Accompanying Xu Yi from house to house to pay off the debt, Qin Hao set off for Fucheng on the third day.

At Yinshi, Xu Yi got up to make breakfast and dry food. When he was away from home, it was not so easy to eat some hot food. It would take six or seven hours to drive a carriage to Fucheng, and he needed to prepare three meals.

Xu Yi posted a dozen corn tortillas for Qin Hao to make breakfast. Thinly sliced ​​potato shreds, green pepper shreds, and pork shreds were fried together in oil, then served in a large bowl, rolled with corn tortillas, fragrant The potato shredded meat burritos are ready.

Qin Hao ate six of them in one go, and he enjoyed Xu Yi's thick millet porridge.

The dry food on the road was fried steamed bun slices, and it took thirty to forty slices to stop. Last night, I made meat sauce and fish sauce in advance, and each filled a large jar.

Qin Hao put the food, water and backpack into the carriage. Before dawn, Xu Yi insisted on sending Qin Hao to the entrance of the village, so Qin Hao took the rein with one hand and Xu Yi's hand with the other, and the two slowly moved towards each other. Go to the entrance of the village.

When we arrived at the entrance of the village, the morning wind was still a bit chilly, Qin Hao hugged Xu Yi into his arms with one hand, and lightly touched his forehead.

"Let's go, wait for me to come back."

Xu Yi hugged Qin Hao's thin and strong waist tightly with both hands, and took a deep breath, as if wanting to remember Qin Hao's smell, tears flowed into Qin Hao's neck.

"Be careful outside, you must come back after seven days, I will wait for you."

Qin Haofei got on the carriage and drove forward at a high speed. He was afraid that he would not be able to help turning his head back. It has been less than two months since he came to Xujia Village, but this place has become his second home. , two very important family members.

Xu Yi stood at the entrance of the village until the carriage turned into a small black spot and disappeared at the end of the gray road.

After studying the map in advance, Qin Hao arrived at the Fucheng without incident. The gate of the Fucheng is more grand than the county town. The gate tower is ten meters high, and there are four guards with swords on each side. Passers-by need ID documents to enter the city.

It was already dark, but fortunately, he entered the city before the city gate was closed, so Qin Hao found a big inn with bright lights and planned to stay first before making a detailed visit.

Xiao Er took the carriage away, Qin Hao took the backpack, asked for a guest room, and checked in hastily.With the tea on the table, he casually ate some dry food to fill his stomach. After that, Qin Hao asked for a bucket of hot water, took a careless shower, lay down and fell asleep.

The next day, Qin Hao got up early, washed up, and went out refreshed. First, he found a clean breakfast shop and got a bowl of hot soybean milk and four fried dough sticks.

The soy milk was mellow, and the deep-fried dough sticks were fluffy and crispy. Qin Hao ate slowly while watching the pedestrians coming and going on the street with great interest.

After breakfast, Qin Hao went to the pier. The pier was smaller than he imagined. There were [-] or [-] boats parked by the side, including five or six grand three-story ships. The boats in the shed sell seafood along the coast.

I heard that the new emperor attaches great importance to Fucheng Port, which is also the only seaside port in Yan Kingdom.

Yan Country has a vast land area, and more than half of the national border is facing the sea, so Qin Hao was a little surprised to see such a crude pier. If there were ports along the coastline, how many times would the transportation efficiency be improved.

When looking at the map, Qin Hao found that Xujia Village is actually very close to the sea. After crossing several mountains behind Qin Hao's house, the sea can be reached in a straight line of more than ten miles.

If you can come to Fucheng by boat, you will arrive in one or two hours, which is much more efficient than riding a horse now.

Qin Hao walked carefully along the port, and saw several blond foreigners.

Like the imaginary board, they were talking in English, and someone on the other boat was also heard speaking Japanese.

Qin Hao felt that this time travel was too miraculous, and had no connection with the previous world, but it was the same in many ways.

Qin Hao walked over and chatted with the foreigner. They were very surprised and asked him if he was an interpreter from the Imperial Trade Department, and praised his standard language.

Qin Hao asked them what goods they brought and what they were willing to take away. Not surprisingly, foreigners still like porcelain, silk, tea and the like.

Knowing about the situation, Qin Hao didn't have the mood to go shopping anymore, but saw that the seafood sold on the fishing boat was of good quality and cheap, so he bought a few bunches of seaweed, a few boxes of shrimp, crab and sea fish, and put them in the carriage. Space, take it back for them to try something new.

Qin Hao thought again: To get rich, you really have to build roads first. This road includes land, water, and all roads. Otherwise, such good seafood has never been seen in the county.

I plan to go to the teahouse to sit and listen to books. The teahouse is a distribution center for all kinds of news. In the era of extremely underdeveloped transportation, you can get newer news in the teahouse.

I found a teahouse with a quiet decoration, and beckoned Xiao Er to order a pot of clear tea, a few plates of dried fruits, and small snacks.

Qin Hao was sitting on the second floor, looking down at the stage, two elder brothers were playing the pipa, the quiet tune was refreshing, and the guests who came in would unconsciously lower their voices.

Qin Hao was eating melon seeds while waiting for the storyteller to come on stage.

Each table has a handwritten paper card, one side is the menu, the other side is the program list, one hour for storytelling, and half an hour for playing musical instruments.According to the time, it's time for Mr. Storyteller to take the stage.

Sure enough, a middle-aged man dressed as a scholar came to the stage, slapped the gavel, and spoke about Xinhuang's development and trade department in Fucheng.

Although the main purpose of the storyteller is to create a glorious image of the new emperor who is brave, brave and decisive, after listening to it, Qin Hao still understands the reason why the scale of the dock is smaller than imagined.

The new emperor sent an imperial brother to Fucheng two years ago to plan overseas trade matters. Unexpectedly, this imperial brother had a rebellious heart. Within two years, not only did he not open the port of Fucheng, but he also joined forces with pirates to rob Yanguo for overseas trade. A large amount of gold and silver flowed into the pocket of the emperor's brother.

When the incident happened, the emperor's brother fled overseas by boat, but was captured by the emperor's confidant, General Shan, and executed at the pier, with his head hung on the mast for seven days.

After that, General Shan personally took charge of the Fucheng Trade Department. During this period of time, he has been recruiting soldiers and talents, hoping that more people with lofty ideals can discuss major issues together.

There was a small recruitment advertisement attached to the teahouse, Qin Hao took one, and the reward was very generous, 10 taels of silver per month, and additional subsidies ranging from tens to hundreds of taels for going out to sea with the boat.

Qin Hao was moved by the reward, and he planned to go and see it tomorrow.

Now that the business is settled, Qin Hao thought about some private matters, and inquired about the location of the largest jewelry building in Fucheng with someone, and followed to find it.

He is going to marry Xu Yi, and wants to make him a pearl ring with the best pearls in space.

After choosing two couples' silver rings, the master inlaid a pink pearl on Xu Yi's ring.

After finishing the work, the master carefully put the two rings in the jewelry box, looked at them fondly, and was reluctant to hand them back to Qin Hao.

"Young man, where did you find this pink pearl? I have been making jewelry for 30 years, and this is the first time I have seen pearls with such a beautiful skin. If you still have them, I would like to pay 1000 taels for one."

"Master, this pearl is a family heirloom of my family. It was passed on to my son-in-law. It cannot be sold, and there is no other one. This is the only one."

Qin Hao snatched the jewelry box and closed the lid. The gold and pearls in the space would feel guilty if he used them by himself, so how could he sell them.

The master looked at Qin Hao's back, although he was reluctant, he was more pleasantly surprised. Even if he couldn't own such a beautiful pearl, it was a rare thing to have a chance to see it.

Another day, Qin Hao went to the trade department to try his luck.

As soon as he arrived at the trade department, Qin Hao was startled by the crowded scene in front of him.

There were a lot of people waiting, so Qin Hao went up to get a number, and was told that the interview time was scheduled until the end of tomorrow, and he could go to the inner hall for a written test today.

Qin Hao heard the news and went to the inner hall. The tables and chairs were neatly arranged in the huge hall. According to his visual inspection, at least thirty people were doing the quiz, one person at a table. In order to prevent cheating, the adjacent tables were far apart.

Qin Hao took the test paper, there were two in total, one was a language question, the written test taker could choose one of European (English), Langyu (Japanese), and Xiding (Spanish) to write a small essay on a proposition, Qin Hao The same content was written three times in different languages.

One is an essay question. Qin Hao wrote a large article on some thoughts on Yan Guo’s overseas navigation from the current problems, advantages and disadvantages to future strategies. He has lived in modern society for more than 20 years and has his own information plug-in.

After the two papers were handed in, Qin Hao felt pretty good about himself, and went back to the inn without any burden.

When the little official who checked the papers saw the two papers, he was very shocked, and hurriedly sent someone to send them to General Shan to have a look.

General Shan recruited his deputy, Wang Li, and asked him to meet this man named Qin Hao tomorrow, and arranged for his cronies to go to the county seat to investigate Qin Hao's background.

Qin Hao didn't know anything about all this, he just lay on the bed in the inn with nothing to do, thinking of Xujia Village and Xu Yi.

At the right time, Qin Hao arrived at the Department of Trade a quarter of an hour before the interview. As soon as he showed his number to the clerk, he was immediately ushered into the inner hall enthusiastically.

After walking behind the little official for about 5 minutes, I saw the little official in front saluting respectfully at the door of a room.

"Lord Wang, Qin Hao has arrived."

"Please Qin Hao come in." A clear baritone voice came from inside, and the little official gestured to Qin Hao to come in, signaling him to go in quickly.

Qin Hao stepped into the room quickly, facing a super big desk, a young man in official uniform was sitting behind the desk.

There are a lot of books messily placed on the desk, and the young man is flipping through a few pages in his hand.

Hearing Qin Hao enter the door, he raised his head and looked at Qin Hao with warm and easy-going eyes.

"Are you Qin Hao who took the test in three languages?"

"It's right here." Qin Hao clasped his fists at the young man.

The young man looked at Qin Hao with great interest: "Then you are pretty good, you can speak three languages, and the most qualified translator in the trade department only knows two."

The man favored by the great god of time travel always has some golden fingers, Qin Hao replied shamelessly in his heart.

"I read your article, which is very interesting. You said that the biggest problem now is not money, but that there is no professional and disciplined team that can continue to earn money. What do you think is a professional team?"

Qin Hao grew up in martial arts in elementary school, and his master was a soldier of the special forces. Every winter and summer vacation, he and Er Ting would be sent to closed military training. Qin Hao firmly believed in the military creed that unity is strength and collective honor is above all else.

As a matter of fact, Chinese soldiers really lived up to the expectations of the people of the country. They always appeared on the most dangerous front line, were brave enough to sacrifice, dare to win battles, and were able to win battles.

Yan Country's overseas trade has just started, and the overseas situation is unclear. What is needed is such a militarized and professional team that can fight and fight.

"Going to sea must be an elite team with a clear division of labor. Someone needs to be responsible for supply, someone is responsible for negotiating transactions, someone is responsible for security, someone is responsible for translation, someone is responsible for warehousing and bookkeeping, and someone is responsible for walrus logistics. Everyone works together. Responsible for the final transaction profit."

"Thus, these people need to have professional skills. People who are engaged in work today are all based on their own experience to gain experience. They each rely on their own abilities. It may be possible to work alone, but they may not be able to do a good job when put together as a whole."
