As soon as the day dawned, Mao Wenlong and the nine of them immediately left the room, picked up their bags and set off for the seaside pier three miles away. All the horses were given to Hanhu, and the carriage could not be hired in the early morning, so Mao Wenlong and his family had to set off on foot.

The morning sun was soft, without the slightest heat, and a few people hiked on the desolate Gobi Desert, and the sea breeze was very cool. After more than half a month of fleeing, Mao Wenlong finally escaped from the Dongjiang River without danger.

Chen Lan has been snuggling up to Mao Wenlong's side, and his pretty face exudes happiness. During these days of fugitive, her relationship with Mao Wenlong deepened day by day, and the two really got to know each other better.

The thought of leaving this place where almost every day was fighting, Chen Lan had deep expectations for a stable life in the future.

This kind of precarious day and every day has to be fearful is not her ideal life as a weak woman. She used to live in a happy home and never experienced wind and rain, maybe she would feel that she would never encounter such a life in her life.

But since the fall of her family, her experience in the past year has made her grow from a deep lady who does not step into the door to a mature woman.

Now that she is a wife, Mao Wenlong's changes after coming back to life gave her a great surprise. Mao Wenlong's thoughtfulness, care and love made Chen Lan feel deep love.

Although the husband in front of him is about to have nothing, Chen Lan firmly believes that he must be extraordinary. The resurrection of the dead alone speaks for itself.

In Chen Lan's cranky thoughts, the short three-mile road was completed unconsciously. The pier in front of you is said to be a pier, but it is better to say that it is a natural port.

There are almost no traces of artificial excavation in the entire pier, which is completely natural and very small. I don't know if Mao Wenlong and others came early, or if there was no one at this pier.

At a glance, I saw a large ship docked alone on the dock, and there were no other ships docked.

As soon as Mao Wenlong and the others arrived at the dock, they saw that the three brothers of the Lijia family were already waiting on the shore, and when they saw Mao Wenlong arrive as promised, the three of them greeted them with little mimi.

"Mao Gongzi is here, the ship and supplies have been prepared, hurry up and follow us on the ship, and you can sail at any time." The boss Lihui stepped forward to invite, and his expression was very polite.

"Brother Lao Li bothered." Mao Wenlong replied with a smiling face, and then took Chen Lan's little hand and boarded the ship at the invitation of Lihui!

The big ship was very old, and although the hull was clean, it couldn't hide the tinkering places. Especially the sails, which were patched densely.

After Mao Wenlong got on the boat, he glanced around, and his face showed doubt. He was very skeptical that such a broken ship could really go to sea?

Boss Lihui had been paying attention to Mao Wenlong for a long time, and seeing that he seemed to be dissatisfied with his own ship at this moment, his face suddenly showed a dissatisfied look.

You know, although the ship he built looks dilapidated, this ship is undoubtedly the best one here at the moment.

"Young Master Mao, don't look at my old ship, but this is the safest ship here at present. Our three brothers have been running on this boat for nearly ten years, and there has never been any accident! ”

Lihui expressed dissatisfaction with Mao Wenlong's suspicions, and at the same time, in order to dispel his doubts, he also shook out his glorious deeds.

Since arriving at the dock, Mao Wenlong has already seen that there is no other ship here except this ship. Therefore, it is an indisputable fact that Lihui said that the boat he built was the best boat in the town, and Mao Wenlong had no excuse for this.

As for Lihui's words, even if Mao Wenlong doesn't trust him in his heart at the moment, he can only swallow bitterness in his stomach. After all, there was only one ship here, and he had no choice.

In addition to the three brothers of the Lijia family, there were also more than 20 sailors on the ship, and those who did this line of work were all hard work, and these 20 or so sailors were also young men.

The bare upper body and the skin are all black and shiny, and at first glance, people know that it is caused by the wind and sun at sea all year round. It can also be seen from this that these sailors should be experienced old fritters.

Mao Wenlong is quite relieved about these sailors, not to mention the quality of the ship, with these experienced sailors at the helm, at least he can be a little more at ease.

The three brothers of the Lijia family obviously cherished the business in front of them, and even gave the best room on the ship to Mao Wenlong and others. After arranging the accommodation of the guests, Lihui immediately shouted and set sail.

Four huge swayers went into the water, and twenty young and strong sailors, shouting loud slogans, shook desperately. With the concerted efforts of twenty people, the ship began to slowly sail away from the dock and began to row towards the depths of the sea.

As long as the boat is about 20 meters from the shore, the sails can be raised and sailed by the wind. At this time, the rocking sailors can rest. Just adjust the direction of the sails at the command of the captain.

After Mao Wenlong's nine people left the shore, they all gathered on the deck, looking at the endless sea, and everyone's hearts suddenly opened up a lot.

At this time, the sea was calm, and the hull of the ship was quite stable when sailing, and it was not as shaky as Mao Wenlong imagined.

Lihui handed over the helm to the two brothers, and he personally leaned over with the dry food he had already prepared.

"Mao Gongzi, you haven't eaten it in the morning! Come, come, and taste the humble food on our ship. ”

The food that Lihui brought was actually sashimi, which was much unexpected by Mao Wenlong. However, Chen Jisheng and others looked strange.

The so-called people who eat the sea by the sea can only go out to sea to fish when they have no food. This is also why the so-called peasant uprisings in the coastal areas do not break out even in the year of famine.

The people near the sea have no land, and most of them make a living by fishing, and as long as the weather is not bad, they can get enough food to survive in the vast sea.

It's a pity that due to the ban on the sea, the people don't have any advanced fishing machines, and the harvest at sea is often not much, and it is only enough for one family to maintain food and clothing.

In ancient times, there was almost no pollution in the ocean, and this fish was safe to live and bearish, and after Mao Wenlong tasted it for the first time, he couldn't stop. The fresh fish produced in the unpolluted ocean is tender and sweet, and it is not at all comparable to the sashimi of later generations.

Although there was no sauce, Mao Wenlong still swept away all the sashimi. After eating, I sighed with a look of unfinished business, and when I opened my mouth, I praised it for being delicious.
