Jiaozhou Port.

Huge sailing ships more than ten meters high are parked at the pier, colorful flags are hung everywhere, and stacks of linen bags are carried onto the deck by porters, and the crowd is bustling. The rest of the merchant ships at anchor were like tigers, leopards and jackals, and they were born a head shorter than this big ship.

Since July, there has been a stir in the southbound Kaido, and it is difficult to see such a fanfare.

The sealed boat that Chen Yuewu lent to Li Yan was more than 30 zhang long and more than 10 zhang wide, and it required more than 50 oars, and the weight of the sails, anchors, and rudders on the ship together could not be moved without more than 100 people.

With such a ship alone, Chen Yuewu can command four! The entire Shandong relies on the Chen family to open a group of sailors and seafarers to eat, and there are no less than 1,000 people in various places!

Li Yan stood on the boat, and Chen Yuewu on the side pointed to the huge sail dyed with black dragon patterns and explained to him: "The last time I went out on the ship, it was at the behest of the government to go south to Hangzhou to bring 200,000 pieces of pine cotton cloth into Beijing. Such a ship does not move on weekdays. ”

As early as the year of Chengzu, the government had strict regulations on the scale of private ships, even if it was only one more sail and one inch higher, it would be punished, serious, and even punished with rebellion.

Therefore, these ships, Chen Yuewu are all under the name of the Shandong Maritime Safety Bureau, so that they can be built and go to sea. In normal times, unless there is a warrant from the government, even the Chen family itself cannot call it privately.

Li Yan looked at the big ship, and suddenly asked, "Old Man Chen, this ship was built by your family?" ”

Chen Yuewu shook his head: "It was supervised by Lord Xu Baoguang of the Tianjin Maritime Safety Bureau, but it was not a waste of official money, but a villain's family wealth." ”

Li Yan couldn't help but sigh: "I underestimated Old Man Chen a few days ago, with such a family business, Old Man, you don't need me as a small military attache to guide you on how to deal with the government." ”

Chen Yuewu waved his hand when he heard this: "The people are afraid, in the final analysis, all the family business is saved for the government, if the national weapon is moved in the future, I can save the lives of my family, I will be satisfied." ”

If Chen Yuewu was born in the free, bloody and erosive land of Nanyang, his creation is still unknown. But in the Ming Dynasty, which can be called Zhongxing, Chen Yuewu, the sea overlord, can be regarded as the end, and he will never dare to take a step forward.

Li Yan didn't answer Chen Yuewu's words.

"Don't mention that. Having said that, this ship is not too big, and I am accompanied by no more than three people, so I really don't need to be so extravagant. ”

Chen Yuewu shook his head: "My lord doesn't know, the pig dragon of the Jiangsu and Zhejiang pirates has the ability to call for wind and rain." Ordinary ships call their storms and waves, and they will surely be destroyed. It is necessary to have a big ship, and then hang the official flag, and use the cannon to scare them off, so that they can survive safely. ”

Li Yan was noncommittal, just nodded: "Old man, you are an expert, I won't get an axe." ”

The two were talking, when a crisp voice interjected.

She spoke as a small girl of fifteen or sixteen, wearing a green sharkskin felt hat and cowhide pointed boots.

With wheat-colored features and bright eyes, she carried a blue cloth wrap in her hand, revealing a piece of wood inside.

"Daddy, it's all ready."

This is Chen Yuewu's youngest daughter, named Chen Jiao, Chen Yuewu has four sons and three daughters, and two sons died young. The people who accompanied Li Yan and others to the sea this time, in addition to Chen Yuewu himself, also included his youngest son Chen Le and youngest daughter Chen Jiao.

"Put your things down and salute Lord Zhenfu first."

Chen Yuewu had a calm face.

Chen Jiao sighed, hurriedly put down the package, and clasped her fists with both hands: "Chen Jiao, a folk girl, has seen Lord Zhenfu." ”

Li Yan answered, stretched out his finger and pointed to the package on the ground: "What is this?" ”

Chen Jiao replied disappreciatively: "This is the star-pulling board that A-Niang gave me, and I need to use it on the road." ”

"Star-pulling?"

Li Yan asked curiously.

Chen Yuewu hurriedly replied on the side: "It is a technique called the Beidou Star Pulling Technique, which can identify the direction on the sea, and it is just a small skill of carving insects that is not worth mentioning." ”

Li Yan only remembered after hearing this, although he listened to the advice of the yamen and requisitioned the Chen family's people to take him to sea, he really didn't know Chen Yuewu's ability.

He is known as the three strange people, and he can't just rely on a picture of Guanyin looking at the sea to encounter so many bizarre sea adventures, and he can retreat with his whole body.

"I've heard people say that when the Three Treasures eunuchs went to the West, they relied on a strange magic to split the waves and open the sea, and I didn't expect to meet a real person today, it's really an honor."

Li Yan stared at the blue cloth package for a while, thinking about how to open Chen Yuewu's words.

Unexpectedly, Chen Yuewu was the first to speak: "I once compiled the essence of the astrological technique into a book, if Lord Zhenfu is interested, I will copy it down before and send a copy to Lord Zhenfu?" ”

Chen Yuewu was so generous, Li Yan was a little embarrassed: "This won't break the old man's rules, after all, it's your housekeeping ability." ”

Chen Yuewu laughed: "Could it be that Lord Zhenfu can still compete with me for a job?" As long as it doesn't spread out, it's okay to spread it, I'm younger, and I also exchange experience with some navigators in the West, at this age, I have long lost the idea of cherishing the broom, but after all, this thing is just my whim, enough, but not necessarily fine. ”

Saying that, he actually really ordered Chen Jiao to take his share of the essence of the star pulling technique that he had compiled and give it to Li Zhenfu.

Although the "Beidou Star Pulling Technique" may not bring any substantial benefits to Li Yan, it may not even be suitable for him. But Li Yan thought that he didn't force Chen Yuewu to go to sea at the beginning, nor did he accept the gems he gave him, so he had today's gift, and he also felt that this karma was worth playing.

Not long after, Chen Jiao took a bound blue thread book, about a finger thick

Li Yan's heart moved, and his eyes suddenly became eager when he looked at Chen Yuewu.

"I'll introduce someone to the old man."
