Chapter 916: Balloon Fall

When he saw Zhang Xiaobao helping his younger brothers and sisters finish cutting the meat and the little ones were looking for a place to eat, he approached Zhang Xiaobao.

"Xiaobao, how many more do you have to stay in the local area?"

"About five days, waiting for the reaction of Zhenla's side, five days is enough, just use this rìzi to check the place of the dam and the artificial river. When we leave, we will leave 200 men behind to help you manage the place, as well as the corresponding weapons and ammunition.

Don't take the initiative to provoke the tribes surnamed Meng, and lure them to take the initiative to attack, so that you can use our hands to kill people. The people we stay behind will take the initiative to contact them, and you send someone to help translate their words, trying to provoke them, and you know the consequences. ”

Zhang Xiaobao said an approximate time, and then told the king to return to him.

King Guigui agreed again and again, he was in a good mood, he knew that even if he came into contact, the tribe surnamed Meng would not be able to cooperate as much as his own side, and it would take time.

Taking advantage of this time, he was able to speed up the development of the Fu clan, and when the people surnamed Meng really cooperated, his side had already developed, I don't need to attack you, I just watched you live as well as me.

King Guigui even came up with a plan, the people surnamed Meng had more cattle, sheep and horses, and he first sold the grain grown at a low price to the other party in exchange for their livestock, and then bred hard, and after a few years, the surname Meng no longer had any advantage.

Learn from Xiaobao and attack with economic means, just as relieving.

Thinking about it, King Guigui couldn't help but laugh.

Zhang Xiaobao glanced at him. I didn't ask him what he was thinking, just don't mess with me anyway.

The bonfire ends when the sun sets. It's a late party.

Zhang Xiaobao and others left, bringing a lot of smoked meat, many of the locals were drunk, the wine was too strong, and too relaxed, and many women were helped back to the village.

The bonfire was extinguished, but the people of the tribe rose a flame of hope in their hearts, singing and dancing. Reluctant to stop.

******

Five days passed quickly.

There is news from the junction of Zhenla, the people have arrived, and they haven't followed too many escorts.

Zhang Xiaobao and Wang Juan left 200 people, told them the general idea of what to do in the future, and pointed out the location of the salt mine, and then packed up and set off west.

The locals sent it out for more than 20 miles. I reluctantly watched the team disappear and turned back to the village.

In the past few days, they have learned a lot of practical knowledge from the team of Zhang and Wang, and they have watched the people of Zhang and Wang's families use local bamboo, wood, grass and leather to make various tools that are more convenient to use.

Therefore, they have a lot of trust in the people of the Zhang and Wang families. Absolutely the other side is a good person.

However, he complained to Fan Fan, saying that when their caravan came, they should have had a lot of tools, but they didn't teach them.

Fan Fan admitted that they had an agreement with the other caravans that had come, and that they couldn't help the tribesmen too much. So as not to be learned, you have less means to make money.

While apologizing to Moa. On the one hand, the root cause is that the Zhang and Wang families are atmospheric enough, and the technology they master is far more than this, the more they will know, the more they know how difficult the road of technology is, and the more generous they are to people who don't understand technology.

Fan Fan apologized, but he didn't regret it, he said to Moa, we came here at that time, you didn't return to Datang, why did you teach you skills? Xiaobao and Juan Juan teach you techniques, but they will not teach India and more food, Datang's blockade of technology is very strict, if one day Xiaobao and Juan Juan teach the enemy techniques when the enemy is not obedient, it is definitely a trap.

"So, you don't think they're kind and amiable, score against anyone. When Xiaobao left, he promised me to develop here, and gave me a loan, so we need to be more close. ”

Fan Fan talked about cooperation again, he plans to raise fish, raise ornamental fish, and want to buy fish fry at a high price and transport them to Dianchi Lake to see if the fry will produce new mutations in a special environment to get more beautiful fish.

But he can't keep an eye on it all the time, and needs the help of reassuring locals.

"How do you divide the money?" Xiao Bao told himself before he left that human resources are precious, that is, even if the people who work can't exchange things, as long as they do things, they have to get a lot of money.

"People, it's terrible to change your mind, if you open nineteen, I will get nine shares of the money sold in the future, and you will get one point. I have to transport the ornamental fish first, the fish is very expensive, I guarantee that I will die part, although the interest on the loan is not good, but I still have to press the funds, and my savings bank itself will also generate profits.

Then I have to bear the loss of the fish that died due to the accident when I was raising it here, and I will continue to lose if the mutated fish are even more ugly. Even if it succeeds, I will have to ship it back, and then die a part of it, open up sales, and there will be advertising costs.

Anyway, I spend a lot of money, you just help take care of it, the proportion of 19 is not low, and I also get nine times the profit when I do business with you normally. ”

Fan Fanbi drew a 'one' and a 'nine', and said to Moa.

When he first heard about 19 points, he wanted to raise the price, but after listening to Fan Fan's analysis, what the other party said was absolutely reasonable, so he had to agree: "Okay, 19 points." ”

"There is also a plan, put the sea fish into fresh water to raise, the Yangtze River knows, many fish in the sea will swim over, and there are also fish from the Yangtze River swimming in the sea, I will transport a boat from there, and those who survive, circle a place in the pond to see if they can be fed, or one nine."

Fan Fan came up with another idea.

Still, he agreed, but he couldn't think of a better way. Suddenly, a question came to him and asked, "How much do you sell, and how do I know?" And how much money you spend, I don't know either, you say nineteen points, when the time comes, just say the number, what should I do? ”

"Brother Moa, you still can't trust me?" Fan Fan looked at Moa with a sad look.

He smiled embarrassedly, "Believe, believe you." You can say as much as you want, and when the time comes, I will send someone to find Xiaobao. Doesn't it mean that any of them can be used as a point of contact? I'll ask Xiaobao to give you another guarantee. ”

Fan Fan was stunned, blinked his eyes, and nodded: "Okay, look for it, wait for other businessmen to come over, when you talk to them about various cooperation, remember to tell you about finding Xiaobao at the last time, I can't be the only one who suffers." ”

Moa smiled slyly. Sure enough, it is very useful to mention finding Xiaobao.

******

was mentioned by Moa and Fan Fan as a place where there were sea fish, and many fishermen were wondering at this time.

They came out of Fuzhou and then fished around several small nearby islands and reefs, which had lighthouses and their boats were not big, so they didn't dare to go too far. If there is a big ship. You can go to the open sea to catch rare fish in the offshore sea and sell them for more money.

You can even go to the island of Liuqiu, bring your goods, and exchange them with the locals, who also go fishing and go empty. Bring some cargo that is not available on the island, and when you come back, you will be able to fill a boatload of fish.

If you're lucky, you might even get leather from other islands.

And there is no need to worry about the people on the island to rob, there have been a large number of merchants who have negotiated with the tribes on the island before, and let the Datang gunboats show their strength first. Then the benefits are given, and the two sides make a normal exchange.

There are even merchants from the Tang Dynasty who arrange for people to be stationed on the island in rotation. Serve as a bridge of communication. There are also rich people who choose a good place to build a house on it, and go to live for ten days and a half when they are idle and bored.

The people on the island like silk, like vegetarian oil, and like to eat canned food, smoked chicken, roast duck, etc., if you cook a pot of wontons for people in the past, you may also get fish and iron ore as gifts.

What's even more interesting is that a merchant brought the seeds over and asked the people on the island to help plant them, and after the harvest, the people on the island could choose to plant some of the things as a reward, or they could exchange them for other things.

There is nothing the small fishing boat can do about it, and if they take the risk, they can actually get there, but it's not worth it.

In recent days, what made them wonder was that the number of Datang escort boats around them had increased significantly, and there was usually an armed boat three times larger than their fishing boat in a fishing area, and there were generally more than a dozen people on board, with long guns.

Since the previous two days, there have been two escort boats in each area, and it can be clearly seen that there are machine guns on board, and at the same time, a patrol boat can be seen cruising by.

The most puzzling thing is that there is a hot air balloon flying in the sky, and someone on it scans the sea surface with a telescope, and occasionally finds that the water surface in one place is different from other places due to the altitude, and throws down some oiled paper with pencil words written on it.

There are fishing boats that are fished up from the sea, and it is written which direction a large school of fish appears, and the fishermen can follow the instructions to go over and fish, which is very convenient.

But the fishermen definitely don't think that the hot air balloons in the sky are specially here to help them find fish, that is too much luxury, and they can always see the people in the hot air balloons throw a float into the water first, and then shoot on it, obviously training.

The fishermen were a little nervous, but they were not afraid, as long as the imperial court did not prevent them from coming out to fish, it means that the imperial court has a way to protect themselves, if something really happens, it is estimated that they will not be allowed to go to sea, and they will hide first.

Today, a group of fishing boats from Fuzhou once again got the guidance of the people on the hot air balloon, to the southeast, about ten miles, the sea water is not normal, you can try to check it.

The fishermen immediately became excited, and every time they said this, there were schools of fish in the past, so the fleet changed direction and headed that way, and the hot air balloons followed suit.

Sure enough, when they arrived at the place, the fishermen found that there were really a lot of fish, so they cast their nets casually.

When he was happy to catch it, a fisherman looked up to look at the hot air balloon, and suddenly found that the balloon was getting smaller and the height was decreasing, and hurriedly shouted: "Leave the fish alone, it's down, it's leaking, right?" Save. ”

A group of fishing boats adjusted their direction, estimated the landing point of the hot air balloon, and rowed it with all their might.

When it was still more than 100 meters away, the hot air balloon finally entered the sea, and after a while, the heads of four people were exposed, swimming towards the fishing boat, and the two patrol boats also approached.

"Brother, what's wrong?" Pulling the four people up, the man on the boat asked with concern.

"I don't know where it leaked, it fell off, unlucky! Everything turned over the sea, and when I went back, I told them to design the hanging blue, and fortunately the people were fine. ”

One person explained helplessly.

"Brother, you're here to find fish for us?" Another person asked.

"What kind of fish are you looking for, that's by the way, we are looking for a cannibal boat, and we don't find it elsewhere, and we suspect that it is in the Liuqiu area, so we have to strengthen patrols in Quanzhou and here." Don't mention it, transfer us to the escort boat, and you continue to fish. ”

The man in the hot air balloon wiped the seawater from his face and said depressedly.
