Chapter 572: Wanton
Regardless of their function, the ships of the ocean-going caravans were large and sturdy, and although they were hardly carved and painted, they were strong and strong, and their survivability at sea was greatly enhanced. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info
To the uninitiated, it may seem that it is not glamorous and rich, but only those who have actually sailed far and wide will understand that such a ship sailing in the sea can ensure the safety of their lives.
"My father said that the ocean-going caravans made a lot of money every time they went to sea, bringing back many rare spices and jewels from overseas. I had thought that the caravan ships would look very luxurious, but I didn't expect it to be so simple. Liu Che was surprised.
"A beautifully carved ship is of little use other than to be more likely to attract the attention of pirates." Faced with Liu Che's question, Mr. Josephine said with a smile, "No matter how good you look on the outside, it is not as important as being able to protect your life on the sea." ”
That's right, it's gone, and it doesn't matter if it's good-looking or not.
Liu Che nodded with a serious face, and he looked like he knew that life was the most precious, which made everyone smile.
The crowd followed Mr. Josephine from the deck to the cabin to the wheelhouse, inside and out, up and down, and nodded in praise as they listened to Mr. Josephine's detailed introduction.
Liu Che kept asking questions, and when he encountered a crew member maintaining the ship, he would go up and help, and he looked serious with interest.
Everyone visited until lunchtime, and they simply did not get off the ship to find food, and simply had lunch on the ship with the crew who stayed behind.
Rice with seafood, plus a moderate amount of seasonal vegetables, the most characteristic of sea boats.
For people like Peng Jin who don't often go to sea, this can be regarded as a unique meal, and just thinking about it makes people feel tempted.
A meal that was enjoyed by both the guests and the hosts.
On a hot summer day, people tend to get sleepy in the afternoon, so Mr. Josephine simply packed up the cabin upstairs for everyone to take a nap.
Hungry and sleepy, and the sky was blazing, everyone was like wilted eggplants at this moment, and they all accepted Mr. Josephine's kindness.
After resting, you will have the energy to continue visiting and playing!
As soon as the windows were opened, there was a refreshing sea breeze with a hint of saltiness, which made people feel relaxed and happy, and most of them were hot and tired, drunk, and wanted to sleep more and more.
The cabins are simply furnished, but the bedding and other bedding are very soft and clean, compared to the unpretentious appearance of the ship, it is more elaborate and attentive, lying on it, the fatigue seems to be mostly gone, it is really a good place to eliminate fatigue and recuperate body and mind.
"The world loves to be flashy, but I think Mr. Josephine is very wise, those bells and whistles are for others to see, and these benefits are what I need." Peng Jing looked at the layout in the cabin and smiled with Liu Shi.
In addition to the fatigue of the body, the lack of fresh water and other materials, but also the loneliness of not seeing the land for months, the crew can return to such a simple and warm place of residence and sleep soundly at this time, which is really a good way to relieve all kinds of discomfort symptoms.
Liu Shi nodded and replied with a smile: "It is precisely because of this pragmatism and calmness that Mr. Josephine has been able to patiently plan in Quanzhou for several years, and can seize the opportunity, face the difficulties, and achieve such achievements!" ”
Those who always think about how to show off in front of outsiders are mostly shallow and ignorant, and they are unlikely to achieve great achievements in this life.
Peng Jin nodded, convinced of this.
The couple gossiped and unconsciously fell asleep and rested peacefully.
As for the three siblings Nuan Nuan and Liu Zhan and Liu Che, they were divided into two groups with the two sisters Kate, Elizabeth and John, living together, playing and talking, taking a nap in the afternoon, and being very happy.
After a short lunch break, Mr. Josephine took the group on a tour of the other ships.
There were a total of ten ships in the entire ocean-going caravan, and most of them went to sea at a time, and the remaining two to four ships were left in the harbor for maintenance and repair, so as to be used for rotation and recuperation.
From the storage of cargo to the accommodation of the crew, to the wartime escort, and so on, all these ships have everything they need to ensure the life and safety of the crew after going to sea.
While visiting, everyone listened to Mr. Josephine's explanation, and couldn't help but be amazed.
In addition to visiting the ships of the ocean-going sea caravan, everyone is strolling around in this largest port in Daqi and enjoying a different port style.
Ships come and go either berthing or anchoring, or sailing away, very lively; The market is full of curiosities for people to choose and buy; Pedestrians come and go, dressed in different clothes, from all directions.
Everywhere shows the luxury and grandeur of the first port of Daqi.
When people are in the middle of it, they don't feel happy, and they really have the feeling of wealth and elegance in the prosperous world.
On the last day, Mr. Josephine rented a larger fishing boat nearby and took everyone to the shallow waters to fish and enjoy the cool sea breeze.
When the ship comes to a stop on the sea, there is nothing but the blue sea and the seagulls soaring, pure and holy.
However, for the children, it is not the vastness and depth that attracts them, the serenity and holiness, but the seagulls that swoop down from time to time to hunt, the various fish that are caught by hooks or caught in fishing nets.
As one fish after another was caught, the children erupted into bursts of excited cheers from time to time, and even after crossing to Daqi, Peng Jin, who was becoming more and more quiet and elegant, was also infected, laughing from time to time, as if returning to the most indulgent days in his previous life.
Liu Shi watched it from the side, and the corners of his mouth couldn't help but rise higher and higher, Peng Jin, who laughed so wantonly, made him feel dazzling and brilliant in his eyes.
His wife should laugh and live happily like this!
Because the holiday was coming to an end, the group stayed in Tianjin Port for only three days and had to hurry back.
Although the children feel that they are still unsatisfied, they are all sensible and not entangled.
And because Tianjin Port delayed a lot of time, so everyone's journey back seemed to be a little rushed.
Fortunately, Peng Jin spread a soft felt blanket in the carriage in advance, and walked on a flat official road.
When he was about to arrive in the capital, Liu Zhiyu received a flying pigeon biography on the way, and he couldn't help but be overjoyed after reading it, and laughed heartily.
"What's wrong, what's going on? It's worth your joy! Peng Jin asked with a smile on the side.
Liu Shi raised the letter in his hand and said with a smile: "Brother An just passed the news that Brother Ziliang's appointment has come down!" ”
