Chapter 604, it's not just gold

As he got farther and farther away from Golden Bay, he encountered fewer and fewer people along the way, and gradually only the exploration team led by Zheng Hong kept walking on the wilderness.

"What a beautiful place~"

Walking and walking, he came to the top of a mountain, Zheng Hong took out his binoculars and raised his eyes to look around.

Blue sky and white clouds, green mountains and green waters, the eagles soaring in the sky from time to time come to the sound of bursts of chirping; the carefree foraging of deer in the vast wilderness; Huge brown bears with cubs roost leisurely.

Looking up, it's a clean and virgin paradise.

Everything here is beautiful, there are no people, everything is breathtaking, it is amazing.

In Daming, there are not many such beautiful places.

"Maybe it's good to settle here in the future."

Suddenly, such an idea popped up in Zheng Hong's mind.

This made Zheng Hong's whole person can't help but feel a spirit, why did he suddenly have such an idea?

Maybe it's the vast, fertile wilderness, or maybe it's the uninhabited, paradise-like environment, or the fanatical gold.......

Or maybe it's because there is no way to return to Daming on his ship, and he will have to stay here for the next few years, and he will continue to persuade himself in his heart to try to fall in love with this vast land.

Zheng Hong shook his head slightly, and then took advantage of everyone's rest time, he also took out a pen and paper, and began to record everything in front of him on it.

It's a beautiful land, and it's full of gold, as the propaganda says, and it's fascinating gold.

But when you actually come here, you will find that there is more than just gold, it has many, many more precious things than gold.

This vast and fertile land, it is ownerless, and you can have as much as you can cultivate.

There are huge herds of deer in unimaginable numbers, and here you can easily hunt enough meat in the wilderness.

From here to the west, there is a very, very vast land, from some Yin Shang tribes, all the way to the west, after turning over this tall mountain range, there is an incomparably wide plain.

Everything here is as beautiful and charming as a paradise, and you can't help but want to live here forever.

"Let's go, let's go, keep looking for gold~"

After resting for a while, Zheng Hong also continued to take his team members to think about walking in the distance.

"What do you think of this Golden Continent?"

The days of looking for gold are always so boring, and Zheng Hong, the boss, can't help but chat with his men.

"It's big, it's beautiful, it's a lot of land~"

A man named Cao Yi replied that he was Zheng Hong's fellow countryman, an eighteen-year-old descendant.

"There's a lot of gold, and a lot of people have found it."

Zheng Dashan, who was in the Zheng Hong clan, also smiled and replied.

"Everything is good, it's just too far away from Daming."

Someone also followed along.

Hearing this person's words, Zheng Hong smiled and said, "What do you think of turning this place into Daming?" ”

"That's the most perfect~"

"But how is this possible, this is the Golden Continent, thousands of miles away from Daming."

Cao Yi smiled and replied.

"How could it be?"

"As long as there are our Ming people, it is the Ming Dynasty."

"In the future, there will be more and more people here, and this place will slowly become a Ming Dynasty."

Zheng Hong said with great certainty.

"Then I won't go back, I'll write to my family when I go back, take my wife and children, and settle here in the future."

Cao Yi couldn't help but say immediately.

"Why would you want to settle here?"

Zheng Hong asked curiously.

"How good it is here, there is food to eat, there is land to eat, there are many things, as long as you are willing to work, life will definitely be better."

"It's not good at home, I don't have an acre of land at home, and I grow wheat for the landlord's family every year, but I can't eat a full meal all year round."

"If the whole family comes here and cultivates the land near Golden Bay, they can have hundreds or even thousands of acres of land at will."

"If you plant wheat, the whole family will not be able to eat it."

Cao Yi thought about it and replied.

In fact, it's not just Cao Yi who thinks so, most of the people who came to the Golden Continent this time, except for those rich people such as bosses, shopkeepers, and captains, are actually poor.

Because of poverty, so he came out to wander, otherwise who would want to risk life and death to come to this golden continent?

Isn't everyone in it for the money?

A trip to the Golden Continent, not to mention anything else, this moon ring alone is very impressive, not to mention that if they dig up gold, they will also have a reward.

Everyone comes here for the dream of gold and fortune.

"Listen to what you say, I also think this Golden Continent is quite good."

Zheng Dashan thought about it and nodded again and again.

"Haha, if your wife, children, and parents are here, it's actually pretty good here."

"yes, it's pretty good~"

"I heard that the imperial court issued a decree saying that as long as you immigrate to the Golden Continent, you can be rewarded with a thousand acres of land, and this family has emigrated and began to have thousands of acres of land."

"When the time comes, dozens of acres of land will be reclaimed, and the rest can be used to raise cattle, sheep and horses~"

Cao Yi and Zheng Dashan started, and others also followed suit. Fun read

I have been here for some time in the Golden Continent, and everyone is homesick, but after a careful comparison, I suddenly feel that this Golden Continent is actually very good.

"It's a pity that I didn't bring a few cows and horses here~"

Speaking of cattle, sheep and horses, Zheng Hong couldn't help but light up his eyes slightly, and said with a slight sigh.

If there were a few horses, then I wouldn't have to walk on my feet now.

The Tianjin Ocean Trade Company brought a lot of cattle, sheep and horses here, so the people of the Tianjin Ocean Trade Company explored very quickly and often found gold mines.

As you walk, you chat, and you look for gold.

"Look at it~"

"A lot of cows~"

"What a big herd~"

Suddenly, a team member couldn't help but shout excitedly, which immediately attracted everyone's attention.

Everyone looked in the direction he pointed, and saw that in a valley, hundreds of cows gathered by the river to drink water, and roosted very leisurely.

"What's so bullish?"

"The cattle of the Yin Shang tribe?"

Seeing such a huge herd, Zheng Hong couldn't help but widen his eyes suddenly.

In the Ming Dynasty, the status of the ox was extremely high, and it was a symbol of wealth, as well as a symbol of important labor.

Being able to own a cow is the dream of countless farmers.

In front of me, there was a herd of hundreds of cows.

"I didn't find anyone from the Yin Shang tribe, could it be that these are all bison?"

Zheng Hong kept searching with a telescope, but he couldn't find the figure of Yin Shang's descendants, and the whole person couldn't help but speculate boldly.

"There's beef to eat~"

Someone suddenly couldn't help but scream excitedly.

Beef, since ancient times, has been a high-quality meat, and it is not something that can be eaten casually.

"Got rich~Got rich~"

"How many cows~"

Others rushed towards the valley excitedly.

These team members from the bottom have too deep, too deep feelings for cattle.

On the Ming side, a cow is very expensive, more expensive than human life, this is not a lie.

Three taels of silver are enough to marry a daughter-in-law, but if you buy a cow, it will cost several taels of silver.

In the Ming Dynasty, the cattle are extremely precious, but in this vast golden continent, there is such a large-scale number, and it is still wild.

"Haha, these bison~"

Zheng Hong couldn't help laughing at once, such a huge herd.

And these cows are very large, not to mention, just for the flesh, it is also very good.

However, for the Ming people, cattle are not used for eating, it is used for cultivating land.

"If these bison could be tamed and used to cultivate the land, what kind of land would it be?"

Zheng Hong's mind couldn't help but think about it.

There are many bison here, and the land here is ownerless, and the two together will be endless fields and endless food.

Zheng Hong couldn't help but rush down the valley with his teammates, and soon came to the river.

These bison are not afraid of people, and they are also looking at Zheng Hong and the others curiously.

"Tsk, these cows are good cows~"

"This head, it's really big, it must be very powerful~"

"And this thick hair, don't worry about winter~"

Zheng Hong carefully observed these bison, and nodded while looking at them, this cow is good, large in size, and powerful, it is the most suitable for plowing the land.

"It's all good cows~"

Cao Yi also couldn't help but shout excitedly.

Born in the countryside, he has longed to have a cow since he was a child, because there are no cattle for the landlord in the family, and every time he ploughs the land, he can only rely on people, which is very tiring.

Looking at these bison in front of him, his eyes lit up.

"Gold~Gold~"

At this time, someone couldn't help but shout excitedly.

Hearing the sound of gold, Zheng Hong immediately became excited and hurriedly looked over.

I saw a fellow with a stone in his hand, and this stone could be clearly seen, and there was a golden light in it.

"It's really gold!"

Zheng Hong couldn't help but run over excitedly.

I took the stone and looked at it carefully, and it was indeed gold, a piece of dog's head gold mixed in the stone.

"Haha~"

"Finally found gold~Finally found gold~"

Zheng Hong couldn't help but shout excitedly, all his investment finally paid off.

"Bison, if it can be domesticated into a domestic cattle, no matter how many cattle, it will be much easier to cultivate the land in the future."

As for Cao Yi, at this moment, all his attention was on this huge herd of bison, and his mind was thinking about how to domesticate these bison.
