In the small courtyard in front of the owner's houses, there is a small wooden table, boxy, with quaint wine utensils on the table, which are all the owner's favorite collections.

In addition to the bright moonlight, there are two lanterns hanging from the branches of the trees in the courtyard, which illuminate the small courtyard very brightly.

As soon as Dabao led Han Mo into the courtyard, the island owner immediately got up and stepped forward, with a grateful face, and hugged his fists and said: "Fifth son, prepare a little thin wine, don't blame it, come on, please take a seat." "Extremely enthusiastic.

With a look at him, Dabao immediately hugged his fists and retreated.

Han Mo was not polite, sat down at the table, and said with a smile: "The island owner is really quick to deal with things, I only slept for a while, I'm afraid that now the hearts of the people on the island have been recovered, right?" ”

The island owner sighed, shook his head and said, "If it weren't for the Fifth Prince's action this time, I'm afraid that Immortal Island would suffer a catastrophe." The inhabitants of this island are actually good people, and they are all people who live their lives, but they are just blinded by cold photos. It's just to stabilize people's hearts, I'm afraid it will take a while. ”

"With the island owner here, he is not afraid of anything." Han Mo said with a smile.

The owner of the island smiled and said to the house: "Yue'er, is the fish steamed?" ”

"It's coming!" Du Bingyue's crisp voice came from inside the house.

The owner of the island smiled and said: "Fifth son, there is nothing to eat, but the steamed sea fish in Yue'er has a bit of taste, and I will taste it later." ”

"Then there will be a blessing." Han Mo said with a smile.

He looked inside the house, and vaguely saw Du Bingyue's figure being busy, he didn't expect that this girl had a strong temperament, but she could also go down to the kitchen, and he really didn't expect it before.

A gust of wind blew, Han Mo smelled a fragrance, listened to his nose and sniffed it, and couldn't help but say, "It's so fragrant!" ”

The owner of the island stroked his beard and said: "The fragrance that the fifth prince smelled came out of the lantern, and it was made of fish oil, and after the lamp was lit, it was fragrant, and it was a treasure on the sea." ”

Han Mo looked at the two lanterns, very interested, walked over and smelled them, sure enough, they came out of the lanterns, and couldn't help but admire: "Sure enough, it is a treasure, it can not only light the lamp, but also incense." ”

"There are many treasures on the sea." The island owner said slowly: "One part of the sea, one point of treasure, this sentence is not false. ”

Han Mo sat down, as if he was thinking about something, and pondered for a moment before he smiled: "It's really true." He looked at the island owner and asked, "Island owner, what are you going to do with those people?" ”

The "few people" he said were naturally Leng Zhao's sworn friends, and they wanted to hold Xiao Tongguang hostage at the last moment.

"I'm about to ask the fifth prince to adjudicate." The island lord said with a solemn expression.

Han Mo raised his right hand, looked at his three golden fingers, and said lightly: "They are the island owner's people, how to deal with them, it is still the island owner's final say." After a pause, he glanced at the island owner, and said slowly: "But it won't be a good thing to have a few wolves by your side, island owner, what do you say?" ”

……

The island owner saw the murderous intent flashing in Han Mo's eyes, and his heart sank slightly.

Although he had already seen the ruthlessness and wit of this young man through the matter of Leng Zhao, it was only at this time that he really felt the coldness in Han Mo's bones.

Han Mo's smile makes people feel sunny, and even makes people feel close, but when he cools down, the whole person is like a cold knife, sharp and murderous.

"I understand what the fifth prince means." The island owner sighed, shook his head, and said softly, "It's only to blame them for doing something wrong." ”

"I know the owner will handle this well." Han Mo smiled and nodded: "After all, the Han family needs an explanation, and if I want to go back to intercede, I also need a reason." ”

The island owner stood up and said respectfully: "Everything has the fifth son of Lao!" Up and down the fairy island, grateful. ”

At this time, Du Bingyue had already brought the steamed fish to it, and sure enough, the fish was fragrant, as soon as it was placed on the table, Han Mo picked up a piece of fish meat with chopsticks without hesitation and ate it, it was tender and smooth, and the fragrance was permeated in his mouth.

"It's delicious, it's delicious." Han Mo praised repeatedly.

Du Bingyue's face was happy, after all, no one hates compliments, but she pouted on her face and said: "Fifth prince, you are a nobleman, you have eaten a lot of delicacies from the mountains and seas, what is there to eat about such a fish." ”

Han Mo smiled and said, "Maybe I haven't eaten anything good for many days." Well, I've heard that some people who are accustomed to eating delicacies from the mountains and seas have not eaten for a few days, and occasionally eat a flatbread, and they will find it extremely delicious. ”

Du Bingyue was stunned, but immediately understood what he meant, stomped her foot, glared at him fiercely, and turned in.

The island owner squinted, looked at this scene, a smile crossed his eyes, personally poured wine for Han Mo, and said softly: "Fifth son, what the old man told you a few days ago, I don't know if the fifth prince can still remember." ”

Han Mo took a sip of wine before he said slowly: "The island owner is talking about moving?" ”

The island owner looked happy and nodded again and again: "Exactly." Fifth son, I hope you will fulfill this matter. He stood up again and bowed deeply.

Han Mo got up and helped him sit down, and said warmly: "Island Master, Leng Zhao has been punished, Immortal Island should be peaceful, why do you want to move?" ”

The owner of the island took a big sip of the wine cup, and then coughed, and Du Bingyue heard the cough, and immediately ran out, patted the owner lightly on the back, and said in a reproachful tone: "Dad, you are not in good health, so don't drink." ”

"It's okay, it's okay, I'm happy to talk to the fifth prince today, and it's okay to drink two glasses." The owner of the island waved his hand, and then sighed: "Fifth son, you have also seen the old man's body, maybe you will sleep tonight, and you won't be able to get up tomorrow." In the past, I saw that Leng Zhao had some ability, and he might be able to take on the responsibility of the owner of the island, but ...... Hey, his ambition is too great, if he is not punished, the entire Immortal Island will be brought by him into a land of no return. But except for Leng Zhao, although there are many people on this island, but in my eyes, there is no one who has the talent to rule everyone, but it is a pity, I think I had a lot of talents on Immortal Island more than ten years ago, but now, there is no one later. ”

Han Mo listened carefully, he naturally understood that the bandits were all strong men, and if there was no person whose martial arts wisdom and prestige had reached a certain level, and he could choose one person to succeed him, not only would he not be able to lead everyone, but maybe there would be greater infighting in the future.

"So if you don't move, after the old man dies, the old man is afraid that other people at sea will peep at my immortal island and come to seize it." The owner of the island finally voiced his concerns.

Du Bingyue gently slapped the back of the island owner, and her beautiful face also showed a gloomy color.

……

Moving to the sea people, Han Mo is also a little sure, when the time comes, it will not be too much trouble to divide a piece of land for them outside Donghai City, establish a village, and then record their household registration.

However, Han Mo looked at the lantern and suddenly had an extremely bold idea.

"Island owner, I heard that there are many small countries on the sea, but I don't know if you have seen them?" Han Mo held his chin, pondered for a long time, and finally asked.

The island owner was stunned for a moment, although he didn't understand why Han Mo asked this, but he still nodded and said, "Fifth Prince is talking about those countries in the southeast, right?" I have been to seven or eight countries, compared to the four countries of the Central Plains, those countries are just a small place, not to mention. ”

Du Bingyue also said: "Yes, those countries are very small, I have heard before that there are two countries that are too weak in national strength, and they were actually destroyed by several groups of pirates." ”

"Oh!" Han Mo's face suddenly showed excitement, like a child: "Miss Du, do you also know those countries?" ”

Du Bingyue pursed her lips and said, "That's nature, everyone at sea knows it." ”

Han Mo nodded and said, "That's good, great." ”

The island owner and Du Bingyue were a little strange, they didn't know that Han Moweihe was suddenly so excited, the father and daughter glanced at each other, and the island owner asked softly: "Fifth son, what do you mean?" ”

"Island owner, I have read a book called "Chronicles of the East China Sea", which says that there are many countries in the southeast of this sea, although their national strength is weak, but they are rich in products and have many good things." Han Mo looked at the island owner with an expectant look and asked, "But I don't know if this is true or not?" ”

The island owner was well-informed and seemed to understand something, so he nodded and said, "What the fifth prince said is not bad, but those small countries have a lot of rare things. He turned to Du Bingyue and said, "Yue'er, take out my boxes." ”

Du Bingyue agreed and immediately returned to the house.

"Fifth Prince, do you want the warships of the Donghai Zhenfu Army to attack those countries and seize property?" The island owner, who was born as a bandit, immediately thought of the word "robbery".

Han Mo hurriedly waved his hand and said, "The island owner has misunderstood. After thinking about it, he asked, "Island owner, are there no merchant ships coming and going between the four countries of the Central Plains and those countries on this sea?" I mean, there hasn't been a deal between the two sides? ”

In fact, the people of this era are not very broad-minded, the trade of the four countries of the Central Plains is in the Central Plains, even between the four countries, the trade may not be smooth, just like Wei and Yan, the trade route between the two sides is very difficult.

As for trading with maritime countries, it is still very rare.

First, the manpower and material resources to go to sea are extraordinary, and the most important thing is that there are bandits cruising all over the sea, and without a strong sea escort, it is almost impossible to move an inch.

The Han family, who controlled the East China Sea, had never thought about maritime trade, and others naturally would not have this condition.

"Fifth Prince, I won't tell you, I've been at sea for so many years, and I really haven't seen any merchant ships coming and going. A few years ago, merchant ships mainly came to Yan by sea from the coast of Qingguo, and at that time, everyone had to take risks to do business. The owner of the island recalled: "More than ten years ago, there were several Qingguo merchant ships who wanted to cross the East China Sea to do business with those small countries, but they didn't go halfway, and they were robbed by several people at sea. ”

"I see." Han Mo sighed: "No wonder I haven't seen anything overseas in Donghai County, it turns out that the two sides have no contact." ”

Du Bingyue came over with a box in one hand, put it on the ground, and said, "Dad, this is it." ”

The owner nodded, reached out and opened one of the boxes, and took out a clear glass bottle from it, which contained a red liquid, which was an absolute rarity in this era.

As soon as Han Mo saw the glass bottle, he almost jumped up in shock.

He knew that in this era, the Central Plains had not yet produced such a thing as glass.

"It's called wine." The owner of the island was quite proud: "It was obtained many years ago, from a country called Stockholm, the wine taste is very special, and the bottle of wine is also a rarity, I heard them say, it is called 'Boli'!" ”

In Han Mo's shocked eyes, he took out another finger-sized glass bottle, which contained a yellow liquid, the island owner opened it carefully, and a rich but refreshing fragrance emanated: "This is called Pulan Perfume, produced in a country called Pulan, if you put a drop on your body, the fragrance will not disperse for a long time." ”

He opened another box and took out a hide: "This is called a leather painting, and the fifth prince will look at it." He pointed to the portrait on the skin and said, "This is a leather painting of Alitu, and this painting above is also very special." ”

Han Mo looked closely, and saw a painting painted on the animal skin, it was an extremely strange monster, and the painting was definitely not made with a brush, but carefully carved with a knife, and there was really a kind of ingenious craftsmanship.

"These are the dowries I used to prepare for Yue'er, but I have never taken them out to see them." The island owner looked at Han Mo and stroked his beard and smiled.

When Du Bingyue heard this, her face turned red and she glared at her father with disgust.

"Yes, that's good." Han Mohuo stood up and said, "Island Master, I'll show you a way, can you go?" ”
