Bai Shan and Yin or they arrived on the third day, when the two children were already playing crazy at the beach.
The two took a small wooden shovel, a small wooden cart, and a small wooden horse. When they arrived at the beach, they occupied a piece of sand and sat on the sand to play all day long.
Zhou Man put on small hats for them and ignored them. She and Ming Da stood by the sea and looked at the sea in a daze.
The wharf is already finishing up. Compared with the wharf three years ago, the current wharf is about twice as large, and the number of ships that can berth is three times that of the Laizhou Wharf.
Looking at the endless sea, Zhou Man said with regret: "It's a pity that I can't go out to see the sea. It would be nice to have a chance to go to Baekje Silla to see it on a sea boat."
Mingda: "I think so too."
The two couldn't help but turned their heads to look at each other and laughed.
Zhou Man calculated in his heart and said: "When the medical department is on track, I will resign, and then I can go wherever I want."
"What about Bai Shan?"
Zhou Man: "If he is still an official, I will come back to see him often."
Mingda couldn't help laughing loudly, and then said: "I will walk with you when the time comes."
Zhou Man raised his eyebrows, "Is the princess of Dajin going to Silla Baekje?"
Mingda pursed his lips and said with a smile: "What's the matter, the princess can go, can't the princess go?"
"I am a princess who came later, but you, a princess, are born differently." Zhou Man has already pondered, "At that time, you can ask His Majesty to be an envoy, and we used to be free of travel expenses."
Mingda snorted, "You're saving too much money. Your income from your fiefdom and your job farm are not low, and you have income from paper mills. How can you still be so economical?"
Zhou Man said seriously: "This is not saving money, it is for safety. If you are an envoy, and you go to Baekje and Silla, they have to protect your safety. Isn't it better than concealing your identity in the past?"
"We went there to understand the folk customs, not to experience the hardships of the people. There is no need to conceal our identities for this."
Mingda: "Did you go to dig other people's flowers and plants?"
Zhou Man hugged her arm, "Nothing can be hidden from you."
The two of them were talking about the excitement, when there was the sound of horns from the pier, Zhou Man listened for a while and said, "There is a ship entering the port, do you want to go and see the excitement?"
"I don't know where the boat is from," Ming Da said, "I also want to bring something back to Elder Sister Changyu. She is already out of filial piety, and Prince Wei is looking for a job. Maybe he will leave Beijing soon."
Zhou Man immediately said, "Come on, let's go and have a look. If there are any good things, I'll buy some too. You can bring them to her when the time comes."
The two turned around and took the two children with them.
The two children were unwilling to leave the beach, kicking their little feet in the air, and shouted: "I won't go, I won't go, I want to build a city wall."
Zhou Man glanced down at their masterpiece, disgusted, "Who's city wall looks like this, crooked and so short, stop playing, let's look at the good things first, and then build when we come back."
"Don't, don't," Bai Jingxing sank down hard, trying hard to step on the beach with his little feet, "Let's play by ourselves, mother, you can play with your own, we don't need you to bring it."
Bai Ruoyu didn't want to leave either, struggling in the hands of the maids, she seemed to open her mouth and cry if they didn't agree.
Ming Da said: "Forget it, let them stay here, and leave a few more servants for them."
Longchi Wharf was considered safe, so Zhou Man agreed after a little thought, and told Bai Jingxing, "You can only play on the beach, you can't go to the sea, you know?"
"Know."
The two children, Bai Jingxing and Bai Ruoyu, don't like sea water now, because they have already chased the waves, and they don't think it's much fun, digging sand is the most fun.
As soon as the two children were put down, they immediately ran back to their own land, picked up the small wooden shovel and continued to do the wall-building game conscientiously.
Mingda turned to look at the grand lady, "Take care of them."
"yes."
Mingda and Zhouman went to the pier.
It was bustling there, and many short-term workers were squatting on the side of the pier waiting to be selected, and some had already been selected to carry goods.
There are many business travelers in different clothes waiting ahead.
These people did not have the capital to board the ship, but although they did not have the capital to go on board, they could still pick up some relatively cheap goods at the pier, and sell them to the inland and north, and they could make a lot of money.
As soon as Zhou Man and Ming Da came over, they didn't need the guards to step forward to separate the crowd, and directly moved out of the way with winking eyes.
There is also the enthusiasm of Chang Hun Wharf to greet Zhou Man, "Master Zhou, are you here to view the scenery or to see the goods?"
Zhou Man: "There are many other good places to watch the scenery. Why did I come here?"
She peeped forward and asked, "Where did this ship come from?"
Soon, a few laborers in short coats squeezed out in front, and they shouted: "Don't wait, this is from Laizhou Wharf, come here to load some goods and leave, there are few good things here."
As soon as everyone heard that they were from Laizhou, they immediately dispersed and waited in another place, "If you count the time, the boat to Baekje should come back, right?"
"It should be coming back soon, and I don't know what good things I can bring back."
Zhou Man and Ming Da didn't leave, they stared at Tang He who came out of the pier with wide eyes, "Brother Tang?"
Tang He didn't expect to see them as soon as he got off the boat, and immediately stepped forward happily, "Are you here to pick me up?"
Mingda's smiling face froze, and Zhou Man nodded, "Brother Tang, why did you go by sea instead of land?"
Tang He: "...you don't even know the sea route I took, so why come here to pick me up?"
"Oh, isn't this a coincidence?" Zhou Man turned sideways and said enthusiastically, "Brother Tang, please—"
Tang He laughed angrily at her, and couldn't help raising the fan in his hand, but thinking that Zhou Man was no longer a little girl, he didn't take the fan anymore, he turned his hands away, shook his head and walked along.
"Where's Bai Shan?"
"They haven't arrived yet." As soon as Zhou Man finished speaking, a guard squeezed through the crowd and came in to report: "Lady, the Lord and the others have arrived and are waiting in the other courtyard."
Zhou Man glanced behind Tang He, saw that his luggage was light and only brought three people with him, so he asked: "Brother Tang, do you want to take a stroll around Longchi Wharf first, or go to another courtyard to rest first? "
Tang He thought for a while and said, "Let the guards take the luggage to the other courtyard. Let's walk around."
Tang He visited Longchi Wharf in June, and it is not much different from before now, except that the wharf has basically been built, many things have been cleaned up, and it looks cleaner and tidy than last time.
Since it was a casual walk, Zhou Man took him to the restaurant, and it was almost time for dinner now.
