Chapter 1556 Strength Brings New Opportunities ([-])
The reason why the family-run route is a family secret is because of these supply points.

The sea has no cover, and anyone's boat can go there, but where to get supplies when the ammunition and food are exhausted, and whether they are enemies or friends with the local aborigines are all secrets of each family.

The farmer traveled across the ocean from his home country to come here. He knew what kind of storms he had experienced and where he had stopped halfway, so he revealed all these precious information.

Of course, if you don't take his information for nothing, you will give him more gifts at that time.

In the end, the farmer signed a big order with Global Trading Company, two ships of white cotton yarn, two ships of white cotton cloth, and one ship of solid-colored cloth selected from the color cloth booklet. He sent someone to act as an agent and the owner of the ship The same person goes to pick up the goods, and this person is responsible for the follow-up matters when returning to the home country.

The first business of the new route came to Qi Ke, and she couldn't help laughing three times, and sent out the ocean-going No. [-] fleet, which happened to have a shipping schedule, and brought the agent owner to Liangshui Town to pick up the goods. Then officially set off, for the sake of safety at sea, there are gunboats accompanying them for protection.

Qi Ke began to worry about the lack of large boats in his hands, but the wood that can be used to build wooden boats is even more rare. Even if the Qianhe Realm desperately produces high-quality building materials, it takes time for the wood to dry naturally, no matter how urgent it is Come.

In order to have the strength to get a share of the pie in the shipping industry, Qi Ke had no choice but to use the brains of steamships.

But the steamship involves more industries, so it cannot be rescued urgently. It can only be listed as a follow-up plan. First, open a mine and build a smelter, slowly climb the technology tree of metal smelting and processing, and then build a steamship.

After pondering for two days, Qi Ke finally came up with an emergency solution. Taking advantage of the opportunity of the Ocean No. [-] fleet, he asked if there was any ship for sale after arriving at the destination port. It was too late to build the ship, so it should not be difficult to buy ready-made ones. Countries with developed shipping will have obsolete second-hand ships every year, buy them back and deal with them for a few years.

Zhaolin also agreed with this idea and prepared the newly stored gold.

The Ocean V fleet did not come north with an empty ship. It just happened to bring a batch of live cattle that had been stored on Mudao Island for several months. The farmer also specially sent a pair of lively and strong calves as a gift.

After seven or eight days, the Ocean V fleet set off.

In the past few days, Qi Ke's attention has long been on the fleet, and she is busy getting the previously evacuated slaves back to Sugar Island.

It is still a night job, and large-scale machinery is dispatched to reclaim the wasteland and dig deep into the ground. Fortunately, the sugarcane fields that were dug up at the beginning are now filled back as they are, and the seam is perfect.

However, construction is more difficult than destruction. It took Qi Ke two nights to fully restore the appearance of Sugar Island, plus the work done by his assistants during the day, it took three days and two nights to finish everything, including the defense formation.

The former pirates once again carried out a large space transfer in the middle of the night. When they saw the sugar island restored to its original state, even the huts were exactly the same as before, they shouted for miracles again. Worship.

Qi Ke didn’t agree to erecting a statue, but Zhaolin came up with an idea, erecting a flagpole, teaching the ex-pirates to know which country their current master belongs to, and worshiping at the flag if they wanted to, it’s useless to worship Sea God, and Sea God doesn’t Take care of their food and work.

The former pirates just wanted a spiritual sustenance, and they worshiped the flag as long as it was a flag. They could see it openly, but after knowing that there were companies and a country behind the Ocean's fleet, they couldn't help wondering what this country was like, and whether it was more powerful than the Dawen Dynasty. sharp.
