Chapter 1356 The small snail number is blowing

A simple seafood cut noodles with a simple breakfast was not only recognized by the big foodie Yu Wuya, but also appreciated by all the family and servants.

Although not everyone can satisfy their satisfaction when eating it, after tasting a few seafood noodles, everyone thinks that this will be the most convenient and fastest delicacy for sailing in the future. The wheat stone mill is prepared on the boat, pick up some sea shells on the beach, and prepare more sauces and seasonings. You can make it anytime if you want to eat it, and the taste is softer and softer than dry noodles.

"Xi'er, isn't the seafood cut noodles made by Dad delicious?"

On the big ship, standing on the deck of the bow, watching the boatman under the boat busy packing up food and drink and lifting it on the boat, Chen Xu picked up his eldest daughter and asked with a smile.

"It's delicious. Xi'er likes shell noodles the most, but there are no sea shells in Xianyang. What should I do if Xi'er can't eat it!" Chen Xi said with a pout.

"Not afraid, Daddy will ask the caravan to bring some scallops to Xianyang. At that time, you can open a seafood noodle restaurant in Xianyang. Xier can go and eat it when she wants to eat it!"

"Dad is the best!" Chen Xi hugged Chen Xu's neck and kissed him hard on the face.

"Xi'er is coming down soon. You're so old, so let your father hug you!" Ying Shiman Shui and Meng Wan and other wives and concubines packed their luggage and came out of the cabin with their two daughters who could not walk. Seeing the father and daughter so close, Ying Shiman quickly walked up to criticize her daughter.

"It's okay, I can't hold you if you get older!" Chen Xu waved his hand with a smile.

"I really don't want to leave. I'm leaving this time. I don't know when I will have the chance to come to such a beautiful beach to play again!" Meng Wan said reluctantly, holding her daughter Yanxia.

"I think I can come here anytime. I can get there for three days from Xianyang to Qijun. It will take a carriage to the beach of Langya for a total of no more than six days. However, Langya is not as fun as Wuzhong, and Wuzhong is not as fun as Nanhai. Next time I have time, I will take you to the big island in the South China Sea to play. It is extremely warm all year round, the beach is more beautiful, and there are all kinds of flowers, fruits and seafood. At that time, we can also build a row of wooden houses on the beach, eat delicious food, swim, row, and dive..."

"Husband, don't say it, let's not say anything, we don't want to go back to Xianyang!" Ying Shiman said with a longing look on Chen Xu's face.

"I originally planned to take you to Taiwan to see this time, but unfortunately, you will be seasick when the sea is bumpy. After you go back, you must exercise well and swim more. There are beautiful scenery and food everywhere in the world. If you can't go, you will regret it for the rest of your life!" Chen Xu said with a smile.

"What my husband said is that we are also very distressed when seasickness is happening, but today is much better than yesterday. I feel a little dizzy as soon as I get on the boat yesterday!"

"Marty, Chen Xia and the others are back!" A guard who suddenly stood on the top of the cabin shouted loudly.

"Ask everyone to get on the boat and prepare to unveil the cables and set sail!"

Chen Xu ordered that the boatmen and crew on the two large ships immediately began to get busy. The unzip cables were unzipped, the anchors were raised, and the sails were raised. More than ten minutes passed. When Chen Xia and a group of musket team members escorted the fishermen of men, women, young and old to the beach, all the set sail preparations had been completed.

"Help help get on the boat quickly!"

With Chen Xia and others' loud greetings, several crew members got off the boat along the gangway and soon got five people up, one was the black and thin young fisherman just now, and a white woman, a black and thin woman in her twenties and two children, one big and one little boy, the older boy was five or six years old, naked and wearing nothing, black and thin, and the younger one was carrying it on his body with a bamboo basket.

"Woooo~~"

After everyone got on the boat, with the sound of a few oxen horns, the two large ships began to adjust the main sail side sails, and soon they pounded slightly against the wind and waves and slowly drove away from the simple dock.

The two ships were fifty feet apart, and the sails were swaying in flags. In just a moment, they went out of the bay, facing the extremely open blue sea and blue sky, looking at the fishing boats still cruising back and forth on the sea, and looking at the narrow bay that was getting farther and farther away, a group of women and children were all reluctant to leave, especially Chen Xi.

"Dad, Xi'er still wants to play on the beach!" Chen Xi hugged Chen Xu's arm tightly and cried.

"Don't make trouble Xi'er. Daddy has government affairs, so how can he play with us every day!" Ying Shiman's voice was slightly stern.

"Be good, Dad will definitely bring you here to play next time. Remember to bring those beautiful shells back to give to the classmates at school. By the way, take out the shells you picked up, and Dad will teach you to make some fun things!"

"Well~" Chen Xi was instantly distracted by Chen Xu, and pulled Yu Ji and a few little maids to the cabin. He quickly lifted out a large basket of shells of various shapes and colors, and fell on the deck with a thud.

When Wukong saw the excitement, he immediately jumped down from the high mast and fell into a pile of shells. He picked up one and dug it in it with his claws. He threw it to one side when he found that there was no meat. He picked up another one and then threw it to one side. In an instant, the shells on the deck flew around and rolled down everywhere.

"Broken monkey, you can't eat these. Don't throw my shells around!" Chen Xi shouted at the monkey.

"Squeak~" the monkey grimaced at Chen Xi.

"Hmph, when I returned to Xianyang, I opened a seafood noodle restaurant, and I won't cook noodles for you!" Chen Xi scolded with annoyedness.

Wukong seemed to understand, jumped to Chen Xi and bowed, then jumped around and picked up the shells he threw out one by one.

Chen Xu ignored the conflict between the child and the pet. He also became interested in looking at the pile of colorful and strange shells. He sat on the deck and pulled it out a fist-sized conch shell, blew it in his ear and said, "Wow, there is a sound of waves in the shell!"

"Really, Daddy, tell me!" Chen Xi immediately left the monkey and ran over.

"Come on, let's hear it for Xi'er. I heard that every conch will keep the tide sound of the sea in the shell..." Chen Xu smiled and put the conch shell on his daughter's ear.

"Wow, there is really a tide sound, it sounds very nice!" Chen Xi shouted in surprise.

"Brother Xiaoxu, let me know..." Yu Ji also sat down next to Chen Xu, leaned against Chen Xu's hand and listened to it, and nodded in surprise.

"In fact, conch can also be made into conch sizes, which are as beautiful and nice as a whistle. You just need to drill a small hole here..."

"Then Daddy, make one for me!"

"Okay, Daddy makes one for you..."

Chen Xu selected a suitable size among the pile of shells, pulled out a dagger and gently began to cut the tip of the oblique conch, explaining the principle while cutting it. Chen Xi, Yu Ji and a group of little maids all sat beside each other with anticipation on their faces and watched carefully.

"Is your husband really a pampering Xi'er?"

"Yes, I have never heard of any Qinghou who is so close to his children. Will this continue to spoil Xi'er?"

"My husband acts differently, otherwise how could we be so happy and happy? Xi'er's fate is good, and we are also lucky!"

"Well, let's go and play with each other for a while. We stand up and bump, and I'm afraid we'll be seasick again in a while!"

Shui Qingrou Ying Shiman Meng Wan and Chun Xia Qiu and the four concubines of Chun Xia Qiu and Winter, holding two daughters who could not walk, sat down around Chen Xu and began to play with these colorful shells together. At the same time, they watched Chen Xu seriously make the conch number. After seeing it, Shui Qingrou couldn't help but choose one, pulled out the dark meteorite iron dagger and began to dig holes in the conch.

"Husband, is that right?"

"Yes, that's it. The hole should be smaller. It's better to have a bamboo whistle inserted into it..."

The distance from Zhoushan to Huangpu Port is about 400 miles. It is now heading against the wind and it takes at least eight hours to arrive. Therefore, it is too late to pass through Hangzhou Bay to stop near the Yangtze River Estuary to rest. I will arrive at Huangpu Port at noon tomorrow.

This speed is already very fast compared to the fishing boats that catch fish on the nearby sea, but Chen Xu still looks as slow as a snail. The speed of the sea yacht in later generations easily exceeds forty knots, which is about 70 kilometers per hour. If it is a motorboat, the speed can even exceed 100 kilometers, and it only takes two hours to reach Huangpukou.

But for now, Chen Xu could only ride on the Liaoning, the largest sea boat on the earth today, and slowly heading towards his destination.

"Didi~~" After half an hour of sailing, Chen Xu's first conch number was finally completed. He was able to blow the sound when he was close to his mouth.

"It's ringing, Daddy, give it to me!" Chen Xi waited for a long time, and even forgot about the feeling of seasickness. Seeing that the conch made by Dad finally succeeded, she became excited in an instant.

"No, don't worry, drill a small hole here, put a thread on it and hang it around your neck..."

"Chunxiang went to my dressing box to get a red silk thread!" Ying Shiman ordered happily.

"Brother Xiaoxu will make one for me too!" Yu Ji, who is already fourteen years old, still has a girlish mentality. She was jealous of Chen Xi having a new toy, so she shook Chen Xu's arm and begged.

"Okay, don't shake, don't shake, breakfast is coming out!" Chen Xu smiled bitterly, and had to choose a suitable size to start making small snails again.

Later generations went to the beach to play. Whether it was on the roadside stalls or night markets, the most common ones were various shell crafts, bracelets, necklaces, snail numbers, and a small snail number cost ten yuan. They were wearing a rope and hung around their necks. Almost every child had one. Women’s favorite was to go to food stalls or seafood restaurants, while men’s favorite was to go to the beach, because there were many beauties in bikini there, so they would not get bored if they lie down and watch for a day.

In the primitive era of the Qin Dynasty, where the vast sky and the sky were wide, all the civilian entertainment had just begun under his promotion. The Wu and Yue coasts were even more deserted areas for entertainment. They were synonymous with wilderness and backwardness, and were at the top of the chain of contempt. They also did not have the so-called human rights and freedoms. The fishermen on the coast were poorer and backward than the tranquility and wealth of the inland civilians in the Central Plains. If it weren't for salt, it would probably be rare for the princes of the Central Plains to deal with the princes of the coast.

However, it was also salt that forced the princes of the Central Plains to pay attention to wild lands such as Qi, Yue, Wu and Chu, and fought fiercely with each other.
