"Besides, I also asked the fishermen that storms at sea increase at the end of summer, and hurricanes may hit at some point. Our crew is not enough and we are inexperienced. God will help us this time. What about next time?" Fu Mingyu paused.
He continued, "It's better to cultivate yourself first, and then find some reliable manpower, so that even if you don't encounter pirates or encounter a storm, you won't mess up the stitches. Of course you have to make money, but I am also responsible for your safety.
."
Zhao Mingyu was a little stunned for a moment.
He was indeed dazzled by the success of this voyage. He even contacted a big smuggler in Dafeng Prefecture. If there was any goods in the future, he could pick it up directly. He stood aside and thought about it.
The first time they set sail and encountered the thrill of pirates, they did not
There was a person who had experience in dealing with pirates. When he was attacked at first, he was in a mess. Finally, Lu Huaixue gave the order and simply let the pirates board the ship, taking advantage of the big ship and the martial arts of their Lu family disciples.
Only with great skill did he withstand the attack of pirates.
This voyage was really smooth, and we didn't encounter even a storm along the way.
If we really set sail with three large ships, there will really be a big problem if there are not enough guards on board.
"Yes, the princess has been thoughtful, but my subordinates are a little rash." Zhao Mingyu quickly corrected his expression, cupped his fists and said to Fu Mingyu. After saying this, he couldn't help but feel a little ashamed in his heart, that he had been so short-sighted.
"You don't have to worry, you'll have time to show off your talents." Fu Mingyu saw that Zhao Mingyu's face looked a little lonely, and couldn't help but smile, "Sister-in-law has already found many old sailors with good water skills to come over. If we follow their plan,
The speed is just over a month to reach Nanping County. With their addition, and the addition of the newly trained disciples from the Lu family, your fleet will have a bright future."
Zhao Mingyu smiled sheepishly and said, "The princess also thinks highly of her subordinates, so she entrusts such an important matter to her subordinates."
"Okay, don't stand here and talk nonsense. Although we are not sailing anymore, I still have something to tell you to do. The summer grain is coming soon. You can run around in several nearby states and counties to ensure that there is grain in all seasons.
In the name of hoarding some food, no matter what happens in the future, we must have food in our hands and not panic in our hearts." Fu Mingyu smiled at Zhao Mingyu.
"Yes, don't worry, Princess." Zhao Mingyu was shocked when he heard this. Now he admires his master even more. Although it is a bit regretful that he can't sail, as long as the master arranges things, he is optimistic about his ability!
"Go ahead. Try to make the arrangement as reasonable as possible without attracting attention." Fu Mingyu said.
"I understand." Zhao Mingyu nodded, "I can go a little further. Check out Huzhou and Suzhou in the west."
"Yeah." Fu Mingyu nodded.
After she let Zhao Mingyu leave, she got up and went to look for Altasha. Altasha was about to leave for Shanxia Village to see her people. Fu Mingyu said that she wanted to go with her, and Altasha readily agreed.
The two people mounted their horses together and headed towards the village at the foot of the mountain.
Shanxia Village is located on the outskirts of Linchuan. As the name suggests, it is surrounded by mountains. It is a bit far away from Linchuan and is remote. It is not noticeable at all on weekdays. Yang Si chose this place because he wanted the big landowner to sell it cheaply and
This land is hidden in a ravine and is not easily discovered.
Just because this place is remote enough, Fu Mingyu didn't waste any words or effort when he found someone to move the villagers here. The main reason was that Fu Mingyu gave him a lot of money, so everyone left without hesitation. There were only a few old and weak people who didn't want to stay away from their homeland.
Fu Mingyu had just arranged for them to stay, and now he also gave them some errands so that they could earn money and support their families.
Fu Mingyu has been busy with other things recently and has not even bothered to come to Shanxia Village to have a look, so when he arrived here, he was surprised.
She came to Shanxia Village a few months ago to see the Taigu people. At that time, the aboriginal people in Shanxia Village had moved away, and the village was as desolate as a ghost village. Now when she comes back, she sees green trees and vegetable fields.
The vegetables in the fields are well managed and look green. There are chickens and ducks walking leisurely in the village. It is a lively scene no matter how you look at it.
Hong Fuling has been living in the village for the past few days to treat the Taigu people, so when she knew Fu Mingyu was coming, she went to the village entrance to greet her as soon as possible. Now she comes to stay for a few days every month, after all, the Taigu people still have
Although the poison was suppressed by her, it still takes time to study to completely remove it.
Hong Fuling is the treasure of the Taigu people in the village, and Hong Fuling is a quick learner. After getting along with her these days, she has already learned simple Taigu. When the Taigu people knew that Fu Mingyu was coming, they all came out to welcome her. When they saw Fu Mingyu dismounting,
, they all knelt down, because both their princess and Hong Fuling always praised Fu Mingyu, so in the minds of the Taigu people, Fu Mingyu was the goddess who saved them from the fire pit.
Fu Mingyu was extremely embarrassed and could only exchange a few words with everyone before running away. After all, the Taigu people were too enthusiastic.
After sneaking to Hong Fuling's residence and no more noisy people following her, Fu Mingyu breathed a sigh of relief.
Hong Fuling poured a glass of mulberry juice and handed it to Fu Mingyu and said with a smile, "It's not as good as the Marshal's Mansion, but it's better than freshness." A few days ago, someone came to buy so-called silkworm cocoons and deceived many people in Linchuan into planting mulberry trees. Later,
The village was taken over by Fu Mingyu. She did not order the saplings that had been planted to be pulled out, but opened up many more fields.
Now the mulberry tree has grown mulberries. If you don't eat them, it will be wasted. After Hong Fuling came, she taught everyone how to cook mulberries and squeeze mulberry juice to drink.
"I looked at the fields outside, and they are very well planted." Fu Mingyu smiled and looked at his third sister-in-law, "Your people learn things very quickly."
"It was also those old people who refused to leave who taught me well." Altasha said with a smile, "Your method is wonderful. Those old people refused to move, so you hired them as farming masters. They saw that
I have a lot of money, and I don’t even need to farm my own land. I just need to teach my own farming experience, so I am very energetic in teaching. If they teach seriously, the results will naturally be good.”
Fu Mingyu laughed. At first, she thought of a way to win over those old people and prevent them from going outside to talk nonsense. Now it seems that she really had no intention of doing anything. After all, the Taigu people have been nomadic people for generations.
If you let them herd, they will be good hands, but if you let them farm, you will really just roll your eyes.
"By the way. Last time you told me to choose some good horse breeders, and I have found them. This time you are here, just in time to take a look. They are also willing to go to the horse farm in Nanping County. They have been learning simple skills in the past few days.
