Chapter 1585 Do Arms Business
After such a back and forth trial voyage, they finally selected a ship with [-] guns, which was larger than the one captured from pirates in Liangshui Town. train.

Qi Ke didn't get involved in the negotiations on the sale of the gunboat. Anyway, the boat was sold for 30 taels of silver at the price of a second-hand gunboat, which was almost 1 taels of a cannon with shells, and the boat was a free gift.

That's how cheap second-hand gunboats can be.

For the 30 taels, the Bai family army cashed in the cash from the Meiji bank in Dong'an Prefecture with the bank notes given by the imperial court, wrapped up a ship belonging to Jiaji, and escorted them here with heavy troops.

The captain collects the money to see off the guests, and the silver goes to Qi Ke's Qianhe Realm, where it is quickly melted and refined into pure silver ingots, which are then returned to the Ocean V fleet.

Qi Ke herself still wants to buy a second-hand boat in a foreign country, why not bring money to the captain to go on the road, if it is not enough, the silver will be used as a deposit first, and she will send the gold immediately.

The gunboats bought were driven away by soldiers from Baihusuo in Liangshui Town. Qi Ke dismantled the two guns and took a few boxes of shells as agreed before, and put them into imitation after the arsenal was completed.

As soon as the arms business here is over, the ocean-going No. [-] fleet, which has been silent on the pier, has finished loading overnight, and the guests in the town who are addicted to delicious food are carried to the ship, and when he wakes up from his dream , the fleet is at sea.

However, Qi Ke likes this foodie merchant who loves food very much, and specially arranged a pantry for him with a variety of varieties and is easy to carry at sea, so that he can eat all the way to his destination.

Merchants immersed in delicious food and wine will naturally find it difficult to notice what the sailors on the same ship eat every day. Anyway, he is like a mouse that fell into a rice bowl.

Sending off the Ocean No. [-] fleet, the fourth month of the lunar calendar is about to come, and the beginning of summer is coming, and the winter wheat in Siliu Village is about to be harvested.

The spring weather in Erma Town is good this spring, and the winter wheat in Siliu Village is naturally harvesting again. Every day, villagers from neighboring villages come to watch. The village head or the villagers discussed to change some wheat seeds and try it themselves.

Some villagers in the town also asked about this in Qi Ke's shop, and the maid who guarded the shop uniformly replied that they would report everyone's opinions to Boss Qi.

Qi Ke knew that he didn't rush to express his opinion after the incident, and waited for Baihusuo's attitude, because it was not his own village, and he didn't have the dignity of saying one thing, he was afraid that some wise people would make their own opinions and not follow the requirements, and the output would be affected in the end, and he would complain about this and that. So someone must take the lead in setting up a charter to remove her worries.

If the hundred households were silent, Qi Ke would be happy to save trouble.

Although she won't take the initiative to remind her, there is something she has to do. The handbook on winter wheat planting that she finally wrote cannot be left untouched. She printed a sample booklet at the county bookstore and sent it to Baiqing's desk in the Qianhu Office. Ask him How much do you plan to print.

Bai Qing divided the sample book into one in Erma Town, kept one for himself, and sent the rest to his father to ask the general for his opinion. He has heard about the current public opinion in Erma Town, and no matter how capable his subordinates are One person may use several petals, and it happens that Liangshui Town will also plant winter wheat this winter, and discuss with the general whether to send some people from places with conditions to learn.

Qi Ke waited for half a month, and received a reply from Bai Qing. The book still needs to be printed in [-] copies. In addition, before this winter, some people from all over the country will be transferred to Liangshui Town to learn how to plant winter wheat, including those from the other four villages in Erma Town. Villagers, as long as they want to learn, they can come to learn. Before they finish their studies, people outside Qi Ke's territory are prohibited from planting winter wheat indiscriminately, so as to avoid rumors and rumors about unsatisfactory yields, and let Qi Ke be optimistic about the wheat seeds so that they will not flow into the hands of outsiders.
