A group of indigenous dwellers appeared in the fields and began to tidy up the ridges, pile up the ridges, hoe the grass with simple wooden hoes, sow seeds and apply fertilizer.
If the indigenous people of other tribes pass by, they will be surprised to find that the people here behave very differently than before.
Because people here used to grow crops by poking small holes in the wet grass with sticks, and then throwing the seeds of corn kernels, peas, zucchini and other plants into them, without hoeing the grass or tidying up the neat patches of fields.
At the same time, these hoes and other working tools they have never seen before, they are really novelty. If they stop for a while, they'll discover more new and strange things.
The people here have cattle and horses but don't know how to let them carry things, and now they will find that the people here use cattle and horses to carry things. They didn't know how to build a cart and use the wheels to save effort, but now they find that there are many one-wheeled, two-wheeled and even four-wheeled wooden carts.
These were all taught to these local natives by the messengers of the Kingdom of Heaven, and the people of Heaven also gave them a uniform name, saying that they were called Han people. Β°
The driver of this kingdom of heaven is naturally Xia Xun and his party.
Xia Xun's fleet landed in Alaska, which is now not called Alaska, but Wangming Island. This name was not taken by Xie Jin, but Xiao Di. Xia Xun felt that it was very meaningful, so he asked the stonemason to erect a stone tablet there, and officially decided on the name Wangming.
At the same time, he also officially changed back to his own name---- Xia Xun, although except for Xiao Di and Ziqi, the other family members didn't understand why he changed his name at all, but he still did it.
The climate of "Wangming" is very cold, and the temperature in summer is not high, let alone winter, and it is still too close to Daming, and it is no secret that there is such a huge and boundless land in a place very close to Daming for these people who have come all the way across the ocean.
In order to prevent people from leaving their homeland and looking for an opportunity to escape back, Xia Xun could only lead them to continue walking in depth for safety, and after nearly a month's trek, they landed in the middle of this new world.
He believed that without knowing the geography of the world, and without leaving any charts along the way, it would not be possible to leave the entire crew of the ship unless they rebelled, relying on their experience and memory, or might escape, and thus identified this place as a settlement.
As they anchored, disembarked, and rested, the crew discovered that they were not alone in the New World, but that there were already inhabitants of the new continent, the natives who would later be known as the Indians.
Their greatest fear was to be abandoned from the rest of the world, and the discovery that there were already inhabitants here, and who were also black-haired and yellow-skinned, gradually settled their panic.
After a few months of getting along, Xie Jin was excited to find that the people here are likely to be descendants of Yan and Huang like himself, and they should be the remnants of Yin Shang.
He found that some local natives called children "dolls", and the pronunciation of "you, me, and him" by the natives in some places was called "Ning, Nei, Yi", the river was called a river, and the boat was called a sampan, and the boy with a hanging bun was no different from the dress of a child in the Central Plains.
As they settled down and were able to get a closer look at the new world, he discovered many ancient stone carvings, the words on which were very similar to the oracle bone inscriptions he had dabbled in, and some of the characters were even identical.
Shortly thereafter, Xia Xun and his team built houses and castles in the area, and unearthed sixteen jade statues from the ground, whose faces were no different from those of the Han Chinese, and their heads were deliberately carved high and long.
Xie Jin knew that this style of sculpture was a custom admired by the people of the Yin Shang era, and where the jade statues were found, they also found six pieces of jade gui, on which were engraved with handwriting similar to the Shang Yin oracle bone inscription.
After establishing the castle here, Xie Jin was instructed to lead people to explore the surrounding area, and developed close ties with a tribe called "Maya", and he found that the priests of the Mayan tribe would use acupuncture to heal diseases, and near this Mayan tribe, there was also a wide range of bamboo that can only be found in the Fujian region of Guangdong, China, and has not heard of this plant in other parts of the world.
They gradually became familiar with the local natives, and after about a year, Xie Jin understood their language a little, and the tribal chief here told him that the bamboo was a kind of traumatic medicine passed down from their ancestors, King Hou Xi, a long, long time ago.
He also said that in the legends of their ancestors, they came from the Kingdom of Heaven, and their ancestors came to this place by taking bamboo boats along the pontoon bridge of Heaven from the Kingdom of Heaven and have stayed here ever since.
Xie Jin immediately asked the Mayan to take him to meet the old priest of the tribe, who received him kindly and told him the story of the ancient legend of King Houxi.
The old priest told him that among their people, from generation to generation, two thousand five or six hundred years ago, their ancestors, a total of twenty-five tribes, came here in bamboo boats along a stretch of the sea of islands, and established several kingdoms each. The most powerful of them was their king: King Hou Xi.
Brave and powerful, he also had a brutal temperament, and he tortured the men who were recruited into the palace to serve him, and branded his subjects who offended him. One year, a small kingdom called the Kingdom of the Rising Kingdom was destroyed by a severe earthquake, and the people of the Kingdom of the Rising Kingdom defected to King Hou Xi, who did not help them, but turned them into his own slaves.
The refugees were very sad, and when a doctor of the Hou Xi tribe who lived in the mountains heard about it, he rushed to the palace and sang to the king of Hou Xi: "The twenty-five tribes are brothers, follow Hou Xi across the pontoon island of the sky, and the hardships and dangers on the way cannot be forgotten, distribute wheat and millet to the villagers, brothers do not humiliate brothers, and the kingdom of heaven will be built again for winter and spring......
When the people of Hou Xi heard this, they wept loudly, and when he heard this song, he was so grief-stricken that he pleaded with his subjects with tears, freed the slaves, and helped them rebuild his kingdom with his belongings. ....
The old priest also sang the ancient song at the invitation of Xie Jin, the pronunciation of the ancient language, even few people in their own tribe remembered, Xie Jin naturally did not understand it even more, but he noticed that in that desolate and ancient ballad, every lyric was one word and one sound, and the languages of other ethnic groups that Xie Jin knew rarely had this characteristic.
"King Hou Xi, King Hou Xi, the twenty-five clans are brothers, follow Hou Xi across the sky to the pontoon island......"
Xie Jin, who is erudite and knowledgeable, suddenly remembered an ancient secret:
In the past, King Wu was defeated, and the king of Zhou was sending a general to fight against Dongyi, and the country was empty, and King Wu of Zhou took the opportunity to raise troops and conquer in a battle, and the king of Zhou died and the Shang Dynasty died. Later, the Shang Dynasty general Hou Xi and more than 100,000 troops of the Lin Fang, Renfang, Hu Fang and other tribes loyal to the Shang Dynasty suddenly disappeared, which became a strange case for the ages.
Could it be γ»γ»γ»γ»γ»γ»
Chinese salutations, hairstyles, oracle bone inscriptions, jade gui, sculptures from the Yin Shang era, traditional Chinese medicine remedies for acupuncture and bamboo healing, and the Hou Xi King they keep talking about, and what kind of heavenly pontoon bridge γ»γ»γ»γ»γ»γ», when they come all the way and cross the strait, is there a small island not far away?
Could it be that γ»γ»γ»γ»γ»γ» this Hou Xi King is Yu Hou Xi? These natives are the descendants of the missing Yin Shang soldiers?
Xie Jin immediately told Xia Xun about this speculation, and Xia Xun didn't care if this evidence was accurate, for him, this evidence was conducive to better integration with the locals, and that was enough, so Xia Xun told these local natives that they came from Heaven through the Heavenly Pontoon Bridge.
Not only did he tell the Maya and other Indian tribes, but he also told him that the tens of thousands of people he had brought with him were of the same ancestry, which was conducive to their friendly relationship.
Upon hearing the news that these far-away visitors, who were more powerful and more civilized than them, had come from the land of their ancestors, the local indigenous tribes were very happy and kind, and they immediately accepted these relatives from their distant homeland, and even showed a kind of reverence for them.
They have great respect for their ancestors, and these visitors come from the kingdom of their ancestors, psychologically, they feel that these visitors are superior to them in terms of seniority, and they are even more like a family in terms of blood, and they affectionately call these people from the "kingdom of heaven" as their ancestors.
Since then, Xia Xun and his men have settled here, and by teaching the locals more advanced production methods, they have won the respect and trust of many Indian tribes in the surrounding area.
By the time they burned fire with mud under the amazed gaze of the local natives, turned into hard "stones", and built houses and tall castles, they were already recognized by all the surrounding tribes as kings.
The new castle is called Hawaii. This Hawaii is not the island in the eastern part of the Americas, the name of the castle was taken by Xia Xun, others thought that this castle meant that he wanted to Weizhen Siyi, but they didn't know that this was just Xia Xun's bad taste.
Xia Xun found that in this land, there are many plants that have never been seen anywhere else, and there are more edible plant species here than all the other places in the world combined.
Abundant resources, respectable status, and the fact that many soldiers who did not yet have wives were able to marry a healthy, sexy, lively and lovely Indian girl here, their hearts finally stayed here.
Xia Xun's ships deliberately brought talents from all walks of life, including scribes, doctors, stonemasons, blacksmiths, tailors, sailors, and farmers, who quarried, smelted iron, and made gunpowder here......
More and more local natives became aware of their existence, and they sent people to learn from their advanced civilization, and the prestige of these ancestors grew, and they seemed to be the masters of this new world.

It's spring again.
Xia Xun stood on the beach with his second son Yang Huaizhi in his arms.
Yang Huaizhi asked in a milky voice: "Daddy, why is the earth round?" β
Xia Xun smiled: "Probably, God has the heart to let those who are lost or lost be able to find their starting point again." β
"Then let's swim over here and go back to our hometown?"
Xia Xun was amused by his son's childish words: "Yes, swimming from here is our hometown." When the baby grows up, build a big boat, get on the boat and sit when you are tired, and keep moving forward, at sunset, it is our hometown. β
"Oh......"
Yang Huaizhi thought about it with his fingers in his hand, turned around and pointed in another direction, and said: "Sister Yuerong said that when I was in my hometown, I thought that the sun rose from the sea here, but when we arrived here, the sun was still in the sea in the distance. If we go that way, will we find the sun? β
Yuerong is the youngest daughter of Ximen Qing and Nan Feifei, and she usually plays with several children of the Yang family.
Xia Xun said: "No, if you want to find the sun, unless you build a flying ship." But if we go that way, we're going to a place called Europe, and Daddy used to go there, and it's much closer to that place than when you're older, and when you're older, you can go there and play. β
"Is it fun there?"
"Of course it's fun, you can see not only a lot of blonde and blue-eyed Westerners there, but also Easterners like us. Son, that's a route opened up by your father, and when you meet them, you don't need to bother learning their language, because what we say must be their lingua franca. β
"Haha, when you talk about it, Dad is happy, son, do you know what Dad is happy about?"
Xia Xun asked happily Many of his statements were often laughed at by his wives as "gibberish", and only his sons and daughters believed what their father said. Although he is now the recognized tribal chief of all tribes near and far, it is difficult to find a soulmate. These words can only be talked about with this unworldly son.
"I don't know, what is Daddy happy about?"
Xia Xun patted his slippery buttocks and said with a smile: "Dad is happy that the children and grandchildren of our Han people no longer need to learn the English of that cheating father, just translation, isn't it just translation?" One Siyi Pavilion is not enough, ten is enough! Can everyone be used as a translator? Abandon the book! His grandmother's ......"
Yang Huaizhi didn't know why, and smiled and learned from his father: "his grandma!" β
Xia Xun laughed: "Yes! his grandma's. Well? That's not right! Dad can say, you can't say that, learn to swear again, and see if your mother hears it and won't beat you. Wellγ»γ»γ»γ»γ»γ», in the future, let's call foreign devils to learn Chinese with us, and he can't pass the fourth level, and he wants to get a graduation certificate~~~ Ah! β
Yang Huaizhi waved his small fist and said, "There is no door~~~!" β
Xia Xun said with great interest: "Even if he studies the history of his own country and doesn't know Chinese, he won't be given a title!" Ask their children to spend most of their academic energy on learning Chinese, hahaha, it's cool to think about! β
Yang Huaizhi danced in Xia Xun's arms, and also learned from his father's shout: "Cool! β
β»β»β»β»β»β»β»β»β»β»β»β»β»β»β»β»β»β»β»β»β»β»β»β»β»
Xu Hu took a few people and found Xia Xun who was on the beach. Seeing him chatting with his son, he couldn't help but smile and asked, "Wen Xuan, why are you so happy to talk about?" β
Xia Xun turned his head and saw that it was him, so he put down his son, patted his little buttocks and said, "Go, go and play with my brother."
Yang Huaizhi spread his legs and ran towards his brother, and on the shallows not far away, several half-grown children of the Yang family were playing with a few Indian children to catch fish, and a castle with a lot of sand piled up on the shore.
In a small bay, the Indians abandoned their canoes, and with the help of their Heavenly Ancestors, they learned to build sailboats, and several small sailboats of their own handicraft were making their first attempt at sea.
"Brother Xu is back."
"Well, what Tianyang is taking care of in the iron mine, I'll come back, I'll just leave for a month, I see that not only the medical hall has been built in the city, but even the academy is going to be built."
"yes, kids don't have basic life skills. Here, literacy and reading are the only things that priests do, and we can't do that. Although it is said that the civilization of the Yin Shang era is not as good as it is now, if it weren't for the fact that there were not many educated people in the army when they crossed to the east, they only cared about food and clothing after arriving here, and they still didn't recognise it, and they wouldn't be even more backward than their ancestors. As a lesson from the past, our descendants must be more civilized and advanced, and cannot degenerate into savages. β
"Well, you're still far-sighted!"
Xu Hu and Xia Xun walked side by side, recounting the changes in the past year or so, and said with emotion: "We have been here for a year, and wherever our reputation goes, all the tribes have been attached to the wind, don't you think that γ»γ»γ»γ»γ»γ» have always regarded our castle as a tribe, right?" β
Xia Xun glanced at him and smiled, "Oh, what do you think?" β
Xu Hu said slowly: "Don't you think...... Can we build a country of our own here? β
Xia Xun took his hands and walked slowly along the beach, thinking about it without speaking.
Xu Hu chased after him and said, "In your words, the people here, because the land here is too vast and so rich, the people here can dig a pit in the grass and plant seeds without worrying about food, so they have not developed much." They are so backward that we don't need to use a single soldier or a shot to get them to their knees.
Moreover, they worship and believe in us, our ancestors, and as long as we are sure of the establishment of a country, they will surely follow us. It's a good thing for them to have them under their rule, you don't want them to live like savages all the time, do you? β
Xia Xun smiled, leaned over and grabbed a handful of golden sand, grabbed it, slowly twisted it, let the yellow sand flow down like an hourglass, and said slowly: "This question, in fact, I have also thought about it, and I have even thought about the name of our newly established country. β
"Oh?"
Xu Hu said happily: "It turns out that you also have this plan, what name do you plan to give our country?" β
Xia Xun patted the sand on his hands, stood still facing the sea with his hands behind his back, and said, "Xia Dynasty! Our country is called Great Xia! What do you think? β
Xu Hu's eyes swelled with a blazing light: "Good name!" Xia Shangzhouγ»γ»γ»γ»γ»γ»γ» we are going to open up a new China here! At the same time, you also changed your surname Xia, hehe, this is both the name of the country and the surname of the country, and as soon as this Great Xia is established, you will be the first emperor of this Great Xia! The first emperor of this overseas world! β
Xia Xun smiled but did not speak.
He didn't want to be emperor, he wanted to establish a federal state with three separate powers, and the head of state would be elected every few years. For all the people, this is far more appropriate than the imperial system.
For his children and grandchildren, if their ancestors had given them such a high starting point, they would still have nothing to accomplish, and they would have eaten as many bowls as they could.
No matter how good education is, it cannot guarantee that future generations will be virtuous, and absolute power, once it encounters a scarcity monarch, will bring irreparable consequences to the country, and then it will bring disaster to his children and grandchildren.
His polity was conceived on the other side of the sea, at least in this era, impossible, without that foundation. This is not the case here, where there are tribes, and the chiefs are not hereditary. Among the tens of thousands of them, the largest number is the soldiers and family members of the original Shuangyu Guard, and whether it is the big leader of Shuangyu Island or the commander of Shuangyu Guard, it is also not hereditary.
Starting from scratch does not need to break the old framework, but is the easiest to build. However, he didn't know much about this before, and superficial understanding could not help him much when he created some specific systems, and he still had many ideas that needed to be improved.
At the same time, the initiative of founding the country has already begun in the castle, and many people, especially his father-in-law, Peng Laozhuang, are extremely keen to praise him as the emperor, and he also needs to communicate with these people.
Of course, at this time, Xia Xun didn't know that in the southernmost part of this continent, Ren Juying, who had no hope of returning to China, had already been proclaimed emperor, and the country was named Lantau Island, and he was frantically annexing tribes one by one, and he was taking another political path completely different from Xia Xun.
And the intersection between them is a long time later.
Xu Hu saw Xia Xun smiling and silent, sighed slightly, slowly took two steps back, and his hand was already on the hilt of the knife.
Xia Xun was still smiling when he looked at the sea, but the smile gradually became bitter: "Isn't it good for us to be like this?" Must kill each other? Power, it really can be crazy! β
Xu Hu was about to draw his knife, but he was shocked when he heard the words, and said in a lost voice: "You γ»γ»γ»γ»γ»γ» you know that I want to... γ»γ»γ»
Xia Xun didn't answer him, but just asked gloomily: "Why can we only share weal and hardship, but not prosperity?" β
"You're wrong!"
Xu Hu settled down and said in a deep voice: "I, Xu Hu, am not a narrow-minded person, I can share weal and woe, and I can also share prosperity!" But you can't stand in my way when I can have greater wealth! β
Xia Xun's voice was a little ethereal under the lapping of the waves, he seemed to be asking himself, and he seemed to be asking Xu Hu: "I, standing in your way?" β
Xu Hu sneered: "Knowingly ask!" Do you think you are still the prince of the Ming Dynasty? Joke! Who has the most power in this castle? It's you! Who has the most power? It's me! Among the tens of thousands of people, the vast majority of my Shuangyu people are from Shuangyu, why can you be the emperor as a matter of course, not me? Why should your children be a blessing for generations to come, and not me? β
Xia Xun said softly: "If I say...... I never wanted to be an emperor, can you believe it? β
Xu Hu was stunned for a moment, and then laughed loudly: "Hahaha, of course I don't believe it, if you don't be the emperor, then who will?" Are you willing to give it to me? Hahahaγ»γ»γ»γ»γ»γ»"
Xia Xun shook his head and said, "It's not me, it's not you, I want to γ»γ»γ»γ»γ»γ» this country doesn't want an emperor!" β
Xu Hu was stunned for a while, and exclaimed, "Are you crazy? How can a country do without an emperor? If there is no emperor, then it is still called a country? I want to be the emperor, you don't want the emperor! Whether you are the emperor yourself or you don't want anyone to be the emperor, you can't get along with me!
Why should all the nations bow to the Ming Dynasty? Because whoever has the biggest fist is the boss! Here, I'm the boss, not you! Xia Xun, it's time for you to wake up! β
Xia Xun said lightly: "I think it's time for you to wake up!" Xu Hu, don't be insistent! β
Xu Hu took a step back vigilantly, and quickly glanced around, the children were still playing on the beach, and in the bay on the other side, several natives were laughing at how easily their boat was driving in the water, and on the shore was a mangrove forest, a stone's throw away, and there were only a few of his henchmen around.
Xu Hu's courage grew up again, and he sneered: "You scare me? Hahaha, Xia Xun, I know your eloquence, I don't know how many people have died on your mouth, but I, Xu Hu, are not them! The entire Shuangyu soldiers are mine, what do you have? Except for the dead old man of the Peng family and his sons and nephews, apart from the Ximen Qing who specializes in drilling women's tents, and your 1,800 people who are hidden dragons, what else do you have? β
Xia Xun said slowly: "I still have ...... Lilong! β
Xu Hu didn't hear clearly, took a step forward, and asked, "What did you say?" β
Almost at the moment when he stepped forward, two gunshots rang out, and a big hole exploded in Xu Hu's back heart and waist, and blood quickly stained his robe.
Xu Hu stumbled forward, turned his head back in disbelief, a total of five guards, all brought by him. Two of the muzzles were smoking, while the other three, one of whom had retreated behind the other two, a knife in one hand and a pistol pressed tightly against their waists.
Xia Xun's voice came to his ears: "Lilong! I still have a dragon! In the past, I had a flying dragon in my left hand and a hidden dragon in my right hand, and after the flying dragon was handed over, my free hand grabbed another dragon! β
"Of the five henchmen, three of them are your people...... damn me! I'm really damned! I didn't die unjustly! β
Xu Hu staggered and laughed miserably: "I didn't expect it, I didn't expect that I would kill Lei Xiaoxi with this method back then, and today, I will follow in his footsteps!" Xia Xun! You've had the heart to deal with me, haven't you? β
Xia Xun said faintly: "Whether you believe it or not, I'm just prepared." If you don't want to kill me, I promise they'll still be your henchmen and will never become dragons! β
Xu Hu hissed: "I don't believe it γ»γ»γ»γ»γ»γ»!" I don't believe it! You γ»γ»γ»γ»γ»γ» want to be an emperor too! I...... Hate! β
With a "poof", Xu Hu planted heavily on the beach, the waves hit his cheeks, and his eyes were straight and dead.
Xia Xun never looked back, and fell together, and the never-ending tide slapped against the upper of his boots. Xia Xun said quietly: "Everyone who is ignorant of the world wants to be Huang Rong, escape from Peach Blossom Island, and experience all kinds of things in the world; Everyone who has experienced wind and frost wants to be an Eastern Evil, facing the sea, and the spring flowers are blooming! Xu Hu, what I want, you will never understand! β
Many years later, when the historians of the Great Xia Kingdom were studying the history of their founding father and first president, Xia Xun, one of the topics that made them sad was: "Who is Huang Rong?" Who is the East Evil? β
