Chapter 335: Charts
Regarding the undercurrent of Guanyun City, Fu Xiaoguan didn't know.
On March 20 of the ninth year of the Xuanli calendar, Fu Xiaoguan went to the embassy of the Yu Dynasty and stayed here for a long time to comment on the articles they had written for the 100 students.
It was close to noon, he left the embassy, and took the four disciples of the Taoist Academy to the cyclamen to have a lunch, and drank tea for a while - Su Su followed Dong Shulan and Yu Wenyun to the Dingguo Marquis Mansion again, today they are going to talk about a shop, Su Su's reason is to protect Dong Shulan and Yu Wenyun, Fu Xiaoguan also thought so, only Su Rou roughly understood what Su Su was thinking.
She was naturally very happy about this, thinking that Su Su, the girl, had finally opened up a little bit and took the path of saving the country with a curve.
At the end of the day, under the leadership of Deng Xiu, the group went to the Broken Water Bridge Lane where the middle city and the outer city intersected.
The place was quite remote, and the carriage traveled for about half an hour.
After getting out of the carriage, Fu Xiaoguan looked around, the environment was not bad, the streets were still wide, and the pedestrians and vendors were not as good as the inner city and the middle city, but they also had a lively scene.
Deng Xiu walked over and bowed, "My lord, the embassies of the three small countries here, this first place is in this small courtyard at the bridgehead, called Liuguo, which is an island country, and it is the largest of the three small countries. The other two are nearby, one is Liguo and the other is Luzon, both of which are coastal countries, and it is said that it takes dozens of days to sail. ”
"Well, go check it out."
Deng Xiu went to the small courtyard at the head of the bridge, and did not hand over the post, but directly buttoned the door knocker.
Not long after, the door opened, and what appeared in front of Fu Xiaoguan was a middle-aged man in exotic clothes.
"Lord Wellside, long time no see."
The middle-aged man was suddenly overjoyed, and hurriedly surrendered his hand: "Oh, yes, Lord Deng, what kind of wind blew you, please ......come in quickly" He turned around and shouted at the top of his voice: "Sakura, ready to make tea, there is a distinguished guest coming to the door." ”
Deng Xiu laughed, turned sideways and pulled back, "That's right, I came to the capital with an adult, and he wants to talk to Jingbianjun." ”
Jingbian Xiongji was even more happy, as an island country with poor resources, their emperor wanted to have a good relationship with these upper kingdoms. It has only been two years since the embassy of the Wu Dynasty was established, but it has already shown them the prosperity and strength of these kingdoms.
They had already heard that it was a country comparable to the Wu Dynasty and had its own merits, but it was too far away to go to the Yu Dynasty for more than 3,000 miles, and they were not ready to go to the Yu Dynasty to meet the emperor and apply for the establishment of an embassy.
Jingbian Xiong Er looked at Fu Xiaoguan, but he was shocked in his heart, why is this adult from Yu Dynasty Kyoto so young?
He couldn't help but look at Deng Xiu with some doubts.
Deng Xiu said with a smile: "This adult is Fu Xiaoguan, the official worships the doctor of Taizhong, and the doctor of Zhongshu Province, and is the head of the embassy of our dynasty at the Wu Dynasty Cultural Conference." ”
Xiong Er by the well was taken aback, Fu Xiaoguan?!
"My lord, you are the Fu Xiaoguan who dreamed of the Red Mansion?"
Fu Xiaoguan bowed slightly, and Xiong Er hurriedly bowed, "The name of Master Fu is even greatly admired by His Excellency the Emperor of my dynasty, please come in, please come in!" ”
This is special, could it be that the Red Mansion was sold to that island country in a dream?
What a loss of silver!
Fu Xiaoguan is very heartbroken, in this damn era, there is no awareness of copyright at all.
As Kumaji entered the courtyard and came to the study, he saw a woman wearing a cherry blossom dress kneeling in front of the tea table.
Seeing everyone come in, the woman got up and said a blessing, "Little girl Sakura, please say hello to all the adults, please take a seat." ”
Fu Xiaoguan sat in front of the tea table, thinking that looking at the outfit, it was similar to the island country in his previous life.
Jingbian Xiong Er sat aside, "Sakura is the seventh princess of our country, admires the culture of Shangguo, has been here for half a year, and now she is studying holy science in Lishan Academy, she admires you very much." ”
Sakura raised her head, Fu Xiaoguan took a closer look, and sure enough, there was an indescribable style.
"Inobe-kun, who is this little adult......?"
"Your Highness the Seventh, this is not a little adult, he is Fu Xiaoguan, Master Fu!"
The cherry blossoms are happy, their eyes are bent into crescents, and their small mouths are slightly pursed, revealing a row of smooth teeth, which is more and more charming.
"Hello Master Fu!" She got up again and bowed her hand to Fu Xiaoguan, "Master Fu's poems and articles Sakura are very admired, I didn't expect that the adult would be so young, which really makes Sakura admire!" ”
"It's all a false name...... Fu Xiaoguan didn't have time to dwell on the broken matter of this poetry and article, he looked at Jingbian Xiong Er and went straight to the point, "I came here this time to ask Jingbian Jun, is there a route from Liuguo to this Wu Dynasty?" ”
Sakura pouted, looked at Fu Xiaoguan with resentment, and sat down to make tea, thinking to herself why didn't this genius like beautiful women?
In terms of appearance, the cherry blossoms are really beautiful, and they don't let Dong Shulanyu ask Yun the slightest, and she has a soft atmosphere, which makes people feel pitiful, but this Fu Xiaoguan doesn't seem to be even interested in saying more words to her, which is a little regrettable.
"Master Huifu, there is a fairway, this waterway has been opened up for many years, and it has matured, except for worrying about storms, there is no risk in the rest."
"How long does it take to walk at sea?"
"If all goes well, at my speed toward the three-masted galleon, it will take about a month."
Sakura boiled tea, poured a cup for Fu Xiaoguan and handed it over, thinking to himself why this little adult is asking this? Could it be that he wants to go to Ryuki?
"Have you opened up any routes in the direction of the East China Sea?"
"Preliminary probing has been completed because ...... Because some things in the country have stopped again, I heard the Ministry of Maritime Affairs say that the East Sea Route can go directly to Jiuye - this is a seaside tribe, where there is a river flowing in, and I predict that the Ministry of Maritime Affairs will be able to reach the Yu Dynasty if you go up the river. ”
Fu Xiaoguan was taken aback, thinking that it was the estuary of the Yangtze River, but it had changed from the terrain of the previous life, and the territory of the Yu Dynasty did not completely cover the place called Jiuye.
"The old wild place is very good, I heard that it is a natural harbor, but unfortunately our dynasty is limited by national strength and cannot open up that place."
The speaker had no intention of listening, Fu Xiaoguan remembered that place, and decided to go back to Jinghu Villa to repair a letter to Fu Daguan, asking him to hire a few boats from the Siniang family, go down the Yangtze River, and go through the Yangtze River to see where he would go.
No one understands the importance of a natural port better than Fu Xiaoguan!
He needs this port, and he needs to build a battleship! - The Yu Dynasty is a landlocked country, there is really no such thing.
"On behalf of the Emperor of the Yu Dynasty, this official welcomes you to come to the Yu Dynasty to build an embassy in Shangjing, so as to promote cultural and economic exchanges between the two sides."
"The lower official must pass on Lord Fu's words to His Excellency the Emperor!"
Fu Xiaoguan stood up, ready to leave, and suddenly asked casually: "Your nautical charts...... Can you give me a copy? ”
