After a long voyageI'm finally back home. Emperor Yonglo was very happy with our expedition and granted me a big property I can live on. Guess I'm retiring. Thank you Yonglo for funding and letting me go on this fantastic voyage! Ima go eat ma dumplings now. Bone a pet eat.
Hopefully we helped the different places we traveled to. I mean we gave them Allah, spices, protection, deals, and made them an allay to the great Chinese Empire! And I mean now everybody loves China, and sees it as the ultimate empire not to fight with. #ChinaDaBest
After tommorow is our ride back, just realised that I wont be seeing these so different cultures for a long time. All these different places have awesome and different foods, parties, and just ways of living, it really taught us and showed us new things, like Jianzi, from Calicut
Ugh wer leaving going back soon had so much fun on this last voyage. Luckily it was successfull traded and met everyone I had to. And most importantly I built a bunch of mosques and turned a bunch of godless people into faithfull Allah followers, they should be.
We're going to be here for about two months, and I have a lot of meetings here. I never realised how many relationships Yonglo has, and how he's constantly making trades and deals. Off to my next meeting with the one of the rabbi here. #busy
Hormuz is our biggest "client" so we get the most money from them for our protection. Which means that we have better trade deals here. Basically all of our spices that we have left we are trading here. Which kind of sucks cause its going to stink all de way back home. #ByeSpices
17 January 1433 - Well I made it to Hormuz today, My other ships should be arriving at Mecca anytime now. All the rocks are so colourful here and the people are so nice. We're all so so surprised at how welcoming they are. This is a good place to be friendly with.
Yo, I saw two of my 15 year old powder monkeys, kicking this small rock with feathers in the air. They called it Jianzi, and its so fun. You just kick it in the air to someone else. I never saw it before, but maybe it could be the next big thing. I mean look at this vid:
Damn, I was just sailing and outa nowhere these huge af fish with weird backs pop up. But they look coool. And the best part, is that they jump everywhere like crazy. Yes! Out of the water they jump. Dude it's crazy.
Crap, one of my crew members somehow got smallpox. That really sucks cause smallpox is contagious af. We through his body overboard right away, but he was still on the boat. Hope nothing happens to anybody else. #scaredaf. Heres what his hand looked like, disgusting.
14 December 1432 - Left Calicut, we're going to be about a month on water, before we make it to Hormuz. Still sad about not making it to Mecca. I figured I can also build more mosques in Hormuz, creating the plans right now.
Me and My advisors agreed that after Mecca we're going to go to Hormuz, and then back home. Already collected money here for their safety, so we're all done in Calicut. Hope to leave soon. And it's getting hotter every day, ughhh.
Ok so to my great dissatisfaction, and sadness, I can't make it to Mecca 😭😭, which sucks so much, ughhhh. Anyway I instead sent three of my ships to Mecca for me, and there going to stop at Aden and Medina also. Hope that makes up for my failed fifth pillar. #sad#disapointed
2 December 1432 - Made it to Kalikat, and met back up with ma homies man was that reunion party lit. Only gonna be here for four days but man do we have to make a lot decisions. But today ima just enjoy where im staying at:
Not in Kalikat yet, but I think I got a hang of this, and am used to it. Wake up at 5, clean myself, eat at 5:30, at 6 check for any damage and request repair, 7:30 meeting with my advisors till 10, after that I walk around on board make sure everything is ok, after i just steer.
2 December 1432 - Leaving Beruvala today, to go meet back up with ma homie in Kalikat. My advisors said we may not have enough time for a pilgrimage to Mecca. I through one of them overboard. I can't not go, just can't. Anyway gotta get my crew together cause we bout to leave.
Still in Beruvela, arrived two day ago, prob gonna laeve tommorow. We kind of taught them how things normally work, but unfortunatley not enough time to introduce them to the magic of Islam. We traded, and they paid us for protection. Success. But damn look at this sunset. #WOW
