A leisurely city for solo travelers

Chapter 290 Getting Ready
Today's world is not just about sailing, it is really a refined and realistic world.The style of the Qing government is notorious. It really made this group of military bandits anxious, and my family directly GAME OVER.

Ling'er moved the chair for Fang Xian to sit down, pinched his shoulders and said with a smile: "Brother Xian was so smart that he scared the bad guys away!"

Yu Yan blushed and said: "I will say the same thing, but I was a little scared when I saw them just now. I'm sorry Uncle Xian, I should stand up at a time like this."

"Hey, I don't blame you. Girls can't compete with these bastards." Fang Xian leaned on Ling'er's belly and sighed leisurely, "It's not easy to mess around in this world. We set sail as promised..."

Lin Yueru cursed while cleaning the yard: "Will these dog soldiers come back again?"

"It's very possible." Fang Xian smiled wryly, and began to study the relationship between the characters.

It seems that this aspect of things is very simple.

The youngest of the Fang family married a principal wife, had two concubines, gave birth to a daughter, and raised a bodyguard.

Fang Xian called up the interface, and now he still has 3 gold coins (game gold coins) at home, which is about 150 taels of silver as the officers and soldiers said, which is really stretched.

However, the Fang family is a local tyrant after all, and they run some aquatic businesses. With a few small fishing boats, they hire some poor people to go fishing, and then package and sell the fish to the exchange. They can also get thousands of gold coins into their accounts every month. .

The income in this area is equivalent to the fixed salary of the system, which is difficult to adjust. Most of the trade still depends on the exchange.

If it was the original young master of the Fang family, I'm afraid he would spend his whole life like this.

Now...even if Fang Xian wants to mess around, the women will not agree, after all, our journey is the vast ocean, not a rural fishing village.

Thinking of this, Fang Xian first found something that looked like the spiritual tablet of his parents in this world, bowed a few times, and then took out all the savings hidden at home from under the spiritual tablet.

"Ladies, let's go! Shopping!"

Darba: "Let's go, young master! I want to wear new clothes!"

"..."

In the age of great voyages, if you want to make money, you need to sail, and if you want to sail, you need a boat. The few fishing boats at home are likely to capsize when they encounter some wind and waves. It is necessary to build a larger cargo ship.

A group of people rushed to the pier with the ambition of five continents and seven oceans!
Macau is really a magical place. Even though the development is so unbearable, there are still such high-level shipyards.

Like most port NPCs, Uncle Shipyard has a popular face. After Fang Xian told him that he wanted to buy a ship, an attribute selection map appeared.

There are 6 types of warships that can be selected in Macau Port.They are large, medium and small Chinese sailboats and Japanese paddle boats.The appearance of Japanese ships in China's territory is not to blame for the old man. The design of the shipyard in the game is based on the continent, and the ship types on the same continent are basically the same.

Just like their names, the advantages and disadvantages of Chinese sailboats and Japanese paddle boats are obvious. Chinese sailboats have large sails, sail faster, and are suitable for ocean sailing; while Japanese paddle boats have only one sail and are mainly rowed by coolies. , is actually a true portrayal of Japan's desperate spirit. The only advantage of this kind of ship is that it can take some advantage in hand-to-hand combat, after all, there are many people.The boats that the Japanese pirates came to their homes mainly used these things.

fighting?There is only one thing called Daerba around the Fang family's youngest, who can barely fight. To deal with the bunch of cut-section men with leucorrhea, let's wait until we have cannons to talk about the battle.

As a businessman, he must choose China sailboat at this time.

Chinese sailboats cost 1700 gold coins for small, 15000 for medium, and 74000 for large.

Among them, as long as it reaches a medium size, it can open up to 5 warehouses and run merchants, which is actually the best choice. If it is a large size, it can mainly load more forts and sailors, which are used for war escort.For example, the Fujian navy mainly has large sailing ships. This kind of navy does not do business, and spends a lot of money wandering around.

After choosing a Chinese sailboat, it was natural to make some modifications.

The principle of a businessman - interests first.

All the sailor forts are unnecessary, and the miscellaneous ones can be avoided, and the transformations of maximizing the warehouse are all very familiar.

After a short period of design, a warm Chinese sailing ship was launched into the sea, and the Fang family Navy finally had a flagship!
After buying the boat and rebuilding it, I still have around 14000 gold coins left on me, which is more than enough for a boat to do business with.

With the boat, the next step is naturally the sailor who is fooling around.

A bunch of people hurried to the tavern again.

Guided by the map, everyone came to a bungalow.

The door of the bungalow is open, and even in broad daylight, there are little red lanterns on both sides.

A man's instinct told Fang Xian - this is a good place!
After all, flashy things like taverns and bars were not very popular in ancient China. First, I am a big Chinese. Since the places where I eat can drink, why do I have to set up a tavern alone?The second is that most ordinary people don’t have a lot of money, so it’s great to be able to eat out, and they even find a place to drink?
And the place to fill this vacancy is naturally the brothel that everyone loves to see.

Here is a name for the brothel. The brothel in the Tang and Song Dynasties was a very elegant place, similar to the current XX Guild Hall. Only very differentiated and very rich people were allowed to enter. After entering, everyone drank and wrote poems, and then the brothel MM Choose the most talented one, and sing through the curtain, that's enough, you can go home.On the second day and the third day, it went back and forth like this, constantly throwing money to the brothel.

When the MM in the brothel appreciates your talent enough, the curtain is lifted, and then we can meet. MM will talk to you about a song and accompany you for a drink or a bite. As for whether you can do something you love, it depends on your luck.

Most of the famous poets in the Tang and Song Dynasties were educated in brothels, which were a social gathering place for high-end intellectuals and a treasure trove of free and irresponsible love.

To say so much is to say that brothels ≠ brothels, at least that was the case back then.

Places such as brothels and kilns are disdainful for tall, handsome and rich people. They are the places where our common people live.

Later, with the changes of the times, brothels gradually declined, and kilns gradually emerged. People gradually confused the two, and slightly misunderstood the meaning of brothels.

In fact... the real brothel has always existed, in the world of tall, handsome and rich.

In front of Fang Xian's eyes, there was obviously a quasi-brothel.

Fang Xian clenched his fists tightly and said calmly, "Ladies, I will go in and recruit sailors later, ladies!"

The ladies looked at each other, but they couldn't say anything. This is the only place to recruit sailors.

"10 minutes." Yueru started the timer.

"No no no!" Linger hurriedly said, "3 minutes."

"Oh?!" Yueru was shocked, "It's only... just 3 minutes?"

Ling'er blushed and remained silent.

After hearing this, Yu Yan looked at Fang Xian with disdain in her eyes.

Fang Xian had no choice but to bow his head and enter the yard. It must be that Linger was dissatisfied with the recent night life and took the opportunity to complain.

Although the kiln is rotten, it has all internal organs. There is a place for eating and drinking in a big room in the middle, and a circle of small partition bungalows around the outside. It must be a place to do business.

Fang Xian just arrived here for the first time, and he was very apprehensive.

Anxiously, the time passed by every minute and every second. In order not to make the wives suspicious, I had no choice but to bite the bullet and rub against the edge of a partition.

There were some not-so-good crashing sounds from inside.

Fang Xian wanted to wait for the other person to finish their work before chatting, but he only had 3 minutes.

In desperation, he knocked on Tuqiang beside the curtain.

"Excuse me, are the friends inside interested in going to sea?"

The sound inside stopped for a few seconds, and then there was a reckless curse, and some utensils were thrown out.

"Sorry, you are busy, you are busy..." Fang Xian resolutely avoided and rushed to the second partition.

Its ending can be imagined, and Fang Xian also felt a deep headache. Shipbuilding is easy to recruit people, so there is no labor market...

There is no choice but to change the battlefield and go to the big house.

After entering the big house, the eldest sister finally received him.

The eldest sister looked cold and asked him what he meant by coming.

Sure enough, it's unscientific to do these things by yourself, and you need to find an NPC if you need something.

"Miss, let me recruit some sailors to go to sea."

"Oh." The eldest sister turned around and yelled at the men who were drinking, and immediately came over with a few public faces.

Fang Xianshen thought it was a stupid act to go to the tiger's den just now.

If there is no war, Chinese sailing ships save manpower. Fang Xian selected a dozen hard-covered men, and after telling them his ship's number, these guys went to the port to get on the ship and get busy.

Until the time he left the brothel, Fang Xian still didn't understand why these people came to the brothel... This must be the difference between Eastern and Western cultures, the Eastern scene of the Western model is too tangled.

It's just that Fang Xian didn't expect that when he came out punctually, he would receive even more contemptuous looks.

It's not easy to be a man.

In the Age of Discovery, if you want to do business in a port, you must first obtain the consent of the local leaders. Only after you have a certain degree of occupancy in the port, the exchange will sell an appropriate amount of goods to you.

Fortunately, the Fang family has lived here for many years, and they have some friendship with the village head of the exchange. From the very beginning, they owned 15% of Macau's share.Unless you want to make military investment in the future, you don't have to hang on to the village chief.

Now there are 5 warehouses in the sailing ship. What remains to be done is to load these warehouses with the most reliable goods and send them to the most reliable ports for sale.

The staff of the Macau Exchange were old acquaintances with the Fang family, and when they saw a group of people coming, they greeted Darba politely.

It is unimaginable that Dalba is actually the accountant of the Fang family. No wonder the family is in ruins.

In Fang Xian's memory, the initial goods in Macau should only be [tea], [lychee] and [ceramics]. Looking at it again this time, there are actually more [oysters].

It seems that my role still has advantages. I hire people to fish all the year round and develop new products for Macau.

If I remember correctly, there seems to be no such thing as oysters in the original game. Isn’t this a product of the degeneration of the Western bourgeoisie!

No matter how much it is, the price of less than 200 per warehouse is too cheap, and you can't lose money. 1000 gold coins resolutely fill up the 5 warehouses.

Everything was ready, Fang Xian seemed to have seen the gold coin beckoning to him.
