After two days of sales, the fleet sold a batch of spices and porcelain and obtained a excess of 10,000 yuan in gold. According to the sales, Wenshen rewarded all crew members to varying degrees and distributed their wages to individuals. At the same time, the crew members were given two days off and could stroll around the city.

The rich crew quickly became the financial owners of Aden City. Casinos and brothels became the main patrons. In order for the crew to be infected with infectious diseases, they taught them some basic methods and techniques to identify diseases.

At the same time, soldiers were arranged to conduct military training for 600 black slaves. Half of the white slaves were women, and they were asked to be responsible for the food on the ship. Of course, there were more and more novice workers on the side to train and supervise to prevent unnecessary troubles. Since these thousand slaves basically had no complete clothes on them, Wenshen felt that he would come back to Hyundai and get a batch of clothes back.

Walking on the pedestrian street of Nanjing East Road, Shencheng, looking at the zombies rushing towards him from time to time, Wen Shen was too lazy to pay attention to them, but just flashed among them, and truly achieved that the zombies passed by without any leaves.

When I entered the Nike store and came to the warehouse behind, I looked at the various models of sportswear and shoes, and thought it would be a bit extravagant to wear such clothes for those slaves.

After thinking about it, Wenshen still transported all the clothes to the three ships of Dingyuan without hesitation and sent them to each slave according to their size. If anyone among the crew wants to wear such clothes, he can also get a set.

At the same time, Wenshen also searched for toiletries from the supermarket, and stipulated that everyone must take a bath once every three days. When all the slaves finished taking a shower and put on new clothes, they felt that the freshness that never came out from the inside out. This feeling made people feel very refreshing and comfortable, and they all thought they had found a good family.

Many slaves were children, and they looked particularly happy after putting on new clothes, especially those shoes, which were so comfortable that they couldn't help but run around on the deck.

Wen Shen stood in the distance, looking at the scene, and smiled in his heart: "I didn't expect that I could get excited if I helped others. This is really strange."

Three days later, the fleet left the Port of Aden and sailed south. On the way, while conducting military training for slaves, it also taught Chinese and implemented one-on-one cramming education. In addition, it was a big stick to not be given a meal if you couldn't learn it. After two months, most slaves could understand Song dialect and speak some simple sentences. The written language was still not good, but this was enough.

After two months of sailing, the fleet entered the Mediterranean Sea. The three continents of the Mediterranean, Europe, Asia and Africa, with many coastal countries and maritime trade flourished. Within a few days of entering the Mediterranean, we met more than a dozen large and small fleets.

When the passing merchants looked at the three ships of Dingyuan, who were full of iron armor, Wufan, and advancing at high speed in black smoke, they were all stunned. The three ships shattered their common sense. A circle of black slaves and white slaves with strange clothes on the side of the ship, standing on the side of the ship, they were even more surprised and thought to themselves: "I haven't heard of such a ship in the nearby kingdom."

These slaves looked at the envious eyes of the merchants in the past, and were secretly proud of themselves, thinking: "This is the life that people live!"

During this period, pirates who were ignorant of life and death came to rob the ship, but were bombarded by cannons and directly bombed to pieces and fed the sharks. Seeing the powerful force of their masters, the slaves were even more happy and felt that their future was bright.

One day later, the fleet entered the port city of Marseille, southwestern France.

Marseille was the largest port city in Europe at this time, with a population of nearly 30,000. Most of the goods from the East of Europe entered Europe from then on. Traffic merchants from all over Europe bought goods here and then transported the goods to various places. Among them, porcelain, silk, spices and iron from the East were his favorites.

But most of the people they saw were white Muslims and some black people, and it was the first time that they saw it among the yellow people. When the three ships of Dingyuan docked, a large number of people gathered at the dock to watch Wenshen and others on the ship, which made them very upset.

Wenshen stood on the side of the boat, looking at the Western Europeans who were wearing thick robes and covered in dirt on the pier, and didn't know how many days he hadn't washed, and thought to himself: "This is the medieval European, it's no different from beggars."

Not long after, a team of cavalry entered the dock during a series of beatings and scolding. The leader was a man wearing armor, bearded, yellow teeth, but still strong in the mouth, three ships were surprised. After a moment, he shouted to everyone on the side of the ship: "You are merchants from there."

Among the white slaves I bought before, many people from Western European countries acted as translators. This is why the white slaves were captured is said to be related to the Crusades. The first crusades in Western Europe took place more than ten years ago, and most of these people were descendants of the soldiers.

"I am a merchant from the Song Dynasty in the East!"

After hearing this, the man frowned and asked his subordinates around him: "How do you know the Song Dynasty?"

"I don't know! But looking at their ships and clothes, they should be richer." A subordinate looked at the giant ship and said enviously.

"I heard from my father that there was a rich country to the east of the evil Muslim empire, where gold was everywhere, porcelain was as cheap as grass, spices were as cheap as grass, and weapons were as cut as iron as mud. The people in that country were yellow. I think that country was what they called the Song Dynasty."

The father of another subordinate participated in the Crusades and told him some of his experiences.

When the leader heard this, he felt immediately. After dismounting and saluting Wenshen, he shouted, "You are here to do business, I don't know what goods you have brought."

"We bring more goods, more than you imagine."

...

When boxes of porcelain, spices, soaps, matches, glass, silk, grey cloth, steel knives, and tea were carried ashore by black slaves and placed in turn for sale, the city of Marseille went crazy. After the Western Europeans around him learned the news, they all rushed to Marseille. And the team of knights had to maintain order.

The leader came to Wenshen and said very respectfully: "Dear the guest, can you sell all these goods to me?"

"Can you afford it?"

The leader looked at the boxes of goods and felt a little confused: "Why do I put so many treasures in front of me but I have no money?"

Three days later, Wenshen plundered all the precious metals in the entire Marseille City and the surrounding areas, 50,000 taels of gold and 200,000 taels of silver into his pocket. Seeing that he couldn't squeeze out the oil, he decided to drive east and go to Rome to take a look. He thought there should be some inventory there.

At the same time, the news that the merchants of the Song Dynasty drove giant ships and carried a large number of treasures. The news spread quickly in Western Europe. A large number of traveling merchants and unemployed vagrants slowly gathered in Marseille. Wenshen, who was originally planning to set off, saw that someone came to Marseille with gold and silver, so he decided to stay for a while.

If anything is too much, it will be worthless, so Wenshen stopped selling various goods and started selling some drugs. These drugs were basically cheap oral antibiotics.

Even so, the magical effect of antibiotics immediately detonated the entire Marseille. Wenshen sold one antibiotic for one or two gold, but people still got up and snatched it.

The timid nobles also began to join the rush to buy. At the same time, more and more people came to visit. Even King Louis VI of France was alarmed and sent people to buy with a large amount of gold.

The huge financial resources displayed by the fleet made Western Europeans yearn for the country of Song Dynasty. So some traveling merchants planned to follow the fleet to the Song Dynasty. Of course, some people were embarrassed and planned to hijack these three ships behind their backs.
