Chapter 3508 Extra 41 that went astray

Longchi Wharf in Qingzhou is now one of the largest wharves in the north. There are merchant ships passing from south to north and west. Naturally, there are also many merchant ships going to the north, south and west, especially those going to the west. That is

Directly out of Dajin, heading to Silla, and further afield...

The maritime trade of Dajin has been developing rapidly in recent years. I heard that a caravan reached as far as a place called Tianfang and brought back a large number of beautiful gems, dates never seen before, and even sweeter sugar.

And something warmer called cotton.

Because Zhou Man likes to collect unseen species, mainly the plants that are best for transportation, merchants who go out to sea like to bring back these unseen seeds for her.

Even if they are out at sea, they don't have the chance to use the full medical treatment. Their family members can also use it, and they can also use it as a favor. If that doesn't work, they can ask for some magic medicine from overseas.

Therefore, during these years of rapid development of sea trade, Zhou Man received a lot of seeds from overseas.

She planted part of it and gave it to Keke for collection, and gave the rest to Zhou Dalang and Zhou Lizhong, who tried planting it. The best thing grown now is cotton. This thing is really good, but the yield is not high.

The best quilts in Beijing now are stuffed with cotton and silk floss, making them softer and warmer.

For this reason, Zhou Man also searched for cotton in the encyclopedia and learned that there will be no shortage of this stuff in the future, so the inclusion points are not high.

The cotton in the future world is very mature. It is whiter and larger than the cotton grown by them, and it is tougher and softer when pulled...

Zhou Man searched for cotton in the mall at that time, but unfortunately he couldn't find anyone selling seeds after searching for a long time. It is said that this is a specialty of a planet. The planet suitable for growing cotton has a direct monopoly on cotton cultivation, and other people's seeds are directly distributed.

Yes, free of charge, no points required.

This thing is not expensive, and people in the alliance who are not short of money will not do this for nothing.

In the end, Zhou Man found a flower shop owner whom he knew well and used several pots of original peonies and chrysanthemums she had here to help him buy some cotton seeds to hang in the shop.

The encyclopedia will never take the initiative to tell her what the world lacks or what more valuable things are available. She needs to discover and think about everything by herself.

What Zhou Man understands is that when the time comes, she will discover it herself.

Now, she wants to look for more opportunities to discover, "When I get overseas, I will walk all the way there. Keke, you will scan all the way. If there is anything that we don't have in Dajin, we will collect it all. Then take a look at the encyclopedia."

Is there something better? If we buy it from the mall, we can avoid many detours."

Keke didn't want to hit the host, but he still had to say: "The host should find a boat to go to sea first."

Zhou Man was full of confidence, "Longchi Pier is now very big, and finding the boat on the sea is not just a matter of swallowing."

She thought it was very simple.

The ship docked at Qingzhou Pier, and Zhou Lang, who had received the news in advance, was waiting to pick them up at the pier.

Seeing them getting off the boat in good spirits, I breathed a sigh of relief and stepped forward and said, "I was worried that you would get seasick."

Bai Shan smiled and said, "I'm really a little dizzy. I've only gotten better in the past two days."

Fortunately for Bai Shan, he had been on the sea before, but it was the first time for Zhou Man and the others to sit on a sea ship for such a long time, and they were a little dizzy.

They have traveled a lot by boat over the years, but there is still a difference between boats in the river and boats in the sea. Boats in the sea are more bumpy.

Going from Yangzhou to Qingzhou is a bit of acclimatization in advance.

When Bai Erlang got off the boat, he felt like he was shaking. He shook his head and said, "I have to go back and take a nap."

Their villa at Longchi Pier has been well maintained, and it's not far away, so you can sleep there.

Zhou Lang knew this kind of shaking feeling very well, so he took them back to rest without saying much.

After years of development, Longchi Wharf has developed into a town that is no less prosperous than Qingzhou Fucheng. At this time, the streets are busy with cars and people, and there are many foreign faces.

Zhou Man and Bai Shan had not been here for many years, and they were both delighted to see the streets they were familiar with become so prosperous.

There used to be many houses built on the hill where there was only one villa. Zhou Lang said: "Thank you for buying all that area. Did you see that now these villas and villas are built against the boundary line where you bought them?"

."

As Longchi Pier became more lively, the price of nearby land increased. Later, the county magistrate divided the land on the mountain into pieces and sold them one by one to fill the gap in the expansion of Longchi Pier.

If it is not a villa for the princess on the mountain, it is worthy of the wealthy gentry and wealthy businessmen to build a villa on the mountain just for Longchi Pier.

Because the villa and other courtyards have been built much more, and the roads on the mountain are also wide and flat, their carriages and horses enter the villas gently.

The servants who stayed in other courtyards had been waiting for them for a long time, and after picking them up, they sent them to their respective courtyards.

Zhou Man first took a shower, washed his hair, and changed his clothes. Then he felt refreshed and sat on the second floor of the courtyard, looking down at the sea in the distance.

Zhou Lang came to look for them with a food box. Seeing that she was alone, he asked, "Where is my brother-in-law?"

"I'm taking a bath." Zhou Man's eyes fell on the food box in his hand, "What's good to eat?"

Zhou Lang smiled and said: "I know you are seasick and I'm afraid you won't be able to eat anything else, so I asked the kitchen to cook porridge for you."

He opened the food box and brought out a bowl of porridge and a plate of snacks, "Green vegetable and shrimp porridge, and the snacks are your favorite chestnut cake, try it."

Zhou Man took a piece of snack and asked, "Where's Bai Shan's?"

Zhou Lang pointed to the food box and said, "Don't worry, I can't blame him, there's still a bowl in it."

"He likes to eat sweet-scented osmanthus cake."

Zhou Lang: "...Then let the kitchen make another plate of sweet-scented osmanthus cake now?"

After saying this, he regretted it, "Isn't this chestnut cake quite sweet? Why can't I eat it?"

Zhou Man: "When you eat, you should naturally eat what you like most."

"Okay, okay," Zhou Lang turned around and went downstairs, asking someone to go to the kitchen and order osmanthus cake.

Then he went back upstairs and said, "The letter you sent me was very unclear. It only said you wanted me to find a boat for you to go to sea, but it didn't say where you were going."

Zhou Man thought for a while and said, "We want to go to Tianfang."

Zhou Lang just took a sip of tea and almost spit it out, "Why didn't you say you wanted to go to heaven?"

He said: "Not many caravans can travel on the Tianfang route. It takes a year to go out. If you are unlucky and encounter a big storm, it may take two or three years to come back. How can you be so brave? It is your first time to go to sea.

Do you dare to go so far?"

Zhou Lang thought for a while and then said: "If you really want to go to sea, why don't you go to Silla first and see if you really adapt to life at sea."

Zhou Man: "...Don't lie to me. It only takes two or three days by boat from Longchi to Xinluo. It's not even far from Yangzhou."

Zhou Lang: ...So sometimes it’s annoying to talk to smart people, and you can’t fool them at all.
