Chapter 62 Ready to go to Yancheng Port
At around four o'clock in the afternoon, Su Yan also rushed to the civilian pier. The sailors' grievances about being bullied by Qu Mao for about half a month dissipated with the appearance of the sea ship. This meeting saw the trainer come again, and immediately said that he would Have a bonfire.
Su Yan looked around for a while near the civilian wharf, measured the distance for a while, discussed with Sunan, and ran to about 60 meters away from the plank road of this civilian wharf, started construction of another civilian wharf again, and Immediately, more than 30 sailors around her were arranged to go into the construction.
Qu Mao did not express any objection, but he regretted that he did not build a second civilian wharf sooner.
Bringing Su Yan, Wang Ping, Sunan, and Qu Mao back to the small village of Mingang, he arranged for Zhao Pan and Zhang Da to prepare for the sailors' bonfire at night, while he led the three of them into his own residence.
At present, Mingang Village is building 23 first-order residential houses at the same time. Basically, except for 20 families of skilled workers, Qu Mao, Su Yan and Wang Ping each have one house. However, the construction of the first-order residential houses requires about 10 local residents. It's been about 5 days and it hasn't been covered yet.
After Qu Mao and Sunan went to Yancheng, Wang Ping and Su Yan must be in charge of a village alone, and Chafidel and Zhao Pan are estimated to be in charge of the construction of a first-order residential building near the east beach to accommodate families of skilled salt workers.
These two warriors who followed Qu Mao in the early days will be sent to lead the army to guard the people and sailors near the east beach. Su Yan will build a first-class residential building at the location selected by Su Yan to form a resettlement site for the families of skilled salt workers. Su Yan suggested that Qu Mao called that place Fishermen's Village, and settled thirty sailors, hoping that in the future, in addition to drying salt, the family members could also catch sea fish.
Of course, the purpose of not calling it Yancun is also to avoid duplication with Yancheng in the former Principality of Tassel.
Sitting down in the residence of the territory, Qu Mao said: "The civil dock has been built, and the sea-going ship has been released. Sunan has already told me about the performance of the sea-going ship, but according to what Sunan said, a sea-going ship is fully loaded with 200 Counting our sailors, sailors, and supplies to be purchased, I am worried that all six ships will pass, and it may not be possible to bring everyone back."
Sunan waved his hand and said, "My lord, what I told you before was only the theoretical passenger capacity, not the full-load passenger capacity. Under full load, such a large sea-going ship can carry 600 people and 10 tons of supplies. More than enough.
And this ship is so new and strong. "
Qu Mao shook his head and said: "After all, it is not good if something happens in the 300-kilometer sea area. Anyway, I always feel that even if we drive three sea-going ships, it will definitely not be enough. Let's go at least five sea-going ships..."
Su Yan interrupted: "My lord, let five sea ships go there.
For the purchased materials, you can purchase them according to the list we negotiated, and all of them should be purchased according to 3000 copies, including daily necessities pots, bowls, ladles, basins, beds, tables, chairs, etc., each with 3000 sets; production tools such as shovels, shovels, Iron rakes, iron plows, hatchets, machetes, kitchen knives, etc. are also purchased according to 3000 copies. The prices of these goods will follow the market, so when you get there, ask Suber to pull you a list and price list.
Although we will have blacksmiths and iron ingots in the future, and these tools can be produced by ourselves in the future, in order not to affect the efficiency of life and development in the early stage, subordinates feel that it is necessary to bring 3,000 copies each. "
Qu Mao nodded and said, "It's easy to say, Sunan's identity and the reason we landed..."
Sunan said eagerly: "My lord, the reason for landing in Yancheng Port is that we have formed a fleet of five ships. It can be said that the caravan of the Movor Empire came to Yancheng to purchase sea salt and slaves, and the quality of Yancheng is excellent. The living utensils and production tools will be sold back to the Mughal Empire at that time. The metals of the Mughal Empire are mainly used to cast weapons and then sell them. There are not many daily necessities and production tools.
As for the identity, the subordinate will find a sailor and ask him to change into a sailor's clothes, and the subordinate will change into his clothes, pretending to be your guard, my lord.
Please rest assured, my subordinate was quite famous in the army of the Duchy of Tassels in the past, but he has been retired as the princess's butler for 10 years, and his subordinate has not frequently shown himself in public, so he is more confident in hiding his identity. "
Qu Mao nodded and said: "Since this is the case, the reason for landing is also very good, so let's prepare in advance. Drive five ships, each with 10 sailors and 30 sailors.
Mingang Village will have a bonfire party tonight, and everyone will have a good meal.
Su Yan, how was your hunting harvest yesterday? "
Su Yan smiled wryly and said: "My lord, the beast carcasses brought back by the five hunting teams have all been decomposed, which is just enough for everyone in Yi Village to have a full day today.
All the citizens have a full meal today, and tomorrow there will be a shortage of food, and there will be no shortage of grains.
Although the corn has matured, the subordinates asked Jia Sixie and Franklin King to convert them all into seeds, but it was still not enough to fill up all the poor-quality arable land in Yi Village.
The subordinates also asked Jia Sixie to bring some experienced farmers to Mingang Village, and they have been farming in Mingang Village since then, and Jia Sixie also brought some corn seeds to Mingang Village.
Tomorrow, corn will also be planted on the poor-quality arable land in Mingang Village.
Master, when you go to Yancheng, remember to buy enough plant seeds and come back. "
Qu Mao nodded and remembered this matter, then turned to Wang Ping and said, "Wang Ping, after Sunan and I set sail for Yancheng Port, you will lead a part of the army back to Yi Village, and take care of the safety and security work for the construction of the small fishermen's village.
Guarding the small village of Mingang, it will be handed over to Su Yan, the internal affairs officer.
The day we set sail will be the day after tomorrow. Tomorrow we will organize an army of about 80 people to go to a valley to hunt and kill about ten elephants.
At that time, Wang Ping will bring some of the elephant meat back to the territory of Yi Village. The meat of ten elephants can at least maintain the food supply for all the residents of our three villages, Yi Village, Mingang Village and Fisherman Village for 3-5 days.
Short three days, as long as five days, Sunan and I will definitely return from Yancheng Port. "
Wang Ping was taken aback and said, "My lord, are there any elephants on the island? When I led the army to hunt, I never found any traces of elephants.
The strength of an elephant is not low, and it has rough skin and thick flesh, and its defense is super high. A single elephant is already extremely difficult to deal with, not to mention what the adults say, you have to deal with a group of elephants, and a group of elephants will be even more difficult to deal with.
Our army is made up of Tier 1 fighters and Tier 2 fighters, please think twice before you act, even if food is scarce, you can’t take risks rashly. "
Qu Mao patted Wang Ping's shoulder and said, "Don't worry, I'm sure, just prepare the army!"
