Soon, the boat was surrounded by the so-called 'willow whales' or 'killer whales'. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

These huge sea creatures are not afraid of humans at all.

Even, they probed their brains to line up to the side of the ship, their mouths open, like a group of singers who were making a fuss trying to please their masters.

Clumps of fish were thrown into their mouths.

Then, something happened that Fang Sheng would never forget in his life.

These whales catch the fish with their mouths and do not swallow it immediately.

Instead, they take the fish in their mouths and sail off into the distance.

Not far away, in the azure waters, a large, three small and four fine willow whales surfaced.

These whales, who have obtained the fish, come to these whales with the meat in their mouths, and then feed the meat to them separately.

The big willow whale, in particular, received more attention and care.

Fang Sheng saw with his own eyes that there were several fine willow whales, coquettish in front of this giant beast.

It looks like a child in a Han family, doing a good thing, coquettishly and pleasing in front of his parents.

Scratching his head, Fang Sheng could only believe Zhang Rong's words.

This fine willow whale is indeed smart and filial.

And a word of filial piety is enough for them to have a gold medal for avoiding death and be loved by people.

Because, for China, a filial person or animal is definitely not a bad person/animal.

Since they are not bad, they should be allowed to live, reproduce, and receive special care.

At sea, two hours after encountering this group of fine willow whales, a trace of land finally appeared in the distant sea frontier.

In the shadows, you can see the traces of cooking smoke.

"Cheng'en Island is coming!" Zhang Rong said to Fang Sheng: "Sir, let's prepare, maybe the Northwest Governor Chen Guild will summon Mr." ”

In Zhang Rong's words, he was full of admiration and admiration for Chen Huan.

This surprised Fang Sheng.

Chen Huan? In Fang Sheng's impression, he was just a chaotic demon king who relied on his father's legacy and was lawless in Chang'an City.

But how did Fang Sheng know that now, in the entire Andong region, Chen Huan is a benchmark and a role model.

He was even touted by some literati as the embodiment of the 'Anton spirit'.

What is the 'Anton Spirit'?

It is not only a self-made man respected by the miscellaneous family, overcoming obstacles, relying on himself to achieve his career, glorifying his ancestors, and attracting the attention of the world.

To sum up, it is six words: pioneering, hard work, and enterprising.

This is very much in line with the thinking of the people and immigrants in the Andong area, and it is also in line with the demands of the Andong people in today's environment.

So once it was thrown, it was widely respected.

In particular, the sons and nephews of the princes in the feudal kingdom of Jiaen almost jumped up and talked about how they overcame all kinds of difficulties, in this strange Anton, braving the wind and snow and the severe cold, the road is blue, and the bitterness and suffering of building today's feudal country bit by bit.

This is especially true of merchants and rangers.

Every day, when I meet people, I talk about how hard I worked, how I got to where I am today, how many hardships I have endured, and how many dangers I have overcome.

And the low-class immigrants, even those 'dispatch workers', believe and believe in these statements.

Because of the miscellaneous family and the public opinion circle controlled by the miscellaneous family, they are making chicken soup for the soul all the time, and they are anesthetizing and brainwashing all the time.

In this atmosphere, Anton all over the world, whether it is an immigrant or a ranger, whether it is a liege or an official, basically believes that as long as he can work hard, be serious, down-to-earth, and have a certain adventurous spirit, he will definitely succeed and establish a warm and happy living environment for his family, wife and children.

Because, in the past few years, the miscellaneous family has boiled at least hundreds of bowls of fragrant chicken soup and successfully poured them into the people of Andong.

The skill points of feeding the people soup have almost reached the limit that the era can reach.

And among these chicken soups, the most flavorful is the myth of Chen Huan's wealth.

Anton is well known to everyone, and he is worried about Chen Huan's family history.

He was the first to open up the voyage of the Wano Islands, bringing with him the Was, which were widely welcomed everywhere.

He was the first to start a wave of whaling.

Today, in Anton, the two largest industries are whaling and gold mining.

The whaling industry has come from behind, and there is a faint momentum to catch up with and overtake the gold rush industry.

The thriving whaling industry has even led to the development of the offshore fishing industry.

Many people who don't get permission to hunt whaling start by fishing, and it turns out that the resources in the sea are really endless.

As long as it is operated properly, even if it is fishing, you can get hundreds of thousands or even millions of benefits at the age of one year!

The inshore fishing industry and the deep-sea whaling industry in the Andong region have continued to flourish.

After this year, the number of fishermen in Andong may replace the Qilu area as the area with the largest number of fishermen in the Han family.

More than 100,000 people now depend on the sea for their livelihood.

They can catch hundreds of thousands of stones of various seafood every year, and transfer a large amount of dried marine fish to the mainland.

Most of the dried fish that Fang Sheng had tasted in Chang'an in the past were harvested from the ocean by Andong fishermen.

……………………

At the same time, in the port of Incheon, the building boat that Xu Jiu and Wang Wenshu were riding slowly approached the port.

At this moment, the entire port of Incheon is singing and dancing.

The kings of several vassal kingdoms from the Joseon Kingdom, the Shinban Kingdom, and other feudal kingdoms who had been canonized by Chang'an, with their noble ministers, were respectfully lined up on both sides of the port.

Even, King Wuheng and King Xianbei also sent messengers, with a large number of gifts, quietly waiting on the side.

However, they are not the protagonists of today.

Liu Ming, the ruler of Korea, is the master of this place.

Today's Liu Ming is already a heroic young man who is nearly 20 years old, he just became a father last year, and his queen Qian gave birth to a lively and lovely little lord for him.

After becoming a father, Liu Ming's temperament began to be introverted.

He no longer needs the guidance of Han Anguo and Zhang Yu now.

After several years as the king of Korea, this prince, who was ignorant at the beginning, has now grown into a prince who wants to leave his mark on the stage of the world.

"The governor has come from afar...... hard work" Seeing Xu Jiu and Wang Wenshu get off the boat, Liu Ming took his civil and military ministers to greet him: "This gentleman has prepared a little wine in Pyongyang to wash the dust for the governor......"

Xu Jiu hurriedly stepped forward and bowed: "Don't dare!" There is a king of Lao, ......"

Then, he probed his head to look at the crowd that greeted him, and found no trace of Chen Xu and Chen Huan.

This made Xu Jiu's heart immediately chuckle and feel his scalp tingle.

He had now learned through the Di Bao along the way that before him, Li Guang, the lieutenant of Yanguo, the former Yuyang County Commander of Guangwu Hou, had arrived in Xinhua City via Liaodong County a month earlier and was officially inaugurated as the general of Huhao.

On the day of Li Guang's inauguration, Bo Shi, who had stepped down from his post as the governor of Anton's Protectorate, personally summoned the leading figures on the entire Andong ground.

Chen Xu and Chen Huan brothers personally led troops out of Xinhua City for thirty miles to greet them.

Joseon Jun and Han Wang Qizhun personally cheered for Li Guang's drumming.

Almost all the well-known rangers, powerful sons of the princes and merchants, all arrived.

Even many of the Shengban tribes, who had always been polite in the ice fields and kept their distance from the Metropolitan Protectorate, sent envoys to congratulate them.

It is said that the gifts and gifts given by the guests alone are worth more than 3,000 gold.

But today, when he arrived as the official governor, the scene was far less beautiful than Li Guang's.

The leading figure in the Andong region is a North Korean monarch Liu Ming......

This is probably because he came by sea, so Liu Ming had to bite the bullet to greet him......

As for the giants, neither the Northwest Governor Chen Huan nor the Western Governor Chen Xu came.

In the Andong region, the leaders of the largest forces did not seem to be present either.

This made Xu Jiu a little embarrassed.

Liu Ming looked at Xu Jiu, but said with a quiet smile: "Don't be careful, the governor of the west and the governor of the northwest have private matters now, and it is inconvenient to come, so I apologize to the governor......"

What else can Xu Jiu say?

I can only blame myself for not having a good reputation in the past, so all the forces in the Andong region are probably all based on the idea of watching his deeds and listening to his words.

This is also normal, Xu Jiu has been to Anton several times.

He is well aware of the personality of the people in the Andong region.

These immigrants, rangers, and merchants from all over the world are extremely confident, believing that their hands are enough to change the fate of themselves and their families.

For him, a guy who has neither political achievements nor reputation, but is just a favorite minister of the Son of Heaven, he probably has no good feelings.

In particular, in order to avoid suspicion, Xu Jiu refused Wu Bei's move to greet him, echo him, and even build momentum for him.

If there is the support and momentum of the miscellaneous family, he must be in a much better situation now.

But he also knows that if the miscellaneous family jumps out to build momentum and support for him, then it will definitely attract the attention of Confucianism and even the old Huang faction.

In the past, the miscellaneous family lived in Anton, and they could also pretend to be pigs and eat tigers.

However, with the acceleration of Anton's development and the continuous domestic sales of Anton's resources, hundreds of schools of thought have noticed Anton, and many giants have begun to shift their attention.

Only Xu Jiu knew that within this year, more than ten giants from the two major factions of Confucianism and Law would send their own disciples to Anton's 'study tour'.

It is said to be a study tour, but who knows, after the study tour, what will these people think of Anton and his miscellaneous family in Anton?

Not to mention, Xu Jiu knew that the Legalist giant, the Imperial Historian, had always been jealous of Anton's miscellaneous family, and had repeatedly made suggestions to the Son of Heaven, requesting that a Legalist or Confucian academy be set up in Anton.

In this context, how dare Xu Jiu make his relationship with the miscellaneous family public?

Isn't that equivalent to telling the world: Xu Jiu, the governor of Anton's Protectorate, came to Anton to escort the miscellaneous family?

Once something like this happens, Confucianism will inevitably divert attention.

Today's miscellaneous families do not have the strength to fight against Confucianism at the same time, or even enough to compete with any of them.

Therefore, Xu Jiu could only force a smile and said, "The two captains have a personal matter? It's okay, I'll visit you in person in a few days......"

The ministers and nobles of Chang'an next to them may still think that the Chen Xu and Chen Huan brothers are still the demon kings of the mixed world who were in Chang'an a few years ago.

However, Xu Jiu knew that these two people were now one of the biggest forces on the ground in Anton.

These two brothers-in-law of the Son of Heaven have each attracted and collected a group of noble children, bureaucrats and businessmen over the years, forming their own huge interest chains.

Judging from the information provided by Wu Xu, over the years, Chen Xu has been busy clearing all kinds of wasteland and operating a large number of plantations.

In the plantations, a variety of 'dispatch workers' are used in large quantities, and cash crops such as cotton and soybeans are mainly cultivated.

Attached to him were mainly Xianbei, Wuheng, Ding Ling and some other nobles and rangers.

They are basically stakeholders in the cotton and soybean industry chains.

Their alliance was very strong, and they met with each other often.

Last year, Chen Xu gave birth to a son, and he made a marriage contract with the daughter of King Xianbei.

This highlights the unity of the community of interests.

And Chen Huan is even worse!

Since the fourth year of Yuande, Chen Huan has been one of the largest financiers of the miscellaneous family in the Andong area.

Another comparable to him is Liu Ming, the king of North Korea.

In the past three years, the two have donated a total of more than 30 million yuan worth of materials, money, and land to the Pyongyang Academy.

In addition, Chen Huan has been ambitiously promoting the establishment of a super-large national shipyard similar to the Jiangdu Shipyard in the Andong area.

In order for the Son of Heaven to agree to this request, Chen Huan even established the 'Luban Garden' in Pyongyang and Xinhua City, and trained a large number of various shipbuilders.

I heard that now, these Lubanyuan students can get free training as long as you are willing to learn and sign a contract that you are willing to work for Chen Huan or other stakeholders for ten years.

Chen Huan is naturally surrounded by stakeholders in logging, shipbuilding, fishing, and whaling.

These people have all kinds of people.

But the solidity of the alliance far exceeds that of Chen Xu's alliance.

Xu Jiu once heard Wu being mentioned in the letter, Chen Huan is very ambitious and ambitious.

He has the ambition of 'Fusang', and wants to set sail one day, find the legendary Fusang continent, find those lost Yin Shang relics, and make contributions to the Son of Heaven, in exchange for a promise of the Son of Heaven - those who can get Fusang and restore the remnants of Yin Shang will be the king of Fusang!

It's just that Fusang's theory is ethereal, and it is not credible compared to body poison.

At least, the poison is far away, but it is a real area.

And the land of Fusang, although it has been passed down from old to old, there are gods and people living there, and there are the remnants of Yin Shang.

However, no one has ever confirmed that there is a matter of Fuso Continent.

Thinking of this, Xu Jiu hesitated.

Does Fuso really not exist?

Then why did the Son of Heaven swear that he would be there? It's just that it is tens of thousands of miles away from the land of Shenzhou, and it must cross the ocean to reach it.

In the court, there were also rumors that the Son of Heaven had a dream that a god had entered a dream by a golden crow, and informed the Son of Heaven that there were remnants of Yin Shang who had settled in the Fusang continent tens of thousands of miles away, and that they had forgotten their ancestors and inheritances, and were tattooed and drank blood.

However, when they went to Fusang, they were blessed by the Emperor of Heaven, so they planted all kinds of magical crops in the Fusang Continent, and they could have no worries about food and clothing.

If these rumors are true, the Fuso Continent does exist.

Then as long as Chen Huan finds it, the Son of Heaven will definitely fulfill his promise and be the king of Fusang!

From this point of view, Chen Huan's behavior seems to be understandable again.
