The weather is getting warmer and warmer, and the curtain has come down on the long winter that has been going on since last year, and the snow and ice have melted, and finally it is the season of recovery.

At this time, the two of them came to Qin Jue's house.

Zhang Zhongjian took Li Tai to find Qin Jue.

"Qin Jue, this kid is especially in line with Zhang's appetite, Li Erlang asked a certain to take him on a voyage, originally thought that he was just playing with him, but in recent days, a certain person found that this little fat man is very good."

Zhang Zhongjian said directly to Qin Jue, this kid's knowledge is very powerful.

"How?"

Qin Jue looked at Zhang Zhongjian with a puzzled expression, and asked with some doubts.

Zhang Zhongjian smiled, and then said to Qin Jue: "This kid told me that he wants to go to the New World, and what is what a great navigator should do, such a thing is something that has been passed down through the ages, and he thinks he is right, and he has made enough money in this life, so he wants to do a good job and see if he can be famous through the ages." ”

“……”

When Qin Jue heard this, he immediately looked at Li Tai, why is this so familiar?

I think that's what I said at the beginning.

The words used to persuade Li Tai.

"That's right."

Qin Jue nodded, and then said to Zhang Zhongjian: "But it's not enough to discover the new continent, I feel that you should be able to sail around the world, so that you can be more famous." ”

"Oh?"

Zhang Zhongjian looked at Qin Jue, and then said: "This earth is a ball, and I have heard of it, but what kind of charter is this circumnavigation around the world?" ”

Qin Jue looked at Zhang Zhongjian, pointed at Li Tai and said, "This kid didn't tell you the route of the voyage?" ”

"The route, he's already told you!"

Zhang Zhongjian nodded, and then said: "Three routes!" Yes! That's right! ”

Zhang Zhongjian nodded suddenly, and then said to Qin Jue: "It makes sense!" Three routes, two of which are completely opposite routes.

If I go one way and come back that way, wouldn't I be able to circle around it?

Hahaha, that's really the case! ”

Zhang Zhongjian suddenly became excited, and said to Qin Jue: "In this case, the materials that need to be consumed are very large, and there must be a large number of people, navigation is not as simple as other things, and the effort required is quite large."

In this case, I may not be able to leave this year, and I need to plan well, otherwise there is really no way. ”

Qin Jue looked at Zhang Zhongjian, and then said with a smile: "Plans are not all made by people, they are very simple, as long as you can plan well, you will definitely be able to do it, as for people, let me figure it out for you." ”

"However, there are some things that still need me to say hello to you, otherwise it will be really different."

Zhang Zhongjian said to Qin Jue: "Actually, I have been doing business around Datang all these years, I don't dare to sail far, and I don't have much experience, what do you say about this voyage?" ”

"Fresh water, as well as supplies are the most important, you have to be well prepared if you are going to drift at sea for a long time, so you need a big ship!"

Qin Jue said to Zhang Zhongjian: "The ship, as well as the entourage, must be at least 10,000 people to complete this voyage, so many people, you have to prepare a lot of supplies, if the supplies are not enough, then what should we do?" ”

"How?"

Zhang Zhongjian asked Qin Jue, he really didn't know this.

"There's a saying that wars feed war, you know?"

Qin Jue looked at Zhang Zhongjian, and then said, "I asked you to bring 10,000 people, do you think it's for you to play?" ”

"You mean ......"

Zhang Zhongjian understood what Qin Jue meant in an instant.

This old boy was also a rebel at the end of the Sui Dynasty, so he understood what Qin Jue said.

Qin Jue wanted him to plunder, once there were no supplies, he would go ashore and plunder, was this a little too much?

"How much combat power do these people still have at sea?"

Zhang Zhongjian asked Qin Jue, there are a lot of things, but it's not just talking, because the soldiers of the Tang Dynasty have no experience in naval warfare, and the naval division is not so easy to train.

"Soldiers are all to be trained, during this time, you are ready to train the seamaster, and ships and other things also need to be built, you go to Jiangnan Dongdao to train the troops well, and the ship will be left to me."

Qin Jue said to Zhang Zhongjian: "These things, I will help you arrange them, there are still many things to prepare, the voyage must be completely prepared, if you are not prepared, you will wait for death." ”

Qin Jue looked at Zhang Zhongjian very calmly, and then said: "This is not just playing, it requires great courage, especially outside, if you don't have great courage, great courage, and great wisdom, when you go overseas, you will soon be driven crazy." ”

After listening to Qin Jue's words, Zhang Zhongjian smiled, and then said: "I have courage, courage, and wisdom, but I still want to know what you want to prepare." ”

"You don't need to worry about this, I'll prepare it all for you."

Qin Jue said: "You go to train now, everything has me, you can go with confidence." ”

"I still need to talk to Li Erlang about this, right?"

Zhang Zhongjian looked at Qin Jue, and then said: "After all, I want to train an army of tens of thousands of people, if Li Erlang doesn't agree, I won't have a way to train in Datang at all." ”

"There is no problem with this, as long as you and Your Majesty want to get military power, I think you should be able to mix easily."

Qin Jue is quite calm, because Zhang Zhongjian has always called Li Shimin Li Erlang, such an awesome title can be regarded as unique in the Tang Dynasty.

is such a powerful character, Li Shimin should not interfere with him or anything.

"This also depends on the situation, after all, he is now the emperor of the Tang Dynasty, and his mentality has probably changed, maybe he will be afraid that I will rebel."

Zhang Zhongjian smiled, and then said: "But I will still discuss it with him, it's really not good, I'll give him some money, it should be fine." ”

Zhang Zhongjian's favorite thing now is the ability to make money, and the problems that can be solved with money are not a problem.

Especially now Li Shimin likes money the most, as long as he gives money, he can agree to anything.

Qin Yu knows Li Shimin quite well.

He felt that there was a good chance that today's events would be successful.

Qin Jue nodded to Zhang Zhongjian, and then said to him: "As for recruiting troops, after you arrive in Jiangnan Dongdao, try to find those fishermen, the poorer the better, and promise them a reward of ten taels of silver for a trip to sea."

In this way, you will definitely find a lot of people, as long as you are willing to spend money, there will definitely be a return. ”

"Huh?"

Zhang Zhongjian looked at Qin Jue and asked a little puzzled: "Why is it better to be poorer?" The poor can't afford to eat, they are hungry, where do they get their strength? ”

"You don't understand this, listen to me, especially those people in the land of Wu Yue, you divide them into two teams, you and Li Tai each lead a team, and then every time you go out, the two teams compare their combat achievements, and the side with more powerful combat achievements has a little more bounty, you see what the final effect will be."

Qin Jue smiled and said to Zhang Zhongjian: "I know more about these people than you do, don't worry, the combat effectiveness of these people will surprise you." ”

After Zhang Zhongjian listened to Qin Jue's words, he didn't understand it at all, he didn't know why these people were so strong, there was no reason at all.

However, Zhang Zhongjian still believed it, because Qin Jue's words had already been confirmed.

He said a lot of things that sounded fake to others, but in the end he was right.

So now Zhang Zhongjian directly chose to believe.

looked at Qin Jue, and then Zhang Zhongjian left directly with Li Tai, ready to go to find Li Shimin.

After Qin Jue watched Zhang Zhongjian leave, he began to think about what things should be prepared for the voyage.

First of all, oranges are a must-have.

Because this scurvy is a very difficult thing to deal with, followed by alcohol, so many people, going to fight, how can they not get hurt?

After this injury, it must be disinfected, otherwise it will be easy to suppurate.

This alcohol must be prepared.

Then, Qin Jue couldn't think of anything, but for this ship, Qin Jue had the design drawings of Zheng He's treasure ship, but Qin Jue still wanted to see if Li Ke could make a more awesome ship.

Thinking of this, Qin Jue went directly to Li Ke.

After telling Li Ke his intentions, Li Ke nodded, and then said: "I can make a steamer, a very large ship, and I need a while to prepare for its power facilities, but all parts of this ship can be made now, and the power facilities can be installed when the time comes."

But such a thing, it is estimated that it will take many years to realize, because the current level of manufacturing steel is too poor, I have observed these days, this era is too backward, there is no way to make many things, even copper wire can not be made well. ”

Li Ke complained to Qin Jue: "There are a lot of things, I haven't come out, I have a lot of ideas that I can't realize now, these things really make me feel very uncomfortable, the power of one person is too small, I need someone to help me, but the gap is too big, no one can understand me at all."

Master! I'm so uncomfortable!

I think everyone is like a monkey, all people are like a monkey, they don't know anything, I'm in too much pain, only Master, you can communicate with me well, other people are like a monkey in my eyes, I'm so difficult! ”

“……”

When Qin Jue heard this, his face suddenly twitched a little.

Although this guy changed his words suddenly, it could be heard in his tone.

I'm also a monkey-like being.

Because this guy has been enlightened, and he has more than a thousand years of knowledge in this world, and now he is proud, but there is no way, the current society can't bear all his knowledge, he still has to start from scratch and slowly get started.

"A lot of things, you have to figure out your own way, freezing three feet is not a day's cold, you alone can't completely change the world, you need to take in some apprentices, let them help you, you know, if you don't teach them, they won't change, only if you teach them, they will slowly change, will be the same as you."

Qin Jue said to Li Ke: "Although you are a person now, as long as you are willing to teach students, in the future, you will have helpers, and you will be able to truly create a better era." ”
