Time passed, and the next day passed in a blink of an eye.

Chao Gai was refreshed, and walked out of the room with a red face, walking in a slightly awkward posture, and the words full of warmth and lust were written on his face. Behind him, Li Qingwan, Master Li, and Hu Sanniang and the three daughters followed.

Because of the nourishment of love, the three women had rosy faces, spring eyebrows, crystal ruddy skin, and even their long soft hair was shiny. Words and deeds have more mature charm, and they are more glamorous and moving than before.

On the dining table, the flowers, Jerodari noticed this change and asked enviously. What kind of rouge powder is used and how is it done?

Chao Gai sighed that the two girls were ignorant, how did they know that it was Lao Tzu's hard work so far that several women were rejuvenated and became amorous.

But when he looked at Li Qingzhao, who had come over, he not only noticed that the woman was somewhat envious, but also remembered that it was a little embarrassing to be heard in Chaojiazhuang. The woman, on the other hand, had a flushed face and kept her head down and drank porridge.

I had a hearty seafood breakfast at the Shuizhai Canteen.

Chaogai took his ladies and guards and set out on a tour of the island. Others, including Li Jun and others, didn't know, and no one knew this island better than him.

Ju Island, also called "Elephant Island" by the locals, in the northeast corner of the island, there is a huge reef, like an elephant drinking water, hence the name.

As for the name of Yangma Island, it was called by the Qing Dynasty. It is named because it is said that Qin Shi Huang had raised horses here during his eastern tour, and there is no exquisite study of authenticity.

The earliest historical events recorded in local documents took place in the last years of the Jin Dynasty. At this time, most people in the Song Dynasty did not know that there was such an island.

The entire Song Dynasty had a very weak grip on overseas.

First, the navy is not taken seriously, and second, the islands lack resources and poor living conditions. In later generations, Long Island, that is, Salmon Island, was only a place of exile for prisoners, but a large area of land was not well fed and clothed, as can be proved.

The reason why Chao Gai developed a navy from the time of his fortune is that he considers this as the most important thing, and there are many islands in the Bohai Bay, more than 40 of them. Not only does it serve as a naval base, but it also provides a lot of food. The most important thing is to have a turf to raise horses, train the navy, etc.

Just like this Ju Island, it is 30 kilometers away from Langyantai, with a total area of about 10 square kilometers. The island is hilly and undulating, the vegetation is verdant, the mountains and the sea are beautiful, the island is northeast and southwest, and the terrain is gentle in the south and steep in the north.

The sea in front of the island is wide, calm and calm, and there are many algae, which is a place where schools of fish are concentrated. The reefs behind the island are rugged, mostly dozens of cliffs, and the waves crash on the shore.

The terrain at the east end is flat, the best horse grazing grounds, the sea side is clear water and golden sand, and the scenery is unique. The west end of the water is deep and the waves are small, the natural harbor, the Chaojia military water village, the wharf, the dock are located, and the surrounding houses are military areas.

There is a village on the land and sea in the southeast of the island, called Jucheng. It is said that it is a city, but it is a village, which is worth hundreds of families, gathered together.

In addition to the ethnic dialects, many of the people here can speak Chinese. According to the people, their ancestors can be traced back to the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, and Jucheng and Judao originated from a settlement after the Ju people moved eastward.

Because of the long relationship of time, there is no document, and most of them are passed down from generation to generation. But the architecture and the clothes of the people here are very old-fashioned. Although there are not many people in the village, they have all kinds of food, clothing, housing and transportation.

Ju Island in later generations with its beautiful mountains and seas and pleasant climate, no severe cold in winter, no scorching heat in summer, the average annual temperature of more than 10 degrees, known as the "Oriental Hawaii", the beauty of the scenery, is really rare. Especially in ancient times more than 1,000 years ago, it was sparsely populated and unspoiled. Surrounded by the sea, it looks like a brilliant emerald.

The island is rich in resources, surrounded by many aquatic products, rich in sea cucumbers, scallops, abalone, prawns, oysters, swan eggs and other seafood, which has a long reputation.

Chao Gai has been to several islands in Shandong, not to mention how familiar he is, but at least he understands something. Squeezed the two local boys aside, and took everyone around the island like a tour guide's brother, pointing out the country's explanation.

Compared to when he traveled before, the general outline of the island has not changed much. But the vegetation is more lush, the water is more blue and clear, the scenery is more beautiful, and all in all, the island is a treasure trove of feng shui.

"Husband, the scenery here is very good, so we will come here in the winter and summer in the future?" Li Qingwan, Li Shishi, Hu Sanniang and other women were very happy when they heard Chao Gai say. Feeling cool and comfortable on the island, asking for winter to summer solstice.

"If the soldiers are still using their lives, and the great cause has not been accomplished, how can you and I be greedy for pleasure?" Chao Gai sternly rejected his wife's proposal. said it very loudly, so that the generals and soldiers could hear it, which naturally aroused the white eyes of women.

"Hmph, you don't love us if you love the country."

"It's just, just say, why are you so loud?"

Along the way, several women said similar things in a weird manner. Chao Gai felt the look of "you wait for me" and knew that the matter was not over.

The crowd took a look at the topography of the island. When I returned again, it was already noon, and the Shuizhai Canteen had already prepared lunch.

Needless to say, another seafood feast!

Except for a few unlucky eggs who are allergic to seafood, everyone is eating seafood again. Women are born with a love of seafood, and their cheeks are bulging. This one calls the husband, that one calls the brother, and some people directly shake it.

Chao Gai was very busy again, helping Li Qingwan and Master Li pry scallop oysters, and peeling lobsters for Li Qingzhao, cutting fish pieces for Hua Zi and Hu Sanniang.

He sometimes wonders, what's the point of having more wives? Is it the gimmick of a group of wives and concubines? In fact, it is physically and mentally tired, painful and happy.

Fortunately, Guo Sheng and Chao Qiang were accompanied by two big men, and they did not seem abrupt. Han Shizhong, Han Yong, Yelu Zonglin and the others will be busy eating, and they can't care about anything else.

It's dusk! Li Jun and Fei Bao led two naval armies to return to the harbor one after another.

It happened to start from Chaojiazhuang and arrive at the fleet that took the Beiqing River into the sea.

It consists of several passenger boats of 2,000 materials.

In addition to the medical team that has been studying under Antao for several months, it is specially prepared materials. Such as rainproof cloths, high-concentration alcohol and fried dough cakes, etc.

The most are still wine jars, which are not filled with wine, but-

"Wow, the pickles smell so good."

Chao Gai opened the two wine jars with his own hands, and a strong sour and spicy flavor permeated. Li Qingwan, Li Shishi, Hu Sanniang and others couldn't wait to come over and watch. One has pickled radish inside, and the other has spicy cabbage.

Unlike ordinary pickles, the color is bright, like fresh vegetables.

"Husband, why is the pickle this color?" Li Qingwan asked if she didn't understand.

"That's right!" Everyone nodded, and they had the impression that the pickles were all black and not slippery, and they had never seen such brightly colored pickles before.

"Of course, it's a secret brew, No, one per person eats and sees." Chao Gai smiled mysteriously and handed out a pickled radish to everyone present. The sauce is rich in flavor and has a sour and delicious taste.

Master Li took a bite of radish, squinted his eyes and asked, "Why didn't you have it before?" ”

Chao Gai saw a few women looking over and shook the jar in his hand: "This is a few months ago, Chaojiazhuang purchased vegetables from the people and carefully prepared them. Not long ago, the first batch was good, and the voyage came in handy. ”

"It's for us?" Li Jun was stunned.

"yes!" Chao Gai nodded with a smile, and looked at Hu Cheng again: "Uncle, you have been to the sea before, I don't know if someone will suffer from blood after a long time?" ”

Hu Cheng nodded again and again: "Yes, yes, the first time I went to sea, I started to have nosebleeds after seven or eight days, and I died of discomfort, and then I recuperated on the island." ”

"It was caused by eating seafood and dry food for a long time, not vegetables." Chao Gai's face was serious, and he took out a pickled radish and ate it.

It's sour and crunchy, and it tastes good.

"With these two kinds of kimchi, when you sail to sea, the chance of getting sick will be greatly reduced, and you will not even have sepsis, and you will suffer a lot less."

"I see!" Only then did everyone figure it out.

"If that's the case, the voyage will be much smoother." Hu Cheng smiled and blossomed.

Li Jun and Ertong looked at Chao Gai with admiration on their faces: "Brother, you are so thoughtful." Able to write and martial arts, and proficient in medical skills, he is really a god! ”

"Just a little bit of understanding!" Chao Gai habitually waved his hand modestly, and then asked Li Jun and Fei Bao to distribute several boats of supplies according to the ratio of 28. He also told Li Jun and the others to get ready, and ordered them to go down and arrange a banquet.

The voyage is imminent, and it will take at least half a month to go back and forth.

The officers and men of the Seventh Army were ordered to begin preparations, the ships began to be further overhauled, and large quantities of grain and fresh water were brought into the warehouse. The local recruits who joined the army said goodbye to their families, and Hu Sanniang also told her brother mother-in-law. The boatmen boarded the ship, and the medical team and medicinal herbs were dispatched to each ship......

The preparations continued until the early morning of the third day, and a fleet of more than a dozen large ships slowly sailed out of the harbor and set sail with the expectations of the Chao family generals.

"Let's go! It's been a good few days, and you've started training. Chao Gai stood on the pier and watched Li Jun and the others go away, turned to look at Han Shizhong, Guo Sheng, Chao Qiang, Han Yong and many pro-fierce men and women.

Everyone was stared at by his gloomy eyes, and no one dared to ask more.

Next, all these people in his family were handed over to the Red Whisker Dragon Fei Bao to bring. Except for Guo Sheng and Chao Qiang, everyone including Han Shizhong couldn't run away.

It is necessary to adapt to the environment in the sea as soon as possible!

Like in the original trajectory, several Liangshan generals fell into the water and drowned because of their impermeability. Chao Gai has always wondered, can't he learn to stay in the eight hundred miles of water? Therefore, when the new army enlisted, swimming was one of the training subjects.

Now that you're at the beach, it's natural to feel the difference of the sea.

Chao Jiajun's training includes swimming and water warfare, which is not difficult. But it was a challenge for most men and women from the north. Each man was manned with several sailors, and he carried a net bag for mandatory training.

Chao Gai had already told Fei Bao to be strict with the exercises, and he sent these people away and ignored them. And he himself took a few ladies and went straight to the east of the island.

Guo Sheng and Chao Qiang didn't run away, and the reason why they were kicked out. Not only do you have to train, but you also have to be responsible for teaching your own friendship.

For more than a month, the women met all the standards, but the swimming could not be started. One is that there are many inconveniences in Waichaojiazhuang, and the other is caused by environmental limitations.

Now that you have this opportunity, you have to train well.
