Having made up their minds, the fleet went ashore after arriving in Langya County.
There are many people living on the coast of Langya County, especially businessmen.
They didn't dare to get close to the salt fields, but they could go to other places. There were many kinds of fish and shrimps in the sea, and there were also a lot of sea vegetables. Ever since some people made money, businessmen flocked to the seaside.
Although the prices of seafood have dropped a bit nowadays, the profit margin in this field is still huge.
Of course, the happiest people are naturally the common people. The price of seafood has dropped, and they can occasionally buy some to try.
When we got ashore, Meng Yi and Gongzi Gao were already waiting there.
"Uncle Meng, are you not used to being here?" Zhao Qingrui chuckled when she saw that Meng Yi was a little tanned.
"It's fine here. Thank you for your concern, Your Highness." Meng Yi smiled. He has eaten countless fish since he came to the seaside. The fish he has eaten during this period is more than he has eaten in his entire life.
Although he was a little tired of it, he felt it was very good.
Since the salt field opened, a large number of workers were needed, and the source of these workers had to be recruited from the common people to work. The common people now had some money and their lives became better.
Nowadays, the price of cloth has dropped rapidly, which has greatly improved the lives of those people who were dressed in tattered clothes.
He felt very proud to see that Daqin was rapidly transforming and developing in a good direction under Zhao Qingrui's intervention.
"Uncle Meng, have you encountered any problems since you came to this salt field? If it is a technical problem, I can help think of a solution." Zhao Qingrui looked at Meng Yi with a smile in his eyes.
"There are some problems." Meng Yi nodded. This prescription was taken out by Zhao Qingrui, and she should know it best.
After hearing the questions Meng Yi raised, Zhao Qingrui had no idea what they were about. She could only search the system mall and found a book. She gave it to Meng Yi and asked them to study it themselves.
On Prince Gao's side, Ying Zheng also asked about matters concerning the dock.
He is personally responsible for the affairs here, and whenever his father asks, Gongzi Gao can handle it easily.
"Father, there are more and more merchants coming to Langya County now, and the construction of the dock here is often disturbed. Some people even want to know some secrets of refined salt from me." Gongzi Gao said helplessly.
As the number of merchants increased, the country's commercial taxes increased, but it also caused some obstacles to work on the coast.
"Qingrui, what do you think?" Ying Zheng looked at Zhao Qingrui.
"Little sister, do we need to stop this?" Gongzi Gao looked at Zhao Qingrui expectantly.
"Why should we stop it? I see a lot more shops on the beach. I think the official shopping mall of the Great Qin should be opened here. Also, we should set up city guards here to be responsible for the safety here. By the way, we should conduct random checks to see if anyone is selling fake goods and disrupting the market. If anyone violates the rules, it will also generate some income for the treasury of the Great Qin." Zhao Qingrui said lightly.
The corner of Ying Zheng's mouth twitched. This girl can only see making money?
However, when you think about it this way, it is indeed not bad. The things in the places that Zhao Qingrui set up are all good things, and they will definitely sell well here.
As long as he could make money for the national treasury, Ying Zheng immediately became motivated.
After a few people discussed it, they decided on this matter.
Zhao Qingrui was mainly responsible for coming up with ideas, while Ying Zheng and others were responsible for perfecting the details.
"The city guards my younger sister mentioned can be directly selected from the county garrisons. If they are appointed from the common people, I'm afraid they won't be able to control those merchants." Gongzi Gao said seriously.
"Sure, brother, you can go to the county magistrate in person to select personnel." Zhao Qingrui nodded with a smile.
"Uncle Meng will need to take care of the relevant commodity sales regulations." Zhao Qingrui handed the task of drafting the rules directly to Meng Yi. This matter was too complicated and she really didn't want to take care of it.
"Your Highness, don't worry. I will sort out the relevant regulations as soon as possible." Meng Yi said seriously.
After this matter was decided, Zhao Qingrui followed his father and went into the salt workshop.
Ji Rongan and Fang Yu also came over and reported to Zhao Qingrui about the affairs of the salt workshop during this period.
Seeing how the two of them managed all the affairs of the salt workshop in an orderly manner, Ying Zheng felt inexplicably envious. He didn't know how his daughter had raised such talented people.
And Mr. Zhao from Zhuangzi, he is even more curious now.
"Your Highness, both of them have done a very good job in the management of the salt workshop. The salt workshops in other counties are almost completed. I want to let them take charge of the management." Meng Yi said seriously.
To be honest, he was a little surprised by the abilities of these two people. It was totally unexpected.
"Yes, Daqin needs a lot of salt, and Ji Rongan and the others are familiar with it. Uncle Meng can train more manpower. We have many counties along the coast of Daqin, and Uncle Meng still needs to make decisions on these matters." Zhao Qingrui directly delegated the matter to Meng Yi.
The reason I asked Meng Yi to come here was because I trusted him.
"Yes." Meng Yi nodded and understood what Zhao Qingrui meant.
Compared to the first emperor who centralized power and took all the responsibilities on himself, Zhao Qingrui preferred to be the general leader and only needed to make decisions on the general direction.
Zhao Qingrui gave enough power to his subordinates. If they encountered someone with ulterior motives, such power would definitely allow them to do a lot of things.
However, there is no need to worry about such things. The institutions in the court are gradually improving. If there are people with ulterior motives, the Censorate will definitely kick them out of the team at the first opportunity.
After visiting the salt workshop, Zhao Qingrui had a clear idea of what was going on.
There are now hundreds of people from Guizhou working in the salt workshop. Zhao Qingrui feels very happy when he sees that the numb expressions on their faces are no longer there.
After returning to his residence, Ying Zheng glanced at Zhao Qingrui.
"You've given Meng Yi and the others a lot of power." He didn't say much when his daughter made the decision. Even if something happened here, he could solve it.
"What's the big deal? Uncle Meng and the others still need to take care of this place. Father, you are the king and you don't need to care about all the trivial matters." Every time this matter was mentioned, Zhao Qingrui couldn't help but complain.
The emperors in ancient times all thought about how to centralize power and only wanted to hold power in their hands, but human energy is limited, so how could they have so much energy to take care of those things?
In order to make things easier for yourself in the future and to prevent yourself from going bald so early, it is necessary to give up some of your rights.
"I did that for the sake of the Qin Dynasty. I don't want power to fall into the hands of outsiders." Ying Zheng glared at Zhao Qingrui.
"You don't feel tired. I just want to rest more. Father, please don't cause me any more trouble." Zhao Qingrui glanced at his father and saw that he obviously disagreed with this matter, so he didn't bother to correct him.
