At noon, it became lively again. More than four thousand people from the southwest arrived, including the three hundred soldiers from Zhe Chong.
Everyone took a bath, washed their clothes, and ate happily.
The stewed fish and prawns were ingredients bought from the fishermen.
Large ships were hired one after another. They waited at the side and chartered the ships.
The local people bought extra dried vegetables, fish, and prawns and sent them to the ships.
At night, they continued to eat barbecue, but the people were not as excited as yesterday.
They sensed that Li Yi was leaving. Happy moments were always short-lived.
When they were almost done eating and it was time for the commoners to form groups to go home, the commoners lined up.
"Go back, it's late." Li Yi used the ship's loudspeaker to shout. The people did not move. If they went back, they would not see him tomorrow.
"Then we'll get on the ship! In the future, I'll bring His Majesty to see everyone. Maybe next year. "
Li Yi was helpless. The people were not stupid.
"Li Dongzhu, when our days are better, we'll make delicious food and send it to you." Someone stretched his neck.
Li Yi did not use the loudspeaker. He shouted back, "Okay! Li Family Zhuangzi will send a farmer to stay at Guxuan's house. If anyone doesn't work hard, I won't accept their gifts. "
"There's a farmer here? That's great! "
"Li Dongzhu, don't worry and go!"
"Li Dongzhu, have a safe trip."
The people were happy in their sadness. Li Family Zhuangzi had sent people here. If there was anything, they could look for them.
The southwest barbarians slowly boarded the ships. The yachts set off first. The yachts needed to go to the Zhoushan Islands to fish for seafood. The other ships went directly to the canal.
The people sang a local tune to send their blessings to Li Yi. Their voices rose and fell with the waves of the Yangtze River.
Countless drones flashed and rose into the sky, forming words in the sky: Yuzhou's river water is clear, just like the mood of the people. The surging waves are hard to calm down, the songs are long and the stars are intertwined.
The colors of the words changed. The people looked at the sky. As they looked, the stars in the sky suddenly turned into specks of light and floated away.
The people waited for the drones to disappear before they realized that the cruiser had already left.
"So it's something that can fly. It's not the stars!"
"The stars are too far away. Dongzhu is closer to us."
"Let's go! Go back and wait for the farmers to arrive. Ask them what they need. "
"With the village owner around, I'm not afraid of others deducting my wages."
"Yes! Not even the Fang Clan. "
Fang Ao: "…"
When have I ever deducted your wages? I'll pay for the road repairs. Once the road is repaired, we'll leave together.
On the yacht, Gu Xuan's family was arranged to rest in a large suite. His parents shared a room, his two sons shared a room, and he and his wife shared a room.
There were bathtubs and toilets in each of the three rooms, so they wouldn't disturb each other.
Gu Xuan was fiddling with a pair of swimming goggles in his hand. The more he looked at them, the more he liked them. When he opened his eyes in the murky water, he had to apply oil first. It was uncomfortable, and his vision was blurry.
The goggles were slightly thicker than the ears, and there was a battery inside. Once the switch was turned on, the goggles would shine a light.
"Gu Lang, you don't need the flippers?" Gu Xuan's wife was from a minority group. She was pretty and her name was Tashi Na.
Now that she was married to Gu Xuan, her name became Guzhaxina and she followed her husband's surname.
Gu Xuan saved his father-in-law in the river in exchange for his wife. His wife had a lot of dowry.
It could be used to buy property and support the family.
It was just that he had never used it. Gu Xuan was good at making money.
He fished more than others, and ferried faster than others. Although most of the time, he didn't collect money.
Saving people and retrieving corpses were the biggest part. Saving people had benefits, and retrieving corpses was usually called by others.
When corpses were in the water for a long time, they would be entangled by water plants. They would spoil when touched, so cloth and nets were needed.
Usually, at this time, other people wouldn't be willing to go down to retrieve corpses. It was too dangerous.
His family was rich, and now he wanted to learn more advanced techniques to help the imperial court retrieve people.
Guzhaxina held the flippers in her hand and felt that it was very interesting.
"It's a hindrance. It's not flexible on the feet, and the same goes for the flippers. Ear plugs and nose clips are useless. The mirror and light are good. I need to familiarize myself with the suction bottle on the mouth first. "
Gu Xuan was like a child who got a new toy. He admired Li Yi to the extreme. He could actually make such a good thing.
If he had the same mirror in the past, there would be two people who fell into the water. It wouldn't take so long to find them and they wouldn't die.
It was raining heavily that night. The river was fast and murky, and the light on the boat couldn't shine down.
If there was this magical object at that time, it could shine by itself and was not afraid of sand touching the eyes. He could definitely save the people quickly.
Gu Xuan only thought about this tool. He never considered whether he was in danger in such a river. He was used to it. He swam like a whirlpool.
Just like a whirlpool, it was not difficult to find an opportunity to come out.
Guzhaxina nodded. She used to worry about it, but then she found that her man was a fish in the water.
She touched her belly. "Gu Lang, what if it's still a boy?"
She frowned slightly. She wanted a daughter. She had both a son and a daughter!
"Ask Li Dongzhu tomorrow. He has magical medical skills."
Gu Xuan had no other way. He put down the things and took his wife to take a bath and have a good sleep.
"Li Dongzhu, the cruiser is good. It's comfortable to be on it."
Zhou Gang went with Li Yi. It didn't matter whether he was in the team or not.
"Yes!" Li Yi drank beer. It was not a cruiser now. How could a yacht not be comfortable?
It was a waste to exchange for a cruiser. What would a cruiser be used for?
It was said to be a cruiser for the sake of sounding good. It was a cruiser on behalf of the sky.
If it was really needed, it would be a destroyer.
It was a pity that he didn't know how to use it. He could only let the system operate it.
Hit other people's boats with that thing? Or hit people who jumped into the water and hit the bottom of the boat? Launch missiles at the enemy's port and deeper inland?
"Li Dongzhu, the wine is good and cool!" Zhou Gang drank a small mouthful of cold beer. He didn't dare to drink too much for fear of getting drunk.
"After the New Year, you can go back to Luoyang. I will prepare things and send them to your place.
There are a total of five thousand people in the southwest. You have done a great job.
Don't worry about toilet water, malaria pills, soap, medical alcohol and other supplies. "
Li Yi wanted Zhou Gang and a group of people to stay for the New Year. They worked hard in the local area.
"When the delivery team comes back, they will bring the skin. We always train and have a lot of prey."
Zhou Gang nodded. He was a senior official, not a provincial governor. The local area could operate normally without him.
"You are so diligent in training. Do the local people have a good life?" Li Yi picked up a skewer of lamb kidney and took a bite.
"Every family has meat to eat. There is too much prey. We can't finish it.
We saved a lot of jerky with the local people. The people go into the mountains and wander around nearby.
Yes, the people who deliver the things remember to mention the medicinal herbs on their return journey. The people pick the herbs and don't sell them.
Those that can be used will be put in the medicine shop. The rest will be saved and sent to you.
I am worried that when we reach Luoyang, the ministers will be unhappy. You have to support us! "
Zhou Gang briefly explained the situation in his place. In the past, the people had a bad life, including their home.
Entering the jungle was dangerous. They were not afraid of poisonous snakes and beasts. Insects, mosquitoes, and miasma were unbearable.
When there were various drugs, everything changed.
