Chapter 439, tears welling up(2/2)
Not only Tian Erniu's family was so excited, almost everyone in the entire family area was very excited. Everyone was shouting and saying hello to their relatives.
"I'm back~"
On each Dafu ship, the crew members kept shouting excitedly.
So excited~
After more than a year, they returned to Daming successfully. At the same time, they met their relatives as soon as possible. They were reunited after a long separation and were filled with joy. This was the situation.
"I'll go~ Are they going to be beggars?"
Zhu Hou looked at the ship that was slowly moored at the port pier, and then looked at the crew members on the ship. They were all very tanned. It didn't matter if they were tan, because all the farmers in this era were tanned anyway.
But the key point is that these people are all dressed in tatters and have wrinkles on their faces. They seem to have aged a lot, almost like beggars.
"Your Highness, they have been on the sea route for a long time, exposed to wind and sun, and the living conditions are very difficult. It is not surprising that they are like this. This is the case for people who go to sea for a long time."
Liu Jin smiled and explained.
"So that's it. It seems that this voyage is not very interesting."
After Zhu Houzhao listened, he curled his lips slightly and said, in his opinion, sailing should be a very interesting thing, to discover unknown worlds, contact unknown civilizations, and pursue wealth. Just thinking about it makes people excited and fascinated.
, now it seems that there seems to be nothing.
Liu Jin smiled and looked at the anchored ship.
"There are ten big fortune ships, not one is missing. It seems that their trip should be quite smooth."
Liu Jin counted the Dafu ships that came back. Although these ships seemed to be very dilapidated, the sails were full of patches, and many areas on the deck were missing. They seemed to have been cut off, but the number was
There is no shortage of boats. There were ten boats when we left, and there are ten boats when we come back.
As soon as the ship was anchored, the crew members immediately got off the ship excitedly. A ship happened to be anchored at Pier 3. All the crew members immediately ran straight to their families. Some hugged each other excitedly, and some shouted happily.
Some people raised their children and were very happy.
As the captain of the fleet, Du Mingen naturally could not go to gather with his family immediately. Instead, he led people to Zhu Houzhao and Liu Jin and said respectfully: "Meet His Highness the Crown Prince~"
"No gifts~No gifts, welcome back~"
Zhu Houzhao smiled warmly and expressed his welcome.
"Mr. Du, welcome back~"
Liu Jin also smiled and welcomed Du Mingen.
"Haha, Mr. Liu, long time no see, you still look good~"
Du Mingen smiled and said to Liu Jin.
"It seems that this trip should go smoothly~"
Liu Jin asked with a smile.
"Thanks to His Majesty's great blessing, we are going very smoothly at this time~"
Du Mingen nodded and said, carefully recalling the experience of more than a year, it seems that it can be said that it was very smooth. Although they suffered a lot when they came back, in general, they came back smoothly.
The ship was not missing, and not a single person was missing. It also completed the mission assigned by Emperor Hongzhi, and also returned with huge wealth.
"Brothers, take back our possessions and carry them out~"
Thinking of this, Du Mingen said to his crew members.
"Okay~"
When the crew heard this, they all shouted excitedly.
Then the crew began to get busy, and at the same time, the staff at Tianjin Port also began to help move things off the ship.
"Your Highness, Mr. Liu~"
"This is corn, sweet potato, potato~"
Du Mingen dragged three things on a tray to Zhu Houzhao and Liu Jin.
When Zhu Houzhao heard this, he immediately picked it up and took a closer look. Liu Jin naturally recognized it at a glance. Yes, it was these three things.
"That's right, with these three things, there will be no more famine in our Ming Dynasty~"
Liu Jin looked at the three things on the tray and said excitedly.
With corn, sweet potatoes and potatoes, as long as they are promoted throughout the Ming Dynasty, there is absolutely no need to worry about eating.
"Heyyo~Heyyo~"
On the other side, the crew members were struggling to carry a box off the ship. The box was very heavy and the crew members were struggling.
"Move out all the things inside and place them on the dock for everyone to take a look."
When Liu Jin saw this, he immediately knew that it must be silver, gold or something like that. After thinking about it, he ordered.
"Yes~"
When the crew heard this, they nodded quickly.
When the box was opened, the bright yellow gold bricks came into everyone's sight, and everyone in the port couldn't help shouting.
"Gold~ It's gold~"
As for what these melon-eating people in the port area want to see most, it is definitely white silver and golden gold.
The crew took out all the gold and piled it on the dock.
Box after box, everyone was busy, and soon a small pile of gold was piled up where the ship was moored. The light emitted by the gold attracted the attention of everyone in the entire port area.
"Mr. Du, how much gold did you bring back?"
Even Zhu Houzhao squinted his little eyes at this time and looked at the piles of gold on the dock. There was a pile of gold piled up where a ship was, and it was still flowing, box after box of gold.
Moving outside, it seems like it won’t be finished in a short while.
"I didn't go to weigh it. Anyway, we filled ten ships with gold. It can be said that the Golden Continent is full of gold."
Du Mingen said with a big smile.
He really didn't weigh it. He just relied on trade exchanges to obtain a huge amount of gold from the descendants of the Yin merchants in Central America. There was just too much gold.
"Gold~still gold~"
Here in the port area, countless people's eyes turned red as they watched boxes and boxes of gold being carried out one after another, and soon they were piled into ten small piles on the dock.
"Oh my God, how much gold is this?"
Some people couldn't help but exclaimed.
"It seems that the Golden Continent is really full of gold~"
At this moment, everyone's minds were filled with golden gold. Only at this moment did they truly believe what Liu Jin said, that the Golden Continent was full of gold.
Chapter completed!
