Goa has a tropical monsoon climate and its latitude is lower than that of Hainan Island. To put it simply, it is hot all year round, only in winter it is about 20 degrees, which is more comfortable. When Flat Fur flew back from Tianjin in a biplane, the time was at the end of the monsoon at the end of September, and the weather was slightly cooler.

As agreed, the biplane landed on a marked uninhabited field south of Goa City. When Xu Bing jumped out of the cabin, he immediately raised his hand to build an eye canopy to block the still scorching sun. Flatfur flew out of the cockpit and shouted happily: "Miss, the most loyal Flatfur is back." ”

Zhou Qingfeng stepped forward with a big parasol and said with a smile: "Beautiful lady, welcome to Goa, India." This wild land is waiting for us to develop. This is like the landing of human beings on the moon, although it is only a small step for you, it is a big step for the Chinese nation. ”

Xu Bing laughed at the amusement, and reached out to punch Zhou Qingfeng a few times. Zhou Qingfeng put away the biplane, introduced Marcello and Santos to her, and led her to a carriage with a handrail. Both of the foreign servants were shocked by the plane falling from the sky, and they realized that their master had such magical powers.

Xu Bing was wearing a light and cool gauze dress, lamenting the hot and humid temperature of Goa, and laughing at the parasol that Zhou Qingfeng had just put away, "Where did you get such a parasol?" ”

"I made it myself. Goa is a place where the light and heat are so strong, and the precipitation is abundant, so farming is excellent, but I really can't take my parasols wherever I go. No matter how strong my ability is, I can't do anything about this sunshine. Zhou Qingfeng put away the parasol and threw it behind the carriage. Marcelo drove the two to the convent in a trance.

"I want to visit Goa first." Xu Bing waved his hand in the carriage and fanned the wind, and Zhou Qingfeng immediately released the cold air to cool down the temperature in the carriage. After a long trip, she smiled and said, "You have never been so caring in the past, have you done something bad, for fear of being blamed by me?" I guess I bought too many female slaves, and by the way, the guards stole and stole from themselves? ”

"Am I not showing my mistakes? Otherwise, if I make a fool of myself and leave the island of time and space, I won't need to let you go all the way to this trip. Zhou Qingfeng immediately cried out, "I only thought of making good use of the training ability of the Cave Heaven Blessed Land, but I didn't expect that I would also need to use its storage capacity on this long trip." ”

Xu Bing smiled: "I think this is very good." In just about ten days, we quickly trained more than 100 junior high school students. The training efficiency of the cave is very high, and I myself went in for a few days of study. Nourished by rich spiritual power, the brain is very flexible.

Among other things, the newly trained junior high school students write better handwriting than elementary school students. I put them into the administration department for an internship, and the efficiency of the whole department has increased. As long as I continue to train, when I have 1,000 high school students, the efficiency and control ability of the administration department can be increased several times, and I can control a larger population and territory. ”

Zhou Qingfeng suddenly smiled bitterly, he immediately knew that Xu Bing had used his power to modify the distribution of training personnel, or under the banner of improving his administrative management ability. But who allowed the vital administration of the 'revolutionary army' to be filled with a large number of schoolchildren? Improving the professional quality of the contingent of cadres is a prerequisite for the next step in the country.

Zhou Qingfeng nodded, acquiescing to this adjustment. Xu Bing immediately smiled charmingly, stretched out his hand to shave his face, and said, "Count you well, I will allow you to buy a few more beautiful female slaves." This time I came to India, which can be regarded as a vacation for me. In the past two years, I have also been tired to death. ”

The carriage was borrowed by an Arab businessman, and Xu Bing opened the window and looked out, enjoying this exotic scenery all the way. Goa is currently home to more than 300,000 people, and the city is mainly a gathering place for European colonizers, religious people, and merchants.

Although the city is small, it is full of churches large and small. Zhou Qingfeng pointed to the spire with a huge hanging bell in the distance and introduced: "That is the golden bell of Santa Catarina Church, which rings regularly every day. It is said to be the largest Catholic cathedral in the East. ”

"I felt a great force enveloping it." Xu Bing watched from inside the car, "The letter you wrote said that you must stop the expansion of Westerners in the East, that is, to stop this force?" ”

Zhou Qingfeng nodded, and he pointed in another direction, "That's the arch of the governor of Portuguese India, the granite lintel, and the basalt stone pillar." All the sailors who come to Goa pass under the arch. The arch originally belonged to a man named Adi. The native king of Saha. But he was defeated by the Portuguese and driven away, and even the royal palace became the governor's palace. ”

The horse-drawn carriage drove slowly through the streets of the city, and if he only looked at the buildings and trees on the road twice, Xu Bing would think that he had come to a tourist attraction with a deep history in a foreign country. In fact, these were the only two Portuguese trading posts in the East before the end of the day.

Zhou Qingfeng continued in the car: "I hope to bring in enough goods, one for horses and the other for slaves. I am going to build a new city in Panjim, seven kilometres to the west, and use it as a base to fight the Portuguese, forcing them to accept our presence and become our trading agent.

As long as we have a foothold in Goa, we sell goods such as silk and porcelain at lower prices. For example, the price of raw silk in Macao is 80 taels and in Goa it is 150 taels 1. We could have sold it in Goa for one hundred and twenty or even one hundred and twenty quintals.

This would increase the profits of both sides, make money for the European colonists, and make it unprofitable for them to find themselves shopping in the Far East. Over time, their trade network in Southeast Asia will naturally shrink. If we hold out for more than ten years, the route that the enemy has spent more than 100 years building will disappear, and we will be able to win without a fight. ”

Any long-term foreign strategy plan needs to be driven by enough profits, and when European merchants find that they can get cheaper goods in Goa, they will travel another 10,000 kilometers by sea to Southeast Asia to buy goods? This is Zhou Qingfeng's use of the logistics advantages of his own space-time island to reduce the dimensionality of them.

"You've already determined the location of your base in Goa?"

"That's right, I spent three days looking for a place with plenty of water, flat terrain, close to the port, and easy to defend. But you've been flying all the way for two days, so rest first and go back tomorrow. ”

"No, go now. I have a surprise for you. ”

Zhou Qingfeng was puzzled by Xu Bing's smiling words, but he really wanted to see what surprises there would be. He told Marcelo to redirect to Panjim, and it took nearly an hour for the carriage to arrive – a wasteland near the mouth of the Mandolfi River, through which ships heading for Goa City had to pass.

Uncle Zhou said with a very gloomy smile: "As long as I build a city here and build a few forts on the riverbank, the passage of Portuguese cargo ships will depend on my face." If I'm not happy, they don't want to do business anymore. ”

"You've made up your mind to fight the Portuguese here." Xu Bing looked around at the place Zhou Qingfeng had chosen. There are ashes left over from the just burned grass and trees on the ground, and the crazy tropical plants and mosquitoes hiding in them have been cleaned up, and only Zhou Qingfeng, who has mastered the true essence of the fire system, can do this.

"The colonizers of Europe have never been good people, and instead of letting them spoil the land, let us transform it. If we don't fight, others won't recognize our status. But Zhou Qingfeng still scratched his head, "I'm worried that before I build the city, the enemy will come over." ”

"I'm here to solve your problem." Xu Bing said with a smile. She opened the space-time door that Zhou Qingfeng had transferred to bind to her, and a series of people walked out of the void nebula one after another. Several traversers appeared one by one, followed by Wen Ruolan, He Zhuo, Ye Na, and even the two phoenixes and Jia Gang ran out. In the end, even Xu Xiake came to do chores.

"You ......." Zhou Qingfeng screamed in shock, "Why did you all run over?" Don't you want your hometown? ”

Zhao Ze, who ran out, shouted loudly: "We are worried that you will steal and swallow all the Yanmar alone." ”

Shi Dongxing rushed over and asked, "Flat hair said that you bought a Persian dancer who can dance ** in particular?" ”

Yin Hu flattered Zhou Qingfeng and pinched his shoulder, "Brother, you have worked hard." It is said that you also bought a lot of little loli. This important task of disseminating the culture of the motherland must be grasped from an early age, and I, as the Minister of Education, have an unshirkable responsibility. ”

"You scumbags ......." Zhou Qingfeng covered his face, wanting to say that he didn't know these bad friends at all.

Xu Xiake came up and asked, "Dashuai, this is the Tianzhu recorded by the high monk Xuanzang in the "Records of the Western Regions of the Tang Dynasty"?" It's so hot in here. ”

A group of people were bustling around the wasteland and the estuary of the riverbank. They even studied around Marcelo and Santos, who were completely stupid, and were shocked when they heard that the two could speak Chinese.

Only Zhou Qingfeng shouted frantically: "What are you guys doing?" Don't you want your hometown, do you all come to travel? If something happens to the family, won't it cause chaos in the world? ”

Xu Bing smiled and pointed to the space-time gate, "You can go in and see why we are going out collectively." ”

Zhou Qingfeng hurriedly rushed into the space-time gate and wanted to know what the hell his companions were doing? The child Santos cautiously approached Xu Bing in astonishment and asked, "Honorable madam, can you tell me who Mr. Zhou is?" ”

"You're Santos, aren't you? Nice to meet you. Xu Bing took the initiative to reach out and pat the child's head, and said with a smile: "Don't be nervous, we are not bad people." As for the guy you asked, he's about to become ....... After a pause, she said, "You should make him the emperor of China." He will soon rule over a country with a population of hundreds of millions and an area the size of all of Europe. ”

"Oh...... O Virgin Mary!" Father Marcelo faltered when he heard this, and he shouted sluggishly: "Hundreds of millions of people, comparable to the emperor of the whole of Europe? I have the privilege of serving such a noble person,......。 ”

With a thud, Father Marcelo fainted.

Santos is still young and doesn't quite understand how high Zhou Qingfeng's status is. But he immediately crawled on his knees, threw himself at Xu Bing's feet, held her upper and kissed him: "Beautiful lady, you must be Your Royal Highness the Queen." Allow me to extend my most respectful greetings to you. ”

Xu Bing loved to hear this, and a bright smile appeared on his face.

And in the next second, Zhou Qingfeng, who had just rushed into the space-time gate, rushed back in a hurry, and shouted loudly in an even more frantic manner: "What the hell are you doing, you actually used the space-time island to move a city!" ”
