The sky is clear and cloudless, and there are no waves in the sky.
The mountain is high and the ambition is high, and the sea is broad and the mind is broad.
The hunting sea breeze blowing on the body not only does not make people feel the slightest discomfort, but also makes people feel happy.
Seven or eight large ships cut through the waves with the help of the sea breeze, as cheerful as war horses returning from victory.
On the bow, several people were sitting together. These people were all about the same age, in their early thirties, and were wearing gray cotton clothes. The collar, cuffs, chest and other places were obviously the style of the clothes in Jiaofangsi, but the material was different.
That's it. Jiaofangsi's clothes are all silk and satin, but this is just cotton.
These people are obviously regular customers of Jiaofangsi, otherwise they would not be so obsessed with the style of clothes, and even find someone to cut clothes of the same style out of cotton and wear them.
"Guys, we have all been through adversity together. Here I propose that we drink water instead of wine." As he said this, he raised his hand to raise the water glass in front of him.
On a long-distance voyage, fresh water is more important than anything else. Therefore, unless there is too much fresh water to use up, no one will bring wine. Especially merchant ships like these, even if there is sufficient fresh water, they will use the remaining load on cargo, and
Not wine.
"Okay~"
Several people laughed and raised their glasses together, drinking it all in one gulp.
The taste of the water was not very good. After they resupplied at Anping Port for the last time, they never docked again. In the past few days, due to the temperature at sea, the fresh water had deteriorated somewhat and had a faint smell.
But fortunately, they can still accept it.
"What Dongjia He said is wrong. Not only are we in the same troubles, but we will also be rich and powerful together after we return to the capital."
As soon as the joking words fell, everyone burst into laughter again.
On this trip to the sea, they could see what gold is all over the place.
In the old port, there were groups of merchants waving gold and silver. As soon as a merchant ship from the Ming Dynasty docked, they would immediately besieged and blocked.
As long as there are goods from the Ming Dynasty, there is no need to worry about selling them. Those merchants want everything, whether it is tea, silk, or porcelain.
Even ordinary linen and cotton cloth are hot commodities in the Old Port.
When He Dongjia was complimented, he also touched his chin happily, as if what he just drank was wine instead of water.
"To be honest, this is our first time going overseas to do business, so I don't really know what to do."
As he said that, Dongjia He shook his head with emotion, "I used to think that overseas was a place where Japanese pirates were rampant, and it was extremely dangerous. I never expected that Japanese pirates would disappear in the entire Nanyang. And along the way, there were governors-general of the Ming Dynasty standing guard.
It’s peaceful. Our trip deep into Nanyang was smooth and uneventful. Even now, I feel like I’m in a dream.”
Dongjia He's words immediately resonated with the others, "Who says it's not the case? If I hadn't been too jealous of Fu Yong and the others to make a fortune, I wouldn't have been so stupid as to do this sea trade."
"What about now?" He Dongjia shook the water in the cup slightly with his right hand and asked with a smile.
"Now?" The man smiled and drank all the water in his hand, and said loudly: "From now on, we will only do sea trade, and no one can stop me."
"Hahaha~" Several people laughed in unison and pointed at this person with their fingers.
In fact, this is not what they have in mind. They have been to the sea and have seen gold and silver everywhere. It is simply impossible for them to go back to do needlework and thread business. This is like someone who has earned a small goal.
, how can I go work for someone else again?
After laughing, Dongjia He also said: "I am planning to go back this time. After selling the goods, I will get a few more ships and continue sailing to Nanyang. Fu Yong just has a little advantage over us. As long as Nanyang remains calm.
If we go down, we may not be inferior to him in the future."
Fu Yong now leads a fleet with more than a dozen large ships, which is naturally not what they can compare with.
But just as Mr. He said, the only difference between them and Fu Yong is that they missed the opportunity. If everyone started at the same time, they really wouldn't be afraid of Fu Yong. Everyone is a businessman who knows the basics, and no one knows who is.
ah?
They believe that the peace in Nanyang will not be short-lived.
The Ming Dynasty has now established nineteen governor's offices in Nanyang. Each governor's office is guarded by thousands of warriors. This means that the Ming Dynasty has tens of thousands of troops in Nanyang alone, and this does not include the Ming Dynasty.
Where is the teacher?
These people have been to various ports and have naturally heard how Han Du led the Ming Dynasty Navy in Nanyang and how they were invincible. Even when they heard about the fierceness, they wished they were there at that time, even if they were the vanguard of the navy.
OK.
"The Marquis of Zhenhai traveled thousands of miles and made the Japanese pirates frightened. This really boosted the reputation of the Ming Dynasty."
"Who says otherwise? If there was no Marquis of Zhenhai, among other things, the people occupying the city would not be so respectful to us."
Zhenhaihou Mansion.
An Qing's belly started to show that she was pregnant, and Han Du was holding her hand and walking slowly with her.
"Come on, there are steps here, so go slow. Come on, raise your legs, yes, put them down slowly, and be gentle with your steps."
An Qing tried his best to slow down, rolled his eyes at Han Du who was thinking in vain, and said dissatisfied: "Can you shut up? I'm so old, I don't need to be so cautious, right?"
"No." Han Du ignored the disgust in An Qing's eyes and said with a shameless smile: "You are a national treasure now, so you can't be too cautious."
An Qing walked to a pavilion and sat down with his hands on his waist, "Then I will just sit and won't go anywhere. You should be relieved, right?"
"That's not possible." Han Du shook his head like a rattle, "The more you move around now, the better it will be for you when you have a baby in the future. The better you move around, the easier it will be for you to give birth, no matter whether it's right or wrong.
You are still good for the children. Come on, let’s rest for a while and continue walking.”
Han Du worked tirelessly in the garden and walked with An Qing all afternoon.
But the next day, I hurried back to Shibo Division.
Without him, the merchant ship is back.
The return of merchant ships that go to sea means wealth. This is especially true for shipping companies.
After collecting the first sea trade tax, the City Shipping Department has not had any income for several months. In addition, Han Du has loose control over the officials of the City Shipping Department, resulting in the current situation in the City Shipping Department being lifeless.
appearance.
But the moment the Shibo Division received the news, the entire Shibo Division seemed to be resurrected, full of vitality. Officials at all levels shouting and hurriedly walking around were all working towards one goal.
Busy, that is, collecting taxes. The sky is clear and cloudless, and there are no waves in the sky.
The mountain is high and the ambition is high, and the sea is broad and the mind is broad.
