Zhao Xu still expressed great sincerity to Fan Ning and lent him one hundred steam cargo ships, including eighty ten thousand stone cargo ships and twenty twenty twenty twenty thousand stone cargo ships. This was a cargo ship transformed with a steam engine during the Song Dynasty this year.

At the same time, various supply materials worth 100,000 yuan were given to the North Island and the South Island.

The time for departure finally came. This time I went to Beidao, in addition to Fanning and a pair of children, Jian Meizi also followed him. Zhu Pei handed over the two children to her. She was really worried about Fanning. It was not because her husband was careless and had too many things to do, so it was impossible for him to take care of the children at all times.

There were more than 30 immigrants, a total of more than 200 people. In addition to the 130 people who went to the North Island, more than 80 people and more than a dozen families went to the South Island, led by a Cao family manager. Early this morning, Zhu Pei and Ouyang Qian sent a pair of children on board. They first took three passenger ships of 3,000 stone to Yangzhou, and then set off from Yangzhou by sea.

Of course, there are also guard soldiers. A thousand soldiers follow the ships, and their mission is to deal with pirates.

Everyone on the pier said goodbye, and many immigrants even cried bitterly. Every immigrant would lose control of his emotions when leaving his homeland. The sadness of leaving his homeland can only be achieved after a new home, and use time to slowly calm down.

The eldest son Fan Jing also said goodbye to his mother a little, but Fan Zhen'er acted heartless and couldn't even close her mouth. She was the kind of girl with invisible wings and wished she could fly in the sky forever.

The ship was gone, and Zhu Pei said to Ouyang Qian, whose eyes were a little red, "Let's go! They will be back in three months."

Ouyang Qian nodded silently, and she asked Zhu Pei again, "Are you sad when Jing'er is away from home?"

Zhu Pei was open-minded and she was used to this kind of separation and separation. She shook her head and said to Ouyang Qian: "I want to be sad, but when I think of a lot of things waiting for me at home, I feel like a big head, and I can't care about sadness."

"How about I do something for you 1"

Ouyang Qian quickly explained: "I just want to find something to do, otherwise when I think of Zhen'er, my heart will be like a knife cut in my heart, and she has never left me."

"Okay! If you don't bother, just take the money shop!"

"I'm not bothered, I just don't know anything."

"It's okay, I'll teach you how to do it. It's very simple. We just understand the situation and don't care about the money shop management, so we don't need to know that much."

"Yeah! I'll give it a try."

The two got on the carriage, and the carriage quickly drove south

The fleet arrived in Yangzhou three days later. One hundred large ships directly belonging to the Overseas Economic and Legal Mansion were filled with various supplies, two of which were used to carry people. Fanning took more than 20,000 stones with more than 20,000 stones. Another large ship would pick up people in Quanzhou. There were more than 370 people there, including a group of merchants who went to the North Island and the South Island to look for business opportunities.

Fanning lived on the third floor of the deck with his two children, Jian Meizi's master and apprentice, and several maids. Fanning's father-in-law Cao Qi also lived on the third floor with two concubines and several maids.

More than thirty escorts lived on the second floor, the first floor of the deck was a public rest floor, and more than 200 other people lived in the cabins below the deck. However, for most of the day, they spent on the first floor of the deck and only returned to their respective cabins at night.

On this day, the fleet gradually arrived in Quanzhou. Fan Ning leaned on the side of the ship and looked into the distance. At this time, Fan Zhener ran over and asked, "Dad, are we going to go back to the old house in Quanzhou this time?"

Fan Ning shook his head and smiled, "I'm afraid there is no time this time, so we won't even stop at Quanzhou Port, so we go south directly."

"Don't we still have to pick up people?"

"You'll know right away!"

As soon as Fanning finished speaking, someone pointed to the distance and shouted: "Look, there are fleets over there too!"

I saw a huge fleet in front of me, about fifty or sixty thousand ten thousand stone sea boats, probably just sailed out of Quanzhou Port.

"Dad, where is that fleet going?"

Fan Ning smiled and said, "That is a supply fleet to the Southern Continent. We will have a contract with us later."

Fan Zhener suddenly clapped her hands and smiled, "I understand, there are more than 300 people in this fleet."

Fanning patted her head and smiled, "What a smart kid. To be honest, one of the boats will go to Beidao with us."

Soon, the two fleets merged into one place, and long whistles sounded each other, and the huge fleet sailed towards the south.

Five days later, the fleet arrived at Luzon Mansion. The fleet would rest for one day in Luzon Mansion. The fleet would replenish freshwater and coke and continue to travel south.

Fanning took his two children to the shore. He did not reveal his identity and entered the city with a large bamboo hat on the sun.

Bianliang was already a little cool in September, but Luzon Island was shining brightly and very hot. This was the first time Fan Jing and Fan Zhener came to Luzon Mansion. They were very curious and excited, and Jian Meizi followed them closely.

There are many people in the county town, almost all of them are Han people, and there are also some Nanyang people and cannibals.

The permanent population of Luzon County has reached 100,000, plus labor and businessmen have reached 200,000, making it the number one county overseas in the Song Dynasty. It is impossible to feel that this is overseas.

There were many shops in the county town, and there were many merchants. Most of them came to Luzon to purchase spices, frosted sugar, muffin and various Nanyang specialties. The most prosperous place for Nanyang business was of course Xingang, but Luzon Port was also very developed. Many Song Dynasty merchants were unwilling to go south again, so they sold goods here, purchased goods, and then returned to the Song Dynasty, saving freight, but also saving a lot of time.

Each store was filled with a wide range of goods, which made everyone dazzled. Fan Ning bought Fan Zhener a Ceylon sapphire hairpin, an ivory carved lion paperweight for his son Fan Jing, and a silver nectar bowl for Jian Meizi. This is a magic weapon used in Taoist temples. Jian Meizi's new Taoist temple is opposite Fan Ning's mansion. She took in more than a dozen female disciples. This time, her youngest disciple Qing Lian also went out to sea with her.

Qinglian is only one year older than Fan Zhen'er, and the two of them have companions. Jian Meizi thanked her faintly and gave her nectar bowl to her disciple Qinglian.

"My aunt, there is a temple over there, it seems very lively, let's go and have a look." Fan Zhen'er pointed to a temple in front of her. There were people coming and going in front of the temple, which was really lively.

Jian Meizi quickly glanced at Fan Ning and Cao Qi behind him. Seeing that the two were pointing at the city gate and talking about something, she said, "It's the first time I'm here, so it's better to say to your father and don't get separated."

Fan Zhener ran up and pulled her father's sleeve, "Dad, aunt will take us to the temple in front to see, okay?"

"Go!"

Fan Zhener ran back happily, "Dad agreed, let's go!"

Several people walked towards the temple. Fan Jing hesitated for a moment and followed him. He was full of interest in everything here.

"Anning, tell me the truth. This time the Empress Dowager promised me to go to the South Island. Is the Cao family going to lose power?" Cao Qi asked in a low voice.

Fanning shook her head, "It would be better to lose power. She was just a little disappointed."

"What height does she want? The foreign relatives' power group?"

"That's about this. The Empress Dowager once hoped that you would become the Privy Councilor and become the backbone of the Cao family."

Cao Qi shook his head, "What kind of virtue can I be the Privy Councilor? She respects me too highly, and Cao Shi will be possible in the future."

"This time my father-in-law goes to Nandao, really don't plan to return to Dasong?"

"No, this time I go to resettle it first, prepare for the residence and other things, and then go back, and take my wife's servant to Nandao next year and never go back."

Speaking of this, Cao Qi smiled and said, "But I heard that Beidao is doing a good job. I plan to prepare a mansion in Beidao, and I often exchange it for several months."

“No problem at all!”

At this time, Fan Zhener ran over excitedly with a wooden box, "Dad, there are many small stalls in the temple, I bought something I had never seen before."

"What is it?" Fanning asked with a smile.

Fan Zhener opened the wooden box made of coconut shells, which was filled with various gadgets, various strange small stone carvings, which were carved from high-quality sky bluestone, colorful beads, and some shells. This is a typical item of the Pacific natives.

At this time, Fanning turned out a two-inch-long black leaf roll from the bottom of the box. He instinctively thought of the cigar and put it next to his nose and smelled it.

Fanning's face suddenly changed. This is really a tobacco leaf.

"Zhener, where did you buy this?"

Fan Zhener pointed to the Chenghuang Temple in front of her, "It's right in the temple, there are many small stalls inside, which I bought for 100 cents."

"Take me to see."

Fanning was a little excited. This should be something from South America, and it actually appeared on Luzon.
