Chapter 163: To Establish a Fleet

"You guys are here," Lu Lin waved at the Qin Lang and Qin Ming.

"Magistrate Lu, you're always so kind!" Qin Ming cupped his hands and salute Lu Lin.

Lu Lin said with a lighthearted tone, "Mi and I happened to see them when we were taking a stroll on a street."

Qin Lang smiled and said to himself, 'His Lordship is always like this, he never wants to take any credit for any good deed he has done, everything is just a coincidence.'

"Plus I want to establish a fleet. I want them to publicize it for me. If there are a lot of people willing to join my fleet, it would be great."

"Magistrate Lu, what are you going to do with a fleet?" Qin Lang was confused.

"To have a fleet, of course, it's for business!"

Qin Ming touched his chin and said expectantly, "If you are really going to establish a fleet, don't you need a captain? Magistrate Lu, how about letting me be the captain?"

Qin Lang glared at Qin Ming, "What nonsense are you talking about?"

Lu Lin waved his hand and said, "Lang, don't be too harsh on your brother."

Lu Lin looked at Qin Ming with a smile, "Very good, ambitious. He is a bad soldier who doesn't dream of becoming a general. You are absolutely right, I do need a captain for my fleet, but are you a good swimmer? Have you ever been on a boat?! Are you seasick?"

"Of course I won't get seasick," Qin Ming said without thinking.

Qin Lang glanced at his brother and stifled a laughter, "You haven't been on a boat yet. It's hard to say if you're seasick or not."

Qin Ming glanced at Qin Lang unhappily. He felt that his big brother should be talking him up.

Lu Lin looked at Qin Ming with interest and asked, "Why do you want to be the captain?"

"It sounds impressive, isn't it?" Qin Ming said with bright eyes.

Qin Lang glanced at Qin Ming and sighed in his heart that his little brother could be a bit naïve sometimes. Luckily, Magistrate Lu was not the kind of person who made a fuss over things.

Lu Lin nodded and said, "If you can drive a boat, you can swim, you don't get seasick, you don't mind managing the trifles of the fleet, I can hand over this matter to you!"

Qin Ming asked excitedly, "Really? That's great, Magistrate Lu, don't worry. I'll go learn to swim right away."

Qin Lang looked at Lu Lin and asked curiously, "Magistrate Lu, I heard that you've been looking for people to build something called dormitory, is that also for the purpose of setting up the fleet?"

Lu Lin nodded. "I heard that many fishers live on their boats. If they join my fleet, they can live in the dormitory I prepare for them."

Qin Lang smiled and said, "Magistrate Lu, I know you don't like to be called as a saint, but you are! Father, Ming and I used to live in caves in the mountain, I know how much people desire for reliable accommodation!"

Lu Lin lowered his head and said, "Don't flatter me, I'm not a saint, I just want to see a win-win situation."

......

"His Lordship wants to build a fleet?" Han Feng asked Qin Ming in surprise.

Knowing that Qin Ming was one of the most trusted subordinates of Lu Lin's, Han Feng was very respectful to Qin Ming. Han Xiao Zhou, a young boy, he was afraid of talking to Qin Ming at first. Buy Qin Ming was very approachable, and he always comforted and cheered Han Xiao Zhou up, so now Han Xiao Zhou enjoyed talking to Qin Ming.
