The salted fish couple is fleeing famine

Chapter 343 Accompanying
Faisal, the food merchant, also brought a fleet this time, accompanied by ten food ships.

The shrewd Feisal, according to the purchase lists of Daxia ship merchants, brought all the goods that they bought the most.

Among them, the most precious ambergris was a generous gift they prepared for His Majesty the Emperor of Daxia.

As the best maritime trader in this dynasty.

In the past, most of Tianzhu’s valuable commodities were contracted by large food merchants.

They continuously transported spices, gems, etc. from Tianzhu to European countries for sale.

There are still many big food merchants living in Tianzhu all year round.

They not only have shops and trading points in Tianzhu, but they even have many plantation estates.

Tianzhu slaves were allowed to help them grow cotton, pepper, rice and other food or cash crops all year round.

The sharing of the voyage to Tianzhu was also their sincerity in allowing them to go to the Great Xia Dynasty.

For Gao Huaiyu and others, nothing is more important than navigation safety.

They want to enter Ravi (Arabian Sea) from Dayer Port and go eastward to Tianzhu.

After boarding the ship, Yuan Wenjie and the others spent almost the whole day on the Faisal or No. 3 ship.

The teenagers are now studying Da Shiwen in depth.

Faisal and the imperial physician Sharif also began to learn Bactrian Mandarin.

They will live in Daxia for several years in the future, and they will better understand the significance of learning Daxia Mandarin.

Huang Shangshu and several officials from the Lifan Yuan lay flat on their backs, lying in ruins!

For older people like them, it is easy to get tongue-tied when talking about Da Shiyu, so let the young people struggle.

After spending so much time at sea, by the time they return to Daxia, these young men should be able to speak, read, and write Da Shi fluently!

Qin Ke: Haha, Lifanyuan, you are such a bad person!

Hei Wa felt that he should be able to relax more during this voyage.

There are people to navigate, and compared to the Pacific and Atlantic Oceans, they have the right time, place, people and people in the Arabian Sea, so they can paddle.

Of the more than a thousand orchid plants dug up by the teenagers, not a single one has died so far, and a dozen of them even have flower buds.

Unfortunately, it was divided among Master Yan, Huang Shangshu and Hei Wa and placed in their cabin.

It is impossible to return it before the flowering period is over.

The two ponies got along like fish in water on the No. 1 ship.

The two black horses are very spiritual. Heiwa sneaked into space water several times and gave them a drink before they became attached to him.

The sparkling eyes are as crystal clear as black stones and as pure as lake water.

When I want to please you, my heart is full of you.

Horses can actually act cute? !

After seeing Hei Wa's description of the new favorite he received in the letter, Cuihua loves the house and Wu.

For this large food horse, which is said to be very precious, several acres of barley were planted in the space for them.

Knowing that the horse is young, the oats have been crushed.

Barley, oats, corn plus fresh alfalfa, carrots and apples are also available for snacks.

As long as Heiwa has a chance to sneak across, the two ponies will be able to eat the most delicious horse food.

As a result, Heiwa was fed on several boats every day, taking turns to be a happy breeder. Huang Shangshu envied Uncle Zhongqin very much. Uncle Zhongqin was so popular with these animals.

None of the alpacas, little ostriches, or little zebras were afraid when they saw him.

They all wanted to squeeze in front of him!

I don’t know if the food that comes from his hands is particularly delicious?

Breeder Zhongqin Bo: Animals are not fools, they are smart.

If it weren't for his magic water, it's hard to tell how many of these little animals would have survived to the summer.

It was a relaxing and enjoyable voyage and the end of the month was quickly approaching.

"It's almost the Chinese New Year in our summer, and we haven't celebrated the Chinese New Year at home for two years!"

Huang Shangshu was very sad. He had never left the capital for most of his life.

I didn’t expect that even though I’m old, I could still come out and have such a great experience.

Hei Wa also sighed: "Let's try to celebrate the New Year at home next year. Master Shangshu, who are the people in your family? What are the customs during the New Year?"

If there was no space, like Huang Shangshu and others, who had no information about their family for two years, he would be more emotional than Huang Shangshu.

"My family, when it comes to celebrating the New Year, it is a lively event. My wife is very lucky. She gave me two sons and two daughters, eight grandchildren and six grandchildren. There are so many people celebrating the New Year, so I give out lucky money. I have to make a lot of money. My youngest grandson was only three months old when I left, so he can call me grandpa now."

It's rare to see Huang Shangshu have such a tender moment, and he can't stop talking about his children and grandchildren.

Just listening to what he said about such a big family, it seems that the son doesn’t have much future and is all supported by him alone!

No wonder he took the initiative to go to sea at such an age.

Huang Shangshu also harvested a lot of gems when he came out this time. Hei Wa and the others ate meat, and he could also drink broth.

The distance traveled this time was more than several times the sum of all his previous salaries in his life. He was very satisfied.

"It turns out that this is how you Lu people celebrate the New Year. It's really different from our customs in Shu. On the first day of the new year, we all eat glutinous rice balls."

The two of them got more and more excited as they talked, and they wanted to go home right away to celebrate the New Year.

They were so eloquent that they even attracted Master Yan.

Mr. Yan immediately joined the topic.

After expressing their feelings about the Chinese New Year in their own homes, the last few people unanimously decided that they would have a good New Year even if they were on the boat.

Feisal was also listening to Yuan Wenwu's story about a particularly grand and grand festival in their summer: the Chinese New Year!

Yuan Wenwu drooled as he spoke: "We Shu people, starting from this month, will kill pigs to make bacon sausages. Wealthy people will also bake chickens, ducks, and fish together."

Well, after these are pickled in salt, they are then smoked with fragrant branches. When smoked to a yellow frost, they can be stored for a year. It's a pity that you don't eat pork. Let me tell you, pork is the most delicious meat! "

Qin Ke was very appreciative: "Yes, yes, in addition to bacon, my aunt's steamed pork belly, salty braised pork belly, braised pork, and garlic pork ribs are also top-notch delicious, but they are all inseparable from pork!"

Several teenagers looked at Faisal with regretful expressions, as if he had missed the best delicacy in the world.

Faisal has no regrets at all. He is a devout Muslim and his faith does not allow him to eat pork.

Camel meat, beef, mutton and sea fish are also very delicious!

"In addition to making cured meats, after the first day of the Lunar New Year, we also visit relatives to pay New Year's greetings. Our elders will give us New Year's money, and we will be entertained with delicious food and drinks at every relative's house. On the fifteenth day of the first lunar month, there will also be watching It’s so lively to guess riddles on lanterns and set off fireworks!”

Now that their wallets are bulging, they are no longer eager to get the New Year's money from their elders. When they return home, they can also give the New Year's money to their younger brothers and sisters.
