The proud Xu Jiao made Shen Yue incredible, his mouth opened slightly, and he didn't know what words to use to describe the shock in his heart.

Whoever told him that the ancients had no knowledge, Shen Yue would definitely not hesitate to slap him with a big mouth!

"How, take me out to sea? As long as you take me out to sea, you can rest assured, we will become relatives, and these hundred soldiers are my dowry, under your command! Seeing that Shen Yue didn't answer, Xu Jiao couldn't help but feel a little anxious and began to promise benefits.

Shen Yue didn't take her, and if he wanted to go to sea, it was absolutely impossible.

"I'll talk about getting married later." Shen Yue's cheeks twitched, and he said helplessly, "Let's sum it up." ”

"You don't organize goods when you go to sea, are you going to do that business? I will give more than half of the soldiers, and you will give me half of the looted property! Xu Jiao's mind jumped so much that Shen Yue didn't know how to deal with it.

"Sister, we're not going to rob."

"Why are you going to sea without robbing you?" Xu Jiao obviously didn't believe it.

"I said fishing, do you believe me?" If you want this girl to cooperate with you, you can't talk about the purpose.

Shen Yue has never said the purpose, that is, people are very afraid of what he is going to do.

"Fishing? Shen Yue, don't treat me as a three-year-old child. Xu Jiao naturally didn't believe it.

"You promise not to tell anyone, I'll tell you the truth." Shen Yue sighed, thinking about whether to drag the girl in front of him to a place where no one was there and become his own person.

Women in this era, as long as they are slept with by men, will die.

After weighing the comparison of the combat strength of the two sides, Shen Yue finally gave up this tempting idea.

"Say it, I promise!" Xu Jiao's eyes lit up.

Curiosity is something we all have.

"You know I have people build giant crossbows, right? That thing, although the firing range is long, compared with the Hongyi cannon and the thousand-pound Franc cannon, the difference is too far, and the power is also insufficient, so it is not suitable for combat. For fishing, it's completely sufficient. Shen Yue leaned into Xu Jiao's ear and whispered.

Xu Jiao looked around and breathed a sigh of relief when she saw that there was no one around.

Even if he has a marriage contract with Shen Yue, he has not yet married, and his behavior is too intimate.

The hot breath exhaled by Shen Yue made Xu Jiao's ears instantly hot, and the strength in the whole person seemed to be drained.

"Fishing? What is fishing for? You wouldn't expect fishing to feed the Shen family's hundreds of people, two hundred people, and many artisans, right? Seeing Shen Yue leaning towards her while talking, Xu Jiao took a big step back.

glared at Shen Yue fiercely.

This disciple repeats his old ways, can't he wait until he gets married and then despise himself?

"Whales, you know, right? It's the biggest fish in the sea! Shen Yue's words made Xu Jiao's big eyes widen in horror, and her slender white hand covered her mouth and retreated again and again.

Xu Jiao pointed at Shen Yue with one hand, but couldn't speak: "You, you ......"

"I'm not going to tell you, you have to know." Shen Yue was helpless.

Huaxia is not a European barbarian, since ancient times, there has been no whaling activities, but after the founding of New China, whaling for a while, and later gave up.

On the one hand, Chinese food is far more abundant than other peoples in the world, and on the other hand, the fuel for lighting does not need to be extracted from marine organisms.

On the other hand, there are coastal fishermen, many of whom think that this is the descendant of the Dragon King!

Shen Yue wants to kill the descendants of the Dragon Lord, how can Xu Jiao not be frightened?

"Why are you catching...... You know, that's the incarnation of the Dragon Lord......" Xu Jiao said tremblingly.

"Huh!" In Shen Yue's laughter, there is a lot of helplessness, the ancients were smart in some aspects, but ignorant in many aspects.

"What are you laughing at!" Hearing Shen Yue's laughter, Xu Jiao was extremely dissatisfied.

"Where is the whale the incarnation of the Dragon King? It's just a huge fish! Shen Yue knew that whales were mammals, not fishes, and at this time, he had to go against his will, "Such a huge fish is usually four or five zhang long, weighing five or six hundred stones or even more......

"We don't lack meat to eat!" Xu Jiao felt that Shen Yue was a little scary, and wanted to persuade Shen Yue to give up whaling, and she was even more afraid that Shen Yue would offend the Dragon King.

"Eating meat is one thing, I saw from miscellaneous books that whales are treasures, with a thick layer of grease under the skin, that layer of grease can be used to make candles and other things, meat can be eaten, and internal organs can be used to raise pigs and chickens......" Shen Yue didn't dare to say too much in detail, seeing Xu Jiao's eyes more frightened, worried that it scared this girl, it was no problem if she didn't go, her subordinates would have to cry if they didn't go, "Those red-haired ghosts, their imperial court organized a fleet to hunt whales at sea......"

The Dutch now have at least a hundred whaling ships a year, and the English are no less frequent.

"Really?" Xu Jiao obviously didn't believe it.

"If I lie to you, there will be five thunderstorms in the sky!" Shen Yue swore to the sky, "If you don't believe it, when we have the opportunity, when will we catch a red-haired ghost, and you will know if you ask him in person?" ”

"How do you ask them? I don't know how to talk nonsense. Xu Jiao believed Shen Yue's words, and her heart was still hairy.

"Jiaojiao, my Shen family has reached such a situation, the thoughts of the Zhang family and other families you can understand from that ship, even if you can barely organize the supply of goods to trade, you can't get to the East Ying Kingdom or Luzon in the South Seas......" Shen Yue began to play the emotional card, and the women of this year are far easier to fool than later generations.

There's no way around it.

The land-based merchants will definitely be blocked by the family who plotted to seize the Shen family's property, and even let people kill and throw their corpses into the wilderness.

There is no score at sea.

"Don't worry, with me, they won't be able to kill you!" Xu Jiao waved her little fist and said excitedly as if I am protecting you.

Shen Yue smiled bitterly, Xu Jiao didn't know the strength of the maritime merchant at all.

You can get a profit of millions of taels of silver a year, how can you do it without a huge fleet?

The fleet of maritime merchants not only has to fight against powerful pirates, but also has to fight with other maritime merchants, and their armed strength will not be worse than that of a Ming court sailor.

In the naval battle of Liuluo Bay, the pirate Liu Xiang, who took refuge in the red-haired ghost, had more than 50 ships under his command, even if it was just a small boat, it can be seen how strong it was, not to mention the pirate forces of Zheng Zhilong, who was about to become a climate, made the imperial court dare not fight, and finally recruited An'an.

Shen Yue didn't want to compete with anyone for hegemony, he just wanted to protect himself.

"Therefore, this matter must not be leaked out before going to sea. Once it leaks out, my plan will inevitably not succeed, the Shen family has no hope of turning over, and it is also an extravagant hope to marry you...... Even the Lord of Qianhu will be punished for lack of money and food......" Shen Yue said against his will.

Hearing Shen Yue say that the scenery would marry her, Xu Jiao's face turned red, and she whispered: "I don't need you to marry me, as long as you are safe and sound." ”

"Don't worry, the red-haired ghosts have gone whaling a lot, and I haven't seen them punished in any way, from Europa to Daming, tens of thousands of miles!" Shen Yue didn't care about the Dragon Lord's anger at all.

In the future, he will be strong, with a strong fleet, he can completely protect whales, there is no whale oil in Europe, and he can import candles from Huaxia!
