"This pink gemstone is so beautiful. It can be used as a pair of earrings to match my new lotus skirt. Lin Yue, do you think it looks good?"

Basically, there were only two girls of the same age, Cheng Xiaoxiao and Lin Yue, on this trip. They got along pretty well during these days on the boat, and even the previous jealousy had passed.

"This pink color really matches your skin tone. If you like it, choose more and create a set of jewelry."

Lin Yue was used to simplicity and neatness, and had little interest in these gems that could only be used for decoration, so she waited aside and waited for her companion's choice.

A quarter of an hour later, Lin Yue spent a hundred taels to buy a lot of gems. Everyone was reluctant to part with them, and in the end, it was her own man who dragged them away.

The man leading the way looked at the other person without blinking and spent a hundred taels of silver to buy a bunch of beautiful stones that could not be eaten or drunk. He was very shocked and sighed that it was indeed a caravan with strong financial resources, otherwise it would not be so good. ship.

After walking less than a few steps, everyone saw a pile of dark stones piled on the stall. There were very few people patronizing the stall and the surrounding area was also dirty.

"Brother, what is this?"

What's the use of such dark stones? They make the area dirty. Such things can easily affect the appearance of the city.

The guy who led the way puffed out his chest, it was finally his turn.

"This is another product called Longxing Caravan. They call this thing coal, which is a kind of fuel. Coal can be burned for a long time and the price is quite cheap. Most of us Zheng people now use it for cooking. , to keep warm in winter.”

"There is such a magical stone in this world!"

"I only know that wood can be burned, but now stone can also be burned. Are you lying to us?"

Anyway, it’s hard to imagine if you haven’t seen it. How does a stone burn?

"My family now uses coal. One penny per pound, or one pennie per month is enough, especially for stews. The firepower of coal can last for a long time. It is perfect for stewing chicken soup, pig's trotters soup, and fish soup.

However, the smell is a bit unpleasant, and it emits a faint unpleasant smell when burned. "

Seeing that the little brother said so confidently, everyone nodded doubtfully.

"It smells so good, with a light fragrance and a little sweetness, like freshly baked sweet-scented osmanthus cake!"

Lin Jiao squinted her eyes and sniffed in the air. When she talked about the sweet-scented osmanthus cake, she looked nostalgic and disappointed.

"This is corn, and it is also a kind of food brought by the fleet. Unfortunately, they only sell unripe corn cobs, and there are no seeds at all, so their business is the only one."

The money was well spent. He was said to be leading the way, and he always answered all questions. He also patiently accompanied them to wander and shop. Even though everyone acted like country bumpkins, their attitude was still polite and polite.

Of course Lin Yue knew that corn, as a high-yielding plant, would be one of people's staple foods even in the end of the world, but now that the other party had made it clear that he didn't want the seeds to escape, there would be no use knowing it.

Next, Lin Yue and others saw jadeite and jewelry. The woman couldn't put it down, but the price was very beautiful. As prisoners, they couldn't take out such ostentatious items.

Lin Yue actually thought that she could buy a few sets of exquisitely crafted and delicately carved jewelry to win over her partners.

After all, what Daqian uses most is gold, silver, and jade. Blank markets like pearls, jade, and gemstones can be quietly occupied.

However, the profits are quite large, so it is better to wait until you have your own sales channel before taking it out, so as not to lose too much money.

It wasn't until the sun set that Lin Yue and others settled down in the rented Sanjin courtyard. They bought the coal soup they had seen before and cooked several tables full of dishes to celebrate their escape from death several times and that they were still alive. Lin Yue, Lin Hongyuan, Ruan Xiayu, Li Dachui and others discussed that since they had been missing for more than ten days, they might as well go back later.

I bumped into Zheng State by mistake, and found out that it was a maritime hub. Many countries had found this country and formed stable transactions.

If we don’t seize this hard-won opportunity, how long will it be before we come back to this place again after leaving?

The two wounded people used this time to recuperate, while the rest tried their best to inquire about the situation of Zheng Guo and other countries' caravans. Since they want to occupy an island at sea and develop a family, they must have a basic understanding of countries that can sail.

This inquiry is extraordinary. There are basically caravans from more than 20 countries here. This is what we heard openly, but there are still many people developing secretly.

The country Yu, the country closest to Daqian, has three fleets. They are stationed in Zheng in rotation for a long time. They want to grab a share of any new goods. There must be official handiwork here.

The State of Yu kept the discovery of maritime trade a secret, and Daqian didn't get the slightest hint of it. Otherwise, the imperial navy would not have been in a state of disarray and would have fallen into infighting!

Moreover, it is impossible for the landing fleet to leave the county and go to other places in Zheng State, especially for outsiders who have just arrived in Zheng State.

During this period, Lin Yue visited the commercial street specially set up for overseas fleets, bought sweet potatoes, a crop with high yield, and sold them into vermicelli.

After some discussion, everyone planned to go back with Dayu's fleet, so that they could find their way home when they reached the nearby waters. As for the previous small island, which was only two days away, it could also be used as a temporary stronghold.

One wanted to hide it, and the other paid no attention to it. Lin Yue followed Dayu's fleet back to the Daqian border safely.

Because someone was leading the way, the trip back only took five days, and we finally returned to the familiar sea area of ​​​​Lingnan at noon on the sixth day.

"Why is there no one? Have they all gone back to eat?"

Looking at the deserted beach, everyone was curious.

As I approached Baixiang Village, I felt something strange. It seemed like there were always people hiding in the dark, peeking in, and some mechanisms and traps were turned on.

What is happening? You should be so vigilant?

Even if something unexpected happened to the people of Baixiang Village, are the people in Baixiang Village now not their relatives?

The more he thought about it, the more scared he became. Li Dachui was very worried about his daughter and started shouting.

"Fei'er, Fei'er, dad is back, Fei'er."

"Shut up."

Lin Yiguang stepped forward and covered Li Dachui's mouth, twisting his hands behind his back.

"The situation is unclear now. If you want to die, don't take everyone with you!"

Even though Lin Yiguang's tone was vicious, Li Dachui showed his love for his daughter and struggled hard, even with veins pulsing on his face, but he did not give up.

"Dad, you are back!"

"Grandpa, woo woo, you are finally back."

Cheng Hui brought several children of the same age from the village forward with undisguised excitement on their faces. Everyone also saw the deep tiredness and black circles on their faces. In Lin Yue's opinion, they were drug addicts who had been deeply poisoned.
