Chapter 228 New Route Departure
Qu Mao saw that the supplies had been gathered in the sea boats beside the civilian wharf. Of course, he did not return to the lord's cabin of Yi Village, but lived in the small village of Mingang with Su Yan, Sunan, and Sylvia Ocean.
Sir Mrak went directly to stay in the naval barracks. After all, there are still 500 new naval soldiers waiting for him to train the queue and physical fitness in the naval barracks.
Currently, there are only 12 sea-going ships in the territory of Yi Village, two of which are specially allocated for naval training, and two other civilian docks that have long been docked at outlying islands and empty islands to facilitate transportation between outlying islands and empty islands.
This time, Qu Mao sent all eight sea-going ships to open up new sea routes, and he had the spirit of fighting to the death.
At that time, Yi Island basically only has two ships in the naval barracks, and one of the warships is in the naval port, but it is the most basic type of warship, mainly used to train naval soldiers.
Fortunately, the Ziguang Trail, an underground passage from Yi Island to Outlying Island, was discovered and opened in advance. Otherwise, after the new shipping route opens and the fleet sails, the traffic between Yi Island and Outlying Island will be very inconvenient.
After withdrawing 1,000 gold coins from Yicun’s territorial account and handing them over to Sunan, there were only 4,012 gold coins left in Yicun’s territorial account again, which made Qu Mao feel a little anxious again, sleeping tossed and turned in the four-story brick house in Mingang Village no.
Sunan slept in the small village of Mingang until midnight, and suddenly remembered that Maffei Trani, the person who specially greeted Qu Mao, was not in the small village of Mingang, so he got up immediately, found a team of third-level princess guards, and lit torches overnight Back to Yi Village, Maffei Tranny was forcibly taken to Mingang Village.
Fortunately, because of anxiety, Qu Mao didn't sleep very deeply, and got up before four o'clock. It happened to be this time when Sunan brought Maffei Trani back to Mingang Village.
Qu Mao asked: "Maffei, why don't you want to go to sea?"
Maffei Trani said: "My lord, there are still many books in the library that have not been finished.
When the subordinates read books, they feel as if the world is in the books. It seems that many phenomena and reasons that were not clear before have suddenly become clear, so the subordinates are very obsessed with reading. "
Qu Mao sighed, and said, "Ma Fei, you have to read thousands of books and travel thousands of miles.
The total collection of books in the Yi Village Library is less than a thousand volumes, and there is always a day to read them all, but you don’t have many opportunities to travel thousands of miles.
How about this, I will give you ten gold coins, and allow you to purchase books freely to replenish the book collection of our Yi Village Territory Library, how about it? "
Maffei Trani's expression changed, and he immediately bowed his hands and saluted: "In this case, I will thank you sir."
While handing ten gold coins to Maffei Trani, Qu Mao said, "Maffei, you not only need to read books, but also use your eyes to see the outside world. If you learn, you will be perilous, think about it more."
Maffei Trani saluted again and said, "Yes, thank you for your reminder."
Since he became the librarian of Yi Village, Maffei Trani has basically been tirelessly swimming in the sea of books every day, and sometimes he even has no time to eat because of reading.
Not long after Qu Mao had communicated with Maffei Trani, it was just four o'clock in the morning. The people preparing to sail, including Sylvia Ocean, had already woken up and started preparing for breakfast in Mingang Village.
At about five o'clock, the Yidao civilian dock was crowded with people, and members of the expedition team boarded the ship one after another.
Qu Mao thought for a while and said, "No way! I still have to go in person!"
Just as Qu Mao was about to board the ship, Su Yan grabbed Qu Mao and said, "My lord, the enemy is about to invade. At this time, no matter what, you cannot be allowed to leave the territory."
You can wait for our return in the territory with peace of mind.
The subordinates have communicated with you last time, so I won’t reason with you this time, you can’t go! "
Qu Mao argued a few words with reason, but immediately met the joint opposition of Su Yan, Sunan, Maffei Trani, and even Sylvia Ocean, who had never been loyal and maintained a high-cold attitude. Started to condemn Qu Maolai.
In desperation, Qu Mao really couldn't convince everyone, so he could only be hugged by Su Yan, and said on the trestle of the civil dock: "Okay, if you don't go, don't go.
Su Nan served as the commander-in-chief of this voyage, and Sylvia, as a hero, guarded the entire fleet, including after going to the aborigine city of the new route target, Sylvia also tried to stay on the ship and not go ashore.
Maffei Trani serves as Sunan's assistant and participates in material sales negotiations, material procurement negotiations, etc. In all business activities in the new city of Sunan, Maffei Trani must participate and assist Sunan as an assistant Finish. "
Maffei Trani said: "Yes, my lord! This subordinate obeys!
By the way, Sir Silvia, how many days will the ship sail at sea? "
Sylvia Ocean said indifferently: "About three days and two nights, if you want to stop the ship in the deep sea area on the way to rest, then it will take four days and three nights."
Maffei Trani said with a look of annoyance: "It's a pity, I only brought three books, which is only enough for one-way reading, and there are no books to read on the way back!"
Qu Mao smiled and said, "Maffei, did you forget that I gave you gold coins to buy books? On the way back, you can just read the books you bought from the new city."
Maffei Trani's eyes lit up and he touched his head. He didn't think of this just now.
Qu Mao said again: "Su Nan, use the communication crystal to contact Su Yan every two hours until your communication crystal exceeds the contact range.
Even if you leave the contact range, you are not allowed to put the communication crystal aside, so be sure to carry it with you. "
"Yes, my lord! The subordinates understand." Sunan said.
Su Yan said: "Su Bo, take care all the way, I will always keep in touch with you."
Su Nan bowed his hands again to salute his princess.
Sylvia Ocean said impatiently: "Hurry up and board the ship, it's not about life and death, we'll be back soon.
Although I can’t guarantee 100% that all will return safely, the probability of our safe return is still over 95%.
Don't waste time, get on board. "
Maffei Trani turned his head and glanced at the trestle. His sister, Sophie Traney, did not come to see him off. Now Maffei Traney didn't know that his sister had a very high magical talent.
At 5:30 in the morning, the sea outside Yi Island was still pitch black, and the sun hadn't jumped out of the sea level yet.
Under the twilight of the stone lighthouse, the eight seagoing ships in the territory of Yi Village lifted anchor and unmoored one after another, set sail, and sailed towards the northeast.
Watching the sea boat leave, Qu Mao thought silently: "I hope that good news will come back soon, and the territory of Yi Village can no longer bear the blow."
