Gao Junshan came to Hong Kong for no other purpose, just to see if the prosperous scene of Hong Kong in the future will appear during this time period?

However, it did not appear.

Because Huaxia is so powerful, Huaxia has all the big ports in Asia, such as Mumbai, Yangon, Manchester City, Singapore, Batavia, and a small Hong Kong can only be eclipsed.

Gao Junshan did not see Hong Kong, which is full of lights, this does not mean that Hong Kong will no longer develop, as a seaport city, there is still room for development.

The fleet did not stop too long in Hong Kong, and turned to the next destination port - the chicken coop.

The chicken coop is the later Keelung, Taiwan, which was forcibly occupied by the Dutch East India Company a few years ago, and later Zheng Chenggong led the fleet to wipe out the Dutch, and it became a port on the island of Taiwan in China.

At this time, Taiwan was still a wilderness that had not been heavily developed, and Chinese immigrants mainly settled in some coastal cities, and there was a coal mine in the chicken coop, which was mined when the Dutch were here.

The purpose of the fleet coming to the chicken coop is to replenish fuel and provisions, and the chicken coop pier is also a large wharf that can berth 10,000 tons of ships.

After two days at the chicken coop, on June 24, the fleet set off for Shanghai.

After years of construction, Shanghai is now a world metropolis. Shanghai Port is located at the front edge of the Yangtze River Delta, choking the mouth of the Yangtze River, at the intersection of the east-west transportation channel of the Yangtze River and the north-south transportation channel of the sea, and is the main hub port of the coastal area of China.

Shanghai Port is composed of five port areas: the upper reaches of the Huangpu River, the middle reaches of the Huangpu River, the lower reaches of the Huangpu River, the Luojing Port of Baoshan and the Waigaoqiao Port, with 162 berths of various types, including 26 berths of more than 10,000 tons.

On the 27th, the battleship "Jinling No. 1" docked at the 18th pier in the port area of the middle reaches of the Huangpu River.

More than 20 civil and military officials were waiting on the wharf: Liu Qingyun, mayor of Shanghai, Xu Wenhui, director of the Shanghai Navy Coordination Department, Ke Yunhai, assistant to the mayor, and Xu Daju, director of the Shanghai Municipal Construction Bureau.

At this time, there was no need for garrisons in Shanghai, so the highest-level military unit was the Military Coordination Office, which had no soldiers under it, and was only responsible for the deployment and transportation of military materials, as well as the training of local militias.

Mayor Liu Qingyun is a disciple of Chongwen, a major in urban management, and the son of Liu Hongru.

Among the crowds welcoming Gao Junshan, there is another important person, and he is Gao Junshan's concubine - Liu Ruyi.

After Gao Junshan met with the officials who came to greet him on the dock, he got into a carriage with Liu Rushi.

The big and small officials who went ashore with Gao Junshan, those who belonged to the military, followed Xu Wenhui, director of the Military Coordination Department; Tian Ruilong, Guo Wenxiang, Duan Fuxing and other civil officials were picked up by Mayor Liu Qingyun.

Gao Junshan's carriage was followed by only one carriage, that is, the carriage that his godson Marven was riding, this time he came to Shanghai, Gao Junshan stayed in the newly built United Nations Hotel, the United Nations Hotel is located in the eastern suburbs of Shanghai The United Nations is the seat of the United Nations, this place was built by Pan Zide by the imperial decree of Gao Junshan, it is prepared for the United Nations to be established in the future.

On the carriage, Gao Junshan and Liu Ru are doing side by side, Liu Ru is also forty years old this year, due to good maintenance, still light eyebrows like autumn water, jade skin with a light breeze.

Liu Ru looked at Gao Junshan with affection, and said softly, "Your Majesty, you must be tired after such a long journey, right?" ”

Gao Junshan said with a smile: "Thank you Madame for your concern, living in a warship is the same as at home, and even more comfortable than at home, so I am not tired at all." ”

"Really?"

"You don't believe me?" Gao Junshan gently grabbed her right hand, "I came here to take you away this time, are you willing to follow me around the world?" ”

"Of course I do!" Liu Ru couldn't help but cover her mouth and chuckle, and then said in a low voice, "The concubine hasn't seen the emperor for a long time. ”

Gao Junshan said: "It's okay now, you can follow me every day." ”

Liu Ru suddenly remembered something, so he asked Gao Junshan: "Your Majesty, you once said that you would give a piece of land to your concubines, I don't know if you remember?" ”

"When?" Gao Junshan asked very seriously.

"Last time you were in Shanghai, you told your concubine and Sister Xiaowan."

Gao Junshan remembered that he did have the intention to give a piece of land to Dong Xiaowan and Liu Ru is that time, but these two goods didn't look down on the remote little place of Shanghai, so they rejected Gao Junshan in one bite.

"Didn't you say last time that you didn't like this small place in Shanghai?"

Liu Ru's face was full of crimson, and said: "We didn't expect Shanghai to develop so fast, and we have caught up with Jinling in the past few years." Your Majesty, you know, right? Now Shanghai is the largest city in the country, and many people have moved to live in Shanghai, and the housing prices here are rising rapidly! ”

Gao Junshan asked, "I didn't accept my kindness at the beginning, and now I regret it?" ”

"There's a little bit of regret." Liu Ru asked hopefully, "Is that land still empty?" ”

Gao Junshan said: "Even if it's still empty, it can't be given to you anymore, and the current land must be approved by the city hall, and no one can move it if they want to." Shanghai is developing, and it is a planned development, where to build residential areas, where to build industrial areas. Where to build a commercial district, the city hall has long been demarcated. ”

The carriage passed through a few streets, Gao Junshan saw the neat streets, wide roads, and admired the urban designer Pan Zide, who built a small fishing village-style Shanghai into such a large Shanghai in just a few years.

Liu told Gao Junshan that the roads in Shanghai are paved with cement, and some are even paved with wooden pavements, which are very clean, tidy and flat, and the streets are lined with shops, rich in goods, and it is very convenient to go out to buy things.

"I didn't expect that! I didn't expect that! Liu Ru kept sighing.

Gao Junshan said: "As my concubine, you should be happy to see the country prosperous, right, are you still worried that you have no place to live in Shanghai?" ”

Liu Ru hurriedly said: "This is not enough. ”

"Phew—"

Gao Junshan heard the coachman shout, and then the carriage slowly stopped.

Li Derong has been riding a horse to follow behind, and after the carriage stopped, he came to the carriage of Gao Junshan, got off the horse, and said to Gao Junshan: "Your Majesty, we have arrived at the place." ”

This place is the future headquarters of the United Nations, and this place was built by Pan Zide according to the vision of Gao Junshan. This place covers an area of 150 acres, divided into two large blocks of office and accommodation, the office land has about 100 acres, and the rest is the accommodation area, which was built into a hostel by Pan Zide, which is now known as the United Nations Hotel.

The carriage stopped when it entered the courtyard of the hotel directly, and the courtyard was already guarded by guards, these guards were all played by Li Hu's Cao Gang brothers, and where there was a boat, there was the Cao Gang, so the Cao Gang was everywhere.

Liu Ru has stayed in this big hotel before, she received the holy decree of Gao Junshan, only rushed from Jinling, as soon as she came to Shanghai, she opened her eyes, saw the world of flowers in front of her, she was shocked, he has been living in the palace in Jinling, he knows nothing about the rapid development outside, and does not know that the muddy land that originally belonged to her, and now his worth has doubled more than a dozen.
