"Urgent report, get out of the way, urgent report …"
Before the train stopped completely, the Winged Knights jumped down from the train, found the horse on the platform, and rode towards the Li Family Zhuangzi while shouting.
Most of the people stopped, and those who wanted to leave a path in the middle quickly retreated. They watched the man and the horse jump past them in confusion.
"Looks like it's not a small matter."
"Sounds like it."
"The train came back, and I don't see anything broken."
"Maybe the locomotive made it home in the end."
The people naturally discussed and looked at the locomotive with concern, showing a worried expression.
The locomotive was clearly a dead object, but the people always treated it as a living thing.
The locomotive was a big guy that could do hard work. It didn't eat grass, it ate coal, and it drank more water than cows and horses.
The people from the restaurants and restaurants who came to transport goods were all at a loss. Was there one today?
"Unload the goods and estimate the price." The other people in charge of loading and unloading found the person on the locomotive and asked, then turned around and shouted.
Those who wanted to buy things quickly stood in place. The big restaurants stood around the big bucket, and the small restaurants looked at the small bucket.
They began to scoop out fish and shrimp. Some were alive, some were dead, and the sizes were different.
When it was time to load, the person who estimated the price shouted, "1,600 yuan, anyone wants it?"
If someone wanted it, they raised their hand. If someone wanted it, they could shout, "Add 20 yuan."
No one wanted it. This bucket was taken away and sent to the Li Family Zhuangzi to eat. The Li Family Zhuangzi would eat the dead ones first, and the live ones would be oxygenated.
In the south of the city or at the bridgehead, if someone wanted to eat fresh ones, they would say in advance. The raised ones would be sent over and dealt with in person.
After a few days, they would sell crabs in another way.
When the crabs were caught, the claws would be tied with a rope and placed in a big mesh sack.
Through the gap, one could see the situation. The price was fixed, and whoever chose which sack would weigh it.
The size and freshness of the crabs were judged by oneself. When they returned, they would put them in the sink and step on them to give them oxygen.
There was no way to look at a fish or crab individually. Wholesale was the same in Li Yi.
The wholesale price of seafood was less than half of the retail price, leaving enough profit margin.
… …
"Reporting ~ ~ ~ The team that went out to sea has arrived in Haizhou. The people and the ship are all there."
The messenger ran to the bridgehead with the things, and rode his horse across the bridge.
After hearing this, the people selling things at the bridgehead and the soldiers guarding the bridge cheered in different ways.
When the Tang dynasty's navy set out, everyone knew that this voyage was tens of thousands of li away. The sea was stormy and there was only a slim chance of survival.
For the sake of the Tang dynasty, the soldiers searched for things that could make the people rich.
Li Dongzhu also went out and returned first with the seeds and blood corals.
He wondered how many good things these Ping An soldiers had on their ships.
The messenger shouted as he urged his horse forward. By the time he arrived at Li Longji's courtyard, a group of people were already waiting for him.
There was a phone at the bridgehead, and it was faster than him.
"Your Majesty, Li Dongzhu, Ruan Jin, and the others have returned. I saw them in Ocean Region. The letter they wrote wasn't sealed."
The Winged Knights took out two letters, one for Li Longji and the other for Li Yi, and asked them to read it first.
Li Yi read it quickly and understood the situation at a glance. When Li Longji finished reading it, he handed it over and exchanged it with him.
After a glance, he passed the letter to Bi Goo, who was waiting at the side.
The large cloth with names and handprints unfolded, proving that all the sailors had returned home safely.
Bi Goo read it, then held the letter in his hand and looked up at the sky. "Good, good! Fierce wind and heavy rain, fearful of danger, brave battle, strong will. Thousands of islands in the sea, the Heaven and Earth Lock hangs three yuan. Steam and fog need no oars, silk and hemp can be used as sails. The fleet set out to proclaim the country, and returned happily and safely. Ah! Carefree, truly carefree! "
Bi Goo continued to read the sky. Song Jing, who was beside him, reached out to read the letter. In the end, he saw Bi Goo expressing his emotions and looked depressed. Give me the letter first!
Li Longji passed the one in his hand to Song Jing to read it first.
Song Jing read it and passed it down. Zhang Jiuling went to Bi Goo and took the letter.
When everyone finished reading it, they all revealed happy smiles. The ships didn't matter, as long as the people returned.
Who would have thought that these people didn't abandon a single ship when they went out? They all came back.
"Xiao Yi, this old man is in a good mood and would like to invite the governor to a banquet. Please arrange it." Bi Goo said to Li Yi with a smile.
"The Ministry of Revenue will pay?" Li Yi was even happier, but he wasn't crazy.
"You're not happy? You invite them for this old man. "Bi Goo shook his head. How could the Ministry of Revenue have the money!
"Do you want me to give amnesty to the people? See what they bring back. If it's good, I'll treat … the people of the governor to a bowl of noodles. "
Li Yi glanced at Bi Goo and prepared to look at the items. If it was valuable, he would throw caution to the wind.
The governor's office now had a permanent population of more than three million people.
He was too busy in Zhuangzi and had to hire people to buy handmade noodles in large quantities. The sauce would be stir-fried in Zhuangzi and then sent to various places.
He didn't have much money, but 10,000 yuan was enough.
Bi Goo looked around and was quite pleased with himself. Did this mean that he had some face? If he asked Xiao Yi to treat, Xiao Yi would treat.
No one paid attention to him. Everyone was happy.
"How are we going to celebrate?" Su Yi asked Song Jing.
"At Hanyuan Palace Hall. When the soldiers arrive at Chang 'an, we will rest for two days and hold a court meeting. As an offering to the ancestors. "
Song Jing decided to do something big. The overseas trip was not just a trip.
There were many indigenous people there, and some of them were already willing to join the Tang dynasty. The sick children Li Yi brought back were studying hard.
In the future, the territory of the Tang dynasty would belong to them. They had to tell their ancestors about the expansion of the territory.
"It's a good opportunity to let the foreigners know the strength of the Tang dynasty's navy."
Zhang Jiuling said as he looked to the side. He didn't see Princess Jincheng.
He remembered that he didn't call her.
He couldn't call Princess Jincheng every time there was a court meeting. He was not an important minister.
"Brother Yi, are you going?" Li Longji wanted to drag Li Yi to Hanyuan Palace Hall again.
"No, it's tiring to stand. The weather is hot. I'll rest in Zhuangzi." Li Yi refused.
"I'll arrange a seat for you. You've contributed a lot. If it weren't for you, the Tang dynasty wouldn't have sent a fleet." Li Longji immediately gave him benefits.
"Okay, I'll think about becoming an official. Their 40 ships must be loaded with a lot of things. The seeds are not worth much. "
Li Yi agreed. Last time, his legs were numb from standing.
This time, he brought the things himself. He ate cold drinks while watching.
"What are we eating at noon? What time is it? "Bi Goo looked outside and estimated the time.
Li Yi turned to look at the clock on the wall. "It's only 7: 42. Didn't you all have breakfast? The court matters are more important. "
"There are still things to do in the government hall." Zhang Jiuling didn't want to waste time. There were still nearly three hours before noon.
Everyone else left. Bi Goo was the last to leave. Before leaving, he said to Li Yi, "Anyway, we can't eat noodles. It's a happy day."
"Cold noodles, cold noodle soup with ice." Li Yi nodded.
"Not eating!" Bi Gou flicked his sleeves and left.
"Li Lang, what do you want to eat? I don't want to eat cold noodles either. "
Princess Yongmu wanted to go to Sweet Fragrance Pavilion, but now she changed her mind and sent someone to open it.
"Call them later to improve efficiency. Eat skewers later and drink cold beer. The children don't have to go to school in the afternoon. It's too hot."
Li Yi wanted to celebrate. No one died. Was there anything happier than this?
