Chapter 72 Conscience is gone, you can earn more

"We can land on the island in half an hour!"

Liu Mo turned his head from the mast railing and said happily: "Boatman, I am very satisfied with your ship. I will give you one or two silver taels later to express my gratitude."

"It's better to obey your orders than respect!" The boatman half-bowed and thanked: "Master, you are so generous. It's my blessing to be lucky enough to serve an adult like you!"

This boatman has a very heavy local accent and is said to have been living in Xiangshan Sea for decades, but this is the first time he has encountered a boat passenger like Liu Mo.

I was not here to play or fish, nor did I want to be a poor man who came here to survive in trouble, so I asked: "What are you doing for the Master here? I remember, you have already visited Gulan Island last time!"

"Come to the local owner!" Liu Mo quipped.

"Local master? Could it be that you are the one who came to buy the land last time!" The boatman was surprised, "This master is not a man who pours cold water. Your business cannot be done!"

"I, Liu Mo, never did something I was unsure of."

The boatman snorted coldly and stopped responding!

After about half an hour, Liu Mo led Zhao Da to the island again.

If you want to buy land in batches, you naturally have to find someone in charge of the island.

Before coming here, Liu Mo had already inquired that the person who was the real manager of Gulan Island was surnamed Sun, and the only name was Cheng. He was not a native of Gulan Island, but a commoner whose fathers moved here.

This time, Liu Mo did not bring out the approval documents of the prefect Jiang Lin in his hand as soon as he came up, but instead sought a visit in the name of doing business.

Sun Cheng.

Why do this?

Isn't this nonsense? Just give me a comment, and I will definitely suspect that you are using your power for personal gain. If you can't collect it, you will also gain an extremely bad reputation.

I brought the unique wines in Linyang City and made the sausages with antiseptic measures. I didn’t say anything when I met, and I invited Sun Cheng to have a meal first.

Like Donglai Island, there are no restaurants on Gulan Island, so a few people warmed up the food and started eating at Sun Cheng's house.

It is said that Sun Cheng's father is a pig slayer, and he smiles like a meat-cutting butcher.

"Some more?" Liu Mo asked him.

"I don't object," Sun Cheng said as he handed out the wine glass, with a slightly drunk face, "Of course I don't object. Is this really the best of wine, from Xiangshan?"

"Linyang City," Liu Mo made a gesture, and Zhao Daxing poured wine. There were only three of them in the small hall of Sun Cheng's house. "Sweet and mellow, fragrant, rare!"

After hearing this, Sun Cheng took another big mouthful. This man never sips lightly when drinking, and he was like a drunkard. Liu Mo noticed it as soon as he met.

"Yes, sweet and mellow! I don't know any description for a while. Mr. Liu, you are really knowledgeable. I guess you have fame and fortune, right?"

"I'm very happy that you think so...but I didn't get any fame and honor in the exam." Liu Mo said.

"Haha, thank you for Mr. Liu's fine wine." Sun Cheng was drinking a glass, "Back to the point, what business do you want to do here?"

"Buy land!" Liu Mo announced.

"Ah!" Sun Cheng squirted out, and the wine spilled on his chest. "You're the businessman you came to last time?"

“That’s right!”

Last time, Sun Cheng was not on the island, and another islander was received by Liu Mo.

"Young Master Liu, I'm afraid you'll have a waste of time again." Sun Cheng said. "We won't sell the land!"

"You can't discuss it?"

"This matter is unanswered!"

"Mr. Sun, you don't sell your own land, don't force it." Liu Mo said, "but other residents on the island..."

Sun Cheng directly interrupted Liu Mo: "No one can sell land. Mr. Liu, please give up this idea as soon as possible!"

Without giving Liu Mo the time to speak, he poured himself a glass of wine and drank it all in one go, "If there is nothing else, Mr. Liu, please come back!"

What a good guy, he turned his back on others!

"Is it a ban on the expulsion order?" Sun Cheng's actions aroused Zhao Da's dissatisfaction, "If you can't make a deal, you can be a friend, why are you so rude!"

"Sun is a rough man, he can't beat around the bush, don't be surprised!"

"Haha, it's really a pleasure!" Liu Mo laughed, "At this point, I just said it straight. Since I climbed Gulan Island for the second time, I, Liu, will definitely not let myself go empty-handed."

"What, do you want to force yourself to buy?" Sun Cheng thought to himself.

In his surprised gaze, Liu Mo continued to add: "To be honest, I am going to do an errand for Lord Huang of Jianglin Prefecture."

While saying that, he leaned into Sun Cheng's ear and whispered three keywords: "Sea Ban Order"!

Sun Cheng glanced at Liu Mo alertly, "What does this mean?"

Liu Mo glanced at Ambassador Zhao, and the other party quickly cooperated with the performance. He walked out of the door, pretended to look around, and after confirming that there was no one, he closed the door tightly.

"Some years ago, due to the war, Jiang Linfu implemented a 'sea ban'. Now that the scattered horses are stopped, this 'sea ban' has not been lifted for a long time. Do you know why?"

Sun Cheng frowned and shook his head subconsciously.

"Because the enemy country has been ready to move, there are signs of provoking war! For this reason, the ban on the sea has not been lifted." Liu Mo said softly.

"So we must keep the sea ban until we all starve to death?"

"No! Mr. Huang, the prefect of Jiang Lin, loves the people as much as his son, so he will naturally not let it go. However, this enemy country must be guarded against!" Liu Mo said with a smile, "So, a few days ago, I had written a letter to negotiate with Mr. Huang about this matter.

Lord Huang means to lift the ‘sea ban’ on some islands and allow them to fund other islands.”

"Which islands should be lifted?"

Liu Mo smiled coldly, took out the "ban lifting order", and told him, "You must never inform third parties about this matter, otherwise..."

When Sun Cheng heard this, his face became very ugly.

Don’t look at me with this kind of eyes. I, Liu Mo, are originally a businessman. Do you understand that you don’t have any traitors?

After thinking for a long time, Sun Cheng then spoke: "Mr. Liu, how much land do you need!"

Another big fish! Liu Mo laughed out loud, now he only needs to let Sun Cheng understand one truth.

"I can choose who can lift the ban, and let him continue to ban the sea!"

How much land should you take? The more you get better.

How much money is it? It’s very simple. I’ll send you a hundred and eighty acres to make us happy first.

Labor? The requirements are not high, so I will give you hundreds of people to work for three years for free.

If you don’t want to cooperate? Then continue to enjoy the ban on the sea.

Capitalists sometimes have to be more ruthless.

There is a saying on earth that you can earn money if you lose money. If you lose your conscience, you can earn more!

What Liu Mo just now is true? Nonsense, of course nonsense.

However, the other party would definitely not dare to question his understanding of human nature.

First of all, Liu Mo had the approval document of the prefect seal on his hand, which was genuine.

Second, who would be full and be full, risk starving to death on the entire island and fight with the "official officer"!

The most important thing is that you won’t get any benefits when you tear up with Liu Mo!

Although he was resentful, Sun Cheng still gritted his teeth and agreed.

In order not to lose his bad reputation, Liu Mo fooled Sun Cheng to do everything.

What method is your business? In short, my conditions must not be missed.

After saying that, Liu Mo took Zhao Da away, leaving Sun Cheng with a miserable look on his face in chaos in the sea breeze.

Three or four days later, Sun Cheng brought the news and the matter was done!

As for how he did it, Liu Mo had no interest in knowing it.

The same is true!

With the first "sea salt processing factory", the second, the third, and the tenth one are next.

In the end, Liu Mo made a fuss for more than a dozen "official salt processing factories" with his mouth, plus islanders who were free to deal with illegal workers!

That's it, good things come one after another.

Not long after, the "Donglai Island New Salt Processing Factory" produced the first batch of exquisite fine salt.

In order to be on the safe side, Liu Mo immediately cooked dishes with new salt, and the islanders who were lucky enough to try it out were all amazing.

At this point, the new salt development work has been perfectly completed!

Time waited for no one. After everything was arranged, Liu Mo took Zhao Da back to Linyang.
Chapter completed!
