Chapter 64: Treasure Island
When they once again set foot on a solid land, it was the fourth day they had left Dahuangdao, and on the way, they encountered another storm at sea, which did not endanger their safety, but caused great suffering to the women on board.
At this time, running a boat on the sea is a man's business, and women will not often follow the boat to the sea, so after going to sea and encountering wind and waves, the women on the boat are seasick and dizzy, and they vomit a mess one by one, and even some women want to jump into the sea and die.
Fortunately, the wind and waves they encountered this time were not too big, and both of their boats had undergone some maintenance, and the condition of the ships was not bad, so there was no danger.
Under the guidance of Liu Laoliu, after they left Dahuangdao, they began to sail all the way south, gradually leaving the sea off the coast of Funing Prefecture and entering the open sea around Fuzhou.
As we all know, there are many islands along the coast of Fujian, and even if they are old and run to the sea, it may be difficult to tell how many islands there are along the coast, so this also creates good conditions for them to find a foothold again.
Liu Laoliu has been at sea for more than 20 years since he was young, and has almost traveled all over the sea in Fujian and Guangdong, so he is quite familiar with the coastal situation in Fujian and Guangdong, so he will confidently take everyone to the outside of Fuzhou.
Along the way, they carefully avoided some large islands and the waterways where official ships often cruised, and came to such a small island.
"This is it! No one knows what it's called on this island, but three years ago, when I went to sea, I followed the owner's boat to the Fuqing area, and encountered a strong wind, and the boat was blown here! I realized that there is an island here!
I took advantage of the boat here to shelter from the wind, went to the island to take a look, and found that this is a desert island, and it is a good place, although the island is small, it is not better than the small yellow island, but there is a spring on the island, at least there will be no shortage of water to drink! So it's just right for us to settle here first!
To the north of this island is the sea altar, and the boats on both the north and south sides have always taken the west side of the island, so if we can stand here, it will be a good place! After Liu Lao Liu went down to the beach, he began to introduce the situation of the island to Yu Xiaotian and them.
Yu Xiaotian heard him say that Haitan Island is in the north, so he roughly determined the location of this island, which should be under the jurisdiction of Pingtan County in the future, what is the specific name, Yu Xiaotian is not very clear, but for this island, he is still relatively satisfied.
At this time, the people on the boat also began to get off the boat one after another, Lan'er's body was already relatively weak, and after being dizzy for two or three days, she couldn't even walk at this time, so she was carried by two women before she got off the boat, sat on a reef, and only after a while did she recover her strength, and her face became slightly better.
Yu Xiaotian asked Liu Wang to bring her some water, and beckoned a few women to get off the boat to prepare for cooking, so that the people on the boat could eat first, while he took Ma Mian and others to the high place and carefully looked at the island.
After ascending to the high place, looking down, the shape of the whole island comes into view, this island is a horseshoe-shaped irregular circle, facing the northeast position, there is a depression, forming a natural bay, and the east and southwest corners of the island, within the eye of the eye, there are three smaller islands, the terrain of the whole island is relatively gentle, there are some black pines growing on the island, the shore is a delicate golden sand, in the clear water against the background, the scenery is very beautiful.
If it was in the old time and space, Yu Xiaotian believed that such a place would definitely be developed into a tourist attraction and would definitely be a good place for tourism and vacation, but the current situation is that they will temporarily use this beautiful place as their nest.
Thinking about his coming to this world, more than two months have passed in the blink of an eye, and in the past two months, he feels a bit like he is in a dream, and has experienced so many things, first as a supernumerary boatman, then encountered pirates and robbers, and then finally found a place to stay, and almost lost his life in the sea, followed by the murder of officials and rebellion,......
Now he has appeared here as the helmsman of a group of rookie pirates, Yu Xiaotian thought of this, and a wry smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, this is probably to make people! But anyway, he's still alive, which is good!
"Brother Yu, look, there are a few stone houses over there!" At this time, Liu Wang suddenly pointed to the place covered by a few black pines below and shouted to Xiaotian.
Everyone walked to the side of these stone houses, took a look and found that the houses here, I don't know what age the road was built, it was made of stones on the island, but it has long been abandoned, even the doors and windows have long been corrupted and disappeared, it can be seen that there were people living here, but it was later abandoned.
Then they found a trickle of fresh water in the rock crevices on the island, and after tasting it, they found that the fresh water here tasted good, at least much sweeter than the water in the well they used to have in Xiaohuangdao.
"That's it! The sixth uncle has made another contribution this time! With us, we found such a treasure land! Let's start today, let's settle here first! Yu Xiaotian greedily picked up the water with his hands, took a few sips, washed his face with water, stood up and wiped the hair that had begun to grow a little long towards the back of his head, and said to everyone.
"Then our island should always have a name! The big guy said yes? A descendant spoke at this time.
Everyone raised Yu Xiaotian and asked Yu Xiaotian to name the island, Yu Xiaotian looked at the golden sand beach by the sea, and the waves glowing with silver light, and suddenly had an idea and said: "Okay!" Since the big guy asked me to give me a name, then you're welcome! This will be the starting point for us to make a living at sea in the future, so that the big guys can make a fortune in the future, so you might as well ask for an auspicious one and call it Treasure Island! ”
After everyone heard this, they chattered for a while, and felt that the name Yu Xiaotian gave to this island was really good, so this island was called Treasure Island by them from then on.
The people who had just arrived here unloaded all the supplies on the ship to the island again, and walked around the island again, and finally chose their residence at the abandoned stone houses on the island, and began to build a large hut on the same day, using the things that could be used at hand, to build a hut, and to clean up a relatively large abandoned stone house, as a place for their deliberations, and made a frame to take root here.
Although the scenery of Treasure Island is beautiful, but the resources are very scarce, the most on the island is stones, and the trees are only a few black pines, and the rest are some shrubs and wild grasses, but this is already accustomed to the newly established sea wolf gang, they make full use of everything they can use, and in just a few days, a small village of the first scale appeared on this deserted Treasure Island.
Looking at the thatched huts built one after another, Yu Xiaotian sighed lightly, no matter what, they finally found a place for them to temporarily stand on this time, so what about the future?
Thinking of this, he brought Liu Laoliu, Ma Mian and others over, and began to discuss the next action, as soon as Meng Madman heard Yu Xiaotian ask what to do next, he immediately jumped up and shouted: "Do you need to talk about this?" Of course it's out of the water to rob the fuck! Isn't that what we're doing? What can you do if you don't rob it? ”
Yu Xiaotian looked at the babbling Meng Maniac, a little angry and funny, since he chose this path, it is natural for him to go out and rob, he has no psychological obstacles to this, and now what he wants to discuss with everyone is not how to get out of the way to rob, but more related to their future survival and development.
"Uncle Meng, don't be in a hurry to go out to fish, it's natural to go out and rob the ship! But right now, I'd like to discuss with you how to ship!
You are all from the past, of course, you all know very well that we have robbed money, and we always have to find a place to make a move! In our business, there must be a nest owner on land, otherwise we can't pull the goods to the land and shout and buy it!
That's why I'm coming to you today to discuss this matter! After all, we still have a batch of Liu family's goods in our hands, we can't keep them in our hands like this, we still have to sell these things as soon as possible! Yu Xiaotian beckoned Meng Maniac to sit down and said to everyone.
Since Liu Laoliu took Yu Xiaotian and others back to Xiaohuang Island, they originally planned to find a family in the Funing area to give away the goods on the Liu family's ship, but later because of sudden changes, this matter dragged on, and now some of the worthless goods have been thrown away by them on Xiaohuangdao and Dahuangdao, and the rest are mostly some slightly valuable things, which are still in their hands.
In addition, what Yu Xiaotian said is not bad at all, they are doing this business now, the important thing is not how to go out to rob, but must first find a family or several families on the land, and be responsible for selling the stolen goods for them, so that they can turn the goods they robbed into money, and they can also use the next family to purchase some necessary things for them on land in the future, otherwise, they will not be able to survive for a long time at sea.
Ma Yan and Liu Laoliu and Zhao Mazi exchanged glances with each other, and they all nodded yes, judging from the matter raised by Yu Xiaotian, they could see that this young descendant was much more thoughtful than they originally imagined.
(Was Zongheng hacked by whom?) I can't log in in the morning, and I can just open it now! It's late for the update, so bear with me!
