The big man has a living father

Chapter 214 (Large Chapter) Hometown of Confucius and Mencius
Qiancheng County is not an ordinary county.

At the beginning of last year, it was actually decided that this place would be used as the navy's northern base and also as the site for a shipyard.

After Erkuan was selected as the head of the ship base, the great development of Qiancheng County began.

City wall?

No need for that. This port is full of cannons and will be home to the Imperial Guards and the Naval Musketeers. What need is there for a city wall?

The cement factory built last year began to produce results, and Qiancheng recruited almost all the workers in Qi County to build various roads.

The planning of Qiancheng County was very large from the beginning, and various facilities were built.

The steel mill built nearby also began to produce in large quantities.

At the same time, coal is transported to Qiancheng County along the river every day.

Hundreds of thousands of people are frantically building around Qiancheng County.

A huge port rose from the ground.

Next to it is a huge warehouse area, transshipment area, and various trade and transportation facilities.

These facilities are more than thirty times larger than the original Qiancheng County.

With so many people gathered here, Qiancheng County began to develop rapidly. Before Qiancheng County started building its first ship, civil construction had already been completed.

At this time, Qiancheng County was much larger than the capital of Jiaodong State in Lu State.

At present, Qiancheng County has a registered population of 140,000, but the total number of workers receiving wages in Qiancheng County has long remained above 350,000.

This is not common in the densely populated Yellow River Basin.

In fact, the current population of Qiancheng is far more than this.

Because since half a year ago, there have been a large number of soldiers, seamen, and people from the transportation industry here, and people in these industries are very tired. They have a characteristic: they make a lot of money and are generous with their money.

Therefore, the business in Qiancheng County is also developing rapidly.

Even from such a faraway place as Youbeiping, people came here.

Catering, consumption, entertainment, all kinds of businesses are very developed.

This also means that with Qiancheng as a base, wealthy businessmen within a radius of 500 kilometers on the sea and 100 kilometers on the road all have businesses and connections here.

Within 400 kilometers on land, a large number of nobles and wealthy businessmen also have businesses in Qiancheng.

Qiancheng enjoyed the convenience of sea transportation, and the Han Dynasty was conducting commodity trade with the Nanyue Kingdom and other Hundred Yue countries through Qiancheng and Kuaiji County, so it developed very quickly.

This Qiancheng has now reached the prosperity of Wancheng.

Huo Hai sat in the car, looking thoughtfully at the brothels, bars and butcher shops all over the street.

Ban? This cannot be banned. How can we ban this in such a large port where many industries are concentrated?

Indulgence? No way!

Are infectious diseases kidding you?

Let’s establish a system.

Soon, Huo Hai arrived at the largest mansion in Qiancheng.

Here, a wealthy businessman came and started building a year in advance.

The reason for construction is on the one hand investment, and on the other hand it is useful.

Not to mention Huo Hai’s house, right next door is Liu Che’s palace.

Even though the construction of the new palace on Bashang was slow, it has been under construction for more than a year and it looks like it will take several more years to be completed.

But here, the palace was completed in just half a year.

After all, the construction on Bashang was slow because they were waiting for the urban planning, while the construction on Qiancheng was fast because it was completed before other facilities were started.

In the future, when Liu Che goes on tour, he will definitely come here.

Starting from the year before last, Liu Che gradually developed an interest in touring. Although there was a Shanglin Garden in the past, Liu Che actually rarely went to Shanglin Garden. He went there to hunt.

There is also a story about leniency.

But starting from the year before last, Liu Che began to go on tours many times.

At the beginning, they were Shanglinyuan, Xianyang, and nearby Ling County.

After becoming addicted, Liu Che began to go further.

Just like Qin Shihuang, Liu Che also fell in love with touring.

He wanted to see what this country, which was thriving under his rule, was like.

Or maybe he felt that the things reported by his ministers were always different from what he had found when he sent out the envoys in embroidered robes, or maybe he was just interested in the scenery, or maybe he wanted to encounter an immortal.

I don’t know why, but Liu Che just fell in love with going on tours.

Therefore, after becoming rich, Liu Che did not hesitate to build palaces in various important cities.

On the one hand, it is about spending money, distributing money, and boosting the economy.

On the other hand, it is to prepare for his future tours.

Once Liu Che is sure that there is no enemy in the four seas that can match him and that the Han navy is invincible, he will definitely send thousands of chariots quickly.

This is inevitable.

After settling Princess Wei Chang, Huo Hai got into the car and took Tian Jue with him.

Tian Jue then began to tell Huo Hai about the identities and power situations of the people present today.

Simply put, Qiancheng is home to a large number of wealthy businessmen and nobles from the lower reaches of the Yellow River. These guys have made a lot of money during this great development, and their mouths are full of fat. There are multi-millionaires everywhere.

Almost everyone present today had to have tens of millions of dollars to be eligible to enter the inner venue. Except for marquises and royal family members, everyone else present had millions of dollars in their pockets.

Outside, you need at least five million to enter, otherwise you will not be qualified to be here today.

The lower level ones are those that own promising emerging companies that are bound to develop in the future.

Not all the people present were strangers, there were some I knew.

For example, Xiao Guang from the Xiao family was present.

Xiao Guang used to follow Liu Sheng, but not now.

After two years of operation, Xiao Guang successfully helped Liu Che plan the transportation routes for an entire region. He not only led the construction of the road network in Chang'an, but also replicated this system in Zhongshan Kingdom and surrounding areas.

During the war, a large amount of supplies were transported from here to the north.

Therefore, Xiao Guang's title of Marquis of Ling had been restored by Liu Che.

Although it was his useless brother who lost his title, Xiao Guang is indeed a powerful person. Among so many people in the Han Dynasty who lost their titles, he is the only one who can restore them.

Moreover, after Xiao Guang was restored to his title, he changed his name to Xiao Qing.

Celebrate the restoration of the glory of our ancestors.

In addition to Xiao Qing and his son Xiao Shoucheng, there was another person Huo Hai knew, Liu Chang, a relative of the Liu clan.

Liu Chang was the son of King Zhao Liu Pengzu.

Previously, Liu Pengzu wanted to make the child born to his uncle's concubine the Crown Prince of Zhao, but was scolded by Liu Che, so Liu Chang was made the Crown Prince.

Liu Chang's personality is not as bad as the original Liu Dan, and he is very humble.

This guy had been living in Chang'an before, and Huo Hai had met him once or twice.

Tonight will be simple. I will give Liu Chang a little face, which is considered to be giving some face to King Zhao, and then I will plan things with Xiao Qing.

As for whether Liu Chang is qualified to do things, it depends on what happens tonight.

The car soon arrived at the largest restaurant in Qiancheng County.

This largest restaurant is owned by the Huo family.

A new style of Shandong cuisine stir-fried dishes became popular in Chang'an City and quickly became popular.

At the beginning, Huo's professional managers sent people to learn the original Shandong cuisine, and then opened stores in the land of Shandong for export and domestic sales.

On the contrary, the Shandong cuisine that originally remained in Chang'an has gradually taken on the appearance of Chang'an cuisine.

Who in Qiancheng has not benefited from the times? Who doesn't know that Huo Hai is the leader of the new business reform? The Huo family is the banner.

So as soon as this store opened, it quickly became popular.

In addition, large quantities of fish began to be landed at sea, so fresh seafood became the signature dish here and was quickly combined with Shandong cuisine.

As soon as Huo Hai's car arrived, he was surrounded by a crowd of people before he even got out.

Behind the crowd, Prince Liu Chang of Zhao shouted, "What a disgrace!"

No one can take other people’s shouting seriously, but when Prince Zhao shouts, everyone has to think carefully.

Because the entire north bank of the Yellow River, any place where short-distance trade could be conducted, was within the territory of Zhao State.

If he offended Liu Chang, one third of his business in the lower reaches of the Yellow River would be lost.

Everyone stepped back.

Seeing that everyone stopped pushing forward frantically, Liu Chang spoke again: "This prince is not trying to stop you, but today Wu Hou is hosting a banquet. Since everyone has been invited, are you still afraid that you won't have a chance to talk to Wu Hou? You can't eat hot tofu in a hurry."

"Everyone is so crowded that the door can't be opened. How can Wu Hou get off the bus?"

Someone in the crowd immediately bowed and said, "Prince Zhao is right. We should also pay attention to etiquette. Our Qi and Lu regions are the hometowns of Confucius and Mencius. The person Wu Hou admired most was Confucius. We have studied Confucius' etiquette and Confucian ethics for so many years. Why are we so flustered today?"

Liu Chang seemed to remember the person who spoke and nodded.

Others began to agree.

Only then did Liu Chang step forward to the front of the car.

The car door was then opened.

Tian Jue got off the car first and then made the invitation.

Tian Jue is the military officer of the entire North Base and the governor of Qiancheng County.

In Qiancheng, there are two people whose status is equivalent to Tian Jue. One is a military officer of the shipyard and a close confidant of Liu Che who was granted the title of Guannei Hou in the Yulin Guard. The other is the commander of the imperial army stationed here.

People from the imperial army would never attend such occasions, and the military attachés from the shipyard would not participate in such events either. The shipyard only had activities for the children.

Therefore, Tian Jue is the official representative of the entire Qiancheng County.

When everyone sees Tian Jue, they treat him as if he were meeting a senior official.

But today, the official gets off the car first and then welcomes the people in the car to get off with a very humble attitude, just like a coachman or a driver.

This made the people at the scene feel Huo Hai's strength.

Huo Hai then got out of the car and patted Tian Jue on the shoulder: "I'm not an old man, there's no need to do this."

Turned to look at Liu Chang.

Liu Chang had already stepped forward: "Brother-in-law!"

Liu Chang was Princess Wei Chang's cousin, so logically he should call him Marquis Huo Hai Wu. But this guy was really trying to please people, following Crown Prince Liu Ju and calling him that to express their kinship, right?

This is indeed a problem they have to face.

In the past, everyone was a local emperor behind closed doors, and the fiefdom was equivalent to a small Chang'an.

If Liu Chang inherited the position of King of Zhao, he would only have to go a few times in his life in accordance with the imperial edict when Liu Che wanted to see him.

However, times have changed.

Now, it only takes less than a month to travel from Chang'an to Zhao State.

What about the future? Within five days.

Are you still dreaming of being a local emperor?

Liu Chang knew that he could no longer use the old tricks.

Huo Hai smiled: "More lively than when I was in Chang'an."

Liu Chang laughed: "When I was in Chang'an, I read all day and my head was groggy. Now that I am out and living on my own, my mind is clearer, but the days are not as good as those in Chang'an."

"Where's Sister?"

Huo Hai said calmly: "The princess is seasick and is recuperating in the mansion. Besides, I am hosting a banquet for all the nobles today to discuss important matters. The princess will not participate in government affairs."

What Huo Hai meant here was not that the princess could not participate, but that Princess Wei Chang was unwilling to participate in political affairs so as to avoid being bothered by these clan relatives.

At this time, Xiao Qingcai came forward with his son Xiao Shoucheng: "Wu Hou!"

Huo Hai also bowed and said, "Xiao Qing, congratulations!"

Huo Hai did not honor Xiao Qing's title, but he did not fail to mention it either. Instead, he specifically congratulated him.

Xiao Qing felt proud and didn't feel belittled, so he started laughing.

Others seemed to know how strong Huo Hai was.

The descendant of the Xiao family, one of the three great founding heroes, seemed half a generation inferior to Huo Hai.

A man like Tian Jue who is capable of handling things on his own can be said to be a high-ranking official, but he is like a subordinate in front of Huo Hai.

The future crown prince who will inherit the State of Zhao is as obedient as a younger brother in front of Huo Hai. No, a younger brother.

Huo Hai looked at Xiao Shoucheng. There was nothing special about him, and he could even see a hint of rebellion in him.

If you are born in such a family and this is the case, you might lose the marquisate that you have recovered.

Fortunately, times have changed.

Huo Hai did not say much, but turned to look at the clan members and wealthy businessmen gathered at the scene: "Everyone, please come in!"

After entering the building, Huo Hai saw that the tables in the hall were placed closer together today.

The distinction between inside and outside is clear.

So we started sitting down right away.

Everyone present knows clearly who can sit where.

There are some people who shamelessly sit in seats that are not theirs, but the people behind them also remember them. I don’t know if they can get away with it.

When Huo Hai saw the dishes on the table, he lost all interest in chatting.

"Eat first."

Tian Jue looked up after Huo Hai spoke: "Wu Hou said, everyone eat first!"

Everyone looked at it and said, "Okay, don't be in a hurry, just eat first."

This is not Huo Hai’s fault. The food in front of him is really confusing!

Do you know the Chinese lobster? In modern times, a small arm-length lobster costs six figures.

On the table in front of him, there was an arm as long as his arm! Huo Hai’s arms were not short. Huo Hai was already over 1.8 meters tall, and his arms were over 70 centimeters to nearly 80 centimeters long, which was considered long.

Huo Hai made a special comparison.

The antennae of this Chinese lobster might be as long as a normal-sized keyboard!
Although this is far inferior to the shrimp-whisker cane that Empress Dou had that Huo Hai saw in Chang'an, it is also really scary!

According to legend, there is actually no upper limit to the lifespan of lobsters and they can keep growing forever. There are many rumors about sea monsters and legend has it that there are a large number of giant marine creatures in the sea.

But when Huo Hai saw such a big lobster that exceeded the previous and modern records, he was still excited!

As for the one that Lady Dou used as a crutch, it was either a mutation or another species, or there were lobsters over two meters long in the sea?
Garlic flavor.

Huo Hai looked up: "Where's the cook?"

Soon, the cook came to the hall and was excited to see Huo Hai.

In the past, they had a very hard life. If it weren't for the Huo family, they would still be living a hard life. But now, as the head chef of the Huo's Restaurant, he is also highly respected here. Because there are many apprentices here, he has the appearance of a master.

The cook was excited: "Sir, my name is Zhan Fu."

Huo Hai nodded: "Will you be a fan?"

How can we have such delicious seafood without fans!
The cook was a little embarrassed: "Fans are..."

Huo Hai nodded. He had seen a short video bragging before, saying that fans were invented by Sun Bin.

It is said that Guiguzi taught his two disciples, one of whom invented tofu and the other invented vermicelli.

Now Huo Hai knew that it was King Huainan who invented tofu.

Vermicelli, or rice noodle, actually appeared during the Southern and Northern Dynasties, when starch could be successfully produced and extracted.

However, Huo Hai had already told the people of Chang'an the method of making starch, and now it has spread everywhere. Shandong cuisine also has the technique of thickening, which of course involves starch.

Huo Hai then told us how to become a fan.

However, Huo Hai was talking about the method of making sweet potato vermicelli. Now there are no sweet potatoes, only beans, which may not be easy to make.

But at least let them try.

"After making the vermicelli, put some under the seafood when steaming it, put the seafood on top, then add minced garlic. Stir-fry the minced garlic with the raw and cooked ingredients, and finally, add oil after steaming to stimulate the aroma."

The cook wrote it down: "I've written it down, sir, but how do you make the raw and cooked garlic paste?"

“First add the oil and minced garlic, then add the oyster sauce and stir-fry half of it until it is fragrant, then add the other half and remove from the pan when it is cooked through. This is the half-cooked garlic sauce.”

Seeing that the chef didn't quite understand, Huo Hai explained: "This garlic paste will be spicy and unpleasant to eat if it's raw, but the taste is not good enough if it's fully cooked. Raw garlic can kill bacteria and viruses. Sometimes seafood is not cooked thoroughly for the sake of taste, which may cause the risk of bacterial infection. Garlic paste can avoid this problem and prevent stomachache."

"It takes both texture and taste into consideration, do you understand?"

Having said that, Huo Hai continued: "It's the same when making meat-filled buns. First, stir-fry half of the sauce, then mix it into the other half of the raw meat, and then wrap the buns. This takes both the texture and the taste into consideration."

After Huo Hai said this, the cook understood and quickly wrote it down: "Got it!"

Even though Huo Hai was talking, he didn't stop eating and had already swallowed several large pieces of lobster meat.

The people around were fascinated by what they heard and couldn't wait to try it out.

It is said that Wu Hou's business ability is unattainable. He is the richest man in the Han Dynasty, and the second richest man is far inferior to Huo Hai.

But Huo Hai's business ability is nothing compared to his ability in cooking delicious food.

Any method he comes up with is amazing and will definitely spread widely.

Today I saw with my own eyes Huo Hai pointing out the cooking methods of several dishes on the spot. As the first witness, who wouldn’t want to try it right away?
Unfortunately, making vermicelli takes time, otherwise the resulting vermicelli will be very thick, which is not suitable for seafood.

If Huo Hai hadn't mentioned this, everyone would want to try it now.

There were also restaurant chains on the scene who boldly asked, "Master Wuhou, can the method you came up with work in our store?!"

Huo Hai: “Use whatever you want!”

The same is true for the stores in Chang'an. The food that Huo Hai creates is not treated as a patent. Instead, it is open to everyone in the big chains in Chang'an, not because they are the only ones famous for their methods.

It is because they are the first people to get the recipe and are considered by the public to be the first authentic successor of Huo Hai's recipe, so they are so popular.

Huo Hai can’t eat the meat of such a big lobster by himself, how can he eat anything else?
Turning around, Huo Hai saw an oyster with a shell that was 40 centimeters long and at least one kilogram of meat inside!

Even Huo Hai thought he was seeing things and was seeing a giant clam.

After repeatedly confirming that they were oysters, Huo Hai didn't hesitate to be polite.

Several people around are thinking that this thing must be cut up and shared among everyone? Can you eat the next one?
It’s a blessing to have dinner at night.

Before Huo Hai started eating, he paused and said, "When we were in Chang'an, my brother liked to eat dried sea cucumbers."

"I know the power of seafood, and I know that some seafood is not suitable for being dried, but should be eaten fresh."

“Now that I’ve tasted it, it’s really amazing!”

"If we can deliver seafood from the sea to Chang'an in a few days, it will definitely be an amazing business!"

“It’s very profitable.”

Although large-scale transportation is impossible now, small-scale transportation is no problem.

After all, Qiancheng is not an ice-free port, but it freezes in winter. Can't the people here think of low-temperature transportation?

It's just that the cost is too high.

Huo Hai: "If this is accomplished, Your Majesty will be able to taste the delicious food of Qiancheng in Chang'an."

Huo Hai was eating here anyway, and didn't talk about business, so Liu Chang had an idea: "Brother-in-law, do you know the origin of Qian Cheng?"

"Qian Enzhi, oh." Huo Hai swallowed the food in his mouth: "I know."

Liu Chang: "Brother-in-law, this place is called Qiancheng, but now there are no cars produced here. The cars used for transportation here have to be transported from Chang'an. After one trip, the car itself will be damaged a lot."

"If we can produce vehicles here, the transportation industry will be greatly improved! By then, the time for transporting goods to Chang'an can be reduced by several days."

"With the new ships coming out and the Anluo Railway opening, maybe we can really transport seafood to Chang'an."

Huo Hai looked at Liu Chang.

This kid is okay, quite smart and knows what to do.

He clearly wanted to cooperate in business, but he just followed what Huo Hai had just said.

Huo Hai: “Now there are three places producing cars.”

"One is the brand produced by Changan, so it is called Changan brand."

"Huaishuo used to be called Great Wall, so the cars produced there are called Great Wall brands."

"There is a small production area in Jincheng. Millet was produced there before, and later the factory was named Xiaomi."

"What are you going to call on Qiancheng's side?"

Liu Chang: "We are in Qiancheng, so we can't call it Qiancheng. Qiancheng is a term that only the court can use. I have two ideas."

"When a horse is running fast, it's called 'ben'. When a carriage is running fast, it's called 'chi'. So, if a horse and carriage is running fast, how about just 'ben seng'?"

"Oh?" Huo Hai: "What's the second name?"

It's a beautiful thought.

Although the original name of this car factory is just a homonym, the Chinese word "Benz" is of such high value that no matter what era the car factory was born in, there will definitely be a factory with this name.

And it’s catchy and easy to use.

Huo Hai plans to keep this name. If a real internal combustion engine car is invented in the future, it will be called Mercedes-Benz.

Liu Chang: "If the name Mercedes-Benz doesn't work, I have another name, Dayun."

Tian Jue: "Good luck, we are lucky, Qiancheng is lucky, the Han Dynasty is prosperous. Qiancheng is an important place for maritime transportation, and the word "lucky" has many meanings."

Huo Hai stared at Liu Chang.

This boy is quite smart and knows how to name things.

The names are all good.

That’s great, the Han people have finally caught up, and they can go out and try their luck to travel to another world!
Huo Hai: "You are lucky. Find someone to organize it and recruit more shareholders. I will provide the technology and only want 30% of the shares."

Huo Hai would not spend money to occupy a large share. Huo Hai has a lot of investments and has no money to spend on such a small project.

The reason why Liu Chang was asked to recruit more people was not because Liu Chang could not come up with the money, but because Liu Chang was asked to recruit more local powerful people and new people with insights and abilities.

If Liu Chang doesn't even understand this, the factory cannot be opened.

Then this great fortune has to be done by someone else.

Seeing that Huo Hai actually agreed to this project, Xiao Guang said: "Wu Hou, apart from the car, it is too far to transport a steam engine here. Can we..."

Huo Hai shook his head: "No need for that. The shipyard will soon build a new steam engine factory."

How can this be done privately?

Xiao Guang felt a little regretful: "That wine..."

This sentence attracted a lot of people's attention.

You know, the production of highly distilled liquor is now all in Huo Hai's hands.

Huo Hai glanced at Xiao Guang and said, "You can do this, but I don't recommend it."

No one understood why.

Huo Hai: "Zhang Qian and his team have already explored it. There are several places in the south of Shu County with particularly good water quality. The wine produced there is better than that produced in Chang'an, and even far better than Chang'an wine."

"Although it was inconvenient to transport goods from there to Chang'an before, it doesn't mean it's inconvenient to transport goods from there to here."

A little further out from those wine-producing areas is the Yangtze River.

The entire route is navigable like a piece of cake for a thousand-ton ship.

I don’t know how much wine will be delivered here via the Yangtze River in the future.

If Qiancheng produced his own wine, he would end up like in his previous life, having to buy base wine from Shu County and then bring it back for blending.

In the past, when commodities were extremely developed, this was possible.

But now that the Han Dynasty is concentrating its efforts on development, this form of internal friction is really unnecessary.

When everyone heard Huo Hai say that the wine produced in Shu County was better than the wine produced in Chang'an, they had nothing to say.

Everyone trusts Huo Hai's judgment.

Although the transportation industry personnel and seafarers here in Qiancheng are crazy about alcohol.

But if there is already a better production area, even if you make money by investing in it, it won’t be much.

In today's world, if your investment doesn't increase two or three times, you've lost money. If it doesn't increase tenfold, you'd be embarrassed to say you have business talent.

Seeing that they really wanted to make money, Huo Hai said: "We can produce glass, mirrors, and some steel products here, and the restrictions can be gradually relaxed."

"You can all talk to Huo's manager."

Before Huo Hai spoke, there was nothing to discuss, it was all confidential.

After Huo Hai started talking, we could talk, and it became much easier!

In fact, in the vicinity of Qiancheng, some people secretly made glass. The method of making glass had been spread out, but the method of making mirrors had not been spread out.

But those present are people who have the opportunity to climb to the top of the world of fame and fortune. They will not offend Huo Hai or engage in piracy for a small amount of money.

As for those ordinary people who have just made a living and want to find an opportunity to climb up, secretly learn technology to open a factory and accumulate experience, Huo Hai will not even look at them.

Even in recent years, Huo Hai has been deliberately promoting this trend.

Now, the production of these things still needs to be done by large factories, otherwise the production volume will be too small.

You have to know that the things produced here can be transported to the sea. Commodities are needed at sea, especially for the Nanyue Kingdom, the Baiyue Kingdom, and the bases in the north.

Several ports will be opened along the way to the Bering Strait, and at least several cities will be formed in the future. These cities correspond to the Youbeiping area, Sushen area, and Icefield People area respectively.

These areas also need commodities.

It is obviously unreliable to do everything from Chang'an.

Things like glass must eventually be produced in large quantities, otherwise even a wine bottle has to be shipped from Chang'an, so what's the point of industrialization?

After Huo Hai agreed to so many projects, everyone at the scene was ecstatic.

These are all super profitable projects!

However, Huo Hai immediately poured cold water on him: "I hope that Qiancheng's peach industry can be standardized."

As soon as these words came out, everyone was stunned.

Food color also.

Food comes first, color comes second.

This is what drives humans.

Even when Huo Qubing built Jincheng at the foot of Jinshan Mountain, many of the first batch of merchants who went there were involved in love affairs. Especially after the fall of Loulan, the number of people engaged in the love industry there increased greatly during the turmoil. The merchants in Jincheng immediately expanded the scale of the love industry in Jincheng, and even a group of women went to Chang'an.

Of course, although this industry existed, slave trading was not allowed in this area except in the early days, otherwise these people would have been sold to Chang'an as slaves.

They all do this voluntarily.

This problem is not something Huo Hai can solve, and Huo Hai can't care less.

However, Qiancheng must be managed.

Huo Hai: "Have you ever thought that there have always been some cases of infection in this area? According to the medical research conducted by the current research institute, these diseases are infectious diseases."

"Qiancheng, there will be a lot of seamen traveling north and south in the future. They have endured for so long, and many of them will definitely want to find girls."

"If one person has a new infectious disease brought from somewhere else, wouldn't it be easy for the entire port to be infected in a short period of time, or even spread to the entire Han Dynasty?"

When these words were spoken, many people were shocked.

Huo Hai: "I know some of you are just pretending. You are not worried at all. You think you have money and can keep slaves. It's none of your business if someone gets sick. You don't go out to play."

"But I need everyone on the scene to agree to form a set of rules that are commonly recognized and to actively promote the legislation of these rules."

"In the future, all men and women in the sex industry will have to undergo health checks and obtain a license before they can work. If someone is infected and continues to serve customers, causing a large-scale infection, they will be caught and fined until they go bankrupt!"

Huo Hai didn't want to face AIDS in 100 BC, when blood transfusion technology was invented not long ago.

Everyone present was stunned.

The weight of Huo Hai’s words is obvious here.

Those big shots will definitely agree, so I have to agree even if I don't agree. If I don't agree, wouldn't that mean I'm going against the Huo family? Wouldn't that be courting death?

But this way, it will be difficult to make money!
Huo Hai: "Not only that, you also need to educate everyone about the dangers of these diseases, so that everyone can understand and distinguish them."

"If you can't do it, don't do this job."

Xiao Qing: "Good suggestion! I think it's feasible!"

Liu Chang: “Yes.”

Then one by one people agreed.

Many smaller businessmen agreed with gritted teeth.

Huo Hai had almost finished eating and threw away his chopsticks: "I will not leave Qiancheng for a short time. I will wait here for the new ship to be tested."

"So, there may be many new companies and new projects appearing in Qiancheng recently. Prepare your funds."

"Boom!" There was a commotion at the scene when Huo Hai said this!

I originally thought Huo Hai was just passing by, but I didn’t expect Huo Hai to stay!
That's pretty cool!

What a great opportunity to make a fortune!

In fact, Huo Hai and Liu Che discussed for a long time before deciding to develop Qi and Lu.

Because once sea transportation is fully opened up in the future, many industries will definitely move gradually to the south.

After all, Qiancheng is a place that freezes over in winter.

Therefore, no matter how this place develops, it will never become a threat to Chang'an, and it will even be difficult to catch up with the five cities of the Han Dynasty in the future.

In the future, all places will spontaneously develop into seaports, and Qiancheng will eventually return to its essence as a military port.

However, this wave of development can drive people far away from Chang'an to adapt to new business reforms and welcome the new era.
