Chapter 683 Prepare to return

The war was still a one-sided victory.

The enemy was completely wiped out, and five ships that were not so badly burned were captured. The other Japanese pirate ships were either sunk or burned.

But no one died in the Agate Kingdom, only a few were injured.

This is the first war since the founding of the country, and it is also a hearty start. The people of the Agate country are overjoyed.

The king and the eldest prince were indeed gods sent by heaven to save them, and they created miracles beyond their imagination.

Even the fierce fire oil was a gift from God to them. Otherwise, these two battles would not have gone so smoothly.

Support the king and the great prince, and their Agate Kingdom will definitely become stronger and more promising!

Qiao Dajiang re-sent several envoys to the Japanese island to deliver the credentials. Now that some surrounding countries have received the news of the establishment of the Agate Kingdom, the Japanese people should not dare to covertly kill the envoys as if they have not received the credentials.

As long as you accept the credentials, it means recognizing the establishment of this country. If you want to blatantly invade this country, you will initiate a war, and other countries can send troops to support you.

Mo Beihan has promised that after returning to the capital of Dayue, he will advise the emperor to establish an alliance between Dayue and the Agate Kingdom, support the establishment of the Agate Kingdom and provide help, such as transporting food supplies and sending people to teach farming.

The Onyx Kingdom guarded this maritime checkpoint for Dai Viet and did not allow ambitious countries like Japan to send troops to Dai Viet.

The big trouble here has been solved, and it's time to prepare to go back.

With a few days left, Qiao Ran stepped up to teach her apprentices pharmacology and medical knowledge.

In her spare time, she wanders around Agate Island and other islands.

There are indeed many coveted treasures on these islands, not only those agates and jades of excellent color, but also many rare medicinal herbs that are not found on land.

Qiao Ran explored these islands like an explorer entering a treasure trove.

In jungles, caves, mountaintops, seaside, and even under the sea, we were very busy going up mountains and down to the sea.

Naturally, the harvest is also full, including fine agates, jade rough stones, various rare medicinal herbs, as well as large pearls from the sea, clam shells, exquisite coral trees, etc.

Qiao Ran even picked up a ten-pound piece of ambergris at the beach, and found a piece of agarwood that was more than ten meters long in a pile of dead wood that the islanders had picked up for firewood.

These two things are rare treasures. Qiao Ran put them directly into the space. They will be of great use in the future!

Qiao Ran, who was a little too happy to find the treasure, felt that time passed very quickly.

A few days later, Vice General Cheng found her.

"Brother Qiao, you are going back tomorrow. Tell Uncle Qiao to quickly arrange the affairs here and leave early tomorrow!"

Qiao Ran was shocked to realize that tomorrow was the day to set off back to Dai Viet.

"Okay, thank you, Brother Cheng, for reminding me! I'm going to get my dad ready."

Qiao Dajiang has also been very busy these days.

In addition to handling the affairs of the island, he also had to receive envoys from various countries who came to congratulate him one after another.

Although Agate Country has a small population and has just been established, due to its strategic location, many countries must pass through Agate Country if they want to go to Dai Viet and other land countries.

Therefore, it is essential to have a good relationship with the Agate Kingdom.

Several nearby countries have sent envoys to send congratulatory gifts, and envoys from several more distant countries are probably on their way.

Qiao Dajiang had people prepare special products from the Agate Kingdom as a return gift, and signed a covenant of non-aggression and mutual assistance with these envoys.

When Qiao Ran said that he would leave for Dai Viet tomorrow, Qiao Dajiang didn't know whether to be happy or sad.

Of course he was very happy to be able to go back and reunite with his family after so many years of absence.

However, after this trip, I don’t know when I will be able to return to the Agate Kingdom.

After all, I have lived here for several years, so it would be a lie to say that I have no feelings.

Although there are many people here who are selfish, vicious, and have ulterior motives like the old chief and Blinka, most of the islanders are still kind and honest.

Qiao Dajiang still felt a little reluctant to leave this place where he had lived for several years, and to leave these islanders who were very familiar with him and fought side by side to resist foreign enemies.

Qiao Ran thought she would see her father's surprised expression, but she didn't expect to see not only joy but also some reluctance on his face.

When you think about it, you will understand that dad is reluctant to leave his people!

"Dad, are you reluctant to leave here?"

Qiao Ran poured a glass of water and handed it to her father and asked softly.

Qiao Dajiang smiled: "Yes, after all, we have been in love for several years, and I am really reluctant to leave suddenly. However, compared to you, your mother, and your grandma, I naturally want to go back with you as soon as possible. You live together."

"Don't worry, Dad. After I get back, I will find someone to build a big, sturdy boat. In the future, we can often bring our family here to live here for a while, just think of it as our second home."

Qiao Dajiang was pleased and moved after hearing his daughter's words:

"Thank you, Ranran! I'm so lucky to have such a smart, capable and filial daughter like you!"

Qiao Ran also smiled: "Dad, I am also very lucky to have such a good family like you."

Although she did not come from a wealthy family, and although she had no blood relationship with these people in her previous life, the warmth given to her by the Qiao family made her feel particularly precious.

That night, Qiao Dajiang asked people to carry things to the boat basket by basket.

He taught the people on the island to weave the basket with rattan. It is very strong and durable. It also has a lid on it, which is connected to the rattan basket. After loading the things, you can close the lid so that you can't see what's inside.

Qiao Dajiang did not bother the officers and soldiers of the coastal defense camp, but asked Bama to bring a dozen strong men to carry it.

Mu Er and the others saw him and took the initiative to help.

On this return trip, Qiao Dajiang only planned to take Bama back to Dai Viet. This was the promise he had made with Bama before.

As the king of a country, naturally he cannot be neglected.

Vice General Cheng quickly asked someone to free up another empty cabin for Qiao Dajiang and Bama to live in.
