1. Sea Crusoe
The lotus leaves are draped in a cool, and the green house is a night businessman. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info knows the most about the taste of rivers and lakes in his life, and he can listen to the sound of autumn and remember his hometown.
He often misses his hometown.
But where is my hometown?
He is Feng Nantian.
He's a Midstate legend.
The owner of the Rich Villa, the richest businessman in the world.
But he felt that since the day his family fell into the middle of the road, his parents died and he was kicked out of the family, he had no hometown.
In today's Zhongzhou, everyone only remembers his shops everywhere and the tens of thousands of gold baht he made in the blink of an eye, but no one knows his suffering and his hard work from scratch.
Not even his only daughter knows.
Only the most loyal subordinate and scholar who has followed him for most of his life, and now the old housekeeper of the Rich Villa, Huo Mang, knows the melancholy in his heart.
Feng Nantian lost his mother at the age of seven and his father at the age of ten, and his childhood was extremely tragic.
If it weren't for Huo Mang's careful care of the Feng family's only few assets, I'm afraid Feng Nantian would have starved to death on the street with a full stomach of poetry and songs.
Although Huo Mang is diligent and thrifty, he is not a businessman.
In the past few years, in order to fill their stomachs, they have sold the land and assets left by their ancestors little by little.
In the end, there was nothing to sell, so the two of them had to put down the young master's shelf and go to the surrounding big families to do some odd jobs that could fill their stomachs.
During this period, the two moved bricks on the construction site, set up stalls on the street, taught a few students in the ancestral hall at the head of the village, wrote letters and complaints to others, and even settled disputes for their neighbors with their courage and carefulness, but all of this could not fill their stomachs.
In the midst of hunger and cold, he ushered in the succession of the new emperor of the imperial capital Tianzhong.
The one who ascended the throne is still the uncle of His Majesty the current Emperor - Emperor Gu Yu Yun Zexi.
Era name, karmic fire.
The new emperor ascended the throne, in addition to the amnesty of the world, he also engaged in an Enke to open a scientific examination to select talents.
Feng Nantian, who was at the end of his rope and was also full of poetry and books, seemed to see hope, so he sold the little remaining wealth in his hand, and walked on the long road of scientific research in the heavens with fire, intending to make a desperate bet and earn a half-official position with what he learned in his chest to fill his stomach.
Life is not afraid of choosing the wrong direction.
If you go in the wrong direction, you can turn back and walk again.
But God doesn't seem to be planning to give Feng Nantian a chance to go again.
His desperate gamble did not bring him good luck.
He fell off the list.
The reason for falling off the list is ridiculous, because of eating.
Those who know something about the imperial examination in the old days should know that the imperial examination is usually an all-day examination, and eating, drinking, and sleeping are all in the examination room.
Feng Nantian's dry food is Wowotou.
In fact, eating wowotou is not a difficult thing.
Since the middle of the family, Feng Nantian feels that being able to eat a nest head at every meal is the most wonderful thing in the world.
But if you eat wowotou and others eat chicken, duck and fish next to you, then the situation is not good.
Feng Nantian had such a bad thing.
The candidate sitting next to him was an authentic foodie, with delicious fresh melons, fruits, chicken, ducks, and fish in bulging bags.
Others are there to answer the questions seriously, and the foodie is there to chew and chew.
And Feng Nantian bit the pen and watched him eat there.
When others answered "the worries of the world first, and the joy of the world after the world", Feng Nantian was thinking, if you share your food with me, it will be fun with the people.
Anyway, after a few days of exams, he was there biting the pen and watching the next person eat for a few days.
The final result, of course, ended in tragedy.
He was angry, he was angry.
In the words of the Supreme Treasure, when he left gloomily without finding his name on the list hanging outside the imperial city, he was like a dog.
If hunger and poverty are the pressures of his breathless life, then this failure is the last straw that pressed on him.
I can't go home.
In the imperial capital of Tianzhong, he couldn't stay any longer.
He left the imperial capital Tianzhong gloomily, and with the same gloomy expression, he stood at the crossroads of his life, not knowing what to do next, not knowing where to go.
In their hearts, they just thought that they should leave this place of right and wrong and go to a place where no one knew them.
Eventually, they came to the border of Zhongzhou, crossed the Cuihan Pass, entered the grassland of Xichi, and then entered the Gobi and the vast desert, and finally climbed over the Tianshan Mountain, which is known as the highest mountain that can touch heaven, and came to the vast seaside.
Further west, there is overseas.
The vast sea, the boundless.
Since there is no place for Zhongzhou, what about going west.
Is the other side of the sea the end of the sky?
I don't know.
So, they decided to take a look.
There was no boat to cross the sea, so he cut trees into boats, and then carried the delicacies and wild fruits he had picked onto the wooden boat.
In order to prevent the waves from capsizing the ship and swallowing them up along with the stored food, they hollowed out the huge tree and stuffed the food into it.
When there was no wind, they rode on the trees and went with the flow.
When there were waves, they went into the hollows of the trees and covered the holes with withered vines.
-- Let the wind and waves blow three thousand feet outside, and I will be safe in the cave.
When they were hungry, they ate some of the wild fruits they carried.
But more often than not, they will fish with improvised fishing lines and eat.
Afternoon is the best time for fishing, although the weather is hot, the people are hot, and the fish feel hot.
At this time, they will open the oil-paper umbrella - they brought it on the way to Beijing to catch the exam, although they failed to make the list, but the only property, the oil-paper umbrella, has always been carried with them. There were several times when I was so hungry that I couldn't stand it and wanted to take it away, but it was so broken that the people in the pawnshop were willing to exchange it for silver.
I threw it and was reluctant to let anyone go, so I took it with me and got on the boat.
Thankfully it wasn't thrown.
In the afternoon, they will open their umbrellas, lie down under them, and then hook the mushrooms with their fishing lines and throw them into the water to fish.
The fish seem to be very interested in these shredded mushrooms from the land, so there are usually many fish that are hooked in less than a cup of tea.
Feng Nantian and Huo Mang will quench their thirst with the blood of these sea fish and satisfy their hunger with fish meat.
Of course, he was an intellectual who read a lot of poetry.
Although he is a down-to-earth intellectual, he is also more elegant than ordinary people when he does what only barbarians can do, such as Ru Mao drinking blood.
When the fresh fish blood is a little fishy, they squeeze out the juice from the stored wild fruit and drink it together.
Then, the fish is cut into thin slices and eaten with seasonings, which has a unique flavor.
If there were too many fish caught on a given day, they would cut them all into thin slices, put them on the side of the boat, and dry them in the sun.
In the afternoon, the sun on the sea is scorching, and the sliced fish is not only oiled, but even scorched.
Grilled fish fillets that have not been processed over any open flame have a fresh, natural feel to the taste.
-- This is undoubtedly the origin of the idea of using a solar-powered system to grill meat.
Although fish blood is a great tonic, it is also crooked when you drink too much and get angry.
If you want to quench your thirst with something refreshing, fresh water is the best thirst quenching product.
But at sea, fresh water is as expensive as ......
It's expensive anyway.
No matter how expensive things are, they can't be difficult for our Fengnan Tiangongzi, who is full of poetry and books.
