"The oceanic substances in the southeastern area are already very circulating. You both saw this with your own eyes, right?"

Zhao Liang did not hide his plans at all. Who told him that his friendship with Heshen was so good? And what he said was not false at all. Even in the late Ming Dynasty, silver dollars from Portugal and Spain had already flowed into the southeast coast.

"The silver dollar has a unified texture and is easy to count. Compared with the various silver samples in my big green fruit, do you think, how much effort can it save when trading?"

In order not to suffer losses, every time you trade, just checking the silver can make people wait until they collapse. Zhao Liang has a deep understanding of this in the past few years.

He was "first-coming" back then and suffered several losses in terms of money.

At that time, I felt so depressed.

It’s obviously a profitable deal, but after the last calculation, I’ll lose money. That feels too scrambled!

"All expenses are eliminated, and there is about 70 to 80% of the profit. This seems not high, but in fact it is extremely rich. How could the court not be moved after seeing it?"

"What's more, once this silver dollar becomes popular, the fire consumption will be reduced, which will not only benefit the people's merchants, but also the court, right?"

The silver treasurys of various provinces, prefectures and counties are used to cast official silver every year. I don’t know how much taels of silver to be consumed in the stove. Isn’t it all saved now?

Although Zhao Liang really didn't understand why the Chinese did not think of minting gold and silver coins in the 500 years of the Ming and Qing dynasties. They only waited until the end of the Qing Dynasty that the country was completely opened, and the foreign dollar marketed and the rights were spilled out, and large-scale minting silver coins began. At that time, Europe, the United States and other countries were already using paper money, and it seemed that it was a whole late for others...

But he believed that as long as he put the thing in front of Heshen and pierced the window paper for him, Heshen, who was smarter than a monkey, would definitely be overjoyed.

The profit of 70 to 80 cents is not high, but you have to think about the base they face - how much silver does the entire Daqingguo have?

Multiply this base by seven or eight points of profit...

God, that would be a number that would make anyone crazy. Even if it was very beneficial to the Qing court.

Of course, Zhao Liang was definitely not kind enough to contribute to the financial cause of the Qing Dynasty, but rather that he firmly believed that the "surplus value" he had "created" was nothing in the eyes of Qian Xiaosi, who was spending money.

Maybe the little more money that was paid by the national treasury after making large silver dollars this year will be spent on Qian Xiaosi’s fifth trip to Jiangnan Road next year.

"I have read it carefully and try to imitate all the things. If anyone can improve the technology, I will have a great reward."

Zhao Liang said to his own craftsmen.

The next group of people nodded. They had been working with the Zhao family for a long time and knew the rules of the Zhao family.

As long as you do your job well and do a beautiful job, the Zhao family will not treat them unfairly.

Slice rolling machine, cutting machine? Including screw press? That's not a complicated thing.

Even if there are two types of spiral presses, one is to apply torque to the bolts to generate static pressure? The other is to concentrate the rotation energy of the flywheel fixed on the bolts for forming at one time? But it is not a natural barrier.

Before the coming of the Industrial Revolution, the West certainly surpassed the East in equipment technology? But the gap between them is far from irreparable.

The masters gathered together by the Zhao family only rely on hand skills? Copy these equipment? There is no pressure.

As for efficiency matters? Isn’t it time to consider this point yet, isn’t it?

After the matter here came to an end, Zhao Liang was determined to "see" Zhu Wo and Qidian.

One of these two people is in Guangzhou and the other is the ocean-going fleet responsible for the Yunxiao Ship Gang. This time we came together? Of course, something is wrong.

Qidian is going to get married? Being the son-in-law of Da Zhaozhuang is definitely a major event in his life. It can even be said to be a change in his life. From then on, he is no longer a slave-born servant of the Zhao family, but a son-in-law of the Zhao family.

Since he was tall and superior, he has become more powerful than Feilu Niu.

He was guarding these equipment along the way? Because he knew how much Zhao Liang valued it.

Zhu Wo obviously came to report his work to Zhao Liang.

The two "big 500,000" have prepared all the artillery, and even those "crews" have received excellent training after half a year of training.

Soon after the autumn wind comes, they will set sail south.

Although the red single-ship is better than the orthodox Western sailing ship? It is not restricted by the monsoon. Even when it is heading against the wind, it can still sail on the sea? Because it is loaded with Chinese hard sails.

But midsummer is the time for storms in the South China Sea? Whether it is Zhu Wo? His brother Zhu Bin, he would not have asked people to take such a big risk when they first went to Southeast Asia.

When the autumn starts, I will set off again. Not only will the storm and rain be less, but it will be smooth sailing along the way. Isn’t it fragrant?

Zhu Wo came here to report this matter to Zhao Liang. Although you can tell him in a letter, there is still plenty of time before departure. Zhu Wo personally went to the Central Plains to report to Zhao Liang in person, which seemed even more serious, right?

...

Chenzhou City South, Xiange Academy.

He Zhihui, Zhao Hui, Zhao Dean and others were quietly staying in the crowd. In front of the crowd, the mountain leader of Xiange Academy and a group of people were talking with smiles on their faces.

After so many years, Fan Zhizhong is the only Jinshi who has been in the Xiange Academy that has been established on two lists. Although he will never be an official in his life, he is still very noble.

Not to mention that Fan Zhizhong is very capable in teaching. Today, he visited Xiange Academy. How could the hospital not welcome him?

All students in the entire academy were welcomed.

Zhao Hui looked at the fanatical and respectful faces on the left and right, and felt very confused.

Are these people respecting Mr. Fan himself? Or are they respecting him on the title of Jinshi on the two lists?

If it were a year ago, he would have been one of the people.

But now, Zhao Hui is becoming increasingly reluctant to work hard on the Four Books and Five Classics.

He himself noticed that he could not let go of the collection of essays and arts that he had never been willing to pick up before, and now he could not read them. Instead, the things thousands of miles away attracted him more.

Just like the latest developments in the relationship between Britain and France and the war in the Americas that his brother sent people two days ago, Zhao Hui carried the oil lamp and copied a thick excerpt to read all over the night without missing a word.

Shi Kui teased him, saying that based on his brother Zhao Liang's deep relationship in the capital, he will definitely pass the college entrance examination next year.

Moreover, it is very easy for Zhao Hui to become an official. The Zhao family needs money and some people have them. Donating officials to become officials, are you worried that you can’t make up for the actual lack?

This made Zhao Hui very ashamed. He didn't know how many times he had blamed himself in his heart - he really disappointed his family and elders' expectations for him.

However, Zhao Hui found that he could not accept it at all.

Those things thousands of miles away, those scenes he had never heard of before, and those scenes that he had never thought of, and the extremely vast new world was really attractive to him.

The glory of the Jinshi is really not good for him.

"Zihua..." Zhao Dean called Zhao Hui's face behind his back.

Why did he leave? Mr. Fan still has a lecture because it will be a provincial examination soon. They will set off for Kaifeng to take the exam.

Today, there are countless students from the Xiange Academy, and everyone wants to listen to Mr. Fan’s insightful opinions.

Why did Zhao Hui leave?

He Zhihui grabbed Zhao Dean and said, "Guangming doesn't care, what are your name? Let him go." After all, Zhao Hui is really very different from them.

The mere college examination was not a big deal to him.

With the current momentum of the Zhao family, Zhao Hui could get into the scholar even with his eyes.
