Mixing ancient times with Taobao

Chapter 362 The Angelic Foo

With the sails raised, John, with tears in his eyes, pressed the secret medicine tightly to his chest with one hand, and waved vigorously with the other, saying goodbye to his dear friend Zuofu.

The mist is vast, the seabirds are whirling and singing, and the friendship that spans thousands of miles is condensed in a small white plastic bottle.

In the era of great geographical discovery, European countries have made every effort to explore unknown areas, bringing back endless wealth and various diseases at the same time.

Compared with these infectious diseases, what sailors from all over the world fear more is the curse of going to sea.

This curse will not reveal its true colors until the next century.

In response to this curse, these Europeans have prayed, performed various rituals to pray to gods, bled themselves, and beat themselves with whips...

But it didn't work.

The curse that they will be punished by the sea god has been haunting the crews of all countries, no matter what method they use, it is futile.

But now, the magic weapon to resist this curse is tightly held by John.In these white bottles, there are 1000 tablets of the elixir in each bottle.Take it twice a day, one tablet each time.These secret medicines were enough for him and his crew to reach England safely.

even……

Can still run a few times back and forth.

Because according to Zuo Fu, one tablet a day is also feasible.If symptoms appear, it is not too late to increase the dose.

[-] tablets of secret medicine, free gift!
How great is this!
Tears blurred John's eyes.

In front of truly kind people, the calculations in his heart made him ashamed.As a child of God, he must return this friend with the same sincerity.

John Burr had no doubts about Zoffer's claim.Because when he was in Batavia, he heard that those Chinese people would not be cursed by the sea god and would not have those terrible symptoms.

Therefore, these secret medicines should be the secrets of Ming people's voyages.They must have sold them domestically.Just out of some dark thoughts, these damn Daming people kept silent!Even the Portuguese who had the closest business dealings with them didn't tell!
These squint-eyed people going out to sea are indeed the most despicable people in Daming!It can't be compared with the nobles of Ming Dynasty!Their personalities are vile, not like Vaughan, who is really an angel.

oh god!
He had only left Daming for a while, and he was already missing this friend.

But soon, these emotions and melancholy dissipated from my heart.

He thought of the cargo in the ship.

Those china are so beautiful!If you bring it back to the UK, it will definitely cause a sensation!And those silks...green tea...those delicate palm mirrors, crystal balls...

God!

He couldn't imagine how much wealth he brought back to himself this time!But what he can be sure of is that the next time he goes to sea, he must have changed his shotgun, and it is absolutely impossible to bring a boat!

Those miraculous medicines that can cure diseases can be sold besides being given to nobles!In the face of life, the special medicine is to sell as much as you want!And his dear good friend Fur also supports him, so...

He couldn't help laughing out loud!
Many fellow villagers died before approaching Daming's territorial waters, and I was so lucky.Not only did he find the route to Daming, but he also brought back gifts and letterheads from the Duke of Daming Town. With these two, he was able to become a knight himself!

You know, in order to find Daming, the British have suffered a lot.And those damned Spaniards and Portuguese wouldn't tell them the route.This time he also came to Batavia by accident, and met a Daming man who liked black slaves...

and so……

This is all arranged by God!

The mean Spaniard could not stop the Saxon; likewise, the sea could not stop him John Burr!The day he returns to England is destined to be the day he becomes famous in England!
The boat got farther and farther away from the coast, and finally, the watchtower disappeared, leaving only the vast sea and circling seabirds around...

Zuofu, who was still staying at the port, began to inspect the situation of the warehouse.

This time she collected all the silk and porcelain from the merchants.At the same time, she also stuffed a lot of soap and palm mirrors in the warehouse.

The typhoon season has passed, and various maritime merchants have also taken action.

Over the past two days, sea merchants from Fuzhou have arrived one after another.The officials now want to monopolize the profits of the sea trade. They only cooperate with the big sea merchants and monopolize the main supply chains in the market, so that these small sea merchants have no possibility of entering the sea, so they can only think about it. Foo is trying his luck here.

Although they had made an agreement with Zuo Fu before, there was always a little hope in their hearts.But now hope is gone, and now I can only go to Qiongzhou to talk to this lord again.

Zuo Fu naturally would not reject these people.

There are many people and strength, and it was these small maritime merchants who transported thousands of them to Qiongzhou last time.She won't reject others just because they don't have enough capital.

Although she is not an economist or sociologist from later generations, she still has the concept of sharing economy.And these small sea merchants are now in need of an organizer, and she feels that it is very appropriate for Qiongzhou government to take over this person.

The ships of these people are gathered together, she will supply the goods, and she will pay for the loss, and give the sea merchant 4% of the profit. No one can refuse such an offer.

Traveling by sea these days is very dangerous, often resulting in shipwreck and loss of life.If he survived by luck, he would have basically ruined his family.

Now this risk is borne by the Qiongzhou government. If unfortunately killed, the money for the goods will be redistributed by the Qiongzhou government to the family members, and it will be counted as trade profits.

Everyone is satisfied with this condition!

Because even if they die in this way, the whole family can always survive.

Going to sea is a matter of risking their lives to make money, and now someone is willing to share some risks for them, just for this, they also feel that Mrs. Zuo is really righteous, and they are willing to follow her!

It is estimated that there will be no fewer than fifty ships coming from Fuzhou.These small sea merchants were attached to those big sea merchants in the past.As a result, they have directly cooperated with the government now. Not only do they want to kick them away, but they also want to buy their boats. If it weren't for the sake of transporting the Duke of Zhen, they would probably dare to rob them now.

So now their lives are threatened, and cooperation with Zuo Fu has become their only choice.

Zoffre was glad these people came.As for their previous little thoughts, Zuo Fu didn't care at all.

People don't want to be destroyed by heaven and earth!Life is not easy for everyone, if you don't count on it, you have already been turned into ashes by others.Now that we can work together, this is the best result.

Since there are so many ships coming, it is necessary to prepare the goods.

And she didn't plan to take a long journey this time, nor did she plan to put too much silk and porcelain on board.These ships are mainly used to hold daily necessities for later generations.

Toothpaste, toothbrushes, towels, dishcloths, nail clippers, needle sets, thimbles, glass, mirrors...

In short, all the practical things that are not very local have been purchased, and her goal this time is not the distant Europa, but Japan, which is the closest to Ming Dynasty...
