Hundreds of years ago, it was a very profitable investment. But now, it's good to be able to operate with capital protection. It can only be used as a place for those families to go to sea for vacation and recuperate.

For no other reason, Dachu has such a vast territory. All kinds of materials are too abundant.

The original overseas rare spices can now be enjoyed daily by ordinary people in Dachu. There is even a further downward trend.

In this way, these plantations are even less profitable!

In another world, the Tang Dynasty, there used to be a saying that rice was only worth three or four dollars. And now in Dachu, it is the vast desert north, where only cattle and sheep are produced. In those places, a bucket of rice is only three or four dollars.

Thinking of this, a wry smile appeared on Liu Yi's lips.

From the perspective of the smallholder economy, this is naturally a good thing. But Liu Yi naturally knew that this was the beginning of a large-scale economic crisis.

The Great Chu court has already seen through this qiē. In recent years, we have made every effort to develop the military industry. From time to time, he fought two battles with the enemy on the other side.

A large-scale war is brewing, and a large amount of materials will be consumed in the war. Work something out.

This is a famous saying from Taizong Fan Yi that internal problems can be solved in external expansion.

All contradictions are contradictions of uneven distribution, not uneven allocation, just because there are too few of them.

In this case, what the rulers have done is to make the quantity bigger!

In Japan, large-scale construction is also underway. The telegraph network connecting the entire territory of the empire was almost all about to be built.

And railways, roads, and so on. They are also in full swing of construction.

In particular, the Black Sea Protectorate, which traverses thousands of miles from the far north of the empire. All the way to the far west, the land of heaven and the capital of the palace, the total length of the railway is almost more than 10,000 miles. It will open to traffic this year.

At that time, the influence and control of the imperial court over the feudal towns outside the Saiwai were even stronger.

And this qiē is just a microcosm of the times.

Although I went to sea, I didn't encounter much trouble except for seasickness along the way.

Basically, follow the route. Along the way, every few days, you can meet the ports of the overseas feudal towns of Dachu.

From time to time, you can come across passenger ships. Merchant vessel. Even the battleships of Da Chu.

Originally, at this time, everyone's spirit was very relaxed. Except for some unlucky ghosts who went to sea for the first time, vomiting in the dark.

Naturally, Liu Yi would not have any problems, but after the fifth day of going to sea, he sensed the danger.

Especially on this day, after just replenishing supplies in Shunfeng Harbor and setting off again.

"What's wrong," Wang Ran seemed to be the first to notice that Liu Yi was a little uneasy. Been looking around on the deck.

Leo Yi holds a monocular clairvoyant. Constantly observing the situation at sea.

At this moment, he handed the clairvoyant mirror to Wang Ran and asked him to see it for himself.

In the clairvoyant mirror, several black dots appeared, which were too far away to see clearly.

"It seems to be a ship...... Wang Ran said.

"These ships. Followed us for a long time. Lewis said.

"You mean?" Wang Ran gasped with a hiss: "Could it be that these are pirates......"

In the vast sea, there will never be a shortage of pirates. But you can encounter it just out of the tailwind, which is too evil, right?

Liu Yi shook his head: "It's hard to say." Let's take a look. Inform the other two boats!"

Soon, with the flag. The message was informed to the other two ships.

Although Xu Yi is going to sea for the first time, the sailors on these ships. Even the captain of the ship is an old experience of sailing on the seas as an adult.

Faced with this situation, the only thing to do is to speed it up.

The sea is extremely large, and there are no coordinates fortunately. If two boats were miles apart, it would be easy to pass by in sight.

The ships behind, whether there is evil or not. But as long as they are out of sight, it is easy to get rid of them.

Sure enough, with the acceleration of the fleet. Soon the black shadow in the distance was completely thrown out of sight.

A faint sense of danger finally disappeared in Liu Yi's heart.

It's not surprising that another world, all the way up to the era of World War II, when radar was just getting started. If two fleets in the middle of the sea want to meet each other, the only thing to rely on is luck.

Not to mention now!

However, Lewy overlooked one point. This world is different from the other.

This world has a Tao and a law!

Soon, Liu Yi felt a sharp edge on his back, and seemed to have a sharp gaze, looking at him.

In mid-air, a black dot swirled and danced. I don't know what kind of seabird it is. But that feeling of being watched comes from it.

"Look for death!" Liu Yi snorted coldly: "Find a way to shoot this bird down." ”

With the flag, three ships approached at a rapid pace. Then, as Wang Ran cast the spell, a burst of mist emerged. Wrapped all three boats in their entirety.

The bird couldn't really see it, and sure enough, it lowered its altitude and hovered above the fog to observe.

Seeing this scene, no one's face was good-looking. Even fools know that they have been embellished.

Liu Yi shook the big bow in his hand and instantly locked the seabird.

As if sensing danger, the seabird immediately flapped its wings. However, at this moment, the weapons equipped on the steamship opened fire at once.

The weapons equipped in naval battles are extremely powerful. There are even steam-powered crossbow bolts, and projectiles.

This kind of steamship, in particular, is extremely powerful. For a moment, I heard a monster-like roar.

It was a loud sound of steam being released, a puff of white gas. Countless projectiles shot into the air, as if forming a large net in the air.

The seabird didn't even have time to cry, and in mid-air, it exploded into a mass of meat sauce.

Liu Yi withdrew the big bow in his hand, although it was from Qin Shiyue's memory. I know how powerful these steamships are, but after all, I don't empathize.

Seeing it with his own eyes now still makes Liu Yi feel something.

"It is said that the steam boiler of Da Chu. It doesn't seem to be coal or oil that burns. Liu Yi thought to himself, this is about the alternative technology tree of this world, right?

Eliminated the thorn in the eye. The fog lifted. The flotilla accelerated again.

Although the square number and the Yi number are just ordinary sailboats. And not steamboats. However, the ship types are quite advanced. It's not too slow.

According to the other world, it has a speed of ten or twenty knots. It's not as good as a clipper, but it's not bad.

This time, since he was targeted. The fleet changed course.

The sea is vast, since it is being targeted. It must be in the port, and if anyone is thinking about it, it must be in the downwind port.

This time they changed course and passed several seaports without entering. Crossing the waterway away from home, the harbor islands are starting to become scarce.

Natural. The fleet can also be regarded as a complete entry into the ocean. It can be said that it is completely in the sea.

After so many days of sailing, most people have adapted to the wind and waves at sea. Those who choose to go to sea are not masters, but all of them are strong and strong. The adaptability is good.

After sailing for dozens of days, he arrived at COSCO Port. It is one of the most important supply ports in the ocean.

It is also one of the most important ports in Great Chu, although it is a feudal domain of a foreign domain, but the fleet of the imperial court is also stationed here.

After so many days of sailing, everyone was exhausted. When I came to COSCO Port, in addition to leaving the necessary manpower. The rest of the people all went down to the shore and reveled at will.

Liu Yi originally planned to stay on the ship, but was invited by Xu Yi and Li Fang.

"This place is the safest, this is where the Great Chu fleet is stationed, who dares to mess around here? It's been so hard along the way, and I want to go out and relax the most!"

Leo Yi thinks about it, but it is also the same truth. He nodded his head and agreed.

This place is already a typical tropical sea. Excellent view of the beach. It's just a port, but it's a mess. Crowded with all kinds of messy buildings.

Countless places that provide leisure and entertainment for those who go to sea, and business is very prosperous.

Xu Yi these people. Naturally, I don't look down on those low-level places where people in the lower riba are entertained.

Familiar with the way to take Liu Yi to walk away, this time in the evening, the sea water is a glass-like light blue transparent color.

Coconut palms are planted all over the shore, and at night, the sea breeze is pleasant.

Just on the seaside, an authentic Da Chu shaped green building was built, and one side was erected.

"That's fine. Isn't it the first time you've gone to sea?" asked Liu Yi curiously.

"Although it is the first time we have come, Captain Eun is a veteran!" Xu Yi laughed.

It seems that when you relax all of a sudden, it is very easy to let people wander.

That Captain Eun was the captain of a steamship. Counting it, it is still subordinate to the Great Chu Water Division.

Just like the steamship, the sailors and others on the ship were all lent by the imperial court to these prisoners of the country.

"I've been here a few times before and it's too expensive. When I first served, I didn't have that much money in my pocket......"

Captain En smiled faintly, and his words made everyone laugh.

This time when going to sea, all the captains and sailors on the ship were all responsible for Xu Yili.

And at the very least, it's more than ten times as much as when they served in the army.

Captain Enn is about forty years old, almost at the age of taking a back seat. But it's time to be experienced.

This should be about his last time going to sea, and then not retiring, accepting some private boat company to do some offshore sailing. It was as an instructor that he entered the sea school.

"You can rest assured knowing that this money is your pension. We will keep it for you, this time, I invited Ah Fang and I!"

Xu Yi's words made everyone around him show a hint of joy.

Those who can be in this small circle are the top of the fleet. There were less than ten people in total.

And this fleet, the three ships combined, were more than 270 people.

Captain En smiled: "Then you're welcome, the cost of Sihailou here is really not low!"

Li Fang waved his hand: "Wait for the next person to find two powderheads, don't save us money!"

No matter how high the cost is, you can't be stingy at this time. Spend all the way to here, and there is still most of the itinerary behind. It's time to be uplifting.

Liu Yi smiled faintly and looked at the brilliant lights of the port from afar.

Think about the thousands of miles you have traveled along the way. All of them are the regions of Dachu.

And this entire huge empire of Great Chu has never appeared in another world, this kind of incredibly powerful empire. It is shaped by one's own hands.

A faint sense of pride, and loss. For no reason, it came to my heart.

The vicissitudes of life seem to change for a moment. And the foundation that he has shaped with his own hands is still there, and it is still growing.

Born but not had, for the sake of not ashamed, success and Fudwelling;

I went all the way to Sihailou and walked head-on. It's just a piece of fat powder that's sweet and greasy. Countless women of Yingying Yanyan came out and welcomed these rich seafarers.

In the blessed land of Dachu, this Sihai Building is naturally not first-rate. Let those dignitaries and nobles, and the sassy ink writers see it, and feel that their taste is still a little vulgar.

However, put on this continuous voyage for so long. Thousands of miles away from Da Chu, it is already very rare to have such an authentic Da Chu flavor.

For these people who have been holding back for so long, that kind of poetry and songs, I want to refuse to give up. Naturally, it's all.

It's better to come to be cooler!

When I went upstairs, I first called the banquet table. There was a beautiful woman sitting next to him.

"Ladies and gentlemen, they have come just in time. In the past few days, we have come to Sihailou with a batch of fresh goods. It's all blonde and blue-eyed enchantresses from the other side......"

Before he finished speaking, everyone was immediately very interested, and they shouted: "Bring people up, bring people up quickly......"

Captain En smiled, "Middle-earth also has some enchantresses. But in addition to the top goods transported to the mansions of those big people, or the top green buildings like the eighth building in Beijing. Generally good goods are overseas.

The enchantresses seen elsewhere in Middle-earth are just third-rate goods!"

"Not really, when Ah Fang and I left Beijing. I've been to the Proud Building, where a group of women from the far north are coming. Their skin is as white as snow, but their eyes are as blue as the sea outside......"

"The orchids of heaven are not bad, and they will not be missing these enchantresses on the other side. When I was in Lingzhou, I saw a lot of orchids. Especially good at singing and dancing, the waist is even more slender, and the thighs are slender, which is wonderful. You don't know until you try it......"

A group of people giggled and talked about women. No more barriers.

In a short time, more than a dozen so-called enchantresses were sent up. All of them have slender and slender bodies, and most of them have blonde hair. Emerald eyes.

However, the most striking thing is these enchantresses with pointed ears. It's very different from ordinary people.

"Hey, how are these enchantresses different from what I see?" Xu Yiqi said.

"yes, yes. The enchantress we saw in the capital, although blonde and blue-eyed. But it's similar to the Celestial Orchid, why are these so weird. However, there seem to be other wonders as well......" (to be continued......
