Chapter 381 There are new ways to swim
Zhang Xiaobao and Wang Juan are still trying hard to make a profit. Wang Juan has started training the army and found three thousand soldiers from Henan Road. Wang Juan is preparing to train to deal with the troubles that are about to arise.
Three thousand people are not obtained in vain. They are exchanged for ten thousand soldiers from Jilizhou. Ten thousand for three thousand. Not only do they have to take care of the food of ten thousand people first, but these three thousand people also have to take good care of them. It is impossible to favor one and the other.
For the combat effectiveness of the army, Wang Juan also cruelly bought a large amount of meat and wine from other places, and gave it to 3,000 people. After five days of continuous use, Wang Juan was preparing to train hard on the sixth day. If he didn't work hard after eating wine, it would be unreasonable.
Zhang Xiaobao is still in charge of economic affairs, with 130,000 people. No, it should be said that he needs to raise 160,000 people. At this moment, he only enters and does not leave. He has calculated that one year, only one year, even if he eats, drinks and clothes, he will have to pay 200,000 yuan.
A child consumes more than two adults. He needs to drink milk, eat eggs, books, and pen, ink, paper and ink.
Zhang Xiaobao remembers that ***, a cup of milk strengthens a nation. He understands that what really strengthens a nation is not the cup of milk, but the spirit of a cup of milk. No matter how hard or poor you are, you must maintain this spirit.
He wanted to continue this spirit and let the Khitans and Sillas give in to this spirit.
Zhang Xiaobao discovered one thing, that is, there are not so many ceramics available here, or in the three northeastern provinces, such as Khitan, ceramics are still good among them, but because of transportation issues, the price of ceramics becomes very high.
There will always be a lot of damage to transport ceramics from other places, whether it is grass or branches of various plants, especially on land transportation. If a batch of ceramics comes, it will be good if you can use them in the end.
Even if it is transported by boat, the same is true. After all, the Khitan side is not tightly next to the beach, and still has to walk on the mountain road.
What's more, ordinary small businessmen dare not come over, for fear that others will rob them. Not to mention making money, it would be good if they have a life.
Zhang Xiaobao had the idea of ceramics. He didn't expect porcelain now, but there were many pottery in Changning, so he could cooperate with them. The first thing he thought of was the Qianshi Chamber of Commerce.
At the beginning, he was not ready to cheat and wanted to do business, but he was a little unwilling to accept it and would not be able to take revenge. Then he came up with an idea to cooperate with the Qianshi Chamber of Commerce.
Of course, he could not breathe even if he didn't know his name, and he only considered the two aspects of cooperation and non-cooperation in the Qianshi Chamber of Commerce.
Whether they cooperate or not, they can weaken them. Zhang Xiaobao thought so and sent two people from the inner courtyard to Changning County for negotiations.
After the two left, Zhang Xiaobao wandered leisurely to the beach, so he saw Wang Juan asking three thousand people to learn to swim. Wang Juan was holding a bow in his hand, and the arrow had already been set up, aiming back and forth there. She asked three thousand people to swim, and those who could not swim had to stay in the water.
If any one exposes her breasts for more than two breaths, then she will be prepared to shoot an arrow.
The effect is very good. None of the three thousand people dared to be there, and they were all cats. People who could swim tried hard to swim and swim back and forth in the water, while those who couldn't swim were also squatting in the water.
When Zhang Xiaobao saw three thousand people, he knew that they would be very obedient. It was not how sharp the bow and arrow in Wang Juan was, but that Wang Juan was too famous and that the army was the place where he spoke with strength. Of course, there was still a little bit of qualifications.
Not to mention Wang Juan's force, but the command is impeccable. The three thousand people who can come are all veterans. They want to get more benefits and want to join the army under Wang Juan's hands. They will be faced if they tell them out in the future.
Seeing that someone who could not swim deliberately showed grievance, Zhang Xiaobao said to Wang Juan: "Juanjuan, isn't it too cruel for you to do this?"
Wang Juan loosened his hand and an arrow flew out, so he stuck it to a person who was about to stand up and move for a while. He was so scared that the man immediately squatted down with a plop.
"Why are you cruel? Just bubble in the water and take a bath, it's not cold now." Wang Juan hit another arrow while speaking, making the people in the water even more scared.
"You don't understand what I mean. You always stay in the water like this. If you don't move, it will be cold. Why not let them catch some crabs and other things below, go back and fry them and eat them as snacks. If you catch too much, you can also send them to school to reward the children who are working hard."
Zhang Xiaobao said loudly to Wang Juan as if he was concerned about the soldiers in the water.
When the people in the water were close to each other, they almost fainted. When they looked at Zhang Xiaobao one by one, they were like looking at a demon.
Wang Juan suddenly realized and nodded, "Yes, why didn't I expect that it would be too cruel to just let them soak in the water. Now, after my order, I will catch at least ten crabs. When I get ten, I can have dinner today. If I don't have one night, I will be hungry for more than twenty, I can drink, and I can eat canned food after thirty."
With Wang Juan's order, the people soaked in the sea water seemed to be crazy to catch crabs, not because of the problem of eating one less meal, but because they could eat canned food after catching thirty pieces. They only ate this canned food once after coming here, and the taste was better than everything they had eaten before.
Zhang Xiaobao and Wang Juan disagreed with canned food. Who would want to eat canned food? The two of them watched the three thousand people rushing to catch crabs. The big ones were counted as small ones. The only requirement was that they could not catch them on the beach, because they could catch them very quickly on the beach.
"Actually, I'm not trying to let them all learn to swim and fight water. I just want them to exercise by swimming while in the water. The exercise on the flat ground is different from that in the water. If there is a way to make them not afraid of water and be able to exercise in the water, that would be even better."
Looking at the person fluttering back and forth in the water, Wang Juan said to Zhang Xiaobao.
Zhang Xiaobao didn't say anything, but thought about Wang Juan's words, and also looked at the person who was drilling back and forth in the water. After a while, Zhang Xiaobao's eyes suddenly lit up and he said to Wang Juan: "I know what kind of way is there to prevent them from fearing water."
"What's the solution?" Wang Juan asked in surprise.
"Listen to me." Zhang Xiaobao began to bite Wang Juan's ear.
The next morning, salt fields were built in Jilizhou where the seaside was suitable for the seaside. Although the time for sunshine here was too short compared to Luzhou, it was still on the beach, and the temperature was not low, so it was much hotter than Shenyang and Fushun, which went inside.
Many salt farms were built. Just when others thought Zhang Xiaobao and Wang Juan wanted to sell the salt produced in this salt farm, Zhang Xiaobao and Wang Juan organized a lot of people and began to carry out civil engineering operations in this place.
A big pit was dug out with the efforts of hundreds of people, and then cement transported from elsewhere was smeared back and forth in the pit.
A few days later, a super large open-air swimming pool was built. Xiaobei and others had long been thinking about coming in and swimming, demonstrating it for those who can't swim, and also enjoying the freedom of swimming easily.
This is not a common swimming pool. After waiting for a few days, the salt water concentration in the salt field reached a certain level. Zhang Xiaobao and Wang Juan asked someone to pour the salt water into the repaired swimming pool.
When many people were puzzled, Xiao Bei and others jumped down in person. In their swimsuits, they not only did not swim in the water, but instead took out a lot of food and held it with a large piece of oil paper.
The four sides of the oil paper have been slightly folded, but even so, it makes many people feel magical, especially the movements of Xiao Bei and his friends. Often, they should be lying flat on the water surface, otherwise they will sink.
But at this moment, they actually sat on the water surface, only their legs and an inch above their navel sank, and other places were exposed on the water surface. Through the water that was not too deep, everyone could see that Xiao Bei and his legs did not make any moves in stepping on the water.
People living by the beach know that if you step on water, if you want to expose more than one inch of your navel to the water surface, you can only do it in a short time, and then it will sink.
Everyone first exclaimed a burst of surprise, and then carefully observed it, hoping to learn the skills of Xiao Bei and others. Such water properties are extraordinary.
"Is there too much salt? It's already saturated? I guess the bottom of the swimming pool is full of salt crystals." Wang Juan looked at Xiaobei and others to demonstrate there and asked Zhang Xiaobao.
What Zhang Xiaobao is not considering is the value of salt, but that people who can’t swim dare to swim in this swimming pool in the future. This is the artificial Dead Sea, using the proportion of salt to support people.
In fact, people who often know how to swim cannot reach the level of Xiao Bei and others. Xiao Bei and others did not move their legs, but they kept adjusting their breathing to try to get into their stomachs so that they can float on it.
Hearing Wang Juan's words, Zhang Xiaobao nodded, "Don't worry about whether it's salt or not. First, think about training the sergeants here. I think if we don't have to sell salt, we can make a profitable deal."
"What business? Is the Dead Sea? There are not so many rich people here who are willing to come." Wang Juan suddenly thought of Zhang Xiaobao's idea, but he disagreed.
"Who said he had to be here? Changning County is good. Use a boat to transport salt and then create a larger swimming pool there, which can increase taxes in the county and allow more people to visit. It is not far from the capital, so that the tour group can design a special route."
Zhang Xiaobao did not focus on his local area at all, but thought of Changning County.
"Then which one do you think is greater, the price of this salt or the one you let others eat?" Wang Juan asked again.
"It depends on the distance of transportation. If there is any remaining, you can try it." Zhang Xiaobao insisted.
