Chapter 387: 387 Clippers

Chapter 387 387. Clippers

As luck would have it, the group of people walked more than a hundred miles and bumped into Chi Zimo, who was walking through the city.

He is not low-key at all. He travels with many entourages and all kinds of outfits. Those who don't know better think that he is moving.

Chi is really lucky to meet old friends here.

He had a harmless smile on his face, but both Xiao Tingyi and Feng Jinyao knew that he had been waiting here deliberately after getting the news that they were going to the southwest.

The head of the Chi family is really well-informed.

Although there was nothing taboo about Xiao Tingyi's trip, it was also very low-key.

Unexpectedly, Chi Zimo not only knew the news, but could also rush ahead of them while carrying so many things.

The ability is not that small.

This also indirectly proves the ability of the Chi family in Jinling City. As expected, no rumor can escape him.

Your Majesty, youre welcome. I was just a little worried about the food that was sent over, so I decided to go and have a look in person. I didnt expect to meet your Majesty! What a coincidence.

The dignified head of the Chi family would personally set off to the southwest for ten million loads of grain. If outsiders found out about this, they would not laugh out loud.

But now, he had the nerve to use this as an excuse, but Xiao Tingyi did not expose it.

Instead, he had an idea and took advantage of Chi Zimo.

"I also think it's a coincidence. If that's the case, let's go together. I've long heard that the Chi family is not only very successful in water transportation, but also in river transportation. Taking the water route is much faster than the land route. It can take up to six months. By the end of the day, I think we will be in the southwest."

The distance between Jinling City and Southwest China is at least a few thousand miles. If they rely on horseback riding, it will take almost 15 to 20 days. Not to mention that they are bringing Feng Jinyao and others in a carriage, which may delay them for as long as a month.

But if you travel by river, the speed is self-evident.

Six days?

Chi Zimo couldn't help but be surprised again by the virtue of King Ding.

He really knows how to take advantage of it.

Although the big boat is stable, it travels slower. Although the small boat is fast, it is inevitably dangerous when encountering rapid rivers. Especially after entering the southwest boundary, the flood situation is not yet known, so he is not completely sure that he can go all the way. Travel to Shuzhou.

Pianding Wang Hui said.

If he can do it, he will only get a few words of praise, but if he can't do it, it will make outsiders laugh at the Chi family.

Just one sentence made Chi Zimo feel like he was riding a tiger, it was really Xiao Tingyi.

They both had smiles on their faces, but the mutual testing in their eyes was very obvious.

Qiao Shanwei rode up to the carriage and whispered to Feng Jinyao inside.

When it comes to ruthlessness, the prince is more skilled.

Feng Jinyao didn't say anything. She had known King Ding's abilities for two lifetimes. She didn't care what others said.

After a while, Chi Zimo slowly spoke.

Since the prince is so interested in enjoying the scenery along the way, he will definitely make good arrangements for it.

As expected, they soon came to a ship with the Chi family's brand name on it.

Compared with the official ship, it is much more exquisite and compact, but just looking at the outside, you can see that the ship is expensive to build.

They are all made of fragrant cedar wood and painted with tung oil. The front of the boat is sharp, which is most suitable for driving on the river. The middle is wide and easy to ride on. The boatmen on it all look strong and strong, which surprised Feng Jinyao and others. .

This is a speedboat specially built by our Chi family. The fastest speed can reach a thousand miles a day.

Chi Zimo said a few words, but Xiao Tingyi fell silent.

As far as he knows, the speed of the military's fast boats can only reach 600 miles a day, and that's only if the wind and water are smooth. This Chi family's boat is almost twice as fast. No wonder it has been able to dominate the sea transportation to this day. It really has some skills in it.

Looking at Xu Lin and Yang Zhao, the meaning is self-evident.

Since they were going to stay on this ship for several days, they naturally had to explore it from top to bottom.

Even if the ship cannot be built, the rough drawings must be collected.

Chi Zimo might as well think of Xiao Tingyi's "sneaky" mentality, which is quite open and generous.

He stretched out his hand and invited him to come forward. Xiao Ting was not polite about this.

Well, this would be disrespectful to me.

Turning his head to look at Feng Jinyao, he saw her following him and standing behind him, then he took her hand as if no one else was there and climbed onto the deck.

The entourages around the two of them were already used to it, but Chi Zimo was a little happy.

How come the last time we met, it seemed that Miss Feng San was still a bit repulsive towards Prince Ding, but this time she openly asked him to declare her sovereignty?

Looks like a lot of interesting things have happened these days.

Thinking of this in my mind, the smile on my face became even more obvious.

After all the luggage and horses were on board, the Chi family's speedboat headed straight for Shuzhou along the waterway.

When he actually sat on the boat, Xiao Tingyi was no less shocked than Feng Jinyao and others.

This ship is not only fast, but also very stable.

Basically you cant feel any big shaking, so its very friendly to people suffering from seasickness.

And this ship seems to have been prepared long ago, with clean water and food.

The cook on the ship was specially brought by Chi Zimo, and he was very good at cooking Jiangnan cuisine. Because of this, Feng Jinyao's appetite improved a lot.

Seeing her eating comfortably, Xiao Tingyi even thought of taking down the cook.

Who would have thought that Chi Zimo was unwilling to give up his love.

Cook Weis skills have been developed since I was a snack, so please dont force me, Your Majesty.

Speaking of this, Xiao Tingyi couldn't say much more, but it didn't matter. The cook was not the only one who was good at Jiangnan cuisine. As long as Ayao liked it, not to mention Jiangnan cuisine, even Mobei cuisine. There is a way to find an authentic one.

It took them only five days to arrive at the southwest border smoothly.

The Chi family's clipper could have traveled all the way to Shuzhou.

Unfortunately, the floods in the southwest exceeded their imagination. Not only did the river surge, but the weather was unfavorable and it kept raining.

I heard from the locals that it has been raining for three consecutive days.

It is not a flood, but the dams and fertile fields that have been washed away by the water have long been washed away. After adding this, they are now covered with mud, which makes people feel devastated.

So they had no choice but to disembark and continue walking overland.

Fortunately, it is not far from Shuzhou. If you walk faster, you can probably get there in two or three days.

As they walked along the way, they could see civilians digging for everything they could eat.

The dykes were washed away and fertile fields were flooded. The houses were not damaged much, but there were many less things to eat.

It has been more than half a month since the flood. They have not saved much food. They are frugal and can barely survive for a month. But what will happen after one month?

The common people didn't know, so they could only make as many preparations as possible before the court sent people to rescue them.
