"Thirty...ships?"
When he heard this number, Ma Laoliu's face suddenly fell. His expression was like a dead mother!
"Master Marquis, is thirty a little too little? Can you add more?"
"Not enough?" Xiao Han twitched the corner of his mouth, then he didn't even look at Ma Laoliu's donkey face, he just rubbed his hands and walked towards the cabin.
Not to mention, although the sun is not small today, it is still quite cold when the wind blows from the sea...
"Huh? Huh?" Behind him, Ma Laoliu became anxious when he saw Xiao Han leaving so happily and didn't even bother to say anything.
In fact, he also knows: one thousand guan of money can buy thirty ships, which is a lot! However, thinking about the upcoming shipping trend! As well as the ships under his hands, Ma Laoliu couldn't help but shouted from behind:
"Master Marquis? Master Marquis? How about fifty? Forty? It's really not possible, thirty-five is fine! OK, OK! Thirty is thirty! But you keep your word, I have to choose first..."
After Ma Laoliu finished speaking, Xiao Han had already walked into the cabin. He said nothing from the beginning to the end, which made Ma Laoliu feel anxious. If he had known better, he would have agreed directly from the beginning! Not to mention that I have not taken advantage of it now, and I am not even sure of the starting conditions.
"Hahahahaha..." On the other side, seeing Ma Laoliu deflated and struggling to hold back his laughter, Yang Kailue finally couldn't help but burst out laughing, almost rolling on the ground!
"Damn you, fat man! You're still laughing! It wasn't you who came up with the bad idea at that time! I said why didn't you buy it? It turns out you were just holding back your bad idea!"
"Ahem, donkey! Are you a dog? You bite everyone you see? I kindly showed you a way to get rich, but you were greedy and swallowed the elephant! Now you come back to blame me? Why don't I buy it? I originally ran a shipyard, why did I buy those things? To light a fire?"
"Bullshit! You fat sheep, just wait. Sooner or later, I will boil you, fry you, and skin you alive!"
On the deck, the two of them pointed at each other like cockfighters. As for the others, except for Xiaodong and Lengzi who were watching the excitement, the others had long been accustomed to it and went about their own business.
There was nothing they could do. During this period, in order to provoke the pirates into a fight, they stayed on the ship almost every day. It was already common for the two of them to quarrel. Even without looking at it, they knew that the outcome of the quarrel was that Ma Laoliu couldn't fight with Yang Kailue, and finally started the mode of subduing others with force, performing a donkey riding a sheep (Yang).
On the vast sea, the big ship under Xiao Han rode the wind and waves and sailed towards the outer sea.
On the outer sea, the young master of Xun Mansion was looking at the few small black spots on the sea in the distance with a strange expression. His intuition told him that these small black spots did not appear for no reason. here!
"Hmph, do you think you can keep me here with these few ships?" He looked closely at the few black dots in his sight. When he was sure that they were coming in his direction, the young man sneered again.
In land combat, he admitted that he was not as good as Xiao Han! But on the water war?
In order to monopolize Guangzhou's maritime trade these years, they have fought against merchant ships, warships from other countries, and pirates! In the end, we became the dominant family we are today! In the more than ten years since the founding of the Tang Dynasty, had there been any water wars? Will they fight in water? Can you stand firm on the boat?
"Left rudder! Side sail, let's meet them! By the way, we'll teach them what water fighting is!"
He gave a cold drink, and when he heard the sounds of turning the helm and raising the sail, a hint of madness once again filled the young man's narrow eyes!
yes! I didn’t capture the city of Guangzhou! But so what?
Those people who died on the dock were nothing more than unknown people. I still came and left when I wanted! No one can do anything to me!
Now you want to snipe me at sea? Do you really think you can fight a war just by building a few ships? Then let me show you who is the master of this sea!
"One thousand feet! Eight hundred feet! Five hundred feet! Two hundred feet! Prepare the catapult! Light the oil tank! String the crossbow!"
In my ears, I heard the deep and powerful roar of the general, followed by the creaking sound of the catapult and the bowstring being tightened! With these two terrifying weapons, how many enemies have they defeated? !
"One hundred and fifty feet!"
Time passed quickly, and by the time the man on the mast yelled out this number, the young man could already clearly see the whole picture of the opponent's ship!
There were not many ships coming towards him, only three. But what surprised him was that there were no weapons on the decks of these three ships at all! Except for a few people looking at themselves with something like a bamboo tube, there was nothing that could threaten them.
"Did I guess wrong? Isn't this the person sent by the other party?" This thought had just arisen in the young man's heart. On the other side of the sea, a large ship approaching him suddenly lowered its sails.
Immediately afterwards, in full view of everyone, the entire ship made a sharp turn from facing the enemy from the front to facing the enemy from the side!
This move was so strange that not only the young man was stunned for a moment, but even the captain who was commanding the battle was stunned! It wasn't until the distance between the two parties was less than a hundred feet that the captain in command came back to his senses and immediately looked at the big ship opposite as if he were a fool.
He has been on the sea for so many years, and he has never seen any ship dare to use its most vulnerable side to face the enemy! Isn't it like lighting a lamp in the toilet to seek death?
"Hahaha! We've met a fool! Children, save your kerosene! Use your arrows! Helmsman, you're so damn good for me to aim at, rush over and break it!"
The captain's arrogant laughter sounded, followed by the roar of laughter from other crew members!
Just when everyone opened their eyes in excitement, waiting to see the other person being knocked into two pieces and then crushed into the sea, turning into a wisp of wronged souls at the bottom of the sea, the mutation reappeared!
"Boom boom boom..."
Under the gaze of almost everyone, a series of deafening thunders sounded from the opposite ship! Countless white smoke rose instantly from the sea! Cover the entire ship on the opposite side!
On the boat on this side, the young man opened his eyes wide in horror. Before he had time to think about whether the other side had used magic or whether he had encountered a god, he saw a black iron ball rushing straight towards him! The speed is so fast that it is difficult to catch with the naked eye!
Note: The rudder has been used in the Shang Dynasty, and its shape has gone through several stages of evolution. "Riverside Scene During the Qingming Festival" realistically depicts more than 20 passenger ships, cargo ships, tankers and ferries traveling on the Bianhe River, the capital's canal. It reflects the superb production technology of river ships at that time, and can also see the advanced rudder type that is still in use today. , has been widely used at that time.
