On the afternoon of January 1, 2013, the Southern Xinjiang Protectorate.

Ouyang Shuo, together with Zheng He, the newly appointed governor of the Nanyang Navy, and Du Ruhui, the Military Affairs Director who returned from Mulan Fortress, had a secret talk in his study for an afternoon.

The matter discussed was the "Great Navigation Plan" that Ouyang Shuo has been planning.

In the first half of Gaia's three years, the territory will focus on developing its internal affairs, once again consolidate its territorial foundation, and no longer launch foreign wars.

This period was also the time for the Honglu Temple led by Zhang Yi to perform.

As for Ouyang Shuo, he turned his attention to the boundless deep sea.

Previously, Ouyang Shuo's grand navigation plan was just an idea.

After obtaining the "Ming Dynasty Gunpowder Manufacturing Technical Manual", navigation BUFF and the master navigator Zheng He, this plan can finally be implemented.

Ouyang Shuo wanted to take advantage of this rare opportunity to expand his territory's leading advantage in China to a point beyond the reach of Di Chen and others. Even if they use their real achievements to exchange for a large amount of gold coins this time, they will not be able to have an overwhelming advantage on Shanhaicheng.

Zheng He's seven voyages to the West, and his eyes were at the farthest point were the African continent. Ouyang Shuo's eyes were projected to the United Kingdom on the European continent at once.

There, Ouyang Shuo will complete a great trade.

I have to say that Ouyang Shuo's thoughts were very crazy. Even Zheng He, who often went to the West, was excited again when he heard it, and the [Loyalty] value soared by 10 points.

For Zheng He, the sea was his destiny.

Ouyang Shuo only put forward a general idea, the specific plan and preparation work were led by Zheng He and the Military Affairs Office cooperated with full cooperation.

It is precisely this that Zheng He and Du Ruhui need to work together.

Du Ruhui transferred the reorganization of the army to Deputy Director Zhao Kuo Quanquan. Next, Du Ruhui's work was to cooperate with Zheng He to complete this great navigation plan.

The three of them discussed until late at night before giving up.

************

The next day, accompanied by Du Ruhui, Zheng He left Shanhai City and visited the three major fleets to inspect the garrisons to make preliminary preparations for the grand navigation plan.

Navigation, especially ocean voyage, has never been easy.

From the construction of warships, the recruitment and training of sailors, to the preparation of materials and personnel, to the formation of expeditionary fleets, everything is not a matter of a day or a night.

But as winter approaches, the fleet must set sail as soon as possible.

The northeastern monsoon will blew along the coast of China in winter, which will be able to send the fleet to the Indian Ocean smoothly. Once the winter monsoon is missed, the fleet will almost never be able to travel.

Therefore, in an era without steam-driven warships, ocean navigation must follow the season.

...

At the same time, Ouyang Shuo went to Kyoto with 100,000 gold coins accompanied by the personal guards.

The Shadow Guards under the Shanhai Guard have also set up control in Kyoto early. The Shadow Guard Commander Cui Tianqi went to Kyoto in person to secretly protect Ouyang Shuo's safety.

Obviously, no one wants the assassination last year to reappear.

As for Song Jia, she will stay in Shanhai City and preside over the preparation of their marriage.

Ouyang Shuo's status is extraordinary. His marriage is naturally very different from that of ordinary people and has a very meaningful meaning. This is why things that need preparation are also extremely complicated.

To this end, the Southern Xinjiang Protectorate also temporarily added a lord’s wedding preparation department.

Jiang Shang came forward in person to take charge of the department.

The specific work is under the responsibility of the Culture Department under the Department of Science, Education, Culture and Health.

All the procedures and etiquette of the entire wedding were controlled by Jiang Shang and Xu Shuda, the director of Culture and Education, and the whole process was controlled, and no matter how careless it was.

The Finance Department was also extremely generous this time, allocating 100,000 gold coins of marriage funds at one time.

The wedding date is set on the second day of the first lunar month, that is, February 4, the third year of Gaia.

...

Using [Prayer Silver House], he consumed 100,000 gold coins at once. In desperation, in order to reduce the burden on the Finance Department, Ouyang Shuo had to cut his auction funds again.

Ouyang Shuo really couldn't imagine what role it could play with a hundred thousand gold coins.

Even so, I still have to go.

This auction will surely be a storm, so how could Ouyang Shuo miss it?

Kyoto is still prosperous.

The difference is that the city seems to be filled with an increasingly rich and powerful smell.

[Rise of the Aristocratic Family] is gradually affecting the atmosphere of the royal city.

According to the forum, some players have received relevant tasks in the royal city, and they don’t know whether it is true or false.

Unlike previous years, because the super trading platform was cancelled, the messy items obtained by players, either through missions, adventures, or through adventures, have no sales channels.

The wisdom of players is endless. Some smart players took advantage of the east wind of the auction to set up stalls in front of the Kyoto auction house.

Looking around, the entire Central Street was filled with hawking sounds.

Since the birth of the super trading platform, such a lively stall setting scene is rare.

Ouyang Shuo was walking on Central Street under the escort of the personal guards, and was full of interest. These scenes made him recall the various experiences of visiting stalls in his previous life.

At that time, he was hoping to find a good and cheap equipment at the stall. In order to leave dozens of gold coins, or even a few gold coins.

However, again and again, he returned disappointed again.

Thinking of this, Ouyang Shuo was filled with mixed feelings. He could take this opportunity to relive his old dream.

I saw Ouyang Shuo looking at each stall and shaking his head from time to time. For Ouyang Shuo now, how could ordinary objects be able to catch his eyes?!

Even though Central Street is crowded with people, Ouyang Shuo and his party are still the most dazzling existence. The one hundred strongest personal guards are enough to discourage other players.

Soon, some players recognized Ouyang Shuo.

"It's the Marquis of Lianzhou!" The sharp-eyed passerby.

"It's really him. This is too boring. He actually went shopping at the stall like us." Jealous passerby B.

"So handsome~~~" the brainless silly girl.

The entire street became more and more excited due to the appearance of Ouyang Shuo.

Ouyang Shuo, however, looked calm.

The personal guard led by Chen Dameng is enough to ensure that no one can get close to Ouyang Shuo.

Therefore, Ouyang Shuo was still leisurely strolling around the stalls.

However, his identity was exposed. The eyes of those players who set up stalls suddenly became hot when they looked at Ouyang Shuo, and they were talking nonstop to promote the "baby" in their hands.

Who doesn’t know that the person in front of you is a big kid.
