On the side of the Southern Plains, a large number of huge sailing ships are gently rocking.

They descended from the north to the south, leaning against the port of Bishui Harbor, which covered the offshore bays.

Between these large sailing ships, countless small boats waddled through the harbor.

Luo Lan was on one of the small boats. His boat is the most luxurious in Phuket Harbor, tens of meters long and more than three meters wide, equipped with four fishermen and eight oars.

However, the most luxurious boat in Phuket Port is not worth mentioning in Bishui Port. Luo Lan hugged the two maids and watched the various big ships on the sea dizzyingly.

These large ships are powered by the wind, most of them more than ten meters high, and their holds are filled with cargo from the north. Of course, in addition to merchant ships, there were also warships.

There were pirates on the seas, and merchants from various countries were also competing against each other, and there were often conflicts, and if there were no warships to escort them, they would be sacked as soon as they went to sea.

Luo Lan deliberately stood up and looked at the warship in the distance, and found that the warship was similar in size to a merchant ship, except that the deck was wider and the mast was taller.

The sailors above were also full of soldier physique, walking around with spears or swords. Luo Lan also found that there were trebuchets on the warship, trebuchets used for siege.

In general, warships will not be equipped with trebuchets, because in sea operations, trebuchets are difficult to use, they cannot be aimed at all, and it is too difficult to throw stones at enemy ships.

"Bina, why should their ships be equipped with trebuchets?"

Luo Lan asked curiously, and Bina, who pinched her nose because she was disgusted by the smell of the port, muttered: "It is used to throw a sharp stone cone, which is round and pointed at the top, which can destroy the sails of the enemy ship, so that it is difficult for the enemy ship to travel." ”

I see.

This sounds very backward, like two tribes in the Stone Age throwing stones at each other.

Luo Lan smiled dumbly, equipping trebuchets just to destroy other people's sails is really overkill.

But it is also very reasonable, after all, the world is too heavily suppressed by alchemy, resulting in the utilization rate of gunpowder is 0%, otherwise, the trebuchet may throw gunpowder bombs.

The broken ship slowly sailed into the port, Luo Lan looked all the way, and had a general understanding of the advanced level of merchant ships and warships in this world, which were not even comparable to the ships of the Song Dynasty.

And Luo Lan also discovered a phenomenon, that is, Bishui Bay is too crowded.

Blue Water Bay is actually huge, but it's too chaotic. Fishing boats, aristocratic cruises, northern merchant ships...... All kinds of ships are crammed together, and there is no normative system at all.

It's like a large garage, if everyone follows the rules and stops, you can park a thousand cars, but because everyone parks randomly, the result is so blocked that you can't even accommodate 200 cars.

Along the way, Luo Lan heard countless quarrels, not only merchants from northern countries scolding the streets, but also local fishermen and nobles complaining.

"It's a headache to watch, and the businessman must be angry with Bishuiwan."

Luo Lan shook her head, and then ...... He was also blocked.

His boat got stuck between a group of aristocratic boats.

The big ships of these nobles were not as good as the merchant ships, but they were very luxurious, and they were to go to sea for fun.

Luo Lan's boat was caught in the middle.

The nobles on the ship looked down one after another and scolded: "Fool, get out of here!" ”

"Get out of here, this is Prince Luo Lan!"

The fishermen who rowed the boat responded loudly, they were veterans of paddling, and they usually did not dare to scold the nobles, but now in order not to let the prince be wronged, they scolded back.

The nobles on the boat couldn't help but look at the fishermen when they dared to fight back.

So Luo Lan was targeted.

"Look, it's the exiled Luo Lan!"

Someone shouted, and the sound was mixed with the smell of fish, which seemed to be full of evil.

"It's really him, I was originally a lord of Uttar Pradesh, and I was expelled by him!"

In the fishy smell, there is also a touch of hatred.

The aristocrats seemed to want to tease Luo Lan. Luo Lan was angry on the spot, pointing at the nobles and scolding: "If you don't want to die, get out, otherwise Lao Tzu will tell my father to hang you!" ”

Luo Lan's sudden frenzy caused the nobles to burst into laughter, and Bina, who had already hung up her veil, silently rolled her eyes: pretend, continue to pretend.

This is one of Luo Lan and Bina's plans, Luo Lan wants to act, play the eldest prince of the year, commonly known as pretending to be a pig and eating a tiger, of course, at present, he can't eat a tiger, he can only pretend to be a pig.

Seeing that the nobles' words were fierce, Bina finally came forward.

She untied her veil and smiled at the nobles on the ship, "Can you make a way out?"

The holy Bina is like a lotus flower in the stinking bay.

There was silence for a few seconds, and then the nobles exclaimed, it's the Great Nun!

In just ten minutes, a waterway was awayed, and under the watchful eyes of the nobles, the broken ship went straight to the port.

Luo Lan stood at the bow of the boat and laughed: "Haha, even if you are interested, I will bypass you this time!" ”

The high-flying and domineering Luo Lan is completely like a second ancestor, the nobles are all spitting, if it weren't for Bina's face, Luo Lan's ship is estimated to be sunk.

After half a ring, the boat docked.

The shore was full of fish scales and garbage, and in many places there was sailors' droppings. Luo Lan felt soft under his feet, and there were stinky fish everywhere.

Not far away stood some soldiers, they were "customs".

When they saw Luo Lan and Bina coming ashore, they immediately ran over, of course, they came to greet Bina.

Bina's fame is too great, even the second prince will be courteous to her.

"Welcome Miss Bina to visit Nan Yuanling, do you need help?"

The soldiers were extremely enthusiastic, and Bina pointed to Luo Lan, who was jumping to the side and scolding her mother, "This is the eldest prince of Hailing Kingdom, he came to celebrate the birthday of the second prince, and I will take him for a ride by the way."

The soldiers looked over and saw Luo Lan throwing his boots in disgust, pointing at his hands and feet very arrogantly, "You spread a blanket for me, I don't want to go this way, hurry up"!

The soldiers had a black line.

They hadn't met the Great Prince, but they had heard of the Great Prince. This eldest prince Luo Lan is a well-known waste material, if he hadn't been exiled by the king two years ago, he might have misled the country.

"The Great Prince...... Please come with me, my subordinates will settle you in the hotel in Bishui Harbor first, and then notify the lord, and then the lord will inform the second prince, please don't worry. ”

The soldier said with a cold face, and Luo Lan immediately scolded: "I'm going to see Barron now, let you come to see me, I'm his brother!" ”

What a retarded prince!

The soldiers were almost about to draw their swords, but Bina hurriedly scolded Luo Lan: "You are obedient, don't mess around!" ”

Luo Lan snorted dissatisfiedly and stopped making trouble.

The soldiers then took the two to an inn, a rather luxurious inn that usually housed merchants from the north.

As soon as Luo Lan entered the room, he was immediately not exaggerated or arrogant, he was very calm.

Bina, who came in with her, glanced at him, "The maid is in the next room, on call."

Bina said this in an unpleasant tone.

Luo Lan snapped her fingers, "Okay, after taking a shower, I will ask the maid to serve and sleep, and I will work again tomorrow."

The corners of Bina's mouth twitched, "Pay attention to proportion, don't tarnish the innocence of the maid."

——————

When night fell, the palace of the prince of Nanyuan was brightly lit.

Since the second prince's birthday banquet will be five days later, and the second prince is going to parade, the palace is very busy these days.

The second prince Barron is also very busy, he has been checking all kinds of matters of the military parade, his chest is full of pride, and his handsome face is full of young and promising arrogance, what a monarch.

However, tonight the cavalry came to Bishuiwan and told him something that made him a little uneasy.

"Your Royal Highness the Second Prince, the eldest prince arrived at Bishui Bay and said that it was for you to celebrate your birthday."

Barron's fingers twitched, and his face was indifferent.

"Tell me everything about the situation."

After a moment, Barron, who had listened to the knight's report, sneered.

"It's sad to take a maid, to ask for a blanket, to be arrogant and rude, and he still doesn't understand why his father exiled him."

Barron took a comfortable sip of warm water and waved at the knight: "Whatever he wants, he can give whatever he wants, especially women, give him everything." ”

"Yes!"

The knight quickly left, and the curtain behind Barron lifted, revealing a middle-aged man with a small eye.

This middle-aged man's eyes were shining, and his ordinary appearance could not hide his wisdom at all.

"Your Highness Barron, Luo Lan never came to land in the first two years, and only cared about enjoying himself on Phuket Island. Now that he has expelled the lords, given tax exemptions to the peasants, and now he has come to Nanyuan to take the lead, which is really unusual. You must not take it lightly, the old king has always been thinking about Luo Lan in his heart, as long as he changes for the better, it will pose a threat to your position. Please send someone to monitor Luo Lan immediately. ”

"Max, you're too worried, Luo Lan's change is related to the nuns of the church, I guess he was fascinated by that nun. Isn't the hypocritical nun trying to save the peasants, my eldest brother is on the way, and it won't be long before his fiefdom will collapse. ”

Barron said casually, but seeing Max's serious face, he nodded and agreed, and sent someone to spy on Luo Lan.
