Chapter 479: Exploitation to the South
Pengcheng Wanli Group, Zhang Xianzhang is sitting in a chair, learning how to use a computer. Zhang Xianzhang neither participated in the speech nor complied with the requirement of purchasing after ten days.
This is a privilege!
The Shang Kingdom had no nobles, but recognized the status and privileges earned by individuals. As the president of Pengcheng Wanli Group, Zhang Xianzhang has sufficient priority to obtain the "trial right" of the computer. That is the so-called "internal testing".
"Very good baby!" Unlike Zhang Hang, Beidou Zhenren and others, Zhang Xianzhang viewed computers completely with a "normal heart of development". Here in the Kingdom of Shang, changes and surprises are the most normal life. Zhang Xianzhang would feel uncomfortable if one day there were no changes and no surprises in the Kingdom of Shang.
"This afternoon, I'm going to create a piece of news that will shock everyone!"
After a while, the slim secretary came, "President, everything is ready."
"Come on, let's go and have a look!" Zhang Xianzhang got up and walked out.
After getting in the car, Zhang Xianzhang came to the beach very quickly. Here, Pengcheng Wanli Group already has its own port, a private port.
"Although I say that I am a businessman, in fact, there is no essential difference between myself and those princes who seal the borders and crack the land in other countries.
If there is any difference, it is... we have a more cutting-edge vision and a broader vision! "
Looking at the completely changed Anyang City, Zhang Xianzhang suddenly became overwhelmed with pride, and blurted out a bold statement: "What is a country that is so rich that it can't be rivaled? In the future, we will still control the development of a country!"
Soon came to the private port belonging to the Pengcheng Wanli Group by the sea. In the port, under the cover of formations, a total of 20 large steel ships were undulating slightly in the waves. The largest ship has a displacement of 12,000 tons; the smallest has a displacement of more than 6,000 tons.
These ships not only exhausted all the wealth of the Pengcheng Wanli Group, but even borrowed 100 million taels of gold from the bank as a mortgage.
Moreover, all ships are equipped with storage technology that Shang Kingdom has just begun to "test". For the time being, this kind of storage technology is not very mature, and the price is relatively expensive, but it is enough to double the capacity of the ship. These increased capacities are all used to load fuel oil and liquid aura.
This is a gamble, because these ships will sail south and further south.
Pioneering, we must have the courage!
"The president is here." Everyone on the dock immediately looked over.
At the same time, the second shareholder, Xiao Zihou, who was busy on the wharf, also came. "Why is Brother Zhang here now? I planned to talk to you again at noon."
Zhang Xianzhang patted Xiao Zihou on the shoulder, "Shang Kingdom had another surprise just now. Here, I brought you a computer. This is a product that was just released this morning; it won't be sold publicly until ten days later."
For Zhang Xianzhang's privileges, Xiao Zihou has long been familiar with it, and he himself has many privileges. He just took over the computer and put it aside, without paying too much attention to it. "Brother Zhang just came, let's go to the pier first to see if there is anything missing.
This time, there were 20 ships with a total displacement of 150,000 tons and a net cargo weight of about 80,000 tons.
In addition, fuel oil and liquid aura have been added to the expanded volume; water barriers have been installed on the ships and optimized adjustments have been made. It is estimated that the sailing speed can reach 180 kilometers, which is almost four times the speed of the previous sailing. many.
It is estimated that the voyage distance can reach 600,000 miles and 300,000 kilometers. This time, we are going to sail directly to the Lingnan area.
If there is still enough fuel in Lingnan, then we may continue to sail south to find the rumored Haozhou.
But it's so far away that I don't know if it will be profitable. If the voyage is too far, if something unexpected happens, we may lose money. "
"Don't be afraid of losing money!" Zhang Xianzhang is worthy of being the president, "You know, I admire the virtuous king very much. I have learned one thing from the virtuous king, and that is-to go forward bravely and forge ahead.
Not afraid of losing money, but most afraid of losing confidence!
This time, let me go south and run hard!
This afternoon, I will release a press conference to let everyone prepare. I am applying for a warship escort from King Xian. "
"Okay!" Xiao Zihou nodded, his eyes were full of confidence.
The caravan is doing business, but it still needs to apply for a warship escort? In the past, in other countries, this kind of thing is absolutely unnecessary to think about - don't be too absurd to be a human being; but here in the Kingdom of Shang, it is possible! And it is encouraged!
"What products are prepared this time?" Zhang Xianzhang asked. On the matter of sailing, Zhang Xianzhang completely let Xiao Zihou go, and just boldly allocated funds. This leads to the current question.
Xiao Zihou chuckled: "Bearings, wires, elixir, some medicinal materials and materials purchased from the Yaozu. Stainless steel, a little black iron, red copper, fine gold, mithril, and a lot of talismans.
Of course, arms are also indispensable.
In addition, I also applied to Xian Wang for 50 tons of imperial slurry. But this thing is really expensive, 20 million taels of gold for a ton of emperor liquid; temporarily owed on credit, and will pay after returning. "
"If you pay after you return, you need to pay an extra five thousandths of the interest." Zhang Xianzhang sighed. Li Xian is the biggest businessman in the Shang Kingdom! Without making a sound, the imperial ointment was produced. If Zhang Xianzhang hadn't decided to expand abroad, he wouldn't have gotten this news.
But this time Zhang Xianzhang did not participate in the bidding and construction of Beidou City, but went all out to expand externally, which made Li Xian very happy. Thinking of the dangers of ocean voyages, Li Xian finally took the initiative to open up part of the emperor's liquid in order to encourage this spirit of expansion.
But Li Xian only planned to support one ton at the beginning, and he did not plan to pay on credit. But Xiao Zihou is also a capable person, he stalked and stalked away fifty tons of emperor's fluid in one go, and he was still owed on credit. Although it pays five thousandths of interest, ocean voyages are lucrative.
Last time, the preparation was very hasty, and the profit of Pengcheng Wanli Group was several times; this time, the preparation is well prepared, and the profitability is expected to exceed six times! The more you do, the more experience you have; ammunition is a good thing! And Diliuzhi, etc., were treasures that could not be found in ancient times.
In the afternoon, Anyang City was bustling again.
First, Fu Minghui will set off for the south in three days and go to the Wu and Yue countries to sit in town.
Second, Pengcheng Wanli Group has prepared a full 80,000 tons of goods, including ships, etc., with a total amount of 400 million taels of gold (not counting Emperor Liuzhi) to launch an unprecedented ultra-ultra-ocean voyage! Again, will depart in three days.
The Pengcheng Wanli Group has spent all the accumulation of these years in one go, and even borrowed from the bank as a mortgage. It is going to make a huge gamble.
Thirdly, a long-prepared concert is about to begin.
