Liu Yan and Ji Chonghai followed Li Tianhao to visit most of Quanzhou City, Li Tianhao is obviously very familiar with this place, the route is never repeated, and he can also take shortcuts. The things I bought were not very expensive, they were all children's favorite toys, preserves, pastries and the like. It's just that there are a lot of them, and every time they are big bags and small bags, if they can't take it, they will tell the boss to send things to the Li family's fleet at the dock. Along the way, it cost more than forty taels of silver. Liu Yan didn't care, but Ji Chonghai shook his head secretly, and said in his heart that this kid was deceived by us, is this going to open a store when he buys so many things?

At this time, Li Tianhao turned his head and smiled at Liu Yan and said: "Brother Long, everything has been bought, so let's do it, it's not too early, junior brother still has a few taels of broken silver here, why don't I be the east, how about we go to Guanhailou for a meal?" ”

Liu Yan smiled: "No matter how good it is." ”

When the three of them came to Guanhai Tower, Li Tianhao picked the elegant seat with the best view, took out the silver and ordered a table of wine and food. After a short time, Xiao Er sent the wine and food, and spread a table full of them, Li Tianhao did not drink, only drank tea instead of wine. Ji Chonghai served Liu Yan, pouring wine and cloth dishes. Liu Yan asked while eating: "Little brother, you bought so many things, but I don't know what it was for?" In my opinion, if you eat and play, I'm afraid three years will be enough. ”

Li Tianhao sighed and said, "These things are not all mine, they were brought to my friends." And I'm going to go out to sea with the ship today, and I'm afraid I won't be able to come back next year. ”

Liu Yan was taken aback and said, "At your young age, are you going to go to sea to do business?" ”

Li Tianhao was happy and said: "I have been floating on the sea since I can walk, and I have more days at sea than on land." Otherwise, where would I have so many foreign friends who asked me to bring them toys and candies from the country of silk? ”

Liu Yan was even more surprised when he heard this: "Have you been to many countries yet?" Let's hear it. ”

Li Tianhao is a child's heart after all, and when he saw Liu Yan asking, he was naturally happy in his heart. He talked to Liu Yan about his sailing experience since childhood. Although Li Tianhao is young, he has already been to the South Seas a few times. Because he has Paz blood, he has actually traveled back and forth from Paz to the Silk Country several times. During this period, he naturally experienced countless ups and downs, coupled with the customs and customs of various countries, Li Tianhao was also articulate, and Liu Yan was so drunk that he was so surprised that he almost didn't leave Ha Lazi. Speaking of later, Liu Yan let out a long sigh and said, "It's a pity that I'm not blessed, I haven't been to so many fun places." ”

Li Tianhao said excitedly, and said: "What's so difficult about this, Brother Long, let's hit it off at first sight, why don't you just get on my boat, and I'll take you across the ocean to see these novelties?" ”

Ji Chonghai was anxious when he heard this: If the prince is allowed to go to the sea and not come back for a year or two, the capital will not be in a mess? What's more, if you have two more days, you can't stand it, and if you have two more years, I'm afraid that my life will be in danger. But he couldn't object directly, so he had to change the topic and ask: "This little brother, you just said that you got on your boat?" Are you the owner of a ship? ”

Li Tianhao couldn't help blushing when he saw that he had missed his mouth, and said: "Actually, I am the young owner of the Li family's fleet, and this time I came to Quanzhou to build a batch of new ships on my father's orders. ”

Ji Chonghai actually felt that this young man was unusual for a long time. Generous, temperamental and well-informed, when buying things, he only reported to the Li family's fleet, and his surname is Li, most of them have a very high status, and now when he asks, it is true. Immediately, he said: "Build a batch of ships? It is a big deal for ordinary merchants to build a new ship, and the Li family's fleet seems to have great financial resources, so they can build a batch at a time? ”

Li Tianhao was a little embarrassed: "Actually, there are only eight ships in one batch, and no matter how much money there is, there is not so much money." ”

Liu Yan became interested when he heard this: "Then what kind of ships are these?" How many masts are there? How many sails are used? ”

Seeing this, Li Tianhao lowered his voice and said: "Don't hide it from Brother Long, what is built this time is not a sailboat, it is a new hybrid merchant ship, which has both the main sail propelled by the wind and the outer ship that can be propelled by manpower, so that you don't need to wait for the monsoon to arrive before you can go back and forth." ”

"Outer ships?" Liu Yan was taken aback: "Isn't that my country's warship?" The construction method of this ship has always been an official secret, how can the people make it? ”

Li Tianhao smiled slightly: "This big brother Long doesn't know, in Quanzhou City, if you are willing to use money, someone will be willing to do it." ”

Liu Yan was furious when he heard this, slapped the table and said, "This group of people is also bold!" This is a state secret, and it is easy to circulate! In the long run, our military superiority will be lost! ”

Li Tianhao said with a smile: "Brother Long is drunk, why bother making such a loud noise, this matter has already been done, not to mention that business travelers communicate with each other, learn from each other's strengths, and strengthen the country and enrich the people, isn't it a good thing?" ”

"Where's it!" Liu Yan was furious: "Your caravan steals national armaments, and the crime is not punishable, can you be guilty?" ”

When Li Tianhao heard this, his face changed, he put down his chopsticks and said: "Brother Long's words are not right, the caravan pays attention to fair trade, everyone is an equal relationship, and they communicate with each other, exchange the strengths of various countries, and benefit the world, how can the view of one country and one place understand?" Not to mention other families, my Li family's fleet alone is based on this criterion. One day, I will inherit my father's fleet, let this fleet travel all over the world, and let the goods of all countries pass through the world! ”

Liu Yan hated and said: "With me, don't think about it!" Today you have to go with me to the Yamen and catch that official who sells secrets!" ”

Li Tianhao sneered: "If I don't go, Brother Long will not be able to do it?" ”

"Exactly!" Before Liu Yan's words fell, he had already flipped over the table and rushed forward. The guests in the restaurant saw the chaos and dispersed in a hurry.

Ji Chonghai complained bitterly in his heart: The prince is too impulsive, and there is no need to make such a big deal about this matter. It seems that the prince is still too immature in dealing with things. But in the blink of an eye, Ji Chonghai's eyes were straight. Originally, he thought that with the divine power of the crown prince, plus a good kung fu, it would not be easy to catch a thirteen or fourteen-year-old boy, but as soon as the two sides fought, he found that this young man's martial arts were not weak, and within a few moves, Liu Yan was actually at a disadvantage! Ji Chonghai couldn't help but sigh secretly: he was called the guard of the East Palace in vain, but he didn't see that this young man was a hidden master. He was afraid that the prince would make a mistake, so he hurriedly jumped forward to help.

Liu Yan shouted: "Old Ji! I don't need your help! ”

Li Tianhao smiled and said: "People see that you are not my opponent, and you are kind to treat you as a donkey's liver and lungs." This old man is a real master, how can it be like you have learned so many tricks, but you can't use them! I advise you to retreat and let the old man fight with me, you are in the way here, he can't use all his strength! ”

Ji Chonghai handed over his hand and realized that Li Tianhao's strength was not under Liu Yan at all! And he is obviously honed by a long time of fighting, his speed skills are all mature and sophisticated, and his gestures are like a martial arts master who has been famous for many years. As he said, if he fights with him alone, he can still gain the upper hand, but if he adds Liu Yan on the side, he will inevitably be distracted to protect the prince, but he will be restrained. It's a pity that Liu Yan was so provoked by Li Tianhao, he was furious, and he refused to retreat from anything. Ji Chonghai complained in his heart: This kid must have done it on purpose, he was so careful at a young age, it seems that today's fight will be difficult to end.

Kankan fought dozens of moves, and the two sides were tied. When he was stuck, he suddenly heard a big chaos downstairs, and then dozens of catchers rushed up.

Ji Chonghai's heart tightened: Oops.
