Chapter XXIII: The Beginning of the Colony

It seems to confirm the sentence: what do you want not to come, when you don't want him to come, it will always come unexpectedly. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 infoThis seems to be the most awkward scene when you are in love.

But Changsun Tang was so unlucky again.

In the face of such a huge primeval forest, everyone had no idea, and even a tree had just been cut down yesterday, and the next day the branches from the stump were already very deep.

So someone proposed to set it on fire. This proposal was quickly implemented.

Changsun Tang didn't object, and to hell with crimes such as destroying the environment with his life.

It's just a heavy rain that poured everyone's heart on this very good idea.

That night, how much the eldest grandson wished for a little rain, but there were no raindrops, and now that he doesn't need it, the rain doesn't stop.

Life is always like this, the eldest grandson thought so.

The rain had taken away the heat of the equatorial region, which was supposed to be a cause for celebration, and the heat of the past few days had made these people suffer. But it's not good after this, when the heavy rain continues for more than ten consecutive days, it's like the sky has been smashed open, and it keeps falling down.

Anything, once it's over, it's not good. It's the same with the rain, the heavy rain for more than ten days in a row makes everyone on the ship feel like they are moldy, and there is an occasional period of time when the rain stops, just like the New Year.

As the saying goes: a good start is a successful failure. However, Changsun Tang's colonial plan met such a beginning. It was a completely unexpected, unchangeable start.

Looking at the non-stop rain in the sky, Wu Yuanqing's depression was incomparable.

For Wu Yuanqing, colonization is far more motivating than Changsun Tang.

Because Changsun Tang's motivation is long-term motivation, anyway, there is time, just take your time. But Wu Yuanqing hopes to take people to Luzon to find copper mines and dig for gold now. For Wu Yuanqing, the better the wealth reading, anyway, if this martial artist wants to get a brighter future in politics, there is no hope for the time being. With wealth, according to the merits made by Li Tang when he started the incident, it is still possible to be a rich man if he wants to.

"This rain is so annoying." Wu Yuanqing said.

"I think it's good, it's a good day like this." The eldest grandson ignored Wu Yuanqing's set.

"Not to mention food, people are about to get moldy." Wu Yuanqing thought in pieces.

Changsun Tang felt that since a serious illness, his patience has improved a lot, maybe the older people get, the less things they can tempt, if a year ago, maybe he would have taken someone to venture to find a gold mine in the morning. In Saikaido, you don't just go to find salt lakes in winter.

"You're not in a hurry at all? Your two beauties are still waiting for you in Quanzhou. Wu Yuanqing mentioned this stubble, thinking that the eldest grandson would be more or less moved.

"Hey, it's okay, I know that this time will not be short, so I let them go back to Xinfeng early in the morning." The eldest grandson didn't think about it.

The two of them played chess for an afternoon, and the tea leaves were changed three times, but the rain didn't even mean a little bit. The two of them also tried this chess, Go, and backgammon several times, and even the wolf eating doll chess and animal chess played by children were several times late.

The dizzy and swollen two of them really couldn't move, so they chatted.

But it is obvious that this epiphany of the eldest grandson has developed in the direction of the immortals, and the specific manifestation is that everything is dispensable in his eyes, and I don't know if this is considered the Taoist "rule by doing nothing".

"Well, you've won, and I don't know what is going to impress you now. Say, this so-called 'colony' -- that's the word, what do you think? Wu Yuanqing had no choice but to get straight to the point.

"It's nothing, it's just a piece of land here, you look at the green all over the mountains, it's not better than the sand in the northwest." The eldest grandson didn't raise his head, and what he was holding in his hand was still the "Historical Records" that had not changed for thousands of years.

"Oh, this, it's that simple?" Wu Yuanqing didn't believe it, he didn't believe that Changsun Tang would come to this sea frontier for such a simple thing, and he didn't believe that Changsun Tang's "no profit and can't afford to be early" character would do this.

"It's as simple as that." The eldest grandson said flatly.

"Really. Are you sure? Looking at Changsun Tang's bland appearance, Wu Yuanqing was a little shaken by his original opinion of Changsun Tang: Is this Changsun Tang really such a person who specializes in benefiting people?

"But isn't this a bit too much of a hassle?" Wu Yuanqing still didn't believe it, but just now Changsun Tang didn't even look at him.

"Draw a circle, plant a flag in the circle, this place is yours, is it troublesome?" The eldest grandson was a little speechless.

"Here, it's really a hassle. For example, when we first came here, the trees that were cut down the day before were all one person tall when they re-grew on the stump the next day. Wu Yuanqing's words are naturally exaggerated, but some vines and plants are really similar to this.

"It's not as exaggerated as you say, it's just a few more leveling, and don't you think the air smells good?" Changsun Yu said.

"All I could smell was mold." As soon as these words were finished, the daily routine chatter between Eldest Sun Tang and Wu Yuanqing came to an end.

Not for any other reason, but it's time for dinner. It also means the end of another day.

Since arriving on the ship, the crew, whether it is sailors, marines or support personnel, has eaten three meals a day, and they eat with their bellies open. And almost every meal has meat, which is all natural wild and organic food.

As a collective, it is impossible for Changsun Tang to let them be idle for a long time. It's just that the eight-hour shift system has been replaced by a four-hour shift, and it is divided into two sections. As for the marines, it was even more difficult, and everyone would go hunting and training in the rain every day.

The flotilla docked in a river bay, which was an ideal foraging ground for fish, and several large traps were designed to ensure that the meat was basically guaranteed every day.

It's just that in this weather, don't think about fruits, although Changsun Tang knows that fruits are abundant here, but he can't brave the heavy rain to go up the trees to pick them.

Such days seem to have no end, and the personnel under this hand have begun to relax to varying degrees. As long as it is a normal human being, it will be relaxed.

The eldest grandson turned a blind eye to this, because the rainy season that was coming to an end would keep them busy. (To be continued.) )
