Zhu Bin is a native of Fujian Province, and his father is also the first local shipping company. He has a foundation. Now the village takes advantage of his own advantages - he has food in his hands, so he naturally develops close relationships with coastal merchants in Zhangzhou, Quanzhou and other places.

The cooperation between the two parties can be said to be intimate.

In each transaction, both sides agreed on a time and place in advance, and barge the ship with a small boat to the mast on the sea boat with signs in order to avoid the water patrol of the Guan Pass.

Zhu Bin sold the food lacking in Fujian to the coastal merchants, and purchased local local specialties from them and transported, sold and resold foreign goods.

As long as you are not caught by anti-smuggling soldiers, you will never be able to make money.

Moreover, money can be used to communicate with Zhu Bin. Many local officers and soldiers also interacted with him. In name, they were anti-smuggling, but in fact they were in a joint venture with Zhu Bin to traffic in mutual benefit.

But this is just a small fight.

Those anti-smuggling soldiers floating on the water are just little ghosts in front of the King of Hell. Don’t say it nicely, what is the King of Hell that makes it difficult to deal with the little ghost? Don’t you hear another saying that the King of Hell that makes it difficult to deal with the little ghost?

When Zhu Bin's ship gang was average, he couldn't catch the eyes of some big shots. Naturally, he just needed to send some little ghosts away and it was OK.

But when Zhu Bin's power developed to a certain extent, his existence would have a huge impact on the local old interest groups. After these people used the power of the official face, the King of Hell spoke, how could the little ghosts not listen?

Even if you just turn a blind eye, it will have a heavy impact on Zhu Feng's development.

But now Zhao Liang's appearance has completely changed these things. It can be said directly that Zhu Bin can no longer become the King of Zhenhai in history.

Wouldn't Zhu Bin be respectful when he met Zhao Liang?

"I have never been to Fujian, and I have no great social interactions with the big people in Fuzhou City, and I don't have much understanding of local merchants and gentry in Fujian, but I think you should have a clear idea in your heart?"

"Tell me, do you think you will hit the red line when you develop to a very high level?"

No matter how big Heshen is, Fujian Province cannot allow Zhu Bing to grow infinitely. There must be a red line.

"Hundreds of sea ships are up and down." Zhu Bin immediately gave a number.

The number of crew members required by Chinese sailing ships is far less than that of Western sailing ships. However, in addition to being sailed, a ship also needs to have certain self-defense power, so there must be thirty or forty people on a ship.

Such a hundred and ten sea ships, plus some supporting facilities, left-behind and reserve personnel, were not even enough! This is already very powerful in Fujian.

After receiving Zhao Liang's capital injection, Zhu Bin has begun to eliminate some old ships, replace them with new ships, and even purchased several old gate ships.

The old gate ship is also a red single ship, a ship that combines Chinese and Western styles.

As early as the Ming Dynasty, the Portuguese, who obtained the right of residence in Macau, used a large number of Chinese sailing ships to conduct regional trade between China and Southeast Asia. In actual use, the Portuguese discovered that although Chinese sailing ships have the advantages of being easy to operate and require less manpower, they also have thin hulls and not flexible enough to travel, which is not as good as Western sailing ships that can withstand wind and waves and pirate attacks. However, a single Western sailing ship is expensive, and it requires a large number of skilled sailors to operate sail cables, which is too expensive. Therefore, the Portuguese combined the long side of the Western sailing ships with the hard sails of Chinese sailing ships and invented a new sailing ship that has the advantages of Chinese and Western sailing ships. People in Fujian and Guangdong call it the old gate ship.

The manipulation of this kind of ship is also very simple, but the slender hull cannons can be installed with a large number of cannons, each with twenty or thirty cannons. The power of firepower is much more powerful than that of old-style blessed ships, wide ships, bird ships, etc.

"Is it the best you can reach the top just by just this?" Zhao Liang murmured to himself. This number is much worse than his inner expectations.

Because even if these hundred sea ships are all "strong" red single ships, their sea power is irresistible than that of the British.

Zhu Bin rolled his eyes when he heard Zhao Liang talking to himself. It was still that little? This man is really not short of money.

"Uncle, there are already a lot of hundreds of sea ships." Those new ships and old gate ships are very capable of loading.

Many ship owners cannot afford to buy new ships at all. Zhu Bin took out the money to lend it to the ship gang himself, which is equivalent to binding it tightly. Therefore, the cohesion of the ship gang he led is far greater than that of other ship gangs of the same size. In terms of quality, he also puts his "companions" behind his mind.

Zhao Liang looked at the chart brought by Zhu Bin and remained silent.

This is a "power map" of the ship gang. It can be seen from the red dots marked that the current ship gang business has developed from the original Fujian province to Jiangsu, Zhejiang and eastern Guangdong provinces.

Mawei in Fujian, Tong'an, Nan'ao in eastern Guangdong, Chenghai in Jiangsu and Zhejiang, Ningbo in Taizhou in Jiangsu and Zhejiang, Lugang in Danshui in Grandma, etc., as well as the shipyards standing in the sky and Gulei in Zhangpu and other Aowu ports.

Compared with Zhao Liang before investing in capital, this development momentum is indeed very amazing.

However, except for the routes of the Dazheng people, the routes in Jiangsu, Zhejiang and eastern Guangdong are still dotted lines, especially those heading to Jiangsu, Zhejiang, which are not only dotted lines, but also light in color.

Of course, Zhao Liang could understand this picture. As long as he combined the existing business of Zhu Binchuan Gang, he could figure it out.

The business in Jiangsu and Zhejiang must have just been developed, while Zhu Bin and eastern Guangdong have become much more stable. Before, he bought all the food on hand from eastern Guangdong, but now he has added a piece of tea, which is definitely much more stable than the trading in Jiangsu and Zhejiang. The trading routes of Fujian are the most stable and solid.

But, "Why didn't we go to Nanyang?" Zhao Liang asked. "What if we divide some of our strength to involve Nanyang in the future?"

Zhao Liang had a huge goal to develop maritime power, and he would inevitably involve Nanyang in the future, especially now that there is an existence named Lan Fang in Borneo. If he didn't take the opportunity to insert it, he wouldn't be a time traveler.

"You know Borneo. As far as I know, there is a local man named Luo Fangbo. Although he has only crossed the sea from eastern Guangdong for a few years, he has already won the public's popularity and has led the people."

"Even the local kings are weak, the future is unlimited."

Zhao Liang really admired this person in his heart. In just a few years, he worked hard from a poor scholar to the head of the Tang Dynasty. He was not as proud as he was. This is the real great man!

"What if we vigorously develop trade with Nanyang next? Let's use Borneo as the transit station!" That's our own person.

This will reduce the pressure in Fujian?
