When they arrived in the northern part of Liuqiu, it was ten o'clock in the morning. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 ｉｎfo

At this time, the weather was clear, and the temperature was obviously higher than in the Lin'ancheng area.

Wanshida looked at the barometer, fortunately, the pressure was high, and it was impossible for a big storm to appear.

He picked up his binoculars and looked at the shore.

In the telescope, the coastline, which used to be dark green, is now closer, and the dark green has become emerald green.

He first saw that the coast was covered with dense mangrove forests.

In that side of the world, these are plant communities to protect, and they're all gone in the north.

But now they are the masters here.

A little further afield, there are all kinds of trees, which compete to stretch their canopies towards the sky to soak up the sun...... If you climb to the top of the mast at this time, you can see more, but it's not worth it, after all, there is no hurry now.

A little farther on, there are endless mountains, also hidden by dense trees, and the undulating outlines of the mountains have become extraordinarily supple and indistinct.

This is the world of plants, not them.

There's a reason they didn't choose the northern region as their first base for development.

The rainy season here is cold and humid, and they are afraid that they will not survive the first year, but it is still feasible to use it as a source of timber.

But then they abandoned this idea, because in the southern part of Liuqiu, there are more resources available in timber alone, and they don't need it for the time being, and they only care about the coal mines here.

According to the plan, they were to continue to the southwest.

Wan Shida looked through the binoculars and said to his back: "Don't stick to me so close, I'll show you ...... in a while."

Captain Cai Erlang stepped back embarrassedly, his clothes had touched the head of Wanshida just now.

Due to its proximity to the west coast of Liuqiu, the waves are much smaller and the navigation is very stable.

Very good, the first pass was played.

Wan Shida first adjusted the focus of the telescope, and hung it on Captain Cai Erlang's neck with a belt, and he was so anxious.

This is familiar, and the second is that Wanshida likes curious people, and such people have room for improvement.

After Captain Cai Erlang saw it, he stopped taking his eyes and shouted endlessly.

"Artifact, artifact! What clairvoyance! ”

"Alright, alright, stop shouting, don't scare the whales away."

I do see whales now, and I don't need a telescope to see them at this point.

At this time, the whales wintering in the South China Sea are passing through this strait to the North Pacific Ocean for a good summer, and most of them are too thick to tolerate the heat of the South China Sea.

Wan Shida Gang stared at the two open whales not far away.

At this time, they are swimming leisurely, occasionally patting the surface of the sea with their characteristic long fins.

Wu Dapeng put down the telescope and handed it to Bao Wei, at this time, this half-sized man was circling around him, almost snatching the clairvoyance of the main house directly to see, how could he see thousands of miles away......

Wu Dapeng said: "When you watch it, you all hang the belt around your neck, and if you beat it, pull off your little cock!" ”

This is what Lord Song often says, everyone is not afraid, I haven't seen anyone he pulls down, and now it seems that he has no strength.

Wu Dapeng said to Wan Shida: "Is it too late to fight whales?" Don't run out......"

"Don't be afraid, but in April, there will be a lot of them," Wan Shida said. ”

In terms of diet, their sources of meat will be twofold: one is the countless sambar deer on the shore; The second is the innumerable number of fish in the sea...... If you can catch a whale at this time, you can solve too many problems.

At this time and space, the protein intake of the common people in the Great Song Dynasty is really insufficient.

In this way, their convoy of sea-going ships sailed smoothly on the west coast of the great island of Liuqiu.

The next day, they met the first estuary on the west coast.

The estuary is about more than 100 meters wide, it may be that it has just rained upstream, the river water is yellow, and the water speed quickly rushes into the blue sea, and the junction of yellow and blue is distinct!

Is this the original Taipei River?

At twelve o'clock in the afternoon, Wanshida measured it with a sextant and found that the latitude here was 24 degrees 50 minutes, and then compared it with the geographical latitude and longitude of the Taipei River in the world, and found that it was not, because it had already passed.

It is true that they don't need to know the longitude now, as long as they know the latitude, they can directly apply the information of that world.

For them, the river here is a new river.

Wu Dapeng said proudly: "Let's call it Xinhe!" ”

Wan Shida said no, "The geographical knowledge of people in this time and space is not good, so it is better to have the name of 'a river'------"

Wu Dapeng was taken aback and said, "Then there are countless rivers on the west coast!" ”

"How can it, only the width of the estuary is more than 100 meters, and the rest is called a stream, just call it a name!"

This makes sense, and everyone agrees.

Closer to the shore, the northeast monsoon became softer, and the currents flowed in a southwesterly direction, and the turbulence of the ships was lessened, so that there were basically no more seasickness.

They have the information of the world in their hands, the longitude and latitude of the original cities on the west coast, and the various topographical characteristics, and even the properties are also clear, but at this time, it is useless, and can only provide coordinates.

No one thought that things would develop like this, originally they wanted to secretly engage in their own small construction, but now it has become a big project!

Interestingly, they didn't come to explore beforehand, but they just knew about some of the situation, and it was really a project that started as soon as their heads were hot.

However, they are confident, even if they only know the Jianan Plain, they are the people with the most detailed information in this time and space.

Jianan Plain, based on the data and coordinates of the world, it starts from Changhua in the north, reaches Kaohsiung in the south, is in the shape of jujube kernel, 180 kilometers long from north to south, 43 kilometers wide from east to west, with an area of 4,550 square kilometers, and the altitude is less than l00 meters, which is the largest plain in the island.

The interior of the plain is open, densely populated, interlaced with streams and canals, dense rice fields, and developed transportation, and is an agricultural area rich in products, accounting for 40% of the whole island's cultivated area.

Such a large plain is truly a treasure among treasures for an island that hangs lonely in the sea and is surrounded by mountains.

Of course, these are the conditions of that world, but for them, as long as they develop this place by a tenth and feed two million people, it is not a problem at all.

They don't want to choose the best of the best, there is only one standard, as long as they find an estuary with a width of more than 100 meters between the latitude of 24 degrees 04 minutes north of Changhua and the latitude of 22 degrees 42 north of Kaohsiung, and plug it in, and they will do it directly!

On this day, they arrived at the place where it should be Tainan's Anping Port in that world, but there is no natural harbor formed by the natural sand bank mentioned in the information, and it seems that there is not enough time for them to be deposited slowly.

However, there have been some changes on the West Coast and more beaches are starting to get there.

Bowie was arranged to be an observer, holding a telescope on the deck to observe the changes on the shore, especially to find traces of people!

Bowie liked this, and he carried it out seriously.

This made Guo Beyu envious, and he wanted it too, so the two took turns to observe.

But I didn't see anything.

There were yellowish places and blackened beaches in others, and not even the footprints of animals could be seen.

Further southwest, they did come across a suitable estuary!

This was the mouth of the eighth river they had encountered, and the width of the water was a hundred and fifty meters!

If you go further, you will definitely encounter it, but if you don't want to, just use it as a starting point!

The river here attracts them.

The water of the Badao River is exceptionally clear, and it can be seen that there has been no rain in its upper reaches.

Moreover, from October to March, the Jianan Plain is in the dry season, and some small streams dry up on their own.

However, the Badao River has abundant water, which means that it has many tributaries in the middle and upper reaches.

The place where the estuary meets the sea, on both sides of which is a large area of golden sand, must have been alluvial during the rainy season, and the coastal mangroves have not had time to encroach on the area, and the sedimentation time is not very long.

The time they arrived here was eight o'clock in the morning.

The six space-time smugglers brought back their binoculars and looked at the situation on the shore.

It is still within the scope of the Jianan Plain, and you can see mountains in the distance, but the distance is at least ten kilometers or more, and the rest is an endless field of weeds and miscellaneous trees!

At this time, the half-yellow, half-green reeds on both sides of the river swayed in the wind, and it seemed that they could be heard rustling in the sound of the waves crashing against the reef on the shore.

There's only one place where people don't feel good.

There seem to be more fringing reefs in this place.

"This is a feature of the coast of the Jianan Plain, there are more reefs on the shore, and we are lucky enough that there have been no incidents of hitting the reef so far------," Wanshida said.

Wang Defa said: "There is a disadvantage and a benefit, these shore reefs, we can just use, look at the color, most of them are limestone, when the time comes, burnt lime or cement, are ready-made materials!" ”

Everyone is happy again.

Yes, the place where they planned to burn cement and white ash should be in the Kaohsiung region of the original world, which is the main production area of this limestone.

But you might as well borrow it first.

Everyone decided to choose this place.

That's it!

They first let a small boat go down and measure the depth of the water.

Captain Cai Erlang lowered a small boat, and several sailors jumped on it and rowed desperately towards the mouth of the river, but fortunately, although the river was abundant, it was not turbulent.

They began to throw ropes tied with iron into the river, stirring up countless waves.

During this period, it is recorded in the data that the maximum depth of their water was about 70 zhang.

At that time, the water was so deep, it can be seen that there was already a relatively proficient deep-water bathymetry technology in the Great Song Dynasty.

A few hours later they returned, and reported the situation, and the river was more than two feet away, and there was no reef at the mouth of the river, and large boats were feasible.

Captain Cai Erlang also observed the ripples on the surface of the estuary, which did not look like a reef.

Well, all into the estuary!

All the seagoing ships began to adjust their sails, allowing the northeast monsoon to carry them into the Eight Rivers.

In the cabin, everyone asked Wanshida, who had just measured the latitude, what part of the world this corresponded to.

Wan Shida held a flashlight, pointed to the place between Tainan and Kaohsiung with his finger, and said, "This is it, there is no big river on the map." ”

Wu Dapeng said with a smile: "Okay, we didn't have it in the calendar, so let's develop in this Badaohe, which was not in the original world." ”
