Chapter 166

In the territory of Yicun, the loading and preparation of the five sea-going ships going to Yancheng took five days. Finally, they were ready. Qu Mao selected 20 sailors with a loyalty of more than 80 for each sea-going ship and converted them to freedom.

civil.

At the same time, each ship has prepared 10 first-level sailors, 5 second-level ship shooters, and 2 third-level jump soldiers. The navy in the Yicun territory has also accumulated a certain number for a long time, including 71 first-level sailors.

, 36 second-level ship shooters, and 17 third-level jump soldiers.

At present, the army in the Yicun territory, except for the third-level princess guard, which is mostly composed of free civilians, the other troops are all composed of subordinate citizens. Regarding the army, Qu Mao believes that subordinate citizens are more reliable.

Early that morning, not even the morning light came out, it was probably around 4 o'clock in the morning. Qu Mao, Sunan, and Ma Fei Terrani, who had been dragged out from the library, used the lighthouse's microscopic light to

Light, hoist anchor and sail, and sail towards Yancheng.

The wind direction has changed recently, and it's not entirely smooth sailing to Yancheng. Qu Mao doesn't know how long it will take to get to Yancheng.

After sailing for a full day, in the evening of that day, before the sun had completely disappeared from the sea level and the afterglow of the sunset was completely swallowed up by darkness, the fleet led by Qu Mao finally arrived at Yancheng Port.

After the flag signal was announced, Jack Twain personally went to the dock to greet him and once again allocated Pier 3 to Qu Mao’s fleet.

After getting off the boat, Sunan quietly took out 10 gold coins. Without even preparing the gold coin bag, he quietly stuffed it into Jack Twain's hand. Sunan smiled and said: "Captain Jack, it's getting late today. I'll give it a try tomorrow night."

I want to treat you to dinner, but I wonder if you would be willing to honor me?"

Jack Twain calmly stuffed the gold coins into his belt and said: "Brother Qu Sheng, are you having an affair with me again?

We are all brothers, why are you so polite?

You have been wandering at sea for more than two months. Of course, I invite you as a brother to pick up the wind and wash away the dust for you. You are welcome. If you are polite, you don't treat me as a brother. See you tomorrow night."

Qu Mao arranged for the sailors on five sea-going ships to have a holiday. After becoming free citizens, the sailors had money on hand. According to the practice in the continent of hegemony, the sailors had a holiday and the sea-going ships were guarded by the navy.

As for Mafi Terrani and his four friends, Qu Mao gave them a holiday and allowed them to return to their own homes. Qu Mao did not force the whole family to move to Yi Island.

Jack Twain looked at Muffy Trani with some doubts, because Muffy Trani's golden hair was very conspicuous.

Qu Mao came over and said: "Captain Jack, I have to thank you for selling these five slaves to me last time. They are considered good talents. I have appointed him as the assistant of my brother Qu Sheng, mainly traveling around Yancheng.

Wire."

Jack Twain smiled proudly and said: "Sir, the slave I sold you is of good quality. If you still need it, I will catch it for you."

Qu Mao also laughed a few times and said, "Batalion Commander Jack, you are indeed good.

I'm afraid we have to make a large purchase this time, especially young and beautiful female slaves. In our Mughal Empire, female slaves here in Yancheng are very in demand..."

Jack Twain smiled understandingly and rolled his eyes a few times, but Qu Mao and Sunan had already said goodbye to him and walked towards the inn in Yancheng Port.

The next day, after Su Nan made an appointment with Jack Twain on the time and place for dinner, he rented a carriage and headed to Yancheng.

When they arrived in Yancheng, Sunan took Qu Mao around again and came to a secret material storage point. Qu Mao moved all the materials from the secret material storage point into his backpack.

Then Qu Mao and Sunan took the small card that the supplier left for Qu Mao last time and went from house to house to order some supplies, including furniture, tools, seeds, etc.

In the sundry store, Qu Mao had a good chat with Jerry Chen, the owner of the sundry store, and entrusted Jerry Chen to purchase some general iron tools on his behalf.

Jerry Chen smiled so hard that his eyes narrowed into thin slits, and he said: "Sir, don't tell me that you transported it away in two times, even if you transport it away in ten times, I can handle it for you.

I will help you purchase the first batch of iron tools and deliver them to Pier 3 no later than the afternoon of the day after tomorrow, and ship them for you free of charge."

Qu Mao smiled and said: "Okay, thank you first.

Jerry, if we have a happy cooperation, there will be more opportunities for cooperation in the future."

Jerry Chen smiled and said: "Sir, the amount of the goods you purchased this time is relatively high. I wonder if you can increase the advance payment by 10?"

Without thinking, Qu Mao directly took out two gold coins and said: "In addition to the down payment, two more gold coins are given, which is equivalent to the advance payment of 30. Jerry, are there no other problems this time?"

Jerry Chen took the gold coins and said quickly: "Sir, that's enough. It's absolutely enough. Please don't worry. I will never delay your shipment.

The supplies purchased are very cheap, they are nothing more than some fruit saplings, grain seeds, living tools, and pasture seeds, which do not cost much.

It’s books, I’ll help you purchase 300 volumes first.”

Qu Mao nodded and said, "Okay, just watch. If you don't have enough money, just tell me. But I hope it's fast, because our second fleet will only arrive a week later.

By the way, I may also come up with some goods this time. I wonder if Jerry knows where to sell them..."

Jerry Chen's eyes suddenly started to show caution again, and he said: "Sir, what goods do you want to sell? Let's see if there is anything I can do to help."

Qu Mao smiled and said: "It's just some animal skins and some blank rune stones. They are not valuable things."

Jerry Chen looked a little embarrassed and said: "Of course, if there are not many adults, it will be easier to handle the villains.

The size of the animal skin mainly depends on the skin. It is sold in bulk in Yancheng, and the price ranges from dozens of copper coins to dozens of silver coins. If it is only a few gold coins, a villain can eat an adult's.

But if the quantity is large, I’m afraid no one will be able to eat it for a while.”

Qu Mao thought for a while and said: "Jerry, what if I sell you an average of dozens of copper coins for each animal skin? Are you considering winning it? There are only more than 300,000!"

Jerry Chen was shocked at first, and then said with a bitter look on his face: "Sir, I don't have enough money, unless I mobilize funds from other cities, but it will take at least a month to get back and forth.

I'd better help you find a home."

Qu Mao smiled and said, "That's fine. If the quantity is smaller in the future, I'll sell it to you."

Jerry Chen's eyes lit up again and he said with a smile: "Okay, thank you sir for taking care of me. I have to go to the Magic Guild to purchase the blank rune stone. Please wait patiently at Yancheng Port. This afternoon or

Tomorrow afternoon I will take the businessman to negotiate with the Lord."

Qu Mao nodded.
