"Old lady, since we are going to do escort business, should the weapons on the ship be..."

Hu Yinglong rubbed his hands and asked with a smile.

Qiao Mulang laughed:

"Of course, you will not be missing firearms, but you have to wait for the time being. The ships you are using now cannot be equipped with some heavy firearms. New large ships are being built. At that time, the new ships will be equipped with thirty-two giant artillery, which are ships specially used for long-distance voyages. After the new ship is built, the corresponding weapons will be prepared.

By the way, what is the current situation of the islands in Nanyang? How many do they occupy?"

Qiao Mu's original plan was to make money and occupy both land. It seems that there is no problem in making money at present. As long as nothing unexpected happens in the future, it will be completely fine to earn one or two million taels of silver every year. In the future, as the trade radiation range increases, there may be more.

&1t;i>&1t;/i>

Next, we naturally have to focus on occupying the land, not only for the purpose of arable land, but also for leaving a way out for the family.

"Old lady, we have to occupy dozens of islands in the South China Ocean. Anyway, we have occupied a circle of islands near the Marina Bay. However, the area of ​​the islands there is not very large. The largest one is only one thousand hectares, and there are a few small ones that are only 180 hectares. If there are a little bit of strong wind and waves on the sea, it may be flooded. So we only dare to reclaim some fields on the larger islands. Other places are still deserted. Only a few fishing bases have been built, and fishing on the spot are just there. Although the profit of dried fish is not high, it is better than wasting it.

At present, we have too few people. Even if we occupy some places, we cannot manage them. However, this year, there has been a major flood near Dinghai. It is said that one million people have been affected. The disaster relief funds from the court have not been allocated yet. I want to ask, can we take the opportunity to gather some people to help?"&1t;i>&1t;/i>

Hu Yinglong’s meaning is very obvious. To collect the victims, he must spend money and buy grain, so he came here to ask for the right to use the money and grain.

Qiao Mu had nothing to hesitate about in this regard and asked directly: "This is no problem.

However, you have to give me a correct number of money and grain to pay for and how many victims you want, so I can make targeted funding."

“It’s hard to say exactly.

Old lady, that's the case. We don't know when the disaster relief funds from the court will be there, nor how much disaster relief funds allocated by the court will be greedy, so the specific situation is hard to say. Before the disaster relief funds of the court were allocated, about three or five taels of silver would be taken away for dozens of kilograms of grain, and you can find a way to get a person. If the disaster relief funds from the court were allocated, it would be much more difficult after the news spread, and at least it would take double to get a victim. However, if the funds from the court were seriously corruption and many people could not get a share at all, the cost of winning the victims would be much lower. You can even give them food without money, and they would be willing to follow.&1t;i>&1t;/i>

The specific amount will change at different times and situations, so I am really not easy to say. In fact, when the imperial court's disaster relief funds are allocated and the business is unexpected, it is the best time to attract people. However, we don't know the current situation of the imperial court, so we can only try to attract people before the imperial court's disaster relief funds are allocated."

Hu Yinglong said this, it was really not a fool to try to get money or something. These are real situations. The initial situation can be called the panic stage. The panic stage can attract people, but these people are not desperate yet, so the cost of attracting people is slightly higher. The stage of allocating disaster relief funds is called the hope stage. At this time, everyone still has hope for the court and believes that the court can save them, so they don’t care much about the enlistment of others. Everyone still hopes to get the disaster relief funds, then go home and settle down again. However, if there is a problem with the disaster relief funds, or they have not received them at all, they will enter the final stage of despair. At this time, the requirements will be lowered a lot. Just give them the stutters and they can’t starve to death.&1t;i>&1t;/i>

This is the way for human hearts to change.

"You think very comprehensively. It seems that I am really right. Let's do this. I will first allocate 500,000 taels of silver for you, and then you will call all the food in your hands, and as much as possible to attract people. Anyway, there is a lot of land overseas, and the small countries overseas have no means of resistance. If you attract more people and get more weapons, you will be able to capture it soon. There is no need to worry about not having enough land. The 500,000 taels of silver is mainly used before the court's disaster relief.

I hope to attract hundreds of thousands of people.

Whether it is male, female, old or young, you should try to choose younger ones, older and skilled ones.

After that, if the disaster relief is smooth, then forget it. If the disaster relief is unfavorable, I will find a way to allocate a batch of food for you. Remember to monitor the situation there in time. I am far away from the capital, so I can only know how much disaster relief money has been allocated, but how much can be implemented specifically, I know it is not as fast as yours."&1t;i>&1t;/i>

With more than ten million yuan in his hands, more and more people in his hands, more and more land, Qiaomu's ambitions are getting bigger and bigger. Capital needs to be protected by force. Capital without force is like a piece of bright fat. Anyone can take a bite. Qiaomu is not willing to return to the wealth he has finally saved and be divided by others, so it is necessary to make some preparations in advance, accumulate force and build the final way out.

Besides, this feeling is pretty good.

It feels like a business growth game.

Of course, it is much harder to do these things when you are actually doing them than to play. The game only needs to click OK and click OK. At most, you can spend some money. But there are too many things to consider in reality. Everything else is easy to handle, and technical funds and other things are easy to handle. The most difficult thing to understand and control is the hearts of the people. Qiao Mu has suffered many losses in the hearts of the people in the past world and has also learned how to use people. But even so, she cannot guarantee that she can see accurately every time she looks at people, and she cannot guarantee that her subordinates will not betray anything. She can only consider it as much as possible.

"Okay, old lady, it should be no problem to attract 500,000 taels to 100,000 people. However, old lady, do you want to establish a country overseas when doing this?

Or do you want to do something?"

Hu Yinglong was quite excited. Of course, he was not angry. He thought that if the old lady really wanted to establish a country overseas, with his contribution over the years, he could have a good position. Although he might just be an official from a small overseas country, that was not an official.
