Chapter 17 - The task of purchasing a transport ship has been completed

Lin Jue muttered: "I don't know how the shipbuilding industry is developing in the Yan Empire of this world, but it is estimated that it will not be disappointing, right?"

Lin Jue, who has just come to this world, has learned the basic situation of this world from the book. Among them, Lin Jue is very curious, that is, the historical records of all countries in this world start from 600 years ago, which is too coincidental, no book has recorded any news about this world 600 years ago, how can there be such a large-scale coincidence in the world? Lin Jue thought that this might really be because of a coincidence, maybe the human beings in this world only knew about recording history six hundred years ago.

But there were two things that made Lin Jue deny this idea. First, the current world-accepted year record is 1327, which means that at least 1,000 years have elapsed since human civilization was recorded. The next year, Fenix once said that eight hundred years ago, humans who could do magic would be burned at the stake, in the absence of written records, how did she know about this tradition eight hundred years ago? Could it be that she is an old woman who has lived for at least eight hundred years? However, when Lin Jue learned about the history of the Yan Empire, this idea became vague again, maybe the strange question of historical records is really just a coincidence.

The Yan Empire, the first power in the Central Continent. Whether it is military, or economic, production, and trade, it is undisputed that it is the first.

What interested and surprised Lin Jue was that the person in charge of the Yan Empire was surnamed Zhu, and the first emperor of the Yan Empire recorded in historical documents, known as Emperor Jianwen in history, Zhu Yunwen, had the same name and surname as the second emperor of the Ming Dynasty in the world in which he was located, and Emperor Jianwen of his own world happened to disappear more than 600 years ago.

Lin Jue once thought, could it be that this emperor is also a traverser? It is precisely because of his arrival that the human beings of this world have learned to record history?

The Yan Empire, with a large number of silk textile workshops, produces a huge amount of silk every year, and these silks are transported to various countries on the mainland through a huge trading fleet, bringing huge trade profits to the Yan Empire every year. All of these textile workshops were located around Kyoto, which earned Kyoto the name Splendid City. In addition to the Splendid City, the Yan Empire also owned Mingxiang City and Ying Porcelain City, two important towns for the tea and fine porcelain industries, plus silk, which constituted the main trade products of the Yan Empire.

The business team of eight carriages and more than 30 people brought by Lin Jue has arrived outside the splendid city.

It seems that he knew the arrival of Lin Jue and his entourage, and there were scouts who came to report early, outside the north gate of Splendid City, two teams of soldiers wearing flying fish suits, and a red-robed official were already waiting here. Looking at the red official robe and the flying fish suits on the soldiers behind him, Lin Jue was even more convinced that this Yan Empire was inseparable from the Ming Dynasty in his own world.

Because although Lin Jue came to the Yan Empire in the name of the Orlante Kingdom, he mainly came to discuss business, and after telling everything to be simple, the Yan Empire no longer paid attention to it, and only sent the right attendant of the Ministry of Industry to greet him, and a pacification envoy of the Jinyi Guard came to escort him with two teams of Jinyi Guards. Lin Jue proposed straightforwardly and went directly to the shipyard to see the ship.

To Lin Jue's gratification, the shipbuilding technology of the Yan Empire is really good, maybe the shipbuilding technology of the transport ship is lower than that of the warship, the standard transport ship, named the Dafu ship, is seventy meters long and fifteen meters wide, and it looks a little bloated, according to Jiang Quan's statement before coming, the full load displacement of this kind of ship is 1500 tons, and under the condition of ensuring sufficient materials, a ship can stuff at least 400 people.

"Does such a ship cost 2,000 gold coins? But it's worth it!"

Since there are currently twenty transport ships that the entire Yan Empire can take out for sale, Lin Jue directly buys them all, and the next step is to recruit sailors. This work, naturally, has Lin Jue's business team and the cooperation of the imperial officials, and it is easy to complete it at a high enough price.

In Splendid City, more than ten days passed in a flash, rubbing his sore shoulders, Lin Jue proposed to take Lin Yue to visit this bustling city. Because I just came to Splendid City, I came directly to the dock, and I have been living here, and I have not been idle until today, Nuoda's city, I didn't have the opportunity to go in and have a good experience, so Lin Jue sighed for a long time I don't know how many times.

Although she just took Lin Yue out, recently, the little phoenix Phoenixes no longer stuck to Lin Jue, but became Lin Yue's little follower, and this time she went out, Phoenixes naturally followed.

Phoenixes asked, "Hey, Lin Jue, Xiao Yue'er's eyes, do you really have a way to solve it?"

Lin Jue waved his hand and said, "Don't worry, if your description doesn't have a problem, then it's really no problem." ”

That's the case, Lin Yue, the child, seems to have some defects in his body, he faints easily, and every time he faints, he has to sleep for a long time before he can wake up. Lin Jue has always been helpless, and she has found many doctors in the past few days, and they all said that her condition is very good, not like she is sick. After a while, it was Fenix who discovered the cause of the problem. Lin Yue seems to be particularly sensitive to the sun, to be precise, her eyes are particularly sensitive to the sun, as long as she comes to the range of sunlight, once the sunlight hits her eyes, it seems that her spirit will be consumed very quickly. Just like a normal person, from morning to night, he has been working, studying and entertaining, which will consume his spirit, and he will be drowsy at night, while Lin Yue will fall asleep immediately when his eyes come into contact with the sun. Even if the refraction of the sunlight shines into the eyes, although it will not faint immediately, but after a long time, the spirit will be consumed quickly. But nothing seems to happen at night, as long as it doesn't happen when the moon is full.

"Oh my God, a natural light magician physique!" this is what Fenex said to Lin Yue.

"Why don't you train her to be a light magician?" this was Lin Jue's proposal.

"You are stupid, where are we now? The Yan Empire, the most powerful and ancient eastern power in the world, all you can contact at present are spellmasters, including educational resources, you might as well train her into a powerful light magician. ”

Lin Jue said indifferently: "Oh. ”

Lin Jue didn't know how prosperous his own world was, how prosperous Nanjing City in the Ming Dynasty was, but he had seen the splendid city here. For example, the most prosperous main street here, the flow of people is comparable to that of Wangfujing Street, shoulder to shoulder, sweating into rain, waving sleeves into clouds. On the streets, all kinds of rare treasures are full of dazzling, not only luxurious silk, exquisite porcelain, fragrant tea, and even the special products of Oasis City, there are also a lot of black pearls, and there are many things that have never been seen, maybe they are the specialties of other countries? After all, Splendid City is the first trading port in the whole continent, and it is not uncommon for so many things that have never been seen to appear.

"Alright, here we go. Lin Jue stopped, pointed to the brick shop in front of him, and said.

"Ocean Supplies Workshop?" Phoenixis was stunned, and Lin Yue stared at Lin Jue with curious eyes.

Lin Jue pulled the two of them in, and the interior decoration of the entire store was all fragrant osmanthus wood, with rough masonry walls, which was incompatible with the blue bricks and white tiles of the entire Splendid City, but it had a unique flavor. The store is very quiet, as if it is an empty store, surrounded by neat cabinets, shelves, all kinds of beautifully made telescopes, compasses, and some charts that Lin Jue can't understand at all.

Lin Jue shouted loudly: "Hey, boss, are you here?"

A moment later, in the corner, a middle-aged white-skinned man with glasses and stubble on his face came out, holding a telescope barrel in his hand and a carving knife in the other.

Seeing Lin Jue, he smiled and said: "The big boss of the East, Mr. Lin Jue, I remember you, you came to me a few days ago to buy a lot of nautical supplies, which is enough to equip a fleet." ”

Lin Jue smiled and introduced the two: "He is a navigator in the Carolingian Kingdom, John, and this shop specializes in selling Western navigation equipment. I have to say that in this regard, the telescope is indeed better than that of the Yan Empire in Western countries. ”

John greeted the two with a smile, and Lin Jue asked, "John, did you do what I commissioned you to do last time?"

After being reminded like this, John seemed to have just remembered this matter, said goodbye, turned around, took out a small wooden box from the corner, handed it to Lin Jue, and said, "Here, you can open it and take a look." ”
