Li Yuanxing left Palembang, just as the ship was preparing to leave.
Li Lanshan asked from the side: "What if they fight?"
Fight? What to do if there is a fight?
Li Yuanxing did not answer. Facts proved that Li Lanshan's guess was correct. The day after Li Yuanxing left, the Goguryeo and Japanese purchasing teams had a large-scale fight. The reason was that the Japanese bought the agricultural market.
All the shrimps, big and small, were bought.
The Japanese need these shrimps because they want to use the original cans to make another batch of drowned shrimp meat.
The Goguryeo people need shrimp even more, because shrimp paste is a must-have delicacy in their lives.
The shrimps caught by the locals are far inferior to those caught by the Tang Dynasty ships, both in quantity and quality, because the Tang Dynasty ships can go around the Nanyang and continue south, where there are excellent shrimps.
There are small shrimps that are all transparent, and there are also huge super prawns that are red all over and weigh as much as a pound.
There was a fight and more than twenty people were injured.
When Li Yuanxing's ship passed by Luzon, information came from the radio station in Luzon.
The commander of the regiment of the Tang Dynasty hung up the Japanese and Goguryeo captain who was in charge of internal affairs and gave each of them thirty lashes. The squad leader in question was given a hundred lashes, and then he was locked up in a small dark room.
The leaders of the Japanese and Goguryeo troops were each fined one month's wages and imprisoned for three days.
This is public information.
Finally, there is a secret.
"Your Highness, the daughter of the wine shop family made a very powerful suggestion. Our group leader accepted it. That night, the group leader secretly sent a small jar of wine and a large red shrimp to the Japanese captain.
Then the man who was the daughter of the wine shop, the young man whom the Holy Father asked, secretly met with the Goguryeo captain and also gave him a jar of wine and a big red shrimp. According to the current information, the Goguryeo nobles and
The Japanese nobles are all preparing to go out to sea to catch shrimps. And they are big red shrimps!"
Li Yuanxing smiled: "Send someone to see that girl and tell her that there is a position for a female officer in the Imperial Security Department."
"Yes! Your Highness." Wu Yuanshuang gave a military salute and retreated.
"Why not allow artificial breeding of Australian...red shrimps!" Wu Zhao originally wanted to say "Austro-dragon", but changed her words. Because the word "dragon" cannot be used casually for such things. Even though she was named Princess of the Moon
, the Ministry of Etiquette can also give her a headache until she dies.
Li Lanshan said from the side: "Rise up the price of that thing and use a flying boat to transport it all at once. It can be sold at the same price as silver in Chang'an. The real natural thing is not only delicious. When Li Mo's fiefdom has some improvement.
Just go to Melbourne and eat red prawns.”
Li Yuanxing never spoke. Because the area where the natural Australian dragon lives, people will die.
Li Yuanxing was not interested in talking about these words.
Man dies for wealth, and bird dies for food.
People in the Tang Dynasty knew how to enjoy and eat it. Children from wealthy families knew the value of this thing after eating it once, and they also knew what price this thing could be sold for in Chang'an.
It is not as good as abalone and sea cucumber, but if you steam it whole and put it on the dining table, no matter in terms of taste or appearance, it will definitely be liked by the nobles of the Tang Dynasty. Let the Japanese and Goguryeo people fish it out, and it will cost dozens of coins per piece, or
After collecting hundreds of coins and transporting them to Chang'an, the selling price is two or three guans.
At least there are consistent benefits.
It was just some food. Li Yuanxing would not fight for these small profits as a poor soldier. After knowing the matter, he would not ask again.
In the next few days, the sergeants sent by the Tang Dynasty to guard the border suddenly discovered that they were not pitiful soldiers here, but noble nobles. Even the local nobles in Nanyang lowered their noble heads when they saw them.
.The badge of the Tang army is the symbol of their nobility.
The young man also understood why businessmen and rich men in Chang'an would marry their daughters to him.
When you come to Nanyang, with the military as your backer, you can create tens of thousands of dollars in value in one month.
Drills, training, and armed patrols every morning and evening. These are the daily tasks of the Tang Dynasty border guards, and that is all, to ensure their momentum and the majesty of the Tang soldiers. Even if there is a fight on the street, the armed patrols
The sergeants on the street would not even turn their eyes, thinking that fighting was a Japanese affair.
It is the Goguryeo people's business to control local people's tax evasion.
Tang businessmen would not evade taxes, nor would they dare to do so. Once they discovered that heavy penalties were light, no businessman could afford the penalty of being permanently banned from doing business overseas.
The long-distance telegraph on the ship finally lost its signal, and Li Yuanxing kept heading east, far away from the waters controlled by Datang.
Fortunately, the communication telegrams between ships will not be affected.
However, the people on the ship seemed to prefer to use the semaphore, the signal from the flagship: The Storm is in the vanguard position!
Originally, the leading ship was the armed merchant ship Seagull from Huating Port. Now it has been moved to the rear of the team, with the Biao Feng belonging to Dandong Military Port taking the leading position. The flagship Li Yuanxing is sitting on is actually the Tiande. The reason is only
One, because this boat is the only one whose interior layout is built in the form of a yacht.
It would be easier to retrofit the other ships than to replace this ship with a new steam engine.
The three princesses Li Yuanxing brought on board were Li Changying, Cui Yanyan, and Lu Qiuyu. The reason Cui Yanyan planned to follow was that her son's fiefdom was actually the exit of the Mediterranean. The Boling Cui family was currently in the middle of a full-fledged negotiation.
Whether it is for Li Chengqian or Li Ke, this position is a headache for these two princes.
Moreover, these two were not the only princes of the Tang Dynasty.
Those who are willing to cooperate, those who have conflicts of interest, how to build the business district, all the details can be figured out in less than half a year.
At the moment, the Bolingcui family is just waiting for the new ship to be launched, hauling a boat of silk and running to the Mediterranean. On the route, the only way to pass is the fiefdom of the Wang family in Taiyuan, Wang Yuyan's son, whether it is used as a supply port,
As collaborators, the two families, who already had a good relationship, naturally had to sit down and have a serious talk.
So Cui Yanyan followed Li Yuanxing out, firstly to get some experience, and secondly to ask for some advice from Li Lanshan and Wu Zhao.
Lu Qiuyu followed because her son's fiefdom has not yet been decided.
She is not in a hurry, and neither is the Lu family.
There must be, and this fiefdom cannot be escaped. But the location is very important. This not only affects the Lu family, but also affects the entire clan, as well as the interests of so many princes. So Lu Qiuyu also plans to marry Li Lanshan
Get closer to Wu Zhao and listen to the situation in the world.
Li Changying followed her out for only one reason. Because where Li Yuanxing was going was her son's fiefdom.
In the small living room, several women sat around the small table, eating fresh fish and sipping rice wine. Only Li Lanshan was sitting alone in the corner, holding a book in a daze. There was a photo in the book, and the photo was of a bird.
Crystal Skull. Women in the Tang Dynasty dared to kill people, but they may not dare to hold the skull in their hands.
The little girls were hiding far away, and the photo looked scary.
"What are you talking about?" Li Yuanxing came in from outside.
Wu Zhao picked up a chocolate ball: "I'm telling them, the real reason why you are going over there is that this delicious food is out of stock, so you must go there. There are countless raw materials there, you just need to transport them back
Chang'an, this thing is definitely worth gold in Chang'an!"
"Cocoa, this thing is local currency. It will also be a good thing to cause war in the future. However, we Tang people prefer tea. This can only be regarded as a snack." Li Yuanxing said with a relaxed face, and then pulled him over.
He sat down on the chair and said to Cui Yanyan: "It's very hard to come out. This time I have to walk 30,000 miles. Calculated by walking a thousand miles a day, it will take a month."
"Yanyan knows that the water at sea is very tight, so we should use it sparingly." Cui Yanyan immediately understood what Li Yuanxing meant.
"Yes!" Li Yuanxing nodded gently.
"I also want a fiefdom!" Wu Zhao suddenly said.
This attitude surprised many people. Why does Wu Zhao want a fiefdom? Give it to her or her son in the future. No matter what it is, Wu Zhao's fiefdom makes people nervous. Wu Zhao can give another fiefdom overnight.
Disappear. Whether by force or financial resources.
"Don't even think about it, that place will be reserved for my own vacation in the future."
"You're evil!" Wu Zhao bit into a piece of fish fillet and glared at Li Yuanxing fiercely.
Li Yuanxing also laughed: "However, we can stop there for a few days. It can be regarded as a kind of rest."
The princesses didn't know, but Li Yuanxing knew it, and so did Li Lanshan. Wu Zhao was definitely talking about Hawaii, which was indeed a great place for tourism, but there couldn't be any industry there, at most there were some sugar factories.
Real ocean-going cargo ships will not go there specifically.
One month is nothing for an ocean-going cargo ship.
The merchants of the Tang Dynasty traveled to and from the Western Regions for business, often only making one round trip every half a year, so a month of shipping was too short for the merchants of the Tang Dynasty. The only thing that made them nervous was not the loneliness, but the wind and waves in the sea.
.
We stayed in the beautiful Hawaiian Islands for three days, replenished fresh water and picked many fruits.
"The largest island here is called Honolulu. It is a volcano that can erupt at any time. This island is located right between our Tang Dynasty and America, so this island cannot be sealed to anyone. Many fruits on this island are more than
The ones from Nanyang are even more special, but be careful of the beasts on the islands.”
After three days, Li Yuanxing also sent people to check the eight big islands.
"Your Highness, there are people on this island. The number is very small, but they seem to be people from Luzon. Captain Su of the Windstorm estimates that they were blown here by the ocean current when they went out to sea. There is no one on our ship who can speak Luzon dialect, otherwise you can ask
." After Pei Xi inquired about it, he came over and reported to Li Yuanxing.
"Make a note of it, I will come again in the future."
When they went to sea again, Li Lanshan showed the photo of the crystal skull to Li Yuanxing.
"Well, don't worry about this yet!" Li Yuanxing did not dare to give an accurate answer.
Fortunately, Li Lanshan is no longer a little girl, she knows what is serious.
The first stop of Li Yuanxing's fleet was not the Maya that Li Lanshan wanted to go to, but the Gulf of Tonkin in South America. (To be continued, please search Piaotian Literature, the novel is better and updated faster!
