Chapter 123: Set Sail

The battleship Wuwang, which was originally a Portuguese armed merchant ship belonging to Macau, was bought by Nguyen Phuc Anh at the beginning of this year under the guidance of Peter.

This armed merchant ship, with two decks and 40 guns, became the flagship of the Quang Nam Navy on this visit to France.

The convoy bound for France consisted of five ships, including the battleship Warrior, two corvettes, a merchant ship loaded with cargo, and a supply ship loaded with various supplies, and they would sail to Europe in a continuum with two Portuguese merchant ships and two English merchant ships.

At the Sattahip pier, Nguyen Phuc Anh wore a bright yellow robe and took his guards and concubines to the pier to see off the school

For example, the Bishop of the Foreign Church in Paris, such as the Deputy Envoy of the West, Hou Ye Kai of Saigon County, and five or six subordinate officials of the Ruan Dynasty bowed to Ruan Phuc Ying, of course, Peter and Ye Kai were bent down, and the others knelt!

"Ye Hou, Fujing will be handed over to you, please take care of it, he will have to cross the ocean like this....."

Ruan Fuying's queen Song Shilan was wearing a Ming-style princess robe, tears flowed like broken threads, she looked at Ye Kai with a begging face.

On this visit to Europe, in fact, the protagonist is not Peter or Ye Kai, but a five-year-old child, this is Ruan Phuc Anh's eldest son, Wang Shizi Ruan Phuc Kyung.

He was to go to France as a representative of Nguyen Phuc Anh to sign a series of treaties with King Louis XVI of France, a poor boy who, in later life, was a senior student, but here he had been living on this armed merchant ship for four months in order to adapt to life at sea.

Ye Kai gently picked up Ruan Fujing, feeling light, it is estimated that it is only about twenty catties at most, and his weight is far lower than the standard of a five-year-old child in the next generation.

But it's very cute, especially those big black and bright eyes, which look very cute!

Ruan Phuc King wrapped his hands around Ye Kai's neck and looked at his crying mother with big eyes puzzled, he had been living on a ship recently, and he was used to being separated from his mother every time, and he didn't know how far away Europe was.

"The queen can rest assured, the minister will do his best to ensure the safety of the prince, and will definitely escort him to France safely!" Ye Kai hugged Ruan Fujing and cried into tears, Rao Song Shilan nodded.

Song Shilan held back her tears and smiled at Ye Kai, "In this case, please brother-in-law, Fujing, call uncle!" ”

Song Shilan, who felt sorry for her son, was very smart and did not treat Ye Kai as a courtier, but as a brother-in-law.

"Uncle!" Ruan Fujing called Ye Kai uncle in a milky voice, Ye Kai also replied with a smile on his face, and then handed Ruan Fujing to Huang Ruqiong behind him.

This time, Ye Kai went to Europe and brought two maids to serve him, one was Huang Ruqiong, and the other was Li Ashui's sister Li Hewei.

brought Huang Ruqiong because Ye Kai found that if he didn't take her away, it was estimated that she would only have a pile of white bones left when she came back!

Huang's Ruqiong's performance in the cave room that night offended Ruan's Yuwan fiercely, if she was put by Ruan's Yuwan's side for two or three years, it would definitely be a dead end, so Ye Kai could only take her with her, anyway, she also needed someone to take care of her diet and daily life on the way.

When he went to the cave room, Ye Kai quietly clamped his thigh, nnd, the wedding was held three years ago, and one was used in Sattayi, and the remaining two were almost spent in the room.

Because Ye Fulai was afraid that Ye Kai would have some accidents on the way to Europe, he forced him to keep making people in the room, hoping that one of the three women of the master, the second servant and the three women would be pregnant with Yu

The first Ye Kai is quite happy, but the second is not that taste, Ye Kai now feels that something is no longer his own!

As for why he brought Li and Wei, this was also arranged by Ye Fulai, Li and Wei are genuine pure-blooded Hakka families, Ye Fulai hopes that she can give him a pure-blooded Chinese grandson while taking care of Ye Kai on the road.

"Bang! Boom! Boom! Several cannons sounded, and Ruan Fuying bowed solemnly to Ye Kai.

"Brother Shu Wuwu, this trip to France is a great responsibility, whether you can invite soldiers and restore the temple is up to you!"

Ye Kai also bent over ninety degrees with both hands, "Brother Wang, rest assured, Shu Wuding should do his best to live up to Brother Wang's trust!" ”

After Ye Kai arched his hand to Gu Lihuan and Ye Huan, "This is a long time to go to the mountains and rivers, and I will ask the two brothers for the big year!" When you study 300,000 in the course of ethnography, you must add my two books, remember to remember! ”

If Ye Kai still has anything to worry about, it is that he left too hurriedly this time, and the ethnology has not been done yet.

Originally, Ye Kai wanted to design a set of textbooks according to the standards of later generations, but there was no time for him to do so, so he could only lower the standards and only add history and arithmetic to the genealogy.

Originally, the management of the Ye family was very easy, when did the schoolchildren come? When to go? When did you stop learning? It all depends on the individual, if you want to learn, you can pay for it, and if you don't learn, you don't force it.

But from now on, children under the age of 12 must go to the school every half month to study more than 10, and those over 12 years old and under 16 years old need to study more than 5 every half month.

Finally, there are graduation standards for ethnology, those who can recognize 500 words, can addition, subtraction, multiplication and division within 100, can add and subtract within 1,000, and can recite 20 stories of historical celebrities can graduate!

After graduation, you will get a silver graduation certificate, with this certificate, whether you are a clan soldier in the Ye family or go to work on the Longsheng, you will have to pay more than others.

Moreover, Ye Kai also stipulated that if you don't have a graduation certificate, you won't give a daughter-in-law in the future, of course, you have the ability to find it, or you are willing to marry an indigenous person is not within the scope of control.

But if you want to get a Chinese daughter-in-law or even a nyonya daughter-in-law from Ye Kai, you need a graduation certificate, so the fifteen, sixteen, or even seventeen Australian singles are about to squeeze out the ethnography!

"Third brother Shuwu, don't worry, we understand!" Gu Lihuan and Ye Huan also returned the salute, Ye Fulai was already an official in Siam, so it was inconvenient to see him off, so he asked Gu Lihuan and Ye Huan to come over.

With the sound of a loud trumpet, five merchant ships lifted their sails and headed for Malacca, a visit of thirty members of Peter's entourage, including himself, a few missionaries back to France, as well as Anna and twenty French mercenaries.

Ruan Fuying's side is dominated by Ruan Fujing's attendants, maids, scholars, clerks and others, there are about sixty people, and the rest are Ye Kai's entourage, there are as many as eighty people.

These include Brother Asheng Ye Sheng, who used to be undercover in Bangkok and is suitable for being a spy agent, and his cousin Ye Ming and He Yuer.

The others are all thirteen or fourteen-year-old boys selected from the families of Pattani, Chen, Jiang, Huang, and Kuala Terengganu Zhang, Liu, Gao, and Lin.

Most of them have gone through more than four months of French tuition, and they have also completed the study of the math book compiled by Ye Kai, which is actually addition and subtraction within 1,000 and multiplication and division within 100 and 99 multiplication tables.

These teenagers will be Ye Kai's future, from the time he was selected, Ye Kai will study with them as soon as he has time, play together, and when they arrive in Europe, they will be sent to various places to learn European science and technology, these are Ye Kai's children in the United States!

In the future, most of the middle and high-ranking officers, officials, scholars, and scientists in Ye Kai's regime will basically emerge from these people!
