Things went much smoother than expected, there was really so much food in Jiaozhi that they couldn't eat enough, if it weren't for the people here being too lazy, Sun Xiangfu felt that they could be the richest people in this period.

In two days, the cabin was almost stuffed with seven or eight thousand stone grains, in addition, there were some white medicines, and dozens of large clay mounds were placed on the deck, and each clay mound had a small agarwood sapling, as for Jin Sinan, red sandalwood, Sun Xiangfu was not rare, after all, in the Tang Dynasty of this period, similar things were not difficult to find.

The most delightful thing for Xi Jun is that there are two baby elephants that are not yet as big as a buffalo, one has a black skin, Sun Xiangfu named him Xiao Hei, it is a female elephant, and one has a more stubborn personality, it is a male elephant, Sun Xiangfu named him Xiao Ye, in order to deceive these two baby elephants, Ba Mu thought of a lot of ways, and in the end, he got ten silk horses and two jars of good wine given to him by Sun Xiangfu.

Before leaving, Sun Xiangfu and Bamu agreed that for a maximum of ten days, he would also send the fleet to trade their timber, grain, herbs and other things, and would bring them silk, gold and silver ornaments, and even iron tools, to help his small tribe that had been driven to the sea to grow strong in the land of Jiaozhi, as long as the two sides maintained stable trade relations later.

"I think the Cochin people are so stupid."

This is a sentence that Xi Junmai often says recently.

They only exchanged a few dozen pieces of silk, some wine, and a small amount of gold and silver ornaments for a whole shipload of things, but no one in Datang did this business.

"It's not that they're stupid, it's just that their values are different from ours, the things we want are everywhere in them, and they are not valuable, but the things we give them are things that they can't produce here.

I heard that in the sea area further south, there is a spice island, there are more spices on the island than the grain here, that is spices, in Chang'an, the price of a catty is hundreds of Wen, but if you take the grain to them to exchange for spices, one boat can be exchanged for ten boats.

There are also places where there is a kind of shiny stone, which is the hardest stone in the world, which is said to last forever, and is much more valuable than gold and silver, but the local people think that it cannot be eaten or drunk, and it is of little use, as long as you give them food, they will give you as much as they want.

It is this sea that restricts those people, but our ship has broken the limit of the sea, so these advantages will be taken up by us, now, you know the value of the Happiness! ”

Even if Xi Junmai, who has followed Sun Xiangfu for more than half a year, is used to his whimsical speech, but when he hears Sun Xiangfu's descriptions, he can't help but get excited in his heart, it turns out that wealth can come so easily, thinking that at the beginning, he agreed to be Sun Xiangfu's guard just for the sake of two monthly salaries, which is a great loss.

"I decided, I will play mahjong in the future, and I will insist on playing the same shot, and if I don't have money, I will go out to the sea ······"

"Look at your little bit of interest, after you go back, bring the people who came from Shen Tuyong out to run a few times, we want to build a fleet with long-distance sailing ability in the south, and the personnel will use them as the skeleton, and then recruit some Lingnan people, even Jiaozhi people, like the Happiness, I will let the Chang'an Shipyard keep manufacturing, armed equipment, and all of them are on par with the escort team, I don't plan to let the emperor know about this."

"Do you have the intention of rebelling?" Xi Junmai's face stiffened when he heard this.

"No, just leave a way out for yourself, in case I upset the emperor that day, and he wants to kill me, I must have a place to escape!" Sun Xiangfu shook his head very calmly and said.

Xi Junmai knew when he heard this, he knew that Sun Xiangfu had always been afraid of death, and it was nothing to leave one more means to save his life, after all, a companion is like a tiger!

"How much hush money are you going to give me for telling me such a big secret?"

"Money is a thing, when the fleet is established, how much do you want? My family's treasury of accounts will be open to you in the future. Sun Xiangfu said with an indifferent look.

"Then it's decided, but in terms of training people, I'm not as good as Zhao Long, you should hand over this matter to him, as for me, it's better to be by your side, because I'm afraid of boredom!" Xi Junmai said with a smile.

"Okay, in the future, Zhao Long will be the head coach of our escort team, but our training base can't be placed under the nose of Yue Gong." Sun Xingfu also agreed with Xi Junmai's statement and nodded.

"Where is that? You won't tell me it's Chang'an, will you! ”

"Chang'an has three hundred guards, how about you look at this Yazhou?" Sun Xiangfu pointed to the huge island road at the end of his sight, which was full of coconut groves.

Yazhou is also under the jurisdiction of Feng An, the governor of Lingnan Province at this time, but the population density here is more sparse than that of the inland, and the total number of people is probably only 10,000 people, and they are all barbarian forces in the form of tribes.

Sun Xiangfu values Lingnan, and naturally also values Yazhou, where the climate is also suitable for planting various crops, and can build a larger, better sea port, with this as the starting point, the distance to the Nanyang countries will be much closer.

"A lot of coconuts, it should be a nice place."

This is Xi Junmai's intuitive impression of Yazhou, Sun Xiangfu heard this, but remembered the coconut candy that he liked to eat in later generations, perhaps, let the craftsmen study and study, and now they can make it.

A day later, the Happiness docked at the Guangzhou Bay Wharf again, Feng Ang personally went to the wharf to see the things that Sun Xiangfu brought back from Jiaozhi, but he smiled, elephants, there are a lot of places in the west of Lingnan, if he wants to, pass on an order, someone will send it over.

As for the agarwood tree, there are also in Lingnan, and there are a lot of them, you know, the court and the magnates in ancient times had the habit of using incense, where did such a large amount of incense come from? Lingnan is one of the main production areas, less than 100 miles outside Guangzhou, there is an agarwood forest, after learning the news, Sun Xiangfu let Feng Ang give this agarwood forest to himself, and transplanted all the agarwood trees he brought back.

Li Chunfeng and Xuanzang, who were dealing with these patients all day long, asserted that the disease of the first batch of drug testers could be eradicated within a month, which made the potbelly patients in the camp smile with joy.

However, Sun Xiangfu did not stay in the sick camp, he asked people to select the Champa rice seeds have all been soaked in water and germinated, more than 50,000 acres of land, also smoothed and slippery, after letting go of the fertilizer water, dried by the sun, all are thin mud soup, basically reached the best state that Sun Xiangfu wanted, taking advantage of the morning when the sun was not too big, he led the residents of the peninsula to start sowing.

The inhabitants of the peninsula are not complicated, except for the more than 300 strong men who decided to follow the escort to run the boat, and the 500 Lingnan aborigines selected by Sun Xiangfu from the labor force of the open field, the peninsula is much larger than Xingfu Village, and these aborigines' requirements for houses are also very simple, yes, they can be regarded as settling down for the time being.

The history of cultivation in Lingnan is also very long, and most farmers know how to grow rice, but the planting method that Sun Xiangfu taught them today is somewhat unique, a method of throwing seedlings without bending down.

This is a lake and marsh area, and no one has ever cultivated it, and the fertility can be so strong that the ripe fields in Guanzhong can be compared, so Sun Xiangfu has no worries about fertility at all, so that the big guy can scatter the small seedlings in all corners of the field at will, even if they are planted densely, they are not afraid, but can promote the spread of pollen.

For this kind of labor without bending over, the farmers are very willing to accept, more than a thousand young and strong, plus a lot of half-grown children, it only took two mornings and evenings to scatter all the seedlings in the field, but Sun Xiangfu picked out the rice seeds can be 5,000 stones, not only here in Baiyun Lake, Feng An's former fields, and many fields of tribes near Guangzhou, as long as they can be sown, Sun Xiangfu has asked people to scatter them.

According to the amount of seeds, about a pound of rice seeds can be planted in an acre of land, Sun Xiangfu with 5,000 stone rice breeding, almost can sow 600,000 acres of rice, of course, these 600,000 acres of rice fields are not as good as Sun Xiangfu made out of this field, some even directly in the wet land of the stream, but even so, its output is enough for the people of Lingnan to eat with an open stomach for a few years.

Of course, throwing seedlings does not mean that there is nothing to do, reasonable control of the water in the rice field, it is very necessary, when the field is opened, Sun Xiangfu let people dig the ditch around the field in the area, as well as the cross ditch, in the ditch next to the Baiyun Lake, there are treadmills, the waterwheels are usually placed in the pergola on the ridge, when you want to use it, on the shelf, people sit on the shelf of the pergola, and you can easily tread water in the ditch.

Although the sun in June in the south is very poisonous, two or three days of treading water in the seedling field can be enough to keep the seedlings growing rapidly.

After only two treading water, the farmers roughly knew the needs of the rice, Sun Xiangfu did not need to organize, when the time came, they would go to the lake to tread water, and the children regarded this as a kind of entertainment.

At the same time, the construction of the peninsula has not stopped, the cement slope protection around the island has also been built, and a lot of hydrophilic platforms have been built in all directions to extend into the lake, in addition to the original lychee, longan yellow bark and other fruit trees on the island, the excess plants have been shoveled, and some places have been planted with melons, fruits and vegetables, and in larger places, rows of brick houses have begun to be built, anyway, after Feng Ang sent these laborers to Sun Xiangfu, he did not say when he would take them back.

The southern coast likes to blow typhoons from time to time, in the past, the aborigines were built sheds, and then built after the collapse, Sun Xiangfu felt that it should be built solidly, so as not to collapse, so that the bricks here are burned very large, if it is not for the use of stone is very laborious, Sun Xiangfu wants to imitate the later generations of Chaoshan area to build houses with large stone walls, and live for several generations will not collapse.
