Chapter 384: Kyushu Island
I don't know if the scene just now is already quite popular for the time and space of Datang, or if it is about to enter winter now, and no one has taken this route, and after the fleet sets off again, the journey is quite smooth.
Li Anran's first destination on this trip was Kyushu Island, but the Tachibana family was not on this island, but on Shikoku Island, which was a little further back. The reason why I went to Kyushu first was really to open up a trade route first.
When the fleet, which had increased from fifteen to nineteen ships, approached the port of Kyushu Island, he first encountered some fishing boats fishing in the offshore waters, and then saw a very backward port in Li Anran's eyes.
Considering that he had a lot to do when he came out this time, Li Anran, who changed into Hanfu halfway, was not in a hurry to send Tachibana Michiyo back. Instead, after the fleet entered the port and docked at the dock, they went down with the people.
Although Li Anran, Su Xiaomei and Zheng Chenggong are the first to return to Kyushu, the Zheng family's fleet is full of veterans who often run this line. There is no need for Zheng Chenggong's orders, so naturally someone rushed to become a "tour guide".
In fact, to open the trade route of Kyushu Island, there is no need for the big boss Li Anran to come forward. It's just that Li Anran wants to see what the customs and customs were like at this time during the Tang Dynasty and Japan with China as the Celestial Empire.
It's a pity that after Li Anran came down from the port wharf under the leadership of the steward of the Zheng family's caravan, he couldn't describe the scene with the word disappointed.
Japan during the Tang Dynasty. That is, the Wa Kingdom, and the first impression of Li Anran was that it was broken.
It is said that the popularity of the port, even if it is about to enter winter, few people are begging for a living at sea, but it should be relatively prosperous. But in fact, the number of people in the entire port cannot be compared with the flow of people in the commercial street outside Chang'an City on weekdays.
If it's just that, forget it, after all, the Wa Kingdom in the Tang Dynasty did not have as many people as in later generations. But the problem is that in terms of construction and supporting facilities, the port here in Kyushu is much worse than that in Quanzhou.
The only thing that is commendable is the natural environment. But the earth in the Tang Dynasty has not been destroyed too much by humans. Such an environment is not to mention in Quanzhou. Even in Chang'an City, it is easy to see, it is nothing at all.
Considering that the fleet still needs to stay in Kyushu for a day, it will take care of some business matters. Li Anran simply asked Kunlun Nu Obama to drive the carriage he specially got from Liuqiu Island and led the group towards the nearest county seat.
Even in Datang, it is enough to be a luxurious carriage. When driving on the road, it naturally attracted the attention of many Japanese people. A little more informed. Naturally, most of the people on the road car are people from Shangguo who have just entered Hong Kong.
The steward of the Zheng family is very self-aware. I didn't dare to sit in the carriage, but I would be outside with Kunlun Nu Obama, doing the work of guiding and explaining.
And Obama. is driving a car in one hand, holding a horsewhip in the other, and his love knife is still on his body.
Don't look at Japan during this period, the Tang Dynasty is still in a state of worship of the strong, but it does not mean that all the Japanese people will not use any bad brains against the Datang people. Under the lure of interests, there is no shortage of people in any country who do not work hard.
Fortunately, Obama, who is a Kunlun slave, has enough to deter the short widows before he has been "cultivated" by the spaceship. Not to mention that after being "cultivated", it is not just to become more robust in the body.
While receiving body modification in the spaceship training mess and brainwashing at the same time, he also used the virtual reality system to conduct systematic and in-depth training on fighting, fighting, and the skills that a conscientious bodyguard should know.
To be honest, Li Anran was amazed by the many black technologies on the multi-functional exploration ship sent by his cheap brother-in-law, but he always had a familiar feeling. For example, this virtual reality system is very similar to the technique in the movie "The Matrix".
There is also the stereoscopic holographic projection technique, which is like the high-tech mastered by humans in "Star Trek". The previous set of combat armor, although Li Anran was quite unfamiliar, but some of the local functions can still be found in the movies he has watched.
After all, the local transformation ability of his armor reminded Li Anran of the metal tentacles used by the Kryptonian villain in "Superman: Man of Steel" that can transform the planet, which can change many ways and almost knock Superman out of the sky.
And the miniature reactor on the armor, although it is not brainless enough to be placed outside as a target, but in terms of shape, Li Anran thought of the arc reactor that appeared in "Iron Man" when he saw it at first sight.
Of course, in comparison, the miniature reactor in Li Anran's armor is obviously much more advanced. At least it won't be like Stark in the movie, where there is often an embarrassing situation of running out of energy.
Fortunately, for Li Anran, these black technologies are familiar or familiar, as long as they can be used for themselves and are easy to use. As for the exact source, it doesn't matter at all.
Under the leadership of the steward of the Zheng family's caravan, it didn't take much time for the carriage to arrive in the so-called county seat.
The reason why it is described as so-called is mainly because this place does not seem to have the meaning of a county seat at all. As far as the eye can see, it is at most similar to the towns and villages of the Tang Dynasty, and most of the people walking on the streets are dressed "plainly".
Occasionally, I met a few so-called swordsmen with no patches on their bodies, and almost all of them were so-called swordsmen with knives on their bodies. In other words, it should belong to the category of rangers, and to put it bluntly, they are just gangsters with swords.
"Real person, this is it." After the carriage stopped, the steward of the Zheng family, who was the first to jump out of the car, waited respectfully and said.
Regarding the behavior of his housekeeper not greeting himself but greeting outsiders, Zheng Chenggong, who was lucky enough to sit in the carriage, was not at all dissatisfied. Just kidding, people are all true immortals in the upper realm, what qualifications do they have to compare with them. Being able to sit in the carriage and talk happily along the way is already a blessing that has been cultivated for eight lifetimes.
It's just that after Zheng Chenggong took the lead in getting out of the carriage, he couldn't help frowning when he looked at the humble wine shop that seemed to be built of bamboo.
"Young master, this place is not as simple as the Tang Dynasty, and it is also a helpless move." Being able to be the steward of the maritime trade route, this eyesight is naturally not to say, after seeing the dissatisfaction of his young master, the middle-aged steward hurriedly explained.
"Okay, Enqing, how can you pay attention to everywhere when you go out, as the saying goes, it is also a beautiful thing to follow the customs of the countryside and experience the atmosphere of a foreign country." Then Li Anran, who got out of the car, said with a smile.
With Li Anran's words, Zheng Chenggong naturally would not be stupid enough to say anything more. Seeing that the problem had been solved, among the few people who knew that Dao was the steward of the Zheng family, who had the lowest status, he hurriedly took on the usual work, and he was open inside and out.
A luxurious carriage, a tall and sturdy Kunlun slave, two personable scholars, and a scholar with a long sword. As soon as this combination appeared, it attracted a lot of attention from inside and outside the restaurant.
Seeing that the steward of the Zheng family was busy inside and out, and did not forget to take the initiative to undertake the work of translation, Li Anran did not say that he had already learned ancient Japanese through the teaching system on the multi-functional exploration spacecraft, and he cooperated as a visitor.
It's no wonder that Zheng Chenggong frowned just now, and after the group entered this restaurant, which was already the best liquor store in the neighborhood according to the Zheng family steward, they found that this place was indeed shabby, and they were completely blind to the so-called title of good luck.
Considering that the current place is Kyushu in the Wa Kingdom rather than the county seat or capital city of the Tang Dynasty, and this place is a little simpler, but the environment is quite clean, and it is also full of foreign atmosphere, which is barely good.
Under Zhang Luo, the steward of the Zheng family, the group was soon invited into the so-called private room by a widow wearing an ancient version of a kimono.
Considering that since he came, Li Anran, who naturally had to have a good experience of what kind of food there was in ancient Japan, did not let Kunlun Obama take out the ingredients in the refrigerator on the carriage.
It's just that such an act quickly made Li Ang regret it...... (To be continued......)
