Recreating the prosperous Tang begins with summoning players

Chapter 624

For Li Fuhai, sailing is a rare and unique experience.

The speed of the clipper ship is extremely fast, but when traveling on the vast sea, without the reminder of afterglow, this speed can be quickly adapted.

The most unbearable thing at sea is seasickness.

This time it is an ocean voyage, so Su Xing, the player who built this clipper ship, is also the captain of this clipper ship. He chose to sail in the open sea. bumps.

For the first few days on board, Li Fuhai spent time in the cabin with a wooden barrel in his arms. The violent turbulence made him almost spit out his bile. The other players who went south were in the same situation as him. A bad stench.

After sailing at sea for a week, Li Fuhai could finally leave the cabin, occasionally do something on the deck, and look at the sea.

Su Xing was adjusting the sail on the deck, Li Fuhai offered to help after he came, and adjusted the angle of the sail.

During this period of sailing career, Su Xing's skin was dark and he looked like he had experienced a lot of vicissitudes.

This is also the "truth" of Datang Fengyun. Walking in the desert for a long time will make the corners of the mouth turn up, and the natural environment will also leave traces on the characters.

Su Xing looked at the sun in the distance and said: "According to the map, we will arrive in Yangzhou after two days of sailing."

Arriving in Yangzhou meant that half of the journey was over, and Li Fuhai finally breathed a sigh of relief, he really didn't want to take the boat anymore.

Get rid of modern people's daydreams about nautical life, and the real wooden sailboat is comparable to a prison at sea.

Because the clipper ship has a narrow hull and needs to carry fresh water and some cargo, the space in the cabin is very small, and all crew members are squeezed into one crew cabin.

The smell in the cabin can be said to be indescribable, and in order to be able to fall asleep on the rough sea, the cabin is full of hammocks.

Nearly 30 people are squeezed into this narrow cabin and sleep in hammocks. The per capita area may be similar to that of a prison cell.

In addition, there are so many jobs on a ship that I really can't do it if I want to.

Fortunately, this clipper ship is a new ship, and there is no work to repair the hull. Su Xing can still rely on sailors to maintain it. However, when there was a big storm the night before, all the crew and passengers went into battle, and then the mainsail was lowered. .

When the storm left, it was the whole ship who worked hard together to raise the mainsail.

Sailors in the age of sailing can be said to be quite hard-working. It's not that they can't eat, and no one wants to go to sea to work hard.

Ocean voyages have always been quite painful journeys until the appearance of ocean-going ships such as the Titanic. Of course, the passengers of the Titanic were also very painful.

Two days later, the land was finally seen, and all the crew members stood on the deck looking at the distant port like prisoners who were about to be released from prison.

Yangzhou Port!Now the most prosperous city in Datang, the second most prosperous seaport in Datang!

The most prosperous seaport is of course Quanzhou Port, but around Yangzhou Port there is still a thousand-sail race, with various styles of boats waiting to enter the port. This bustling scene surprised Li Fuhai.

"Didn't it mean that Yangzhou is about to go to war? Why is it still so lively?"

Su Xing had already done his homework and said, "It is because of the war that Yangzhou continues to open its ports. These are merchant ships delivering supplies to Yangzhou."

Sure enough, there was a sound of horns on the sea, and a large Tang Dynasty treasure ship flew a dragon flag, and the surrounding small boats stepped aside one after another, allowing this ship to enter the port first.

Su Xing pointed to the treasure ship and said, "That's a Datang official ship from Quanzhou Port, and it's a grain transport ship."

Li Fuhai exclaimed in surprise, "Did Tang use the sea to transport grain?"

"It's rare, but it's strange. Many grains in the southeast of the Tang Dynasty were transported to Yangzhou through Quanzhou Port, and then transported to the Guanzhong area through Yangzhou. At that time, the sea in the entire Northeast Asia was very lively."

Li Fuhai watched the official ship of the Tang Dynasty gradually approach the shore, how much food can such a big ship transport.

Fortunately, Wang Yadong, the head of Yangzhou Shipbuilding Department, was also a player. Under his arrangement, Suhang's clipper ship did not line up, and directly bypassed the rest of the foreign merchant ships and sailed into the port.

Wang Yadong stood on the pier and waited for Su Xing. When Su Xing's boat docked, Wang Yadong immediately held Su Xing's hand and said, "Master Su! Welcome to Yangzhou to guide our work!"

Speaking of which, Wang Yadong is going to take Su Xing to the shipyard to guide the shipyard of Yangzhou City Shipping Division to build flying shear ships.

Although the clipper ship has a small cargo capacity, it sails fast and is suitable for delivering messages and transporting valuable goods.

This kind of ship once appeared in large numbers on the seas of Northeast Asia in the [-]th century. At that time, the cargo transported by clipper ships was opium, which brought a painful memory to modern China.

However, the shipbuilding workshop in Yangzhou is also trying its best to imitate such a sea-going ship with excellent performance, but there are still several technical difficulties that are difficult to break through.

Su Xing didn’t hide his secrets, everyone was a player, and there were also a complete set of technical drawings of the flying shear ship on the Internet. He answered the craftsmen’s questions, and personally demonstrated the manufacturing methods of several important parts. The craftsmen in the Yangzhou Shipbuilding Workshop Immediately convinced by this young master craftsman.

Wang Yadong immediately sent supplies and fresh water to the clipper ship, and set up a banquet in Yangzhou Port to entertain the players on the ship.

Su Xing was in a good mood to be praised by a group of craftsmen, and it would take time to replenish, so he agreed.

"This restaurant is owned by Dashiren, everyone come and taste the flavor of Dashi!"

There are many restaurants in Yangzhou Port, these restaurants serve maritime merchants, so there are restaurants of various styles in Yangzhou Port.

This restaurant is a restaurant opened by a big food merchant, and its business has always been booming. After Datang decided to open the sea ban first in Yangzhou, it was full every day.

If it weren't for the great face of Wang Yadong Shibosi, this restaurant would not be able to line up in this restaurant on weekdays.

"This crockpot mutton is the specialty of this restaurant. Usually, you need to order in advance to eat it. This time, the back kitchen just made an extra jar. Everyone is lucky."

The guy lifted a vase-sized crock to the table, and the boy used a mallet to knock off the mud on the crock, and then the rich aroma of mutton permeated the dining table.

Wang Yadong introduced: "In fact, this dish is also simple to sit up. It is to put the mutton into the earthen pot, then add their Persian medicinal wine and water, seal the mouth of the earthen pot with soil, and heat it next to the fire pit. The trick is to use the residual heat of the fire pit for another day to make the mutton soft and tender, so hurry up and try it.”

Li Fuhai couldn't help moving his chopsticks, he didn't expect that the exotic delicacies he ate in this game were so delicious.

Wang Yadong put down his chopsticks and said, "Actually, this Dashi dish is lackluster, and this one is okay."

He swept across the table and said, "What do you guys think of Yangzhou? Now Yangzhou is developing. If you are willing to stay, I can recommend it to the high-ranking envoy. The high-level envoy is thirsty for talents?"

Su Xing was just burying his head in cooking, and seeing Wang Yadongtu poorly, he was trying to poach someone.

But he was just a boat driver, and the players on the boat were all invited by friends to develop in the south. What does poaching people have to do with Su Xing?

Although Datang Fengyun is a game, some people have put forward the slogan of Second Life on the Internet. This is indeed an intoxicating Second Life.

Since it is Second Life, it is very difficult for most players to leave the comfort zone before accumulating the resurrection book.

People are group animals. New players choose Longyou, Hexi, Lingzhou, Chang'an, and Liaodong. These are relatively safe options, and there is also a set of upgrade plans that veteran players have explored.

General players can start to upgrade from instructors in Zhechong Mansion, official players can start from small officials, and even hundred craftsmen can also start to upgrade from apprentices.

But going to places like Quanzhou or even Bao'an County is equivalent to starting a business in one place, just like the first-test and second-test players.

In contrast, places like Yangzhou and Yizhou are areas where players have already laid the foundation and are about to take off.

For example, there is already a new army in Yizhou, and Wang Yadong has already served as the head of the Yangzhou Shipping Department. Many players have already mixed into the local officialdom, and these places have battles to fight.

Staying in Yangzhou is a better choice for many people.

Sure enough, as soon as Wang Yadong spoke, the table fell silent.

Several players who went to Bao'an County with Li Fuhai also hesitated.

Xu Hao also updated the video of Bao'an County on the Internet. The entire tropical rainforest park is still the one where rhinos and crocodiles are not in cages.

The weather is hot and the miasma is rampant. It can't compare to the prosperous Chang'an City.

Moreover, Yangzhou is about to go to war, which is also a good opportunity to make contributions.

Sure enough, after Wang Yadong brought it up, some players were already moved. Wang Yadong immediately added these players as friends, and then started chatting privately to attract people.

For Wang Yadong, the players who can come to Yangzhou are all of the same way, and these players recommended by him can naturally strengthen the influence of the players in the high-level envoy's mansion, and it will also facilitate his future work.

After the guests and hosts had a good time, Wang Yadong arranged for them to stay for another night. When they set sail again the next day, Li Fuhai found that the number of players traveling with him was reduced by half.

On the contrary, Su Xing was surprised that he could keep half of the players. He smiled and said to Li Fuhai: "Isn't it good to stay in Yangzhou? This is a good opportunity?"

Li Fuhai said with a smile: "If I want to stay in Yangzhou, why don't I stay in Liaodong and fight with Boss Yuchi?"

Su Xing laughed and said, "Indeed, come and help pull the sail, the wind is blowing, hurry to Quanzhou!"

　Many readers have responded that the plot is one hammer and one stick, here is an explanation.

　　The structure of this novel is chronological, basically there is no special memory part, and it all develops according to time.

　　The current main line is Huilieting Prefecture (on the road), Liaodong southward (nothing to write about, just fighting to divide the land), Luoyang offensive and defensive (Shi Siming has not yet arrived), Xuzhou campaign (An Qingxu is on his way).

　　In this advancing time, it is boring to write about the King of Yue on his way, or the Pingjin battle report, and that is the number of words.

　　Therefore, operations in other regions will be interspersed, and these branch lines will be topped up after a certain main line ends in the later stage. This is the structure of the main line and branch lines in this book.

　　I understand that most readers are not complaining about the scattered structure, but that my writing is too slow. Sorry, I can't write fast. . . .

　　Apologize, beg for mercy, many things happened a year ago, let's see if there is a chance to add more in the next year
