Stir-fried Datang: The Strongest Daughter

Chapter 600 Strait of Malacca

Several kinds of fruits were brought over. Li Yin walked over carefully and put the pile of fruits under the tree. Seeing Li Yin approaching, the little orangutan screamed in fright and immediately jumped up. It disappeared on the tree in a few breaths, but the branch next to it moved, obviously afraid that Li Yin would catch it.

From this point of view, the people on this island may also eat orangutans.

Li Yin frowned, thought for a while, backed away, tried to show a friendly look, pointed to the fruit on the ground, and then pointed to his own mouth, then spread his hands to show that he was harmless.

Seeing Li Yin so persistently seducing the orangutan, Li Tai couldn't help it, "Sixth brother, although there is a record in this book that someone has eaten this, but you saw it just now, this thing looks too much like a human." It should be a very spiritual animal, you can't eat it."

Li You couldn't help but nodded and agreed: "Yes, yes, those who eat this food are not good people, it is a symbol of cruelty, you must not eat it, and let it go. I just looked at it. , I just feel that those eyes are extremely spiritual, like cat eggs, and fully understand what we are thinking. They also have hair on their bodies, otherwise they are no different from people, so they dare not eat them!"

Li Yin's face darkened, and the corners of his mouth twitched and he said, "Fourth brother, fifth brother, when did I say I want to eat it? I just saw this little thing is fun. I can learn my sister-in-law's knowledge well, so I catch it and want to raise it." Let's watch..."

After a pause, he continued: "Sister-in-law once said that people might look similar to this one before. They are our close relatives. There are similar remarks in the Shan Hai Jing. Such an interesting creature appeared in front of us. Shouldn't we take care of it?" Observe? Not to mention, the fact that this little thing was chased here by those four-legged snakes means that it has no status in their group, and I have done a great merit by catching and raising it!"

Baozhu looked at him suspiciously, "My lord, do you really just want to catch him and observe?"

"What's the meaning?!"

Facing the questioning from his former sweetheart, Li Yin only felt that his personality had been greatly insulted!
"I'm not gluttonous! I'll eat anything!"

Li Tai pouted, "You just wanted to eat that four-legged snake..."

"..."

So well said, it left me speechless!

Li Yin felt a burst of sadness.

Is he trying in the spirit of scientific experimentation?Why do you think of him so low-end?

After thinking about it again, I was relieved.

Of the princes among them, he is the one who is most proficient in science, and the other two know a little bit, but they are not as proficient in this way as him.Their brains are not the brains of a scientist, how can they understand his noble feelings of dedicating themselves to science?

That's all, that's all!
It doesn't matter if you don't say anything about playing the piano to a cow!
It is more important to lure this little orangutan.This is a rare opportunity, so grab it!
But then again, is its meat really that delicious?

There was silence among the branches of the canopy for a while.Suddenly, the branches trembled again, and a red figure slowly appeared, staring at it with timid eyes.The little thing hesitated for a while, then suddenly climbed down the tree at an extremely fast speed, grabbed the fruit on the ground with a flick of its long arm, and climbed back up the tree again.

Then he grabbed the trunk with one hand and ate it with the other.

It ate very fast, obviously starving.

This phenomenon aroused Li Yin's interest even more.He didn't leave either, just stood and watched the orangutan.

The little orangutan was probably still young, seeing Li Yin smiling at it, and throwing some food over, after eating for a while, it looked at Li Yin again.Seeing Li Yin grinning, it suddenly patted its chest, let out a "HOHO" cry, then grinned and laughed!
Everyone was amazed!

"What a laugh!"

"It's right this time! It's laughing, laughing!"

Everyone was amazed, now Li Tai and the others did not urge Li Yin to leave.

They stopped urging, but Li Yin was about to lift his foot and leave.

The weirdo!

I don't know if he stayed with his sister-in-law for a long time when he was a child, and his temper became more and more weird, and he didn't know what was going on in his mind.

A few more kilns were built in Jamma City, and the raw materials for making cement can be obtained here.Once a group of natives are convinced, it is natural to engage in urban construction, and a sharp weapon such as cement is indispensable.

Li Yin and his party did not dare to go too far.The woods here are dense and miasma-like, and it is dangerous to venture into unknown areas.Even if there is a party leading the way, they are responsible for the future of the Chinese descendants and the emperor's life, so they dare not gamble with their own lives.

After all, finding America is the most important thing!
The small flying clippers wandered around the nearby islands, roughly surveying the terrain here, and the subsequent tasks had to be completed by the defenders stationed here.But before that, they put landmarks and erected stone monuments wherever they said they stepped on, to show that this is the territory of the Tang Dynasty.

After another six or seven days, the follow-up fleet has gathered in Java, and there is no time to delay.After all the ships were resupplied, the Yanhuang on which Li Tai, Li Yin and others were on set sail, preparing to cross the Strait of Malacca.

Thousands of sails are competing, hundreds of boats are competing for the current, and the blue sea ships meet each other, leaving the shore one after another, and crossing the strait!
Zhang Chunrui drifted at sea for three days, and finally waited for all the imperial ships to pass.And because he was a big merchant with large and numerous seagoing ships, he had a high status among maritime merchants, so he was able to set off before others to cross the Strait of Malacca.

After the boat entered the strait, the space between the sky and the earth suddenly narrowed, and the sea was not as wide as before. When the boat was driving in the sea, the shore could even be seen, just like sailing in the mountains.After a while, the wind calmed down and the wind became extremely weak. A group of sailors who had crossed the Strait of Malacca several times skillfully lowered their sails. Under the water surface, some objects like water wheels emerged.

When I was young, the water splashed, the water waves rolled with the sailors' chant, and the boat started to move again.

The Strait of Malacca is located in the equatorial windless zone. It is hot and rainy all year round, and the wind is very small. Most of the time, the wind is weak. There may be severe storms in April-May and October-November, but generally it lasts for a short time, only a few minutes. There are not many obstacles to the ship's navigation, and the world calls the Strait of Malacca a smooth sailing strait.

At this time, when there is no external force to rely on, manpower is needed to solve it.These sailing boats are both sailing and scull boats, and Zhang Chunrui's main boat even uses pedal wheels. This is a boat designed by the imperial court in the past few years.When encountering a windless belt, pedaling is obviously more labor-saving than hand cranking.

Although it may seem silly to look at this behavior, in the years without steam engines as power, this design was already very advanced.If you cross the Cape of Good Hope, you will unfortunately drift into a windless zone. Although this method is stupid, as long as everyone works together, we can always get out.

At sea, time is life.You can't just live by looking at the face of God!Gotta take the initiative!

Human beings have been conquering the natural environment since the day they were able to make tools, so making more preparations, even if it looks ridiculous, is the way to save your life!
Zhang Chunrui recalled the first time he crossed the Strait of Malacca, and saw that all the boats were all sail and oar boats. The design of this ship is more reasonable, there is a rotating wheel under the rudder, which can assist in steering the rudder, this design is really amazing!"

Takahashi sullenly did not dare to speak.

Although he is heavily used by the patriarch, he never dared to forget the fact that he is not yet a Tang native.The mother of a country, the Tang people may still be able to sigh a few words, but he, a foreigner, absolutely dare not bring up this topic.

Not to mention, this mother of the country is still a monument in the minds of Tang people, and she is the incarnation of gods.In Japan, they absolutely dare not talk about the emperor.

Thinking of the Emperor, Takahashi glanced at his employer again, and couldn't help feeling a little envious.

In fact, he didn't have a surname at all, and the owner gave him the surname.I didn't dare to accept it at first, because those who have surnames and surnames in Dongpu are all big nobles.Although he once worked for the nobles, he was a pariah after all.It's just that the owner heard a few Dongying surnames from somewhere, so they gave him this name.

So now his surname is Gao, and his name is Qiao, which has nothing to do with that noble surname.At first he refused, but out of obedience to his superiors, after being explained by his boss, he accepted it calmly. (Hey, I'm round)

That's why Takahashi envied Tang Ren.

Thinking that the Great Tang is already so powerful, those who have never been to the Great Tang will never be able to imagine how rich, prosperous and powerful it is!But such a powerful empire is so humble!
Their people not only have names and surnames, but also worship their surnames as ancestors, which is unimaginable in Japan.

And even if ordinary people occasionally talk about the nobles in the court, or even the emperor, the queen is fine.But in Dongpu, if you look up at the nobles, you may be hacked to death.

In the past, he just took it for granted, but after arriving in Tang Dynasty, Takahashi discovered that people can still live like this!

Looking at the calm sea and the hazy lines of the mountains in the distance, Takahashi couldn't help clenching his fists!
Going to sea this time, as long as he can find a new territory with the army, even if he can't reach America, but as long as he finds it, even a small island, he, a foreigner, can become a Tang native!
If he can find America, he can not only become a Tang man, but also become an official!
In this way, the wife who followed him to Datang would not have to work so hard!He can even take over his younger brothers and sisters from his hometown in Dongying to enjoy the prosperity of this prosperous age!
As for Japan?
Ha ha!

Takahashi had a sneer on his face!

What is there to be obsessed with in a country that treats its people like dogs?
If he wants to become a Tang man, he must become a Tang man!He never wanted to go back to that damn place in Dongying!

I was thinking about it, but suddenly I heard my boss say: "Mr. Takahashi, do you want to take a risk?"

"kindness?"

Takahashi froze for a moment, a rare expression appeared on his serious and rigid face, and he looked at Zhang Chunrui with confusion.

Zhang Chunrui smiled and said: "At first I wanted to follow the army to places I had never been to, but I didn't dare to risk my life around the Cape of Good Hope. According to the notice, there are murderous waves at the Cape of Good Hope, which is very dangerous... But I have been thinking about it these days, and I immediately seek fame, but I am not willing to stop at the status of a merchant. Now the court is merciful..."

Zhang Chunrui looked at Gao Qiao, put away his smile, and asked, "Mr. Gao Qiao, would you like me to fight for birth together?"
