The road from Africa to Europe

Chapter 112 The Second Story Ends

If those elegant collections are still valuable in the era when peace and comfort are paramount, they are not as valuable as cloth and grain in troubled times. In the troubled times in the north, how can they be replaced?

This made Mr. Sheng Lang very upset, this was a big problem, without money it would be difficult to move forward.

"Don't worry, I have a lot of gold and silver here, which can be taken out." Ling Xiao said.

"But, isn't this yours, sister?" the original owner said, he didn't want it.

"No, it's not mine, I just keep it for you." Ling Xiao said.

She did not come to this world to collect gold, silver and jewels.

Gold and silver are not as important as daily necessities.

She came to help the original owner.

If you keep those gold and silver jewels.

It's better to keep some classics, this is a good thing.

"Sister, I don't want it." The original owner said, he really didn't need it.

Ling Xiao didn't say anything, anyway, it was left to the original owner at the last moment.

And Mr. Sheng Lang thought for a while in silence, and felt that what the disciple said might not be the same way.

He and his disciples are really single and weak, there is no manpower if you want it, and no territory if you want it.

Even if there are parts, how many can be played?It is simply not comparable to the big families in the south and the barbarians in the north.

If there is a fight between these two parties, it will be an ant fighting an elephant. As long as the elephant steps on it casually, the ant will be finished.

The only way to get a certain amount of capital quickly is to use the power of the family, but if the family is used, the family will definitely let the disciple marry a clan daughter.

Without any fetters, the family will never invest, and it is more likely that the family will let its disciples directly join the ranks of the barbarians. Mr. Sheng Lang feels that if he wins, the biggest benefit will definitely be taken away by the family.

Mr. Sheng Lang thought about it, and finally said: "Zian, I thought about it for a while, and I think what you said is right, no, you can learn water skills first and recruit talents."

Following him, he discovered that there was another big problem, that is, the problem of ships. It is important to know that ships entering the sea need more ability to resist storms.

Inland ships are not acceptable, but he feels that it is impossible for people to build ships in the north, and even if there are people, they will disappear in the troubled times.

After thinking about it, Mr. Sheng Lang told the original owner, "It looks like I'm going to the south to dig some people back."

As a nautical novice-someone who has never participated in ocean sailing, I need foreign help.

They have too many problems and it is a waste of time and money to start from scratch.

Instead, go to the south where you have sailing experience to see and learn from it.

It will save a lot of things, this is Sheng Langjun's experience.

For a while, I felt overwhelmed.

After listening to the original owner, he quietly thought about it.

Feeling the same reason, he communicated with Ling Xiao.

"Sister, why do I feel that Master is right, I should go to the south."

Ling Xiao thought for a while and said, "Go, sometimes professional things should be done by professionals."

Although she has some knowledge in many aspects, she definitely doesn't know how to build a ship, and it is impossible for her to restore an ancient ship.

This idea was settled, and Mr. Sheng Lang decided to wait until the weather improved before going on the road. Knowing that the current situation is not very good, it is better to go on the road as soon as possible.

In order to reassure his disciple, he also specially told this child, "Zian, we have a place to stay when we go to the south. I also have a few friends who have gone to the south. Just contact them when the time comes."

After hearing this, Ling Xiao secretly breathed a sigh of relief. She has no chance of helping the original owner in this regard. This is her weakness. She is not from this world, so naturally she has no personal connections.

On the contrary, people from big families always have channels unknown to outsiders, so that they can contact people in the south and get more things.

Mr. Sheng Lang really contacted the people in the south in the back, and made a lot of preparations for Nandu. Ling Xiao gained a lot in the process.

As an ancient man, he really has a few brushes, which can be regarded as making up for what the original owner lacked in ancient life.

Mr. Sheng Lang didn't care much about contacting the south in the eyes of the family members. They have always been in contact.

Sometimes the family needs more food for storage, which is transported from the south.

Large tracts of fertile land in the north have been barren and become gathering places for wild beasts.

Basically, the land is vast and sparsely populated, and the food produced is very little.

Even if there are wise barbarian nobles who want to kill less people, it is too late.

Coupled with the fact that the tribes have their own plans, not all the ones above will follow.

There is a tribe that is very rebellious and will not obey at all, and it is definitely going its own way.

However, Mr. Sheng Lang's family is relatively close to the south, and far away from the barbarian regime, which is beyond his reach.

Back then, when he knew that revenge was hopeless, he thought about going to the south and gathering people to avenge his daughter.

But because he was too disappointed and he didn't have a good rest for several days, he fell seriously ill. Someone took the opportunity to make trouble and refused to let the disease doctor treat him.

The loyal servant Amao heard that there was a genius doctor haunting the county town near his family, so he stole Mr. Sheng Lang out.When he came out, there was no way out, and he almost died on the road. It was a coincidence that he met the original owner and survived.

After receiving the message from his friend, Mr. Sheng Lang came to find his disciples, wanting to have a good talk. After all, it is a dangerous road to go down this far.

"Zian, I've received a letter. If I don't change my mind, I'll be on the road the day after tomorrow. If I go further down, there will be no turning back."

"Yes, Master, I've thought it through thoroughly, but it's still dangerous to implicate Master."

"I'm in my thirties now, so I have nothing to fear." Sheng Langjun shook his head, looked at his disciple and said.

He has a headache now, feeling that this place is becoming more and more difficult to live in, that old man is too hateful.

During this period of time, the old fox intensified and sent out more young women.

Dignified and generous, gentle and amiable, playful and lovely, there are many types.

Let Sheng Langjun's face turn green, this is basically a beauty trick, right?

What if the disciple has an impulse and can't control it?Will the old fox let it go?

However, Mr. Sheng Lang couldn't say anything at all, this is the daughter of the clan, and he is one of the members of the clan.

He couldn't bear the vomit anymore. This old fox had a good plan at all, but he wouldn't let him succeed.

As soon as he received a reply from his friend, he would call his disciple over, intending to leave quickly, and the original owner also felt that something was wrong, so he naturally agreed to leave.

In private, Ling Xiao said to the original owner: "You will also encounter enemies when you go to Yizhou, but that place is surrounded by the sea, and the enemy will die one less, and there will be no endless enemies. This is much better than the south and the north."

"Just one thing, Zi'an, I'm afraid there are people living on that island, maybe even people from the Central Plains who moved there. I hope you don't want to kill people after you go up. Remember that."

In Ling Xiao's view, those who arrived earlier than the original owner also have the right to live. If possible, it is better to win together instead of thinking about bringing war.

You can't kill all the original people on the island just to live for yourself. This kind of behavior is no different from that of barbarians.

Ling Xiao would suggest that they adopt a gentle approach, and they can win over and cooperate with the people on the island.

Of course, this is an important prerequisite, and it must be backed by strong force.

Otherwise, it is impossible for those aborigines to sit down and talk in detail.

Only carrots and sticks.

Only then can the two parties sit down.

Only in this way can we have a good talk about our future.

It's better to be a win-win and make Aboriginal people feel profitable.

After knowing this idea, Mr. Sheng Lang pondered for a long time, but remained silent.

The most important point of the family education he has received is that the interests of the family are greater than the sky.

As for whether the aborigines were dead or alive, he didn't care much, but he was a little touched after hearing what the original owner said.

In fact, it would be really good if those natives could be recovered.He stroked his beard, finally nodded and said, "Alright."

Of course, Ling Xiao also reminded the original owner that this isolated island is relatively easy to defend and difficult to attack, but once the mainland is unified, maybe the surrounding islands will be raided. Even if the Central Plains doesn’t care, the pirates will attack the island. idea.

We must be prepared for danger in times of peace, and don't think that you can become a king if you have a piece of land, and there will be many natural disasters on the island.

Later generations of Yizhou often had problems such as typhoons passing through and landslides. In addition, the island was located in an earthquake zone, so there were more earthquakes.

Ling Xiao reminded some of the natural problems, and the original owner nodded after listening, with a dignified expression.

Then say, "I will take this advice to heart and pass it on to future generations."

Ling Xiao smiled slightly, and all the things that should be paid attention to were almost entrusted.

She didn't say anything more, it was so annoying.

During this time, I listened to Sheng Langjun's teachings.

It is two people who study together, and absorb it very quickly.

And after receiving a proud disciple, Mr. Sheng Lang was very happy.

During the teaching process, she finally felt how refreshing it was to receive a good student.

And because Ling Xiao came from modern times, many concepts are different, and it still affects the original owner.

During the process of Sheng Langjun's teaching, both the original master and Ling Xiao found that their respective thoughts were somewhat different from Sheng Langjun's.

During this process, Sheng Langjun also taught other people's affairs, and soon found that his own disciples were even better, and the family's children appeared to be relatively stupid against the background of the original owner.

The patriarch's heart is itchy, and he doesn't know where Sheng Langjun found his disciple?Why aren't you a child of your own family?Such a powerful person, if he is there, I am afraid that he will not be afraid of the barbarians.

It's a pity that the relationship between Mr. Sheng Lang and the family is a bit broken. The patriarch wants to marry the girl in the family to the original owner, so that the original owner can be regarded as a relationship with the family. It's a pity that the original owner he met is Liu Xiahui who is still alive.

When he met a beautiful girl outside, he left far away. The patriarch gritted his teeth when he knew about it. Mr. Sheng Lang didn't want to get in, and the younger one simply didn't have any further plans.

Fortunately, there is great chaos in the north now, and the two of them, master and apprentice, have no other place to go. The patriarch decided not to press Sheng Langjun so hard, but to endure slowly.

The patriarch doesn't believe that his younger brother can prevent his disciples from getting married and having children. This is impossible, so let's look at the candidates in the clan.

He didn't expect that Mr. Sheng Lang had already made up his mind, and one day Mr. Sheng Lang took the original owner on the road.

Said to see how the situation in the south, to see if there is any benefit to be reaped.

Of course, Mr. Sheng Lang also knew that this was just an excuse.

A wealthy family in the South.

And the aristocratic family from Nandu a few years ago.

It was hard to divide the sphere of influence that lived in peace.

How could new forces join in?This is unlikely.

Mr. Sheng Lang knew it well, and his family knew it well, but he still wanted to build a good relationship with Nanfang.

After all, if there is any problem, the members of the family can escape to the south.

What makes Mr. Sheng Lang very satisfied is that the original owner has already practiced water skills.

The original owner held his breath longer than ordinary people.

Swim faster.

Become a master swimmer.

This discovery makes Sheng Langjun very flattered.

Of course, other people are at least not afraid of falling into the water.

They went to the south after some twists and turns, and Mr. Sheng Lang took them with them.

First, go to Sheng Langjun's best friend, a man surnamed Xiao.

When he arrived at the place, Ling Xiao recognized who this was. Isn't this Xiao Rugui?

But she didn't say anything, anyway, the original owner was slowly making friends with her.

In fact, the original owner met many people in the south, including Shiba Lang, but most of them couldn't recognize them.

In the process of living in the south, Mr. Sheng Lang discovered that the original disciple also had many connections that could be used, and later ordered a wife for the original owner.

Ling Xiao decided to leave after seeing it. Anyway, the basic tasks were completed. Before leaving, she left behind the accumulated gold, silver and jewelry, as well as many wooden and bamboo slips. You must know that building a ship costs a lot of money. No money is absolutely impossible. No way.

Of course, these things were placed in the original owner's room when other people were away. Ling Xiao only left some repeated wooden and bamboo slips.

There are also things written by Mr. Sheng Lang and some literati, which belong to Ling Xiao's favorite things, so they took them away.

And the original owner didn't know Ling Xiao's plan, but one day it was a bit dim and it seemed that he was not sleeping.

I heard Ling Xiao say goodbye to him with a smile: I'm leaving, you have to live well.

The original owner asked excitedly: "Go, why do you want to go?"can stay.

Ling Xiao said: I still have something to do, the original owner asked: Why did you help me?

He has never asked this question, but wants to ask.

The fairy sister is leaving, and he wants to know the answer.

Ling Xiao smiled slightly.

She can't say that this is a task.

And she suspected that there was a strong bond between her and the original owner.

She said: I am you, you are me.I am not you and you are not me.

The original owner was confused when he heard this, what exactly does this mean?

He saw Ling Xiao's conscious body disappear all of a sudden, and when he wanted to catch it, he woke up all of a sudden.

After waking up, he saw good things all over the room, slowly chewing Ling Xiao's last few words, he wept.

Mr. Sheng Lang later found out that another master of the disciple had actually come and even brought a lot of things to the disciple, but the disciple said that she would never come back again.

"Father, shall we go back now?" "Yeah! I've been out for nearly half a year, and I don't know how the family is doing." The one who spoke was the original owner, who was already the father of several children.

The original owner now takes the master's surname, so that the master's family will not be sacrificed, and he and the master are a real family.

"Father, I miss my family." Xiao Lang who spoke was very lively, but he still had the etiquette of a nobleman.

The father and son boarded a big boat, and when they left the port, they passed by another boat.

It happened that someone on the boat saw the pair of father and son standing on the deck from the window.

It's just that the people who saw it seemed familiar for some reason.

I couldn't help but look a few more times, who is this?

Just very familiar but can't remember.

It took a while before I suddenly remembered why it looked so familiar.

The man looked a bit like a dead father, and the child looked a bit like a son who had been left in the Northland.

The reason why I didn't remember it right away was because I hadn't seen them for many years, so the images in my memory were a little fuzzy.

It's just that after all, it was the most important person in her heart, and she finally remembered who it was?Father!son!These two people actually appeared in front of her eyes.

She suddenly ignored etiquette and wanted to chase them out, to see what those two people looked like, did she remember wrongly?Or was it her family?

But she found that she couldn't see at all, and now she was entering the port. She had to wait for the ship to dock before looking for it. After the ship docked, she couldn't find anything.

But the original owner didn't realize who it was. Later, I heard that an old lady had found a pair of father and son, and I heard that they looked like relatives.

His eyes flickered, is it her?It is said that the couple never had a child again.

Even if he later took concubines for his heirs, none of the children came.

But there is a filial nephew.

Retirement is absolutely worry-free.

Then everyone is safe.

Sister!How are you now?
