Chapter Ninety-Four: The Kingdom of Qianluo
"What are you afraid of, since the lord asked us, then we just do it, anyway, before we go to sea, at least let everyone be able to adapt to driving on the sea, at least not unstable."
Wang Degui gritted his teeth and said word by word
Now he knew why the lord attached so much importance to navigation
If you can't even stand on your feet, once you encounter pirates at sea, you will really die.
Little by little, time passed
The barbarians were trained by Guo Chunhua to survive and die, but it is undeniable that although they are landlubbers, after simple training, they can at least now be able to stand firm on the ship and will not get dizzy and plunge into it
Except for a few individuals who are very seasick and vomit up and down, the vast majority of them are able to gain a firm foothold in the waves
The most important thing in addition to this is to learn to swim, which is a headache for many brute troops
Many people are landlubbers, who have only been taught by the stream at home all their lives, and now they have to learn to swim in the middle of the sea, which is really creepy, and every time they will end in failure, it can be said that it is quite troublesome. There are even many people who can't learn how to swim
And this situation was fed back to Chen Zhang, he was very simple, said a sentence directly, and came up with a method,
On the second day, Guo Chunhua gritted his teeth and sailed the boat to the middle of the river, kicking the foot that couldn't swim. Let him struggle desperately in the river, and when he is dying, he will pull up again for first aid and save him
Ask him if he will.
No, just keep kicking it
Although this method is simpler and more brutal than the following, and even life-threatening, it is undeniable that the speed of learning to swim is increasing rapidly at a speed that can be seen by the naked eye.
At the same time, the ship traveled slowly by the three masters for nearly three days and finally docked at a small remote country, the country of Qianluo.
The country of Chila is said to be a country, but in fact it is composed of several islands, and there are not many people here, but it has a port.
For many businessmen, although they know that overseas emotional intelligence has reached the sea, they have never gone out
After all, there is a great risk at sea, once you encounter wind and waves, you will definitely die, this time if it is not to go to the so-called Penglai Immortal Island, I am afraid that no one will be willing to take a boat to go
After arriving in the country of Chila, they loaded and unloaded their goods and traded them with the locals, and this time many merchants knew that their goods were so valuable overseas
This entry and exit has already made them a lot of money, if it weren't for the fact that they would go to Penglai Immortal Island, it is estimated that many of them would think of turning around and going home directly
It can be said that maritime business is indeed a very lucrative thing, and the premise is that you are lucky enough not to encounter pirates, nor to encounter strong winds and waves.
"That's what makes money. That's what makes money. ”
Liu Fucai looked at the large amount of money in front of him and gasped
This time he did spend a lot of money and goods to join the caravan, and in addition, he naturally brought some goods, not much
It's just pretending to be a businessman, but I didn't expect that when I came to this Qianluo country, the price would at least increase by seven or eight times
What is this concept?
This was the first time that he felt that making money was such an easy thing
The same is true of Zhao Zhi on the side
The conscience of heaven and earth, Zhao Zhi used to be just a child of a poor family, although he finally followed the lord Chen Zhang as a rogue, but he is also a person who is used to living a hard life, so he naturally knows the importance of money
In his eyes, it was very difficult to make money, and almost every penny had to be moved into two cents to spend, and he never thought that it was such a lucrative thing to be a maritime businessman
You know, it's just moving the goods to another place, and the money comes like water
It was simply unacceptable to him.
"So much money, if it weren't for my personal experience, I wouldn't have believed it, in the past, we farmed at home, and we could only earn some food and clothing all year round, but if you look at it now, there is so much money, and this is just that we came here to sell the goods, neither the wind nor the umbrella, this is really unfair, too unfair"
Zhao Zhi's three views were almost destroyed, and for him, this was really something he didn't expect
He never thought that it would be so easy to make money, so easy that it was beyond his expectations, and Liu Fucai was the same
As a true literati, everything he learned was to sell to the emperor's family, but it was undeniable that in them, it seemed that the merchant was the lowliest, and he simply belonged to Xia Jiuniu
He never imagined that he would make money to such an extent
After all, in his opinion, these businessmen are just transporting one thing to another place to sell money, making some hard-earned money, which is of no use to the country, and will only evade taxes
But the violence at sea really shocked him
He even had the idea that the speed of making money on the sea was much faster than attacking the city.
Of course, the premise is that there will be no other effects such as piracy and wind and waves
In a way, maritime is really very profitable
"Okay, let's not talk about that, now I know why the lord has to go overseas, I didn't expect it to be so profitable on seafood, compared to us attacking cities on land and risking our lives, it's really not worth it"
Liu Fucai was completely convinced
To be honest, if it weren't for the lord's strong request to go overseas, even if the lord told them that there was a lot of money on the sea, they probably wouldn't have believed it
After all, this is too far away for them
"Yes, that's right, that's right"
"I'll just say, as long as we listen to the lord, the lord will never treat us badly. It would definitely be a wise choice to follow the lord, said"
That's right, that's right. It is indeed a wise choice to follow the Lord Continent."
Liu Fucai nodded heavily, then turned around and whispered
"How, did you succeed in what you did? Didn't let anyone say that they found it, did they? ”
Zhao Zhidao
"Don't worry, I have already thrown down the planks every day as the lord ordered, as long as you follow our ship and find the plank, you can always follow us, but it is very strange why the lord did this? Could it be that the lord also wants to follow and directly find the place where Penglai Immortal Island is located? ”
"We don't know that, we just need to listen to the Lord's orders, understand?"
"I see?
Zhao Zhi nodded.
"Hahaha, this is the country of Qianluo, we have always heard of the country of Qianluo, many businessmen have come here, but if you want to say that you have seen it with your own eyes, this is really the first time, I didn't expect the country of Qianluo to grow like this?
The three masters stood on the boat, watching the people who were trading below, and they were constantly moving all kinds of goods down, and then exchanging them for the goods they needed.
The head of the Wang family chuckled and shook his head, his eyes flashing with a hint of brilliance. Said word by word
"Having said that, this Qianluo country is simply too different from us, but I didn't expect that the most famous thing here is the jewelry, the jewelry here is not valuable, we just need to return the money and we can make a lot of money, now that I think about it, we would have come here a long time ago when we wanted me to know where the Qianluo country is, where would we have been so close to us for so many years that the Qianluo Kingdom would be so close to us in this place,"
The head of the Wang family said with a look of pity
The biggest difference between the ocean and the land is that the ocean is endless, and you can't tell the difference between the east and the west
In other words, in the absence of a nautical map, once you deviate from the course, it will be greeted with only two possibilities, either you can find the path to sail and find land, or you will die in the middle of the sea, directly due to the shortage of food and water
It's life-threatening
That's exactly what happened. It is very important to have a well-established nautical route
The three masters will not easily let people avoid these three major navigation routes and open up new navigation routes by themselves
Especially in the case of doing business.
On the ocean, once you get out of the course, it is equivalent to giving your life to the unknown, which is a matter of looking for death
It is precisely because of this that even if this Qianluo country is not too far away from this sea, it has never been discovered
After all, it is too dangerous to get out of the sea.
"The head of the Wu family, you are not good, it is such a good place, you should have told us a long time ago, everyone has money to earn together, this is right?"
The head of the Li family said with a smile, saying so, but there was also some dissatisfaction in his tone
After all, to be able to invent a new route is to make a fortune
The head of the Wu family said with a wry smile
"I said that according to our family's family rules, if it weren't for the plan of life and death, I wouldn't have come up with this navigation route map, and this is the first time I've come to this Qianluo country."
Lord Wu smiled bitterly
He really didn't think that such a thing would be able to earn so much, the most important thing is that the jewelry here is indeed cheap, as long as it is transferred back, it will definitely be able to make a lot of money, he never thought that the priceless jewelry in the Dachang Empire would be so cheap here, if he didn't see it with his own eyes, he couldn't believe it at all.
Thinking of this, I even thought that even if I didn't go to Penglai Immortal Island, it would be worth going back now
But such a thought only quietly turned in his mind twice, and he immediately forgot about it
No kidding
Money is gone, and you can make it again. But if they dare to offend that adult, haha, I'm afraid that what awaits them is really only a dead end
And compared to other people, the most important thing is to let your children glorify their ancestors.
