Chapter 761: Columbus's medicine
On the Taiwan Strait, the three ships of the Columbus Fleet are carefully exploring north along the west coast of the island. Before, when sailing along the coast of Guangdong, the fleet also found fishermen to inquire, and went to a place called Crescent Island.
Why go to that crescent island? This was ordered by Malinte. The name Crescent Island is not well-known, but when it comes to Dongsha Island, there are definitely many people who know the Chinese people in later generations. In the four sands in the southeast, northwest, only the Dongsha Islands are under the control of Taiwan Island.
The area of Dongsha Island is not large. There are no hills or even mud on the island. Only coral sand is a standard coral reef. Because it is a semi-coral atoll like a crescent moon, it was called Crescent Island by the Ming Dynasty.
There is no fresh water on the island, so there is no permanent population, only a few broken houses. It is a place where Guangdong coastal fishermen temporarily rest when they go fishing.
Marin is interested in Dongsha Island because Dongsha Island has the most important strategic resource in the farming era-struvite ...
According to a historical article read by Marin's previous life, in 1901, a Japanese businessman named Nishizawa Jiji accidentally drifted to Dongsha Island. It was found that the island was full of struvite stones, which accumulated so much under the sun 15 to 20 feet, which is 6 meters thick on a 4.5-meter island. And the land area of Dongsha Island reaches 1.8 square kilometers, one can imagine how many struvite stones ......
Guano stone, as a substance formed from bird droppings, must be rich in nitrogen. At the same time, because it is dung pulled by seabirds, it is also rich in phosphorus. Because seabirds eat sea fish. Moreover, marine fish eaten by seabirds eat a lot of water plants, and the water plants contain potassium. Therefore, struvite is a natural fertilizer that contains nitrogen, phosphorus and potassium.
In the future, if Marin wants to develop the island, it will definitely be inseparable from fertilizers. It is too cost-effective to transport fertilizers from home. Therefore, it is better to dig guano stone as fertilizer on site. On Dongsha Island, Marin was scheduled as a fertilizer extraction base.
Originally, Marin also intended to use the struvite fertilizer of Dongsha Island as a bargaining chip to the Ming Dynasty. However, after careful consideration, Marin gave up decisively.
Why? It was not that he was reluctant, but that he was afraid of the serious consequences caused by it.
Why do you say that? Because the Daming Empire is a standard agricultural empire. This empire may not pay attention to commerce and navigation, but it definitely attaches importance to agriculture.
If the treasure like struvite is known by the Ming Dynasty, God knows what kind of enthusiasm will erupt from the Ming Dynasty ministers who have countless counties in each family.
As a result, Marin may personally illuminate the great navigation skills of the Ming Dynasty. And once the wealthy and powerful Ming Dynasty engaged in big sailing, then Marin still mixed up P?
If crossing through the Ming Dynasty, Marin will definitely light up the great enthusiasm of the Ming Dynasty through the guano stones of Dongsha Island. If you tell the Ming Dynasty officials about the profits of the big maritime trade, those Ming Ming officials who value agriculture and suppress business will definitely kill you-gentlemen do n’t speak for profit, can you get into the eyes of money?
However, in a different way, tell the civil servants of the Ming dynasty-going overseas, looking for struvite stones, can double the grain yield per mu ... Whatever, if anyone dares to object, they will be sprayed into dogs- how? Don't you want to double the yield per mu? The old man still thought ... Food was a big event in the feudal dynasty ...
In the Ming Dynasty, which minister did not have thousands of acres of land? Looking for struvite is in the interest of all ministers, and there will be no objection at all. The only problem is how to distribute struvite ...
Therefore, Marin believes that in the novels he has seen through the Ming dynasty, using business to lure everyone into big sailing is simply not understanding the social environment of the Ming dynasty at that time. The civil servants of the Ming Dynasty, while paying attention to interests, have a better face. You lure them with low commercial profits, but not necessarily success. After all, literati is also a good man. However, it is the most stable and direct way for you to use the increase in grain output to affect the country's major events to promote the great navigation of the Ming Dynasty. In order to obtain fertilizer, the agricultural empire of Daming will explode with unimaginable enthusiasm ... Whether it is a reformist or a conservative, no one will object ...
...
Of course, that is what the traversers who crossed to the Ming Dynasty should do. As a German prince, if Marin told Daming Dynasty this secret, then he would be mentally disabled. After all, after releasing the tiger of the Ming Dynasty to **** the cake of the big voyage, what did Marin eat for himself?
Therefore, Marin's plan is to take advantage of the Ming Dynasty's lack of attention to the interests of the ocean, quietly control Dongsha Island, and dig the guano stone on the island to use it on Taiwan Island ...
...
After exploring the location of Dongsha Island, Columbus took note of the coordinates of Dongsha Island. Then, command the fleet and continue to sail northeast. After approaching Taiwan, it started sailing north along the west coast of Taiwan.
When passing by the Penghu Islands, the fleet did not alarm the Penghu Inspection Department. After all, they came here to seize Dongfan Island, and some of them were unknowable, and naturally they did not want to alarm the Penghu defenders of the Ming Dynasty.
In fact, the Penghu defenders could hardly find Columbus' fleet. Because Penghu Island is more than 40 kilometers away from the island of Taiwan. The Ming Army did not have a telescope, and Columbus's fleet sailed against the west coast of Taiwan Island. At such a long distance, the Ming Army could not see it.
After passing the area near Penghu Island, Columbus and Contai were relieved. Afterwards, Columbus, who is not in the key, invited Kong Tai to play with dozens of Malay girls from Malacca Sultan. These girls are miserable. When Malacca boarded the ship, there were a total of 50 people, but now, there are only 34 left. Of the remaining 16 people, 6 people were unfit for sea life, and the remaining 6 people were purely tossed to death by Columbus and the sailors.
These little girls were originally very small, their bodies have not yet opened, even if they were violated by the Columbus villain, and they were shared with the sailors by Columbus ... The girl who died first was after receiving 12 sailors , Tossed to death ...
Both Kong Tai and Skandar were educated by Marin's modern civilization thoughts, and they were very uncomfortable with Columbus' behavior of being a child. However, his identity is not as good as that of Columbus. In this era of strict hierarchy, he is not good at teaching Columbus what to do, but only when he has not seen it.
In fact, during the period of time at the Qinglou Building in Guangzhou, Columbus's body was already collapsed because of his great fun. After all, it was a high-end Qinglou, and the women and women in it looked very beautiful. The point is, the skin is very white ... If it weren't for the difference in hair and eyeballs, and the nose, Columbus regarded them as white beauties ...
The long dark Malay girls of Columbus are willing to go, not to mention the snow-white and pink high-end Qinglu women. So, when Columbus was excited, he lost his kidney ...
But it doesn't matter, after crossing the Penghu Island, Columbus got excited and planned to insult those Malay girls again.
Only, his kidney is not good now. Although Kong Tai prescribes a lot of medicines for tonifying kidney, such as ginseng and deer antler in Guangzhou, the important effects come slowly. Columbus has not recovered.
How to do it? Columbus, the old silver worm, had his own way. He saw that he carefully took out a box. After opening, he took out a small porcelain bottle ...
Although Kong Tai did not accept Columbus's happy proposal, he was curious about the small porcelain bottle that Columbus brought out. Obviously, this is what Columbus got in Guangzhou. After all, there are no porcelain bottles in Europe. And, look at what Columbus looks like, it looks like something good ...
"Master Columbus, what is this?" Kong Tai asked curiously.
"Haha, good thing. With this thing, I can immediately reinvigorate the man ..." Columbus said wretchedly. Obviously, this porcelain bottle is filled with medicine for happiness.
"Where did this thing come from?" Kong Tai asked.
"Of course it was from Tianxianglou (the high-level Qinglou that Columbus stayed for a long time)!" Columbus said proudly.
It turned out that after Columbus's stay in Tianxianglou, he suffered a little kidney loss. But the old bustard also expected him to continue looking for girls to consume, so he gave him a few bottles of drugs to help her continue to consume.
Columbus proudly raised a small porcelain bottle and said:
"This is called" Yingdingtian ", which is made of many precious medicinal materials and is worth thousands of copper coins. With it, I can" love "the little girls, which can last more than 30 minutes ..."
"Obe, so powerful ..." Kong Tai was a little stunned. It's not uncommon for 30 minutes, but it's strange for an old man with kidney deficiency like Columbus. You know, Columbus is 55 years old ...
"No, Master Columbus, I didn't arrange an interpreter for you. How did you communicate with those Daming mothers?" Kong Tai remembered that he seemed to have just lost a few large silver ingots to Qinglou's mother. Don't care about Columbus.
"Well, you know, I also know some Arabic. (Before, in order to find Indian routes, Columbus learned Arabic for a while. In Calicut, India, Columbus also communicated with the locals through Arabic. After all, There are many Arabic merchants in Calicut, and there are also many who know Arabic there.) It happened that Daming, the Chief Secretary assigned me a translator (translator) who understood Arabic, and then I took him in the Qinglou The horse is racing ... "
"It turns out that ..." Kong Tai realized. The Ming Dynasty and Arab merchants also have contacts, and it is not surprising that there are interpreters who understand Arabic.
Later, Columbus took out another porcelain bottle and proudly introduced:
"This is called" Yu Yivu becomes fierce sister-in-law ", and it is also a wonderful medicine that my mother Sang sent me to help. After taking this, even a cold woman will become enthusiastic ... Unfortunately, these little girls are too young, not yet It ’s useless to eat, but to go back to Las Vegas in the North Sea, I can use it on those Mao girls ... hehe ... "
Kong Tai is speechless ...
"This is called" I love a firewood ", it's more powerful ..."
"This is called" Tianzhu God Oil "..."
"This is ..."
...
Finally, Columbus pulled out a red porcelain bottle. He froze for a moment, then said:
"This seems to be useless, what is called" sterilization powder ". Mom Sang said, it seems to be for the female supporter, so that they will never get pregnant, and it is permanent ... it seems, nothing to me Use ... "After finishing talking, he planned to throw it away.
"Don't do it!" Kong Tai froze for a moment, then suddenly shouted and grabbed the little red porcelain bottle directly from Columbus ...
why? Because when Marin taught Confucian Chinese, he casually said, "If there is a bottle for women to eat, they will never get pregnant." And they said, "This kind of medicine is probably only available in Daming" ... Then, Kong Tai remembered ...
But ~ www.wuxiaspot.com ~ Before this departure, Marin did not instruct (perhaps forget) Kong Tai to find this medicine, and Kong Tai didn't think of it.
Today, Columbus took out the drug and planned to throw it away. Contai suddenly remembered it, and then grabbed the drug and planned to take it back to Marlin ...
"What do you want this medicine for? Don't you want future generations?" Columbus was a little strange.
"It's a secret ... By the way, does this medicine smell bad? Will it feel?" Kong Tai didn't answer, but asked Columbus instead, shifting the topic.
Columbus thought about it and said:
"Mom Sang said that it ’s colorless and tasteless, and it does n’t feel like eating. Men eat it without any side effects, but if a woman eats for seven days, she will be weak and sick for a few days. Fertility, but it does not affect women's passion ... In other words, what is this day Kwai? "
Kong Tai had learned Chinese, and naturally knew it was the civilized name of the moon, but he did n’t even think about it and explained it to Columbus.
