The wife of a woman collecting herbs cannot be bullied

Chapter 655

For one thing, the people in Nanwaihai will feel more at ease when the General Administration buys properties here.Both ordinary people and wealthy families believe that if the general has his own property, the fleet will of course work harder to protect the safety of one side; in the same way, pirates are also taboo because of this.

Furthermore, if you want to stop people in the military port from colluding with local forces, instead of blocking them, it is better to let everyone openly buy some properties and have the opportunity to earn some foreign money.

Therefore, not only Chu Xu, Shi Feng, Shi Dian and others also made some small fortunes.Therefore, these industries have been quietly sorting out recently.Whether to keep it or sell it, everyone is very entangled.

Faced with these inquiries, Shi Chuying could only ask everyone to make an order first, and wait for further news to make a decision.According to the person who replaced Chu Xu, there will be news after the Chinese New Year next year, and then they will know whether to stay or not.

However, besides the Beicai porcelain kiln, Shi Chuying only kept a herbal medicine shop for herbal medicines, which only collected medicinal herbs from here in Nanwaihai and the Antarctic Mountains.

Here in the General's Mansion, she discussed with several senior managers, recruited children, and picked out seven or eight properties:

The first is the fleet that salvages and acquires pearl oysters.No matter what kind of pearl shells they got, they would sell them to shell-color porcelain kilns after taking the pearls, which is a safe business;
Similarly, there is a jewelry shop that mainly uses pearls, supplemented by materials such as coral, tortoise shell, and giant clam.Regardless of whether they were collected by their own fleet or purchased from outside, except for selecting some of these items and handing them over to the mansion, the rest will be inlaid into jewelry by the masters in the shop according to the pictures given by the wife for sale.

Madam is a genius. In the past, others piled up piles of odd-shaped pearls and small unremarkable beads. Some were inlaid into strange jewelry according to the shape, and some were powdered to make medicinal materials. Pearl shells are fired together to make shell colored porcelain.Not to mention those beautiful conches, shells and more.

Another industry is seafood shops.This is almost everywhere in Nanwaihai, but the focus of each family is slightly different.In addition to fish, shrimps, crabs, sea cucumbers, oysters, sea urchins, sea mussels, sea oysters, and various deep-sea products, this shop in the General Administration also collects seafood such as seaweed and kelp plants. The fruit is also harvested.

All of these, except for gifts from the mansion, and food for oneself, were all sent to the inland for sale.After all, there are not many Antarctic Ports that can take warships to and from the capital to transport private goods.Of course, it is not for nothing, everyone can get some benefits.Everyone's happy.

The businesses that Chu Xu and his family do are the most common in the local area, but because of the lady Shi Chuying in their house, these businesses are a little different.Others put them out for sale after they are dried in the sun, and the number of ways to transport them out is similar.The only difference is who has more customers.

But the General Administration is not. They only salvage the shellfish themselves, and most of the things are purchased.As a result, it has given business to many local people, and the more people grab business, the lower the price will be.

And when these things are collected, they are not greedy for excessive size, and even the particularly large ones are not collected.In the words of my wife, it is too old and the meat is not tender.These seafood are packed in the wife's special basket, and they are quite fresh when transported back to the capital, which is more profitable than selling dry goods.It's okay for others to stare blankly.

From these few industries alone, the General's Mansion has made a lot of money in the past few years.Naturally, there are many people who follow to get rich, but after all, it is not as much as others.

As for the precious wood, spices, big fish skins and other businesses that other families still do, Shi Chuying and Chu Xu don't touch their hands.This can be said to not monopolize the source of income, or it can be said to have a trade-off.

In addition, the General's Mansion also does some local grain business such as peanuts and sesame seeds. After all, the temperature here is suitable all year round, and the price of a few grains is relatively much cheaper than that in the inland. , also collect some exquisite ones, and sell them back to the inland.

Shi Chuying took an inventory of these properties, weighed them secretly, and asked Chu Xu, "Will General Wu go back too?" Wu Zuqing and others have followed Chu Xu in the past few years. Really benefited.If he continues to be here, some business can still be done.

Chu Xu nodded, "The senior generals have been changed, but the main generals can no longer be changed. Both are new, so it's hard to say about Nanwaihai. The new emperor will definitely not do this." He wanted to do this, even the emperor could not promise.No one wants their hard work to be ruined by a novice!
"Then look, can this industry continue to be developed for a few more years?" Shi Chuying pushed the materials sorted out in her hand to Chu Xu, and some of them were marked with a Luodai pen.

Chu Xu smiled, asked for a pen from Shi Chuying, ticked off a few more, and explained: "Even if we go back, Yu Wei can still be suppressed for two or three years. If we withdraw all at once, the impact will not be great. Good. The old sage and the new emperor must be aware of this point. Our business has been here for three to five years, and when the new generals get a firm foothold, we are withdrawing, and the connection is just over."

"I'm afraid the new general will not think much about it." Shi Chuying was still a little worried.The heart is not always so open.

Chu Xu disagreed, "What if you don't think so? No matter who comes, they can't gather the fleet all at once, and they can suppress all kinds of forces in the South Sea. If we want to gain a firm foothold, we have to borrow our previous momentum.

We have suffered a bit in the past, but the first shot is risky, so naturally it has benefits.The later ones can only look at our necks, and it is impossible to surpass them. "

Just like the founding emperor, no matter how good your future emperor is, it can only be based on the foundation of your ancestors...

Since Chu Xu said so, Shi Chuying has always believed in Chu Xu for this kind of brainstorming, and he will do as he says.Now she doesn't even have to rush to withdraw her business.It is a few years to earn more.

After sorting out the property, I asked Brother Zhao to take his younger brothers and sisters to inspect it again, and the time has entered the end of autumn and the beginning of winter.Nanwaihai is the harvest season for all kinds of fishing, and it is also the busiest time for the businesses in the shops. Therefore, the rectification is relatively thorough, and these industries are more vibrant.
