Chapter 65
After returning to the Aeolus, Ling Qingyu announced to set sail when he saw that all the people on board were there and the supplies had been completed.
After the ship sailed out for a while, Ling Qingyu came out of the rudder cabin and went down to the deck. He saw that ram's men were surrounded by Shen Zhan and they were in the middle, and both sides were fighting.
"What to do with those who are in charge?" Shen Zhan asked when he saw her coming down.
Lingqingyu looked, well, none of those people were there, so he said, "ah, these eight people are new members of our ship. Don't have racial contempt. They will be the same people on the ship in the future. Shen Zhan, you can help them arrange a cabin alone."
With his fingers hooked on ram, RAM bumped up and asked, "master, what can I do for you?"
"After counting the gold, I will give you what you deserve. Do you want to find another place to get off the ship or continue to follow us? If you want to follow the ship, there are several things I want to make clear: first, shave my beard, and second, don't wear those messy perfume."
"Well, I'll discuss it with my brothers." Ram touched his beard, didn't he? The hostess didn't like my mature and attractive beard? Don't all those women like it?
"Go and have a rest first. It's OK to tell me later." Ling Qingyu yawned as she said.
"Yes, master!"
Back to the captain's room, well, everyone is gathered here, and Shi Fangzheng applies medicine one by one.
"Where did this robbery go? Was it hurt like this? Who is in charge? Are we doing business or pirates?" Shi Fang glanced at the cloth bag in her bedroom and said sour.
"Cut, you think I can encounter this kind of thing if I want to go out and play. These are the spiritual subsidies we get. It's good to ask them for medical expenses before we ask them." Ling Qingyu snorted, and then went up to help.
"Come on, there's someone here to help. Go to bed. Look at the dark circles under your eyes. They're not good-looking. If you don't maintain them, you'll be careful not to get married." Stonework waved his hand in disgust.
dark under-eye circles Oh, Ling Qingyu remembered that the wiped Eyeliner had been pasted into black circles.
Seeing Ling Qingyu's eyes looking at Yan Qi, Shi Fang smiled and said, "don't worry, his injury this time is not worth mentioning compared with the last time. After a few days, these people will be alive and kicking again."
"Go to bed." Yang Zhao pushed her into the room, closed the door, and saw that they were all decorated. With her character, I don't know how long it will be uncomfortable.
When Ling Qingyu woke up in the afternoon, he secretly went to see the wounded. Seeing that everyone was ok, Fang returned to his room to check the harvest.
There are only 150000 liang of gold, 15 sets of jewelry, a box of nearly 200 first-class gemstones, a box of more than 100 diamonds, more than 500 large pearls, and those ivory tortoise shells are directly thrown into the cargo hold below.
God, why does it feel so good? Great!
Ling Qingyu gave Lam 15000 liang of gold. Lam took only 5000 Liang under the cold eyes of Yan San and Yan Qi, and then said that he would continue to sign a three-year contract with Ling Qingyu. The eight of them, each with 50 gold coins a year, totaled 1200 gold coins. Then, under the glare of Yang Zhao, sang Jiayi pulled his hand, and said that these wages were also included in the 5000 Liang. The eight of them would die to follow their master, However, they asked whether they could go ashore in front, and they handed the gold to the clansman. Ling Qingyu agreed very generously.
Then he took Yang Zhao and them into the room, set out twelve sets of jewelry, and asked them to choose one set for their future bride price.
After they looked at each other, they all sincerely said that they could ask her to put them away first, and then ask her if necessary.
Ling Qingyu nodded quickly that she could continue to enjoy such exquisite jewelry in the future, saying that she would be safer than the safe.
Then ye Xi sneaked in and asked Ling Qingyu to promise to take him with him when he became a bandit in the future.
In the same expression, Ding Dong, Shen Zhan, Song Yu and Chu Cheng all expressed their positions on behalf of the brothers.
Ling Qingyu was very helpless about the look of us who would be in charge every time we went ashore, so he asked Yang Zhao to strengthen the training intensity in case of the next action.
Crossing the Arabian Sea, bypassing the Arabian Peninsula, passing through Bahrain, Suhar and other places, entering the Red Sea, and then entering zaharan Jeddah port, crossing the Red Sea, the ship arrived at aizab on the Red Sea.
Although there were many ports along the way, Ling Qingyu only sold some spices, then bought some spices of specialty foods, and then walked around the port for two days, leaving after supplies. The battle that spread the whole big food blocked the trade routes from these ports to Europe, and the ports began to wither. There were few ships and merchants, and the trading volume was really small. Even some merchants were greedy for the Aeolus, and they were willing but unable.

Shi Fang and Zhu Weili are the two people who are most happy to visit. One of them is very interested in overseas species, and when they see species they have not seen, they dig them back to the ship for planting. The other is very interested in the customs of various countries and collect folk customs and products of various countries.
Azab is located in the border of Egypt, and the wars of all countries have not affected here. From here, bypassing Egypt and then reaching Europe through the Mediterranean Sea has become the only trade route.
At this time, aizabu's prosperity can be said to be full of thousands of sails and merchants.
In the past, the merchant ships of Dazhou usually arrived at kalikat, and most of the goods were transferred by Arabs. Therefore, when a huge ocean ship of Dazhou arrived at the port, it caused a small sensation when the ship came and went to ezab.
However, less than half of the silk and porcelain carried by the Aeolus at this time have been left, and some will be left for East Africa. Seeing that high price, Ling Qingyu can only sigh. Fortunately, the spices brought from Calicut are also very popular here. Europeans like to eat meat, and most of them are pickled products. There is a great demand for these seasonings. At this time, other routes have been cut off, so they are particularly in demand.
Ling Qingyu only left half of the silk and silk, 1000 pieces of yarn and 50000 pieces of porcelain, and the rest were sold in aizabu.
There are few businessmen from Dazhou who came to aizab, and there are basically no people who understand Dazhou's words. Fortunately, there is Rahm. Although he stutters in Dazhou's words and Arabic, he can still play a role in communication.
"He said that this satin is very good. He can charge a high price for 20 gold coins. These red Luo are also very good. He is willing to offer 300 gold coins." Lam translated.
"Do you ask him whether he wants all or part? Don't say one by one." Ling Qingyu was a little impatient. She sat in the merchant's tent. Well, they said that they had been in their house for a long time. First, they looked at the goods for a long time, and then they talked back and forth for a long time. Ling Qingyu just felt that his head was almost dizzy.
"My master said, you either give a flat price, or we'll leave!" Ram turned to the merchant, and his tone was not very good. During this time, he got familiar with the people on the ship. He knew that the owner had robbed the aboriginal treasure before Calicut. He was ready to follow the owner several times along the way. As a result, the owner was good and really became a businessman in peace.
The merchant is very tangled. He really wants to eat all the goods of this big week merchant, but he doesn't have so much money!
"Could you please wait for two days, my brother will arrive tomorrow, and let us discuss it?" The way that businessmen please.
Rahm's face darkened immediately. We sat with you for most of the day. Is that what you want to say?
Ling Qingyu heard Lam's translator smile and said to Lam, "let's go first, stroll in the street, and tell him to come to our ship and talk if necessary."
Out of the tent, Ling Qingyu stretched out, thinking of a suitable person to do this kind of thing, he asked Yang Zhao, "where is Zhu Wei?"
"Let's go shopping with stonework. It doesn't matter. Someone has been asked to follow them." Yang Zhao laughed.
"Let's go for a walk, too. I'm tired of talking about it today." Although the tent was large, it was not ventilated at all, and there was a strange smell. Ling Qingyu felt that if she sat down again, she would not die of heat. She was afraid that she would be smoked to death.
The market in aizab is dominated by open-air stalls, in which there are also tents built by many large merchants. Although it is winter, the weather is still hot. Egyptian coolies in the market are only wearing short skirts and sweating in a hurry.
Out of the market, there are paved streets. The streets are narrow and crowded with small shops on both sides, selling all kinds of things.
People from Dazhou are very rare here. Ling Qingyu and several others walked all the way, attracting countless attention, and more warmly came up to say hello directly.
One of the female shopkeepers shouted enthusiastically, dragging Ling Qingyu to her shop.
After entering the store, the woman said to Yang Zhaoyan again, dragging Ling Qingyu.
"What she means is that only the owner is allowed to enter, and men are not allowed to enter." Lam translated and asked, "why can't men enter?"
The woman croaked, and ram's face changed. He said to Ling Qingyu, "master, it's really not dangerous here, and it's really not suitable for men to go in."
"Then wait outside." Lingqingyu saw that the house was not big, and he thought there would be no trap, detour.
Yan San wanted to say something else. Seeing Ling Qingyu who stepped into the house with his feet, his eyes suddenly lit up, he stopped and stood at the door. There was only a curtain between here and the inside. Just now, he glanced at the inside and saw that the area was not large. If something happened, he must be aware of it.
Yan San only saw Ling Qingyu's eyes shining and the curtain falling, but he didn't see Ling Qingyu's face turning red.
Well, the carpet on the floor of the small inner room is full of all kinds of boxes of supplies.
