52 East-northeast
"Next, this question will be handed over to our navigator master, Master He Yong and Master He to answer!" Li Tianyang stretched out his hand and gave way to He Yong beside him.
He Yong, the master who was picked out by Li Tianyang from the homeless people to teach everyone the art of pulling stars, compared to the down-and-out appearance ten years ago, He Yong is now a little blessed, and his stomach has begun to bulge forward, it seems that in the past ten years, his life has been good.
"Master is polite, I didn't expect that I He Yong is over half a hundred years old, and I can still be valued by the master and be the pioneer of this path, which makes He Yong and me flattered." As soon as He Yong came up, he slapped Li Tianyang on the back and showed his loyalty to Li Tianyang.
"Since last year, when my master asked me to go to sea to find a suitable camp and prepare for today's operation, I have been working hard for most of the past six months, trekking through mountains and rivers and drifting on this sea." After filming the sycophants, the next thing is to show the merit: "It's not me bragging, let's see, I have worn out several pairs of straw sandals like this, and I finally found a few suitable camps to live up to expectations." ”
He Yong spoke emotionally about the hardships he had suffered these days, and in order to prove that what he said was true, he even raised his feet to let everyone see his pair of straw sandals, which were very shabby.
"Ahem!! To get to the point, you're all off track! Li Tianyang couldn't help but interrupt He Yong's invitation, and looked at He Yong helplessly.
He knew He Yong as a person, and He Yong, who had only mastered the half-hung star pulling technique, dared to run in front of Li Tianyang and make a lot of nonsense, saying how powerful his star pulling technique was. Even after a few months, he did not have the slightest embarrassment and shame of being exposed to the lie, and still had the cheekiness to eat and drink in the camp. If it weren't for the fact that the course of astrology was really needed in the camp course, and He Yong had more or less worked hard at sea for a period of time, and it was still of some use to the camp, he would have been driven to where Li Tianyang and them would have been.
For such a cheeky person who likes to talk nonsense, but now he is one of the few guys who is familiar with the surrounding seas, Li Tianyang really can't do anything to him. Besides, although this person is so happy, he still knows that he will do his best to handle the requirements of the leader, and Li Tianyang can still tolerate it with just a few words of invitation, such as this incident.
"Yes, yes, yes, what the master said." He Yong nodded in response, quickly straightened his attitude, took out a relatively scribbled map, and introduced the several places he chose: "Speaking of this prosperous route, the maritime trade between the Ming Dynasty and the Ming Dynasty is only limited to Quanzhou Yuegang, so the prosperous place of seafaring ships is also within its range. Although there are also post trades in Guangzhou, most of them are trade between officials and merchants of the Nanyang Domain, and this is basically the sphere of influence of our Shark. Now that Xiao Ye is running away from home, I am afraid that it will be difficult for them to meet with Li Ye, of course, we are not good at grabbing food as a family, so we can only choose the two lines of Ningbo and Yuegang. ”
"Ningpo is too far away, although I have worked hard at sea for some time, but I have only been there a few times, and I am not familiar with and understand its surroundings, so this time, I set my goal in Quanzhou Yuegang. This is less than a thousand miles to the east of Tanmen, there is a gas of sand, during which the islands and reefs, innumerable, uninhabited, from the navigation trade route is not far away, but it is convenient for us to hide. It's just that the surrounding islands are small, and the largest ones are only a few miles away, and because there are many reefs, it is difficult for those who are not familiar with the environment to navigate, so it is also a hiding place for many pirates around. As far as I can see, it's not a suitable place for a newcomer like us.
"Qishatou is hundreds of miles to the east, there is an Orchid Island, the island is not small, fresh water materials, all of which are insufficient, but it is suitable for us to live. However, when I went to Orchid Island, I found that there were indigenous people living on it, although their hair was similar to ours, but their speaking customs were completely different from ours, and what was even more terrifying was that these aborigines, whether male or female, wore no clothes on their bodies, and they did not know what to be ashamed of. There is that cruel tribe that eats raw fish and meat without knowing how to use cooked food, and I fear that it is a cannibal tribe and a great threat to us. ”
"Orchid Island is less than 100 miles away, there is a big island, called Dayuan, comparable to the size of our Qiongzhou Prefecture, there are many trees on it, fresh water, birds and beasts are endless. There is that land, fertile and flat, as long as it is cultivated and tended a little, it is a good land. Moreover, I have walked on the island for more than ten days, but it is rare to see people, most of them are deserted, and any place to camp is an excellent hiding place. It's just that this island is too far away from our Tanmen, and it will take at least half a month if we go back and forth, day and night. ”
"These three places, in my opinion, are the most suitable places for us to set up camp, but they have their own shortcomings, and they are not easy to compare."
He Yong talked eloquently, shook out all the conclusions reached after running for most of the year, and asked more than a dozen people present to discuss the choice together.
"In my opinion, let's choose this gas and sand head, find a weak pirate at random, and serve him in one pot, and save all of us the hard work of rebuilding the camp." Wu Jie has always been not afraid of heaven and earth, and finally has the opportunity to experience the battle in person, of course he wants to be as chaotic as possible.
"I think, let's choose Nalanyu Island, just to see what the unclothed aborigines look like!" Gan Dabiao doesn't like to fight, but he opened his mind very early, although he is only sixteen years old, but according to his usual bragging and farting with his brothers below, he is already a person who understands the feelings of ********, and now it is a reverie, smiling and smiling, so that several girls can hear the meaning, and they are all a little red-faced and angry.
"Then according to what Uncle sees, which of these three places is more suitable for us?" Everyone just followed a sketch and He Yong's words, but they didn't go to the field, and it was not easy to make their own judgments, so Li Tianyang still handed over the right to choose to He Yong.
"If you don't need to go home often, in my opinion, it is more appropriate to choose a big man, for three reasons: this island is vast and rich, just suitable for us to reclaim wasteland and grow food, after all, we are no better than ordinary pirate gangs, there are more than 200 mouths to eat as soon as we come up, if there is no place to grow food, just by robbing ships to and from the sea may not be able to guarantee our rations; The big man is away from the Moon Port, separated by a sea, only a hundred miles away, and the passing merchant ships are endless, if we really want to go to the same reason as Li Ye and them, we will not worry about the goal at all in the future here. ”
"The most important thing is that I have been visiting Dayuan Island for more than ten days, and I have really found a lot of suitable places for all of us to camp! If the master agrees, we don't have to run too much, we can go to see the few camping places I have chosen first. ”
He Yongxun said, and the teenagers who said it nodded one after another, and even Li Tianyang showed an approving gaze, and felt that the adult was really a good choice. In the end, after everyone agreed unanimously, the goal of the voyage was finally set - the master.
"Without further ado, let's go!"
"Direction, East by Northeast! Goal, Great! Let's go!! ”
