On the third day after mar Chinese rying Xie Tingting, He Xiaojun set off for Hong Kong, preparing to take a boat from Hong Kong to Jinshan. He wants to rush to Jinshan as soon as possible and go through the formalities Xie Tingting, the official wife, went abroad.

Accompanying He Xiaojun was, of course, the three daughters who went to the provincial capital with him that day to apply for exit visas, Xie Huanhuan, Alan and Ah Lian.

In the three days after the marriage, He Xiaojun and his acquaintances in Haishan said goodbye one by one, and made some personnel arrangements.

Of course, Mayor Xie's foreign family goes without saying, He Xiaojun promised to do his best to get Xie Tingting and her grandparents out as quickly as possible. At the same time, he instructed Mayor Xie to pay attention to his own safety and ensure that he lives to be reunited with his daughter and parents after peace.

For Platoon Commander Liu, the eldest brother, He Xiaojun also asked him to take care, and said that after he was discharged from the army, he and his family would go to Jinshan to live with him.

For Da Niu, a supporter, He Xiaojun seems to owe him a little. Because, every time he saw him, he would ask himself, what should he do with his wife and children, Amei, and the enemies of the villagers of Chen Village? When will it be reported? How to report?

He Xiaojun, who was helpless, had to find a time to have a detailed conversation with Da Niu, explained in detail the difficulty of revenge, and solemnly promised him that when President Zeng and they investigated the information of the lieutenant general, if the culprit could be lucky to save his life in this war, he would definitely use all means to assassinate him in Japan.

Obviously, Da Niu was not satisfied with He Xiaojun's explanation.

Moreover, Da Niu, a super fan who usually obeys He Xiaojun's words, strongly opposed He Xiaojun's kindness for the first time that day, that is, against He Xiaojun's kindness to ask him to go abroad. He said that he wanted to stay here to accompany his wife Aunt Hong, and he wanted to stay to avenge his wife and children and the villagers of Chen Village, so he did not go abroad.

obviously felt that Da Niu, his closest friend after coming to another world, had a much colder attitude towards him, and faintly disdainful, He Xiaojun was quite helpless. After all, he's just a civilian, and there's a lot he can't do about it if he wants to. Moreover, he did not deny that he was afraid of death, because he had to save himself in order to provide for several women, the elderly and children.

He Xiaojun, who was helpless, had no choice but to ask Mayor Xie, Platoon Leader Liu, and Director Hu to help take care of his temperamental eldest brother.

The two "golden hairpins" of Chunmei and Xia He, the top brands of Zuixiang Building, finally decided to follow He Xiaojun's advice and come to live in the canyon from the good queen.

He Xiaojun made arrangements for Chunmei and Xia He, and persuaded the head of Chen Village to let them live with them first with the four girls who were performing arts.

Although the traditional etiquette made the villagers of Chen Village look down on the people in the brothel, since it was He Xiaojun, a capable person who gave so much help to the village, and there were a few sisters he recognized, the villagers of Chen Village still accepted Chunmei and them.

As for He Xiaojun's four recognized entertainers, He Xiaojun is also ready to go abroad, and when they are stable, they will go out if they have the conditions and let them live with him.

In the end, He Xiaojun also successfully persuaded the "ghost guy" missionary Schmidt to come to the new settlement of the canyon.

After listening to He Xiaojun's words, the settlement on the other side of the canyon will exist for a long time, and the refugees will gather more and more, and the "ghost guys" agreed to settle here, considering that the densely populated place is a good place for missionaries. However, since there were still residents in the county, and their church was also in the city, the "ghost guys" left a nun and nurse to guard the church in the city.

After arranging everything, He Xiaojun set off for Hong Kong and prepared to take a boat from Hong Kong to Jinshan.

Although there is no authoritative statistics on the number of people abroad at that time, it can also be seen from another statistic at that time that there were many wealthy overseas Chinese in Haishan.

This statistic is the statistics of remittances. Statistics say: Generally speaking, Haishan's annual remittance income accounts for about half of Guangdong Province's.

From this figure, it has objectively reflected the wealth and wealth of overseas Chinese in Haishan, and also shows the influence of overseas Chinese in Haishan in the province and even in China.

Because there are more overseas Chinese, of course, there are more passengers from Haishan to and from abroad, and Hong Kong, as an important international port at that time, Haishan is close to Hong Kong, so there are many people and goods from Haishan to Hong Kong through Hong Kong, so the direct route from Haishan to Hong Kong came into being.

In addition to steamers carrying goods, there was also a small steamer called an electric boat at that time, which was specially used to transport passengers between the two places.

When Jiangkou City and the provincial capital had not yet fallen, and the Haishan train was still running, because the city and the provincial capital had large steamships going to Hong Kong, and the provincial capital even had large steamers going directly to the sea, except for some people who coveted convenience or carried a large number of goods, ordinary people preferred to go to the city to take a big steamer to Hong Kong or to the provincial capital to go directly to the sea. After all, the big ship is not only comfortable to sit on, but also much safer.

At this time, the city and the provincial capital had fallen, and the way to these two places was not safe, and people who wanted to leave Hong Kong or go abroad from the vicinity of the seamount and the seamount ran to the side of the seamount to take a boat out.

The place where the boat goes out of Hong Kong from Haishan is called Haikou Port, which is located in the south of Ningcheng, the county seat, more than 20 kilometers away from Ningcheng and more than 10 kilometers away from Chen Village.

Haikou Port is actually just a small market, at the beginning, by the nearby residents of several surnames jointly organized to build, because the residents of the preparation, there are ten surnames, so, also called "ten households".

Due to the special geographical location of "Shihu Wei", it is located at the confluence of the Datong River and the Lianzhou River that spans half of the seamount, and there are many ships that transit or stay here, the local people are accustomed to call the river the sea, call the wharf as the port, so it is renamed "Haikou Port".

Because the water transportation is very convenient, and the land transportation is also convenient, there are more and more people and goods transiting here. After years of operation, Haikou Port has gradually become a hub and trade market for waterway transportation in Haishan.

Before the outbreak of the Anti-Japanese War, with the economic prosperity of Haishan, Haikou Port, a spontaneous waterway transit, came to Haikou Port to pick up goods due to the abundant goods and complete variety. Let this place be bustling every day, and the goods are like a rotation.

Moreover, with the increase of overseas Chinese and businessmen from all over the world, various passenger routes have also emerged. There are Hong Kong Hengxing Ferry, Jiangchangdu to and from Haikou Port to Hong Kong, Macao, and Dacheng Provincial Ferry two ships to and from the provincial capital to Haikou Port.

The prosperity of people and goods has made Haikou Port one of the most prosperous polders in Haishan.

After the outbreak of the Anti-Japanese War, due to the wolf smoke everywhere and the rapid economic decline in various places, Haikou Port also began to turn deserted. First, the number of ships going to and from the provincial capital was suspended, followed by a sharp decrease in the number of cargo ships in various places, less than one or two percent on weekdays, and finally, due to the war, the number of overseas Chinese returning to their hometowns decreased sharply, and the number of ships traveling to and from Hong Kong and Macao was also reduced to one, and it was still a steamboat with a very small carrying capacity.

He Xiaojun, who had no choice, could only take the second lady and the Alan sisters and the three of them to prepare to go to Hong Kong from Haikou Port.

The two who sent He Xiaojun and them to take the boat were Mayor Xie and Platoon Leader Liu, who had already learned to drive from He Xiaojun, and they were sent by Platoon Commander Liu in Mayor Xie's car.

In He Xiaojun's previous life, because of the diversion of the main highway and the transformation of the flood control and drainage of the river section, Haikou Port was no longer a water and land transportation artery like at this time, so he only passed by here twice because he was greedy for convenience, and he was not deeply impressed by this place that was already cold at that time.

Today, after seeing Haikou Port at this time, He Xiaojun couldn't help but be dumbfounded, because the Haikou Port in front of him had no resemblance to the cold impression in his mind.

At this time, Haikou Port, He Xiaojun estimates that if calculated by area density, it may be the place with the most shops per square kilometer in the world.

Isn't it that, in this projectile place, which should be less than one square kilometer, there are not only many western-style buildings in the whole port, but also more than 100 shops, gold shops, silver shops, grocery stores, foreign goods stores, medicinal herb shops, tea houses, hotels, cedar shops, fruit shops, and other contemporary hydrocarbon trading houses. He Xiaojun clicked, and there were as many as six silver horns in a small market alone, which showed the prosperity of this place.

The area around Haibang Street in Haikou Port is the wharf area, but because it is a spontaneous waterway transfer station, there is no decent wharf infrastructure here, whether it is a ship carrying goods, or an electric ship (small steamer) in the provincial port, after the ship docks, a wider and stronger wooden board is connected to the shore, passengers come from the plank, and the freight workers pick (or carry) the goods and also walk the plank ashore.

After the ship at anchor has disembarked the passengers or cargo, it will sail away again when the new passengers are on board or the new cargo is loaded onto the ship.

Although there are not many ships arriving because of the war at this time, from the thriving configuration of this small ruin, He Xiaojun can still imagine the busy scene of merchants gathering and flowing endlessly.

After He Xiaojun arrived, the boat to Hong Kong
