Hearing Li Ran ask, Lexington wiped the sweat from his forehead and said:

"They should be by the sea, such good weather. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 ｉｎfo”

Li Ran glanced at the bright sunshine and stretched his waist:

"yes, good afternoon. ”

Bismarck walked to the place where the bear skins were dried, took off the two intact bear skins, and walked to Li Ran's side:

"Admiral, the two bearskins have been dried, but the tanning may be a bit of a hassle. ”

"Tanning?" Li Ran looked at Bismarck holding two fine brown bear skins, and showed a troubled expression:

"Yes, it may be a little troublesome if the original leather is not tanned as soon as possible, but we don't have any extra tools now, Lexington, which country is closest to us?" Li Ran thought for a while, did he want to ask the ship girls to go on a long trip, and asked.

"We all know that there are three islands in the eastern part of the island, and as for the rest of the island, on the world charts, I think that area is an unexplored area, and we are here on the edge of the known sea, and the closest to the port area is the country of Xia, which is 1,600 nautical miles to the east. ”

"Xia Guo?" Li Ran glanced at Lexington suspiciously.

"Well, Xia is the country of the yellow race, by the way, like the commander, he has black hair, black eyes and yellow skin, and he ranks among the top three in strength among the land countries, by the way, remember the seven war zones I said, among them, there are three heads of war zones, that is, the governor, who was born in the Xia country, and the governor of the Pacific theater to which our port area belongs is a native of the Xia country, and the name is very strange, it seems to be called Xiao Xiaolai. Lexington thought about it and began to explain some common sense to Li Ran:

"Well, the closest to the Pacific Theater is the Atlantic Theater, the South Ocean Theater, and the Far East Theater, among them, except for the governor of the Atlantic Theater, who is not from the Xia Kingdom, the other two theaters are all from the Xia Kingdom, and if the commander becomes an official admiral in the future, it is necessary to visit the Pacific Governor. ”

Li Ran sighed, it was really troublesome, but he still nodded:

"Got it, it's not too late to talk about this when we solve the deep sea first, in fact, I'm thinking about a question, since we are here on the edge of the known area, then, what will be there in the unknown area? Will there be people living there? Will there be a country, after all, we are too far away from the nearest country here, and if we want to replenish, it will take a week to go back and forth. ”

Lexington sighed, she watched Bismarck put the bearskin in the house, and then thought for a moment and said:

"The unknown area is generally because the military strength of the admirals is not enough to open up, in fact, more than ten years ago, there was a large-scale voyage pioneering, that expedition was organized by the most elite hundreds of town guards in the seven major theaters, but later, the combined fleet did not come back, and some people rumored that the unknown area is the base camp of the deep sea, so the combined fleet must be more than lucky.

However, a very small number of optimistic people believe that the Combined Fleet should settle in an unknown area, after all, if there is no resource supply on the expedition, the Combined Fleet may not have the ability to return to the sea, but from then on, the expansion of the unknown area is considered a dangerous thing, and in recent years, the deep-sea fleet has been frequent, and the pressure of the seven major theaters is not small, and the matter of pioneering has been shelved indefinitely. ”

Li Ran thought about it, it seems that this world is really different from what he imagined, but Lexington's words aroused his fighting spirit, after all, who doesn't want to be a famous navigator like Columbus, he said humorously:

"Then I'd love to go to the unknown area, the world is too big, if I were content with the status quo because of your protection, and kept hiding in the port area, you would be disappointed with such an admiral. ”

Lexington was silent for a while, she wanted to refute, but found that in fact, she really wanted to be able to travel the world, and the ship's emotions and curiosity about the ocean were actually innate.

Bismarck had put the bearskin away, and she interjected:

"Admiral, it is necessary to remind you that although we can confirm that there are resources on the island because of the discovery of goblins, we have no money, and it is too early for us to dream of sailing. ”

Li Ran spread his hands helplessly, and he ridiculed Bismarck:

"I say, Bismarck, can you support your dream of being an admiral. ”

"Well, of course yes. Bismarck's face was expressionless, a hint of cunning flashed in his eyes, and he said in a serious tone:

"But I think it's more important to recognize the reality, the Admiral can't even support a few of us right now. ”

Li Ran's face fell, she looked at Lexington covering his mouth and snickering, he was not discouraged, and said confidently:

"Don't worry, as long as you dare to think and dare to do, there is nothing that can't be done, after all, I don't have you, do I?"

Lexington and Bismarck glanced at each other, and both saw a trace of helplessness in each other's eyes, Li Ran's words made their hearts warm, Lexington, and teased his bangs, a smile appeared on his gentle face, and she said:

"That's right, the commander still has us, and we will always be with you. ”

Bismarck didn't say a lot of sensational words, she just bowed her head heavily, signaling that she was the same as Lexington, Li Ran looked at the two of them, and said in her heart:

I'm really stressed out by you guys.

However, this feeling of being trusted is really good.

The three of them talked again, and Lexington went upstairs to accompany Saratoga again, the blonde sister-in-law, the situation has deteriorated a little now, and Li Ran is a little worried.

Li Ran thought about it, he couldn't be so comfortable now, and he said to Bismarck:

"Bismarck, you help me call Pinghai and the fireflies, I have something important to say in front of everyone. ”

Bismarck nodded, and as soon as she left the town guard's mansion, she saw a firefly running over, and she turned her head to Li Ran and said:

"The firefly seemed to have something going on, and ran back alone. ”

Li Ran was stunned for a moment, he was about to wash his face, walked to the stairs and was stopped by Bismarck, hurriedly walked back, and when he arrived at the gate of the town guard's mansion, he saw a panting firefly, and he said strangely:

"What's wrong?

"Mention ...... Admiral. Firefly gasped, and she spoke somewhat staccatoly:

"Big things are not good. ”

Li Ran chuckled in his heart when he heard this, and he wanted to call Bismarck to help.

But he heard the firefly continue:

"There is a large fleet, they want to enter the port, Sister Pinghai and Sister Juno said that these people are of unknown origin, and the other party is quite unreasonable and forced in. ”

"Quite unreasonable?" Li Ran's face flashed with a hint of annoyance, he looked at Bismarck, whose face was also cold, and said coldly:

"Take us there, and I'll see who dares to be presumptuous in my port area. ”

The firefly saw Li Ran's murderous spirit, she was anxious, knowing that she had said the wrong thing, she hurriedly waved her hand to explain, but Li Ran stopped her, and thought that the firefly had been wronged, and she came back to move the rescuers, so he shouted loudly:

"Lexington, come down, someone's coming to the door to find fault. ”

Lexington was talking to Saratoga when she heard the anger in Li Ran's voice, and she said to her sister:

"I'll go get busy first, you have a good rest, the commander is in trouble. ”

Saratoga pouted, didn't say anything, and watched her sister close the door, her eyes looking out the window, a little confused.

Besides, Li Ran, Lexington, and Bismarck rushed to the deep-water harbor with murderous vigor under the leadership of fireflies, but the coast was a different scene.
