When soldiers open the way, there will naturally be no obstruction.
In fact, there was no need for them to get close. From a distance away, the workers on the dock and the merchants voluntarily stepped aside, and then stretched their heads to look at this group of uninvited guests.
As for some people on the dock who were not very clean, they felt a little guilty when they saw this scene, muttering that they were here to catch them, right?
Seeing that the situation was not good, one by one, they immediately rubbed oil on their soles and fled.
Xiao Han even saw a guy who either couldn't hide or lost his mind. He jumped off the ferry in a panic, causing a big splash on the water.
Now, not only the duck prophet knows that the water in Chunjiang River is warm, but this person probably also knows about it...
"Tsk, tsk, I bet that if we catch this guy, we will definitely be able to uncover a few unsolved cases."
If Xiao Han was the governor of Luoyang at this time, he would definitely be happy to send people down to pick up that idiot and torture him to see if he could win the title of White Face and Half Bao Qingtian.
But now, Xiao Han thinks it is more important to take a look at his ship first.
He jumped off the carriage and turned back to catch Xue Pan. Before the two of them could stand firm, an excited shout came from the ship.
"Master Hou! Master Hou, you are here!"
Along with the shouting, a fat body staggered down from the wooden ladder in the middle of the boat.
Yang Kai had some trouble climbing the ladder, but there was nothing he could do about it because the ship was too big!
Other boats docked at the pier can be used as bridges by connecting a few wooden planks together, but not this one!
Too high! Even without the tall ship building, the bare deck would be two stories higher than the dock!
If he really wanted to lay the planks, he didn't need Xue Pan to ask him. Yang Kailue could just step into the water and keep company with that idiot just now.
"Yang Kailue? Why are you... so fat?"
Under the boat, Xiao Han's eyes widened when he saw the unfamiliar figure with a hint of familiarity, and it took him a long time to recognize that it was Yang Kailuo.
"Master Hou, you miss me so much!"
Not hearing Xiao Han's voice saying he was fat, Yang Kai climbed down from the ladder in a hurry. When his feet touched the ground, he immediately ran over wiping his tears. Old Dong who was following him rolled his eyes and almost rolled his eyes.
: "Bah! Flatterer!"
"Swipe, swipe, swipe..."
Seeing that Yang Kailuo was about to rush in front of Xiao Han, several shining steel knives stepped in front of Xiao Han.
That little bit of cold light frightened Yang Kai, like a frightened rabbit, and he jumped away hastily.
"you……"
Looking at the steel knives in front of him in shock and anger, the white hair on Yang Kailuo's back was sweating!
If I had rushed faster just now, I might have lost a few pounds of fat!
"Put the knife away, put the knife away, we are all our own!"
The soldier's blade was swung too fast and suddenly! Even Xiao Han didn't even react. It wasn't until he saw Yang Kai jump away that he slapped his head and shouted to stop.
I don't know where Cheng Yaojin selected these people for him. After hearing Xiao Han's words, he put the sword back into its sheath without any hesitation and continued to stand there like a pillar without even asking a question.
.
"Master Hou, what are you..."
Looking eagerly at the soldier sheathing his sword, Yang Kailue also lost his initial excitement and asked Xiao Hangong.
Xiao Han looked at the expressionless soldiers around him, touched his nose, and said helplessly: "It's okay! This is a friend who heard that I was in danger and sent him here to protect me. He's not very familiar with it."
"Danger?" A trace of surprise flashed in Yang Kailuo's little eyes, "What danger? Who dares to do harm to you, Lord Marquis?"
Xiao Han gave a bitter smile, not wanting to say anything more on this issue, so he pointed at the old Dong who had been silent: "Stop talking about this, Old Dong, how are you doing?"
Dong Chengfei, the former general of the Jiangdu Shipbuilding Department met Xiao Han again. He had prepared a lot of things to say in his heart, but when he came to his lips, he only had one sentence left: "Excuse me, Lord Marquis. I'm thinking of you. Everything is fine."
"Ahem, he is quite good! The whole family has now arrived in Hanzhong, and there are a few good and clever children who are attending private schools, preparing to obtain academic honors in the future."
Perhaps because he was a little jealous that Xiao Han asked Lao Dong whether he asked him or not, Yang Kailuo couldn't help but interrupt.
However, even if he didn't say anything about this matter, Xiao Han actually knew that, after all, he had entrusted his eldest son, Sun Wuji, to handle it in the first place.
Nodding, Xiao Han raised his eyes again and looked at the big boat parked quietly by the river.
Despite its size, it is still far from the ships of later generations.
But Xiao Han also knew that in today's Tang Dynasty, being able to build this big ship was enough to prove Lao Dong's craftsmanship.
"Let's go up and have a look!"
After patting Dong Chengfei on the shoulder, Xiao Han didn't say much nonsense, raised his legs and walked towards the ship. Behind him, Xue Pan, who had been waiting impatiently for a long time, naturally followed closely.
It took a lot of effort to get on the boat. The ladder was shaky when I climbed it, and it felt like it would break at any time.
It made Xiao Han scold Yang Kailue in his mind while climbing. Why don't you know how to make a retractable staircase? If you fall into the water, let's see how to deal with you!
After getting on the boat without any danger, Xiao Han stood on the deck and looked around. It didn't look as big as it looked from below.
After all, you don’t know the true face of Mount Lu, just because you are in this mountain.
"Those people are on board, is the ship about to leave?"
Just when Xiao Han climbed onto the deck, not far below the boat, the talkative boy looked at his boss with a hopeful look on his face.
"Perhaps." The middle-aged man nodded absently, but his brows furrowed involuntarily: "Master Hou? That young man? No way, such a young Master Hou?"
Not knowing that his ship had blocked the way of many people, Xiao Han immediately began to look at the big ship with great interest after boarding the ship.
The boat is very new, and the smell of the newly painted tung oil has not dissipated. Especially inside the cabin, the smell of wood is mixed with the smell of tung oil. I can't say whether it smells good or bad.
"Master Marquis, your room is here!"
He trotted to a room diligently, Yang Kai opened the door slightly, and made a gesture of invitation to Xiao Han behind him with a smile on his face.
"No rush, I'll take a look at something else first." Xiao Han waved his hand casually and opened the door closest to him.
"Hmm? Empty?"
"Still empty?"
"Why is it also empty?"
Opening several doors one after another, Xiao Han was surprised to find that there was nothing inside. Just as he was wondering, he suddenly saw the extremely luxuriously decorated room in front of Yang Kailue.
The spacious bed, the floor covered with thick Persian carpets, and the walls hung with calligraphy and paintings that Xiao Han couldn't understand. This decoration was even more luxurious than Xiao Han's home in Sanyuan County.
