For example, in later generations, many foreign surnames that sounded very foreign in China were actually very earthy, and the source of many surnames was the occupation of these ancestors. For example, Baker is a baker, for example, Hunter, is a hunter, for example, Smith, is a blacksmith, for example, Carter is a coachman, Cook, a cook.

Their ancestors turned their profession into a family name, which was gradually passed down from generation to generation.

Unlike Chinese surnames, which originated in the primitive social period of ancient times, from the Yan and Huang Emperors, and even many from the matrilineal social period, there have been more or less prototypes, such as some surnames at the beginning of the origin of Chinese surnames, all of which originated next to female characters. For example, the famous surname Ji, it can be said that at least dozens of surnames in the hundred family surnames originated from the surname Ji.

With the village chief's information, Zhao Qi and they immediately launched an action, first of all, two merchant ships quickly approached that place, of course, there will be several small boats in front of them to explore the way, the way of these small boats to explore the way is very simple, between the two small boats with a rope with a lead sink in the middle, this rope at least some old sailors who are familiar with water jump into the sea, confirm that they go deep into the deep sea about 10 meters deep.

Then the two boats go side by side, so that if there is a reef on the bottom of the sea, the rope will be hung up.

This method is very stupid, but for the sake of safety, it is still necessary to detect a suitable channel, besides, in fact, the distance they detect is not too far, so a total of twenty or thirty small boats go side by side, and they can be checked at one time.

When the sun was about to set, Zhao Qi and the others finally got the good news, the waters here are relatively clean, especially the bottom of the sea in this area where they are located is very clean, there are no big reefs, and the closest reef to the water surface is also about 8 meters after measurement, which is naturally good news for their ships, because the maximum draft of their ships is less than 7 meters.

The other is the cliff coastline they deliberately found, the height of the cliff from the water is about 12 meters, which is about the same height as the height above the waterline of their ship, that is, when their ship comes close, the highest deck of the ship is almost level with the top of the cliff.

However, it is more difficult to stop the boat, because the cliff is not completely straight, and there is a part of it that protrudes underneath, which means that if the shore of the cliff above is close to the boat, the cliff below will go straight through the middle of the ship.

Of course, in fact, it is a bit more troublesome, and it is enough to let the ships approach slowly, but this cliff still gives them a lot of convenience, at least so that their two ships can land directly without any problems.

It doesn't matter if it's slower, just place more ladders after docking, and they have prepared all of them, ranging from wooden to steel, the longest of which is about eight or nine meters long.

By the time it was completely dark, they had lit several huge fires on the shore to light them, and the two ships were finally docked, and the anchors released held the ships firmly to the shore, and not only that, but also the huge and specially sewn cowhide airbags were stuffed into the rocks on the shore. There are a lot of these airbags, and at least if the ship is pushed against the rocks, it can act as a barrier.

Of course, no one knows how much of a role it can play, in fact, if this force is not large, if there is windy weather and large waves, it is estimated that the role of these airbags is limited.

However, in that case, the ship would have left the shore long ago, and even if it did, it would not have been possible to dock here, and this place would have been pushed by the waves and hit the cliff, and the hull would have been seriously damaged.

Fortunately, for now, although the waves have a certain impact, but the impact is not great.

After all, when the ship docks, there is still a certain distance from the cliff. The two are often linked together by ladders, and the supplies on the ship begin to unload rapidly under the ship.

In addition to the necessary supplies and military supplies, Zhao Qi has issued a new order, and all important materials such as food, salt, and some cloth on the two ships are unloaded from the ships.

Zhao Qi had already asked those people to inquire, the residents on this island were actually not living very well, although they did not lack fish, but there was too much fish to eat, and other food was a luxury for them, and the little food they grew was not enough for them to eat themselves.

If you eat too much of anything, you will get tired of it, and the same is true of these marine fish.

So these grains, salt, spices, etc., must be very important to them.

Zhao Qi actually didn't care what these six or seven hundred people thought, to put it bluntly, it was just six or seven hundred people, and it was nothing to kill them all, but this was in conflict with the reputation of the Han Dynasty, and the reputation of the country was equally important.

And for these ordinary people, in fact, it is very simple to win them over, and Zhao Qi believes that they are also easy to be wooed.

Zhao Qi's arrival, the whole village was indeed filled with a panic, although Zhao Qi and they did not show too much aggression, but those heavily armed soldiers still brought great panic to the village.

But even so, Zhao Qi will not let these soldiers take off their armor and weapons, anything is the most important thing in the lives of these soldiers, this Zhao Qi knows very well, these people have not been recognized by the Han yet, they are not the people of the Han yet, so if they are any aggressive, Zhao Qi does not mind killing them all.

Fortunately, at least for now, although the people in the village are terrified, this is a good start, the soldiers on the ship have quickly set up a large camp not far from the village, and set up tents, these things do not need Zhao Qi to worry about.

Compared with life at sea, this kind of thing is what these soldiers are really good at, whether it is the choice of camp location or the construction of the camp, they are very good at it, and Zhao Qi doesn't have to worry about this.

However, to Zhao Qi's surprise, although it was already night, today's weather was not completely invisible at night because there was a bright moon and starry sky in the sky. When they were quiet here, a group of people came out of the village, and they came to them with torches and two wagons.

Just as Zhao Qi was guessing what they were thinking, it wasn't until Zhao Qi saw what was pulled on the carriage they came over, which was fresh sea fish in the basket, and the few grains that their village had taken out.

Looking at these things, Zhao Qi probably guessed their thoughts, obviously these people are here to "buy peace", they still don't believe what they Zhao Qi said during the day.

"Sir Zhao Qi, this is some of the thoughts of our village, and it is also to see that the soldiers are tired all afternoon, let them all eat a little." It was still Luo Ya who took the lead, obviously he didn't believe what he said in the afternoon, and what he called Zhao Qi in his words, Zhao Qi didn't know, but Wu Min translated it was indeed Jazz.

Jazz's words...... It seems to be more similar to the Byzantine side, and it is obvious that this title is already the most honorable title that the village chief in front of him can find in his life, and as for the more noble, he obviously does not dare to call it indiscriminately.

And the reason why this name comes from Byzantium is because Sassanid Persia is actually ...... Like the Ring Sun Dynasty, it is also a caste system, in fact, the caste system comes from the Aryan tradition, and it is also inherited from ancient Persia, and it is not exclusive to the Ring Sun Dynasty.

It's just that...... This system is not so strict in Persia, it is not as perverted as the Ring Dynasty, the caste system of Sassanid Persia is actually a bit similar to the aristocratic system, while the administrative system of Sassanid Persia is the implementation of the provincial system, the supreme governor of each province, of course, the governor must also be a person of high caste.

In fact, the high caste is just the aristocracy, and this system is not much different from the aristocracy, but it is just a special perversion in the Ring Sun Dynasty.

"Village Chief Luoya, I said it, we are not short of food here, you see we unloaded a lot of food before, so take these things back of yours, we are not short here." Zhao Qi pointed to the grain they had unloaded in the camp and said.

"This ......" Luo Ya was stunned for a moment, after going back in the afternoon, what Zhao Qi and the others were doing, they all saw it, although they didn't know why the other party fell in love with this small island, but they were unloading a large amount of supplies on this island, which meant that they would stay here.

This is already a situation that cannot be changed, since this is the case, then they naturally want to have a good relationship with each other, because these people will decide their life and death in the future, which they believe very much, so they can only put together the small amount of food from each family and send it to each other.

But what he never expected was that the other party really didn't want it? Could it be that what they said in the afternoon was true?

"Village Chief Luoya, let's go back, we really don't want to, you go back first, and then tomorrow we have something to ask you for a favor." Zhao Qi said seriously.

Luo Ya hesitated, nodded for a moment, and finally went back with his things, because Zhao Qi's attitude was obviously very resolute, and he was also a little relieved, although he didn't have any culture, but as long as the other party had a place to get them, he wouldn't hurt them.

Seeing off the other party, looking at their distant torches and figures, Zhao Qi couldn't help but sigh with emotion: "It seems that we still have a long way to go, and the reputation of the Han has not yet spread all over the world." ”

"Sooner or later, it will." Wu Min said seriously and solemnly.

"Yes, I believe it too!" Zhao Qi also nodded heavily.
