Royal Gold Magistrate
Chapter 855 Why Didn’t The Fleet Return?
Lakeside of Eastern Suburb University.
Fang Zhengyi and Li Yuanzhao were fishing by the lake with a fishing rod.
Although this lake is an artificial lake, it is maintained very meticulously on weekdays. After Fang Zhengyi established the school, he even ordered people to throw a lot of big fish into it.
Among them are koi.
Naturally, fishing is not allowed on weekdays, but Principal Fang is tired today, and feels that the privilege can be a little capricious.
The enthusiastic speeches of the new girls' school students made him feel a little overwhelmed.
Originally, they were not allowed to ask questions, or asked other teachers directly, but the students were very enthusiastic and always attracted him.
Fang Zhengyi could only run away.
After all, as a college graduate, isn't it embarrassing for you to ask me questions about junior high school students? !
So in order to rest, he brought the prince here to fish.
The afternoon was calm and windless, and there were not many people by the lake. The two of them had been sitting quietly with poles for four to ten minutes.
Li Yuanzhao's body seemed to be full of maggots, and he twisted left and right: "I said, Lao Fang, is there any fish in this lake? It's boring to sit here, come back to the palace with me."
Fangzheng smiled dismissively, of course people like you don't understand the hobbies of mature men.
"Your Highness, there are a lot of fish here. I often fish, so I can't be wrong."
"Hehe, I didn't expect you to be a master at fishing?"
"What master, I am the grand master!"
"Master, why didn't you catch a fish?" Li Yuanzhao said contemptuously.
"The guy is not good at things. If you want to do good things first, you must first sharpen your tools. The essence of fishing is actually making nests, and this broken bamboo pole...affects my performance." Fang Zhengyi said lightly.
"Hey! I hit it!" Before Fangzheng could finish his sentence, Li Yuanzhao's fishing rod was suddenly tightened!
It seems that the harvest is not small.
Li Yuanzhao got up and started to play with the big fish in the lake with an excited face.
"Good guy, he's a big guy!"
The two sides wrestled for a while, and a large black-gray fish weighing about ten kilograms gradually emerged from the water.
Fangzheng's eyes are tearing apart...
"Your Highness, I'll help you!" "Don't come here!"
Not listening to Li Yuanzhao's dissuasion, Fangzheng went forward together to hold the fishing rod in Li Yuanzhao's hand, and shook it indiscriminately.
The big fish took the opportunity to flick...unhooked and swam away.
Li Yuanzhao stood on the shore dumbfounded, and when he realized it, he said angrily, "What are you doing?"
Fangzheng said regretfully: "I just want to help a group of Highnesses, but I didn't expect this fish to be so cunning. We didn't bring fish guards, so there is no place to install it."
"It's okay, it's okay, I'll help His Highness catch another one right away."
"Oh, despicable villain... I think you are jealous of me." Li Yuanzhao sneered.
He leaned over to pick up the bamboo pole, adjusted the fishing line, and continued fishing.
Fangzheng smiled resentfully, aimed at the location where the big fish disappeared just now, and threw out the fishing rod...
"I've been hit again!"
Within 5 minutes, Li Yuanzhao got up and pulled the fishing rod again with ecstasy.
Fangzheng's eyes were about to burst, and he got up immediately.
From the corner of his eye, Li Yuanzhao had already spotted his movement, so he dodged and hid aside.
The fishing master's plot failed.
But... this move was too big, and unfortunately the big fish unhooked again.
Li Yuanzhao slammed the fishing rod resentfully: "Fuck you! Find two boats, and we'll catch our own fish!"
Fangzheng's eyes rolled wildly.
No, this kid's novice benefit period, luck is so good, isn't he being compared to him?
Then what is the face of my fishing master?
When he is lucky, you have to fish next to him in order to get something.
"Your Highness, speaking of ships, what happened to our fleet? Is there any news?" Fang Zheng changed the subject at first.
Li Yuanzhao was stunned for a moment, and his attention was indeed diverted.
He sat down again and said, "Hey, that's right, the fleet has been away for so long and there is no news."
"I heard the discussion at the court meeting. The navy is still practicing, and the shipyards in the south are still developing and building ships. This sum of money is huge. The fleet exploring the west has not yet returned. The Ministry of Finance is in a hurry and wants to reduce the number of ships. The division and the development of new ships. The Ministry of War also intends to reduce it, and transfer this part of the investment to the research of firearms."
Fangzheng tensed up: "When did the discussion take place? Why didn't the minister hear any news?"
"It's just two days since I came back from the Kingdom of Jin, because the war expenditure exceeded expectations, so I said this."
"However, my father said that since it is an unknown world, exploration cannot be accomplished overnight. If the news of the fleet's failure comes back, I plan to send the fleet to sea again. If there is no hope for the second time, I will decide not to support it. Everyone agrees. Then it was over.”
Fangzheng breathed a sigh of relief.
It seems that the Western legends he wove in the past had lost all appeal to courtiers.
After all, if real money is invested and there is no return, everyone will worry that it is impossible to do this.
Fortunately, the old father-in-law is still sensible.
Perhaps with the greatest enemy of the north eliminated, his interest in exploring the outside world increased greatly.
However, the fleet has not come back so far, and it has been a long time, and the vast sea does not know what kind of risk they have encountered.
"Old Fang, do you think they will be wiped out at sea?" Li Yuanzhao asked.
Fangzheng panicked in his heart: "Your Highness, don't talk nonsense, the whole country has carefully prepared to go to sea, how could something happen. Those sailors are all experienced, strong and strong, and there are supplies carefully prepared by the minister, there is absolutely no problem."
"Maybe they have discovered a new continent and are exploring outside."
"New World? What is that?"
"It is an undeveloped continent, only some primitive people, no civilization, an undeveloped virgin land."
"Maybe it's full of fertile land, novel animals, and all kinds of mineral deposits..."
Novelty animal?Li Yuanzhao fell into fantasy.
Fang Zhengyi kept sighing in his heart.
Who knows, with good luck, it may be that they have discovered a new continent, or they may have reached the hometown of those four foreigners, Fika Country.
He might be on his way back now.
However, the biggest possibility he didn't want to admit was that he was wiped out at sea.
After all, he knows nothing about how big this world is and what risks are at sea.
So many soldiers, and his poor little beggar brother Laigouer, I don't know what's going on...
He has finally changed from a beggar to a good young man with a bright future, but he has to take this kind of risk again.
The young man doesn't know how harsh the natural environment is. If he had known that he should have tried to persuade him to stay...
Fang Zhengyi was thinking in a daze.
Suddenly, Li Yuanzhao yelled.
"This palace has caught a fish again!"
"My grass!"
Fang Zhengyi was about to make a move, but when he turned his head, he saw Li Yuanzhao slipping onto the bank with a big fish bag.
Showing two rows of big white teeth, he was smirking at himself.
The fish in his hand was a fat koi carp with an arm length.
Isn't this the treasure of Zhenhu!He paid a fortune for it!
Fangzheng took a deep breath... This kid is a traitor, and he only shouted when he caught a fish?
"Put it back, Your Highness, this fish is..."
Before Fangzheng finished speaking, Li Yuanzhao got up and patted the dust off his pants.
Then he grabbed the fishing rope and swung it vigorously, the giant koi slapped on his back, actually lifting the fish on his back!
The koi was crackling and struggling on his back, Li Yuanzhao said calmly: "There are no fish. Sitting is also boring, let's go back after strolling around in school."
"..."
.....
It was getting late, and it was already gray and gray.
Fangzheng walked behind Li Yuanzhao in a nonchalant way, smelling the vaguely fishy smell.
The former is still in high spirits, and his legs are pounding very fast.
That poor koi gave up struggling early, and flicked and flicked behind his back, silently accusing the crimes of human beings with a dead fish eye.
As soon as Fangzheng stretched out his hand, he said in a hoarse voice, "Go home...the fish stinks."
"That's right, I haven't visited the women's courtyard yet! Let's go and see if they study hard at night or not!"
......
(The first day of Jiechong punch card)
