Chapter 447: Smell
Liu Yong listened to the words of the real estate mountain, nodded with satisfaction, and said: "Okay, brother Fang, just plan according to what you say, everything here will be handed over to you first, and if you have any questions and needs, tell Wang Xian." He's my supervisor here. ”
"Okay." The house mountain arched his hand to Liu Yong.
After going down the mountain, the group went to the surrounding area of the island to investigate, and the experts who built the port suggested that the port be built in the west of the island, which was also approved by the house.
Liu Yong is basically satisfied with these advance decisions. It's just that the construction of the port is a top priority, and only when the port is good can the building materials be brought in.
Of course, there are many materials that can be obtained locally, because this is a tropical area, with developed forests, rich in some noble nanmu, which is a good building material, and you can go directly to Malay Island to harvest.
Liu Yong wrote a letter and asked Wang Xian to send someone to meet the king, and the timber needed for the construction was harvested from the country of Srivijaya Qi. What was not available on the rest of the islands was transported by boat from the Great Song Dynasty.
Liu Yong gave the order, and when he came back, he hoped to complete the launching of the port and municipal government. Then there will be a temporary palace, that is, the original town hall will be renovated first. It is used as a palace for him every time he comes. After all, the city will be built for at least ten years. Can't afford to delay too long.
After making arrangements on Lion City Island, Liu Yong is about to set off.
Everyone on the island went to the beach to see them off, and Liu Yong told them to hurry up, and the sooner the city was built, the more advantageous it would be. In Liu Yong's heart, although he has a certain understanding of the direction of history, when he is in it, it is different. With this posture now, it's not like when Mongolia will fight.
It is the guarantee of him and his family that it is built here.
The Eternal led more than seventy ships to continue sailing towards the Persian Gulf. They had to cross the Straits of Malacca first.
The sea is still calm in winter. There is almost no rain. When the fleet reached the port of Khomeini, they had not encountered a single major storm along the way, except for some light rain.
Originally, Ouyang Lanlan wanted to see the strength of the storm, but she was disappointed.
Yun'er and Su Erniang don't know any storms, it's too scary.
When they arrived at Khomeini Port, Jia Gang was responsible for selling goods, and Yun'er and Su Erniang were responsible for accompanying Ouyang Lanlan to play and tour in the small Khomeini Port. When she first arrived in a foreign country, Ouyang Lanlan was curious about everything.
It's a pity that Liu Yong didn't accompany them, and he was going to study the Southern Voyage and gold mining with the gold mining leader and the first mate Li Kui on the Yongshi. There were about a hundred gold miners, two in the lead.
It was not that Li Kui had never done the voyage to the south, but they had not until the Somali Peninsula.
"Well, are there a lot of pirates there?" Liu Yong interrupted Li Kui's words and asked.
"Yes, Captain, there are many pirates there, and they are powerful." Li Kui said.
"No matter how strong they are, can they be as powerful as my artillery?" Liu Yong said with a smile.
"Well, of course there isn't." Li Kui said.
"Then we don't have to be afraid of anything, you just have to take care of the sails for me." Liu Yong said.
"Yes, Captain." Li Kui arched his hand and said.
Liu Yong and the backbones of various departments had another meeting for a while, and Ouyang Lanlan, Yun'er and Su Erniang would also come. Liu Yong dispersed the meeting, and the fleet still had to repair the entire Khomeini port for more than ten days, and it would take some supplies to replenish, and it would take half a year to reach the destination.
Everything is done by someone, and it is done step by step, and there will be no mistakes. Liu Yong was also idle. During the day, when I had nothing to do, I got off the boat with the three ladies and went to the city to stroll, eat delicious food, drink wine. It's very laid-back.
Ouyang Lanlan was overjoyed, because she was a woman who liked to travel very much. She didn't say that she was inferior to Da Song, but she just liked the meaning of this foreign country.
She wanted to taste anything she could eat, and when she saw a blonde and blue-eyed Western woman, she was going to go up and talk to her, anyway, there was a little translator by her side, little Muhammad. I can talk to anyone.
Liu Yong, Su Erniang and Yun'er were eating here, and Ouyang Lanlan had already talked with a European girl, and they were talking enthusiastically.
Liu Yong sighed: "This lady of mine seems to be a born diplomat. ”
After talking to others, he finally said goodbye with other people's etiquette, that is, hugging his face. Yun'er pouted when she saw it. If it were her, she would definitely not have such intimate contact with an outsider, especially if she was close to her face.
"Xianggong, those foreign women all have a fox smell on them!" Yun'er said to Liu Yong with a sense of matter.
Liu Yong just laughed, as Yun'er said, those women do have a smell of squeamishness, or the smell of mutton, which may have something to do with their eating habits.
As soon as Ouyang Lanlan came back, Yun'er asked her and said, "Sister Ouyang, does that woman smell like a commotion?" ”
Ouyang Lanlan was stunned for a moment and said with a smile: "No? It's a little bit fragrant. ”
Yun'er was stunned when she heard this, stuck out her tongue and said, "Sister Ouyang is a liar, right?" ”
"What did I lie to you? Don't believe you to smell it yourself? Ouyang Lanlan said with a smile.
"I'm not going, I'm afraid I'll faint from the smoke." Yun'er pouted and said.
"It really doesn't smell." Ouyang Lanlan said very seriously.
"Anyway, I passed by some aunts on the street, and they smelled fishy." Yun'er said.
"Ahem! The ones you are talking about are all aunts, old women, but in fact, young women don't have any smell on their bodies. Ouyang Lanlan said.
"Really? Oh, I see, I thought all foreign women had that smell of, hehe. Yun'er smiled.
"You're all alone, aren't you? Ha ha. Ouyang Lanlan laughed.
"Hey, you two eat. It's all cold. Su Erniang said with a smile.
And Liu Yong was eating while watching the two ladies bickering.
Ouyang Lanlan took two bites and said to Liu Yong: "Xianggong, the woman I talked to her just now, she said that she is a Roman. Where is Rome? ”
Liu Yong thought for a while and said, "Well, didn't you ask the woman?" ”
"I forgot to ask about this. However, she said that she longed for the Great Song Dynasty, and she said that where they were very dark, they were all nobles oppressing the toiling masses, and there were wars and barbarism. She had heard that the Great Song Dynasty was a country of etiquette, and it was also very beautiful, and there were many delicacies. She yearns for it. Ouyang Lanlan said.
"Oh, then invite her to come with us?" Liu Yong said with a smile.
"I don't dare to make my own decisions about this, it's up to the public to decide." Ouyang Lanlan said.
