The Fourth Lingshi Financial Crisis

Chapter 172 The world is full of knowledge

After listening to Team Leader Qin's introduction, Shen Xiaotao felt suddenly enlightened about many things that he didn't understand before:

He was still very strange at first, could it be that the captain of the sea cliff department has no good people?But now it seems that President Su never planned to choose a good person to be the captain, he only needs obedient people, the kind of good people who dare to speak out, have long been thrown into the sea to feed monsters!

As the saying goes, insight into world affairs is knowledge, and understanding of human feelings is writing.

Group leader Qin, an old seaman with a low level of education, has risen to the philosophical level just by relying on his experience as a seaman for more than half his life, and has deep insights into certain issues. No wonder Manager He often advises himself that the management of the chamber of commerce is the most taboo The best thing is behind closed doors!

Seeing that Shen Xiaotao was stunned by his explanation, Team Leader Qin said with a smile: "This scares you? Actually, this is not the most outrageous thing about our Yuxiang ship!"

Shen Xiaotao came back to his senses, and said with a surprised expression: "Isn't this the most outrageous thing?"

"When I was in charge of cleaning the captain's room last time, I discovered a big secret!" After arousing Shen Xiaotao's interest, Team Leader Qin pointed to the captain's room not far away with his chin, and said with a smile: "Our captain My lord, in fact, I have never read the "Handbook of Integrity Education for Captains of the Sea Cliff Chamber of Commerce" written by President Su. That brand new "Handbook of Integrity Education" is placed on the bookshelf in such a majestic way, and even the once wrapped on the surface None of the moisture-proof packaging has been opened."

Having never read a book written by Su Yuanfeng at all, Shen Xiaotao felt sincere respect for the captain of the Yuxiang, who had never said a few words, for being able to write such an emotional after-reading impression.

However, neither Shen Xiaotao nor Team Leader Qin knew that this "Handbook of Integrity Education" was actually not written by Su Yuanfeng himself, but that he found a few mortal paper gunners to randomly extract it.After all, Master Cultivator is very busy with time, how can he have time to write such superficial articles by himself!
After finally recovering from the shock, Shen Xiaotao finally remembered his original question, so he brought the topic back on track again: "Team Leader Qin, the captain of our Yuxiang, What exactly is the black money method?"

The old team leader also had a good impression of this modest and inquiring young man. Seeing that there was no one around, he simply opened up the conversation: "The captain's handwriting is much bigger than us little shrimps. What this guy is best at is, It’s the so-called smuggling!”

Shen Xiaotao showed an expression of interest very cooperatively: "What is soliciting private goods?"

Team Leader Qin said with a mysterious smile: "How much cargo our Yuxiang can hold is actually very flexible. Some irregularly shaped cargo occupies a large area, but the weight is not heavy. The cargo is so easy, this gives the captain the opportunity to do smuggling business. In fact, our captain is quite restrained. It is said that some captains who run out of the island route, after two or three trips, they will suddenly become the richest people in Sea Cliff City, and even directly withdraw money. Fleeing to an outlying island."

"Compared to other smuggling routes, what's special about this outlying island route? Why is it so profitable?"

Team Leader Qin pointed to the crossbow beside the two of them and said, "The arms trade on the outlying islands is a real huge profit! In order to prevent the military balance of the outlying islands from being disrupted, the Haiya Chamber of Commerce strictly limits the export of arms to the outlying islands. It is precisely because With quantity control, the profit of smuggling prohibited ordnance is unimaginably high. It can even be said to be the business with the highest profit margin in the cultivation world of Kyushu. Anyway, it must be much higher than our captain’s smuggling of ore! Guess why the previous captains of the Yufeng ship Unable to die well? This is no coincidence!"

Team leader Qin also talked about the top, and he pointed to the crew members working on the deck and introduced them one by one: "Don't talk about the captain of the Yufeng, just talk about the first mate, the second mate, the third mate, and the captain of our ship Yuxiang. Navigators, flag bearers, how to make money and how much money should be made by people in each position, these are all established rules! If there is a big disturbance caused by a stunned young man, and he even goes to the captain to complain, Then don't blame the wind and waves on the sea for accidentally photographing you in the sea!"

Shen Xiaotao is not a fool, of course he understands what Team Leader Qin means: The most terrifying thing in the Eastern Ocean is not the storm at all, but the unpredictable people's hearts!

Before going out to sea this time, the steward He Mingyuan specially instructed him to do "three more and one less"——

Listen more, see more, think more, mind your own business less!
Now it seems that the corruption at the grassroots level of the Haiya Chamber of Commerce may have been expected by Manager He.

Shen Xiaotao doesn't think he is a business genius.

Although he intends to inquire about the inside story of the Yuxiang ship, he can see the tricks in just a few days.

Team leader Qin also felt that Shen Xiaotao was a talent to be made, so he continued to educate: "You volunteers are all from poor families, so why not us old seamen? In the eyes of the master cultivator, we mortals just walk Merit, we don’t treat us as human beings at all. Let’s grab some wool from the Haiya Chamber of Commerce, which can be regarded as doing justice for the heavens!”

After finishing speaking, he also smiled and patted Shen Xiaotao's pocket containing Lingshi coins to show his encouragement to the young people.

Shen Xiaotao said yes on the surface, but in his heart he was somewhat disapproving:
That's because you haven't met a boss with a conscience!

Miss Li Qingning, Guanshi He, and Consultant Yang, their consciences are very good!

Although he didn't think so, Shen Xiaotao still followed the other party's words and said: "Team Leader Qin, you are very lucky to find a way to make a fortune as a seafarer. I have been selling newspapers in Haiya City for three or four years. I only earn money by getting up early and working late every day." A few cents of Lingshi coins, if I had known how easy it is to make a fortune as a sailor, I would have gone to sea with you a few years ago!"

Team Leader Qin smiled and waved his hands and said: "You volunteers are also very lucky! Going to fight on outlying islands for the Haiya Chamber of Commerce is a rare job. I heard that each of your volunteers can get 60 yuan Lingshi coins are paid, and half of the cash will be given at the signing ceremony, and there are hundreds of spirit stone coins for death benefits, this remuneration is almost as good as that of ordinary cultivators!"

When Shen Xiaotao heard the words, he couldn't help revealing a trace of bitterness: "Team leader, we're earning our lives!"

Team leader Qin snorted coldly and said, "You don't know how to be blessed if you are born in a blessing! Do you know how many people have no chance if they want to work hard?"

Team Leader Qin's words made it impossible for Shen Xiaotao to refute.

It is precisely because the vast majority of people want to work hard and have no chance, the Haiya Volunteer Army signed up so enthusiastically this time. If he hadn't exercised a good physique by selling newspapers in the streets, he might not be able to be accepted by the Haiya Chamber of Commerce. choose!

In the Kyushu realm of comprehension, the qualification to work hard depends on robbing!

Seeing that Shen Xiaotao was silent, Team Leader Qin sighed deeply and said, "Besides, we sailors are not in the business of working hard? Sailing in the four oceans of Kyushu, plague, disease, and acclimatization are all very common problems. Not to mention that most fleets don’t have a team leader at all. Even if there is a team leader, ordinary crew members don’t have the money to ask the master to treat them, so they can only fight with their bodies. In order to avoid getting sick, we can only drink more , but wine is food, and even the worst wine is not cheap for sailors at all!"

As he spoke, Team Leader Qin picked up a wine jug from his waist and took a sip into his mouth.
