    Qi Jingtong attacked.

    With the Ming Dynasty¡¯s most powerful navy and the most elite navy, they slowly left Penglai Water Village.

    Fang Jifan received a letter from Tang Yin.

    In Fang Jifan¡¯s view, the most annoying thing for scholars is that they especially like to use modifications when describing something.

    "Why do we see giant fish now? We have never seen it before."  The ones I'm used to seeing are loach ears, which are quite huge.  Jumping on the waves and drumming, the sound is like thunder.

    Damn it

    What kind of monster is this? It¡¯s so scary.

    ¡°Could it be that in ancient times there were sea beasts that no one in later generations has ever seen? They were awesome.

    But when Tang Yin described the giant fish coming out of the spring, Fang Jifan's tiger body trembled, and it turned out to be a whale.

    "The description is so scary. It is really a bad habit of educated people who will not change it. If you say it is more than ten feet tall, eight or nine feet long, black body, and flesh as white as condensed fat, wouldn't it be enough?"  If you have to show off your literary talents at this time, you won't be able to speak well.

    ???????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????¡­

    It was unexpected that Tang Yin and Hu Kaishan would put their mind to this.

    Fang Jifan squinted his eyes, with a look of greed in his eyes.

    "As the anchors of later generations always say, *** is full of treasures.

    This is indeed true, because for the great Chinese nation, there is really no animal in this world that is not full of treasures. No matter whether you swim in the water or crawl on the ground, you can always eat

    Of course, whales are not just edible.

    Every year, hundreds of ships depart from the port and bring back whale oil and whale products from the ocean. The whale oil can be made into candles. For people at that time, candles made from whale oil were  Candles are almost the best, and there will never be a better substitute.

    Not only that, whale meat can also be eaten. Although it is a bit fishy, ??if you add Chinese cooking, you can easily remove the fishy smell.

    At that time, 735 of the 900 whaling ships in the world were from the United States.  Huge economic interests drive Americans with good business genes to sting baby whales on the temperamental ocean, and then trap the mother whales that refuse to leave.

    At that time, whaling was by no means just a romantic adventure as people imagined, but an out-and-out economic engine. At that time, the immigrants from the American continent first arrived in the Americas where the land was barren and rocky, making farming difficult, and the ocean became food.  and main source of income.  Whaling is a lucrative business, and one whale can bring an income to each crew member equivalent to half a year's salary of a land worker.  Women continue to disguise themselves as men and work on boats.  In the golden age, American whaling ships were like a floating factory on the sea. After the whales came up, they could continue to hunt whales while boiling whale blubber into oil in a pot on the ship.  In addition, whale baleen can be deformed after being roasted with fire and can maintain its shape after cooling. Like plastic, it is used to make various daily necessities such as bras, umbrella ribs, and fishing rods.

    Countless people revolve around whaling and are engaged in manufacturing, refining, whaling, etc., creating millions of jobs.

    And now

    Fang Jifan also became interested in whaling. During the Ming Dynasty, a large amount of whale oil was also needed to replace the existing wax oil for lighting.  Not to mention, one whale is equivalent to hundreds of pigs, how much meat can this provide?

    From Tang Yin's description, Fang Jifan roughly understood the process of the majestic Zhenguo Gong's losses. These sailors, who had never experienced a real naval battle, made frequent mistakes when encountering emergencies.

    In fact to a certain extent, whaling can also be used to train Japanese guards.

    You must know that fighting whales on the vast ocean is almost a battle situation for all the people on a ship. The negligence of any one person in a team is a terrible thing.

    Since we can¡¯t use Japanese pirates to practice our skills now, we might as well just use whales to practice our skills.

    Fang Jifan immediately began to think hard about the method of hunting whales, and then replied a letter to Tang Yin.

    I sent the letter and let out a sigh of relief. I couldn't help but blame myself. Whaling is very dangerous. Xiao Tang, Xiao Tang, I leave this to you. My mentor has more important things to do and needs to stay in the capital.  , I can¡¯t share the difficulties with you, um I wish you good luck!

    The weather is getting hotter and hotter.

    Fang Jifan was wearing a summer shirt and hung the purse embroidered by Princess Taikang on his waist. His father had not sent a letter for a long time, which made Fang Jifan worry about whether hehad found a stepmother for himself.

    "There is no way to continue like this. Dad, my son is old and it's time to get a wife."

    With this thought, Fang Jifannbsp; A group of ducks who have been in drought for more than a hundred years really think that they can defeat a group of Japanese pirates traveling across the ocean just by building a few ships that are as good as the original Sanbao eunuchs?

    This is not Fang Jifan destroying his prestige.

    ?????????????????? Water fighting is a technical job, and he definitely can¡¯t win with courage.  What's more, when it comes to courage, how can a group of military households, who are discriminated against by the literati, refuse to allocate money and food on time, and starve people every now and then, compete with those brutal thieves?

    But at this time, I heard that Emperor Hongzhi wanted to deal with Qi Jingtong.

    This Qi Jingtong seems to be Qi Jiguang's father.

    This personis indeed a famous general.

    Although his achievements were far inferior to those of Qi Jiguang, and he was said to be inferior to his son, Fang Jifan believed that Qi Jingtong was just unrecognized for his talent. During the Chenghua and Hongzhi dynasties he had experienced, the imperial court did not have much vigilance against Japanese pirates. Naturally, it would never be possible for him to use them.  Chance.

    But even so, Qi Jingtong still showed his prominence in history with his true ability.

    Fang Jifan hesitated for a moment, should he take a risk for Qi Jiguang's father?

    After pondering for a moment, Fang Jifan laughed: "Hahahaha"

    Not surprisingly, Fang Jifan received countless looks as if this person was mentally retarded.  (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
