Heaven’s Intention

When spring comes, the trees stretch out the branches of yellow and green leaves, gently blowing in the slight spring breeze, and some trees also bloom bright flowers. The fragrance of the flowers attracts many bees, buzzing and singing dance.

When the breeze blows, a burst of fresh and delicate fragrance comes oncoming, and bright sunshine radiates everywhere.

Madam, the ships in the port...are ready! Shakat saluted. He was old and pale, but he was still the captain of the fleet.

Of course, Lord Shakat, the navy and fleet are at your disposal. Among these ships, please choose one as the flagship and choose the fleet commander of this fleet. Alini said: Although I am traveling with the fleet, But not a commander at sea.

Yes, ma'am, Captain Pick is capable! Shakat said loudly.

Pick was actually forty, and this might be his chance.

As you wish, Commander Pick, the fleet will be under your command.

Yes, ma'am, please rest assured that the fleet will leave safely and come back safely. Governor Peter saluted.

Alini looked at it and smiled. Ten battleships, tons in size, were loaded with food and seeds, and even some animals.

Of course, what is more noticeable is that the soldiers on each ship, a total of 500, have occupied all the navy in the territory.

There are densely packed merchant ships behind, most of the tonnage ships are not big, with square sails and triangular sails, they can easily use various wind directions to sail, and they are also very flexible in operation.

There are also large merchant ships, tons, loaded with supplies.

It seems that the Pilgrimage Chamber of Commerce and related chambers of commerce, for Luo Meng's sake, really put a lot of thought into this fleet. These supplies and ships, combined, are worth half a million gold coins.

There is a group of special personnel, all of whom are pirates, criminals, and unpopular dissidents. After the lords and even the kings of various places know about the expedition plan, they send them extra. These people are laborers.

Captain Peak didn't sympathize with them at all, these guys were scumbags in his mind.

The pilot raised the semaphore, and the ship started to move forward. Alini stared at the pier with some emotion in her heart.

However, the church in the territory has already become regular, so you can rest assured, and the newly opened country will be the foundation for the next few hundred years.

Captain Peter saluted solemnly,

Go to the command room on the ship.

With the sound of the horn, the ship slowly started to move, sailing towards the outside of the port.

... Captain Peter inspected the ship and saw cans one by one.

However, this craft is not difficult, popularization is difficult.

Now all the cans are made of pottery. The stone pottery is exactly the same. The food is processed first, then put into the can, and all of them are heated and sterilized in a steam pot. Then they are covered while they are hot, and then sealed with wax. die.

In this way, food can be preserved for a long time without rot and deterioration.

This method has greatly enhanced the fleet's long-distance voyage, can store a large amount of vegetables and meat, and basically eliminated scurvy.

He opened the lid of the can casually, and there were actually vegetables inside, so he dug a spoonful and put it into his mouth.

Does it taste alright? Alini said.

Governor Pick nodded and said, It tastes good, madam.

This batch of cans is refined goods, and the color is very good. Alini held the cans: On the way, you don't need to worry about the seafarers.

There are only five priests belonging to Romon in the territory. Although scurvy can be cured by priests, they are not affordable now.

Yes, ma'am! Governor Pick felt sorry for this waste.

Alini shook her head and smiled, but said nothing.

Ma'am, I will take advantage of this voyage to conduct naval training. Captain Pick changed the subject. The fleet of 2,000 people can already be called huge in this era.

Oh, Captain Pick, do you have any plans? Alini asked.

Yes, ma'am, we will maintain the naval drills according to the plan. The sailors will clean, patrol, and mop the deck every day. The soldiers will have military training every day. The captain will command the ship and train the semaphore and the cooperation between the ships. This long voyage will It is a good opportunity to strengthen the quality of the navy.

Alini listened, nodded, stood up, and looked into the distance from the window.

The sea in the distance, even when the weather is calm, is still turbulent, galloping and roaring, the sound of rolling white waves vibrates, and the sea is so blue that it makes people feel like sapphires.

After waiting for a while, Alini saw that Captain Pico looked a little nervous, and said with a smile: You are the commander, it's up to you to decide, I believe you are an excellent naval captain.

Captain Shakat, because of his outstanding talent and achievements, he was conferred the title of Lord. I believe you can get it too, in the territory of the sea!

Yes, ma'am! Captain Pick's eyes lit up, and he said.

Governor Shakat has been ennobled, and he has envied countless sailors, and Pick is no exception, but he is also very clear that it is difficult to be ennobled except when it was founded. Now this time, his wish has really been fulfilled.

The only problem is that the distance is too far, but Governor Pi Ke didn't pay much attention to it. The news of Romon's deification has been publicly disseminated, and everyone knows that following them has a bright future.

It's just that regular training will affect the supply of supplies? Alini asked this question.

Ma'am, according to the materials I inspected and the fisheries along the way, these are not a problem. The only thing to worry about is the supply of fresh water. You know, the long-term work and activities on the ocean have made the fresh water tense, and this time, some animals also need it. precious fresh water.

And, this time, I saw that the amount of fresh water seems to be very little! Captain Pick finally couldn't help it, and asked doubtfully.

A ship on a long voyage must carry fresh water and food, and compared to the food that can be backlogged, the area for fresh water is the main space on the ship.

You don't have to worry about this. The water tank His Highness gave me can supply five barrels of fresh water every day, which is insufficient to maintain the entire fleet, but our ten ships alone are enough. Alini smiled. In her room, Once opened, sweet water gushes out from a can. Although there is not much water gushing out, it is more than enough to fill a bucket in three hours, at least five buckets can be filled in a day, and there is still some time for the Endless Water Tank to recover its magic power.

The accompanying druid, therefore, can also be used to grow a piece of vegetables.

Under the power of druids, these vegetables grow rapidly, and a batch can be picked in almost three days, so that the highest level, at sea, can enjoy fresh vegetables.

This is undoubtedly a luxury.

Now that this question was resolved, he had no more questions and bowed.

Madam, some presidents of the Chamber of Commerce and Sirs want to see you, can you see them? The fleet is sailing, but they can connect with each other. At this time, someone said.

Alini frowned, and then unfolded again. This time, except Tetashaw Territory, all other territories actively participated, and they brought 30 boats.

According to statistics, they had sailors and soldiers, a total of 551 people.

These people actively participated, not only to do business with Tertashaw, but also to thoroughly investigate the geography, area, soil, and product conditions of the islands that will be established in the future.

It should be said that these nobles and chambers of commerce all hope to expand, and only by expanding can they have the right to acquire land and become nobles.

The second and third sons of many nobles resolutely abandoned everything and followed them, trying to obtain huge benefits through this kind of cooperation.

In the huge fleet, half of the nobles and attendants would rather not get any rewards, they just want to get a chance, even because these people flocked to try their best to squeeze into the fleet, they had to organize , had to be asked by Alini herself.

Alini frowned because of the fanaticism of these people, but she had her own considerations.

The Kingdom of Sarante was established, the first generation king was Haboba, the second generation king was the queen, the third generation king was still the queen, and the first king was the descendant of God.

Alini couldn't object to Haboba's becoming king, but she was also unwilling to completely leave it alone.

When the country was newly established, it was easiest to divide up the interests. Although Romon didn't care about this kind of interests at all now, because it was meaningless to it, but for Alini, she had to consider it.

In fact, Farfell and Nick, as well as the sons of some close nobles, are mostly followers, and they will also become part of the new nobles.

But how to arrange it took her a lot of painstaking efforts. After all, she knew that the original Duchy of Sarante had its own ruling class.

The only fortunate thing for Alini is that the other party's aristocratic class is also very young.

Besides, with the second and third sons of these nobles following, the new Sarant Kingdom will establish close ties with the mainland, which is good for the future.

Alini couldn't help but pay attention, she was silent for a moment, and said: Please send a representative here, I will talk to them personally.

Talk about how to plan and build, and divide some interests.

Even the spread of faith.

Fifty years of faith monopoly is not enough! She was thinking after learning about the sacred treaty.

The sacred treaty stipulates that the Kingdom of the New God has a 50-year monopoly period for the spread of beliefs, during which time foreign beliefs can be prohibited from spreading.

Fifty years, three generations of mortals.

The grandfather, parents, and children of a family are all showered with the light of a god. In theory, it can barely become the mainstream of faith, but in reality, the faith is not yet stable.

Thinking of this, Alini was even a little worried. To her perception, faith is the foundation of God.

How could she not plan for a rainy day for Romon?

After a sigh, footsteps were heard on the deck not far away. About twenty people, representing various nobles, chambers of commerce and even several churches, entered the reception room.

Alini contemplated restrainedly, facing the door, waiting.
