"Let's go and have a look." Li Yi shook his head and felt that he was being too sentimental. Why did he have to guess so much? Let's go and have a look.
"Oh!" Princess Yongmu didn't care. She would go wherever Li Yi said.
She turned around and muttered, "Missing my husband makes me grow old. Time is suddenly late. Giving up donations and not returning, working hard to eat more food. Did that man stay somewhere else and not go back, or never go back? "
"Rich people think about things. Would a poor woman write poems?" Li Yi looked at the monotonous sea outside the window and said.
"That's true. But what did the man do?" Princess Yongmu began to struggle with another question.
"A wanderer, of course, went out for a trip, similar to Meng Haoran and Wang Wei. At that time, the world was peaceful and prosperous. "Li Yi continued to look at the sea outside the window.
"Ah?" Princess Yongmu and Xiao Lan exclaimed at the same time. Then, the two of them reached out to touch Li Yi's forehead.
"What?" Li Yi was very puzzled by the two hands on his forehead.
"Nothing." The two of them shook their heads tacitly, with suspicion in their eyes.
"Li Lang, do you still remember the first time you met him?" After a dozen breaths, Princess Yongmu couldn't help but ask.
"At that time, the world was in turmoil and the court was unstable. The man wanted to go out and try his luck. Maybe he would be put in an important position by someone."
Li Yi saw a few seabirds and understood the meaning of Princess Yongmu's question.
"It's Li Lang." Xiao Lan patted her chest and felt relieved.
"Yes!" Princess Yongmu smiled.
"Our team from the Tang dynasty must go to the Hawaiian Islands. No matter how we go down there, we can't go directly to the place where we first got the corn."
Li Yi estimated the route of his team. Unless something special happened, the overall route couldn't be changed.
Princess Yongmu nodded gently. "I know, so we have to go to that aunt's island."
"No, let's go from below. They can't speed up, so let's just ask one of them.
The fleet is so big. As long as we pass by an island and they follow us, the people on the island will provide us with information.
We can't wait for them. It's a pity that we don't have satellites and positioning systems. Otherwise, we would know their exact location at any time. "
Li Yi felt regretful. Searching for a fleet of ships in the ocean, if they didn't have a fixed route, was simply asking for their lives.
Satellites and positioning, he was just talking about it.
"Take it slow. A telegram that can transmit signals over a long distance is also fine." Li Yi settled for the next best thing, a telegram.
As long as the power was high enough, crossing the Pacific Ocean was not a problem.
"If we bring back good crop seeds, how are other places going to stop us?"
Princess Yongmu didn't want Li Yi to think about something he couldn't do for the time being, so she changed the topic.
Li Yi shook his head. "There's no way to stop it, and there's no need to stop it. If they take it and plant it, perhaps they'll be able to cultivate a new breed that can increase production and resist pests and diseases."
"Yes, let's take it back. It's like new indica rice. The taste is a little worse, so we plant it several times a year."
Xiao Lan had eaten indica rice before. It didn't taste good, had no tendons, and the sunlight was too short.
Li Yi made it into rice noodles, which was better than steamed rice. He added a little vinegar, chili oil, fried beans, and a few pieces of green vegetables.
"Li Lang, how long will it take before we arrive?" Princess Yongmu went to get tea and asked when she came back.
The yacht had brought black and green tea to deal with all kinds of situations, supplement vitamins, and resist diseases.
Li Yi didn't bring the herbs as he didn't need them. He had other herbs, and the yacht didn't lack fruits, vegetables, and meat.
"More than 30 hours. The wind is right, and the danger is small." Li Yi didn't have a good solution. The yacht's speed was already very fast.
99% of his yacht's speed was not as fast as the yacht now, and there weren't many crazy people who would drive his yacht across the Pacific Ocean.
"I want to eat shrimp balls in a casserole and drink cold beer. Let's eat tofu with shrimp balls and add some vegetables. "
Princess Yongmu was bored and not in a good mood. It was mainly because her period had come.
"Since you can't drink cold beer, let's drink room temperature yellow wine. There are ready-made frozen prawns, and I'll make them into a casserole with mutton. The main dish will be date cakes. Xiao Lan too. "
Li Yi understood the situation. Wine shouldn't be drunk, as it could easily increase blood loss. Chilled wine was even worse.
"Okay!" Princess Yongmu agreed. She didn't actually care about what to eat and was just acting coquettishly.
Therefore, everyone ate the same thing for lunch. Li Yi made the food himself, relying on the equipment.
The seabirds resting on the yacht ate the prawn heads, tails, and shells for free. They even left behind a gift on the deck, the kind that used fertilizer.
… …
"It's better if we don't have a sea map. It's too far." When the yacht was about to reach Easter Island, Ruan Jin's team was sailing on the sea.
The distance was marked on the sea map with many lines, including the approximate wind direction, ocean currents, and submerged reefs.
Without looking at the sea map, it was guaranteed that people would die. It would be considered impressive if half of the 40 ships returned.
Looking at the map, he realized that he had only traveled a short distance.
Therefore, the official who spoke the most stared at it for a while and complained.
"Can't you be more proactive? If you really can't, just transfer the ships. "Ruan Jin was annoyed.
"When we go back, we'll make a great contribution and leave our names in history. I'll be the first to go out to sea and find important crop seeds for the Tang dynasty."
The official instantly became proactive and thought positively.
"Right!" Ruan Jin didn't want to attack the other party. You? You're just a small character. What does that have to do with you?
"There are others. When we successfully reach the place and return alive … Wu wu wu!"
"If you don't know how to speak, then don't speak. Otherwise, I'll throw you off." Ruan Jin was frightened and covered the official's mouth out of reflex.
"Wu wu!" The official nodded.
"Who knows, we might meet Li Dongzhu." Liu Tingguang glared at the official and made up his mind to impeach him.
"The people on the islands all look similar. The sea is vast and boundless. It'll be difficult to find a ship!" Ruan Jin released his hand.
The official gasped for breath. "I'll say something. I've discovered that it's more convenient to fish on large ships. When we get back, I'll tell His Majesty to build more ships.
The commoners lack meat, so we can catch more fish and make them into dried fish. As long as there's enough and the price is cheap, we can transport them to the Shu Lands. "
"We're making them, and you're telling us? Alright! Go back and submit a report. "Ruan Jin truly didn't want to attack the other party.
"Li Dongzhu has already thought of it, right?" The official was slightly disappointed. It wasn't easy for him to think of it.
"Think about it some more and discuss it with the other officials. There's strength in numbers. Eventually, you'll be able to think of something that Dongzhu hasn't considered."
Ruan Jin encouraged him. Otherwise, the official would fall sick from idleness.
"We've discussed it. Prawns are the best. After catching them, we'll boil them with water and add a little salt before drying them. It'll be easier to transport them and the commoners will love to eat them."
Encouraged, the official immediately told his colleagues what he had said.
He wasn't afraid that the other party would covet their contributions. The Winged Knights were trustworthy.
"Alright. When we're about to reach the shore, we'll catch prawns. There's no end to the prawns in the sea." Ruan Jin went along with it. He knew that King Song had long been working on it.
