Chapter 384 Cooperation
Zhang Zhongjian was a little dissatisfied with Lin Xuan's bland tone, and said, "Since you know, you should know that Tong Yuan, the master of a generation, only accepted three apprentices, but none of his three apprentices passed on this marksmanship , this marksmanship has been lost for hundreds of years, how could you do it?"
"I learned it." Lin Xuan said lightly.
He can't say that he has inherited Zhao Yun's martial arts, not only the Hundred Birds and Phoenix Spear, but also the Seven Detective Snake Pan Spear created by Zhao Yun.
Learned?
Zhang Zhongjian almost vomited blood from anger, you have to learn something for you.
Of course Lin Xuan knew what Zhang Zhongjian wanted to know, and said, "Master, it's not convenient for me to explain the reason. I hope you understand."
Zhang Zhongjian exhaled, and said: "Everyone has their own destiny, I don't ask anymore."
"Then how about we compare?" Lin Xuan looked at Zhang Zhongjian and asked.
"Comparison." Zhang Zhongjian cursed inwardly.
As the saying goes, boxing is afraid of the young.
He originally thought that Lin Xuan was young and not proficient in martial arts, while he was experienced and put on airs of a master.
However, Lin Xuan is not only proficient in marksmanship, but also knows the lost bird and phoenix spear, how can he compare?
Perhaps with years of experience, he can suppress Lin Xuan.
But after all, he is old, and after a long time, he will definitely fall into a disadvantage, and then he will lose his face.
"Ahem." Zhang Zhongjian coughed twice, concealing his embarrassment, and said, "Your martial arts are very good, there is no need to compare."
"The master will see if there are any deficiencies in my marksmanship, and give me pointers so that I can correct it." Lin Xuan laughed.
Although he didn't know what Zhang Zhongjian was thinking, Lin Xuan also guessed the general idea.
Lin Xuan didn't mind embarrassing him.
Hearing this, Zhang Zhongjian almost spat out a mouthful of old blood.
advice?What advice do I have.
He does have some marksmanship skills, but compared with the Hundred Birds Chaofeng Gun, he can't even lift his shoes.
Regardless of Zhang Zhongjian's extraordinary martial arts skills, even his most proficient sword skills are not considered advanced sword skills.
It's just that his talent, coupled with his wandering around the rivers and lakes and his experience, made up for his lack of sword skills.
"I don't know much about marksmanship, so I have nothing to teach you." Zhang Zhongjian said.
Lin Xuan curled his lips, really wanting to save face.
Seeing Lin Xuan's expression, Zhang Zhongjian twitched his eyes and said, "I'm going to stay at Li's house for a few days, and I'll come back in a few days."
There's no way, it's really embarrassing, he really has no face to stay here.
"Farewell, master, I still have something to discuss with you." Lin Xuan said hastily.
Zhang Zhongjian asked, "What's the matter?"
"Master, can you help me train some sailors?" Lin Xuanxi asked with a smile on his face.
Lin Xuan has always had the idea of operating overseas, but he really doesn't understand sailing.
Ships are easy to solve. The shipbuilding skills of Datang are very advanced in this era. In the future, the system may also reward the drawings of ships.
But it is not enough to have a boat without people. At this time, Datang's navigation technology is not developed, and there are no talents in this field at all.
But Zhang Zhongjian was able to go back and forth overseas, and even established a country, so his navigation skills must be very high.
Lin Xuan worshiped him as his teacher, and he also had this consideration in mind.
Zhang Zhongjian frowned slightly, and said, "Why do you want sailors?"
"Going to sea, overseas is a treasure land for Datang." Lin Xuan laughed.
"Treasure land?" Zhang Zhongjian was taken aback, and said, "This is the first time I've heard this kind of saying. There are indeed some things overseas that are strange to Datang, but are rare and common overseas, but calling it treasure land is a bit exaggerated. .”
"That's because you haven't found a place. The spices that are very precious in Tang Dynasty are all over the island on some overseas islands, like weeds." Lin Xuan laughed.
Spices mentioned in ancient times refer to agarwood, white sandalwood, rose, clove, cinnamon, pepper and so on.
Spices have been integrated into the lives of the ancients in all aspects.
In addition to enshrining gods, offering sacrifices to ancestors, perfuming clothes, and making rouge powder, spices are all needed.
However, Datang is not rich in spices, and most of them are imported from abroad.
Therefore, the spices of Datang are very precious.
Zhang Zhongjian swallowed, his eyes widened, and he said, "What you said is true?"
Don't look at him building a country, but he is also short of money.
The island he occupied was not rich in soil and materials, and there were no minerals. The people lived very hard.
Lin Xuan nodded and said, "Of course it's true."
Zhang Zhongjian grabbed Lin Xuan and asked, "Where is the island you mentioned?"
Lin Xuan shook his head: "I don't know."
Zhang Zhongjian was so angry that he almost cursed, what the hell are you talking about.
"You are not afraid that the old man will take it all by yourself?" Zhang Zhongjian looked at Lin Xuan suspiciously.
Lin Xuan spread his hands and said, "Master, I really don't know."
He had only heard of it, and he had never been overseas, so how could he know which island it was.
"You want to set up a fleet of ships to go to sea just based on some rumors? Do you think it's that simple to go to sea? Do you know how much it will cost just for ships?" Zhang Zhongjian said angrily.
Although the ancient ships were all made of wood, it took a lot of money to cut down the wood, transport it and manufacture it.
Lin Xuan said lightly: "I know all of these, but compared to the harvest, these are nothing."
According to Lin Xuan's estimation, the cost of a ship that can go to sea should be between [-] and [-] guan.
But the sea is not calm, and the ancient technology can't predict the weather at all.
Also count the possible losses, without a lot of money, it is impossible to play at all.
But is Lin Xuan short of money?
Going to sea to find wealth is one aspect, but more importantly, looking for a place to settle down overseas.
The country established by Zhang Zhongjian may be a good place.
But Zhang Zhongjian took in a lot of apprentices, would they want Lin Xuan to grab food?
"You are right, but you just heard about it. How can you be sure that you can find the island you mentioned?" Zhang Zhongjian said.
Lin Xuan said with a smile: "Life is full of uncertainties. Didn't Master go out to sea with the intention of dying?"
Zhang Zhongjian was taken aback, that's right, he chose to go to sea at the beginning, he didn't know anything about overseas, and he went there with the intention of dying.
Now he is not as decisive as Lin Xuan.
I am really old.
"Okay, the old man you said can help you, but the old man wants to cooperate with you, and the old man wants to lead the team to explore by himself." Zhang Zhongjian's eyes showed a trace of excitement.
Since establishing a country overseas, he has always felt that something is missing these years.
Only now did Zhang Zhongjian understand that he was full of adventurous spirit, and he was not a person who stayed in one place honestly.
Is there anything more exciting than exploring unknown seas?
Lin Xuan was taken aback, and said, "Master, this is not acceptable, it is too dangerous."
Zhang Zhongjian waved his hand and said: "I cooperate with you. You send people to teach them sailing skills. You pay for the shipbuilding. I take them to explore the sea. I only need [-]% of the proceeds."
Nothing, but [-]% of the income, how much?
In Lin Xuan's opinion, there are not many at all. The most important thing in sailing is the boat and experience.
Zhang Zhongjian's skills are priceless, and it's no problem to account for [-]%.
"Master, [-]% is too little, maybe [-]%." Lin Xuan thought for a while and said.
Don't look at the addition of only [-]%, if you really find the island he mentioned, [-]% represents a huge amount of wealth.
