Ning Pengpeng had no idea about Ning Laosi's inner plan.
After all, she only gave him a thumbs up regarding Ning Laosi and Zhao Juan.
As for what will happen to them later, that is their business.
She is an old lady now, how can she care so much.
Children and grandchildren will have their own blessings, and living a comfortable life is the most important thing.
Thinking of spending large sums of money, before the navy, ships, and ports are built, the family will definitely not be able to get even half a copper.
At present, this is a bottomless pit.
Therefore, Ning Pengpeng only stayed in the mansion for two days, and couldn't help but go to live in the earth building over Yujiawan.
There should be more pearls this year than last year.
The technology for implanting bead nuclei is also much more streamlined than last year.
In this way, the survival rate of pearl clams is also much higher.
However, this time, people who have received the box of pearls before should not be allowed to think that these pearls are like cabbage. There are so many every year that they can be given away in a steady stream.
Things are rare and valuable, so the best way is to find the best ones from the pearls obtained this year and give them away individually.
So that those people know that this pearl does not come from an easy source.
Of course, the biggest and best one must still be kept in your own store as a treasure.
As for the previous one, Jiang Luochun can naturally find a way to hold an auction, and the highest bidder will get it.
In this way, you can also get some blood back to your family.
Over there, Cui Xiu went back and talked to Cui Qingyuan.
Cui Qingyuan slapped his thigh, oh my, why didn't he think of that!
Just because the old master doesn't want to leave his homeland, that doesn't mean his children, grandchildren, and apprentices don't want to either.
Although there will definitely be a gap in skills, but with children, grandchildren and apprentices here, can the master still be far behind?
Even if the master doesn't come, if something happens to Sun and his apprentice, they can always ask the master!
The more he thought about it, the more Cui Qingyuan felt that he had gone too far.
So, with a stroke of his pen, he wrote an extremely sincere letter and asked Cui Xiu to visit the master with gifts.
By the way, let the old master recommend his children, grandchildren or apprentices. Those who are willing to work here in Nanyue Prefecture will definitely be well rewarded.
Sure enough, just because the old master didn't want to stay away from his homeland, it didn't mean that his descendants and apprentices didn't want to make a name for themselves.
Moreover, there must be a brave man under the heavy reward, and soon someone came into contact with Cui Xiu.
However, Cui Xiu said that she respected the master's decision no matter what the other party suggested.
In other words, as long as the master agrees, he can say anything.
After learning what Cui Xiu meant, the pressure shifted to the master.
Thinking about his children, grandchildren and apprentices coming to persuade him, and his old wife also crying to him, no matter how famous he is, there will always be a time when he leaves.
When the time comes, who can the family rely on?
The old master thought about it, finally nodded, and gave Cui Xiu the list of descendants and apprentices who were willing to go.
He knew that with this nod of his head, he did not go to Nanyue Mansion.
However, if anything happens in Nanyue Prefecture, it will definitely be brought on yourself.
After all, if something happens to one of his descendants or apprentices, people will not say it is the fault of his descendants and apprentices, but put the fault on his head.
Even if he didn't want to be embarrassed, he had to take this shipbuilding project in Nanyue Prefecture seriously.
After all, this is the ship that the government wants to build.
Of course, this is a mixed blessing.
If his descendants and apprentices build the ship well, it will be their chance to become famous.
In order to prevent his descendants and apprentices from losing face, those who followed Cui Xiu back to Nanyue Mansion this time were the most proud descendants and apprentices of the old master. We must make them famous in one fell swoop!
Cui Qingyuan finally breathed a sigh of relief about the shipbuilding.
However, the matter of establishing a navy gave him another headache.
However, this matter did not bother him for a long time.
Before Cui Xiu returned to Nanyue Mansion with his shipbuilding masters, Cui Qingyuan had almost settled the matter of the source of troops.
There was no other reason, but Liu Hu went to Qingshi County and casually told Niu Ben, the magistrate of Qingshi County, about Master Futai of Nanyue Prefecture preparing to build a navy.
Upon hearing this, Niu Ben, the magistrate of Qingshi County, became interested.
Because of quarrying, almost all the young and old men in Qingshi County have tendons on their arms.
Even those women and children had a lot of strength in them.
Because building earth buildings in the past required a large amount of stone, Liu Hu often interacted with him.
However, the sale of this stone cannot be done more than once a year.
It was also the Ning family who built earth buildings, which required too many stones, which whetted Magistrate Niu's appetite.
After the Ning family's earth building was built and there was no order for this large amount of stones, it was not just the daily orders for buying and selling stones of three melons and two dates that made Magistrate Niu feel very uncomfortable.
Now that he got such news from Liu Hu, Magistrate Niu felt that his county lacked everything except these big men!
These men are strong and work a lot, but they also eat a lot.
Magistrate Niu was heartbroken to death when he thought about how much food they ate every day.
Now Master Futai wants to prepare to form a navy, so someone must be there!
If nothing else, if these people in their own county go to the Navy, are they still worried about not having enough to eat?
Therefore, without saying anything, Magistrate Niu came to Nanyue Prefecture the next day and came to see Mr. Cui Futai.
After the conversation, Magistrate Niu went back with satisfaction.
The common people in the county learned that Magistrate Niu asked them to join the navy.
At first, they were reluctant.
Later, I learned that if I went to the naval camp, I would not only have enough to eat, but I would also have money to take home every month. The elderly, wives, and children at home would no longer have to worry about not having money to buy food.
Moreover, my mothers-in-law are also good. Even if they go to the navy camp, they still have enough strength to go to the quarry to quarry stone and earn more money for the family.
The elderly at home only need to take good care of their children.
Thinking about it this way, everyone is full of expectations and hopes for the future.
If there is one, then there are two. When other counties saw almost all the young adults in Qingshi County, they all signed up to join the navy camp.
After further inquiry, I learned that the conditions given by Mr. Futai were really good.
Therefore, they also became excited.
Someone took the lead, and the troops naturally poured into Nanyue Fucheng in a steady stream.
Originally, a naval battalion had 500 people, but Cui Qingyuan was still worried about not being able to recruit people.
Now, this number has been directly exceeded.
Cui Qingyuan thought for a while and directly recruited a thousand people.
In this case, it is equivalent to two naval battalions, which can balance each other.
Also because the naval camp has recruited so many people, the number of ships that originally needed to be built would naturally have to be doubled.
Otherwise, what kind of navy would it be if it had troops but no ships?
