565 Destination 1
On the high-speed sailing boat, Xu Ying was asleep, and the speed of the boat was reduced. Xu Shao and the boatmen were drinking on the deck. They have been driving day and night for four days, and it will be almost the same in two days. It's here, so everyone is still very happy.
Xu Shao looked for a topic and asked, "Brother Sun, is it easy to learn to sail a boat? I also plan to study hard when I go back."
Sun Xuzheng touched the wine bowl with him and said: "Don't look at us as being proficient. It's been like this after many years of practice. Ask Qilang, he has studied for more than a year, and now he still needs someone. Bring it with you, unless you spend it on the ship every day, and you can be proficient in keeping it for a year."
Qilang on the side said: "Big Brother Xu, Big Brother Sun is true. It won't take long to learn, but it takes a bit of effort to master the boat."
Xu Shao added: "Nowadays there are many piers outside Siam City, and there are more and more ships. The shipyard is stepping up shipbuilding. My brother is guarding the shipyard. He said that everyone is passing on, and the owner intends to expand overseas. On the site, I was thinking, I also have to learn how to sail a boat."
Sun Xun nodded and said: "If this is the case, there are probably not a few people who want to learn."
"That is, the boatman's monthly money is more than what we take, and I still have to prepare more money for the younger brother to marry the wife of the house. At that time, I will be at ease as a big brother."
Sun Xuzheng took another sip with Xu Shao and said, "It's not difficult. Isn't your brother also working as a guard? Isn't it easy to save some money?"
"Big Brother Sun, you don't know anything. Now in Siam, the big guys are looking for women from the Tang Dynasty. There are so many women. Naturally, this gift is also serious. For this matter, Chen Yu even wrote a letter to Wu. Brother, let Brother Wu get more women to Siam."
When Xu Shao finished talking with a smile, Sun Xunzheng also laughed. He also knew about this. There is really no way. Although some people marry local indigenous women, they are a minority after all. There are indeed not many women who have moved to Siam. It's all men, so this matter is naturally difficult to handle. Hong Wu can't do anything about this, he can't take people to Siam.
Qi Lang on the side asked, "Why can't you go to Yangzhou and other places to buy some women?"
Uncle Yu, who hadn’t spoken all the time, said, “Do you think Guan Shi didn’t do this? There are not many women, hundreds of them a year. The Patriarch had clearly stated that he did not want to stay away from Datang. Forced, so there are not enough people. Nowadays, there are more than this number of Tang people who settle down in Siam by themselves. This is not because Guan Hong moved from outside. It is said that there are nearly two thousand people who have moved to Siam this year. "
Now Siam City is really good for making money and raising a family. As long as you work hard, it’s really good. According to business people’s rumors, the number of people here will naturally increase gradually, let alone the nearest forest. Many people came here to live in Yap and Zhenla, even the Langyaxiu country in the southern peninsula and the Buddha's dead country farther away.
Xu Shao toasted another bowl of wine to everyone, and then he sighed: "Oh! How about marrying a daughter-in-law is so difficult? I don’t have a problem. I plan to marry a local woman, as long as I can spread incense to us. But my brother wanted to marry a woman from the Tang Dynasty and had to save more money."
Sun Xunzheng said again: "I took a letter to Liuqiu last time. It's much better there. But housekeeper Yao has sent a lot of people there in recent years. Uncle Yu, isn't your family going to Liuqiu? , Where can I get married?" New 81 Chinese website update the fastest mobile terminal: https:/
"Fortunately, my family is in Liuqiu. The kid in my family will be able to marry a daughter-in-law in two years. Now the marriage has been decided. The people in Liuqiu have not had the troubles you mentioned, so this is not in a hurry. Yes, I think a few people in charge will naturally handle these things slowly."
A few people were chatting like this, and the time passed quickly. It was about to dawn, and after dawn, they could speed up their journey.
In the morning, when Xu Ying was sitting on the deck and looking at the island not far away, she saw that there was a walled city on the island, and pointed and asked: "Uncle Yu, why is there a walled city on this island? "
"Oh, they are the pirates of this place. It is said that they have occupied this place for two years, and people who do not know where they come here are pirates."
"Ah! Why are we still so close to them?" When Xu Ying finished asking, she knew the answer.
"They can't catch up with our boat at all, and they won't be moved by this thought."
Nowadays, it’s really not peaceful here. Since Li You brought people from Wabang and several other tribes to this place, after the Siam City was built, the balance here has been disrupted. There are wars everywhere. Natural sea bandits. People like robbers will be crowded, and Tianzhu people have also gotten in here, naturally it's not much better.
Another day passed and Xu Ying finally arrived at her destination Siam City. At the pier, He Bin had already waited with someone after he got the news that the clippers had entered the port. Seeing that Xu Shao had come back with a Chinese woman, he knew that this was Xu Ying, although he had never seen Xu Ying. , But also knew her, this time Lin Bo took people to Chang'an, and they all knew about it.
He Bin stepped forward and said to Yingying: "Under He Bin, I have seen Lady Xu."
Seeing He Bin and seeing the gift, Xu Ying also bowed her body and said: "Brother He is well, Xu Ying is polite."
"It's easy to talk." After greeting Xu Ying, He Bin asked Xu Shao again: "Xu Dalang, why are you three, Lin Bai and others?"
Xu Shao arched his hands and said: "Brother He, Brother Lin, they didn't know that they were not with us. When Yingying was taken away, the three of us left first."
"Oh, don't stand anymore, I will send you to the City Lord's Mansion, and I will talk later if you have something."
City Lord's Mansion, Hong Ming and Liu Yue have now returned, and Hong Ming is in charge for the time being. When Hong Ming learned that Xu Ying is coming, he hurriedly took Liu Yue out of the City Lord's Mansion.
As soon as they arrived at the gate of the city lord's mansion, Xu Ying arrived here in a carriage. When she got out of the carriage, she finally saw her familiar people, Liu Yue and Hong Ming.
Although Xu Ying only stayed in Zhuhai Garden for half a year, she and the Liu family sisters were close, and the relationship was not bad.
Liu Yue smiled and took Xu Ying's hand and said, "Sister Yingying, it's great to see you."
Hong Ming also said: "Yingying, please, let's talk inside if you have something."
After entering the City Lord's Mansion, Hong Ming quickly asked someone to help arrange a small courtyard out. Liu Yue took Xu Ying to the living room. They hadn't seen each other for so many years, and naturally they had a lot of topics.
On the contrary, Hong Ming called He Bin and Xu Shao to the side for questioning. Naturally, it was Chen Yu and Lin Bai. He Bin would also like to know these words, but Xu Shao really didn’t know what the two teams were doing now. After asking three questions, he still said that Chen Yu was almost back soon.
Seeing nothing to ask, He Bin left, and Hong Ming also asked Xu Shao and others to go back. (End of this chapter)
