Chapter 1,111 Conversation on Big Whale Island and the Rise of the Navigating Faction
"The glory of the Lord God shines on us like the sun, and even more on you! Dear Priest Mickey, you not only brought back the news of the Divine Continent, but also brought back the craftsmen, seeds and beasts of the Western tribes... The Lord God witnessed
!With such dazzling exploration achievements, you should have a seat in the twelve priests and elders of the royal capital!..."
"Haha! Priest Shi Bo, the exploration of the Shenqi Continent is the divine revelation of the Lord God, and it is also the prophecy and will of His Majesty! The current extreme northern sea route can fulfill the prophecy and barely communicate with the tribes in the West Sea... We must also praise the Lord God,
Praise Your Majesty!…”
The clear and winding stream flows silently, from the mountains dozens of miles away, through the narrow mountain valleys, through the potato fields outside the camp, and finally merges into the sea at the port.
Mikey the Knowledgeable raised his head and looked at the white snow-capped mountains in the center of the island to the southwest, which is also where this small river originates. Next to Mikey, there was a young kingdom priest standing with a smile on his face.
With a respectful smile. He is the person in charge of the Kingdom's Great Whale Port, a first-class preaching priest, Shibo Epazote. In the Nahua language, the meaning of "Epazote" is exactly Mexico.
A commonly used spice in gourmet cuisine, Mexican oregano, or "rock mint", is a "scented herb grown between rocks and mountains".
Compared with Italian oregano, which originates from the Mediterranean coast, Mexican oregano has a strong lemon flavor, floral aroma and spicy taste, and is a completely different seasoning. In fact, the mint family of Italian oregano belongs to the Lamiaceae family.
Mexican oregano and stonemint are from the Verbenaceae family. The spicy spices added to the fish soup that translator Watanabe and blacksmith Otani drank were exactly the "stonemint" produced in large quantities in the Kingdom of the Lake.
"Priest Shi Bo, you are a priest who graduated from the third phase of Shenwei University, and you also know the teachings of the kingdom's priest group. The selection of priests and elders depends not only on His Majesty's will, but also on the tendencies of many priests and elders..."
"The guidance of the Lord God will be high in the sky. The wind of fate is always unpredictable, just like the unpredictable storm on the sea! ... Except for Your Majesty, who is a divine enlightener, what about the rest of the mortals?
Can you control your own destiny?... Even the seemingly respected priests and elders are just following the wind of fate, flying high like birds and falling low like autumn leaves..."
Having said this, Mikey, the knowledgeable man, looked up at the sky for a while, his eyes flashing with longing, and even more rational patience and wisdom. With a slight smile on his face, he patted Shi Bo's shoulder affectionately,
Said meaningfully.
"Shi Bo, we are from the same hometown and both came from Shenwei University... What we just said can be just a few words in private. If we mention it in public with the noble priests from the kingdom, it will be of no benefit... No matter to
I still love you..."
"Yes! Yes! Priest Mickey, you are right! I just met you. I was too close, too excited, and a little bit unable to control myself... Witness the Lord God! Among the series of priests who graduated from Shenwei University, you and
The respected Priest Zuwaro is not only a model among the first batch of graduating priests, but also has a legendary exploration experience... He is also deeply trusted by His Majesty. He has risen with the merits of navigation and is in charge of the navigation and exploration of the northern part of the Kingdom!... We are here
Many of the priests who graduated in the first batch were inspired by the two chief priests, so they were not afraid of the waves!"
"Haha! You are so eloquent...it shows that Divine Power University is really a place for cultivating talents!...Shi Bo, as of this year, Divine Power University has already recruited its seventh class of priest apprentices, right?"
"Yes! Chief Priest Mickey, since its establishment in the Year of the Five Stone Swords (1485), the Shenwei University in the royal capital has recruited seven priest apprentices. After three years of study, the fourth priest has also been admitted at the beginning of the year.
I graduated..."
Speaking of Shenwei University in the royal capital, a hint of emotion and nostalgia appeared on Shi Bo's face.
"It's just, Chief Priest Mickey, let me tell you the truth... There are one to two hundred priests graduating from Shenwei University every year. And most of the priest positions in the kingdom are already filled. Even if there are new vacancies,
, will be occupied by the children of the noble priests... There are even priests and elders with noble births who complain privately that the Kingdom's Divine Power University really spreads divinity too widely and recruits too many children of common people... New priests are trained every year
, it’s also a little too much…”
"Therefore, in the past two years, the newly graduated kingdom priests, if they have ordinary backgrounds, will choose to devote themselves to the development of the northern continent, or to join the newly conquered seaside land in the East China Sea... And the development opportunities of the northern continent depend on you and our ancestors.
The exploration of Priest Varro!… Praise the Lord God devoutly! I also sincerely praise you!…”
As a child of an ordinary commoner, the priest Shi Bo was able to change his class and destiny and become a noble priest of the kingdom, all because he was admitted and selected by the Divine Power University. In the Divine Power University, he saw a lot and studied hard.
He has reached a lot, and can be said to be the leader among the third class of graduating priests.
However, due to his ordinary background, it is impossible for him to find a village or parish to preside over in the rich lake kingdom. At most, he can only be a first-level aide next to the chief priest, helping to hold sacrificial ceremonies. But he can
The only place for him to take charge of a place and give full play to his talents is this desolate and remote northern coast. He can only devote himself to this difficult and hard work, but with both risks and opportunities, exploration and development!
"Well, Shi Bo, you are right! The reason why we, the priests of Shenwei University, can unite together... is because, compared with those noble priests who occupy high positions, we do not have a family background that we can rely on.
Being able to stick with each other according to academic level..."
Mickey the Knowledgeable smiled, his weather-beaten face also showing sighs and emotions. Even as a priest who graduated from Shenwei University, if he does not have a good background, it will be extremely difficult for him to have a way forward for promotion.
!And the most likely opportunity is to devote himself to the rough and dangerous navigation and exploration, just like his original choice!
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! "Witnessed by the Lord God! His Majesty's prophecy came true. He found the Divine Continent and established communication with the Xihai tribe... The seafaring priests of our Shenwei University department can be said to be
It’s vital! The greatest significance of this is that the exploration and development of the northern coast has more visible and tangible prospects and opportunities!…”
"Praise your Majesty for your divine inspiration! The tribes across the sea have mastered many technologies that the Alliance is in short supply! They have excellent craftsmen, and they also have crops and tamed animals that we have never seen before. They can even create three-dimensional
The hundreds of miles of sea-going ships produce all kinds of precious goods!…”
"However, these smart and powerful tribes actually have a special preference and pursuit of gold! What the kingdom lacks most, and what our ports along the way lack the most, is shining gold!..."
"Praise the Lord God! As long as we can establish stable and continuous trading routes with the tribes of the Western Sea... Not only will the kingdom in the lake and the Mexica Alliance be able to gain huge benefits, but even the west coast and the extreme north coast that pass through will also benefit.
Full and long-term development!…”
"Ah! The Xihai tribe that worships gold? Are they the ones who just landed ashore? Those dozen or so short sailors wearing shabby robes with the emblem of the Lord God carved on their foreheads?..."
Hearing this, the preacher priest Shi Bo opened his eyes wide and glanced at the port not far away. The three-masted ship was docked at the mouth of the river. A dozen kingdom warriors and crew were making fires to cook.
It seems like fish soup is being cooked.
On the other side of the river, three tall "four-legged riding beasts", led by a short tribesman, were strolling slowly in the grass by the river, lowering their heads to eat grass from time to time. Two senior officials from the kingdom
The samurai was following behind slowly, probably protecting the safety of the "four-legged beast".
"Yes! That's them! Although they are not powerful warriors, they are very powerful craftsmen and farmers!..."
Mikey, the knowledgeable man, nodded seriously and pointed to the Korean sailors and Japanese craftsmen who came ashore. Then, he pointed to the three tall "horses" with great solemnity and gave extremely serious instructions.
"Shi Bo, these three four-legged riding beasts are what His Majesty requested. They are horses that can carry people and run for one or two hundred miles a day! ... And these three horses have been sailing on the sea for too long.
, we can’t move forward, we must stay on Big Whale Island!…”
"Therefore, this whale island that you are responsible for will become the first horse breeding place in the entire lake kingdom, and even the entire world! This is your opportunity!..."
"Ah! Your Majesty requested the riding beast, the first place in the world to raise horses. I will be responsible for the delivery?... It's... it's so cold here, is it suitable to raise such... what kind of 'horses'?... I... I've never raised one either
It’s too easy to tame an animal…”
Upon hearing Priest Mickey's instructions, Priest Shi Bo was obviously taken aback, and his expression became nervous. Seeing his expression, Mickey, the knowledgeable man, smiled lightly and patiently comforted him.
"Shi Bo, don't worry! I have carefully inquired with the horse breeders of the He tribe. The climate of the Great Whale Island is very suitable for horse breeding! And these horses also like the long grass here, but they need to plant some cold-resistant soybeans...
Well, what are soybeans, you ask? They are a kind of kidney beans that are extra plump and can produce hard seeds. It is said that people can eat them and squeeze out oil..."
"What? Where do the horses sleep? They sleep in a warm stable, standing up... Haha, you don't have to ask in such detail! The horse breeder knows the specific planting and how to raise the horses, so leave it to him! You just need to
Just send out the tribesmen, listen to the horse breeder’s orders, and give him support!…No, the short guy holding the horse is the horse breeder. His name is Ichiro, and he is the first child in his family!…
"God bless you! Shi Bo, arrange wives from three tribes for this horse breeder Ichiro, let him settle down here and concentrate on raising horses... Well, choose a few more smart and smart young apprentices
, the more the merrier, learn to raise horses with him!”
"Witness the Lord God! These three horses are very precious. It was not easy for us to transport them back from the tribes in the West Sea seven thousand miles away! The care of these horses must be treated as the most important matter in your whale port.
!…”
"Yes! After the Great Whale Island is set up as a horse breeding ground, there will definitely be more than just these horses. There will be more and more horses in the future, and more horse breeders will be needed. We need to prepare early! And wait for these horses to adapt.
, when the number increases, we will definitely set up a special horse breeding land in the Kingdom in the Lake..."
"Shi Bo, remember my words and take good care of the horse raising!... In the not too distant future, this is your chance to truly embark on the mountain climbing road of the Lord God Snake Mountain!..."
