"In my opinion, although this ship is large, if you count it in the Song Dynasty, it is only a decent treasure ship, which is not surprising." After Sun Daqiao finished speaking, Xu Xiake walked to the stone platform and said: "Then why, when we arrived in the Yuan and Ming dynasties until the previous dynasty, we couldn't see such a big ship?" "What Xu Xiake said is true, let's not talk about it from afar, let's just say that the nearest dynasty to them, no matter how big the official ship is, it is only fifty or sixty meters, and even, the imperial court can't even build a ship to go to sea, so it can only be forbidden at sea, if it weren't for the fact that the country was closed for three hundred years and was too ignorant and backward, it would not be hung and beaten by the Western powers.

Yue Qingshan looked at these buildings, and said with a serious look in his eyes: "I remember that I said a few times ago that since the Tang and Song dynasties, the thousand-year-old wood has been exhausted, plus the foreign dynasty, many ancient technologies have also been lost, and by the time of the previous dynasty, whether it was the people or the government, they could no longer come up with any good technology, and the most obvious regression in the level of civilization was actually the previous dynasty." After speaking, Yue Guanchao took advantage of the treasure ship's proximity to the stone platform, and directly untied the wooden plank suspension at the bow of the treasure ship, and with a boom, the suspension bridge was built on the stone platform, raising a layer of dust.

Yue Guanchao first tried it with the back of the knife to make sure that the plank was as strong as usual, and then led everyone to the deck.

After boarding the ship, the clatter gradually disappeared, and they stood on the huge ship, the hull of the ship swayed slightly, shaking slightly from side to side, but fortunately, the amplitude was not very large, but they could stand firmly.

On the bow of the ship, a stone tablet stands in front, this stone tablet is about one person high, two meters wide, the whole body is silver-gray, the surface has been polished and smooth, the text part is carved into the stone tablet, it is clearly visible after thousands of years, and a lot of dust has accumulated on the surface.

Yue Guanchao walked to the stele, with the bag on his body slightly shaken clean, the content of the inscription is clear to the eye, Song Siyuan carefully observed the content of the inscription, the above is a narrative of meritorious sacrifice, the approximate meaning is to praise the anti-Jin righteous army for the country, love the people, at the same time, protect the treasure from the empire theft Yunyun, after that, there is the specific name of the anti-Jin righteous army, which is not only a merit monument, but also an English tomb tombstone.

"What is recorded in this inscription is the specific name of the anti-Jin rebels in these niches, this inscription is actually a tombstone, I am more curious, how many good things this treasure ship contains, according to the size of this fleet, they robbed a whole fleet.

"Why don't we go straight into the cabin and have a look." Yue Guanchao nodded at everyone, led everyone around the sails, and walked across the deck to the middle cabin.

Just now, they had only glanced at the exterior of the building from a distance, but at this moment, when they saw the treasure ship cabin up close, they noticed the details that they couldn't notice from a distance.

The building cabin is about four floors high, each floor is much smaller than the bottom floor, the top is full of helmets with cui tile fans, there is another protruding tower on the left and right, the pillar platform hugs the building, the window bucket arch, it can be regarded as a gorgeous carving, magnificent, even, there will be a looming dragon and phoenix pattern, appear on various ornaments and utensils.

This kind of ship is obviously not a civilian ship, and if it is a civilian ship, it will not use the dragon and phoenix pattern.

They walked up the steps, unlocked the hatch chain, and pushed the door into the cabin, where the interior and structure of the cabin were clearly visible with the flashlight.

Of the four floors, the first floor is connected below deck, and they only need to go up the stairs to reach the second floor.

From the second floor to the third floor, it is completely a hollow structure, the jade steps are towering to the sky, the high building of the majestic platform, the screen throne is placed in the north, and there are carved door panels on all sides to divide into boxes, it seems, the throne seems to be located in the treasure shrine, magnificent, extravagant and magnificent.

The left and right are mostly the pillars that play a supporting role, look up, you can also see the delicate carved railing on the third floor, hundreds of rooms are divided, almost come around the surroundings, the lintel and window are carved and decorated with colorful paintings, the curtain bead curtain is like a cloud, the look is like a mandala mandala, they together surround the top caisson, constitute an extremely gorgeous top space.

Those jewels are mostly placed in the empty space in front of the throne of the treasure shrine, if you want to make an analogy, this position is the large open space in front of the palace in front of the emperor when the ministers and hundreds of officials meet the emperor.

At this moment, these places were all occupied by chests, and thousands of chests were spread out in arrays, like checkerboard squares and marching arrays, and the open space was almost completely covered, and all of them were sealed.

"Looking at these decorations, probably this is not a civilian ship." Before Song Siyuan's words fell, John Hua took out a book from his backpack: "I think these ships are probably the Huanggang treasure ships recorded by General Jin Guo." John Hua opened the "Southern Tour Chronicle" in his hand, and said slowly: "The general of the Jin State is named Wan Yanlie, is the military aristocrat of the Jin State, he mentioned in the book, Song Huizong loves rare antiques...... "Song Huizong is famous for being mediocre and greedy, timid and afraid of things, and likes extravagance, since he took office, he has hardly done anything serious, and he has feasted and drunk every day except for painting, and he doesn't care about the government at all.

In the end, Song Huizong was greedy for pleasure and no longer took care of things, and asked Cai Jing to control the government, for Cai Jing, he didn't care about the hardships of the people's livelihood, and he didn't care about the official appointment, the only thing he cared about was how to keep your position.

If you understand it further, it is so able to make money for Song Huizong, and the emperor is happy, so that his position can be stable, and under his operation, treasure ships were formed in various places and began to transport rare antiques to Bianjing in a steady stream.

For example, if Huizong wants to establish Kenyue Garden, it is necessary to dig out strange stones from Jiangsu and Zhejiang, fill them all into the garden, and use strange stones to create a garden in Bianjing that is no less than that of the south of the Yangtze River.

For another example, Huizong has to lead his ministers to play polo every month, which requires foreign tribute sweat and blood horses to Bianjing, and keep them in the stables for retention, and these transported horses are called good horses.

For another example, Huizong's birthday is approaching, and all places have to pay tribute to Huizong's birthday gifts, so these gifts transported are called birthday gangs.

In short, everything that Huizong needs, can be collected to him through the treasure ship, and in the end, there are treasure ships arriving in Bianjing every day of the month, what flowers and birds, calligraphy and painting, treasures, furs, splendid flowers, scholars, etc., must be piled up in Bianjing into a sea of gold and silver.

All treasures need a fleet to transport, about every ten ships for a program, therefore, these treasure ships are also called Yungang ships, each time the dragon flag fluttering, extraordinarily majestic, of course, also to provoke a lot of complaints.

This Huanggang Treasure Ship is also something similar, but it is a different way to play. Song Huizong likes to play, every summer when the hottest, often take concubines, royal family, favored ministers into the dragon boat, along the river to play, along the way there are many officials to ask for peace, officers and soldiers escort, and even, there are people along the road to pull the fiber boat, in order to express their filial piety.
