But the galleon is different. The galleon is capable of truly ocean-going sailing.
And Daqin has a compass.
With a compass, the compass can tell the direction when going out to sea, but not in some strange waters, and prevent the crew from losing their way in the vast sea.
Losing direction is tantamount to death.
But not everyone can have such good luck, wandering around, and even drifting back to Daqin.
Xu Fu, who retired from old age and returned to his hometown, hereby settled in Langya County. Although he was not as obsessed with whether there were immortals in the sea, he was not as obsessed as Xiangxi.
Today's Xu Fu no longer dares to show others as an alchemist. In Xu Fu's own opinion, Xu Fu is just an ordinary citizen of Great Qin.
Now that the fairy mountain Xu Fu had sworn to believe has been shattered.
It is useless to be obsessed with immortality.
The alchemist showed others, just to lose Xu Fu's face.
Zhao Sheng once sent a servant to tell Xu Fu that since he didn't call himself an alchemist and returned to his hometown, wouldn't it be that his sailing skills were in vain.
Zhao Sheng's meaning was very simple, that is, to tell Xu Fu to start teaching sailing instructions in Langya County.
Compared with ordinary people, Xu Fu really needs to know a little more about navigation.
With Xu Fu's knowledge of navigation, even if the ship is at sea and the compass fails, he can still distinguish the direction by stargazing.
Xu Fu bowed to Zhao Sheng's intention.
Any businessman who wants to go to sea will ask the crew at sea to learn some knowledge about sea navigation.
After all, these things can come in handy when sailing at sea.
Going out to sea for trade is not like fishing at sea.
This is ocean voyage.
……
Langya County.
pier.
Several months after the opening of the sea order was implemented.
Hundreds of giant ships of astonishing size have already appeared on the pier.
And these ships are all from the hands of merchants.
On the wharf, there are also workers who are constantly hired to move the goods.
There are many items such as silk and satin, colored glaze, etc. These are low in cost, but they can usually be exchanged for huge wealth.
The order to go to sea is equivalent to an opportunity.
Ordinary people would not take this risk.
But the vast Great Qin has a population of nearly ten million, how can there be no one with the spirit of adventure.
Take out all the wealth in the family, and gamble to get rich by going to sea.
There are so many caravans on the Silk Road.
After Sima Cang traveled to the Western Regions, there were already countless businessmen who crowded into it continuously.
But this opening order is different.
The current sea trade will definitely be the first batch of sea trade.
In other words, they were the first batch of people to eat crabs.
Hundreds of ships, after loading the goods, began to go to sea.
boom!
boom!
Several deafening explosions were heard by the crew on the ship.
The crew members in Langya County all knew why there was such an astonishing explosion.
And it seems to have become accustomed to this deafening explosion.
This is the daily training of the Daqin Navy.
The explosion was also due to test artillery.
Such an astonishing power, although shocking, also brought peace of mind to the seafaring crew.
With such astonishing strength, the Great Qin Navy, if they encounter pirates when they go out to sea, what is there to worry about?
The Daqin navy is so strong, how dare those barbarians on the sea plunder the Daqin caravan.
In Xianyang City.
"I've seen His Royal Highness the Crown Prince!" Chen Ping said with a bow.
It was Zhao Sheng who asked Chen Ping to do this order to open the sea.
"Recently, there are tens of thousands of ships and thousands of caravans going out to sea, and the number of caravans going out to sea for trade every day is increasing!" Chen Ping reported truthfully.
Sitting upright, Zhao Sheng nodded.
As for the sea order, as long as you are a businessman, you will be eyeing one sooner or later.
After all, Xu Fu went to Fusang to confirm the world map drawn by Zhao Sheng.
Of course Zhao Sheng did it on purpose.
Go to sea, go to find, go to find the treasure on the sea, you are the next sea...
The corners of Zhao Sheng's mouth turned upwards, not so secondary, but the caravan going out to sea is equivalent to the hand extended by Da Qin.
While seeking benefits, the caravan is also helping Daqin understand the barbarians and countries on the sea.
It is convenient for future battles.
As for the pirates at sea, to be honest, Zhao Sheng couldn't wish for it now.
