Chapter 2 Jiaodong ([-])

One month later

Big summer
Silvermoon Harbor

O-O--

"hurry up!"

"Wow, it's the waves!"

"Seeded cakes, sesame seed cakes for a penny."

"Boss, that gentleman is here."

"Mother, I want to buy that one, and that one."

Snow-white seagulls fly in the blue sky, people come and go on the streets, there are dock workers carrying goods, small vendors selling groceries, and children and women going shopping, forming a beautiful picture scroll in Liaodong, which is far away from the Central Plains.

There are more than a dozen merchant ships loading cargo on the sea. Each merchant ship is about ten feet long and three feet wide. A black flag is hung on the mast. The front of the black flag is embroidered with a golden crescent moon and the back is embroidered with the word "King" in gold.

"The previous owner built a port here. Because the harbor is shaped like a bright moon, and the closed and extended land on both sides is silvery in color, it is called Yinyue Port." The young girl Wang Luojiao stood on a merchant ship headed by it, facing the young people beside her. The man came talking.

"Guojiao, you know a lot." Wang Taihao, who was standing at the bow of the boat admiring the sea view, smiled, and unconsciously grabbed the girl's hand.

Today, he is wearing a silver-white costume, a jade crown on his head, a pair of cloth shoes wrapped in animal skins, with water droplets on the shoes, and a long sword pinned to his waist. It was Liu Xiongqu, king of Jiaodong, the great Han, who gave them the royal family.

"Cousin..." Wang Ruojiao blushed as she was grabbed by the slender hand, and hurriedly pulled it out of the man's hand, and put it on the pole of the boat. She lowered her head for a long time and didn't know what she was thinking. After a long time, she said to the man beside her: " My cousin is going to Jiaodong for trade this time, which belongs to the Central Plains area, and we still need to get a trade name, so as not to be ridiculed by the Central Plains people that our Wang family does not understand etiquette."

"Font size?" Wang Taihao was taken aback for a moment, and then remembered that his grandmother had reminded him of this before, but he didn't pay much attention to it at the time, so he was silent for a long time, brewing in his mind for a long time, and still couldn't think of a good font size, so he laughed : "Haha, Yaojiao, why don't you give me a name."

"But according to the etiquette of the Central Plains, the elders have to get the name. If it's not possible, you can get it yourself. How can I give you a name for my cousin..." Facing the man's request, Wang Ruojiao just felt ridiculous. Admiring and studying the culture of the Central Plains, I dare not do this unethical thing.

"So what's the matter? This is not the Central Plains after all, why do we have to follow the etiquette of the Central Plains, isn't it?" Wang Taihao grew up in Wangjiazhuang, and the farthest place he has been to is only the county town of Dashui County. Most of the rest of his life They are all following the elders of the clan to hunt in the mountains and forests, or to capture the local aborigines, so they don't care about the so-called etiquette of the Central Plains.

After all, he looked at the beautiful girl Wang Ruojiao with great interest.

I saw Wang Ruojiao wearing a sky blue long dress, the gauze dress fluttering in the sea breeze, the blue phoenix hairpin inlaid with jade on her head, shining in the sun, her delicate oval face reflected in the waves, her snowy skin moist like Beautiful jade, blue silk swaying like willows, beautiful eyes like glass, and a pair of jade bamboo shoots like suet, making people want to take a bite.

Zhongyuan may not be interested in other things, but he is still very interested in clothes like this and such beauties.

"Cousin... don't be like this..." Wang Luojiao was even more shy when she was looked at like this, her cheeks were so red that they seemed to be dripping water.

"I feel uncomfortable if Ruojiao doesn't give me a name." Wang Taihao continued jokingly.

"I, I just choose a brand name for my cousin..." The entangled Wang Luojiao had no choice but to think about it, and finally pursed her lips and said, "Tai is safe, Hao is prosperous, how about the name Ning Wei? "

"Ning Wei, Ning Wei, this name chosen by Yaojiao is great." Wang Taihao also doesn't understand the meaning of "Ning Wei", but it doesn't matter, as long as it is chosen by Wang Yaojiao, he likes it.

After that, he smiled and said to the people on the boat: "When you arrive in Jiaodong, you don't need to call me Patriarch anymore, but call me Mr. Ning Wei."

"Yes." Everyone responded, not daring to have an opinion.

Just at this time, Wang Song, who didn't know it, came over and respectfully said to Wang Taihao: "Master, the goods have been loaded, should we set sail now?"

"Huh?" Wang Taihao turned around and saw that the ten merchant ships were already full, and immediately said politely to Wang Song, "Third Uncle, you are in command."

"Yes." Wang Song retreated respectfully, and began to direct the boatmen to pull anchor and set sail.

Wang Taihao on the side also checked the third uncle's information by the way.

[Member: Wang Song
Heredity: Smart

Talent: articulate

Charisma: 28
Management: 18
Command: 10
Strategies: 18
Bravery: 30]

All attributes are average, but the talent of articulate is very suitable for following him to do business.

Thinking in this way, Wang Taihao glanced at Wang Laojiao who was still watching the sea scenery.

His cousin Wang Laojiao was the daughter of his third uncle Wang Song, and it was precisely for the sake of letting Wang Laojiao accompany him to Jiaodong that he brought Wang Song with him.

The former Patriarch Wang Kang had three sons and one daughter.

The eldest son, Wang Liang, was Wang Taihao's father, born of an unknown servant girl. He died in battle against the aborigines in the mountains and forests a long time ago, and his status in the Wang family was low.

The second son, Wang Chong, is Wang Taihao's second uncle, the old grandmother's own son, and also the only legitimate son of the former head of the family, with a high status in the Wang family.

The third son, Wang Song, is Wang Taihao's third uncle. He was born to the family head's concubine, and his status in the Wang family is average.

The eldest, Wang Yue, was Wang Taihao's fourth aunt, who was born to another concubine of the previous head of the family. Because she was favored by the previous head of the family, her status in the Wang family was slightly higher than that of the third uncle Wang Song. Wang Taihao is only two or three years older.

"set sail!"

While meditating, the sonorous voice of the third uncle Wang Song came.

Then, more and more shouts sounded.

"Set sail!" "Set sail!" "Set sail!"

Crackling - crackling -

The ship started to leave the port, making a sound as the cargo on the ship rubbed against the hull.

Gradually, the ship sailed towards the depths of the sea, and the Yinyue Harbor at the rear became smaller and smaller in sight until it completely disappeared on the horizon.

vomit-vomit-

Wang Taihao, who was on a boat for the first time, became seasick and even vomited on the deck the hot rice porridge he drank in the morning.

"Cousin, you... are seasick?" Wang Ruojiao at the side also became at a loss. Although she doesn't know seasickness herself, she doesn't know how to help others solve this problem.

"I, vomit—" Just as he was about to speak, Wang Taihao felt dizzy, dizzy, and his whole body seemed to be floating. He didn't expect that he would get seasick.

Several servant girls came to clean the ground, and the vomit was poured directly into the sea to feed the fish.

"call--"

After vomiting all the food in his body, Wang Taihao finally felt much more comfortable. He sat on the deck with a pale face, took a long breath, his whole body was limp, and he didn't even have the strength to stand up.

"Patriarch?" At this time, the third uncle Wang Song came over to investigate Wang Taihao's situation, and after seeing that he was fine, he turned his head and said to his daughter Wang Ruojiao: "Girl, let the Patriarch smell the sachet on your body." , it will feel better."

Wang Luojiao was taken aback for a moment, and after realizing it, she quickly went to the sachet on her waist, and put the sachet to the tip of Wang Taihao's nose.

"Luojiao, it's better for you to treat me better." Smelling the sachet, Wang Taihao's consciousness gradually became clear, and he grabbed Wang Luojiao's slender hand holding the sachet.

"Cousin, don't be like this..." Wang Luojiao's heart was beating violently, and her ears and cheeks were blushing.

The third uncle Wang Song on the side just watched all this with a smile, and then left silently.
