The word Pacific Ocean was named by Li Kuan when he launched the globe.

However, Li Geng felt that the ocean was not peaceful at all.

"The Yang Benman" just passed through a storm, and now Li Geng is directing everyone to calculate the losses.

"Li Langjun, five missing brothers are probably swept into the sea by the storm last night; there are more than a dozen sailors who were injured, but there are not many problems."

Li Geng breathed a sigh of relief when he heard that he had just disappeared five brothers.

Yesterday's hurricane was the biggest encounter since leaving the Tang Dynasty.

Li Geng has always been worried about whether any ship could not withstand the storm's attack, and the loss would be huge.

Now that there are only a few people, it is acceptable.

When people are floating on the sea, everyone is already accustomed to parting with life and death.

Especially for ocean-going voyages, even if there are already mature routes, people will die from various injuries from time to time.

As for the newly developed route, this is a big adventure in itself.

Can adventure not kill people?

If Guanshishan Academy had not been fully prepared for this trip to sea, the fleet led by Li Geng would have died before it even arrived in America.

"Organize brothers to repair the damaged areas on the ship, and then give each person half a bottle of wine to celebrate. After avoiding this storm, we are getting closer and closer to America, and success is right in front of us, so that everyone will not relax."

The wine was specially carried by Li Kuan for the fleet. This kind of thing that can prevent sepsis to a certain extent and satisfy the crew's cravings. Each ship specially freed up a cabin to load it.

"Brother Li, since it's a celebration, let's just give everyone a bottle. Anyway, we are not far from America. If you have fresh fresh water and food to supplement, the necessity of wine will become less important. Besides, there are still many tea bricks in the cabin, which will definitely be enough for everyone to eat when they go back."

Li Yixie couldn't help but persuade him a few words.

There is nothing else, I just want to drink wine.

"We still need to save some money. Although according to the chart provided by His Highness, we only need to walk forward for about a month to reach the New World, this continent is too big. Even if we just walk along the coastline, it will take several months. If we cannot find high-yield crops such as potatoes quickly, our return journey will be a big problem."

Li Geng knew very well the importance of tea and wine for long-distance navigation.

This is a lesson learned by the crew of the East China Sea fishery with their lives.

If these things are missing on the return trip, the loss may be several times more than when the departure is.

It is obvious that you can enjoy the fruits of victory when you return to the Tang Dynasty, but you just die on the road. What a pity?

"What you said is correct. Although His Highness, the King of Chu, talked about the characteristics of crops such as potatoes and corn, also gave us reference to the painting. But where can we find it, no one has any idea in his heart. I hope that the subsequent voyage will go smoothly!"

Li Yixie is now living in the fleet as Li Geng’s assistant.

Although he just proposed to send the crew a double the amount of wine, if Li Geng objected, he would definitely not continue to persist.

This is not a matter of principle.

...

Today, a new fleet was ushered in a new fleet, with a group of special guests on board.

As a fulcrum of the Tang Dynasty in the South China Sea, almost all ships traveling to and from the South China Sea will dock and replenish them in Puluo.

Today, Tang people living here have more than 300,000, and the number is still increasing.

Considering the merchants and slaves from other countries, the population here has exceeded 500,000, making it the largest city in Nanyang.

Here, there are many shops, and many merchants from Jiangnan Road go to Nanyang, basically go to Puluo and then return.

Although the goods purchased or sold in this way will be more expensive than buying them directly in Linyi countries, it saves a lot of trouble.

The most important thing is that the risk of this kind of operation is very low, and there is no need to worry about personal safety not being guaranteed.

The navy under the Puluo Zhongshibo Department is already the most powerful existence in the area. Ordinary pirates dare not easily enter the sea area under the Puluo Zhongshibo Department's jurisdiction.

As for other sea areas, that's another matter.

"Admiral Yang, the other party's fleet has docked!"

Next to the dock, Yang Qiwa, who had already received the news, brought a group of people to greet him.

"Let's go up and have a good friend to the boss."

Yang Qiwa took a deep breath, straightened her chest, and walked forward.

Although Li Chengqian was already an abolished prince, he is now just a commoner.

But, this is the former prince after all.

So when Yang Qiwa received the letter from Li Kuan arranged for someone to send him, she was also very nervous.

Li Chengqian was about to be exiled to Australia, and there were a large number of old subordinates of the Eastern Palace.

Although some of the people in the leadership were beheaded and made public, a large number of old subordinates were also resigned from being lighter.

With Puluo Zhong guarding Nanyang, Li Kuan was not worried about what Li Chengqian had in Australia.

After all, it is almost a big panic island now.

The only decent port developed is also Yongping Port controlled by the Chu Prince's Mansion.

Without the technical input of the Tang Dynasty, Li Chengqian could only be a farmer in Australia.

At this time, Li Chengqian, who was standing on the deck, was shocked when he saw the big city in front of him.

When he just left Chang'an City, Li Chengqian was in a very depressed mood.

As time passed and after the ship entered the sea, his mood gradually improved.

The vast sea has a huge impact on Li Chengqian, who has never seen the sea before.

The feeling of making his mind broader, and realizing that there is still a huge world in the world that he has never seen before, all of which make him feel a little more anticipated about the future.

Therefore, except for the inconvenience of disembarking at the various ports in the Tang Dynasty, after leaving the Tang Dynasty, Li Chengqian had to come down to take a look whenever he passed by a major port and when the ship was replenished, he would take a look.

However, there is a difference when there is comparison.

Seeing the prosperity of Chang'an City and seeing the cities of Linyi and other countries again, Li Chengqian became disappointed.

As we head south, there is basically no decent city.

This is true for countries close to the Tang Dynasty. Isn’t the distant Australia even more unlucky?

But I knew that when the fleet docked again, what appeared in my eyes would be such a giant city.

"I've seen His Highness the Crown Prince!"

When Li Chengqian stepped onto the land in Puluo, Yang Qiwa brought a group of people to meet him.

"Who are you?"

Li Chengqian looked at the official in front of him with caution.

Obviously, these people are Tang people.

"I am Yang Qiwa, the governor of the Maritime Navy stationed in Puluo, who received instructions from His Highness the King of Chu to treat His Highness the Prince."

Yang Qiwa maintained a little unfamiliarity while being polite.

There is no way. Even if a person with poor political sensitivity is, he will be cautious when he sees Li Chengqian, the deposed prince.

If it weren't for Li Kuan's instructions, Yang Qiwa would have been hiding far away.

I won't offend you, but I won't get close to you either.

"I am now an ordinary citizen, so Admiral Yang can call me Gao Ming. Now the prince of the Tang Dynasty is no longer me!"

When Li Chengqian heard that it was Li Kuan's arrangement, he felt a little more moved.
