Chapter 269
Chapter 269
Qi Cheng had just finished cutting the vegetables in the kitchen when he heard a noise at the door. He turned around and saw that it was Zhou Lu who came over.
"Why didn't you go out fishing today? Fishing for three days and then drying your nets for two is not a good habit." Qi Cheng said with a smile, "The big fish in the sea are waiting for your net."
"You're still going out fishing in this weather? Who would want to be your friend if I freeze to death?" Zhou Lu lay on the sofa. "It's so windy outside, my boat can't handle it."
Zhou Lu asked Qi Cheng to stop cutting the cabbage and quickly make a pot of tea. If there were any oranges, he should bring them over as he wanted to gather around the stove to make tea.
There were no oranges and he was too lazy to make tea, so Qi Cheng threw him a packet of espresso.
The fishermen outside the sky were very envious. They were now unable to make a living if they did not go out fishing for a day, and some of them could not even go to land.
Not to mention if it's just a little windy, even if it's snowing you have to go to the sea.
Looking at the two people eating on the sky screen, I could only look with envy.
As for making tea around the fire, isn't that something only rich people do? Ordinary people don't have coal or even tea at home.
……
Qi Cheng was chewing an apple while asking Zhou Lu if he had caught any valuable fish or treasures from the sea after working for so long.
Hearing that there was a treasure, everyone outside the tent listened attentively.
"What treasure? That's like looking for a needle in a haystack." Zhou Lu shook his head. "As for valuable fish, I haven't caught any yellow croaker, but I did catch a large garfish."
Currently, offshore fishery resources are extremely scarce, and it is good enough to ensure that every net can catch something.
"It's all because the older generation was too ruthless. I was just chartering a boat to go out to sea, otherwise sometimes I might not even be able to get the gas money."
Ancient people: This has nothing to do with us, don’t put the blame on us.
In fact, the fishermen in ancient times were also very curious about where the fish and shrimp in the sea had gone. The size of the ones captured by the host’s friend’s mobile phone was nothing to them.
Twenty-centimeter shrimps are hard to come by.
Then what are the two one-pound ones they caught?
Since when did yellow croaker become a valuable fish? Sometimes it can't even be sold.
……
"Other people can pick up ambergris, but all I get with my net is a few small fish and a bunch of garbage. How can there be so many treasures in the sea?" Zhou Lu took a sip of tea. "What other treasures do you think there are in the sea?"
"Haici." Qi Cheng laughed, "Maybe we can even fish out the Qin King's Bone Mirror."
Of course Zhou Lu knew what sea porcelain was, but although this place was a port, it was not a very important one in ancient times, and no good ceramics were produced here.
This thing is generally more common in the South China Sea because Quanzhou Port is an important port for going out to sea.
"Can my boat salvage a sunken ship? It's not even as big as the sunken ship. As for the mirror, I'll talk about it when I travel through time and space to Ghost Blows Out the Light."
The people outside the sky finally understood what the so-called sea porcelain was. These people in later generations were quite powerful and could even salvage ships that sank in the sea.
If only this technology were available at this time.
Merchants going out to sea now have some protection.
Daqin
Qin Shihuang was originally dealing with memorials, but since paper had been invented by the Mohists, he no longer had to read kilograms of bamboo slips every day.
He was a little interested in the above-mentioned King Qin taking care of the mirror. He threw the brush in his hand aside and asked Fusu, who was responsible for recording the sky, to tell him what was going on.
"This should be an episode from the movie Ghost Blows Out the Light." Fusu guessed carefully, "Last time they said those people were going to look for the tomb of the King of Dian, so this mirror should still be behind them."
"This King of Qin..."
"Eighty percent of the time, it refers to Father..."
Seeing Qin Shihuang's somewhat nervous face, Fusu quickly comforted him, saying that this was adapted from a movie, and there was no such thing as a bone mirror in the Qin Dynasty now.
And according to Tianmu's words, the mirror is in the sea, so it is definitely nonsense, because Xianyang is not on the seaside.
"I don't know when the host will watch this movie. If you do, please remind me. I want to see how it will be edited in the future."
……
"What do you plan to do when you have money in the future?" Qi Cheng took a sip of tea and picked up a piece of dessert. "Focus on running your restaurant or retire early."
"I'll buy a bigger boat and sail around the world, going to Africa to see the great animal migration, to South America to see the piranhas in the rainforest, and to West Asia to see the extravagant life there."
"Let's go to the South China Sea and see if we can run into Brother Nine Fingers. I heard he's become a big internet celebrity."
Qi Cheng laughed out loud. Zhou Lu's dream was the only one that could come true. The others were just a dream for the unlucky guy whose thumb was squeezed off.
No matter how red it is, a thumb won’t grow out.
Tang Dynasty
Li Shimin had seen a world map, but he knew little about other continents. He was also very surprised to hear Zhou Lu's words.
Doesn't South America produce corn and sweet potatoes? Why do there exist piranhas? Could it be that the fish there are also big, so they can swallow people?
But there are also many big fish in the Tang Dynasty, and I have never heard of any reports of cannibalism.
Isn't West Asia the same as Persia? Why are they so obsessed with luxury? Although those Hu merchants do have some money, it's nothing compared to the aristocratic families of the Tang Dynasty.
As for Luzon, aren’t they all Kunlun slaves?
Ming Dynasty
Zhu Di slammed the table angrily. This was the second time he heard that Luzon was disrespectful. This small country was too rampant, and he couldn't help but want to teach it a lesson.
"Zheng He, when you arrive in Luzon this time, tie up their king and bring him to the capital. Then, leave a guard there and establish a forward base."
"Yes."
These people in later generations were really too kind. The small countries around them were afraid of his power but not his virtue. Just look at how Zhang Fu pacified Annan.
The big stick in your hand has to hurt them.
……
Qi Cheng and Zhou Lu talked about their dreams for a few more words. Then they looked at the time and saw that it was already time for dinner. He went to the refrigerator and took out a piece of meat to make braised pork, and stewed the chopped cabbage.
Add a bag of peanuts and two grilled sausages.
"Great, let's make some Erguotou." Zhou Lu looked outside. "It would be more atmospheric if it snowed a little."
After eating and drinking, Zhou Lu played with his mobile phone and asked Qi Cheng what he would do if he had money.
"If I were rich, I would hire you to sail me around the world."
