Until the end, Jin Feng did not ask about the candidate for the position.
In fact, he wanted to let Zheng Chiyuan appoint himself, but considering the great significance of this department and the development of shipbuilding technology, Jin Feng decided to leave the appointment of the candidates to the Ninth Princess and the Privy Council for discussion to avoid a small hill.
Take control of a department's situation.
Zheng Chiyuan didn't decide on a candidate, and he took this into consideration, so when Jin Feng didn't mention it, he didn't mention it at all.
After explaining some details to Zheng Chiyuan, Jin Feng left the navy camp.
I originally wanted to go to the dock to see how the workshop was being prepared, but as soon as I walked out of the naval camp, I met Zuo Feifei who had returned from the seaside.
"Sir, I'm going to find you."
Zuo Feifei jumped off the horse.
"What's wrong?" Jin Feng asked.
"We've found a drying site, I'll discuss it with you," Zuo Feifei replied.
"So fast?" Jin Feng asked.
Zuo Feifei didn't go out until dawn. It was only half morning and she had already found a location for the drying area, which made Jin Feng feel a little hasty.
"According to the requirements you mentioned, sir, the drying site needs to be large, with good ventilation conditions, and not too far from the seaside. I just rode my horse and ran along the beach here in Yuxi Town twice, and only found two suitable places.
place."
Zuo Feifei replied: "One is Qujiawan Beach to the south of the dock, and the other is the Golden Beach to the north. Sir, come with me to have a look. Once you decide on a place, I will arrange for people to clean up the place."
"good!"
Kelp is related to the future stability of Jiangnan and even Dakang and the food and clothing of the people. It is the most important thing for Jin Feng now. Hearing this, he immediately gave up the idea of going to the dock and asked his guards to bring the horses and followed Zuo Feifei for a spin.
After seeing Qujiawan and Golden Beach, Jin Feng also had some difficulties.
The water outside the Golden Beach is deeper, and the navy's warships can dock. In the future, a dock can be built specifically for freight, without having to compete with the shipyard for dock space.
Moreover, Golden Beach is not far from the shipyard and the warehouse set up by the Jinchuan Chamber of Commerce in the East China Sea. For the time being, you can borrow the warehouse of the Chamber of Commerce to store kelp.
The disadvantage is that the venue area is a bit small, and Jin Feng is worried that too much kelp will be shipped back later and cannot be dried.
The site in Qujiawan is flatter and larger, and the seaside is also suitable for parking boats. However, there is no warehouse of the Jinchuan Chamber of Commerce nearby. If the drying yard is built in Qujiawan, a warehouse must be built at the same time.
"I'm afraid it's too late to build a warehouse now. Let's put the drying site in Jinshatan first. In the future, there will be more kelp picked, and the space in Jinshatan is not enough, so we will build another one in Qujiawan!"
Jin Feng thought about it again and again and made a decision.
"I think so too," Zuo Feifei nodded: "In that case, I will start arranging to clear the site and recruit workers."
"Okay," Jin Feng said, "This matter is very important. If you encounter any problems, you can come to me."
"I understand," Zuo Feifei said, "It's just that I may be quite busy recently, and I'm afraid I won't be able to protect my husband..."
"It's okay, there's still a hammer." Jin Feng rubbed Zuo Feifei's hair: "Don't worry about me. If I want to go out, I will find Chunni."
Chuni is the vice-captain of the women's team this time. Normally when Zuo Feifei is away, she is in charge.
Zuo Feifei felt relieved when she heard Jin Feng say this.
It was already noon. Now that they had determined the address of the drying yard, the two of them rode back together.
Back at the dock, Runniang had already prepared lunch and was waiting for them.
Lunch was still mainly kelp, but this time it was all cooked by Runniang alone, without Jin Feng’s help.
It must be said that Runniang was very talented and attentive in cooking. The seaweed soup she made was extremely delicious. Jin Feng drank several bowls of it without even eating much.
He didn't sleep well last night. After lunch, Jin Feng took a brief nap and went into the study when he woke up.
Whether it is the discovery of kelp or the establishment of a marine management authority, it is very important to Dakang. Jin Feng must tell the Ninth Princess about this as soon as possible.
This is not only the most basic respect for the Ninth Princess, Jin Feng also wants to hear the Ninth Princess's opinion.
In addition, Jin Feng also wrote letters to Guan Xiaorou, Tang Dongdong, Mancang and others.
What was given to Guan Xiaorou was a pure family letter, and what was given to Tang Dongdong and Mancang were work letters, which also included detailed drawings of the netting machine.
Write all the letters and give them to Iron Hammer, and he will arrange for a speedboat to be sent back to Sichuan.
After doing this, Jin Feng hurried to the dock again.
Jin Feng and Hong Taoping spent the next two days in the dock.
Others are not idle either, they all have their own things to be busy with.
On the morning of the third day, Jin Feng had just gotten up and had not had time to have breakfast. Tie Hammer hurriedly came to report that Zheng Chiyuan was waiting to see him in the study.
With Zheng Chiyuan's emotional intelligence, if it wasn't an urgent matter, he would never come here early in the morning.
Jin Feng immediately realized that there should be news from the bandit suppression team, and quickly turned around and went to the study.
Sure enough, as soon as he entered the study, Zheng Chiyuan came up to him and said excitedly: "Sir, there is news! There is news!"
"General Zheng, don't worry." Jin Feng saw that Zheng Chiyuan's lips were peeling, so he picked up the teapot and poured him a glass of water: "Drink some water before we talk."
"Thank you sir!" Zheng Chiyuan quickly bent down and took the tea bowl.
Jin Feng watched Zheng Chiyuan finish the tea in one breath, and then asked: "When did the news come back?"
"At nine o'clock in the morning," Zheng Chiyuan replied.
"What was the result?"
"Report sir, great victory!"
Zheng Chiyuan excitedly took out two envelopes from his sleeves and held them in front of Jin Feng with both hands: "This is the battle report from the front line. Please take a look at it, sir!"
Jin Feng didn't hesitate and quickly took the envelope.
The two battle reports were written by the navy commander and the escort commander respectively, and the contents were similar.
The pirates never thought that the navy would go deep into Maolang Island to attack them. The pirates only reacted when the escort pilot took the airship to the sky above Maolang Island.
Seeing that the airship could not be attacked at high altitudes and could only be bombed below, the pirates wanted to board the ship and escape.
Unfortunately, when the airship took action, the speedboat had already blocked Maolang Island. Moreover, the airship did not attack the pirates immediately, but threw grenades and kerosene jars from high altitude, destroying the two rows of pirate ships closest to the shore.
Without the ship, the pirates had no way to escape and were completely trapped on Maolang Island.
Then airships and hot air balloons began carpet bombing.
Pirates are far more cruel than bandits, and they often commit heinous acts of massacre of villages. Therefore, Jin Feng and Zheng Chiyuan have exactly the same attitude towards pirates - whether they are foreigners or fishermen pretending to be Dakang fishermen, destroy them all!
The airship and more than a dozen hot air balloons bombed for a whole day and night, almost all the grenades and kerosene pulled from the warship were destroyed, and the bombing ended!
