This Northern Song Dynasty is a bit weird

Chapter 305 Real Man Lu Takes the World as a Chess
Lu Sen came from later generations, so he knew the character of the people in this place very well.

The other party's repentance was completely within his expectations, and he was even... happy to see it come true.

"It's okay to change it to two flat peaches." Lu Sen said calmly, "But I need to know the information you collected first."

Domenico took out a piece of parchment from his clothes and spread it out on the table.

The parchment gave off a strange smell, a mix of urine and sweat.

Lu Sen frowned slightly, while Xianxian and the others retreated immediately.

After all, the environment they have been living in is too clean, and they are really not used to such things.

This piece of parchment is not big, about the size of an A4 paper, with a scribbled map drawn on it.

According to Lu Sen's identification, this map is very similar to the European map of later generations. He can see from it that it is the topography of the eastern Mediterranean and the Black Sea.

"I united dozens of nobles with names and surnames, asked them for help, and searched the entire Eastern Roman Empire and nearby city-states." Domenico said proudly, which was essentially what he was showing off. My own connections and abilities: "We haven't found anything, and we haven't seen the giant tree that Priest Lu said."

Listening to Alizee's translation, everyone frowned slightly.

Lu Sen's attitude is okay, but the attitude of others is already not very happy.

After all, other people have a strong "Heavenly Kingdom" mentality, and they treat the Venetians in the same way they treat barbarians.

The other party dared to whet his appetite, he really didn't know what to say.

Domenico also noticed that other people, especially those goddess-like beautiful women seemed unhappy, and hurriedly said: "But we found that there is a mysterious force preventing our exploration team from entering by boat. We can only circle around the perimeter."

Lu Sen looked at the place Domenico pointed to. There was a narrow ocean area with a small island in the middle.

He couldn't help muttering: "A small island in the middle of the Aegean Sea? Athens next to it?"

In later generations of Athens, most people would only think of Athena and the birthplace of the Olympic Games, but anyone who has studied history knows that Plato, Aristotle and other Western historical celebrities were born here.

It can be said to be the cultural and economic center of Greece. In addition, there is a large city in the east, Constantinople, which is now the capital of the Eastern Roman Empire.

It can be said that the current economic and cultural center of Europe, or the Eastern Roman Empire, is located in the Aegean Sea, and then radiates around.

Whale Patient placed the hibiscus tree in the middle of the Aegean Sea. From a geographical point of view, it can indeed affect the luck of the entire Xirong.

There is quite a saying of "Land of Longxing".

It seems that there is indeed a high probability that whales are hiding on this small island.

Lu Sen sat down and looked at Governor Domenico.

Seemingly deterred by Lu Sen's gaze, Domenico began to sweat on his forehead.

After a while, Lu Sen withdrew his gaze, looked at the cup in his hand, and said, "I can give you two flat peaches, but you have to understand that the more mysterious the item, the more strength is needed to protect it. If you can keep your own something?"

Hearing what Lu Sen said, Domenico meant that he was willing to give him two legendary magical forbidden fruits?

"Please rest assured, Grand Priest, I have enough strength to guarantee my wealth."

"Confidence is a good thing, that's what you want." Lu Sen took two flat peaches out of his backpack and put them on the table.

As soon as this thing came out, Shi Lei, who was standing not far away, couldn't help swallowing.

He also ate one...but no one would think too much of flat peaches.

"So beautiful and holy." Domenico picked up one of the flat peaches and sniffed it lightly, his eyes were full of excitement: "If I eat these two peaches, will I be able to return to my youth?"

Xianxian and the others watched quietly, but no one wanted to speak.

Lu Sen replied: "A flat peach can restore ten years of life, you'd better find a safe place to eat it."

"I understand." Domenico carefully took off his coat, wrapped two flat peaches, and then he saluted Lu Sen: "Thank you for the generous Priest Lu, you will always have the Domenico family friendship."

Lu Sen smiled: "It's my honor."

Then Domenico left in a hurry with his servants.

In fact, the safest place in the world is Lu Sen's 'home system'.

But Domenico didn't know about this, and besides, he didn't really trust Lu Sen. Although the other party gave the thing to him, he didn't say he couldn't take it back.

People in the Eastern Roman Empire have always thought so.

I can take back what I gave you.

Using this to save people, Domenico believed in his heart that only his own manor and castle are the safest places in the world.

After Domenico left, Xianxian walked up and asked, "Sir, why did you give such a precious thing to a barbarian?"

Lu Sen laughed and said, "He's too greedy. He said he only wanted honey and silk, but he wanted flat peaches. I'll give them to him!"

Xianxian was a little puzzled, she wrinkled and asked slowly, "What's the point of this?"

"Compared with our Great Song Dynasty, the folk customs of the people in this place are indeed more barbaric." Lu Sen smiled and explained to the people next to him: "Our Great Song Dynasty all have the idea of ​​'children hold gold to go through the downtown area', what do you think of this future? Is there anything similar in a civilized society?"

When Lu Xianxian heard this, she understood: "Oh, you just give it to him because he is greedy, and then wait for something to happen to him? It feels like a waste of two flat peaches."

"It's not wasted. That Domenico is a good advertisement. If you want to do something here in the future, you can do it simply."

"Advertisement?" Xianxian widened her foxy eyes.

"It's just a pretense."

"It's a cover for publicity?" Lu Xianxian nodded to express her understanding, and then she said to Alizee next to her, "Xiaojie, go and follow that barbarian just now, no matter what happens to him, just tell us It will be all right. I reckon something will happen to him within a day or two."

Because Lu Sen decided to rest here for three days, and then go to Jingzhe after recovering his energy. After all...the other party is waiting for work, if he rushes over, there will probably be an accident.

For the next two days, Lu Sen and others rested in this small manor.

During the period, Lu Xianxian also went shopping with Bilian, wanting to see the difference between the city of Xirong people and that of Song people.

As a result...he came back within a quarter of an hour after going out.

Because...the streets are full of excrement.

Lu Xianxian also saw a pair of men and women traveling together on the street. When they were walking on the street, they suddenly poured a plate of golden juice from upstairs beside the road. The man reacted quickly and pushed the woman aside, and then he was poured out cold.

The woman was very grateful to the man, and ran to the other side of the street, and looked at the man across the street, full of affection.

Lu Sen laughed out loud after hearing this, because this is one of the origins of the word 'gentleman'. Gentlemen are meant to help women keep shit out.

He was laughing happily in the room, Shi Lei walked in and said: "Master, there is a man outside who speaks Song dialect, and also looks like a man from our Song Dynasty. He said he is an old acquaintance of yours, Master, and I want to see you."

old acquaintance?

This is Venice, apart from a few of us, how can there be any old acquaintances!
But to speak Song dialect to the other party, you have to meet him.

As a result, Lu Sen went out to take a look, but saw a heroic man in a blue gown and holding a black scabbard. He was immediately pleasantly surprised.

"Brother Zhan, why are you here?"

Lu Sen stepped forward quickly, gave Zhan Zhao access rights, and welcomed him into the system home.

Zhan Zhao sat down, took a sip of the bee water that Yaoyao brought, and then sighed comfortably: "Sure enough, the immortal wine from Master Lu is delicious."

Compared with the last meeting, Zhan Zhao at this time is obviously a little 'rough'.

It's not that he is not handsome anymore, but that he has changed from a heroic man to a handsome man with vicissitudes.

Lu Sen sized it up for a while, and couldn't help asking: "Brother Zhan, didn't you go out to sea with Bao Longtu? Why are you here?"

"This is also a harbor." Zhan Zhao said with a smile.

Lu Sen was stunned for a moment, then laughed out loud: "That's right, if Bao Longtu had an idea, he would definitely come to the Mediterranean Sea for a walk."

On the eve of their sailing, Lu Sen sent them a simple nautical chart, and they could indeed get here by following the chart.

"We encountered a shipwreck at sea yesterday, and after we rescued it, we heard that a golden spaceship floating in the sky came from Venice Harbor, so we knew it was your car, Master Lu." Zhan Zhao said with a smile: " Bao Fu Yin felt that this was a so-called chance encounter, he originally planned to come to visit, but he just got off the boat..."

Lu Sen asked curiously, "What happened to Bao Longtu?"

"The streets of Xirong people are too unsightly." Zhan Zhao smiled wryly.

Lu Xianxian covered her mouth with her sleeve as she listened. She thought she was the only woman who couldn't stand the 'magnificence' of the Xirong people.

In the end, even an upright man like Bao Zheng couldn't bear it.

"I'll go visit Bao Longtu later." Lu Sen stood up and said with a smile, "It's really fate to meet you in a foreign land. What a coincidence!"

Lu Sen asked the others to rest in the manor, then took out the aircraft and flew Zhan Zhao towards the harbor.

This is Zhan Zhao's first time 'flying' in the air.

Looking at the scenery below through the glass cover, he murmured: "When I stayed in the Central Plains, I always thought that the world was like this. After I came out with Baofu Yin, I realized how big the world is and how wide the coast is. "

It's normal for Zhan Zhao to feel this way.

A year ago, Bao Zheng took him out to sea. At first, he did have some thoughts of going out to sea to see the world, but more, he just wanted to protect Baofu Yin.

But after this period of time, he really understood that the world is really big.

The races in this world are also different.

Far beyond his imagination.

At this time, the port of Venice was not too big. As soon as Lu Sen's aircraft took off, he saw a huge golden treasure ship docked in the port.

It didn't take long for the spaceship to land on the stable side of the ship. When he and Zhan Zhao came out, they found a circle of sailors clasping their hands and bowing to him.

These sailors are all very dark, some of them look like Song people, and some of them look like short black men.

Zhan Zhao then explained: "One month after we sailed, we encountered strong winds and waves at sea. Some brothers were blown into the sea and couldn't be found. We had to go to the shore to replenish some natives."

Speaking of this, Zhan Zhao's face was a little uncomfortable, and he was also a little scared.

He can still vividly remember the scene of that day.

Originally, the sea was clear and clear, but suddenly it was so dark that you couldn't see your fingers.

The strong wind was roaring, as if blowing from all directions, people could not stand firmly on the side of the ship.

There are also streaks of purple or white lightning flashing across the clouds above the head, which is scary to watch.

The few brothers who were responsible for releasing the wind on the mast were blown out of sight before they could climb down.

Fortunately, the treasure ship built by Lu Sen was big enough and stable enough. Although it was thrown up and down by the huge sea and swayed from side to side, it still couldn't hold on until the storm disappeared.

Then Zhan Zhao pulled himself together and took Lu Sen to the cabin, where Lu Sen met Bao Zheng.

Originally, Lu Sen was still thinking about how he should talk to Bao Zheng, but when they met, Lu Sen couldn't help laughing out loud.

Bao Zheng sat on the bench, stroked his black beard, and asked, "Master Lu, why are you laughing?"

"Suddenly I feel something." Lu Sen managed to hold back his smile.

Don't blame him, at this time Bao Zheng is wearing black clothes, sitting upright like the governor of Kaifeng back then.

But the problem is... Bao Zheng at this time is very fat, and he is black!
Fat man with a black face, crescent moon before forehead increase!

That's right, it was the most classic image of Bao Qingtian in Lu Sen's memory.

Sitting opposite Bao Zheng, Lu Sen smiled and said, "Master Bao is getting more and more blessed."

"There is no way." Bao Zheng's black face rarely showed some embarrassment: "During the boat, I had nothing to do all day long, and I unconsciously developed a habit of eating snacks. Eating and eating, it became like this. "

Running a boat on the sea, exposed to the wind and sun all day long, most people would turn black, and Bao Zheng was no exception.

Every time the ship stops at a port, it will buy some local specialties, and it will try to sell it at the next place.

The treasure ship is big enough to hold a lot of things besides water and food.

Therefore, sailing from East Asia to this coastline, buying and selling all the way, their money is getting more and more.

Not to mention Bao Zheng Zhanzhao and others, just ordinary sailors, the silver they own now is almost considered a small rich man in Bianjing City.

"Your journey must have been magnificent."

From East Asia to the Spice Islands, then to the Indian Ocean, around the Cape of Good Hope, then north along the coastline, then to the Strait of Gibraltar, into the Mediterranean Sea, and finally came to the vicinity of Venice, just met Lu Sen.

Such a journey, just thinking about it, makes people feel admirable.

Bao Zheng nodded: "This journey is indeed an eye-opener. But Master Lu, what is the meaning of your coming here?"

"Why does Lord Bao have such an idea?"

"The old man has figured it out recently. You let the sea merchants go to sea, let us go to sea, the world in the Xianjia shadow puppet show is all trying to tell us... This world is very big, and our Song Dynasty is very small. Do you want to do it? matters." Bao Zheng's black face was full of pride: "You, Master Lu, take the world as a board, and the world as a chessboard. Let alone the old man, even the officials are pawns in your hands."
