It took nearly four years from Daqin to America.
Ever since, Ying Zheng continued to ask the crew members: "Is the distance between Daqin and America so far?"
"Why did it take nearly four years?"
Judging from the world map, the required voyage time is not so long.
However, it took four years for the ships sailing in remote oceans to successfully reach the Americas.
Could it be that the sea route is more difficult than the land route?
Facing Yingzheng's inquiry, the crew explained to Yingzheng one after another: "In Dahaishan, there is no end to the horizon, and it is especially easy to lose your way at sea!"
"If you followed the original route, it wouldn't take so long, it's just because you deviated from the route and lost your way!"
Chapter 269
"Then now, you are ordered to go to America again, are you confident that you will not deviate from the direction?"
Prince Zhao Sheng, who had been silent for a long time, asked these crew members at this time.
Facing Zhao Sheng's question, the crew all answered at this time:
"Please rest assured, His Royal Highness, we have successfully arrived in America once, and we will be able to successfully arrive in America again!"
As crew members, they have this confidence.
"It took four years to go to sea, but there are still people who are willing to continue to go to America?"
Zhao Sheng raised his own questions to the group of successfully returned crew members.
Successfully arriving in America does not mean that there is no need to go to America again.
It is definitely necessary to send ships to establish a stable route.
From Daqin to America, and the route that can return to Daqin from America smoothly.
After hearing Zhao Sheng's words, the crew members looked at each other in blank dismay.
After finally returning from the sea, now I have to go to sea again.
For them, there are huge risks involved.
There will definitely be crew members who will choose to refuse, and are unwilling to embark on another adventure.
Zhao Sheng seemed to see the embarrassment of this group of crew members, and did not make strong demands.
"His Royal Highness, I am willing to continue to go to sea!"
"His Royal Highness, I am also willing to go to sea for Daqin and arrive in America for the second time!"
Fusuke is still in America!
If all of them refuse to go to sea, wouldn't it be necessary to have a new crew and spend another four years.
Embarking on the adventure of finding America again?
But with these crews who made it to America, join the ship again.
Definitely reduce the risk.
For this group of crew members, Zhao Sheng showed a satisfied smile, and signaled to the waiter that he would be willing to join the sailing crew again.
Extract crew members' names onto paper.
Now that the name has been written, it means that there is no medicine for regret.
If you refuse to go to sea, you are a deserter!
After knowing this relationship, some crew members still wrote their names.
Among them, a group of crew members showed embarrassment when faced with writing their names.
Among this group of crew members, there must be some who are unwilling to embark on the road of sailing to sea again.
Zhao Sheng said at this time: "If anyone wants to stay at home with his family, don't force it!"
Hearing this, some crew members showed joy, and hurriedly bowed to Zhao Sheng and said:
"Thank you, Your Royal Highness!"
Some crew members cast grateful glances at Zhao Sheng.
Unexpectedly, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince was so benevolent that he did not force them to continue their ocean voyage.
The reward for meritorious service is over.
At the same time, Zhao Sheng continued to say to the crew:
"After four years of sailing, I believe that you are already very tired. I will give you three months to spend time with your family. After three months, you will go sailing."
"If you want to settle in America, you can bring your family with you when you go out to sea!"
"America, like Daqin, is a territory belonging to Daqin. I believe that you have already arrived in America, and you already know that America is suitable for living!"
The crew members nodded. The climate in America is suitable, and it can be said that it is no different from Daqin.
If they settled in the Americas, there would be a large area of land and unknown boundaries, which could be used for the Qin people who settled in the Americas to open up wasteland!
It can be said that America is full of wealth.
The first group of people who settled in America, although it will be harder to open up wasteland.
But after the wasteland is opened up, the benefits of the first batch of settlements in the Americas will also be there!
The crew members are willing to settle in America, of course it is the best.
But even if they don't want to go, they will also arrange for the Qin people to settle in America.
"promise!"
"Go back!"
The crew retreated one after another.
Zhao Sheng noticed keenly that Brother Zheng frowned.
"Father, are you worried about Fusu?"
