The bad emperor of Tang Dynasty

After the ship bypassed the extension of the island at the end of Zhuya, Hainan Island, it then sailed towards the offshore east route close to the continental shelf. The ship was blown by the northeast trade wind along the way, maintaining a speed of [-] knots per hour.

The ship was loaded with a large amount of goods purchased from Datang, and Abbas was always looking forward to earning two rounds of sailing.This time he deliberately wholesaled commodities worth 6 to [-] taels of silver from Quanzhou Trading Company.

The first stop of the voyage was the country of Chenla, which is the area of ​​Vietnam in later generations.As the first supply station in Southeast Asia, the voyage lasted for about ten days. After landing, Abbas led the group to disembark happily, and everyone went directly to the nearby tavern. Stuffed.

While drinking and relaxing on the shore in Chenla, Abbas did not forget to add thousands of gallons of fresh water from near the pier. You must know that when sailing in the vast ocean, you may not encounter islands with fresh water resources on the way. For food, fresh water is undoubtedly the most important.

This merchant ship named "Apis" carried Abbas and more than ten sailors. These people came from the Persian Gulf and the Arabian Peninsula. Except for one from Western Europe, the other was from the Great Qin State. .

Now in AD 700, Persia is under the rule of the Sasanian dynasty. As a Persian, Abbas also carries many Sassanian gold and silver coins carved with figures, each of which is golden and silver.However, apart from the Arab world, especially the Far East, such as Datang and Southeast Asian waters, these eastern countries do not accept Persian currency transactions.However, the Dali Yuanbao of the Tang Dynasty is used all over the world and is a hard currency.

In addition to buying a large amount of fresh water and Chenla barley sake, Abbas specially ordered hundreds of catties of fresh spinach and other green leafy vegetables, and loaded and unloaded them into the cabin in boxes. During the voyage, he always ate dry food and preserved meat. If the nutrition is unbalanced, it will not work without green vegetables.

Chenla is in the early stages of agricultural development, and the demand for high-end commodities is not too great, such as the sculptures brought by Abbas from Persia, gilded silverware, and velvet sweaters, which are unaffordable for ordinary people in Chenla. , but Abbas was very lucky this time. He met a great nobleman in Chenla, and he sold several bronze sculpture crafts that had not been sold in Datang.

Living supplies are very popular locally, such as Flynn’s pepper, Naples beef jerky, Greek olive oil, and authentic wine from Venice. These are all good wines that have been stored in the cellar for 500 years in oak barrels. Abbas However, he spent a lot of money to buy three large wine barrels from a Venetian wine merchant, with about 1000 gallons of wine, and sold more than [-] gallons in Youzhou and Luoyang in the Tang Dynasty, and he deliberately kept some of them.

Guo Nuan was bored sailing in the vast ocean, and he was a rich noble young master. After throwing a heavy bag of money to Abbas, Guo Nuan went to the cabin below the deck to store money every day. Tasting wine in the living room, and recently invited Pei Pei, an official and rich lady, to fight wine.

The two set off in a hurry without much money, only a few thousand taels. They pooled their money together and sold [-] gallons of wine.

The sea water on the coast of Chenla is clear and clear, and there are many islands and reefs scattered around it. The white sand on the shoal is surrounded by coconut groves and covered with swaying shells, which is very beautiful.

During the three days of staying in Chenla, Guo Nuan and Pei Pei wandered around the pier market during the day, or went to the beach to sunbathe in the open air, and participated in the bonfire dance party with everyone in the evening.

Camping on the beach, they fell down on the soft and clean sand tiredly. The two of them looked up to the sky and quietly stared at the magnificent and magical blue sky above their heads. Guo Nuan and Pei Pei, who used to be noisy when they met, have gradually become a group of friends with delicate relationship during the more than ten days of getting along and working together on HNA.

"Tell me, what are you going to do after you find the treasure called Sun En, the pirate king? Are you going to become a rich woman with countless treasures, and raise many face-faced men like Wu Zetian?" ?”

Guo Nuan lay on the sand and watched the stars twinkle in the sky. Recently, he has been worrying about Ah Fu's safety, but it is not easy to find someone in the vast sea. After a long time of tense nerves, he had to rely on He spent his days drinking and getting drunk, and now he has also learned to relax as much as possible. Now when he landed on the pier, he wanted to relax his tense thoughts.

Pei Pei, who was next to him, lay down without saying a word at the moment. The bonfire tens of meters away was surrounded by the crew happily grilling, and the firelight reflected on her sweet and elegant face, which looked very charming, but her eyes were closed. On it, a smile appeared on the corner of her mouth. After a long time of sea voyage bumps, she finally set her feet on the ground. She just wanted to take a good rest while snuggling up on the soft sand.

"Well—I won't tell you..." After Guo Nuan asked for a long time, Pei Pei suddenly let out a hum from his nasal cavity, and lazily spit out a sentence. She joked.

"Stingy, brother is not rare." Guo Nuan curled her lips, expressing a small protest against Pei Pei's casual perfunctory

"Ask a question." Pei Pei suddenly turned sideways, opened her big black jewel-like eyes with a smile, and lay on her side facing Guo Nuan who was lying flat next to her. Constellation, muttering:

"Where are the Ursa Major and Ursa Minor, oh, first find the coordinates of the Big Dipper, the distance between the last two gaps on the handle of the spoon multiplied by seven... is."

"Hey, I want to ask you something, Mr. Guo!"

Seeing Guo Nuan lying on the ground and muttering to himself, Pei Pei couldn't help but show a trace of dissatisfaction on her delicate cheeks, and immediately stretched out a claw to twist on the tender flesh of Guo Nuan's waist. After twisting it without letting go and turning it 360 degrees, Guo Nuan suddenly grinned in pain.

"Grandma, it hurts, you should let go quickly...Speak quickly, if you have a problem, don't say anything." Guo Nuan immediately begged for mercy, and hastily stretched out a hand to hold Pei Pei and twist it on him. The slender hands at the waist.

With a whoosh, Pei Pei pulled out a smooth and soft hand from Guo Nuan's palm, and blushes appeared unconsciously on both sides of the cheeks hidden in the darkness, but the darkness of the night shrouded the air, Guo Nuan didn't care about these details of Pei Pei. See.
