Although there were few Japanese people who also came to Ezo Island, the senior management of the Taisong offshore fishing team still expressed some concern.

Between Japan and Ezo Island, that is, across the strait, the narrowest part of the strait, less than forty miles, what if I flock to the island!

Faced with this concern, Jin Ding looked at the snowflakes that were falling outside the window and said with a smile:

"You don't have to worry about the Japanese, Ezo Island is so cold, do the Japanese have warm clothes! Eiderdown, they don't have it! Cotton clothes made of cotton, they don't have it! Besides, it's cold and unsuitable for farming, so you can't grow rice, so would the Japanese still be interested in coming here to get cold? As for those Japanese, eighty percent of them committed crimes in Japan, so they came to this bitter cold place. ”

This time, Jin Ding led 600 people to come to Ezo Island, first in the cold did enough work, in addition to each person prepared a duck down robe, each person was also equipped with a set of cotton clothes, and the duck down jacket is stuffed with duck down, the cotton clothes are stuffed with Jibei - Mao Geng called cotton, okay! Although this cotton coat is not as good as a duck down jacket, the effect of keeping warm is also good.

Tao Wenfu also came up with facts to support Jinding's point of view:

"Not bad! The Japanese don't say that they don't have eiderdown jackets, they haven't even seen cotton, and they haven't seen it before, and over the years, they have been in constant civil wars, and finally Minamoto Yoritomo defeated the Taira clan, and now the political situation is not stable, and it is said that the Genji has autocratic power, and even their emperor does not pay attention to it. In my opinion, it will be at least a few years before this mess ends, so there is no need to worry about the Japanese. ”

In fact, Tao Wenfu's estimate is still too conservative, and it was not until the end of the 16th century that the Japanese Matsumae clan crossed north to Hokkaido and built the first Fukuyama Castle, which can be regarded as the beginning of the Japanese dove occupying the magpie's nest. Do the math, this is already the late Ming Dynasty. The Ming Empire greatly promoted cotton cultivation to benefit Japan, and it was around this time that the Japanese began to wear cotton clothes, so they had the material conditions to migrate to Hokkaido. Of course, there is another point, which is due to the influence of Toyotomi Hideyoshi, a fanatical expansionist.

It wasn't until the 19th century that Hokkaido was officially included in Japan.

At this time, there is no doubt that there is no need to worry about the Japanese.

Jin Ding and Tao Wenfu's words made everyone feel relaxed, and Lei Yuntong, who called himself Lei Gong, shouted:

"Since those Japanese birdmen came here because they made a mistake, they must not be good birds, so it is better to catch them all and cut them all down with a knife."

Tao Wenfu smiled:

"It's not necessary to cut it, it's good to catch it and do coolies."

Tao Wenfu's idea was supported by Jin Ding, so those Japanese were all regarded as stowaways without exception, and after being captured, they were grouped together with the captured Japanese pirates.

Dude is the captain of the No. 1 whaling ship, and what makes Dude depressed is that a few days ago, the blind cat of the No. 2 boat collided with a dead mouse and actually caught a whale weighing 8,000 catties, which makes people envious and jealous! Why don't you have such good luck!

Today the snow stopped, just out of the port for whaling, Dude's whaling ship is now driving on the sea, although the sun is shining, but the cold swishing sea breeze blows, I only feel that my face is cold and cold, if it is not for the eiderdown jacket on my body, no one dares to stay in the bow of the ship at this moment.

Jiang Yi at the bow of the boat was holding a telescope to observe the sea in front of him, expecting a big whale to suddenly emerge.

Dude was very satisfied with Jiang Yi's appearance, patted him on the shoulder, and then walked to the side of the boat.

Two guys on the side of the boat are talking:

"Why do you say it's called North Sea Island? I've heard that this place was originally called Ezo Island, and some people say it's called Xia Yi Island, and I've heard that many people advocate changing the name to 'Chivalry Island', but I think the name 'Chivalry Island' is very good, and it's much stronger than any 'North Sea Island'. ”

"You know the! My Great Song Dynasty has the East China Sea and the South China Sea, so naturally there must be a North Sea. That's why this island is called 'North Sea Island', you know! ”

Du De heard that Yu Jinchang and Liu Sancai didn't know how to pretend to understand, and they were talking nonsense, and immediately shouted:

"You two kill talents, sue you, it's 'Hokkaido', not 'Hokkaido'. You two don't chew your tongue here, keep an eye on me, and report to me immediately if there is any movement on the sea. ”

The two of them were immediately silent, although they still didn't understand what the name of "Hokkaido" Dude was talking about, and what was wrong with calling it "Hokkaido"!

The whaling ship continues on its way in the blue sea. Now it is only with the help of sails in the boat, and the steam turbine has already heated the boiler, but at this time the stoker just adds some coal from time to time to maintain the fire in the furnace, and when there is no need for a high-speed boat, it has always maintained such a look, but once necessary, only continuous coal is added, so that the steam turbine can immediately output power, so that the whaling ship can immediately lift and move forward.

I only heard Yu Jinchang scream:

"Look! Look, there's squirting, squirting! ”

I saw a column of water spraying up in the distance, and I didn't need a telescope to see it.

"Quick, turn the rudder, add coal, lift, catch up, that's a whale." Dude couldn't wait to roar

When the stoker heard Dude's roar, he immediately added several large shovels of coal to the furnace, and at the same time, the pilot opened the steam valve, and the steam turbine began to start slowly, and after a while, the steam turbine began to rotate high. At this time, someone on the deck had already lowered the sails, and with the operation of the steam turbine, the propeller was rotated, and the whaling ship began to add and reload, rushing straight towards the whales in the distance.

The faster the degree, the more biting the cold wind became, and the biting cold wind hit his face, but Dude didn't care at all, holding a telescope, trying to find the whale's trace in the first place.

"Look, it's in the back."

Yu Jinchang was still sharp-eyed, and at a glance he saw the whale's huge back sweeping past the back of the boat, and Liu Sancai on the side opened his mouth wide, and he was stunned for a while, Mom! What a big fish it must be!

"Turn the rudder! Quick, turn the rudder! ”

Fortunately, the whaling ship quickly turned half a circle, and the bow of the ship was aimed at the whale that was cruising not far away.

The whale was apparently unaware of the great danger that was coming, and was still swimming leisurely, not paying attention to the ship of its size.

The whaling cannon in the bow of the ship had already been loaded with medicine packs and arrows, and as soon as Dude pushed away the gunner, he directly took over the whaling cannon, and after a little aiming, he couldn't wait to pull the whaling cannon.

With a bang, the cannon arrows shot out, and the ropes tied to the tail of the cannon arrows also flew forward.

Jiang Yi stared at the whale for a moment, and when the cannon arrow was about to hit the whale's back, suddenly the whale made a difficult move in the water, and actually avoided the cannon arrow, and only a huge whirlpool remained on the sea.

"Bastard, fuck it, ran away?"

"Hmm. It's a little bit faster. Jiang Yi said regretfully.

Dude felt that his luck was really bad, why was this damn whale so cunning!

When he had recovered the arrows, which had not hit, he was very frustrated, and stared into the distance, thinking to himself what an exciting thing it would be to be able to catch such a large whale!

Time passed by by by by a second, and Dude had not yet recovered from his frustration. Suddenly, Jiang Yi and Yu Jinchang shouted at the same time:

"Look, whale!"

"Whales! Look, wow! It's huge! A big --- big whale. ”

Dude hurriedly looked at the sea, only to see a huge whale skimming over the sea, heading straight ahead.

"Fire, quick, fire!"

This time, Dude only had time to shout, and the gunner was between the lightning and flint, and the whaling cannon was sounded, and with a bang, the cannon arrows flew out again, and Dude felt that this time it should be there.

Sure enough, there were red blood stains on the sea ahead—hit!

Soon, the whale pulled the rope straight. It is conceivable that the cannon arrow should have penetrated deeply into the whale's body, and due to the action of the four large barbs, even the force could not pull out the cannon arrow, but the whale's strength was so fierce that it actually pulled the whaling ship and shook it.

"Quick, reload, one more shot!"

Dude was extremely nervous at this time, so he simply took off the eiderdown jacket on his body, and like the gunner, he only wore a short cotton coat, with the strength to go into battle shirtless.

As the second cannon arrow hit the whale, the boat erupted in cheers, and Dude finally caught his breath, and this time the whale had no escape.

But the wounded whale tried his best to make a desperate fight, and suddenly rushed forward, suddenly dived, and suddenly rolled, so that the whole ship seemed to be in the middle of a stormy sea.

"Mom! It's going to capsize. ”

"Oops! It's going to sink. ”

－－－－－－

"Quick, turn off the power."

"Quick, the rope will be longer, longer, a few more turns."

As the power was turned off, the rope became longer and longer, and the huge crisis caused by the whale churning to the whaling ship began to ease, and Dude stared at the whale struggling from afar, blood constantly coming out of the sea, tossing for a while, about the strength was exhausted, and then it gradually subsided.

After about an hour, the huge whale finally remained motionless, presumably dead.

Du De took a long breath and laughed, this whale, to say the least, has 10,000 catties, compared to the whale caught today, the whale caught by the No. 1 whaling ship is less than 10,000 catties, it is not worth boasting about. This time, Dude was satisfied, drove the whaling ship and dragged the whale back to the port in good spirits.

However, the whale was so huge that hundreds of people almost poured out of the nest, and it took a lot of effort to drag the whale ashore with the port's pulley and human tow.

Today, it's not just Dude that they've caught whales. Not far away, on the beach, there was a whale lying there, but it didn't look even half the size of this whale. Damn! The No. 1 whaling ship hit the big luck again today. Hehe, it's a pity that the whales they caught are a bit pitiful compared to the whales here.

The slaughter of the whales was the responsibility of another person, and the pirates and Japanese stowaways caught were part of the slaughter team. Slaughtering is not an easy job, and according to Maote's requirements, almost all parts of the whale can come in handy, so even the bones must be cleaned, and all the bones from the meat will be used to refine bone glue.

Dude was very proud, the final weight of this whale was 34,000 catties, not including the whale blood shed. And the prey of the No. 1 whaling ship is less than 20,000 catties. The two whales they caught together were not as much as one of their own!

However, on the fourth day, after the sky cleared again, Dude was about to stop, and when he was about to go to sea to go whaling again, he was told that the No. 1 whaling ship had won again this time! Because in the body of the slightly smaller whale, ambergris appeared, given that when the ambergris was first taken out of the body, the smell was not only fragrant but also very smelly, and it took two days to slowly have some fragrance, and now, it can be confirmed that the ambergris whale caught by the family is a sperm whale that produces ambergris.

Depend on! What a fortune! Dude said that feng shui takes turns, and when he comes to my house tomorrow, he will definitely win it back.
