Seeing everyone's worried looks, Wang Qingyun smiled.

"Just give him a boat!"

A boat? Everyone shook their heads when they heard this, what are you kidding, is Li Yong such a good person? Li Yong is not stupid, he must also know everyone's plans, give him a boat, how could he risk exposing the secrets of Spice Island to pull a boatload of spices back? Not to mention, there are three or five boats, and if there are enough benefits, Li Yong will be willing to take risks with the psychology of luck, Cui Guang shook his head and said.

"You underestimate Li Yong too much, his industry is full of money, and I'm afraid a boat won't be able to impress him."

Everyone nodded, Li Yong was a person who was not bad for money, how could a mere boat impress him? Wang Qingyun said with a smile.

"I asked him if he would go to sea as long as there was a boat."

Wang Qingyun didn't believe it when he heard it, but Li Yong did say so, Cui Guang and the others were stunned when they heard it, and Li Yong was willing to go to sea with only one boat? Li Yong is so easy to dismiss? Or is Li Yong stupid? No, there must be a conspiracy in this, Cui Guang and the others glanced at each other, and they all saw the smell of surprise and conspiracy in the eyes of the other party, who is Li Yong? At the beginning, he gambled hundreds of thousands of yuan, but he won but directly donated it to build roads, so bold and generous, is he a person who values money? Will the secrets of the Spice Island be exposed for the sake of a mere shipment of spices?

"There must be a conspiracy in this."

The crowd affirmed.

"Yes, how could Li Yong expose Spice Island for a boatload of spices? He's not stupid. ”

Facing everyone's questions, Wang Qingyun groaned.

"I've also been thinking about this question, there are just two possibilities, one, Li Yong is not afraid of exposing the spice island at all, and he is confident that he can get rid of our ship. Two, he doesn't care about Spice Island at all! He knew a lot of overseas secrets, knew that there was more wealth there, and didn't look down on Spice Island at all, so he didn't care about throwing Spice Island to us. ”

After listening to Wang Qingyun's words, everyone couldn't help nodding, it is true that there are these two possibilities, Li Yong always has some strange skills, and it is not impossible to get something to get rid of their ship, however, they feel that the second one may be greater, because they can't help but think of the news of the past two days, the country is rich in silver, Wang Qingyun said with a smile.

"You should all know that the Wa Kingdom is rich in silver."

It's not a secret, and everyone laughs when they look at it.

"We did hear about it, and we inquired about it with the Japanese people, and there are indeed a lot of silver mines in the Japanese country."

Someone wondered.

"Why did the Japanese say that there was no silver at all in the Japanese country when I inquired?"

Cui Guang said with a smile.

"That's because the next day they collectively changed their tunes, and they just wanted to cover it up."

"However, the huge silver mine that Li Yong said, these Japanese people really don't seem to know."

Wang Qingyun nodded.

"That secret should be in Li Yong's hands, just like Spice Island."

Cui Guang said with a smile.

"Then give Li Yong a boat, if he wants to get rid of us, then I want to see how he gets rid of it, if he is not afraid of exposing the secrets of Spice Island, then we will occupy Spice Island first."

Everyone nodded after hearing this, since Li Yong is willing to go to sea as long as he has a boat, then give him a boat, silence, everyone, you look at me, I look at you, no one speaks anymore, because the next question is who is out of this ship, this is not just a ship's problem, one less ship means one less ship of spices, no, not just a ship of spices! After all, the boat is not a disposable, Wang Qingyun smiled slightly.

"Our Taiyuan royal family's foundation in the south is not as good as yours, plus these are all things I talked about with Li Yong, so this ship should not be from our Taiyuan royal family."

Cui Guang smiled slightly.

"Since our five surnames and seven hopes, we are naturally out of this sea boat together."

Go to sea, spices! It is too far away for ordinary people, and everyone is only talking about it because of the sensation of dozens of boats of spices, and when the heated discussion has passed, it will pass, only those who are qualified to participate in this feast are constantly busy, approaching the end of the year, the weather is cold, but the noble families in Chang'an City have sent people south, not only Chang'an City, but also Luoyang, because of the cement road, the communication between Chang'an and Luoyang has become fast and convenient, so the news of the appearance of twenty cars of spices in Chang'an soon spread to Luoyang, There are also many wealthy families in Luoyang, and they have also sent people south to inquire about the situation, no one wants to miss this feast, but the most eye-catching Li Jiazhuang is very quiet, Li Yong did not send people south at all, because the existing shipbuilding materials have long been surrounded by the five surnames and seven wang and the southern Wang family, as for looking for new shipbuilding materials, what about Li Er? Don't worry about him, Li Er has already sent someone to cut down the tree, although everyone sent people south, but basically in vain, but in a few years, the number of sea ships will definitely explode, so when the enthusiasm for going to sea in the entire Chang'an and Luoyang is unprecedentedly high, Li Yong is lazily leaning on the soft collapse, the room is warm like spring, and the fragrance hits people, Li Lizhi came with a cup of tea, and asked with a smile.

"Lang Jun, do our people really don't do anything?"

Li Yong said with a smile.

"What are our people going to do? I'm waiting for the five surnames and seven wangs to send me money! ”

Li Lizhi snorted and laughed.

"How could they send money to Lang Jun? So what are they doing with all the materials for shipbuilding in their hands? ”

Li Yong said with a smile.

"I think they're going to send me money, or how about we make a bet?"

Li Li's cheeks flew instantly, and she said coquettishly.

"I don't bet with Lang Jun!"

Every time she bets, Li Yong will make some embarrassing requests, so this time she will never be fooled.

"Don't gamble."

Li Yong said with a smile, and after speaking, he lowered his head and drank tea without care, seeing that Li Yong didn't care like this, Li Lizhi became worried again, and said softly.

"Lang Jun is angry?"

"Angry? Why be angry? If you don't gamble or not, don't worry, when are you not obedient? ”

Li Yong blinked and said with a smile, this is indeed the case, he didn't reply to Lang Jun's embarrassing request, he said don't want it before, and finally obeyed obediently, thinking of this, Li Lizhi couldn't help but react, and said with a red face.

"Then I decided to bet with Lang Jun!"

Li Yong said with a smile.

"Okay, if you lose, you can promise me a request, or the old rule, if I lose, I'll give you a massage, how about it?"

Yingluo walked in from outside, and couldn't help but purse her lips and laugh when she heard this.

"Hou Ye, princess, Yu Chi Baolin, they asked to see Hou Ye."

Since returning to Chang'an, these days Yu Chi Baolin and a few of them can be described as infinitely beautiful, the reason why they followed to the sea at the beginning, on the one hand, there were some variables in Chang'an, Yu Chi Gong and they had no choice but to let them follow Li Yong, on the other hand, because they were young and wanted to break through, there were many people who were not small, but they didn't even marry a mother-in-law, except for Yu Chi Baolin, a few of them were not worried, but those under his command were different, if it weren't for the fact that Hou Ye had a career and carried them, they still belonged to the family who had eaten the last meal and did not have the next meal, However, they have everything when they come back from the sea this time, fields, shops, money, spices, and the rewards of the Hou Ye are not unsubstantial, although they have been back for less than ten days, but the people who come to the door to propose relatives have broken the threshold, they are surprised, very grateful, and a little uneasy, because to be honest, although they are tired, they suffer from the bumps and bumps, but they actually didn't do anything, just follow Cheng Chuhei and Yu Chi Baolin to do chores, pulling these dozens of carts of spices, they know that the Hou Ye will definitely reward them, But they never expected that they would receive such a big reward, and what made them even more confused was that many people had recently approached them, or made jokes, or wanted to buy the news of the spice island with a lot of money, and even some people promised them generous conditions to let them go to sea, what are they kidding? Tell us about the location of Spice Island? Going to sea with you? Not to mention the kindness of the Hou Ye, we don't want to die? Don't want our family's lives? Yu Chi Baolin They are very disdainful, only fools will believe it! During this time, they were very beautiful, but now they couldn't sit still, because they heard that now those noble clans have sent people to the south, but the Hou Ye has not moved, and they have never waited for any news, and they have gathered together and come here.

"I've seen the Admiral."

Yu Chi Baolin and others respectfully saluted.

"I heard that the matchmaker who told you recently broke the threshold? Is there a suitable girl? I'll give you a back-up gift in advance. ”

Li Yong said with a smile, Yu Chi Baolin is nothing, because he has never done this at all, but those people under his command immediately laughed a little embarrassed when they heard it, before going to sea, they wanted to marry a daughter-in-law and give birth to a big fat boy, but now they feel that marrying a daughter-in-law is so troublesome, it is better to go to sea, to see the scenery on the sea, to fight the wind and waves, although it is hard, but that is what a man does, it is much better than nesting in Chang'an.

"Master Hou, in fact, we don't want to get married, we want to go to sea, we want to bring another boat of spices back to Master Hou."

Yu Chi Baolin said respectfully, and Li Yong said with a smile.

"Don't you just want to have a wife and have children? Why don't you want to get married again in the end? If you want to go to sea, you are not in a hurry, and you will not delay going to sea if you want to get married! ”

How can getting married not delay going to sea? Now that those noble people are going south, how can they have time to get married? We must hurry up and go south! They felt that they already had experience with Cheng Chusi and Yu Chi Baolin, and of course they were the right candidates, and Yu Chi Baolin and the others said in unison.

"Why don't you delay, even the little ones have heard that those big families have sent people south, Master Hou, we can't be left behind! The little Mao then recommended himself and asked for orders to lead a fleet to sea. ”

"You've only been back in Chang'an for a few days, and you're going to sea again? Stay at home well, accompany your father and mother, and if you can, marry your mother-in-law. ”

Li Yong said with a smile, Yu Chi Baolin and the others chuckled in their hearts when they heard this, could it be that the Hou Ye didn't let them go to sea?

"Master Hou, these days, there are many people who have found the little ones, and they are promises, and they are clichés, and there are people who want to betray the little ones and lead their people to sea, but the little ones have all scolded them away, and they didn't say a word about what they shouldn't say, and it is impossible to betray the general, Admiral Mingjian!"

Yu Chi Baolin said urgently.

"The little one is loyal to the Hou Ye, if he has a trace of dissent, he is willing to hit five thunders in the sky."

Li Yong didn't have a good airway.

"Alright, don't swear here, if I don't believe you, I'll blast you out."

When Yu Chi Baolin and the others heard this, they suddenly breathed a sigh of relief in their hearts, it turned out that the Hou Ye didn't trust them! Why is that? Because I pity them just came back, can't bear to let them run again? Moved, so moved, Yu Chi Baolin and the others thanked him.

"Can't the Admiral bear to let us run around again? It's okay, we are young, in fact, we don't feel tired, we have come back to rest these days, our bodies are almost rusty, please send us to the sea! ”

"Even if you are not tired, you should spend more time with your parents, besides, now these big families are sending people south to find a boat, which is simply in vain."

Li Yong said with a smile, Yu Chi Baolin and they naturally understood it if they had been to the south, but they were still unwilling and looked forward to it.

"Admiral, what if it happens?"

Li Yong laughed.

"You guys are really idle, don't worry, stay in Chang'an for two months, and there will be a boat in the spring, if the plan goes well, you can't think about it when the time comes."

Yu Chi Baolin and they must have suddenly danced with joy, as long as they have a boat, they can go to sea if they have a boat!

"The little one is willing to be sent by the Admiral at any time."

Yu Chi Baolin and the others said in unison, their tones full of excitement.

"I see that you have also rested in the past few days, since you don't want to get married, then go to school in the academy, there is nothing wrong with learning more knowledge."

Li Yong said with a smile, and the smiles on the faces of Yu Chi Baolin and the others suddenly froze, what? Going to school? This is even more terrifying than going out to sea to hang a flagpole, Yu Chi Baolin and the others laughed dryly.

"Master Hou, this is not necessary, right? The school was full of teenagers, and we were all in our twenties, and it was a joke to go to school with a bunch of kids. ”

"Master Hou, in fact, a few of us want to get married."

"Yes, yes, yes, Master Hou, we want to get married, we were just afraid of delaying the sea, so we said we didn't want to get married."

Li Yong said with a smile on his face.

"Marriage is naturally handled by your parents and elders, and it will not delay your schooling."

Yu Chi Baolin and the others said with bitter faces.

"Master Hou, do you really want to go to school? Can you not go? ”

Li Yong smiled for a long time.

"Do you know why you should go to school?"

Yu Chi Baolin shook his head and said.

"I don't know."

Do you still need to be literate when you go to sea? I don't need it at all! This is not an official and a general, Li Yong said leisurely.

"I'm cultivating you, do you want to build a boat in the future? Or do you think my Combined Fleet is all about that? If you want to be successful, literacy is a must, arithmetic is also a must, and it is better to learn scientific knowledge. ”

Good literacy? Want to learn arithmetic? Still need to learn science? Although they knew that they understood Hou Ye's hard work and knew that Hou Ye wanted to cultivate, Yu Chi Baolin and they still couldn't help but feel numb on their scalps, they had already expected that as long as they returned to Chang'an in the future, they would have to enter the school.
