Four hundred and twentieth chapters peace and wealth

"Everyone, I know what you are going to. Let's decide which ship is docked and unloaded by lottery. Don't worry, this is just a port on our voyage. Alin's hometown hasn't been there yet, so don't be afraid that the goods will not be sold. According to this trend, I think that our ten ships of goods are not enough to sell." Before Said came back, the sea merchants on the cargo ships all ran to the deck of the King of the Sea to gather in small boats.

Hong Tao knew that they were a little jealous when they saw the Wu family shipped in Aden Port first. This time he did not designate who would dock and ship the goods by himself, but gave the right to God. The six maritime merchants who followed him this time were all the most powerful and powerful big profiteers in the Straits company. It doesn’t matter who ships first and who will ship later. Hong Tao believes that they will not suffer any losses in business. As long as they can ensure their safety, they don’t have to worry about how to sell goods, and they don’t have to worry about purchasing goods.

"Those who wear outer jackets are Turkish mullahs and Bayi. The elderly who can return from the Holy City of Mecca can be called Haji. This is a praise for them." This time, Hong Tao was killed and he could not go ashore. He was in the cabin of the King of the Sea to observe the situation on the dock with a telescope through the glass window. Said and Alin were also holding a telescope. Said also explained to Hong Tao what the difference was between the people on the shore, and performed the role of this Arab consultant very well.

"Master Baiyi... Is there any Afanti?" Hearing the word Baiyi, a character in a cartoon immediately appeared in Hong Tao's mind, wearing a big robe, with a white cloth wrapped around his head, a mustache, and riding a small donkey... I often watched it when I was a child.

"...That's in Greek. Persians and Byzantines like this. Why did Your Majesty know them? Did Your Majesty also see them in books?" Said was surprised at Hong Tao's question. Scholars like him who have traveled to most Arab cities and visited Byzantine, North Africa and Europe seem to have not known much about Hong Tao's Arab world. Where does this knowledge come from?

"Yes, my hometown used to have a large library. As long as there are people in the world, there are records in the books..." Hong Tao knew that he had let go of the words again, so he had to lift Australia out as a shield. Anyway, it has sunk, so he would say whoever is not there.

"But why haven't I heard of Australians coming here? There are no records in the books here and Naples' books." Sayed is not easy to be confusing. The more knowledge you know, the more reactionary you become, it makes sense. You said that if all the people were as knowledgeable as Sayed, how could Hong Tao rule them! Even people who made up lies were questioned by them, let alone using their passion and fooling people.

"Those books were left by ancestors a hundred years ago. Australians only like to travel around but are unwilling to do business, so their lives are getting poorer and even the sea boats can't be built. So, we cannot underestimate trade, it can help in doing research. The more prosperous the trade, the closer the communication will be. If scholars from all countries can sit together, many problems will be easily solved. When I go back this time, I plan to build a royal university in Kalamba Port, and invite all countries to like you

Such scholars come to teach. Not only do they teach, but they also have to communicate with each other. All the funds are borne by the Royal Family. The university does not charge tuition fees, but the results of the research must be given to the Royal Family first. Is this fair? If you are willing, I would like to invite you to be one of the leaders of the preparatory committee of this university. Use your reputation and knowledge to invite more people with real talents and knowledge to the Royal University." In order to fulfill his lies, Hong Tao was also a fight. Not only did he lose money, he was also appointed as an official.

"...But I promised His Majesty William to return to Naples..." Said immediately let the big pie thrown by Hong Tao faint. He forgot everything about Australia, and his eyes were full of little stars.

"I'll tell William. He is a poor emperor and can't afford much money to do research funds. He might as well let the University of Naples and the Royal University form one. Every two or three years, the two sides send scholars to visit each other. Isn't this all solved? Old Sai, scholars like you who specialize in political and social models of various countries must go and see more. I'll give the Royal University two sea boats, and scholars in the university can follow the sea merchant ships to various countries to eat and drink along the way, so that they can produce results as soon as possible. A person's life is limited, and if they are wasted all on the journey and preparing for travel, isn't this going to waste the money?"

"That's it. Go and get a personal list, write down the people you want to invite, and then write them one by one, so that they can go to Aden, Jeddah, Maska, Hormuz, and Basra. Merchant ships have to stay here for a long time before returning. They can go back to Kalamba Port with the merchant ship." Hong Tao was getting more excited. In fact, he had long wanted to build a comprehensive university that looked more like later generations, with teaching as the supplement and research as the main focus. But there were no suitable candidates at hand, so this matter was put aside. After several months of contact with Said, he found that the old man was a pure scholar and had no distractions. That was him.

Said left with a flushed face and ran back to his cabin to draw up a list. Money was not very tempting for him, and being an official was not something he pursued, but this Royal University was too tempting for him. In addition, with Hong Tao, an emperor who is also knowledgeable, knowledgeable and supports knowledge, this is definitely the will of Allah. Hurry up. As for Hong Tao’s other purpose, he didn’t have time to think about it.

"Your Majesty, there is no place to build a university in the Port of Kalamba. Those damn merchants built shops beside the palace walls, and the city was full..." Alin reminded Hong Tao with kindness.

"There is no place? I can't even squeeze out a university?" Hong Tao didn't notice this problem. It was true that Kalamba Port has developed rapidly in recent years, but he didn't expect it to be so fast.

"Unless the residents of the city are moved out of the city... but Governor Bo refused to let him go, and even King Taba could not convince him."

"Oh, right, Kalamba Port is very prosperous, and there are also local residents here, and it is indeed not appropriate to bomb people outside the city. However, residents cannot move, and other people may not be able to move. When you go back and tell Bojiao, it is my suggestion to ask King Taba to give up the palace to me as a university, and I will pay him to build a larger and better palace in another place. In fact, his palace is not suitable for Kalamba Port. How can a king of a country stay in a port? This is not safe, let him move to the inland." As a result, Hong Tao's eyes rolled, and King Taba's palace was gone.

That night, Hong Tao's fleet was forced to leave Jeddah Port and continue to head north. With his huge ships parked outside Jeddah Port, many small boats from North Africa dared not dock, which seriously interfered with the order of going to the Holy City to pilgrimage. Emir here was quite polite, and specially sent a son to find Said, asking if the fleet could be moved slightly. People are so polite, Hong Tao is also a reasonable person, so just leave.

The fleet did not continue north along the Red Sea, but left two warships and two merchant ships and turned back. Through inquiries at the Port of Aden and Jeddah, Hong Tao did not find any ports for his fleet to dock on the coastline north of Jeddah. He also asked one thing clearly. The Yousuf tribe who attacked Kalamba Port was at the end of the Red Sea. The west coast of the Gulf of Suez were their territory. If you want to transport goods from the Red Sea to Cairo and Alexandria, you must pass through the places ruled by the Yousuf tribe.

Compared with the friendly receptions at Aden Port and Jeddah Port, Hong Tao did not believe that the Yousuf tribe would be happy to see its fleet. Hong Tao was not afraid of any Arab tribes or countries, but it was useless to defeat them. He wanted to occupy an Islamic city in an environment surrounded by enemies and maintain it. It was not what the Jinhe Kingdom's national strength could achieve at present. So Hong Tao chose to hide. Since there was no advantage in the past, it would be better to go to a place that was easier to take advantage. As a businessman, it would be a good fortune!
