Chapter 377: Just around the corner

Although the Ping'an was low-key enough when it traveled, it did not hold any ceremonies, and did not let the Guangzhou Assassins come to see them off, but it still successfully attracted the attention of almost everyone in the entire Panyu City.

It can't be helped, who made it more than one size bigger than all the ships you can see here, and it's hard for others not to pay attention.

Especially after it easily shook off many of the boats of Fanshang who wanted to follow it so that there would be more safety on the way back, there were more rumors about the Ping'an in the city of Panyu.

In fact, the minds of these people are very well understood, in this era of naval battles and anticipatory battles, the Ping'an, which is large in size and has a large number of people, has enough advantages, just looking at it is reassuring.

In addition, many knowledgeable people can see that this big ship is still made of luxurious sandalwood, and its sturdiness is beyond imagination.

With it as a rear, no pirate ship would dare to insult it, and this is still in a state where all the weapons on the ship are put away. If they were to see the entire ship's armament, it would certainly be a different view.

It's just that its speed is still beyond everyone's expectations, and in the end, it couldn't keep up with the wind with enough power, but was pulled farther and farther.

As for the fact that the owner of the ship is Lin Sen, it was quickly figured out, this thing Lin Sen didn't want to keep secret, and unlike the process of building a ship, there are too many secrets involved, and maybe it can be used as a live advertisement in the future.

And he himself is not in the barracks, so I am afraid that I will not be able to hide the eyes of those who have a heart, so I simply went with him. It's just that it can have such a big sensational effect, which Lin Sen can't imagine.

And Lin Sen, who was the focus of everyone's discussions, took no time to easily adapt to life on the ship, and he didn't even have any symptoms of seasickness.

The students who accompanied him were only slightly unwell at first, and they did not have vomiting and diarrhea, but among the guards under him who were originally good at water, they actually showed symptoms of seasickness.

Isn't it said that seasickness has a lot to do with people's sense of balance? People with a better sense of balance are more likely to get seasick, which belongs to the brain's spontaneous protective mechanism.

But Lin Sen, a guy who can play a spin around the ice and land smoothly, can easily do all kinds of difficult parkour moves, has a strong balance ability, and doesn't have a reaction at all, it seems that this statement is not very valid.

It may also be because the Ping An is too stable, especially on the main hull, no matter what kind of waves it encounters, it has the least shaking amplitude. The crews of those who have sailed and seen all kinds of ships have praised this ship for this. It's just that the seasick guards don't think so.

Life on board was relatively fresh at first, and seeing all kinds of natural beauty that had not been damaged by later generations of industrialization, Lin Sen's mood would become extraordinarily beautiful. But after watching it for a long time, I can't help but feel a little bored.

Fortunately, they basically sailed along the coastline along the way, and they would go ashore for supplies every once in a while, and Lin Sen could also take the guards with them to see the different customs along the way and see the various flavors, which made him always look forward to this voyage.

And those crew members who were temporarily recruited were the opposite of Lin Sen's mental journey, and the longer they sailed, the happier they became.

This is not simply because they have long been accustomed to the boredom of sailing life and know how to solve themselves, but when they first received the mission, they even came with a mortal heart.

Because the ship is completely new, and the ship type is even more thought up by a fierce general who has never been in contact with sailing, and let them drive such an unproven guy to open up a very new channel, no matter how it sounds, it is a life-or-death situation.

But after they came to this ship, they first gave them a reassurance of the huge hull and extravagant materials. After they really started sailing, they had a more intuitive handling feeling, both speed and dexterity, as well as the unparalleled smoothness, which made them completely relieved.

With confidence and a good mood, they can feel more of the many conveniences of this ship, such as time-saving and labor-saving operations, whether it is lifting the sail or carrying goods, it is very fast. And, of course, the many powerful weapons hidden in the hull of the ship, all of which made them love this big guy more and more.

The large amount of grain and fresh water loaded on the ship made them even more confident. There are many things in it that even the self-proclaimed well-informed ones have never heard of or seen.

For example, Lin Sen prepared the prickly pear for everyone as a snack, as well as the magical mysterious fruit, and for example, in the fish fillet porridge that Lin Sen was eating, the dehydrated vegetables that could be seen were fresh and cute again.

These are all new things that Lin Sen has prepared for this journey of exploration and discovery.

Considering that the legendary Spice Island only has a general direction, the local monsoon and ocean currents are completely unimpressive, even the first mate and navigator of the merchant fleet who have heard some rumors are not clear, and can only lead them to the nearby seas, and the time required to find the sea at sea is certainly not short, and it is not impossible to drift for a few months without luck.

In this case, the Ping An naturally needed more reserves, food and fresh water were the foundation of life, prickly pears and other necessities could be said to be necessities, and commodities used for trade became secondary.

With Spice Island, are you afraid that there will be nothing to sell to make money, this thing can be used directly in Chang'an City as hard currency, and you will never have to worry about the possibility of not being sold.

Compared with trading with other countries, this kind of trade is really profitable.

For this reason, what can really be regarded as cargo in the cabin is the sucrose that Lin Sen made out himself, and some of the goods that are used as ballast and placed in the watertight compartment, and the rest of the space, including even part of the space of the two auxiliary hulls, are used to load compressed dry food and fresh water.

Of course, considering the pressure that may be caused to the beam, such as the uneven buoyancy, how many materials are placed in the two auxiliary hulls are carefully calculated by the students, and the total amount is relatively limited.

After a long voyage, they were almost in the area of the so-called Spice Island in Lin Sen's memory.

Along the way, in Hepu, in Yazhou, in Champa and the so-called Kunlun Island, the Ping An caused quite a stir, but compared to other ships, the Ping An was a little too big.

After leaving Kunlun Island and continuing southward, they slowly moved away from the busy route and headed towards their true goal.

It wasn't until Lin Sen relied on his super vision that he found two adjacent volcanic islands in front of him, that he could finally be sure that he should be not mistaken, and there should be Spice Island in front of him!

But when I turned around the bay, I found that there were already several ships parked there, and it was clear that they belonged to the big food merchants. Is it misplaced?
