Chapter Seventy-Two: A Trip Home
It's getting bright, it's not far from Butterfly Island, and the ghost boat is two hours away.
If you haven't returned to the base camp for a month or two, what will happen to the women on Butterfly Island? What will happen to the children? Shen Lang is full of expectations.
After cultivating the True Yuan Decision on the ghost ship, when it was restored to two drops of true yuan, the ghost ship had already arrived at Butterfly Island.
It was time for lunch, and Shen Lang took Luo Lina and a wandering spirit back to the Haijing Marquis Mansion.
"Master, this is your mansion, it's so big, three times bigger than Palembang's. Lorina was surprised.
"It hasn't been built yet, you see that it's still under construction on the top of the mountain, and our Haijinghou Mansion is only a renovation of the former Island Lord's Mansion. Shen Lang briefly introduced.
"Master, I admire you a little bit now, there is a home outside the home. A little ancestor in a small black cloak said sourly.
"Hehe, this is just the place you see, the nearby waters are basically under my control, there are countless islands in the Pacific Ocean, I have sent garrisons to guard them, in the future, my islands will be all over the ocean. Shen Lang said very easily, the more this is the case, the more sad the little ancestor is, this person is more popular than others.
When they arrived at the gate of Haijinghou's mansion, more than a dozen guards stood very straight when they saw that it was Marquis Shen, and they paused for a while, raised their guns, and brushed their chests and abdomen in unison, in unison.
"Hou Ye is mighty, Hou Ye is victorious!"
Shen Lang nodded, walked into the Hou Ye's Mansion, a clean walkway, there were sculptures on both sides, and then there was a wide green lawn, where a few children were playing, three or four years old, and a few more than a year old, following behind their butts.
"Daddy is back!" Dabao and Erbao shouted wildly, running all the way over, since they were familiar with Shen Lang, as long as Shen Lang came back, they would chase after him.
Shen Lang hugged one with one hand and pricked them with a shallow scum, causing them to laugh wildly.
Shen Lang put down the two of them and looked at the three treasures and four treasures who were running slowly, this was born to Gu Qingqing and Liu Feifei, they were only more than a year old, they were relatively unfamiliar with Shen Lang, standing aside and looking timidly, who is this?
Shen Lang beckoned and asked them to come over, the two little guys looked very cute and very cute, and some characteristics of Gu Qingqing and Liu Feifei could be seen from their faces.
Sanbao and Sibao finally recognized that it was their father, and pounced, Shen Lang grabbed one in one hand, and kept spinning, causing the two children to laugh wildly.
"Master Hou, Master Hou is back?" Several women's heads emerged from the window, all of them were Shen Lang's wife.
A few of them had already run down, it was Mrs. Huahua, Ye Zi, Gu Qingqing and Liu Feifei, hugging Hou Ye, as for Miss Windsor, Princess, Jiu'er, Tie Rulan held her belly of different sizes, leaned against the gate, and smiled.
"It's time for breakfast!" Shen Lang got out of the pile of women, approached the pregnant women, touched their bellies, and pinched their chins.
The big round table in the hall is full of all kinds of food, all of which are made by the imperial kitchen brought by Princess Zhu Can.
Since Shen Lang announced a dining etiquette, the family should eat quietly and not make a fuss, so everyone concentrated on eating their own food, except for those few little guys, who reached out and grabbed everywhere, making their faces all over the place.
After Shen Lang finished eating, he sat on a big chair in the middle of the hall, surrounded by two rows of exotic women of various colors, watching them dance.
When it is half past nine, someone will come to report the work, this is always the usual practice, Hou Ye is here, report to Hou Ye, Hou Ye is not there, report to the second lady.
Soon, Li Fugui and He Meng walked in after the guard's briefing, their faces happy.
"Hello Hou Ye!" they bowed and greeted.
"Well, how are you doing?" asked Shen Lang.
"Master Hou, let me say it first. "He Meng, as the vice president, is bold, and said first.
Shen Lang nodded and motioned for him to speak first.
"Master Hou, according to your arrangement, our various sea areas are now being laid out, with Butterfly Island as the leader, and now we have purchased four lucky ships, five three-masted warships, trained more than 1,000 sailors, and prepared 2,000, which is enough to deal with a naval battle of no small scale. He Meng said proudly.
"I will remember your merits, and I will conduct a martial arts exercise in a month to test your results. Shen Lang smiled.
"Also, this month, the Customs Taxation Bureau collected 30,000 taels of silver. He Meng's face was full of joy.
"Okay, Manager Li, what do you have to report?" Shen Lang looked at Li Fugui.
"Master Hou, now the production of each island is carried out in an orderly manner, we have specially arranged to plant suitable crops on each farm, and in another month, it will be harvested, in addition, all the facilities of my Butterfly Island have been completed, only the project of Hou Yefu is still in progress. Li Fugui replied.
"You have all worked hard, I am not on Butterfly Island during this time, mainly relying on you, hehe, it is here, I have to rely on you, you two are my right-hand men. Shen Lang smiled.
"It's an honor for us to be able to serve Master Hou. He Meng and Li Fugui are very respectful, not arrogant or impatient.
"Very good, I see the results of the two of you in my heart, there will be a banquet tonight, you bring the officials of all the departments over, let's be lively first." Shen Lang gave instructions.
"Thank you Lord Hou for your kindness, let's go and convey it immediately, those brothers below don't know how happy they are. "Both of them were happy.
Shen Lang watched the two of them leave, and ordered the head of the Hou Ye's Mansion to prepare for tonight's banquet, make it a little grander, boost morale, and unite his subordinates, after all, they still have to do some real things.
After finishing his business, Shen Lang found that those women were talking about it, mainly against Rolena.
Although Lorina was tightly wrapped, her clear eyes and slender figure made those ladies not calm enough, and they didn't pay attention at first, and when they did, it was too late.
The eight ladies cast their eyes for consultation, especially Gu Qingqing and Liu Feifei, who looked like they were going to eat Shen Lang.
"Husband, who is she?" asked Lady Flowey, pointing at Lorina.
Shen Lang knew that what should come would always come.
"Oh, she's a girl I received, why don't you want to?" Shen Lang asked rhetorically.
"Husband, didn't you tell us that you forgot your vow when you didn't bring women back again?" Mrs. Huahua was very upset, which meant that there were women to share with them.
"You have to make it clear, I'm a girl, not a woman, do you understand?" Shen Lang glared at them and glanced around, the ladies were all stared at by his stern eyes, only Mrs. Huahua still had a stalk around her neck, but she didn't say anything, even Windsor and the princess didn't say much, what else could she say.
