The group of three returned to the dock again, it was still lively here, Mei Siyou commanded the coolies to unload the goods with a cigarette in his mouth, and watched the sailors who got off the ship eagerly discuss the harvest, the coolies swallowed a few saliva and secretly swore that the next time they went to sea, they must follow!

After staying in Yangzhou for two days, the hawker took away the sorted harvest, told Lin Weiqin to see him in Chang'an, and then took the lead in returning to Chang'an. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

The first thing he did when he arrived in Chang'an was to find Li Er to offer treasure, and Li Er, who heard the news that the fleet was back, jumped up from the dragon chair again, "Okay, okay, come and bring the chart up for me to see"

The peddler respectfully handed the chart drawn by Lin Weiqin to Li Er, and Li Er did not shy away from hanging it directly on the top of the main hall, looking at the chart that was a little rough, but very carefully drawn, Li Er kept stroking his chin, and the ministers were also infected by this atmosphere!

There is such a big place, a lot of wealth, and some people begin to think in their hearts that if they do it well, which place Your Majesty will give to themselves!

After everyone's mood stabilized a little for a while, the hawker arched his hand towards Li Er, "Your Majesty, although the overseas places have been beaten down by Chief Liao and Zhan Guards, please ask Your Majesty to give you a charter on how to govern them, in addition, these places do not have names yet, please think of a good name for them."

Li Er nodded, "Yes, how to govern it, let's discuss it later, let's name these places first, it just so happens that everyone is here, everyone brainstorms, it's better to think about what these places are called"

Thinking that the name he gave would be passed down as a legacy in the future, the ministers on the main hall who had read more than 10,000 books couldn't hold back.

The eldest grandson Wuji took the lead in speaking, pointing to today's Singapore, "Your Majesty, I heard that Mr. Liao said that this real estate coconut, how about calling it Coconut City?" ”

Li Er didn't express his position, and Fang Xuanling had a different opinion, "Lord Eldest Sun, I'm afraid the name of Coconut City is a bit too vulgar, in this way, since this place is the first place to be discovered by Datang and incorporated into Datang, it is better to call it Singapore [Po'er: equal to place, dialect], what do you think?" “

The eldest grandson Wuji thought for a while, "It's okay, then let's call this place Coconut City, I heard that this place also produces coconuts, right, national teacher?" ”

Looking at the Philippines of the eldest grandson Wuji's finger, the peddler covered his face, and a good place was given such a vulgar name, but fortunately, it was better than the Philippines to listen to the smooth "What the eldest grandson said is very true"

The eldest grandson Wuji looked at him, "It seems that the old man's memory is okay, haha"

Everyone "want to face hey...."

After the name of the Philippines was changed, Indonesia, Dead Block, and New Guinea were all not spared, and they were all dressed up with names with local characteristics of the Tang Dynasty!

In the end, everyone's eyes fell on today's Australia, Li Er smacked his mouth, "Amazing, amazing, there is such a big piece of land, how much will it cost if it is sold, hey, by the way, Dabao, can you help me sell it?" ”

The peddler bared his teeth, "I don't have the ability to sell this, and I don't think anyone has the strength to eat such a large piece of land"

Everyone thought about it, even if this land was sold for 20 wen per acre, all the money in Datang would not be able to buy it!

Li Er shook his head, "It's a pity, I can't eat it, I'm depressed."

The peddler hurriedly comforted, "Your Majesty, don't be a pity, such a big place, you can't run there, besides, there is no one hundred and eighty years old, and ordinary people really can't tame such a big place"

Everyone nodded in unison, as if there was a lot of meat, but the body of his snake was a little small, Li Er looked at Australia and felt distressed for a long time, "Forget it, don't worry about it for now, let's think of a name for him first, what do you think is such a big place to call it?"

Everyone began to think about it, this piece of land is too big, and it is not something that ordinary names can afford, and they thought about all the similar names they had seen in their minds, and everyone couldn't negotiate a name that everyone agreed on!

In the end, Li Er threw the burden to the peddler, "Since it is the place where the people of your Daomen found it, then this naming right will be handed over to you, it doesn't sound good, others laugh at it, don't blame me"

"Then I can get up" In fact, the hawker has already thought about what the name of this place is, but he is afraid that everyone will oppose it if he says it, and this name is indeed not related to any ancient books, legends, or eight poles, and the original meaning in Chinese is that there is no inheritance and provenance!

Li Er waved his hand, "It's okay, just say it"

"Well, in fact, according to our habit, if a strange place is first discovered by someone, that place is named after the person who found it, and I will name this continent with this habit now"

Xiao Yu spoke: "Are you going to call him Lin Wei Qinzhou?" This is also a mouth."

"It's just, one for another"

Li Er was also helpless, "Dabao should be replaced by another one"

The peddler shook his head, "You guys are wrong, Lin Weiqinzhou is indeed a pass, and I can't get used to it, so I suggest that this continent be called Linzhou, what do you think?" ”

"Linzhou?" Everyone began to taste the name, Li Er lowered his head and asked Xiao Yu, "Is there a place with the same name in Datang?" ”

This was heard by the hawker, "It's okay, although even if there is a place called Linzhou in Datang, but we use three points of water in this Linzhou continent, can't we just use it to distinguish it?"

As soon as the hawker explained this, everyone understood, and Li Er clapped his head, "Then let's do it, since the national teacher said it, let's call it Lin Zhou, by the way, the national teacher just used the name of the discoverer to name the newly discovered place is good, and it will become a rule in the future, of course, if you encounter a surname that has been repeated before, you can't name it, then the discoverer chooses a name that he thinks is good, what do you think?" “

It doesn't matter if everyone thinks about it, "but it depends on His Majesty's arrangement"

"Okay, I'll draft a copy of the decree in a while, pass it on, and the new overseas territories will be based on this method in the future" So, Datang added countless overseas territories with Datang characteristics in the following years, such as Wang Zhou, Zhao Zhou, Song Zhou, which are the places where Datang belongs at a glance, of course, these are more smooth, and there are some more awkward ones, such as Changsun Strait, Ouyang Island, Wan Qijiao, these are a little funny!

After getting the naming of the new overseas land, everyone shifted their goals again, Li Er looked at the vendor and rubbed his hands very clearly, "Okay, there is nothing else to do now, national teacher, take out the harvest this time, and surprise everyone"

"Okay" The vendor took out the list that Mei Siyou handed over to him from the ring, this time he didn't dare to show the treasure directly, opened the list and read it to everyone, "This list is up to the fleet's marching food, a total of 10,000 catties of jewelry, more than 2,000 ivory, more than 1,000 rhino horns, 10,000 pearls, 20,000 taels of gold, 1 million taels of silver, 1 million catties of copper, and the rest of the treasures are not counted, roughly equivalent to more than 30 million copper coins."

Wow! As soon as the hawker finished counting the harvest, the whole hall burst into applause, and Li Er kept clapping his hands, "Okay, good, but this harvest seems to be more than last time, Dabao knows the reason?" ”

The peddler glanced at Li Er, this big-tailed wolf pretended, last time there were few people to explore the way, which is equivalent to clearing the wasteland, this time it is different, you have sent a fleet of nearly 1,000 ships of all sizes, and you have the idea of fighting and robbing, and you should lose your temper if you have less harvest!

The peddler didn't say this reason, but just glanced at Li Er, and Li Er suddenly realized that he laughed very evilly, "It's really fun to do this"

Everyone also figured out what was going on, and they were all ready to move in private, and the vendor handed over the list to Li Er, and arched his hand again, "In addition, Chief Liao did not come back, but President Tomei and others brought back 20 pairs of elephants, rhinoceros, tigers, crocodiles and other overseas wild animals, and in addition, Daoist Lin Weiqin contributed 20 pairs of kangaroos, 20 pairs of emus, and some other rare species in the open sea, dedicated to Your Majesty."

Li Er applauded again, "Okay, I have a heart, I ordered to go down, all those who go to sea this time will be rewarded, and when they come back, they will be cashed out immediately."

Everyone gave up their hands "Your Majesty's benevolence" (to be continued.) )
