Chapter 898: Dongzhou Land is in sight
Ye Qing sat down and raised his hands to support him: "Everyone, please get up ......"
The masters of the Immortal Gate, the heads of the clans, and the envoys of several Qingmai Prefecture Marquis along the coast also took advantage of the situation, and they were all relieved in an instant.
“...... I came here just to make a front stop for the army, to see the real situation in Dongzhou, and I should have your strong support. Ye Qing smiled and said modestly, but his words were very direct.
Hearing this, everyone glanced at each other, and their divine consciousness fluctuated a lot, and they all secretly exchanged opinions.
After the shock, the habits that these people developed in the Eastern Wilderness suddenly showed something in common - when a banner comes to worship and salute, it does not mean that they kneel now, it is not the deity who comes, they always have to see what requirements this doppelganger has, if it is reasonable, it will be given, and if it is unreasonable...... I can only shirk it.
Who is called the incarnation of the Qi refining layer?
No one responded to Ye Qing enthusiastically, and the Elder of the Aoki Sect, who was temporarily presiding over the meeting, looked a little embarrassed, he knew what his colleagues were, and interrupted this naked exchange with a light cough: "Everyone, the matter has been made clear, Ye Zhenjun has come in advance with sincerity, and the time to show your sincerity has arrived...... Li Niang presented the chart. ”
"Yes. ”
The girl stepped forward and stepped back, no one paying attention to her, her eyes were focused on the chart in the middle of the table, showing the vast sea area between the coast and Dongzhou, including the island-shaped shì and the land area that Dongzhou had explored.
Although it was predetermined, there are still many people who have pain in their hearts when it comes to the end.
Ye Qing glanced at it, he couldn't cultivate, his divine sense was at the level of an immortal, and he could see everyone's thoughts, and he was quite interesting and said to Li Niang: "In addition to being bad tempered and obeying the strong, is there still stinginess......?"
Li Niang's face was a little red, she bit her red lip lightly, and secretly said a few words to the elders in the door, and finally did not forget to advise: "...... Don't let Mid-Levels Island take the lead. ”
These words hit the bull's-eye, and the elder's face twitched slightly, and he said, "I, the Aoki Sect, take the lead, and I am willing to go out of Hope Port and the surrounding towns and villages, with a population of 150,000. ”
Hearing such conditions, it was obvious that the price was temporarily doubled, and everyone's faces changed.
Although it was confirmed that it was not the closest to the route to Nha Island, and the strategic position was ceded to Aoki Port, it was colonized for a long time due to its early discovery, and its population ranked among the top 10 ports in the crescent-shaped colonial area on the west side of Dongju...... The most valuable thing in Dongzhou is not the resources but the population, and the port itself is a deep-water harbor with sea route security, which is really hemorrhaging.
Under this kind of change, many people will look to Hua Yu Zhenren, Banshan Island and Nha State Island dominate the two sea routes in the north and south respectively, and there has always been zài competition, and his choice will determine whether to follow up or not.
Ye Qing asked Liniang to mark the port on the chart, listened attentively to her explanation of the local resources, and showed a satisfied look from time to time...... In fact, he doesn't care much about the population, as long as the location is good, it doesn't prevent him from thanking for the kindness of the Aoki Sect.
Seeing this, Hua Yu Zhenren was silent for a while, thinking that he did not have the old accumulated advantages of the Aoki Sect, and it was impossible for him to give up his only important port, and he had to bite the bullet under the attention of everyone: "I am willing to offer Xiangquan City on Banshan Island, although it is not as convenient as the port inland, it is also a commercial center with few unblocked roads, including towns and villages, with a population of 170,000!"
Spit out the last word, the wood has become a boat, he relented and quickly relaxed, his eyes looked at Ye Qing, and he paid attention to Aoki Zong's face.
Ye Qing nodded slightly, and could see that as soon as the other party's words came out, half of the red gas was lost in an instant, which always showed satisfaction.
This time, the shape on the field is clear, although each family does not have the big money of these two, they have a little something, if it is a port, if it is a territory, if it is a resource, if it is manpower.
The envoys of the four or five Qingmai Prefecture Marquis on the coast of the mainland said that they had just started, and they had not yet established a few colonial bases in Dongzhou, but they could help Ye Qing absorb the displaced people on the mainland...... They probably thought that Ye Qing asked Cai Chao to blockade him, and proposing this condition was a relief in disguise.
Ye Qing responded with a smile, this is the kindness of the same vein, and the more the population, the better......
To be honest, looking at the little support of these colleagues, it may not be as good as the three counties of Yingzhou promised by the Cai Dynasty in the end, but it is really giving, not the so-called fifteen-year lease.
This kind of generosity can never be experienced in the interior.
was both stingy and gritted his teeth to support, Ye Qing felt a heavy sense of mission more and more.
As soon as you say a word, the atmosphere on the field gradually rises, and the charts are colored one by one in the girl's hands, and finally a series of scattered territories are presented, and she hands a list of records of resources and support such as manpower and homeless people.
Ye Qing put away the list and looked at the overall crescent-shaped colonial area on the map and groaned.
A total of three ports were given, as well as a large city inland, and a town close to the frontier of pioneering...... The land adds up to a lot, and it is generally quite within the scope of three counties, but it has not been fully reclaimed, and it is divided, and it feels a little scattered.
Li Niang observed cautiously, and transmitted the voice: "Zhenjun, please forgive me, the colonial area is different from your Yingxiang, looking at the roughly contiguous area, in fact, it is all false, and the territories of all parties have not been completely reclaimed, and they are basically separated, divided by jungles and miasma, and hostile forces......"
"But each family basically chooses the sea and land routes for you, which is convenient for governance, and it also takes into account the population, trade, the surrounding hostile beast nests, and foreign ......."
Ye Qing bowed slightly, and glanced at some dense areas on the map, in fact, there are large territories close together, but there are not a few in total, it is estimated that it is the core territory of the various immortal sects, and it is impossible for them to let it out for nothing, this is human nature.
It seems that as the great priest said, the Eastern Wilderness only focuses on strength, and the deity comes over, or it will be directly merged under a banner, but the doppelganger comes over, there is courtesy, there is support, but it can't be compared with the deity.
Even so, the land of three counties and a population of 500,000 is already a heavy gift.
Ye Qing is not worried, it will take another month for the flying ship to be formed, and as long as there is a pen fun pavilion at present www.biquge.info it is very good.
At that moment, Ye Qing got up, saluted everyone, and said: "Thank you for your strong support, you will not regret this choice, give me three years, and you will all get rich rewards." ”
Ye Qing asked Liniang to put away this territorial division map, got up and said goodbye: "Without further ado, you can arrange for today's sailing, and I will go to the territory to have a look...... In order to reduce the possibility of leakage for confidentiality, there is no need to send it. ”
This vigorous and resolute style made many heartache-stricken door owners look much better, and they smiled one by one: "The ship and supplies have already been prepared in advance, and you can set off when you are ordered......."
"The follow-up manpower still needs to be mobilized, but the first batch of manpower is ......"
"I wish Zhenjun success. ”
..................
It takes some time to prepare, and you need to get familiar with it when you meet for the first time, so you can sit down and have a banquet after saying no.
Ye Qing thought about it, and walked around on the way back to the port to see the customs, but he didn't pay much attention to it, several territories were not together, and it took more time to master, so he didn't have time to delay.
When you reach the dock, you can see that four more ships have gathered around the original ship, and they have begun to raise anchors and spread their sails, waiting for them to board the ship.
On the way, there was still only Liniang accompanying her as a guide, and she asked suspiciously: "It's just to contact the high-level, the winter defense conference hasn't ended yet, doesn't Zhenjun plan to participate?"
"What are you going to participate in?" Ye Qing reached out and touched her head, reacted and stopped and stopped: "This is a battle, all parties have strength, there are cards to play, I am now alone, don't stay here to show speciality, or master the territory first and then talk about other things." ”
"Oh......" Li Niang responded obediently, and was about to get on the boat, when she suddenly raised her eyebrows and stared at a boat: "Why are you?"
There were a few Taoists on the boat who were dressed in the same costume as Hua Yu's real person, and the first young man smiled and said, "No way, your boat on Nha Chau Island is broken, so you have to ask us to come over to help." ”
Seeing his triumphant, Li Niang wrinkled her nose and said, "Thank you." ”
took Ye Qing back to the boat.
Ye Qing walked into the cabin with her, and obviously felt a slightly hostile gaze locked behind her.
"Opponent?" Ye Qing noticed the relationship between the Aoki Sect and Banshan at the meeting.
"It's not hostile, the two families are a little competitive in the development of Dongzhou......" she said and paused, afraid that Ye Qing would be worried about being affected, so she thought about it and said: "He came to me, two years ago, the beast tide saved this person once, so he got entangled, shouting to repay the favor, I don't know what he thinks?"
"My Fair Lady, good gentleman. Ye Qing laughed, understanding the source of the other party's hostility just now, but he dared to incarnate like this to Zhenjun, and he was not small.
"What a lady I'm in. Li Niang was a little embarrassed: "If it weren't for Zhenjun's presence, I would have beaten this disciple once I saw him on weekdays, but I had no choice but not to be ruthless in the same vein, and the other party was still entangled after the fight, and I couldn't shake it off like kraft candy." ”
"Maybe people are really sincere?" Ye Qing felt that the scene of violent lessons was too beautiful to bear.
"That's not the case, you don't know, Zhenjun...... In the previous generation of the door, there was a Yin God uncle who let the young master of the sect abduct and form a Taoist couple, she was originally the hope star in the door, and forming a Taoist couple, it was not to break away from the sect, but there was competition, this kind of thing is always a little ...... for women Effect. ”
"Later, Uncle Shi didn't do very well, Yu Yu went down to cultivate for a pause, and encountered the young master's change of mind, and died in battle not long after, the two families have a lot to do with this matter, I suspect that the other side is deliberately damaging our new cutting-edge, and there is no evidence. ”
Li Niang explained briefly and concluded: "With the lesson of the previous generation, I will ignore this kind of relationship between men and women, and Taoist couples will not resonate with the benefits of the spiritual pool, what is the rarity?"
"It's not that mortal women must marry and have children to protect their old age, our monks can walk their own way, why bother to give their fate to a wild man who runs out of a wild man......"
Ye Qing touched his chin, a little unpleasant, this sounded, how could he scold himself?
......
November 19th
There was a long distance from Nha Chau Island to Dong Chau, and it was a fleet of ships that sailed smoothly for three days.
The deep blue water has turned green and shallow, and it should have entered the continental shelf, and the sailors have become more active, constantly adjusting the course of the ship to resist the inversion of the ocean currents.
"That's what I told you last time......" Liniang explained.
It was said that the sea area where the spiritual energy was gushing, and the westernmost distance from Dongzhou on the chart was less than a hundred miles, and it was two hundred miles away from the nearest port assigned to Ye Qing, which was not too far.
Ye Qing paid close attention to the observation, the temperature here is warmer, there is no snow, there is no aura on the pale green sea for the time being, and the aura is indeed rich, compared with the blessed land, the difference is that this is water rather than land.
“...... The sea is difficult to occupy on all sides, and it simply becomes a public area. Li Niang smiled and said: "In previous years, many loose sailing ships came here to drift and practice, bringing a magic circle of filtered and pure water, food as long as fishing, enough to practice for several years without getting off the boat, and spontaneously forming a sea bazaar, which can be called a scene in the East China Sea, and the little master took me here twice...... However, in recent years, astronomical tides have affected safety, and it is not as lively as it used to be. ”
Ye Qing became a little interested, and probed his divine sense into the sea, trying to search for the source of the aura.
However, the underwater divine consciousness has attenuated a lot, and it is almost the limit when it reaches three or four miles, and I don't see through it at all, I only feel that the leyline element magnetism may be somewhere sea ridge...... It is suspected that the spiritual veins under the sea are unknown.
Ye Qing marked the nautical chart, and he had time to explore it in the future, although the development value here was not much at the current level of Taoism...... But this is on the edge of the border between the East China Sea and the Black Water Ocean, and they may be interested in Storm Rain and Hatred Clouds.
A crisp birdsong made Ye Qing restrain his reverie, and raised his head The flock of birds circled not far away, the sea breeze already carried the breath of the mountains and forests, a long gray-green line spread out in the field of vision, and under the background of a few white sails, the land of Dongzhou was in sight.
