Firewood is easier to say. As long as you can find land, it shouldn't be difficult to collect. You can just use an ax to chop down trees.
But food is different.
Productivity is lagging these days. Food is very important no matter where you are. The best way to collect it is to go ashore and exchange it with the locals.
However, the Taiping did not carry much supplies, and the language was not well understood, so it was not easy to complete the exchange.
If the exchange fails, then the only option is to grab it.
With Jin Peng's character, he would definitely not rob the common people. Firstly, because it did not conform to the Zhenyuan Escort Bureau's style of conduct, the escorts could not bear it. Secondly, they would not be able to rob any money from the common people.
If you want to rob, rob rich people like landlords, bandits, and pirates.
By robbing a landlord, you may get more food than by robbing a thousand tenants.
Landlords, bandits and pirates are all ruthless people. To steal food from them, you will naturally need weapons.
This is why Jin Feng equipped the Tianping with weapons and trained sailors to learn musketry.
"Sir, what you said makes sense," Jin Peng nodded: "I understand, if you can win, fight, if you can't, run away. If you run out of supplies, go to the shore and go to the local landlord to get them!"
"The enemy!" Jin Feng smiled and patted Jin Peng on the shoulder.
At this time, the voices of the bodyguards and sailors were almost hoarse, their palms were red, and the cheers gradually weakened.
Xiaoyu saw that Jin Feng seemed to have stopped playing when chatting, so she winked at Jin Feng frequently.
It's a pity that Jin Feng didn't look towards her. Xiaoyu's eyebrows almost flew away, and Jin Feng didn't see it either.
When the Ninth Princess saw this, she could only cough lightly.
Only then did Jin Feng realize that a farewell ceremony was taking place.
"Brother Jinpeng, I won't say anything else. I wish you all the best and a triumphant return!"
"must!"
Jin Peng nodded heavily, then saluted the Ninth Princess and Jin Feng with a military salute, turned around and walked off the stage.
Xiaoyu then quickly raised her hand to signal everyone to stop applauding.
"Next, I would like to invite the Imperial Master to speak!"
Xiaoyu shouted down and handed the tin trumpet to Jin Feng.
Hearing this, Jin Feng looked at Xiaoyu in confusion.
He doesn't like talking very much. Firstly, he is not very eloquent and doesn't know what to say. Secondly, he hasn't got the electric speaker yet, so he can only speak by shouting, and he has to shout loudly, otherwise the people behind him will listen.
not see.
Jin Feng has seen the process before, and it seems that there is no part where he speaks. After issuing the certificate of credence to Jin Peng, isn't it the ninth princess's turn to speak?
Thinking of this, Jin Feng turned to look at the Ninth Princess.
But the Ninth Princess didn't look at him at all, and stared straight ahead.
Jin Feng also knew that now was not the time to ask, so he reached out and took the tin speaker and took two steps forward.
In an instant, all the escorts and sailors in the audience focused their attention on Jin Feng.
If he had just come to this world, just such a scene would scare Jin Feng away, but now that he has commanded so many wars, these are just small scenes for Jin Feng.
He cleared his throat, then raised his tin trumpet and shouted: "Warriors, you are about to go on an expedition, but your expedition is not to capture cities and territories, but to bring hope of survival to countless people in Dakang!
The significance of this voyage is greater than any war in history, and the danger is no less than any battle! I cannot guarantee that you will all come back alive, but I can guarantee that each of your names will be remembered in history.
Remember it!"
"For the sake of prosperity!"
"For the people!"
The sailors shouted in unison.
When the sailors' shouts stopped, Jin Feng shouted loudly: "Jin Peng, get out of the queue!"
Chapter 1606 Farewell (3) (2 / 2)

23 days ago
When Jin Peng, who had just returned to the team, heard this, he quickly took two steps forward and looked at Jin Feng with a confused look on his face. He didn't know why Jin Feng called him out again.
Originally prepared to listen to Jin Feng's order, Jin Feng did not issue an order, but continued to shout: "Zhong Yuanqing, get out of the queue!"
The real captain Zhong Yuanqing also quickly took two steps forward and stood side by side with Jin Peng.
Just when everyone thought Jin Feng was going to say something to the captain and deputy captain, Jin Feng still didn't say anything, but continued to shout: "Zhou Wenju, come out!"
A sailor who was standing next to the captain walked out of the line and stood behind the captain and mate.
"Liu Niloach, come out!"
"Xu Hai, come out!"
"Lin Dajiao, come out!"
…
Then, Jin Feng called the sailors' names one by one.
The sailors also came out one by one from left to right.
In the middle, Jin Feng didn't miss a single name, and after he finished calling, no one was missed.
Although Jin Feng said nothing, the sailors were excited!
Just now Jin Feng said that history would remember their names. Although the sailors were excited, many people did not take it seriously.
Since ancient times, one general has become famous forever. There are only so many things that can be recorded in history. At most, the Taiping and its captain and its two captains will be recorded. Who will remember these little soldiers?
But it's different now.
Jin Feng called out their names one by one!
Regardless of whether history remembers them or not, at least Jin Feng, the national master, remembers them!
This alone is enough to make the sailors excited.
Even the Ninth Princess looked at Jin Feng in surprise.
She knew that Jin Feng was somewhat face-blind and didn't really remember other people's names.
This time, she called out the names of so many sailors in one go without making any mistakes, which surprised the Ninth Princess very much.
Xiaoyu was in charge of the intelligence and knew more about things in the East China Sea. Seeing the confusion on the Ninth Princess's face, she went up to him and explained in a low voice: "Sir, he often goes to train the sailors in the East China Sea. He also likes to go to the navy camp when he has nothing to do.
Take a turn."
Princess Ninth understood it as soon as she heard it.
There were less than a hundred sailors on the Taiping. Jin Feng had been there many times, so he naturally remembered it.
The Ninth Princess always knew that Jin Feng valued this voyage, but through this incident, the Ninth Princess found that she still ignored the importance of the voyage in Jin Feng's mind.
You must know that Jin Feng didn't like teaching people in the past, just look at the few apprentices under Jin Feng.
After being collected, it is basically in a free-range state.
However, Jin Feng often went to train the sailors, probably because he was worried that they would encounter danger at sea and would not be able to bring back improved seeds.
Under the stage, the sailors stood in seven rows, staring at Jin Feng with their heads held high.
Others also looked at Jin Feng, wondering what he was going to do.
Everyone thought that Jin Feng was going to say some impassioned words to encourage the sailors, but they heard Jin Feng shout: "I will apply for you in a moment. Everyone's job rank will be raised one level. If you successfully get the good ones,
Bring it back, raise it to another level, and get another year’s salary as a bonus!”
Hearing Jin Feng say this, almost everyone laughed.
The sailors were also laughing, but their eyes looking at Jin Feng were full of gratitude.
Sailors have heard too many times about the importance of long voyages and are willing to work hard for it.
But if they can get more money and improve their family's life, they are naturally willing to do so.
