Chapter 422

Fang Qiang gave Hei Tou a serious lesson, and then explained to him: "Stinky boy, let me tell you, your idea is good, but it is completely wrong. Soldiers have been sailing on the sea for a long time. You absolutely can’t just eat fish. You don’t need to understand the specific reasons. You just need to know that soldiers will get a very serious disease after a long time, the kind that can kill people! At that time, the combat power of the entire Jinling Navy and There is no difference between zero. You have to remember this clearly, do you understand?"

Seeing the seriousness of Fang Qiang's words, the black head hurriedly bowed in response, "Yes yes yes... I finally understand..."

"You know what, I haven't finished yet! It's easy to get rid of this disease, as long as you take regular vitamin supplements. Vitamins are the nutrients contained in most vegetables and fruits. To put it simply, regular supplements Some fruits and vegetables!"

In this way, blackheads can understand, but finding fruits and vegetables in the vast sea is not a general difficulty, but simply impossible!

"Wu Guogong, I understand what you mean, but these vegetables and fruits are not easy to find, and most of these things are not easy to store, so..."

"Don't worry! I've thought about this problem a long time ago!"

In fact, Fang Qiang's visit to Jinling Naval Division this time is to solve this problem. Fruits and vegetables really cannot be stored, even those that are not perishable, and it is impossible to store them for a year or so.But canning them doesn't have this problem.

Canned fruit, canned vegetables, canned beef... There are all kinds of canned food, so that not only can the vitamins needed by the sailors be guaranteed, but also a variety of nutrients can be fully provided. The most important thing is the canned food. Stuff is a rare delicacy!

At least the soldiers and civilians in the territory like it all.

Fang Qiang said to Heitou: "The area around Hezhou City is rich in fruits. I have opened several canning factories there. From today onwards, you should start stocking up on such things and prepare for future voyages on the sea!"

"Canned food?" Heitou's eyes lit up when he heard these two words. This is a good thing. It is not only delicious but also anti-hunger. The only disadvantage is that it is too expensive!
Canned food is sold in shops in Jinling City, but those goddamn merchants want a silver dollar for a can!God is sorry to see, the silver reward for navy officers and soldiers is only one silver dollar a month, if you eat canned food, it is not enough at all!
"Wu Guogong, this canned food is good, but it's too expensive. Jinling Navy's funds are limited, so I'm afraid they can't afford it..."

"Well, that's a problem, but don't worry, canned food has no technical content. The factory in Hezhou is our own, so the cost of canned food will be reduced to one-tenth of the original cost!"

"Wu Guogong, even if it is one tenth, we can't afford it. Those warships are soaked in water every day, and the repair and maintenance costs are astronomical, so..."

Fang Qiang was a bit dumbfounded when he heard this. It was hard to imagine that the Jinling Navy was so poor!
"Stupid boy!" Fang Qiang scolded with a smile, and then said: "Why don't you take advantage of such a good resource of Jinling Navy? You can't be so poor if you send a few ships casually!"

"How many ships to dispatch?" Heitou was a little puzzled for a while. He thought carefully for a long time before tentatively asking: "What do you mean by letting your subordinates lead troops to rob? But who will rob whom? Territory They are all our people!"

"What?" Fang Qiang's face was filled with shock for a moment, "You brat! Are you going to piss me off? You are sailors, soldiers, not robbers! Is there no other way to make money besides robbery? What? What are the boats in your hands doing for food!"

"Boat?" Heitou still looked ignorant, but he can't be blamed for it. He may be very good at what kind of fish is delicious after spending many years in the river, but when it comes to business acumen, he must be an idiot. Xiaobai in Baizhong!

Seeing that he didn't understand, Fang Qiang explained further, "The scope of activities of the Jinling Navy is the entire Yangtze River. This is such a good water transportation route. You just need to pull a few boats and sell them, and you will definitely make a lot of money." Bo Yi! And besides going up the river, you can also trade overseas. That is a real treasure house. As long as the trade can be established, it will not be enough to support a Jinling navy, even if it is to support the people in the entire territory. question!"

"Really?" Heitou's eyes have turned into the shape of ingots. Although he still has some doubts in his heart, he also has his own judgment. What Fang Qiang said is really feasible!As long as the smooth flow of the Yangtze River waterway is guaranteed, the Jinling Navy will have no problem eating canned food every day!

As for overseas trade, Heitou has no plans for the time being. The Jinling navy without special training may be able to dominate the river, but it is another matter when it comes to the sea.In short, blackheads will not take risks until the brethren are fully adapted to the wind and waves of the sea!
"Wu Guogong, your idea is good. In fact, our navy still has a few large ships, which were all seized from Chen Youliang. Anyway, it is useless to leave them in the port. It is better to let them pull the goods! The Yangtze River is so long. Taking a trip will definitely be a lot of money!"

"Well, you brat, you finally got the hang of it!"

"Hahaha……"

After Fang Qiang said this sentence, the two laughed at the same time.

After the matter was settled, both of them were relaxed, and the black head asked again: "Wu Guogong, what are we having for dinner tonight? You haven't said anything yet!"

"What to eat?" Fang Qiang thought for a moment and said, "Eat sea cucumbers, abalone, and lobsters. It's rare to come to the beach and you have to eat seafood!"

"Hi!" Heitou slapped his thigh and said, "What am I supposed to be? We have plenty of the things you mentioned! And if you are interested, we can go to sea to catch them yourself. It's not far, just around the corner of the Yangtze River Estuary! "

When Fang Qiang heard this, it was a good idea. It seemed that he hadn't gone out to sea for a while.

But then I looked at the sky outside and decided to forget it and wait until dawn tomorrow!
"Heyhead, order the sailors, let's go out to sea tomorrow to watch the sunrise, and train in the sea, but let's forget about it today..."

"Yes, Duke Wu!"

……

Early the next morning, the wind was sunny and there were no clouds in the sky. Just looking at the clouds and autumn in the sky, I knew it was a rare good weather.

The ten warships of the Jinling Navy lined up on the Yangtze River port, ready to go.Today's purpose is only one, to go to sea for training!

Of course, fishing for seafood is just incidental!
