Wait until the boat is docked.

Hanyu Machang hurriedly went.

And Cheng Shun is also close behind.

After all, he built the ship according to the drawings of the Divine Envoy.

If something goes wrong, he is also responsible.

"Your Majesty, I am fortunate to be blessed by the Lord of the East China Sea, and I have gained a lot this time!"

Moser was beaming with joy and clasped his fists.

Hearing this, a smile appeared on Hanyu Matsuki's face.

After all, such sacrifices are above all a good omen.

Even if the previous event is grand, if there is little gain in this link, it will inevitably be very demoralizing.

But for now, it seems to be a good success.

So, Hanyu Machang spoke:

"Where's the catch? Hurry up and show it to the king. ”

Moser agreed, along with the fishermen on the boat, to remove the fish from the boat's crates one by one.

Seeing this, Hanyu Machang finally showed a reassuring smile.

The onlookers cheered loudly.

After fishing out all the fish, Moser knelt down respectfully and said, "Your Majesty, please pay tribute to the Lord!" ”

The so-called sacrifice to the lord is to select the best fish from the fish caught at sea and release it.

According to the perception of the people of the Ryukyus, this fish will swim to the Ryugu Palace with the faith of the entire Ryukyu Kingdom, and eventually bring it to the Lord of the East.

Then in the coming year, the lord of the East will still bless the Ryukyu with good weather and rain, and the fishermen will return with a full load.

Hanyu readily agreed, and began to select the fish to be released.

Suddenly, his face changed and he exclaimed.

Everyone followed Hanyu's gaze.

Among the many catches, there was a golden and slender fish.

Moser was stunned for a moment, and said in ecstasy: "The Lord of the East hangs the curtain!" ”

Immediately afterwards, a group of people shouted wildly: "The Lord of the East hangs the curtain!" ”

Then, in the midst of such a shout, Hanyu stepped forward cautiously, and then respectfully held the fish in both hands.

After that, he took the fish to the shore and slowly put it in the water.

The fish came into contact with the water, quickly broke free from Hanyu Masa's grasp, and swam out into the open sea.

"The messenger is gone!"

Hanyu Matsuki was relieved and spoke.

The crowd stopped shouting and simply turned their gaze to the east.

There, it is the residence of their deceased relatives, and it is also the dormitory of the lord of the East, the Dragon Palace!

"Mosser, take someone to cook fish!"

"Yes, Your Majesty!"

The final part of the sacrifice.

The fish caught were cooked on the spot and distributed to all the people present.

And the people who eat these fish are equivalent to being blessed by the lord of the East China Sea, even if they encounter wind and waves at sea, they can escape death.

Of course, this is just the best wishes of the Ryukyuan people.

As for whether it can work, then it can only be seen by the benevolent, and the wise can see the wise!

It's getting dark.

The sacrifice was finally completed.

Hanyu Mako was also relieved.

This time the sacrifice was faster than any before.

Because Moser they soon caught a whole net of fish.

In previous years, it was sometimes necessary to wait for a half day or a day for the ship to return.

In this way, the time of the sacrifice is extended to the next day.

Even if the ship is fast enough, it will take the middle of the night to complete the sacrifice.

Back in the palace, Hanyu Shinchang summoned Cheng Shun.

"Cheng Qing, you have made great contributions to this shipbuilding, let's talk about it, what reward do you want!"

Because the festival went smoothly, Hanyu Mahiro was also in a happy mood, and even the rewards were a lot more generous.

But Cheng Shun didn't dare to take the opportunity to ask for a reward, but said:

"Your Majesty, the minister is just following the drawings of the divine envoy to build the ship."

"If you want to talk about the merit, it is the god who made the great man the highest merit, and Mosser, who brought the drawings back to the Ryukyus, is second."

"My credit (this chapter is not over!) )

Chapter 156: Fishing Boats

Not enough to mention! ”

When Hanyu heard this, he couldn't help but show a relieved expression.

How can one of his courtiers not be pleased if he is so humble?

"Cheng Qing's words are wrong! If it weren't for you and the craftsmen who worked day and night, the boat on the other side would not have been completed so quickly! ”

"Besides, in the future, you need to continue to work hard to build the remaining more than 400 ships on the other side."

"In this way, I, the people of the Ryukyus, will be able to walk on the sea!"

Cheng Shun should be.

Hanyu smiled and said, "So let's talk about it! Whatever reward you need, the king will grant you. ”

Hearing this, Cheng Shun bowed down and said: "Your Majesty, the minister really has something to ask for!" ”

"Oh?" Hanyu Zhenchang smiled and said, "Cheng Qing might as well say it." ”

"The minister heard that the king had obtained the blueprints of the fishing boat, and asked His Majesty to hand over the important task of building the fishing boat to His Majesty!"

Cheng Shun's eyes exuded blazing heat!

If you can build an artifact ship for hunting Kunzhi Behemoths, you have no regrets in this life!

"You're well-informed." Hanyu couldn't help but laugh.

"Please answer the king!" Cheng Shun goodbye.

"Okay, okay, I'm in the Ryukyu Kingdom, who else can take on this important task besides you?" Hanyu Zhenchang raised his hand to help Cheng Shun up and said.

Hearing this, Cheng Shun was overjoyed: "The king agreed?" ”

"Promised!" Hanyu nodded.

"But ......"

Cheng Shun's heart tightened.

"However, the construction of the fishing boat needs to be placed behind the boat on the other side."

"After all, the boat on the other side can keep the people well fed."

"And the fishing of Kun, although the benefits are great, but after all, it is my Ryukyu people who fought with their lives!"

At this time, Hanyu Machang was surprisingly calm.

He knew that it would be as difficult to fight or even hunt down this sea beast.

Even if you have the blueprints of the fishing boat provided by the Divine Envoy, waiting for the ship to be built can certainly reduce the risk.

But in any case, the people still have to go with the determination to fight to the death.

As for the survival rate, it is even more unknown.

"The minister understands, and obeys the king's will." Cheng Shun was overjoyed.

His Majesty's words were nothing more than to make him aware of the priorities, but he also entrusted him with the heavy responsibility of building a fishing boat.

That's enough for here!

He can afford to wait!

"But it's not a reward!" Hanyu said.

"So be it! This king will give you a hundred taels of gold, and a thousand hectares of fertile land! ”

"Thank you, Your Majesty!" Cheng Shun took the reward.

In fact, these rewards were not a big deal to him.

He's just a lonely craftsman.

has no wife and no children, and seeks the Tao wholeheartedly.

The money and the land were things outside of his body, and he could not use them at all.

You can't put down the shipbuilding business in your hand and go to farming!

So he doesn't need these things at all.

But how can Your Majesty's reward be excused?

He should go down, and although he can't use it himself, he can also accumulate it.

If you are short of money for research or construction of a new ship one day, you can also take it out and sell it to get a sum of money for emergencies.

Of course, if he had been in the royal service, he would not have lacked money for shipbuilding.
