The sky is blue and the sea is blue, and groups of seagulls are chasing the sea boat. The sea breeze blows across the deck, bringing a slightly salty sea breeze, which makes people feel refreshed.

Standing at the bow of the boat and looking into the distance, the sea and the sky are all in all colors, boundless and boundless. It makes people feel the vastness of the world, and the slimness of people naturally rises in their hearts. Many feelings.

Because he left the mainland, he got rid of the rules, was silent and barefoot, wearing a wide robe with no tie, and a black long flying in the wind, coupled with his indifferent and outspoken expression, it made people feel that he was just about to hold a flute and a concubine with a palm fan in his hand, and then she could become an immortal.

Zaberro stood behind him and looked at the young Ming Dynasty. Although he had not spent much time together, the gentle temperament of the Qingren, elegant and abandoned his wisdom, and that exciting and great speech made this knowledgeable European priest feel deeply uneasy. Although he was knowledgeable and had contact with many outstanding figures, none of them could have such a demeanor at such a young age.

"It's really like the Son of the Holy Son when he was young," Zaberu said in a random thought: "Maybe he is the Son of the East."

Silence never turned back. He was immersed in his thoughts, and humans moved from ignorance to civilization. After thousands of years of long years, in this process, many civilizations have alternately rise and fall and turned into the dust of history. Only the Chinese civilization, although it has encountered ups and downs, has always remained at the forefront of the world. It has been the leader in the past two thousand years and has always been admired by the world, proud and proud.

But now, the history of all mankind has reached a turning point. The ocean age has arrived. It will change everything in the past, strength and weakness will be reshuffled, and the advantages and disadvantages will be redefined. In this process, a once weak country may take advantage of the momentum to dominate the world, and a once powerful country may become fish and sink. This is an era of great navigation where no matter how brilliant your history is, it only depends on whether you have the determination to go deep into the ocean and whether you have the ability to win maritime hegemony!

Unfortunately, in the history of Shen Mo's previous life, China did not do well. Although after Longqing opened the sea, the Ming Dynasty had participated in maritime trade and earned a steady stream of huge wealth, these wealth was not enjoyed by the central government, which made the country lack interest in maritime trade, and even restricted it from time to time. In the Qing Dynasty, foreign rulers never regarded the Han people as the same kind as themselves, and they would have different ideas of not being our race. They asked them to go to sea to see the Han people escaping their own rule and dominating them to implement the strict maritime ban. From then on, they were closed to the country, and were completely left behind by the world. Finally, they created an unprecedented history of humiliation and destruction in China.

Is it really hopeless? Chen Si doesn't think so. At least during the Jiajing period of the Ming Dynasty, the Ming Dynasty was still open-minded and confident, and still had infinite hope! This is also the psychological pillar that Chen Si can always struggle. Just as the uncle Tang Shun said: "If you know you can't do it, you are not the behavior that a mature politician should have. What you have to do must be possible."

Is it possible? Yes!

In fact, China's sailing has always been ahead of the world. The Song Dynasty could travel across the ocean and reach the Persian Gulf to earn endless wealth. In the early years of this dynasty, it could also build giant ships more than 40 meters long. It formed a special mixed fleet of 2300 warships and 20,000 to 30,000 troops, no matter where it sailed. The Ming fleet led by Zheng He was the only powerful and unchallenging force at that time. In other words, when Zheng He was mingling on the ocean, Columbus and Magellan were all nurturing in his grandma's belly; when the Ming fleet showed off his power at the sea, what were the coachmans on the sea, the invincible fleets, or the trees in the forest.

Although in the eighth year of Xuande, in the year of Di, in the dysfunction of the Eastern Ocean, after Zheng He returned from his last voyage to the West, the fleet never had cobalt, and official documents such as Zheng He's navigation chart were also burned by Liu Daxia, the then Minister of War. The Ming Dynasty's navy declined, but its level was still above the level, and no one dared to provoke it at sea. Don't you see the hunchbacks so arrogant, but never dared to fight with the Ming army at sea. In Spain, the Folangji people traveled across the oceans, but had to do business with the Ming Dynasty obediently. This was the weakest Shi Hai, the Ming Navy.

"My Chinese civilization started from the Three Sovereigns and Five Emperors, rose all the way to Zhaoji, and then gradually declined to this day. When I was sailing against the current, I would retreat if I didn't advance. If I didn't recover, I would definitely fall behind the Taixi powers.

Haven't you seen the Western warships sailing all over the world, artillery, shipbuilding, and sailing, all of which are beyond the reach of our Ming Dynasty. If you still don't wake up, our Ming Dynasty will be all for other lands, and the coastal areas will be rich, and it will be turned into scorched earth. Without a powerful navy, you will be bullied, and without a powerful navy, you will be plundered. How can I, Chinese men, tolerate our ancestors' dirty faces and our wives and children's humiliation? At this time, to inspire the Ming Dynasty and reshape the power of the Han and Tang Dynasties, you will surely rise from the ocean! ". During the sailing of the sea, he silently wrote the opening of "Ocean Age". With the ups and downs of waves, his heart surging and his thoughts flew, and he was conceiving the path to the Ming Dynasty toward the ocean. Although this road is doomed to be difficult and likely to fail, he still resolutely stepped forward, even if he went down, he had to face the ocean. Even if he became a sinner for the ages, he had to drag this land nation into the water!!

He strengthened his will and his silent expression became firm. He learned in detail about the naval level and colonial conditions of the European countries. It turned out that at this time, Prince Enrique, who started the Age of Discovery, had passed away. If he were not afraid of me, he would have come to my boat to discuss six years ago. "Oh, okay." Seeing that the adults were so determined, Sanchi had to agree and climb up the ladder first.

Seeing that he successfully boarded the big ship, Chen Si held the ladder with both hands, took a deep breath, and sighed inwardly, "I have a fear of heights." He gritted his teeth and climbed up, not daring to look down at all, because just one glance, he would inevitably lose his hands and feet and fall down directly. If he had bad luck, he would fall into the sea.

Fortunately, his judgment was correct. No one dared to make trouble for him. Qi Mo still boarded the boat smoothly. When his feet landed on the deck, he felt a little weak and almost soft. Sanqi hurried forward to help him. However, he refused. He stood silently on the railing for a while before he could walk as usual. He said to the people who looked like leaders who came to greet him: "I'll make you laugh."

Even though the few people were laughing in their hearts, they still said respectfully: "Please go upstairs with a distinguished guest. My godfather has set up a banquet to welcome you.

Silent nodded and smiled, "Okay, please give me some of you to lead the way."

The group then went up to the top floor. The guards along the way glared and kept hitting the back of the knife, making a trembling sound. Several people thought to themselves that they would have weak legs when climbing a soft ladder. Wouldn't this just scare the soul?

But fear of heights and courage are not necessarily related. Silence directly ignores those unfriendly actions, chats and laughs with the people who greet him, and goes up to the top floor. I saw that the place is very vigilant and idle people are not allowed to enter. The noise naturally disappears.

After inviting him into the room, the few people also surrendered. Before going out, they said to Sanchi: "Brother, let's go down and have a drink.

Sanchi said without saying a word, and said silently: "Don't worry about me, go." Then he nodded and followed the group down.

There was only one silent left in the room. He looked at the cabin, Japanese tatami, Chinese coral screens, Western clocks, Persian tapestries, and even large sections of wood carvings from South America, fully demonstrating the owner's identity and wood carvings.

He was watching, a hearty laughter came from behind the screen, and then a short old man in a Confucian robe appeared in front of Shen Mo. If he had not seen his portrait, Guan Mo would even doubt that this old man with a weak appearance and a white beard would be Wang Zhi, an old ship owner who was scattered all over the world and was trembling in the southeast.

Wang Zhi was also looking at the silence, and was also extremely surprised in his heart. Although he had known the age of silence, he was still extremely surprised when he saw him. He could not have thought that the great man who made great things with far-reaching influence was so young.

The feeling in his heart did not affect the movements of the two. He bowed politely and said, "Are you an old ship owner?"

"It was Wang Zhi who smiled and said with a polite voice, his accent was very similar to that of Hu Zongxian.

"I have long admired the old ship owner's name and finally met today. It's really better to meet than to be famous."

"Each of each other." Wang Zhiruo sat down silently and said, "I admire Lord Shen's reputation even more. It's true that since ancient times, heroes have emerged as young people, and the Yangtze River has pushed the previous waves."

Hearing his predecessors regard themselves, he knew that he felt too young in silence, he smiled and said, "Old ship owner, we have been in a divine relationship for a long time. Through Brother Haifeng, we have had many conversations, so we should have some understanding of each other. You shouldn't think that I am a younger generation, so you have prejudices."

"Of course not. Lord Shen is famous and I admire him very much." Wang Zhi laughed and said, "Let's talk while eating." As he said that, two graceful kimono women came in from outside and lined up the exquisitely styled utensils in front of the two of them. After a moment of silence, it turned out that the old ship owner was treating guests to Japanese cuisine.

Under the service of the kimono woman, the two of them cleaned their hands. Wang Zhi smiled and said, "When people are old, they prefer lightness. They actually fell in love with Japanese delicacies. Although they originated from China, they have many unique and exquisite features. So this time, they specially invited the most famous Kazuo chef in Kyoto to make Kaiseki cuisine for Lord Shen."

Chen Si nodded and smiled, "Let's understand." The first one to serve was "pay first", that is, the appetizer. It was a small and exquisite square dish with yam soup. It was placed on a green disk and poured with a layer of special mile-shaped sauce on it. It looked very delicate and made people unable to bear to eat it. There was a small pile of green mustard next to it. Wang Zhi thought he didn't know what it was, so he introduced: "This thing needs to be eaten in this." As he said that, he concealed the silence, and showed an exaggerated expression of admiration on his face and said, "It's really delicious.

"In fact, it was spicy by mustard, and he cursed in his heart: "Those chefs, let you make the mustard more spicy, it won't be so spicy, right?" But he was even more expectant about the silence.

, stone

Nodded silently, and after a little glance, Wang Zhi encouraged him again: "Dip more, it will taste delicious if you dip more.

Silence dipped the square green as he said. Then he slowly put it into his mouth.

I’m sorry for the monk who is going to take wedding photos this week., Door, Da Gama has opened a new route to India in Western Europe. Columbus has appeared in Cheshixian. Magellan’s global voyage has been completed. All these great names have passed away. In exchange for the Franciscans colonize and plunder in Africa, western India, and the Spanish are plundering in South America.

So the second of the ocean is still the world of Spain and Francis. As for the future powers, Queen Elizabeth I of England has just ascended the throne. She still can't figure out where the future is, and she even hates those dirty and sinful pirates. The Netherlands Revolution is brewing and the Netherlands has not yet been born. The French Emperor Henry IX has just ascended the throne, and his strong and ambitious mother Catherine will put the country in twenty years of civil strife. Overall, the three British, Dutch and France are still in a state of soy sauce, not much higher than the Ming Dynasty.

Compare.,       

After figuring out these things, he became anxious and eager to urge the Ming Dynasty to catch up and must not miss the second wave of the market.

On the second day of the voyage at sea, Chen Si was having dinner with Zappelou. San Chi handed him a color at the door, nodded with understanding, and said, "Today, the bird faded out of my mouth and brought my bottle of treasured wine."

Sanchi then brought up a delicate wine bottle, opened the lid and wafted out the fragrant wine fragrance, which made Shabuluo secretly twitch his nose and took the wine bottle silently. He suddenly remembered something and asked, "I forgot to ask. Can I drink wine in missionary work?"

Zabu smiled and said, "As long as you don't do anything that affects the image of the clergy, you'll be fine if you don't drink or drink." As he said, he explained, "Actually, I didn't drink alcohol, but I'll travel at sea all year round and don't drink a little."

"Drinking a little wine will be good for joints." Xiaoxiao, who knew silently, poured a glass of Shabuli and said: "This was given to me by the Governor of the Southeast. There is only this bottle left, let's drink it."

Zabulu said happily, "Then you're welcome." So the two of them had a drink after a while, Zabulu became drunk and vomited, "How come my alcohol tolerance has become smaller?"

Silent smiled and said, "It's because this wine is so good."

"Oh," Zappelou nodded, then fell on the table in a blazing manner, and fell asleep.

Chen Si called him twice, but when he saw that there was no reaction, he nodded to Sanqi. Sanqi then stepped forward, helped Zabulu up, and carried him to the bottom of the bilge with another guard.

After a while, Sanqi came back and asked silently: "Is it okay?"

"Don't worry, sir, this is the thousand-day drunkenness left by Mr. Li." Sanchi patted his chest and said, "Although it's too little, it's okay to sleep for two or three days."

"I asked him that he was okay?" said silently.

"It's okay" Sanchi smiled and said, "Did you forget it? You also drank it back then. The amount of time Dr. Li gave me was much more than this time."

"That's OK." Silent nodded and said seriously: "Are they here?"

"I have already picked up their outpost ship," Sanchi said: "That guy is elusive and I don't know when it will appear."

"Haha, what should be coming will always come."

"But they asked, to talk to their boat, and said that our boat was too small and not as spacious as theirs."

"It's the same wherever you go." Chen Si said without caring: "This vast ocean is his world. If you want to deal with me, it's the same wherever you want to deal with me." He said softly and ordered: "Help me change my clothes."

"Yes." Sanchi quickly helped Chen Mo comb his hair and put on his shoes, put on a well-tailored cloth robe, and covered his head with black gauze. Chen Mo sighed softly: "I feel all the pressure back to my body."

Sanchi chuckled softly, "Sir, he should be the one who is under pressure. Even if the negotiation cannot be reached, we will not lose."

Chen Si shook his head and said lightly: "You don't understand."

After waiting for a long time, I saw a giant runner appearing at the place where the sea and the sky meet. The closer the distance, the bigger the big ship appears. When approaching the silent double-decker sea boat, it is like a mountain pressing over. I have to hold my head up to see the lower deck of the house. As for the above layers, I can't see it at all. I'm afraid it's smaller than Zheng He's treasure boat, and it feels full of oppression. Looking at the boat, each floor is full of strong men holding weapons, brightly dressed and neatly lined up. This boat can cost at least two thousand people.

Silent shook his head, and there were less than thirty guards on his boat, and he didn't know what the other party had to do with so many people.

While thinking about it, he heard three cannons on the boat, followed by a whimpering horn, and then the men on the boat shouted together, which made his ears buzzing. He thought to himself, what are you doing? Give me a warning?

After the gongs and drums passed, I heard someone on the boat shouting: "Please board the boat with a distinguished guest!" and then put down the ladder.

But when I saw the three-foot-high software, I was in trouble. This thing was swaying on the sea. How could the adults crawl? What if I accidentally stepped on the air or climbed up and did the person on it to make trouble?

At this hesitant moment, he shouted again: "Please board the ship with a distinguished guest!"

"Go up." Chen Si said lightly: "Aren't you just climbing a ladder? I'm so old that I can't get up."

"Kefang, what should they do if they are Jiaba?" Sanchi was embarrassed.
Chapter completed!
