so, even Jiangnan will be full of famine, and in some places, people will eat each other.The food crisis brought about by the Little Ice Age didn’t just happen in the north, it also affected Nanjing, it’s just a matter of severity.

"Is the food in Liaodong really that expensive?"

Yan Ruyu said in surprise.

"There are still times when it is more expensive, as long as we open up this business route, the food business alone will benefit us endlessly."

How expensive is food when it is the most expensive?

In the 13th year of Chongzhen in Henan, the price of rice was 54 taels, in the 14th year of Chongzhen in Shandong, the price of rice was 154 taels... At that time, silver was worthless, and the one that was worth it was life!
It's more than endless!

Shi Yiwen has already planned everything in his heart, from transporting rice from Southeast Asia to selling in the north to earn huge profits, and buying cotton cloth and raw silk in Shanghai on the way.On the return journey, they will take the refugees back to Beigang, reclaim wasteland and farm in Beigang, and then sell goods such as cotton cloth and raw silk porcelain to Nanyang.In this way, the profit margin is small, what is more important?
It's people!

A steady stream of immigrants will arrive at Beigang one by one, and then cultivate around Beigang. Compared with Fujian, there are more refugees in the north, and their situation is even more miserable. After they arrive here, they can cultivate here. There is a lot of land, and Beigang will definitely become more and more prosperous due to the influx of refugees. After all, talents are the foundation of everything.

With people, not only can a large amount of land be reclaimed, but also various commodities including cotton cloth can be produced, more large ships can be built, more sailors can be owned, and more refugees can be transported from the north to Beigang.

It's not just Beigang. Its own merchant ships will also transport them to Southeast Asia, establish trading posts along the coast of Southeast Asia, reclaim land and build cities around the trading post, and eventually, each immigration point will connect the entire Southeast Asian coast together. At that time, a completely different world will appear in front of the world.

Now, the food crisis in Ming Dynasty and the severe drought in the future are an opportunity for Shi Yiwen!An opportunity to change the world!

Of course, it will take many years to achieve all this, and there are still many things to do. A journey of a thousand miles begins with a single step, and any business must start with the first step!

And the first step right now is to get out of this business route!
Half a month later, when the village had just finished farming, the boat was built. This is a 50-meter-long two-masted schooner. The reason why it can be built so quickly is entirely due to the hydraulic sawmill and wood lathe. Waiting for the use of machines, in fact, the speed of shipbuilding in this era is very fast, just like the 1613-ton Western-style Galenic ship built by Japan in 500. It took only 45 days. The ship even crossed the Pacific Ocean and sailed to Mexico. .Driven by the Japanese, assisted by Spanish sailors.In fact, when the ship was built, it was also under the guidance of Spanish sailors.

Shi Yiwen only brought two ships for this long voyage, besides the "Black Pearl", this is the "Black Wind". Why "Black" is used, because the ship is black.

Before the trip, Shi Yiwen asked to do one thing, which was to boil all the fresh water carried on the boat, then pour it into a jar and seal it with cement. Although it would not take long to go to Hoi An, just in case, it was better to drink it early. Well prepared, even if there is enough water and food in the space, so what?
This morning, the two boats sailed out of Beigang Creek. In fact, they were not the only boats out to sea, but also Zheng Yiguan's boat.

Staring at the two black ships, Zheng Yiguan had a complicated expression.

"Six masters, I heard that Mr. Shi and Master Guo are going to Hoi An."

"Hoi An, you can't sell goods in Hoi An."

Zheng Yiguan sneered.

"There are Clippers who don't go to Manila, but go to Hoi An. That place has long since let businessmen from Guangdong run away."

Zheng Yiguan has long been familiar with the situation in Hoi An, and under normal circumstances, he would not go to that kind of place.

"That's right, Six Masters, what kind of business can there be in that place? Whether it's cotton cloth or porcelain, to put it bluntly, it's all Cantonese business. It's polite for them to barge in so recklessly, not to be blown out. Those Cantonese businessmen may not be able to tolerate them in their eyes!"

Geographically, even maritime merchants in this era will be divided into various business gangs because of their hometown. These merchant gangs monopolize the business of certain ports, making it difficult for outsiders to get involved. This is why Zheng Yiguan and the others love Western The reason for dealing with people-people don't ask where you are from, as long as you can make money.

While they were talking, the two black ships, one in front of the other, sailed towards the deep sea with full sails. The scene in front of him made Zheng Yiguan stunned for a long time before he spoke.

"Why did they wade into the Black Water Ocean all at once? Isn't he afraid of being blown away by the wind?"
