"Is Nima congested in the capital? The water is also blocked! "When it was still about a kilometer from the city wall, the Zhenzhou had to lower its sails and throw the iron anchor into the water, because the western half of the river was blocked, and the ships in front of it could not move. The lookout said it was because everyone was waiting to dock at the dock, and the dock's throughput was not large enough, so they had to queue up! Hong Tao had heard that Lin'an City was the most prosperous capital in the world in this era, but he didn't expect it to be so prosperous, and even the Qiantang River was blocked. Not only is the upward channel in the north of the river blocked, but even the downward channel in the south of the Yangtze River is also blocked.

"Brother Hong is in a hurry, before my brother came, he had already asked my brother to go to the city to report the news, as long as he saw our sea boat, he would come to pick it up." Luo Youde was quite comfortable, standing on the stern of the Zhenzhou, looking around shyly, looking around with a shy chest, looking at the look on his face, obviously feeling that he was standing taller than others and was very proud. It is true that there are many ships that can be bigger than Zhenzhou on the river, but there are really no ships that can be taller than Zhenzhou. The three tall masts and the cobweb-like rigging made everyone on the boat around them involuntarily take a few more looks, and their curiosity would stare at them.

"Lao Luo, don't you have a younger brother?" Hong Tao's memory is still good, he remembers that Luo Youde told him that the family even has a concubine and a concubine, he is the youngest, why did he run out of a younger brother?

"It's my uncle's son, cousin."

"Ahh Leave the matter of sacrificing the horse to your cousin! Hong Tao was stunned for a moment after hearing this, and then involuntarily turned his face and looked at Luo Youde again. He wants to reevaluate this guy, it's too ruthless! It's cost-effective to catch the old thief and pinch out the pee. Luo Dacai even changed his surname for this nephew. Abandon your family and business, endure humiliation and help this guy get a family business. This kind of uncle is already rare. In the end, the matter of carrying the black pot and thunder, you have to let Luo Dacai's son be on top, this Nima is too inhuman. Hong Tao has always felt that he is lacking in virtue enough, but Luo Youde's actions made him feel as if he was suddenly a lot purer, and as soon as he remembered that he also had an uncle with good feelings, Hong Tao became wary of this Luo Youde.

"My uncle had only two sons in his family. has never been famous, if I can get him an official and a half-job, I, as a nephew, can be regarded as fulfilling my uncle's thoughts. This matter is still the blessing of Brother Hong, if there is no Brother Hong, he will travel thousands of miles to exchange for God...... Grass mud horse, cousin didn't have this good opportunity, for my brother, I thanked my uncle here. Luo Youde definitely didn't understand what Hong Tao meant, and his explanation was another mode of thinking. In his opinion, the matter of sacrificing horses to the official family is a once-in-a-lifetime good thing, and letting his cousin go is precisely because he has a good relationship with his uncle, if he is replaced by someone else. He wasn't willing to give it.

“…… Ah, you're welcome...... As easy as lifting a finger. It's not enough to worry about it...... "Hong Tao just included Luo Youde in the ranks of people who can't be deeply acquainted, and when he heard him say this, he quickly pulled him out of it again. It turned out that I made a mistake for a long time, and I thought it was not worth taking risks, and people thought it was a beauty difference, and this thing couldn't be explained, so I could only accept my fate.

"Brother Luo, what are these boats for? Is it so much every day? "It's okay to be idle, Hong Tao's curiosity has come up again, there are too many boats on the river, and being idle is idle, figuring out one thing, he can understand more about the Southern Song Dynasty." It is the center of water transportation. In addition to sea boats, most of these ships were used to transport bamboo and wood for the construction of houses in the city. The canal to the north is more lively, mostly by boats carrying grain, stretching for more than ten miles. Lin'an City is known as the East Gate Cuisine, the West Gate Water, the South Gate Firewood, and the North Gate Rice. Look over there, this door is a holly gate, and there are vegetable patches outside the door. On the west side of the city is the West Lake, and there is a water gate to lead water into the city for the life of the officials and the people. "If Luo Youde is born in the next life, Hong Tao must hire him to his own travel company, he is a good tour guide, not only will answer your questions, but also not like Luo Dacai to ask and answer, he will also give you an extension, spread out, how can you understand how to say.

"Oh...... What kind of door is near the pier? After Luo Youde's introduction, Hong Tao probably has a general understanding of Lin'an City. Not to mention, the emperors of all dynasties are not stupid, and they are quite good at choosing the capital. If it is more convenient than transportation, Lin'an is not worse than Jiankang City, one is by the Yangtze River, and the other is sandwiched between the Grand Canal and the Qiantang River, each with its own merits.

"That is Chongxin Gate, the city of the Bo Division is built here, there are dozens of rice lines in the rice market bridge outside the door, it is one of the two major rice cities in Lin'an, and the other is outside the North Gate. It is also a fish and crab market, where fishing boats from the sea sell their catch, and there are many Tan people who come here to sell their catch, but they can only sell their catch to the guilds on the shore, not to go ashore. "Luo Youde doesn't even need a telescope to accurately tell which place has a market, and it is not much better than Hutong strings.

"Lao Luo, take a look, is it the ship of the City Ship Division, and it is also wearing black shoulders, which is similar to that of Guangzhou Port." Hong Tao held the binoculars and looked around according to Luo Youde's instructions, and suddenly the camera slid past a car and boat, and the few people standing on it were quite familiar to him, mainly because they were dressed more familiarly.

“…… The man in the green shirt at the bow of the boat is my cousin, surnamed Shen and named Wen. Luo Youde took the binoculars and looked at it, and determined that the ship was the ship of the City Shipping Division, and he also recognized the person standing on the ship.

The car and ship were very nimble, drilling back and forth in a boat, and the people on it kept greeting the familiar shipowner, and soon came to the side of the Zhenzhou. A man in a green robe, a black gauze hat, and a wing on one side stood on the bow of the ship and greeted Luo Youde on the Zhenzhou after a few words, and climbed up along the rope net. Hong Tao knew from his hat that this was a civil official, probably some kind of leader in the city, but he still couldn't understand what he said to Luo Youde.

Luo Youde didn't introduce Hong Tao to that official, because Hong Tao had already told him that it was best not to pull the horse sacrifice on himself, just treat himself as a cargo ship transporting horses, and don't show up if he can. Therefore, the work of beckoning these people to check the horses was done by Luo Youde alone, and Hong Tao and Bo Jiao stood on the stern tower and watched coldly.

Like Luo Youde, the official didn't dislike the smell of the front cabin at all, he got into it and stayed for about a quarter of an hour before coming out, although Hong Tao couldn't understand what he and Luo Youde were saying, but judging from the expression on his face, he was still very happy, and he didn't close his mouth when he smiled, he should be very satisfied with these horses. After a short time, the officer and his two men climbed out of the boat again, got back on the boat, turned around and rowed away.

"Brother Hong, can you keep up with the car and boat, the matter of sacrificing horses cannot be decided by the City Ship Division, and we have to report to the chief official, we can dock at the dock of the City Ship Division first and wait for the news." Luo Youde waited for the official to leave, and gave a thumbs up to Hong Tao playfully, this action was still learned from Hong Tao, it seems that they had a good conversation just now.

The Zhenzhou immediately lifted anchor and hoisted its sails, and began to move forward with the car and ship. The car and ship did not run far, but helped clear the channel in front of the Zhenzhou, and bombed all the ships waiting in line to enter the port to the inside of the main channel, making room for the Zhenzhou to move forward, just like the police cars of later generations opened the way. Following it, under the envious and jealous eyes of the owner, the Zhenzhou was overpowered, and soon got into front of the dock.

In fact, the owners of those who were overtaken did not lose money, and the sailors on the mast of the Zhenzhou flew around with the help of rigging, hanging and putting away one side of the sail, and they were extremely skilled, not so much that they were playing the sails, but playing acrobatics, and won a lot of applause along the way. The Song people are very entertaining, the blockage of the ship is a few miles away, they basically did not scold the mother, and the spirit of the head to see the lively coaxing, for the Zhenzhou this kind of sea ship that has never been seen is also pointing fingers at the comments, very big country national demeanor, not strange.

In order to make enough space for the Zhenzhou, those patrol boats and vehicles and ships are also busy, barely squeezing out a piece of space, but fortunately, the water depth here is no problem.

Watching the Manu drive the horses from the cabin to the dock one by one, the people around gathered to watch the excitement. One or two Pagatti Veyrons can't stop the residents of Lin'an City, especially the merchants on the docks who often travel from north to south. But as soon as it came, it was a boat, fifteen tall horses, which was like a group of luxury cars suddenly driving out of the West Railway Station in Beijing in later generations, and no one could look sideways. And their focus soon shifted from the horse to the owner of the horse, who is so rich and well-connected? What about getting so many luxury cars at once? Obviously, it is the two standing on the stern of the big ship, Luo Youde is nothing unusual, the standard Song people, Hong Tao is a little strange, he has a monk's head, and he dresses even more strangely, that temperament, demeanor and Song people are incompatible, anyway, how do you look like a big Song person, but it looks really similar.

"Lao Luo, do you want to leave two horses for the two of us? Riding a tall horse in Lin'an City to walk the wind, Lin'an City let you ride a horse? "Hong Tao came over in the wind and waves, and he didn't react to other people's pointing and pointing for a long time, no matter how open Lin'an people are, there are no American reporters and wolves and tigers in later generations, it's really not a thing. At this time, he still felt that he was not good enough, and wanted to ride a high-headed horse with Luo Youde around the streets of Lin'an City to see if he could meet a few peerless beauties or something. I used to read books in other people's books that traveled through ancient times, and a guy came to a peerless beauty, why did he cross over himself, and he didn't even see one that was enough for 80 points?
