Chapter 89: Plunder begins with the lighthouse

The sea breeze in winter is indeed a bit cool and it doesn't warm up until noon.

"It's cold." Liu'er wrapped her arms around her hands and stood at the bow of the boat and shouted coldly. Several seabirds standing on the mast seemed to have cooperated and called out twice.

Zhang Xiaobao and Wang Juan were also standing on the deck. The two of them did not wear only a single dress like Liu'er. The winter here is not as good as the South Island of Shanghai, and sometimes they have to add some clothes.

Xin'er, Weiwei and Li Xun also came with her. A few people wanted to find some islands here and build some buildings on it, so that it would be convenient for boating at night, but it was actually a lighthouse.

The main reason is that when the fishing fleet came here two days ago, two boats hit the reef when they caught a shrimp. Even the fishermen with rich experience in this place were unwilling to come here at night. Even if the shrimp was really valuable, they would easily be buried in the sea if they were not careful.

Not to mention the reefs, there is no rule in the water flow here. The experienced local fishermen still cannot reach the state of being unruly and a rule. Two ships that hit the reef were towed back, and everyone on the ship was rescued.

When Zhang Xiaobao and Wang Juan heard this, they discussed it seriously and finally decided to build lighthouses in any place where dangers may occur. Large reefs will be built, and small lighthouses will be built, so that special people can be guarded so that those who go out for fishing at night can relax.

This cost is nothing compared to the shrimp that costs 200 min per pound. Neither Zhang Xiaobao nor Wang Juan recognizes that kind of shrimp, and it tastes different. The most important thing is to draw a sphere of influence and use these lighthouses to unite people's hearts.

Just like when I was in Zhuangzi, whether it was day or night, it always made people feel safe. If it succeeds, Zhang Xiaobao and Wang Juan are planning to build more lighthouses such as this and build them farther away. Even if they go out of the net, they can not only provide convenience to the fishing teams here, but also allow fishermen from other states around to come here to catch fish.

"Light can always guide people forward. There are too few strong people who can lead alone in the darkness, so give them a piece of light." Zhang Xiaobao stood at the bow of the boat and said, looking at the soaring seabird.

"What about the darkness? I finally know why you want to bring your father here. You want to attack the surrounding countries, or those tribes. It is just one aspect to build a lighthouse to protect the fishermen on your side. I guessed it now.

Although there are so many investments in building so many lighthouses, as long as there are lighthouses, fishermen will come to catch fish at night and tell me your next plan. I want to know how you can do it."

Wang Juan stood behind Zhang Xiaobao. She didn't think Zhang Xiaobao would build a lighthouse such a far away on a whim. It was already half a day away from the shore. Seeing the boat sailing, Zhang Xiaobao seemed to want to continue walking a little further.

"Let us bear the darkness and sin. I don't want to use force to deal with people from the countries and tribes around me. The lighthouse is something used for boating at night and can actually be used during the day. I will set up a flag and guide those fishing boats. I will arrange at least three people in each lighthouse.

These three people have to stay here for three months. When the shift is changed, and after the dock here is up, a large ship will be sent to patrol within the lighthouse. One of the three people guarding the lighthouse must be able to cook, and they cannot do it too badly and can be trained.

At that time, whether it is day or night, fishermen can eat good things in such a lighthouse. They don’t have to eat something that has been passed on to the *** and the rice dumplings that have evolved into sushi. Don’t underestimate such things. It is really important for the cohesion of a nation. This is the feeling of home.”

Zhang Xiaobao finally showed his fangs and wanted to invade the surrounding countries or tribes near the sea.

Wang Juan also knew that she could not stop this. The reason why she could guess that Zhang Xiaobao wanted to attack others was actually because she thought so too. There are a lot of resources around her. Why don’t you? Keep it for others, will they be grateful? Will they wait until they are strong and they can’t come to plot against you?

But Wang Juan always feels that this investment is too great, especially if he uses a large ship to patrol in the future. If the large ship is transporting cargo or something, he will definitely make more money.

"I asked you how you were trying to harm others, not about cooking and cohesion, and how much do you plan to take out the boat? Are there personnel on it?"

"Oh, ask this, do you think that there are too many ships to waste resources? This matter is easy to understand. What are the 20 aircraft carrier formations used for? What are the more than a dozen aircraft carrier formations in our country at that time? We will defeat the enemy without standing up and deterrently. I think the patrol ships can be in a group of two.

There are still twenty large ships that have been parked at the Qinzhou wharf, forming two formations, one stayed at the formation, and the other is ready to go out to help us at any time, so it is easy to solve the problem. There are few people on our side, so let’s recruit them from other places.

This is not invasion. Force is just a guarantee of peace. Think about it, if we set up a lighthouse on the islands farther away, and even send a big ship to be a lighthouse without construction, and connect it to other surrounding countries, who would you be happiest?"

Zhang Xiaobao knew that this matter was a long way to go, but if he didn't do it, it would always be so far. If he did it, it would develop slowly.

"Who? Of course they are fishermen. They can go further away to fish. Do you want the fishermen to argue with them and then send troops there?" Wang Juan thought of this at once.

Zhang Xiaobao was a little helpless and said to Wang Juan: "It's not okay if you don't kill people? The happiest thing is actually the merchants. Their sense of smell is the most sensitive. At that time, they will engage in various trades with them. These forces are for fear of conflicts between the locals and them. If they can solve things by economic means, who will use war to solve them?"

"Ah, so that's it. I thought you wanted to destroy the clan for others so that no one would bully our country again in the future." Wang Juan understood now.

"I don't do that kind of thing. If you are not weak, can others bully you? Just like when my father first arrived here, the four judges wanted to make a move. What's the result now? Even if everyone in the world is killed, the remaining people should still have conflicts, conflicts, and wars.

From a big perspective, without war, there will be no progress. From a small perspective, you have cream cakes, I can only eat corn flour steamed buns, and it is still the same kind of rough noodles. You have a small pistol, I have a sniper rifle. Do you think I will keep the steamed buns peaceful with you?"

Zhang Xiaobao knows this kind of human nature very well, so he never complains. Even if he encounters natural disasters, he will stubbornly resist and pray devoutly, so he should fight by himself rather than fight by himself.

Wang Juan also agreed with this idea, but suddenly she thought of a very important question and said to Zhang Xiaobao: "No, your force is to protect merchants, but you can guarantee that merchants will trade fairly with those people? Merchants know that there is a big backer behind them, and they will try their best to suppress the price of the other party."

"Yes, that's it. Otherwise, who will support my army? Isn't it that I still collect money from these merchants? Fair trading? The so-called fairness means that both sides feel that they can obtain the benefits they need. This is the fairest thing. After that, the fleet here only guarantees that the merchants will not be attacked by the other party by force, but does not help the superiors take the initiative to attack.

If a merchant has the ability, he will fight by himself. If he wins the amount, he will do it. If he doesn't have the ability, he will think of other ways. The army is a guarantee, not a nanny. Of course, if a merchant has the ability to provoke attacks from others, the fleet will be dispatched. This is also the ability of a merchant.

Actually, you are right. It is a kind of invasion, harmonious unilateral trade under the guarantee of force. Therefore, there is a commercial bank we control. The purpose is to maintain this very unfair unilateral trade. Whoever breaks this rule will consider whether our strength can compete with the chamber of commerce.

If those countries and tribes are smart, they will use this temporary unilateral trade to develop themselves. The stupid people will be immersed in the situation of abundant land and resources to enjoy it. In this case, who is a rabbit and who is a wolf, the right one is a judgment. I respect the rabbit that turns over and kicks the eagle, and will never pity the wolf that shrinks into a ball waiting to die."

Under the influence of an abstract country, Zhang Xiaobao was unwilling to do purely predatory business operations to the people of his country, but when he went outside, he could not control so much. The world was so big and he was not a master, so he had a selfish side. In his country, what he did was to gain spiritually. When facing other places, it was material.

Even if Zhang Xiaobao is Gautama, Siddhartha, Muhammad, and Jesus, there is still a lot of war. Who has less blood? Those doctrines are excuses for their invasion. Zhang Xiaobao's excuse is that you have good things, I want to bring them.

Wang Juan was about to say something else, but Li Xun came over and asked, "Xiaobao, your family is really willing to invest so much in building a lighthouse? A lighthouse may not be much money. If it is built too much, it will not be something that ordinary people can hold on. Why don't I invest some money too?"

"My family can hold on. If you want to join, you say you don't have to pretend to help. Do you believe it or not, my family will send the news back within ten days, raise 200,000 guan in ten days, and transport it here in two months?"

Zhang Xiaobao doesn’t care what Li Xun is. Li Longji usually speaks, admitting your strength, but not willing to be suppressed by you. If you are powerful, you will give you something. As for too much respect, don’t expect it. The only thing he respects Li Longji is because he sometimes does think about the people.

"Believe, believe, how can you not believe it? It's not easy for your Zhang family to make money. Do you know how your family is going to make money this time?" Li Xun didn't think anything wrong with Zhang Xiaobao saying this. If it weren't for this, he wouldn't like to play with Zhang Xiaobao and Wang Juan.

"It takes a long time to make money. You have to increase your investment in the past few years. If you have money, then take out more and get a share of it when you make money." Zhang Xiaobao said to Li Xun.

"I have money, I have it. Do you have to take out much at a time?" Li Xun, no matter what it is, he feels that he is still young and can wait. Usually, things that can make money for a long time will make more money.
