Chapter 368
Yang Yichuan returned to the capital, and the matter in Mozhou was a foregone conclusion. Gu Jinyu recruited many crew members. After more than a month and nearly two months of training, the ships were built and could be expanded into a large fleet.
This first time going out to sea is just a trial, and the main goal is to experiment. Wait until next year is the best time to sail. This time it is expected to be more than a month away and come back for more than a month, and you can still catch up with the Chinese New Year.
The crew members he recruited were ready to go, and Yang Tianhuai also came over to take a look and was about to send these people out to sea.
Gu Jinyu was also very excited. When he heard that the court was about to stop going out to sea and explore this matter, Gu Jinyu thought it would be difficult for him to have another chance to go out to sea in his life. But unexpectedly, there would be a turnaround soon. Prince Yang Tianhuai, who wanted to pay money to continue this career.
"Prince."
In the early morning, Yang Tianhuai led one of the few people to see off this large fleet.
"Well, Xiao Gu, are you all ready?"
"When you go back to the prince, you are all ready to go out to sea at any time."
Yang Tianhuai said with relief, "That's good. This sea is not as good as land. I have heard that it is very dangerous. So, you should pay attention to safety. As for the time, it has been set. It will only take more than a month. It will be about three months after going out. It will be the real voyage until next year."
"Yes, prince, we will definitely overcome our suffering and bring good news to the court."
"That's good, go, go early and come back soon."
Gu Jinyu also knew it was time to set off, so he turned around and came to his crew. After nearly two months of training, these crew members were already very qualified crew members. Not only that, his personal physical fitness, he also learned to operate artillery and muskets, and he also had some self-protection methods.
Gu Jinyu looked at this scene and remembered that his father was the same before. Facing the crew, there was a vast ocean in front of him.
"All crew members, board the ship and go to sea."
Gu Jinyu's words seemed to have used all his strength to make everyone hear this sentence, especially the last word "going to the sea", which was even more hoarse.
“Go to the sea.”
All the crew members also roared, and then they prepared to go out to sea with great confidence. The crew members of these several large ships were already on board and ready to go out to sea.
Standing at the bow of the boat, Gu Jinyu was even more extraordinary. Standing at the bow of the boat, shouting, "Showing!"
Then the crew shouted together, with a huge momentum, which made the other ships hear the sound. Not only that, but the people on the beach also heard this sentence.
“Go to the sea!”
As the second sentence echoed across the sea, the ship that led the lead, the ship where Gu Jinyu was, began to move slowly and began to prepare to go to sea. The other ships naturally started, and the next thing they were going to go to sea.
Yang Tianhuai also waited by the dock for a while and watched the ship slowly go out to sea. The fleet is not only vast but also quite majestic. Especially the flag representing the Great Power Dynasty was fluttering at the bow of the ship, which made Yang Tianhuai watch for a long time.
"The sea, overseas, I heard from Yichuan that there are many new things overseas, endless wealth, and hidden dangers. If there are really other continents and other countries overseas, is it a good or a bad thing for the Great Virgin Dynasty?"
Yang Tianhuai left the wharf and returned to the mansion. The next step was to write a letter to return to the capital. After all, he had to go to sea. I would like to notify Yang Yichuan first and see what Yang Yichuan thought.
Gu Jinyu also looked back at the pier, watching the coast gradually drift away, so he calmed down and set his eyes ahead, on the boundless sea in front.
"captain."
Gu Jinyu also took out his telescope and looked in all directions, but he had no gains.
"Let's go south. How long has it been going to sea? Our goal is more than a month? Let's watch it first, and then change a group of people to show off."
"Yes, Captain."
There are still many things sent by Yang Yichuan on the ship. Muskets and cannons were sent by Yang Yichuan. In addition to this weapon, there are also many functional equipment. What clocks, telescopes, and compass are all better equipment for navigation.
Gu Jinyu returned to the cabin. The sailing was not for a while, and there was still a long time to sail.
Yang Yichuan is still busy in the capital. On the one hand, it is the reconstruction and reform of the factory. This is the top priority and cannot be relaxed. As for the professors, there are courses to teach every day, but Yang Yichuan also has the skill of being lazy, so he doesn't spend much time. Another big thing is to buy a new house for decoration and then renovate a school.
More than ten days later, Yang Yichuan received a letter from Yang Tianhuai.
The factories in Mozhou have already started production. Now the market is very vacant, and the daily output is sold out soon. Nanzhou, Yangzhou, and Haizhou are also rich places, and there is still a lot of demand for these goods.
Another thing is that the HNA has already begun. Although it is only a trial now, it is of great significance. After all, the previous voyages were all heading east, and there were still many explorations in the east part. But I haven’t been able to explore anything yet. As for the south side, there is basically no exploration, just some fishing boats on the beach. If you go further, no one knows what the situation is.
"Huh, have you finally started the navigation plan? Such a ship can still sail far even if it is only more than a month, right? You should be able to explore some things, right? As for the east side, why can't you explore it? It shouldn't be."
Yang Yichuan also began to think for a moment, and the exploration to the east was mainly based on Wangzhou Island. It took nearly a year to go back and forth from Wangzhou Island, but it was not discovered any large land, which made Yang Yichuan very puzzled. However, it was also possible that the direction was wrong, so this time I could get something to the south.
Yang Yichuan comforted himself so much, but Yang Yichuan didn't know what the situation overseas was. After all, this was a world that Yang Yichuan didn't understand at all. Even Yang Yichuan didn't know much about these lands of the Great Wei Dynasty, let alone this vast overseas, which no one has explored.
"Overseas, what kind of world is this world? I heard that the Sand tribe goes west and there is still a large area of land after crossing the Death Desert. I heard that the northern prairie goes north is the territory of the Ice tribe, and there are some Ice tribes in Selangor. This world is really a magical world."
Yang Yichuan closed the book, which was a book about the geographical and sea areas of the Dawei Dynasty that Yang Yichuan was preparing to write. Of course, the content is still extremely scarce now, with only two parts: Jingcheng and Xihezhou. Moreover, the content of these two parts is relatively small and there is no sufficient information.
