Chapter 49 Distribution and Preparation

November 7th ([-] o'clock)
After Liu Xinqi had breakfast in the cafeteria, Liu Xinbao came over and reported to Liu Xinqi.

"I took my team members and spent seven days exploring the coast more than thirty miles east and west of Penglai Port and found three very suitable places."

"Tell me more about it." Liu Xinqi asked.

"Let's talk about the first place first. To the west of Penglai Port, about thirty miles away, there is a place called Sunxu Village. Most of the people in the village have the surname Sun or Xu. It is a large village with more than [-] people. Most of the village makes a living by fishing, and a small part does maritime trade. There is very little land around the village that can grow crops." Liu Xinbao replied: "This village has built a private port, which can dock ships of less than [-] stone. Twenty ships.”

"You continue." Liu Xinqi said. There were already people in this place, and it would be very troublesome if they intervened.

"The second place is the closest to Penglai Port. It is located about fifteen miles east of Penglai Port. Its name is Wanzikou. It is also a private port. This private port has a small river flowing into the sea and there is plenty of fresh water, so a large lake is formed at Wanzikou. The market here is a port that focuses on trade, and many maritime merchants will do preliminary transactions here before coming to Dengzhou."

"Are there unclaimed tidal flats near these two places?" Liu Xinqi asked.

"Yes, there are large areas of unclaimed tidal flats within five miles nearby." Liu Xinbao replied.

"What about the third place?"

"The third place is the farthest. It is on the coast forty miles east of Penglai Port. It is called Baishiwan. There are no existing villages or ports on the shore. There is a Songjia Village about two miles away from the shore. But the coast of this bay is not It is very high, and the water depth on the shore varies from shallow to deep. The shallow part is only one foot, and the depth is more than two feet. It is very suitable for building a port." Liu Xinbao replied: "There are tidal flats on both sides of the bay. This Baishi Bend and the tidal flats on both sides They are all ownerless.”

"Okay, I have nothing to do today. You can take me for a brief run around these three places." Liu Xinqi replied.

After three days of running in, the three captains and the soldiers have basically become familiar with each other and can now go to sea to practice independently without Liu Xinqi following them.I went to see Liu Zhimu last night. It will take another day to make food stamps and the distribution will start tomorrow. Today is a rare free time.

After briefly tidying up and bringing some dry food and water, Liu Xinqi and Liu Xinbao headed towards Sunxucun in the west, one person and two horses.

……

It took a day, and he changed horses once when he returned to Penglai Port. Finally, before dark, he briefly looked at the three alternative locations. After looking at the three locations, Liu Xinqi basically had a good idea. However, The most important thing now is to go to Laizhou to buy coal. The matter of buying land and building a fort can only be put on hold for the time being.

After dinner, Liu Xinqi found Liu Lisheng and Zhou Xinyuan to talk in his room in the Liu family warehouse.

Liu Xinqi first described to the two of them in detail the three places they visited during the day, and then said to Liu Lisheng: "The food stamps will be distributed tomorrow morning, and I must set off at noon to try to get to Laizhou Port before dark the day after tomorrow. It will be troublesome then. Third Master, after distributing the food stamps, go to Luo County Lieutenant and ask him to take you to see Jiang Zhubo. First, explore the cost of buying land in these three places. When I come back, I will discuss it with Wuzhi County. talk."

"Okay, leave it to me." Liu Lisheng replied.

"The distribution of food stamps has been arranged and prepared by the teacher recently. The teacher will also preside over it tomorrow. I can just watch from the side." Liu Xinqi said to Zhou Xinyuan. "Okay, but you still have to read the announcement. You must be the patriarch of Liujiabao." Zhou Xinyuan said.

"Okay, I'm familiar with the announcement tonight, so I don't mispronounce it and make a joke." Liu Xinqi replied.

……

November 8th ([-] o'clock)
In the large courtyard in the middle of the Liu Family Warehouse, all the families in Liu Family Fort were basically present. At least one person from each family came, and there were more than 200 people present. A simple small platform was set up on the north side of the large courtyard, measuring one foot square. Tall man.

When Liu Xinshi reported to Liu Xinqi that all the families had arrived, Liu Xinqi walked out of the door behind the stage and stood on the stage.

Seeing Liu Xinqi standing on the stage, the people below gradually stopped talking, and the scene gradually became quiet.

Liu Xinqi said:
"Since October [-]st, Liujiapu has embarked on the road of migration. Until now, everyone has been very united. I would like to thank you again for your trust and support along the way. I, Liu Xinqi, will definitely fulfill the vow I made before. Migration Before starting, in order to maximize the use of the clan's resources, I collected the food stored in everyone's homes. Now Liujiabao has initially settled in Dengzhou. From now on, I will step by step increase everyone's trust and dedication tenfold or a hundredfold. Give it back to everyone.”

"Now I will announce the 'details of the Liujiabao food stamp system'."

"The 'Liujiabao Internal General Food Stamps' is to cope with Liujiabao's current shortage of money and materials and the fact that food can only be purchased from outside, so that Liujiabao can allocate resources to the clan members in a planned way. clan members can use food stamps in the Liu family The Fort Warehouse can be used to exchange grain and other supplies with the same face value..."

Liu Xinqi read to everyone the announcement made by Zhou Xinyuan. The announcement detailed the reasons for using food stamps, the ways and scope of using food stamps, the amount of food stamps distributed by Liujiabao, and the monthly salary system that has been formulated and determined.

After reading the announcement in his hand, Liu Xinqi continued to say to everyone: "Maybe there are very few food stamps issued this time. Compared with the original Liujiapu, everyone's quality of life must have dropped significantly, but I, Liu Xinqi, Once again, I assure you that this is just the beginning. I, Liu Xinqi, will definitely make the lives of my people better and better in the future, making the Liu Family Fort stronger than before and never being bullied again. Please wait and see."

After finishing speaking, without waiting for the tribesmen below to speak, Zhou Xinyuan was called directly to the stage. After presiding over the distribution of food stamps, Liu Xinqi walked into the room behind the stage alone.

Listening to the noise and noise outside, Liu Xinqi felt a little frustrated. He had been in this world for a long time, but Liujiabao was not developing very fast, and the people under his command were still on the verge of food and clothing.

Until now, it is not certain whether the previous migration plan was correct, because when the quality of life of the tribe does not exceed the quality of the previous life in Liujiapu, it cannot be proved that Liu Xinqi's migration plan is correct.

The food stamps have been packaged before, one for each family, and there are distribution details in the bag containing the food stamps, so the distribution speed is very fast.Thanks to the all-member clan system of Liujiabao ancestors, Liu Xinqi can implement his ideas more carefully and quickly without having to explain each one verbally.

Before dark yesterday, all four ships had been repaired and maintained. Last night, people had been arranged to load all the supplies needed for the voyage onto the ships, including grain, fresh water, vegetables, beans, horse grass and ten horses. .

Now the soldiers, Liu Lisheng and Liu Lizhen have gone to Penglai Port to recruit ordinary sailors, hoping to set off at noon. Penglai Port is not far from Dengzhou Port. It is only [-] miles to sail along the coastline. If things go well, the fastest is five You can come back in [-] days. Even if something delays you, it won't take more than ten days.Therefore, it is not difficult to recruit people for a short boat trip.
