Chapter 453: Going to the Sea 2

Chapter 453: Going to the Sea 2

Since our direction is opposite, King Cheng did not meet us, but after walking far away, Bihan next to him suddenly smiled and said, "Can you go back? Are there any distinguished guests waiting for you in the inn now?"

I was stunned and said, "Do you say that the emperor and the others have arrived?"

She nodded and said, "Yes, there is also the third prince, that is, the third prince now. Should you continue to walk? Or go back!"

I turned my head and looked at Jing'er and said, "What do you mean?"

Jing'er smiled slightly and said, "Let's go back. After all, this person has come to the door and is also a distinguished guest. It's not good to ask him to wait for a long time! Moreover, the lady hasn't seen her brother for many years."

I turned my head to look at Zhou Ma, and smiled and said, "Then let's go back, but I hope they know us?"

Everyone smiled together, and they suddenly became younger. As long as those who knew looked at each other, they opened their eyes wide. They didn't believe in everything they saw in front of them.

After obtaining everyone's consent, we walked back. Niujia Village is now quite lively, and we received news that the big ship was about to start voyage. This was the first time for Dazhou, so many people rushed here just to see the charm of the ship. Now when we were walking on the street, the most attractive thing was Jing'er and others. Moreover, five such beauties appeared at once, and the eyes of those around us glared out, and the rate of turning back was naturally 100%.

Of course, there are flies in this world, and there are naturally a group of people behind us, hanging us from afar.

However, we rarely pay attention to these people, and we didn't have the spirit, so we hurried to the inn.

Before we arrived at the inn, we saw this group of soldiers gathered at the entrance. All of the soldiers' armor were produced by the Chamber of Commerce. In order to maintain the balance of the strength of the two countries, there is only one unit equipped with this armor, that is, the Imperial Guard. It can be seen that the visitor is indeed King Cheng and the Third Prince.

Since I haven't appeared in Cheng for many years, they didn't know me. When they saw us and the inn walk to the inn, someone immediately stopped us and shouted, "Who dares to break in!"

"Bold! They are the prince consort and the eighth princess!"

A sharp voice came, and I looked up and said that the person who spoke was Eunuch Qi standing at the door. Since King Jing abdicated, Eunuch Qi has served King Cheng. This time he naturally followed King Cheng to Niujia Village. King Cheng and others were waiting in the inn. He saw that his master was anxious and was afraid that these imperial guards would not recognize people, so he waited at the door.

"The prince consort? The eighth princess?"

The soldiers of the Imperial Guard were stunned. Since they often went to and from the palace, they also knew about some of the things about the palace. Although the emperor now has princesses, they are not yet old to get married, how could he have a princess? If the emperor's younger sister is almost thirty, how could he have a young princess there? Moreover, in the court, the princess who is talked about now has an eighth princess. And I also heard that the eighth princess married Deng Long, the most popular one in the country at that time. At the same time, there were rumors that Deng Long had a lot of trouble in marrying the eighth princess, not marrying, but robbing.

Of course, there were many smart soldiers in the Imperial Guards, and they immediately paid homage, but they were stunned at first sight. The five girls in front of them all looked like princesses. Who is the Eighth Princess? And the Eighth Princess is so young?

"Don't avoid it!"

Eunuch Qi said in a slight angrily, then walked towards us, and only rituals were given; "I see the princess, and the eighth princess!"

I smiled slightly and said, "Eunuch Qi, are you safe?"

Eunuch Qi smiled and said, "What else can we servants do? The princess, princesses, and several ladies have become younger and younger. People in this world say that the princess is descending to earth, but it is still true."

Zhou Ma smiled gently and said, "Eunuch Qi, are you really good at joking? By the way, where are the eldest brother and third brother?"

"The emperor and the prince are waiting for you inside! Please ask the prince consort, princess, and several wives to follow me in!"

After saying that, he turned slightly and bent down to walk inside.

And we followed behind. After we left, the Imperial Guard behind looked at me and looked at you, and his eyes were full of surprise: Is this man the prince consort and the eighth princess just now? Why are he so young?

And they couldn't help but think of the legend circulating among the people a year ago. Their faces changed slightly and they looked at our background coldly. They really didn't expect that the young man who looked younger than them was the legendary figure. They couldn't help but feel awe-inspiring, and their waists were straightened, because most of these imperial guards were promoted by ordinary troops, while most of the ordinary troops were ordinary people. In the eyes of ordinary people, that person was a myth!

As soon as he walked to the entrance, Eunuch Qi did not go in, but stood at the door, bent down and said respectfully to it; "Report to the Emperor, the Third Prince, the Prince Consort and the Eighth Princess, and the others have arrived!"

As soon as these words were said, Manager Niu was so scared that his legs were trembling. He just knew that this person must be a big official, but he really didn't see him. He was the current emperor. So he knelt down quickly and kowtowed tremblingly: "Xiaomin greets the emperor. Xiaomin ignores Mount Tai and neglects the emperor. Please forgive him!"

King Cheng smiled slightly and said, "Get up!"

Then he said to the third prince next to him: "I'm finally back!"

The third prince nodded and said, "I haven't seen each other for many years, and I don't know how they are!"

After saying that, he turned his head and looked at the door. It didn't matter when he saw it. He opened his mouth wide and couldn't close it anymore. He stared blankly at us who appeared at the door.

After I walked up, I bent down and said, "Greetings to Brother, Third Brother!"

And Zhou and the others were blessed.

At this time, the third prince reacted and said in disbelief: "You are Deng Long? You are the eighth sister? Oh my god, you... why are you still so young?"

After saying that, he turned his head to look at Cheng Wang, and saw that he also looked at us in amazement. After hearing the third prince's words, he realized, "Everyone said that you Deng Long is the star in the sky. I am so trustworthy, and only the star in the sky. After so many years, I am still so young. Not like your third brother and I, you are almost turning into an old man!"

I smiled slightly and said, "Brother is joking!"

King Cheng nodded and said, "Well, okay! I am very happy to see you today. I have done what you asked me to do, and it depends on you now!"

I nodded and said, "I came here today to fulfill my promise. I actually promised you. I will definitely do it. Similarly, this is my last task!"

"After this matter is over, I will not disturb you. You can live your fairy life with peace of mind!"

King Cheng took over my topic and said, "I have no choice for this time. The letter you gave me mentioned the importance of exchanges and trade with foreign countries, but we have suffered from no ships to sea, and trade navigation charts, and there is no compass. For us, we cannot move forward in this vast sea. But now it is different. In two years, I have used you to build an ocean fleet. I believe that in no time, our Great Zhou will become the overlord of the sea and the overlord of trade!"

Cheng Wang's words involve many words that are only used in modern society, and the reason is that the information I gave him involves, such as Ocean.

“Marine trade is very important!”

I said with certainty, "Through trade, we can communicate with other countries, learn their advanced culture and technology, and at the same time pass on our culture. At the same time, maritime trade is an industry with relatively high profits. If the silk here travels across the ocean and goes to other countries, the price may be ten times or hundreds of times that of now. So, this is one of the reasons why I asked you to develop foreign trade at the beginning."

When I wrote to him, I didn't know that foreign envoys came to Dazhou, but asked him to open the port. The reason for foreign trade was that I didn't want Dazhou to become the second Qing Dynasty, closed the country, and regarded himself as a country above the Celestial Kingdom. In the end, when someone opened the country with a strong ship and a powerful cannon, I realized it was too late. I would rather use Dazhou to use his own strong ship and a powerful cannon to open the doors of other countries, even if it was a shameless invader.

After a pause, I continued, "There is another point I want to emphasize. This time I am just an envoy with the ship, not the commander of the entire fleet. I went to sea just to prevent it. In the past two years, I believe that the court has already mastered the things I gave you. This time, as long as they can succeed this time, I have to congratulate the emperor. From then on, the prestige of our Great Zhou will spread throughout the world!"

Among the information I gave him, it not only includes the construction information of the sea ship, the drawings and the manufacturing methods of some accessories, but also some other information, such as sailor training methods and gunner training methods. The most important of them are the training of the captain and the navigator and the relevant knowledge they need to master. This ship is large and someone has to direct the navigation. Otherwise, it will be just a decoration.

When I heard that when I talked, King Cheng suddenly showed an excitement on his face and said happily: "To be honest, I really don't know how to thank you. The things you gave us are so important. With these, we can promote the prestige of my Great Zhou to the whole world as you said!"

The important thing he said was the latest version of the world navigation map I gave him, which was made by Bihan.
