Chapter 1110 Target Dalian
How long you have to wait at the port is not fixed.

Because of long-term drought, Shandong people chose to migrate to find a way to make a living in Guandong.

Also because of the drought, the Zhu family's journey of more than ten days went quite smoothly.

We have never encountered rainy days, which is the most troublesome time for traveling in this era, and it will delay the trip.

Now, also because of the drought, there is no wind on the sea and the boat cannot be sailed.

If you are stranded at the port, you need to make a long-term plan.

"Chuanwu, come here and climb the tree, and let's build an awning."

In modern times, sunshine, parasols, and deck chairs are a must on the beach.

In this feudal era, except for the sunshine, naturally no one prepares these industrial products, but you can find some substitutes.

If you want to stay more comfortable, you can still do it.

"Brother, this is the sea."

Chuanwu has no culture, otherwise he could sigh, "The sea is all water", but now I can only sigh like this.

Although there are no waves, the sea level is endless and it is much more magnificent than the river surface.

"This is the sea. Swimming in the sea is different from swimming in the river. Don't even think about swimming in the sea."

Although autumn has begun, the temperature has begun to drop a bit, making it no longer suitable for swimming in the sea.

But Zhu Chuanwen never overestimates Zhu Chuanwu's brain.

Zhu Chuanwen has always felt that this second brother is a bit stunned. His body is faster than his brain and he can't do anything.

"I don't want to go into the sea. There are many people there, so I'll go over there and take a look."

He doesn't like to use his brain, but he is not brainless. After being warned, Zhu Chuanwu also knew how to change the subject.

"That's a porridge shed set up by a wealthy family. It's used to provide relief to the victims. If you think it's okay, don't go and use the bowl."

After making a distinction, Zhu Chuanwen replied to Chuanwu.

There are many bad people, bandits and bandits are everywhere, but there are also many good people.

The fact that so many disaster victims are able to get here is a big credit to the good-hearted people along the way.

Without some help from passers-by, most of them would not be able to migrate.

Although Lao Zhu's family is also in difficulty, at least they have the silver coins sent back by Zhu Kaishan.

No matter what, we should not compete with these people who have no food to eat for relief.

"Chuanwu, if you want to go and see it, go and see it. Don't squeeze in."

Mrs. Zhu Wei was also worried about Chuanwu and gave another instruction to Chuanwu as he walked away.

After traveling hundreds of miles, Zhu Chuanwu is the only one among the Zhu family who is still full of energy.

After Zhu Weishi, Xian'er, and Chuanjie arrived, they spread out on the beach and didn't want to move anymore.

"Mom, I'm going to buy some seafood. Now that we've settled down, let's cook some seafood porridge."

These days, Lao Zhu's family basically eats dry food, at least two meals a day.

The pancakes taste good and have many flavors, but they become monotonous after a long time.

Now that I've settled down, I don't have to rush on the road, so I have time to set up a clay pot, cook some porridge, and have a serious meal.

In this day and age, ordinary seafood is not expensive.

If you don’t eat something when you come, it won’t be appropriate.

"Cuanwen, we don't have any use for the carriage. You go try to sell the carriage and bring back some food. We don't know how long we have to wait at the port."

An ordinary fishing boat converted into a cargo ship, of course, does not have a horse barn.

There is no possibility of taking a horse on a boat, and it has nothing to do with whether the Zhu family is willing to spend more money.

Looking at the entire port, which was basically filled with disaster victims, Zhu Wei also felt anxious about lack of food.

"Okay, I'll go sell the carriage."

Zhu Chuanwen responded. This was originally Zhu Chuanwen's plan.

When the carriage arrives here, it has completed its mission and must be disposed of.

Zhu Chuanwen hasn't figured out how to deal with it yet.

But after Zhu Chuanwen asked about the price, Zhu Chuanwen no longer struggled.

The prices offered by these businesses at the port are not high, and they are somewhat trying to take advantage of others' disadvantages.

Lao Zhu's family's funds are sufficient for the time being.

Zhu Chuanwen did not choose to sell it at a low price and keep a carriage in the small world, which would definitely be useful when it comes.

In this era, horses are the most convenient means of transportation.

If the carriage is not sold, it is necessary to prepare food and grass for the horse.

After preparing horse materials for a month, Zhu Chuanwen found a place where no one was around, and even the horse and carriage people put the carriage away.

Zhu Chuanwen also took in some items that were difficult to carry on board the ship, including a few simple knives, which were a bit too eye-catching.

This is considered to be the placement of the horses.

"Mom, this is what I bought."

After shopping around, Zhu Chuanwen also spent more than 3,000 yuan that he had saved.

In fact, after getting on the ship, there was no possibility of resupply.

The money must have been spent more realistically. Whether it is copper dollars or silver coins, they should not be eaten or drunk, and there is no material substance.

This part of the money was mainly used to buy food.

The daily supplies on the road before were spent on silver coins sent back by Zhu Kaishan.

The subsistence allowance given to Zhu Chuanwen by the system has been retained, and now he has just cleared his name.

Plus some supplies provided by the system, including various grains, meat, pastries, and drinks.

It's roughly the same value as a carriage.

"Zhuanwen, where can I buy these? I thought I could only buy some grain and pancakes."

Zhu Chuanwen brought back so many things, which was a surprise to the whole family, especially the Zhu Wei family who was responsible for the whole family.

In fact, Zhu Wei was just an outstanding rural woman.

I have never traveled far and have no experience in long-distance migration. I am actually quite worried about whether the family will have good food and housing.

He looked very strong along the way, calmly making various arrangements, most of which were just holding on.

It is completely a manifestation of being strong as a mother.

"We can't just eat some pancakes. During these few days, we can stop and repair, and we can also eat something good. Otherwise, when we get to the ship, there will be wind and waves on the sea, which will be more bumpy than the carriage, and we may not be able to eat by then."

Although Zhu Wei did not ask Zhu Chuanwen why he spent all the money, Zhu Chuanwen still explained it.

Even after leaving the house, Mrs. Zhu Wei basically gave herself the right to speak, but respect still has to be there.

After making various preparations, Lao Zhu's family was waiting for the wind to come at the port.

It's not that Lao Zhu's family is in a hurry. Most people's material preparations are not as good as Lao Zhu's.

More anxious than Lao Zhu's family showed.

Even if a wealthy family provides porridge, their homes are not wireless.

Even large households cannot afford to feed thousands of people for a long time in such a disaster year.

It took a long time for the wind to come, but in this era, feudal superstition began to develop.

Under the leadership of the big family, the port began to carry out activities to worship the Poseidon with great fanfare.

The victims, hoping that the wind would blow and they could hit the road as soon as possible, also actively followed them to offer sacrifices and pray.

It is of course useless to engage in such superstition. The most it can do is soothe the emotions of the victims.

One day there was no wind, two days there was no wind, and after more than ten days there was still no wind.

This time is longer than Zhu Chuanwen estimated.

"Brother, what are these people waiting for at the port? There is no food now, and there will be no food after boarding the ship?" Chuanjie sighed as he looked at the densely packed victims waiting for relief on the beach.

"Isn't this just waiting for a hope? Those who really have no food at all have already changed their route and set off from the dry road, preparing to beg for money along the way to Kanto."

Although the sea route to Guandong is dangerous.

But the sea route is at least fast, and the threat basically only comes from wind and waves. If the weather is good, we can reach Kanto in just ten days.

Taking the dry road is even more difficult. Not only will you encounter natural disasters, but there will also be constant man-made disasters along the way.

There are dangers for more than ten days, and risks are encountered every now and then for half a year or even a year.

No matter how you look at it, the success rate of taking the sea route is higher and the risk is higher.

So if possible, most of them are still waiting for the ship to leave.

"Brother Chuanwen, the road to Guandong is so difficult."

Xian'er looked at these victims and couldn't bear it either.

It can only be said that they feel the same way. Most of these people come from the same background as the Zhu family and the Tan family.

Although this girl lives in a rural area, her family was once wealthy. Even when she was poor, her parents and brother were still there to support her, just like flowers in a greenhouse.

In fact, I haven’t experienced any hardships before. If I say I’m not afraid of suffering, then I’ve never seen suffering.

After meeting these victims, I have a slightly deeper understanding of the difficulties of life.

Along the way, I was either rushing or practicing.

Zhu Chuanwen and Xian'er actually didn't have much communication.

This period of time is not suitable for two people to have romantic relationships.

For matters that require effort and intervention, Zhu Chuanwen and Chuanwu will take the initiative.

Xian'er was arranged by Zhu Chuanwen to stay with the Zhu Wei family.

Chatting with Mr. Zhu Wei, the two of them comforted each other and helped arrange three meals a day.

"I've told you before, this road is not easy, and Guandong is not that easy. It's too late for you to regret it now. Even if you want to go back, I can't send you back now."

Zhu Chuanwu was a reckless man, while Zhu Wei and Chuanjie were women and children.

There was no way Zhu Chuanwen could leave his family behind and send Xian'er back.

So from the moment she left Tanjia Village, Xian'er was destined to follow.

Although I can't imagine how Xian'er could chase the Zhu family to the port in the original plot.

But if she walks the same road again, there is a high probability that Xian'er will not be able to go back.

When you come here, it is easy to find a companion to travel through Guandong, and you can avoid many threats and difficulties without realizing it.

It is impossible for a pretty girl to go back alone.

"Brother Chuanwen, I have no regrets. I just think it's not easy for these people."

Xian'er replied seriously, which indeed moved Zhu Chuanwen a little.

"The wind is coming, the wind is coming!"

"The Goddess of Poseidon has appeared!"

"The boat is ready to sail."

Praying for rain all day long finally paid off.

"Get your luggage and follow me."

After hearing waves of cheers coming from the port, Zhu Chuanwen called out to several people from Lao Zhu's family.

Zhu Chuanwen was running around the port all day, not just watching the excitement.

Knowing that the ship was in danger of being bombarded, Zhu Chuanwen had been looking for a guiding light for himself.

He had already set his sights on Xia Yuanzhang, who was wearing silk.

Among a group of ragged victims, a neatly dressed and well-dressed businessman stood out.

"Take your baggage and don't get separated."

Thousands of people crowded onto the pier together, which was of course quite chaotic.

Zhu Wei had no choice but to shout loudly.

These people don't know that this is the last ship to go outside the customs this year.

In any case, the officials who manage the port are pretty reliable.

Although the port was blocked, basic public order was maintained.

Otherwise, let these victims know that if they cannot board this ship, there will be no ships sent to Kanto this year, and there will be no hope.

Just the crowding and trampling of these people can reduce the number of people first.

"Chuanwu, go to the back and protect your mother, Chuanjie and your sister Xian'er."

At this time, Chuanwu was of some use. Together with Zhu Chuanwen, he protected the women and children in the middle, successfully seized the opportunity, and boarded the fishing boat.

"I'm finally on the boat. The most difficult step is finally over."

After all five people got on the boat, even Zhu Chuanwen let out a big breath.

It is really not an easy task to drag a young child out.

After successfully boarding the ship, we passed the most difficult step.

"Brother, can I move around now?" Chuanjie asked anxiously after the boat sailed smoothly.

"This boat is crowded with people. Where do you want to go?"

A twenty-meter-long three-rail sailboat was crowded with about two hundred people.

In other words, everyone has a place to stay, and there is no room for movement at all.

"There is a gentleman reading a book there. I want to take a look."

Xia Yuanzhang said, passing Jie's finger.

"Go."

Seeing that Xingjie was looking for Xia Yuanzhang, Zhu Chuanwen waved his hand and replied.

These two people are really destined to know each other.

Taking a boat is a boring thing. Xia Yuanzhang only picked up a book to read. Xingjie was bored, so he could only go to Xia Yuanzhang.

"Mom, we're on board the ship. Once we get off the ship, we'll go outside the customs. You should have a good rest."

The others are all illiterate or illiterate with very little literacy. They have no intention of reading and passing the boring time.

When we get on the boat, we just wake up to eat, eat to sleep, wake up and then be in a daze, and eat when we are hungry, which can only be said to be very boring.

But boring at least proves that there is no danger, which is the best result.

"Brother, I'm a little too busy."

Chuanjie got bored, so he looked for Uncle Xia Yuanzhang to watch.

In this era when books are not cheap, there is no such thing as borrowing books if they are strangers.

He could only stand aside while Xia Yuanzhang was looking through it.

But for a person like Chuanwu who is already very active, it would be very painful to sit in a daze all the time.

"I'll give you this fishing rod. You can fish with it. If you can catch it, you can cook the fish yourself and eat it raw."

Zhu Chuanwen also handed the fishing rod prepared for him to Chuanwu Wan.

It was time to buy fish, and I bought one from a fisherman.

I didn’t plan to receive any goods, I just wanted to kill some boring time.

Now that there is no fishing rod, Zhu Chuanwen can still chat with Zhu Weishi and Xian'er.

Listening to two people talking about ancient times and lecturing two people about ancient times can be considered a good way to spend time.
