You said something, and I said something, expressing the extreme dissatisfaction in my heart.And some people said that they don't want to go to sea when they are old, they just want to stay at home with their family, so let's work harder, and don't want to worry their family anymore.

After Zhu Qing and Lou Fengming heard it, they also roughly knew that some people were really hurt by the actions of the Pang family as Yuer expected, so they took a negative approach and didn't want to go to sea again.

As for some people who completely gave up the idea of ​​going to sea, Zhu Qing silently remembered them in his heart.He greeted the person who asked for a drink just now, dragged him to another side room, and after beckoning him to sit down, he looked at him seriously and asked: "Those boatmen really listen to you, don't they?"

When the boatman heard this, he looked at him in surprise and asked vigilantly, "Why are you asking this?"

They all knew the purpose of Zhu Qing inviting them to come here today, but it was rare for someone to value the boatman so much, so they came to discuss it.Anyway, it is up to them to decide whether to agree or not.

"If... I mean, I'll give you a guarantee, whether it's your family or you... this, you can take a serious look at it, it may be a solution for you!" said, Just hand him the contract they negotiated and let him take a serious look.

The boatman's face was full of doubts, and he reached out to take the contract he handed to him, looked left, meowed right, and finally said blankly: "I can't read!"

Seeing that he was looking at it so seriously, Zhu Qing thought he could read, so he handed him the contract. Unexpectedly, he didn't know a word, so he twitched the corners of his mouth and said very depressedly: "This is the condition of our promise. , as long as you agree to go to the ocean, then your monthly silver will be delivered to your relatives on time. As long as you appoint someone to hand it over, no one can take your monthly silver... As for what you are worried about, say To put it bluntly, if there is any accident on the merchant ship, I will give your relatives a family home, at least 1000 taels, and if you are injured, you will be given comfort money, so that you can live without worry!"

The boatman originally had an expression of indifference, but after hearing Zhu Qing's words, his face gradually changed, and the way he looked at Zhu Qing was also different. "Are you kidding me!?" How could such a good thing happen to their boatman?They are the most insecure, no one cares about their life and death, let alone compensation.

"If you don't believe it, you can take this contract and ask the person you believe to see if it says so!" Zhu Qing knew that if it was him, he wouldn't believe it, so he said The general excitement is justifiable.

The boatman tremblingly accepted the contract he handed him, and tremblingly said: "Don't lie to me, I know people who can read, if you lie to me, you will lose face!" There was a hint of guilt on his face, but he found that he couldn't see anything, so he could only remind him, lest he would fall out and embarrass everyone.

"Well, you can ask whoever you want to see it, but there is one condition, that is, don't be known by others. I'm afraid that if too many people know about it, the crew members on other merchant ships will have opinions, so please keep it secret first, okay? ?” He saw that this boatman was relatively stable and had certain abilities among heavy boatmen, so he asked him to come in.

"As long as what you said is true, I will keep it secret, and I can also discuss with those old shipbuilders to ensure that they will not leak any information!"

Seeing that Zhu Qing entrusted him with such an important matter, the boatman solemnly promised him.

"I believe you, you are an old boatman, you must know who is needed on a new boat, so I entrust this matter to you!" Zhu Qing looked at him solemnly and said, his tone full of trust.

"Okay, I'll give you an answer in three days!" The man hid the contract in his arms before walking out with Zhu Qing.

This matter ended without a sound.Those people didn't know what happened. They just knew that everyone was drunk afterwards, and they didn't know what they were eating this time. Anyway, happy drinking and eating are more important than anything else.

Three days later, the old boatman found the man in Deyuelou and asked him to send a message to Zhu Qing, asking him to come to Deyuelou to discuss important matters!

After Zhu Qing got the news, he discussed with Lou Fengming, and went to Deyuelou with the contract he had prepared long ago, while Yu'er was waiting for the good news at home.

"Boss Zhu," the leading boatman asked excitedly as soon as he saw him, "Do you still count on what you told me?" These days, they all gathered together to discuss for a long time, and they also talked with their family members about the matter. Some people talked about it, and they all said that it is so good, it is rare to meet such a good person, and they should help no matter what.

"Affirmative!" Zhu Qing gave him a definite answer, and then asked curiously, "How many of you are there?"

The man frowned, as if he was counting the number of people in his heart, and after a while he said: "There are about twenty of us in total, and some people said that they don't want to. The children in the family are small, and the elderly also need to be taken care of, so I didn't go with them." They said it!"

After Zhu Qing and Lou Fengming heard it, they calculated in their minds that there was still a difference of a dozen or so between twenty and forty, and more boatmen should be prepared on board to avoid trouble if someone fell ill, so people had to recruit more. .

"Although there are only more than 20, it is better than the previous ones that no one can find!" Chen Yu looked at the contract with his fingerprints on it, and said with a smile: "I am also very courageous. If other merchant ships find out, I don't know what's going to happen!"

"What can happen, why didn't you come here too much!" Lou Fengming said angrily, "You feel bold now, but what happened before? Why didn't you think of it?"

"Yu'er didn't mean that she was brave enough to write this contract, but she felt that it was a bit exaggerated for her to do so when the family was in short supply of money," Zhu Qing explained with a smile.

"Yeah, money, we have to prepare some money anyway, at least when we set sail, we should give some money to the boatman's family so that they won't worry about it!" Lou Fengming said after thinking for a while, rubbing his chin.

"There's no rush for this, let's get people together first!" Chen Yu said it easily, but he was actually very entangled in his heart, wondering why he was getting poorer and poorer.

Everyone has a lot of money, but she, if she doesn't move, she won't move, and every move costs tens of thousands of taels of silver, who can bear it! ?Alas, if Pang Yuntian could come back, she wouldn't have to be so nervous.

While collecting money, Chen Yu asked Zhu Qing and Lou Fengming to find someone. If it didn't work out, he would buy some young and strong cooks who could cook, so that they could help when the boat was busy.

Deyuelou's business is good. Before selling Sinan's silver, the fish didn't move, so they pooled it together, at least there were about 5000 taels.
